Isekai Taneuma

As a countermeasure to the influx of refugees from the eastern border and the accompanying outflow of bandits, Feng wanted to take advantage of the Adventurer Alliance.He tried to do it immediately, but after Terry pointed it out, he reconsidered that he had to get the consent of the Eastern nobles first.

"Huh? Call Claire, huh?

To persuade him, Feng, who returned hastily from the east, decided to call Claire, the leader of the eastern nobility, first.The priests rounded their eyes at first, but as soon as they explained the situation,

"Well, the war with the Empire lasted a hundred years.I know you've been subjected to a lot of border violations.Even though I knew it, I couldn't do anything.... "

The two priests lost sight of him as if he were evil.I wonder if you have any feelings of resentment in that state.Anyway, I can't help pointing three men at each other like they did all night.Calling Claire, she flew in about five seconds.

"I'm glad you're in the mood for Ser Hermes!

It was really fast enough to say where you were.Maybe Feng was sticking somewhere in the government building until he met me.I wonder if she wants to be Lord Hermes more than anything else, even if she doesn't have to.

Anyway, Feng thought it would be easier to persuade me in this state.

"... what? Orpheus, you're telling me to open the border...?

"To put it lightly, yes.Many refugees from Orpheus have already entered our territory.With that, bandits have emerged, and it was decided that it would be better to open the border and accept the refugees quickly and give them a job than to seal it off. "

"What are you saying?Isn't that all you have to do to get rid of me in the army?What's the Hermes army for?

"As a result of that, the Hermes and the Imperial Army are now watching at the border.The Imperial side said the army couldn't watch the boulders wandering around the border, so we had to disband immediately.... "

If so, why don't you just tighten it up with me?The Imperial Army isn't an enemy anymore, is it?When it comes to the original, it's a bad place, and it solves unnecessary misunderstandings.We will then have the Orpheus people who are hiding in our territory brought back. "

Claire said the same thing about Terry.Until now, Feng had agreed with everything Claire had done, as if there were no islands to attach, and Feng was confused and remembered Terry's words, which he said were unreasonable.

The nobles of the east, who have border problems, have been plagued by attacks from Orpheus territory for centuries.If they ask you to accept it all of a sudden, it may be impossible for them to consult.But Feng still couldn't give up.

"Most of the refugees just starve to death in their homeland, right?Don't you think it's bad for the boulder to wake up? "

But she made it clear.

"No, I don't.I mean, they didn't help us when we were in trouble.Who among our people has fled to Orpheus?There's not one of them.Because if you cross the border, they'll kill you without asking questions.And now that we're in trouble, it's too good for any bug to help us.This is not an old story.It was only about a year ago.

"That's because... we were at war, and we were enemies, right?Now that they're at peace, I'm sure they'll help. "

"No, Ser Hermes, that's impossible."

And Claire told her to throw up with a thorny expression like she'd never seen before.

"Our people have been threatened by border violations from there for 300 years.They target the harvest season and expose women like livestock.And I can't do anything from here.Because of the borders, the central government is no match.They lived in fear of bandits who might attack them at any moment, moving around the territory.With so much land, the city can only be built dozens of kilometres away from the border.It is also a small rural village.Otherwise, you'll be targeted.Still want to accept them?The emotions that flow between us... that's not the problem anymore. "

Claire refused Feng's request more clearly than she thought.

"You're here today because you want me to persuade the border lords... I'm sorry, but this is all... I can't accept any of Lord Hermes's requests.I was really happy when I was summoned... I'm sorry.Excuse me. "

Claire said that, forcing her pure white face to stretch, she turned her heel back and left.Feng was surprised at her disgusting expression, which she had never seen before, and was unable to say anything, so she had to shut up and wait.



"... maybe I was licking her too much."

After Claire left the office, the three Feng could only remain silent without saying anything.In the awkward air, Feng said such words of reflection.

I was not equal to her since I met her.Feng was a brave man and, albeit tentatively, officially recognized by the Emperor, Sir Hermes... she was in a weak position to succeed him.I knew there was something behind that attitude, but it seemed like I had been mistaken for Max from the beginning, because he would definitely agree with me no matter what I said.

There is something I can't give her.Feng regretted that this time he did nothing to hurt her.

"So what do we do?Ser Hermes. Shouldn't we just do what she says this time?

"In fact, the problem is that it's difficult to accept refugees.Although it's good to accept, they're not necessarily familiar with the local area.Besides, which side should we take in case of trouble?If you hold back too much on one side, you will be resented by the other.If it goes bad, it could be a riot. "

With Claire's sword, it looks like the two priests have fallen asleep.Feng listened to them,

"Sure, I think that's better... but I'll just try to convince her once more.I felt like I just talked to her, and she rejected it just because of her emotions.I had a sweet feeling that she would listen to me.That's why I want to get rid of those feelings and argue with reason. "

"Is that all you need to do in this refugee reception?

"I think I do.Even if we refuse to accept it here, relations between the two countries will not deteriorate any further.It's already the worst.But it's not a problem to leave it alone forever.Now that the national transportation has been established, I will have to go out with him even if I don't want to.When the Orpheus people come in on a regular route, I think there is a difference between selling favors here and not keeping them. "

"... sure."

"Besides, I don't think it's bad for Claire either.If she is to win the Successor Race, she still needs to hasten the development of the East.We're running out of labor now because of Robert's obstruction, but if we can use the Orpheus refugees, we can fix it all at once.Besides, you can't help them with the neighborhood, can you?Including that, well, I'll try to convince you. "

"I see. Let's call Claire again."

The two priests said so and went out of the room after Claire, who had just left.

But she never came back to the office again.In the story of the chased priest, she said she didn't like it because even if she came back, it would only steam up the story now.

Claire says... honestly, if Feng still insists, he won't be able to refuse, but if he does, he will definitely be resented by the Eastern lords.They were her companions with the same hardship and her support base.She said that she couldn't betray them.

That was the ultimate reason, and if we lose the support base, it will be impossible for her to return to her successor this time.If I could be Phoenix, I wouldn't want to be Robert, but Claire... then I wouldn't be able to ask any more of you.

I wanted to talk to her again, if I could, but he decided once to give up.

However, when he gave up, Claire asked him to eat, as if he was watching the timing.I've been invited, but I've been afraid of the effects of demonization, and I've been avoiding it... I'm sure she thought she'd take the invitation now.

She seemed to say that she would listen in the meantime if she went out with me for dinner.How can I ride an invitation even though I know that I will always be seduced if I go, whether it is a boulder, a hundred fights or no graduates?

But if you miss this, you won't be able to persuade her for the rest of your life, and then you may lose your relationship with her forever.Depending on what you think, it may be your last chance to sneak Robert out of the way and give her a blow to Rise and Resurrection.

Besides, I've been feeling better since this morning because of yesterday's riot.The two priests are not harsh on each other, and so far, they are calm.In that case, isn't it bad to bet once?In the worst case scenario, just run away from her temptations....

Feng stopped thinking about it.

That's ridiculous. Why should a man think of his own chastity crisis?Feng is a brave man and possesses cheating abilities like an idiot.By contrast, Claire is just a beautiful woman.Assuming she attacked, it was her who was in danger.

When Feng reconsidered, she decided to take her invitation.He was feeling better at this time and underestimated the effects of demonization.
