Magi Craft Meister

Full talks finally begin in the 'meeting room'.

… before,

"Go ahead."

The samurai handed out tea around in front of all of them.

"Uhm. Good luck"

The king labored the maid (onions) and sipped a sip of tea.

Almost at the same time, Chancellor Bayaks Gear and Foreign Minister Ben Lutraga also spoke.

"Drink them too."

And I would recommend it to a single line of Gaju Tsuga.

"Yes, I'll take it"

Gaju Tsuga and others also mouth.

"Delicious tea."

"... would it be?

The king nodded loudly.

Gaju Tsuga sees Manon on the side. She gently meditated on her left eye.

This is an arranged signal that there is nothing medicinal in the tea.

"Well, you didn't come here for tea. … Chancellor, you will act as a facilitator."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I accept."

Kohon, and deliberately one cough, Chancellor Bayaks Gear opened his mouth again.

"I would now like to begin a meeting with the Friendly Embassy from 'Avalon' and the heads of State of the Principality of Jags"

The Duke of Jags snorted silently.

"Then first state what you want from our country, on the 'Avalon' side"

Gaju Tsuga had some interesting thoughts about whether the Principality of Jags would meet in this format, but now it's time to focus on the talks and one cough with Cohon in imitation of the Prime Minister.

"Then I, Gaju Tsuga, would like to talk to you. … yes, the philosophy of 'Avalon' is' world peace '"

The duke king who heard that was silent, but, um, he seemed to laugh with his nose.

"At the same time, we have goals such as' coexistence and co-prosperity 'and' mutual assistance ', depending on what you ask us as part of that."

"Well, that's your philosophy."

said the Duke with a cold laugh.

"The ideal is fine. But reality doesn't. Peace? What is peace? As long as there are two or more humans, you must start. There can't be a world without contention."

The King continues.

"So what they're saying sounds like bullshit."

But Gaju Tsuga didn't shut up either.

"Maybe you're right. Humans can't stop fighting, it's probably called 'business'. But you can work towards your goals. And it's that effort that's honorable."

"Hmm, that's beautiful."

Even then, the Duke laughed with his nose.

"Conflict.... We don't have a standout dispute in our country, do we? Peace itself. There is no dispute in our country, no dissatisfied elements."

"… but there seems to be a dispute with the neighbouring Duchy of Norha?

When Gaju Tsuga pointed that out, the Duke grinned.

"Except at home and abroad. The rest are obliged to protect, maintain and develop the country and the people"

From what I've heard, it seems to be the best, Gaju Tsuga thought.

"You said it was a development? Unfortunately, we find it difficult to develop in closed countries, don't we?

"What?"

"There's something like this in the words left over by those called 'Wise Men (Mags)'." If the three of you come by, the wisdom of literature ". … literature is called the God of knowledge and wisdom"

In fact, literary bodhisattva is not a god but a Buddha, but there is no concept of 'Buddha' in this world, so it is supposed to be 'God'.

"This will mean that if people get together and come out with wisdom, they can be elevated to better wisdom. In other words, people can look higher by working together."

But the Duke expressed more interest in certain words than in the content of the story.

"Well, Sage." I've heard the name before. I want you to tell me what he was like. "

Apparently, the Duchy of Jags also tells the story of 'Wise Men (Mags)', Tsuga thought.

Therefore, "Sage (Magus)" will be scratched and explained.

"I see, it's certainly a worthy man to be called the Wise Man."

I say it with a face that the Chancellor was impressed with. After all, 'Sage (Magus)' seems to be a respected being in this country as well.

"But is it a good thing that life gets richer?

The King has a negative tone.

"With matter, we can make the difference between rich and poor. Humans try to enrich their lives, while others try to kick them down."

"... Your Majesty's thoughts resemble those of the Magic League"

It is Gaju Tsuga who wanted to know how he would react to this word.

"Hmm," Magic League "? I've heard of it. You think they're similar to the rest of the idea?

"Yes. The 'Magic Coalition' denied material civilization and was aiming for spiritual evolution. But humans, living things, are tied to matter. Therefore, we could not discard the substance."

"... well, is that how it ended? Interesting."

And, turning back such exchanges and pinching lunch along the way, the talks continued with a tense air.

In Penglai, Mr. Lao was analyzing information from Manon as he monitored the talks.

"So far you don't seem to be making a move to brainwash a line of gaju tsuga"

What I care about is that.

Old man, according to your analysis, it was presumed that merchants from all countries were obviously trading out of tune because, for one thing, they were doing light brainwashing.

but this has yet to be backed up.

"Hmm, because of the many people from Mitsuho and Fuso, the name of 'Sage (Magus)' seems to be widely known."

The unexpected thing, however, was to say, 'Because there is substance, we can make the difference between rich and poor' and so on.

"But I don't think I made contact with the Magic League."

It was so far unclear where that idea of the Duke came from.

"You're still wearing cats, the King, the Chancellor and the Foreign Minister."

Compared to the other three principalities, it is your assessment that they are quite difficult to do.

"Hard to do," of course, old man, not gaju tsuga line, is.

Gaju Tsuga also felt inside that the faces of the Duchy of Jags did not tell the truth.

"Avalon" presents and demands two things: desirable and undesirable for the Principality of Jags.

What is desirable is technical provision, what is undesirable is war renunciation.

The Principality of Jags cannot offer any further conditions than it does not know what it is aiming for.

Here Gaju Tsuga decided to cut one trump card.

"Are you interested outside the country?

"... what?

"No, you said you were interested in exploring abroad."

"... what if I say I do?

"Let's talk about it," he said.

It was the beginning of the second round of talks.
