The merchant town of Birdland.

Over the past few years, the land has grown and gold flows have increased before. Tragic events that still leave scars - due to the Heim war.

In proportion to the results of many of the funds invested, it now boasts a more developed picture than before.

The influence of the big country Ishtarika is also low.

Because now that Haim has become Ishtarika's autonomy, his distance from Ishtarika has become even closer.

- That Birdland has been in even more buzz over the past few months.

"The Chancellor leans on the people."

"Leaning on the people is not just in the monarch's vessel! Such a general would be the vessel that leads the country! Because when Heim attacked me, he made me brave enough not to pull a step while I was ready to die!

"You guys are wrong. A true monarch is a former chairman of commerce with deep ties to the land. Who do you think rebuilt the rock dam? Who do you think gave you the money? -"

There is only one thing that attracts the attention of the luxury merchants and bourgeoisies going to the city. It was about the ritual of selecting Rockdam's head of state, which was approaching.

There are many people in Birdland who are sensitive to the smell of gold. They want to be close to the power of the Rockdam Head of State. And the candidates for the next head of state also wanted the influence of the Birdland merchants. If they have influence, it will also lead to a rate of support, because the road to the Head of State approaches.

"You're busy."

"Yeah, it's a buzz I've had before"

An old merchant mumbled by the boulevard.

"This would also be the aftermath of Haim's decline."

"You're right. Even if they are under the asylum of Istarika, they themselves are not as influential as they were before. The only thing that has influence is Ishtarika's voice."

"Whoa, when it comes to rock dam, you think the candidate's prime minister is making a leap"

"What else? This will be our last chance to take the continent from Heim."

"You can say it's no longer collapsed, hegemony, but"

They laughed damned.

It is a well-known fact that it was now a rampage by the late King Heim, and I am not particularly willing to sell fights now that Ishtarika intervened here, but I have had an eye for Heim's behavior in the past, and now I do not hate to complain.

"But Rockdam's thoughts are strange. It is a country bordered by Euroranheim and Ishtarika. In fact, it would be pointless to win or not the continent."

"Hmm. You think there's no point in healing without force?

"I was wondering if that was just the will. It's pointless to pay willingly."

"It certainly could be. But I think. Whatever the circumstances, Rockdam will want the fact that he can conquer the continent's hegemony. If you do, you will increase your national power. It's hard to say it won't affect the economy, because it's hard to get a title."

"It makes sense...... I mean, as a rock dam..."

I want to increase my national power without selling fights to Ishtarika and without their influence. Don't miss your last chance to win the continent without the use of force. It was this one heart.

Second, the boulevard turned.

"Oh."

When one old merchant turned his eyes, there was "extra!" There is a figure of him who screams and sprinkles the paper. Eventually he approached me and I was sprinkled. When I saw that, I opened my eyes and was surprised.

"Surprised. He said the man ran for the next head of state."

"The man...... no way, he betrayed Madam? What a delightful story this has been!

"But people, assets, brains. In many ways, he's fit."

"The ritual of selecting the Head of State is going to be a rough one. Which... was going to be static, but trying to make me earn it"

The old merchants look up into the sky and narrow their eyes on the dazzling morning sun. Eventually, he dreamed of a dazzling golden light no less in the morning sun than he did on the day of the election of the Head of State.

◇ ◇ ◇ ◇

Around the same time, Ishtarika boasts a royal castle crossing.

A man in a golden hyena and a man in a swallow tail suit walked shoulder to shoulder in this beautiful garden where the gardener's business glowed from left to right.

Earlier, His Majesty said he'd leave it to Ain.

"Hmm, that sire did that?

Marco, a man in a swallow tail suit, is surprised to hear the words now.

Interested in how he decided to leave Ain to himself this time.

"The sender of the invitation did say Rendle."

It was Lloyd who had direct involvement with those with that name.

Shortly after the Heim war began, it was Rockdam that Ishtarika landed. It was those who welcomed them when they landed who were commanders of the military at the time in Rockdam, a man named Rendle.

"From what I've heard, the Marshal has invited you, too."

"It is. That said, although my father has also received an invitation, he has already admitted to saying no. I'm not leaving your Majesty."

"So this is the General's concern about how Ein will respond."

"... it's a different story, but I'm still not used to being called a general"

"Soon I'll get used to it. A little over four months after Ein's engagement and reign at the age of twenty were announced. He was appointed shortly afterwards, so it would be a good time."

Dill will be young and in some seats.

One, taken together, is more Ain's escort, the other adds the position of leader of the Black Knight, now a general, created to provide protection around him.

"I hope so... That's what we talked about"

Dill coughed up as he walked and changed his standing.

"Last year I received two invitations under Ein"

"One is the present Head of State, who will leave shortly. Here's the other one, Lord Rendle."

"It will. But the other day, I also received an invitation under my father. This is definitely an indirect encouragement as they cannot rush the royal family."

That's why they were walking shoulder to shoulder like this.

About a few hours ago, Dill was summoned to Warren.

So I was told the story: "It's time to make Rockdam wait". Ishtalika was busy with Ain for a reason, but it would be time to reply.

Warren asked Dill for it when he needed to ask Ain.

"I want to know what the general thinks."

"I disagree. There is no need for Ein."

I'd like to know why.

"I don't feel the significance to taking my feet. You don't have to ask if it's in your national interest or if you think about it."

Frankly, it doesn't make a lot of sense to let Rockdam turn royalty. Because that is the national interest, and because we do not want any further friendship in the future.

"I understand if Father or Master Warren is going," Dill added at the end.

"But since Ein is willing to do everything, I'm sure he wants to go."

"Willing, that's a good word."

"Lord Marco."

"No, excuse me. I'm not a human resource person either, I'm just trying to get out of the way."

It's not even like I'm forced to stop.

In the end, it depends on Ein's choice.

It is on these sides that Silvard also entrusted his judgment, and it is because of Ain's behavior so far that the other heavy towns do not pinch their mouths.

I'm not swinging it off freely, but, after all, is the word willingness right?

"You're here."

- Eventually I plug it into the courtyard and Dill says so and stops my leg.

I saw the back of a prominent hedge. This is the gift of the gardener's skill, which has been adjusted so that it can never be seen from anywhere else.

It is, so to speak, a space that has as special significance as a royal bedroom.

"Excuse me."

and Dill called out to the service that stood in front of the entrance.

"Master Warren asked me to give this to Mr. Ain"

That's what I said, and I took the rounded paper out of my nose. The paper is closed with strings, some of which describe the rock dam thing.

But I shake my neck to the side as I feel sorry for my salary.

"Well," Marco said, looking at the sky.

"Indeed, Master Ain was on official business in the morning. And now, a warm afternoon in the sun. Lord Dill, you better get back out there."

Finally Dill also understood and shrugged his shoulders.

It's the moment I tried to get nostalgic for the rounded paper.

"- Huh."

A maneater emerged from a gap in the hedge plundered the paper, floating his winning face.

Even if the hasty dill stretches out his arm, it's too late.

Maneater disappears immediately into the hedge.

... Marco's hand was put on Dill's shoulder with his outstretched arm draped without force and without sound.

- Okay.

There was a pair of men and women who kept their backs in a single tree, bathed in a leaking tree, and soaked in a comfortable micro sleep.

It would be a picturesque sight from the side. A woman's head is placed on a man's shoulder, and everyone wants to watch her neighbor amicably.

A man eater shows up there, puts a piece of paper on the man's lap and disappears.

"... hmm?

When the man immediately noticed and woke up, he noticed the paper and took it. Feeling the calm sleep of a woman on her own shoulder, she glances through the letters that were written.

"Oh, I thought it was time."

"Ein......?

"I'm sorry, are you awake?

"Yeah, I'm fine.... Something wrong?

"Kind of from Mr. Warren. Krone can still sleep."

Ain smiles at her with a stream as she points her face at the paper.

Then she honestly sweetened and closed her eyes.

It's something that has grown before and has become quite honest with me. Ein feels a hint of it and then turns to what was written.

(Honestly, I didn't really feel like going)

I know exactly what it means for the next King Ishtarika to take a leg. If the destination is domestic, I don't have to know, and I don't think it would be a good idea to head to the venue for the election of the next Head of State.

But...

(What's the matter)

On the ground opposite Krone was a newspaper.

An article written on it drew Ain's interest, and whatever its shape, it was driven by the desire to take a trip to Birdland, not Rockdam.

But the newspaper isn't from the last few days, it's an old one that was published a month ago.

So I have to go back a little bit.

- Why not?

Why Ein wanted to go to Birdland.
