"Welcome home, Ines."
Castle entrance. So Ines, who got out of the Magic Conductor, was greeted in the form of a simultaneous bow to the servants.
Without a glance at it, Ines proceeds into the castle. Then, at some point, one of the butlers was escorted. It's a man who's Ines' lead butler.
"Welcome home. Seems like a lot of things moved this time."
Words included voices to condemn.
Naturally. I went to the front on my own, because I sent a knight to the front who was supposed to protect me, and I was in command all the way behind that little bit.
It is just an action that would normally be unthinkable.
"There was no timing other than that"
Ines gently recieves it and goes down the hallway.
Did the butler give up when he saw it, sigh small and recommend the topic. I haven't seen Inez grow from a young age in Dada.
I can somehow guess what her vegan personality is, what she's thinking, etc., even if Ines doesn't talk about it.
"Really? How about after this? You must be tired, and can I rest in your room?
"No, I'll see your father. Is your father in the office?
"Now, I was wondering if you were having a meeting with the bureaucrats. I'm sure it'll be over in a while."
"Then let me know when you're done. I'll get dressed by then."
"Understood."
The butler gently disappears from behind. As I went down the aisle without worrying about it, I saw a private room.
The soldier on the lookout sees Inez come, opens the door and accepts Inez inside.
"Easy clothes for now. I'll see your father, so please don't be so rough"
"Yes, sir."
The sidekicks pick out their tequila and clothes and put them on Ines.
By the time he finished dressing, Ines was dressed in a fluffy blue based dress.
"Huh, that's a lot easier than an outerwear dress."
Ines says happily looking at the dress she is coming to.
"They say it's the latest room wearing dress. Prenuptials are hard to take off and postnuptials are easier to get rid of."
"Oh, you're surprisingly stubborn. Which one is this?
"Of course it's for prenuptials. If you put a postnup on the princess, our necks will fly."
"Hehe, so is that. But you want one. I'd like to try it on once."
"The queen has it, so let me flush it from a maid I know."
If Ines ordered a dress after marriage, it would be important if it flowed from somewhere. With the expectation that Inez would still want to know all about it, I spoke to the maid with the queen beforehand.
Simply put, it is a side-stream.
"I'm looking forward to it. It could be interesting to make fun of my knight."
"That person is engaged, so please keep it as long as possible"
The maid keeps the nail on Eldo, who is responding exactly to Inez's demands, in order not to create a pathetic misunderstanding with her.
"My knight's lover was Angus. Then it sounds interesting to wear it to Angus."
"I thought that was a good idea."
Attempting to wear something borrowed from the Queen to a civilian maid is a major problem in itself, but it is an acceptable act because of Inez's initiative.
The maid agreed with me that this area would be about to drop it.
There the door is knocked and the butler's voice is heard from the outside.
"Dear Ines, Your Majesty's meeting is over. You are now returning to the office."
"Okay. Shall we go then?"
Ines smiled and took the sidekicks to the king's office.
The king's office. That's so practical in the killing landscape that I don't think it's where the king is.
Shelves and desks are, of course, top notch, but if people don't see them, they'll look just like desks.
A laid carpet is worth three years if it's a civilian in one piece. However, carpets without any pattern are inferior to those laid between glances or in private rooms.
Parents and children were facing each other in such a room just to do their job.
What can I do for you?
The king asks Ines without even raising his face from the documents he is reading.
"I wondered how long your father was going to keep this war going."
"War is what the other side (Overdo) is waging. It won't be easy."
"Are you sure?"
Hearing Ines' words, the king lifts his face up for the first time and stares at Ines.
"What do you want to say"
"Villages spreading in and near the buffer zone. Think a little further, and you'll easily see that they're bait."
Villagers banned from moving. Surveillance of the Almunale, which determines the time exactly and goes around.
Surveillance stations in the buffer zone that, despite being attacked many times, never try to build.
Either way, it's like you're asking me to attack you.
"I don't have any money. Soldier's rice must also be cooked. Let the villagers move freely and our country will suffer food distress"
"Why are we so obsessed with our own food when industry is so active and the balance of payments from trade is so large? Didn't you get in touch with your surrounding allies that you are close enough to sell them again this year"
"It's not a sure thing. If the rate of supply in their own country drops too low, the people will suffer when they fail"
"Isn't it just suffering now, such as the people suffer? Your father forbade you to travel."
"That's a theory of results. If you're not attacked, you won't suffer."
"I mean, you think Obard's all bad?
"Yes."
"So you have to do nothing? Isn't that lazy?
"We offer subsidies and tax exemptions"
"Is the result of this great invasion?"
In the words, the paper that the king had makes a quarrel.
Ines stared at his father from the front.
"Do you still really think that war can be controlled, etc?
"The damage is enormous, but within the limits of our assumptions"
"Is this all the damage you've done, within your assumptions… I do know that dozens of villages have been crushed beyond counting"
Information from Eldo, as well as information coming in from other fronts, had also come into Inez's ear, albeit in part.
According to that, at least the villages near the border were wiped out as a result of this enemy invasion. A good number of houses have also been burned since the beta block near the second line of defense.
Completely breached the second line of defense, the δ or ε blocks would be devastating.
"That's not what you care about"
The king turns his gaze back on the paperwork again just saying that the story is over.
But Ines doesn't pull.
"It's royal with me. We can't overlook the people getting hurt senselessly."
"You're a woman. Sooner or later I will be married to another country. Leave this country to Darius and the others. They have something to teach."
"That would mean inheriting your father's way. Then I say no."
Both First Prince Darius and Second Prince Yug have studied quite well on politics for when they succeeded to the throne. In it, the king was educating the two of them to carry on in his own way. Ines, who watched it next door, decided to move herself when she saw her brothers learning how to do the king without any doubt.
"You only know the small world (reality) yet. Darius and the others are different worlds."
"I don't think wanting to stop the war for the people is a small thing"
Inez's appeal. The king denies it outright.
"It is a trivial matter. All the royalty wants is the development of the country. It's the people who use it for that."
"In that way of thinking, the country will collapse. If we don't save the people who are suffering now, they will disobey!
"Did you send a Kingsguard knight to embezzle the generator for that?"
The king naturally knew Ines had intentionally changed the generator's delivery address.
Ines, too, was prepared to be known anyway, so there is no upset. Answer with dignity.
"Yes."
"Do something unsolicited. So how much do you think the plan needs to be revised?"
"You just have to crush it, like a plan to keep the war going."
"A lot of people were annoyed by your unselfish behavior. Speak indefinite prudence, including generator embezzlement. I won't allow you to leave the room until I give you my permission."
That, in essence, is to say caution until the end of this great invasion.
The king was not willing to involve Ines in the military any more. For this reason, I will inform Ines that I planned to fold it.
"And cautiously engage you with your fiancée. Get ready."
"You have no choice."
Fiancée herself existed for a long time in Ines. But I've never seen the person's face.
Ines was running away for some reason.
But if you're cautious and you can't get out of the room, you can't even get away.
Ines sighs small and shifts the plan in another way.
"Was it indeed the Prince of the Principality of Wellia"
"It's Prince Aldo. Remember your fiancée's name."
"It's something I've never had, and I almost forgot it existed. Well, I'll see you soon, so let's check your hobbies."
Of course, what I look into and think about is how they hate me.
"I'm done talking. Go back to your room. Prudence has already begun"
"Excuse me, sir."
Deciding that no further discussion was possible, Ines withdrew cleanly.
Ines sighs as she returns to her room to get her maid some tea.
I knew it, but I'm not convinced of my father's way of scorning the people so much. And I am also discouraged by my own power, which did not deliver anything to my father's heart.
"That went down a lot easier. I honestly thought I'd eat more."
A maid who served tea shares her thoughts with Ines, who has pulled back quite lightly.
"Something that won't change if you argue there forever. Your father still doesn't understand."
"What is it?
"It's impossible to control war. He said it was within his assumptions, but still, it should be a pretty sleazy line. If we had been attacked any more, there would have been damage to the Wang capital as well. It would be more appropriate to say acceptable than acceptable."
Even if we get past the second line of defense, we still have the final line of defense. But the fact that it will be a battlefield will affect the transportation of merchants in no small measure, which could also interfere with the life of the Wang capital.
Given that, it is believed that the second line of defense was a fairly critical line if taken by residents of the Wang capital and its environs.
To that evidence, considerable reinforcements had been sent elsewhere than on the defensive line to which Eldo was headed.
Ines considers that to be evidence of his father's impatience.
Still, the power of words was too weak to poke reality at the Father that he was in control of the war.
"The only way to get your father to rethink his thoughts is to make something bigger and more unexpected happen"
"What's that?
"My knight is the key to that. One force that stands out drives the plan from the ground up. So your father pulled Eldo off the front line on the grounds of the Lion Medal. And this battle proved to me that that much power lay in him."
The King said a major modification was needed. That means Eldo's activity was causing an unexpected situation for the king.
Even if I could just prove it, this time I have enough to reap.
"I want to make this country peaceful. I believe it is wrong to use the battle to activate industry. That's why..."
"Is that why?"
"War against the Obard Empire. I'll make it stop."
Determined in those eyes, Ines ran out of words.
Armunale with people on his shoulders was advancing through the town beyond the buffer zone.
Around it there is a group of mercenaries who followed the carriage.
The Fortzes of Du Reveple.
Both arms destroyed by Eldo have been replaced by the Abnomulet stuff Leila brought to her, and she manages to have a man-shaped body, albeit inappropriate.
"He's finally back."
"This town is surprisingly prosperous. It's close to the border, and I thought the base was the main one."
Jakarta and Kyren are base cities where towns have developed around the base. But this town of Obard, the base is only small on the side of the town, full of the liveliness of the town's inhabitants and merchants. It was very different from Faital.
Forze answers that question.
"Well, the other side (Faithful) isn't coming this way. We can safely develop them near the border."
"I see. I know exactly how incompetent the king over there is."
"Sounds like you hate the King of Faithal a lot. Can I ask you why?
"Even if you don't want to say it, you have to talk to the leader when you meet him, right?
"Oh, there it is."
Leila's position now is to collaborate with the mercenaries. To officially join a fellow mercenary, you have to get permission from Elshald, the leader of mercenary ammunition here.
As Forze is aware of his recommendation, it will be almost certain, but he will not be able to get in without a corresponding reason if his origins are feital and more than he was trained at the Academy.
"I was walking around the villages near the border after I lost the final selection for the Academy."
"Heh, isn't it hard for a woman to travel alone?
"It was surprisingly safe because I left my Academy uniform on. The villagers will treat you well."
"That's why it's a uniform"
"So I saw the villagers, I saw the town, and I heard a lot of stories from the villagers and I realized it. The kings of this country are not willing to end the war, they are not willing to protect us."
That was Leila's conclusion.
Over the course of a few months I went around the villages and learned about the ban on movement, the fact that subsidies would come out, and that taxes would be waived.
If you had just lived in the village, you wouldn't have had any particular doubts.
But Leila, who was finishing a stretch of study at the academy, questioned why.
No levy existed from the village to secure emergency food at the Academy.
Even if you may use it on the way out, it will only rent a place and you will not receive food. The Armunale team, which originally held enough food, did not have enough food in front of the buffer zone.
In the first place, we're just talking about not having to make food in such a dangerous place, we just have to make it on the safe west side, and if that's not enough, we just have to trade with a friendly country. It is never in such a state of urgency that it deliberately hangs human lives.
So I noticed. That this is bait.
"The king is feeding us and inducing an invasion of Obard. It has been used to develop a great deal of magic guidance technology and industry, focusing on Armunare-related heavy industry. It's iron with a lot of blood."
"That was what was happening. Well, as a mercenary, thank you."
If there is a war, the mercenary regiment will not be devoured.
Until now, I feel like I want to bow my head to that king as a Forze when I think that something that I thought Obard was aggressively attacking me was actually due to Faithal.
"But then, why did you come here? If you want to stop the war, shouldn't you be a knight and tell the king?
"How many years will it take before then? In the meantime, many people will suffer for years."
"Isn't that the same over here?
"No, there's something I can do over here"
"That's what I came here for. I wonder what that is?
To Forze, who asked with a grin, Leila answered looking up at the clear sky for the first time in a long time from the Armunale one.
"We're going to have an all-out war. There's no point in trivial clashes, until one country or another is gone."
