Maou No Utsuwa

He made a connection between the generals who had handed him a legend on the battlefield and the Princess Sophilia. It feels good. The Knights of the Empire may say that yet another step has been taken to consolidate their institutions as Sophilia imperialists.

The fact that you have the military is a great force. Kamui doesn't even want a rough thing like this, but it can be a deterrent that won't let them do it.

In support of Otto's commercial expansion, he also made good connections with the central aristocracy he had been eyeing. As for Kamui, I don't intend to enter into any deeper bonds, but I would have been slightly mistaken that Kamui does not disdain the central nobility.

Although it is a small number of people, it seems possible to regain the freedom of the elves.

The purpose of coming here has already been fully fulfilled. In that case, I would like to leave the venue behind, but that is unacceptable to Kamui as Viscount Kreutz.

The Viscount requires a great deal of courtesy as a nobleman. There were two royal families in the venue who still had to say hello.

Kamui, a little lost, dared to pick those who couldn't move on more and head to greet him.

The interest of the visitors at the venue is still gathered in Kamui. From among the visitors who found out where Kamui was headed, an unspoken twirl occurred.

Because I found out that Kamui was ahead of him where Prince Thales and those close to him were gathered.

More and more attention was drawn to Kamui heading to what could be described as an enemy land.

"It's been a while. His Royal Highness Prince Therese."

Lie on one knee in front of Prince Therese and gently drool your head.

"Hi, long time no see. Not much."

"Long time no see. Seems very active."

Before Prince Therese ran out to the end, a man, holding back behind him, hung his words on Kamui.

"... Yes. Even if I said I was active, I had help from other people. Not yet."

"Ke, humble, too, rinse, too, and, yes, no"

"If you're too humble, you're gonna hate it."

He also takes the words of Prince Therese along the way, and the man behind him speaks to him. I soon found out that the man's role was to keep Prince Therese's stuttering from being heard around, but that was sexually annoying to Kamui.

"Um?"

Kamui asked the man.

"What is it?

"I am speaking with His Royal Highness Prince Therese?

"I know that. I am merely stating His Royal Highness Prince Therese's words as they stand."

"Until the end, I don't think His Royal Highness Prince Therese has said a word?

"It is...... I don't think you're saying the wrong thing."

Kamui makes a good point. But the man has claimed his legitimacy while admitting it.

"His Royal Highness Prince Therese says nothing, so I guess so. It's hard for me to talk."

"What are you up to?

"Nothing. I just put what I think into words."

"Viscount Kreutz, is that how you intend to shame His Royal Highness Prince Therese?

"Shame? What does that mean?

As soon as I hear the word shame, the atmosphere emanating from Kamui changes. It has a more intense, homicidal atmosphere than when you came in.

"Become, ah, no..."

The man is a civilian. I was totally frightened of Kamui's willingness to release it. There is a slight grin in the mouth of His Royal Highness Prince Thales, who saw it.

"Oh, not really, oh, threaten, don't"

"... excuse me. I didn't mean to, but I haven't lost my mind on the battlefield yet."

With the words of Prince Therese, the atmosphere of Kamui can be solved. It wasn't an excuse, there was a part of me that was actually feeling high.

"Keep it up, dude, I'm here, it was, it was"

"Yes. I came straight from the battlefield to the Imperial Capital. I arrived and immediately entered the venue, so it still seems like a battlefield."

Kamui repeats his excuses. Towards the country, even if you show them where you've been armed, because you think that just makes them fear and it's counterproductive.

"Also, already, that's, yeah, good. Heh, the border, what do you say?

"Are you at home? Or is it about the whole border?

"Here, the latter,"

"All I know is it's north and east, but it's rough. Especially in the east."

"Oh, yeah, right."

"The movement of the kingdom seems lively. There seem to be a lot of border lords who will be on that invitation."

The eastern border reaches out from the kingdom. Now it is good enough to say that all rebellions taking place on the eastern border territory are something the kingdom is holding back from behind.

"I fought, man."

"It's not that big of an army. Besides, it would have been enough for them to explore."

"And, and, and, and, and,"

The Imperial side of the battle is good. Kamui's work made the kingdom sacrifice a lot.

"I was a little worried, but I decided to do so"

"Well, why?

I responded with all my might to their quest. I dare you, Prince Thales has asked me why I would do it.

"So, out of hand, I thought the next exploration might soon come, or maybe we could have a bigger fight without realizing that we've also lost our hands. Even the smaller ones will only be exhausted if the feud continues."

"Hmm. Tap, tap, of, mesh, and, hey, what happens?

"I thought you'd grow up for a while. It's just a direct dispute."

"Chi, directly?

"You won't stop reaching out to the border lords. They may reach deeper than ever before."

"Hey, hey, hey, hey."

If the battle with direct force is not possible, the weights just move to the battle with indirect strategic tactics. It's nothing special, it's the way it should be.

"To some extent, if you attach a promise of a turnaround, those simultaneous bees will be raised next. The kingdom could come out with a massive army to make it bigger."

"Why, all, let, war, not,"

If the result is to intensify the war, Prince Thales thought that Kamui's choice this time would be a mistake.

"The kingdom has been trying for a long time, rather than exploring that opportunity, so we have no choice but to make it. One day it will."

"... so, what do we do?

I knew it was an act of readiness. But being prepared is not the only solution.

"Is that what I think?

It's not what Kamui thinks. Kamui is nothing but a frontier lord.

"Become, nothing, not thinking, wow, translate, there is a Mai"

But to end it, as Prince Therese, it's not funny. Prince Therese wants to know what he thinks if he is Kamui.

"Yes, but I haven't come up with a good idea"

"Go ahead, say it, go ahead."

"... it's something that can't even be called a countermeasure. One is to pull the troops east in advance. But since this is more of a problem, it's not a hand I can take."

"So, why, yeah, whoa, you think?

"You will reject the kingdom and stimulate it, which could speed up the showdown. But this is good. Because they won't be prepared enough either. The problem is, if the kingdom didn't move,"

"Hmm."

The Princes of Thales are not the only ones who are listening seriously to Kamui. The samurai, knights, and nobles who are around them are also listening.

"It costs military money, even if you're just garrisoning a large army. The Empire will always be forced to bear that burden. This is the one thing. The other is to stimulate the periphery."

"Hmm?"

"It means I suspect that a border lord will turn that army toward his own territory. To prevent it, you need to keep in close contact with the border territories, but if you do that, you will be able to leak all of your military information from the border territories that are already in the kingdom."

"No, you can't."

There's nothing good about Kamui. I certainly can't call it a measure.

"The other thing is, on the contrary, this one reaches out to the kingdom."

"... where are you going?

"There is no frontier territory in the kingdom, but the territory near the frontier of the kingdom is also, by the kingdom, the place of destruction and annexation. It's not like no one is dissatisfied at all."

"Oh, yeah."

"If we can fan those people and start a revolt, if we don't have to go as far as a revolt, if we reveal disturbing movements, the kingdom won't have a little room to step into the empire"

"Oh, not at all, do it, don't you?

"I don't get that. But aren't you turning funds or weapons specifically?

This is a slightly stepped statement as a Kamui. Kamui is trying to gather information on the eastern border, close to his own territory, even in detail. As a result, we are deciding that there is no such movement of supplies, but to say that we speak of it could reveal the facts of intelligence-gathering in the eastern border territories.

"Hmm."

"You can't just say move with your mouth, but you can't do that. Many of those who are dissatisfied in the kingdom are citizens of the city well who also have no sovereign rights. You can't do anything without money."

"Can't you tell me what to do?

"Because it's an imagination. And if there is one who is actually unhappy, who is it, and how many? In a situation where you don't know that, you can't call it a measure."

"Hmm, look, what else?

"There isn't. As I said earlier, this is not what I think."

"Oh well. Well, still, okay, good point, okay, I can hear you. Now, for your information, let me, I'll have it."

"... were you conspired?

In the words of the last Prince Thales, Kamui realized that the current conversation was similar to a plot. And I fit right in with it, too, to talk too much.

"What are you talking about?

"You have no reason to admit it. Well, I think that's enough to say hello. I beg your pardon."

"Ma, not yet, ah, there's a greeting left,"

"... what's that?

"Shit, the marriage is over, Hilda's in line with the royal family, duh, I think?

"Will it come"

The least I want to be touched. Now I'm not going to hide Kamui either.

"And the gaze, about, oh, go with him"

Even though he felt like he existed all the time, Kamui never tried to turn his gaze there. Even though I knew it would expose me to upset, I couldn't do it.

"No, I would like to say a proper greeting"

You can't do that if you say so far. Once at the middle hips, Kamui shifted to the front of Hildegand, right next door, on one knee. As it was, a white hand was offered in front of Kamui, who drowned his head and tried to greet him.

"... Her Royal Highness Lady Hildegand?

"His Royal Highness Prince Therese said it because of you, so I'm going to try to sweeten it up a bit"

"What do you mean, sweet?

"Oh, doesn't Kamui know how to thank your lady?

"... I know"

"Well, say hello in thanksgiving."

"Will it come"

While he uttered a dissatisfied voice, Kamui took the hand offered and gave a gentle mouthful to its back.

"My lord Lady Hildegand, it's been a long time."

"Yeah, it's been a while. Will you get up? Then you don't look so good."

"Are you up to something yet?

"I just want to see your face. It's been a really long time."

"Understood."

When Kamui stood up, his gaze, once at the same height, was long down.

It will be since that day that Kamui and Hildegand face each other. Besides, if you line up at such close distances, the events of that day really come to mind for both of us.

Forget the eyes around you, the two staring at each other.

Hildegand wore a pure white dress as if combined. Cummy with bright blonde hair and white dress Hildegand and contrasting silver hair and lacquered black outfit.

Even if you know it's disrespectful, you look like those around you as if you two are a pair.

Just standing, the two became the protagonists of the venue. Seeing those two, a sigh leaked from somewhere in the venue.

"... I didn't expect the day to come to look down on Her Highness Lady Hildegand"

"Neither did I expect the day to come to look up at Kamui"

"Isn't that a lot?

"But Kamui was originally shorter than me."

"Well."

Then the two who returned to me rushed to speak lightly to each other.

"Come on, come on, come on"

Prince Terrays stared at the two of them with pleasure.

"Is that so funny?

"Oh, I thought, no, that's it, that's it, that's it, that's it."

"... is this also the ploy of His Royal Highness Prince Thales?

"This is it."

"What?"

"I'm sorry. We've been thinking about this earlier."

"We...... Oh, I see."

I saw Marie and Matthias laughing meaningfully behind Hildegand and figured out who that was referring to.

"That was a breeze."

"That's Marie and I just wanted to say, this time you're totally on my guard"

"You're alarmed. Well, I guess so. I think I should be more humble because it's hard to do what I'm about to do when I'm regarded too highly."

"Humble?"

"You're too busy. Even if Alto is here, he can't keep his hands open. Compared to that, we just need to target you. That, too, doesn't have to fall for you. Now that you've demonstrated your abilities, this one will only create a sense of distance from you."

This is the basis of the ploy of the Prince Therays. I don't mind Kamui being recognized as competent. We just have to show them around that the power is not that of Empress Sophilia.

Even the Prince Therese opponent Kamui demonstrates his abilities. An exchange like the one we had earlier consulted was meant to prove it.

"You mean he hasn't done anything else?

"Because you don't have to. Someone who will destroy himself on his own without having to do anything."

"Do you dare to tell me that?

Kamui figured out what it meant to bother talking about our ways. I thought it might be a good idea.

"Nothing. Sometimes he just wants to immerse himself in superiority. You know what I mean. You can't do anything I advised you to do. Unless you return to the Imperial Capital."

"... here we go"

Marie is right. Kamui, who is not in the Imperial Capital, has few hands to hit. Because nothing is done against Kamui.

"That's the fatal weakness of your faction. The main force isn't on the battlefield."

"That's an excuse, but that was a miscalculation"

"Misuse?"

"I didn't think Marie would be so aggressively involved in the inheritance dispute. This is one of the causes of my alarm."

The head of the Imperial Mage is supported by Prince Therese, but that is a passive reason because the Knights are supported by Princess Sophilia. Well, Marie doesn't feel good about her father. I didn't think Kamui would be involved in the inheritance dispute.

I'm not fighting for inheritance.

"Hmm?"

"I'm just helping Hildegand."

"What do you mean?

"You can't teach me that. I'm not going to tell anyone."

"Eh?

If you look around, they all look mildly surprised. What surprises me more than anyone is that it is Hildegand, so it is clear that Marie is doing it with her own mind.

"Are you sure about that?

"Oh, that's okay. Damn, that would be good, if there was one."

"That's willingness again. I don't think this is a good idea."

This split is, in fact, what the Empress Sophilia lacks. I wish I only wanted interest from Kamui, but I try to hope to be loyal, so I'm confused by the extra words around me.

"At least the nobles are totally five minutes away today. Well, thank you."

"You don't like it?

"Seriousness. Just watch you and Hildegand stand there together, and everyone will know where you are."

"... disrespectful, huh?

Seeing Hildegand turn bright red and lean over, Kamui complained to Marie with a bitter face.

"It is His Royal Highness Prince Therese's own ploy. That's not reprehensible."

"Oh, shit, yeah."

"Look. Our general has a wide heart."

"Exactly, it's not like this is a matter of a broad heart. Well, okay. They did it for today. I need to think about it for a second... but I can't think of anything."

"I guess."

"I just know that I can't be here. Okay, I'm around here."

"Kamui......, watch your body"

With Kamui leaving this place, Hildegand hangs his last words.

"Yes. And Her Royal Highness Lady Hildegand..., wow, no. This is cowardice."

Because of talking to Marie, Kamui is completely out of her mind.

"You, hide your feelings for a moment. You'll be more worried about this one."

"... so is that. Something about a ride from college. Let's be careful. Now, if you'll excuse me."

Kamui leaving the scene. It's a calm face with no signs of battlefield dust.

It's an ironic situation where you're in an enemy camp and your mind is soothed, but there's nothing you can do about this. Even now, Hildegand is special to Kamui.

And the next thing I know is where Kamui's feelings are always turned upside down. For some reason, Deefreet was there.

"Is that it? Are you sure?

"You can't keep talking to Kamui like this, can you?

"Well......"

In this situation, Kamui is not going to go home without talking about anything either. Worrying about this is the weakness of the Sophilian princess.

"The truth is, Master Sophilia should be here, too. Exactly, because we can't both take our seats off."

"Excuse me. I'm totally hit"

"After all, that was a measure, right?

"Yes, he wanted me to think I wasn't necessarily the only subordinate of Her Royal Highness Princess Sophilia."

"Whoever holds the throne, Kamui will work for the Empire. It's obvious, but it was too obvious to think of."

Kamui is a nobleman of the Empire. It is natural to work for the Empire.

"... well"

I don't actually feel that way about Kamui, but it's not about talking here.

"We should have spread the word more that our relationship with this one is tight."

"I'm not in the Imperial Capital, so I was wondering if it would do much good."

If you are complaining about being intimate in a place where Kamui is not there, then that can also be done by the Prince Therays. Moreover, by now, the Prince Therays are more advantageous.

Even after marrying Prince Therese, the relationship between Kamui and Hildegand was not broken at all. By doing so, I let a lot of people know today that I would not oppose Prince Therese.

"... yes"

"They also said that. Being away is the biggest weakness."

"Biggest weakness just to be away?

"... too sharp"

Kamui noticed that he had slipped his mouth. Something bitter comes to mind in that look.

"What did they really say?

Seeing that Kamui reaction makes Deefleet even more concerned.

"Don't be offended. I didn't say that."

"I know."

"... the main force is not on the battlefield"

"... that's disgusting. You don't think I'm the main force over there."

At the heart of the Sophilia Princess camp is Deefleet. I feel like I've been ignored, and Deefleet is disgusted.

"I didn't say that."

"I know."

"The biggest miscalculation is Mr. Marie. I don't know the motive, but Mr. Marie is going to be in a position like a plotter in the other faction. This is what Marie thought of, apparently."

"Marie... Well, if you think Marie is rarely in people, that's what you're talking about."

Even for Deefreet, it was a surprising thought that Marie was actively involved in the battle for succession to the crown prince position.

"You have to think of a response"

"Right. That being said. How long will you be in the Imperial Capital?

"I'm leaving tomorrow morning"

Kamui came out of the battlefield. I can't relax.

"... this meeting is not until midnight. It's not long before we can take our seats off the lead."

It's the royal engagement. The feast can continue until late at night. It's good enough to say that this is the real deal.

"Oh, you know?

It is the Princess Claudia who has hesitated to interrupt the story here.

"Ah, this is Her Royal Highness Princess Claudia. I beg your pardon. Be the first to say hello."

"Yeah. I'm fine"

"No, it should be decent. It's more than that."

Saying this, Kamui broke his knee and drooped his head toward the crown princess Claudia.

"Sorry for the delay in greeting you. To Her Royal Highness Princess Claudia, how are you doing?

"Yeah. I'm fine. Mr. Kamui seems fine."

"Yes, thank you."

"So, I have a suggestion."

The greeting was there too, and Princess Claudia came to the point.

"Is that a suggestion?

"I'm taking a room in the castle, so Mr. Kamui, why don't you rest there? I think we should all meet there later and talk about it."

"Is it a room...... Well, that's right. That's the only way to take time."

"Ah, then. Let me show you around. Theresea."

"Ah..."

Theresa's face, called by Empress Claudia, clouds at once. Theresa knows what that means.

"Show Mr. Kamui around."

"Yes......"

With his expression clouding, Theresa moved forward.

"You don't have to do anything. I'll show you to someone else."

It's the usual thing for Kamui to be hated by Theresa. If Kamui can do it himself, he wants someone else to show him around.

"That's not true. Hey, Theresa."

"Yes."

When Princess Claudia tells me, Theresa has no choice but to affirm.

"... Really? Well, please."

Same goes for Kamui. I can't say I don't like it here. But that's not all I'm sorry about, Princess Claudia.

"It's a corner, so why don't you escort him properly?

"Yes?"

"Look, Theresa's red dress and Mr. Kamui's black costume look great in line."

"... Isn't that the second fry?

Earlier on, I remember hearing the same dialogue, Kamui.

"What's the second fry?

"No, it's nothing. Eh, I knew you should have stopped it. Mr. Therese, can you show me around normally?

"Ah, oh. Okay."

Kamui after the venue at the helm of Theresea, flushing the insignificant demands of the crown princess Claudia. Look at those two, there won't be anyone in there who thinks they look good.

It doesn't mean Theresa is bad.

After seeing Kamui alongside Hildegand, it doesn't matter who he is.
