Our demon king is coming. (formerly Mayday A Series)
20: Ulysses, I'm worried about my uncle's squared sugar.
Sir Raymond Alexandia Dj Ruscia is my uncle.
Nevertheless, Raymond's uncle was the youngest of many of his father's brothers, and he was young in his late twenties before the thirties.
Competent person, but I don't know this person every once in a while.
"Hey not, Your Highness Ulysses!!
"... hello uncle"
My uncle Sir Raymond, now in front of me, nicked as much as I did, but with a fresher look than I did, seemingly more humane.
And it's always more tense.
"Your Highness, you did like sweets, didn't you? When I stopped by Marguilia the other day, I had some delicious lemon confectionery at Bigrates'...... apparently Delia Field confectionery, and now I want to make some tea with His Highness!!
"Wow, I'm glad."
By the way, he's close to the Duke of Bigrates, the lord of Marguilia.
I watched him as he behaved like a child to my uncle.
He has a stern face with chestnut hair similar to his father's.
He is also a great guy in the gap who has no eyes on sweet things, fresh personality and wants to be cute, because he is left to the executive of the army to say that he is young.
Well, I can't tell you about people, but you still have the first impression, right?
I'm single, by the way.
My uncle and nephew's tea party on the terrace of the Alexandria Mansion is a smiling sight, but we're not in a position to do just that.
Behind me is Isaac, who glanced at me, and behind my uncle is a magician in a black robe.
"Still, what an uncle I am and a tea party, is it good for an army executive to be free like that?
"Ha ha, there's nothing more free than an army in a country without war."
Well, sure.
Well, maybe that's true.
"But my uncle once stayed on the eastern continent, didn't he? Was the war still intense in the east? I'm interested..."
"... Haha, I didn't know you were interested in war, Your Highness has changed."
My uncle lifts that wide shoulder a little and laughs like he's in trouble.
I look up at my uncle with innocent eyes, like a child who knows nothing.
Now, it's a southern continent that is only marginally involved with the eastern continent.
The Kingdom of Ruskia is subject to restrictions but also immigration.
My uncle stayed on the eastern continent for a time and has been involved with foreign countries and watched wars, which can be described as very valuable in this country.
"Hehe... it's the difference between cloud mud and this country ~. Because the countries of the east are in a gray war situation with no taste at all, as if the countries of the south have taken away all their gorgeous colors. The invasion of the Hermédes federation in the north is making it worse and worse."
"... why would the Hermédes Federation invade the countries of the east?
"Right, the North attaches the utmost importance to land. Because it is originally a snow country, and we don't have much fattened land, so we need as much land as we can when farming and pastoralising. Those countries are destined to invade."
……
Did I just say that the answer is unusual and that you won't tell me the truth...
I had a bite of lemon cake. [M]
Plenty of sweet and sour lemon syrup, with a refreshing aroma spreading all over your mouth.
I see, this is delicious.
I remember the form of trade 2,000 years ago. [M]
"I wish there was a continent to the west. I was able to make a lot of crops because it was originally a rich land, and the trade with the north, where dairy farmers and jewellery and crafts flourished, was successful... The three continents circulated quite well because cotton, tea leaves and spices were popular in the east."
"... Huh?
Oops, not good.
I accidentally kept talking about the old days.
My uncle has his eyes on the dot.
"Yes, no... it was a long time ago. Because I read it in a book before."
"... Ah, Your Highness is a diligent man. You're right. I can't even imagine 2,000 years ago, because the power of the Red Witch devastated most of the western continent, and because of the scattered malicious Magi particles, forced the survival of the western people to migrate all the way north and east. Hey. It's a big ethnic move. Hey. That's how the long war in this world began."
As I stroked my jaw, my uncle arranged the squared sugar on the table.
Just, like, four clovers.
"For the three continents, we lost the western continent, which mainly produced food, and only more people, so any country would be confused. Serious food shortages and land shortages, cultural differences and discrimination have created and continue to cause strife. … really, the southern continent without any influence is a sin"
The beautifully decorated, brightly colored teacup in front of you is this country itself.
My uncle stared at it with indescribable eyes, put all the square sugar on the table for what he thought, and sipped that tea.
"But my uncle is from the southern continent... you don't think this peace will last long, do you?
"What makes you think that?
"'Cause you're gathering information about countries in the east. And the Hermédes Federation over there. Isn't it because you think war fires will fly on this continent, too?
……
My uncle took his hand off the teacup he had and gave him a kind of very soggy look.
Honestly, I didn't expect you to look like this, so this one gets stunned.
"Duh, what's wrong? Uncle."
"... even I wish there was no war."
My uncle used to put some sugar in his newly poured tea, and also some sugar.
How sweet would it have been?
"Besides, this continent will not be attacked by any other continent as long as it has" green protection ”. …… and that's what everyone at the top of Ruscia thinks"
Pochan............
When the sixth squared sugar rippled the tea surface, my uncle turned his gaze to me.
Green protection refers to the holy power of Vabilofos, which this southern continent believed in a long time ago, before ancient times.
When I say what I know about green protection, I say that the curtain of magic that protects this continent has been descending for a long time, mainly in the Holy Land.
It's a demon-guided defensive curtain shaped like a dome.
It is also possible to say that the Holy Land is the one in which we can manage and manipulate this, and that is why the Holy Land holds great power.
I don't know how that magic curtain is coming down.
"It's horrible to me that everyone believes in this favor, even though there's no basis for green protection to last forever."
……
I'll stick around and want to hear more about him.
This is why I always feel heavy before my tea party with my uncle.
Because I'm obsessed with myself and I'm about to get caught up in his pace.
I don't really feel the peace bokeh ideology ingrained in the southern continent on my uncle.
Peace believed to be impossible to end.
earth unconditionally under the protection of the sanctuary without having to do anything.
A people who take those benefits for granted.
I still can't insult my uncle.
Because the only people who can question peace in this country will be those who have seen the outside world.
