Kluvern Holy Kingdom
As Count Sullies returned to the mansion, his daughter, Eva, immediately stopped by. I lift my skirt and give thanks when I come forward to the Count at a critical speed that can be blamed.
"Father. How is the situation of the Ref Demon Leader Empire?"
While my daughter's, frantically anxious, courtesy as a nobleman made me smile trying to be decent, I also had complicated emotions because on the other hand, I knew that it was not myself but the boy who wasn't here who was ahead of that thought.
The Count moved to the clerk's office with his daughter and deacon.
"It appears that reception of the Refugee population has begun in border towns. It is a town in the Duke's territory of the Duke of Evegne family, so the Duke of Evegne hurried back to his territory. I hadn't considered sending troops to the ref's demon-led empire, but I quickly decided to give them 10,000 cavalry with the Duke of Glenzide and the 5th to 7th Knights of the Holy Kings."
…………
Eva was listening to the story. Although what she would like to hear is something else (...), it is important in the aristocratic society that
—— His Majesty the New Holy King gives troops to the Duke of Glenzide, the predecessor Holy King, to turn to the Empire.
That's the fact.
He is still a good parent and son Holy King family, and he can see himself as the Holy King who relied on his father, and on the other hand, he can take a thankless view of what drove his troubled predecessors to their places of death.
(Actually, "My arms are going to muzzle! I'm going to the front!" and it feels like His Holiness stopped the previous Holiness King in his attempt to waste and take only the 500 horsemen under his command, and at least asked him to lead the army... ")
Count Sullies sighs inside, having seen that interaction firsthand.
(Though that seemed to me to be how the Duke of Glenzide, who saw the Holy King worried about "sending his own people into the problems of other countries to die," said he was going "at his own risk". If you leave the empire alone, you will be seen as a "cold king," and if you stick your neck in it and you suffer pain, you will be slapped in the pussy with a "loss". It was a difficult phase for His Holiness the Holiness, who had just been inaugurated)
It is also teething that where the Count followed him that way in the aristocratic society, it doesn't make much sense because he is originally thought to be the "Scarf of the Holy King". This story will be passed on to the nobles in no time, and the topic for the next few months will be indispensable.
Then Eva,
"Well, Father... what about Her Royal Highness Anastasia and Reggie..."
I've asked you what you would have loved to hear most of all.
The Earl shook his head sideways.
"No further reports"
"Really..."
When I look at my daughter, who quietly lowers her shoulders, that's just hard as a parent's earl.
But it doesn't make sense to talk about hopeful speculation, and Eva's smart, so you'll spot speculation if you just tried to please her.
"... I didn't want to talk about this"
Sighing, the Count said.
"Lord Glenzide wishes to accompany me"
"--What, your father's?
"It would be more convenient for me to be present in making a compromise with the Ref Demon Guided Empire, the Keith Grant Federation, which has already decided to march and is moving, and the Knight of Light"
The Count's "Magic Eye of Hearing" can spot the other's lies.
Before a vicious monster, I'd like to think that no one is going to try to conspire against the other country... but I can't say enough that there will never be.
Glenzide probably wants to act after eliminating the danger of being stabbed from behind.
"I think I'll go."
The Count had already replied to his consent.
You can't just not tell Eva more than leave the mansion empty for a long time.
Eva tried to think about it, while
"... I thought your father would say no."
"Why"
"I think actions to save the Empire are meaningful, but your father is not a martial artist. Haven't you ever worked with a foreign secretary or a military secretary? If so, it would be more detrimental to leave the Holy King's capital in the presence of His Majesty the New Holy King, who has just been replaced."
"Well, you're right."
The Count deepens his grin. If we can think that far, as noble daughters, we already have a point. Even though she says she is a girl who will be 13 this year.
"Then why?"
"That's..."
Profit, I didn't think at a disadvantage. No, I didn't think about it at all, but the profits and disadvantages came to mind automatically.
I just didn't take them into account.
The Earl saw what the Duke of Glenzide did and thought.
(Oh, this guy wanted to cool off in front of his daughter)
and.
For various reasons, such as sending a help ship to the new Holy King, I understood that there was only one motive for Glenzide, "I want to cool it in front of my daughter".
- Hey, Viktor. I'm sorry, but why don't you follow me?
I immediately nodded when they said that.
So if you're asked, "How can you go when it's detrimental,"
"... Eva, because I have you"
And I would have to say.
My daughter can't help but want to get information on Reggie, but she can do more than be in the Holy King's capital.
So what about the front line?
More different information, new information, should come in every day.
If I get that information, my daughter will be delighted.
"Because I'm here, is that...?
"Yes."
In other words, the Count also wanted to cool off in front of his daughter.
"I get it! I mean, you're taking me too!?"
"YES —— YES!?"
I kind of had a strange way of communicating it.
"No, Eva. In that case --"
"Thank you, Father! You can get solid information from the crime scene. I, as one of the Earls of Sullies, will behave shamelessly!
…………
…………
Eva, who had stepped down from the chair and raised the grip of her right hand in heaven,
"I'm sorry, but from what I said, this... can't be... oh, this is what I want to get in if I have a hole anymore..."
I held both cheeks down with my hands that turned bright red and they got smaller.
(... Mr. Reggie, you will atone for the sin of doing this to your daughter...)
The Earl had solidified his resolve.
