< -- 202 times: 9 volumes - chapter 1. Conflict in the Orient Kingdom -->

Essentially, the Orient Kingdom was not in the Alliance's immediate position. Bordering the Horn Empire is the Kingdom of Leaden. If the Horn Empire and the Kingdom of Leaden fight against each other and their power is weakened, it will be in the interest of the Kingdom of Orion.

The only problem was that when the Horn Empire attacked the Kingdom of Leaden, the target was clearly the basin of the Baden River, where logistics were concentrated. We can tell by the fact that Castel Castle is already being used as a beachhead for an invasion.

Then it will be just as Caroc said it would be.

The Horn Empire, which occupied the Baden River Basin, instead enlisted an alliance with the Ledon Empire, while simultaneously using the Baden River as a supply to invade the Orient Kingdom.

The Orient Kingdom also invites allies to the Kingdom of Leaden, but the Kingdom holds the hands of a more powerful Horn Empire of both countries.

International politics is like chess, so the game is turned upside down in an instant.

That's why the king of Orleans must make a decision.

Is the Horn Empire strong enough to occupy the Baden River basin and invade the Orient Kingdom? Is this a good time to make alliances with the Kingdom of Leaden?

The duck king was ambitious, too.

The evidence was that many years ago, he tried to intervene in the civil war of the Kingdom of Leaden.

The Orient Kingdom was once the continent's largest empire. I haven't forgotten the golden age of Orion.

If the Kingdom of Leaden prevents the invasion of the Horn from drawing near, the chances of conquest return to the Kingdom of Orion. The scenario of defeating the powerless Kingdom of Leaden and the Horn Empire as fishing grounds and becoming the loser of the continent unfolds.

“Mmmm... ”

The Orient King was in conflict again and again. It was not an easy decision to make. If you leave it wrong, the judgement will turn upside down and there will be no turning back.

When Duke Britain saw his conflict, he opened his mouth.

“Your Majesty. Allow me to request the introduction of Bird of Ligand. ”

“Excuse me?”

“I don't think it's a bad idea to listen to the words of the ligand writer. He's certainly not a liar when it comes to weak characters or negotiations. How would you like to meet him in an informal conversation, not an official statue? ”

The Orient King was right.

“I see.”

Looking out the window, I noticed that the full moon was decorating the evening sky with a good color.

“Good moonlight. Great night for a walk in the garden. ”

Duke Brighton nods.

“I'll tell him that. ”

* * *

There was no way to get confused.

My heart trembled when I thought he was here, and I was so excited that I was ashamed and hated myself.

“I shouldn't do this.... ”

Princess Serence sits by the window and sighs as she looks up at the sky.

It was like yesterday that I attended the banquet of writer Kunt and met him and his family. Yeti coat still looks ridiculous (?) and laughed jokingly.

But in between, he got married. I took two women to be my wives, and I became my own ligand. Princess Serence, who was expecting to be his wife, was stunned when she heard the news.

At first, I thought it was not fate, but after a few days, I began to think of all kinds of Smurfs.

You think I married another woman on purpose because I didn't want to? Maybe he married a woman who didn't have a heart because of his political stance?

As if lying in bed at night, there were a lot of doubts.

Every time, Princess Serence used to walk through the garden in the moonlight. Walking through the night sky alone reminded me of his face again, but I could recall that feeling more calmly than lying in bed.

From the moment I met him, I felt like I had met a friend for a long time. That compassion, intimacy.... Thanks to this, my anxiety about marriage disappeared. I thought it would be okay for this man to get married. I thought I could live happily ever after if I became his wife.

A man like that is here. One week later, Princess Serence had no choice but to wake him up.

If you run into him by chance, he'll smile and say, "Hello, it's been a long time." So what should I say? I don't want you to know I'm upset.

Princess Serence shakes her head.

She shakes the bell next to the bed.

A servant comes in from outside with a clear bell.

“You summoned me, Princess. ”

“I can't sleep. ”

“Phew, even today? ”

“Yes.”

“This is really bad. Would you like to take a walk again today? The moon is bright and pretty. ”

“Yeah, let's do that. ”

“Wait a moment. ”

The servant goes outside, and momentarily shows up with a brown half coat and shawl. I wrapped him in shawls and put a half coat on him. Princess Serence went for a walk with the maid.

* * *

I was enjoying tea time after dinner. Bringing me a refreshment, the maid said she was jealous of me.

“Have you ever been to the rose garden behind the war? ”

“Huh? No. ”

“Why don't you take a look? The roses are so beautiful in moonlight. ”

And it gives me a meaningful look.

A servant who works in a strict palace never gives a personal joke to an envoy from another country. Which means someone wants to meet you there quietly? Okay. If you don't understand any of this, I'll kill you myself.

“Really? What time is the best time to go? ”

“It'll be nice after 9: 00. ”

“Yes, of course. ”

An informal dialogue.You must be King of the Orions.

Well, at least now I want to hear my opinions, so I have to be sensible. This is a good opportunity. You must convince them.

I spent time eating tea and refreshments. It was 8: 30 on the clock. Well, I didn't think it would be a bad idea to go to the meeting place in advance. After all, the moon is a beautiful night.

But my walk is different from that of ordinary people.

I opened the window wide.

You climb up to the window sill and step into the air outside the window.

I controlled my body fluids with Wounded's ability to float my body in the air. And so I began to walk through the air.

Walking on two feet required a careful sense of balance. But I was sharing my senses with Undyne, who became a higher spirit, so I had a very sophisticated level of control.

“Wow, what a nice moonlight. Right?"

- Yeah!

-Yeah.

- Moonlight on fire, khheh!

The gnome sitting on the head and the woman in the body, Salamander, replied. Haha, cute ones. It seems so cool to be alone and not alone. Aesthetics are so cool.

It's a walk in the sky, so it's really cool. I never get tired of seeing the landscape spread out under my feet. We'll play with cis and julia later. Heehee.

I had a nice walk.

I walked straight to the moon. I walked upside down. I felt uncomfortable with the blood rushing to my head when I walk with my head to the ground, but I didn't care because Wounded's power allows me to control the blood flow.

Sometimes I walked with my feet against the walls of the palace.

Oh, I wanted to try this too.

I swam through the walls of the palace with my hands and feet in the air. Elegantly free across the air. So I swam.) toward the rose garden behind the battle.
