Price of Management

* * *

Earl Duron of Chancellor Duron and Earl Clevius of Military Intelligence, who was at the last court meeting, became a big topic. The nobles were paying attention to which of the two was going to resign.

But Earl Clevius, the party, was doomed.

“Oh, I'm crazy! ”

Earl Clevius was immersed in autumn. When I think about it, I feel sorry for myself.

Why would he make such a dangerous bet by provoking an old man's imagination?

The wrong side of the bet is retreating!

Earl Clevius insists that we intervene in civil war and damage the Horn Empire, as well as a decree prohibiting intervention.

It was like a battle over which one of the two had a better insight into international politics.

Of course, Earl Clevius was filled with anxiety.

“That old man must have had a good reason when he made such a strong argument. I went out of my way to protest for no reason, and then I saw what I look like! ”

Earl Clevius was eager to strike his light tongue at the words of Earl Duron.

I thought I should just stay quiet, but then I decided to take a step back and play a dangerous political game.

What was more unfair was the attitude of the other top officials.

The leaders of each department, like themselves, agreed to intervene in the civil war of the Horn Empire. However, as he crashes into the Duke of Duron and makes his way to his post, he squeezes his mouth shut, cowardly and helpless.

No one had ever taken their place in my place. Besides, who is the opponent? It was the late Duron, revered for his character and wisdom. There could not have been a confident management to compete with such ideas and insights. Because you can't just walk out there and look like Earl Clevius!

“You ungrateful, bat-sharing scumbags! ”

Earl Clevius was furious when he thought he was alone in the mud.

But who do you blame?

If he were in the same situation, Earl Clevius would have made the same choice.

It's not about belief, it's about safety!

I felt more anxious because I was going to resign by myself when I lost. The fear of being a stray for politicians was the greatest of all.

That's why Earl Clevius sent many spies to the Horn Empire to help him understand the situation of the civil war.

He was more loyal to his service as a military contractor than ever before when his head was caught.

And finally, in the drought, the good news comes like showers.

First battle between the Nomads of King Talak and the Punitive Force of Emperor Kars!

Emperor Kars' 6th Army has been hit and retreated!

Earl Clevius feels eager to dance to this news.

Of course, it's the first time.

I don't know the results yet.

However, it was the first battle to discover the extent of Emperor Kars' ability to wage war.

"Heheheh. You put an army out in front of the nomads like a prey. Emperor Kars is a rumor, a child who doesn't even know the first man of war!" "

I was starting to think of something arrogant because I felt good.

He was right, too.

The famously wise insight of the old monument was no longer important.

"Yes. When you think about it, King Erik is just a kid who listens to the words of Earl Duron and the words of the Caroc Ligand, right?"

After thinking that, I started to feel like I didn't need to be afraid at all.

The imagination unfolds in Earl Clevius' head.

'We insist on continuing to intervene in the civil war.'

If the outcome of the civil war leads to the defeat of Emperor Kars, Earl Duron is wrong and proves himself right. You will win the Duke of Duron with insight.

As a result, the Duke of Duron retreats from his tenure, and the Duke of Caroc Ligand also narrows his position greatly.

At that time, you will emerge as the heart of the kingdom!

"Huh-huh-huh, the ups and downs depend on the decisions of the moment."

On that day, Count Clevius, full of confidence, asked King Eric to convene a temporary court meeting. The leaders of each department were able to ask for a court meeting at any time in the event of an urgent matter.

The next day, when the palace meeting was held, Earl Clevius asserted with confidence.

"Your Majesty! As I've seen, the Horn Empire was defeated by the great Tallac in its first battle. The 6th Legion that built the Advance Base was caught up in an ambush tactic unique to the nomadic tribe and lost half its troops!"

In these words, the heads of the respective departments shifted.

Earl Clevius continued:

"It was foolish in the first place to deploy only one army separately against the fast-moving nomads. Emperor Kars must be dark on strategy. At last, we must join hands with the great Tallac and crush the Horn Empire!"

"Hmm."

King Erik groans and glances at Marquis Duron.

Duke Duron looks at the other officials without blinking an eye, giving King Erik an eye.

"What do the other masters think?"

Then, like the hyena who discovered the prey, the writer, Vandel, said.

"I also agree with the opinion of the military award. As I said before, I still think that the alliance with the nomadic Independents is the path to the future of the Kingdom of Leaden."

Earl Clevius was the earl of Vandel, who was silent when he collided with Earl Duron not long ago.

However, now that he claims to be an opportunity, Earl Clevius has no choice but to look at him with astonishing eyes. However, Baroness Vandel turns his head and ignores the look in his eyes.

Then the expressions of the other bookkeepers changed as well.

When he saw the words of author Vandel, he realized that this was a good opportunity.

Eventually, you and I started talking.

"I agree with Earl Clevius as well!"

"Withdraw the king's command at this time, Your Majesty!"

"Don't miss out!"

The masters of each department respond to Earl Clevius' wishes in unison.

Earl Clevius, who gained his strength, looks up at Duke Duron with a cheerful face. He asked what to do now.

Duke Duron opens his mouth with a firm expression.

"Your Majesty, that's what the masters mean, but I still disagree with civil war intervention. This news of defeat is likely to be a ruse by Emperor Kars. I'd like to offer you the position of a god of war, so please keep an eye on the civil war."

Earl Clevius is not defeated.

"The unchanging belief of the Chancellor is admirable, but it is important to be clear about right and wrong. This is a matter of national ambassador! Don't miss out!"

Earl Clevius vs. Earl Duron face to face!

Earl Clevius is now an aggressive swordsman.

King Erik looks to Earl Duron.

Are you going to be okay?

'Yes, thank you.'

Duke Duron gives King Erik his undying confidence.

King Eric nods and opens his mouth.

“No intervention in the civil war of the Horn Empire. This is only the first battle and we don't know the situation yet. Now let's keep an eye on the situation as we speak. ”
