After talking to Clan, I went back to the party. The time I was out was not so long, but about twenty minutes in my physical senses.

The party lasted a long time and was over the years. By that time some noblemen slept drunk or were gone, so fewer people than at first.

The party ended half an hour after the year and I fell asleep in my own room, which was ready.

And the next morning.

Yesterday's celebration mood was a mess.

The clan flew to the nobles to tighten their minds to the battle that was about to begin.

He said he would hold several military talks and start invading enemy territory in earnest.

I wasn't so far ahead of me, so I was giving orders to the nobles to be ready to fight at any time.

The party was over and I joined the Reeds back to the mansion.

Alcantes, the state capital.

Before the founding of Samaforth, the city, known as the King's capital Arcantes, has been flourishing as the centre of the Meesians for over a thousand years.

The population exceeds 500,000. It is one of the largest cities within the Samaforce Empire.

Arcantes Castle rises in the middle of the city.

It's the biggest castle in all of Meesian.

The more they call it a pitch-black castle, the blacker the color overall. This is because it is made of black king stone, a sturdy and long-lasting stone. This stone is valuable and quite expensive. The castle, created a hundred years after the creation of the Kingdom of the Meicians, tells the story of how rich the Meicians were at the time.

In the castle, in a room called between arguments.

In this room with a round table in the centre, it was precisely now that the nobles had gathered for military discussions.

"Has the ploy to Perena been broken"

That's what the man with the dark hair stretched out to his shoulder said.

His name is Bassamark Salemachia. He is the second son of the former Governor General who died and is contending with the clan for the seat of the next Governor General.

"How did you do it? Though I thought it was not a bad operation. Well, it doesn't matter if it comes with the enemy, it doesn't change our interests."

The man sitting on the right side of Bassamark answered.

He is Thomas Granzion, the man who is said to be Bassamark's right arm.

Thomas is a kid head and has plenty of mustaches stored in his tough face. He is even taller and has a body like a mass of muscle strength.

He has the appearance of being made of muscle up to the brain, but he is the owner of an excellent brain.

"But it hurts to have Perena over there."

An old man sitting on the left side of Bassamark shrugged.

The little old man with the gray head Shiragana Tama is Leamas Ivas.

He is a Wisdom General who has been putting forth wisdom for the Meesians for decades.

Adjacent to Alcantes, he is also the county mayor of Romac County.

Today's military debate revolved around the three of us and was underway.

"Is the enemy's strength about 150,000 across the army? Considering we need to leave our soldiers on the state border, it'll be about 10,000 less than that."

"We can mobilize 180,000. It's better than that, but the quality of the soldiers is probably better than the enemy. Because the soldiers on the west side have long had a lot of strong soldiers, and Master Klan seems to have hired a regiment of Maitro mercenaries. Overall, the power is mutual. Yeah."

"They don't have a big guy, except for the clan."

"It's our victory in terms of talent. You can't possibly lose."

Basamark thought this battle would have a good chance of winning.

But not a hundred percent.

Basamark, where there is prudence, wanted to be able to say a hundred percent chance of winning.

"Thomas. Where and what is your sister doing now?

"Huh? Is that him? I don't know. He must have drunk it somewhere."

"Don't you have any idea? Once upon a time, I wanted you to help me."

The moment Bassamark said so, the place was bothered.

"Ho, are you serious, Master Basamark? I can't believe I'm making him a minister again."

"The ability will be impeccable. Well, even if you can't minister, I'd like to take you back and imprison you in the castle. If he's on the side of the clan, it's gonna be a lot of trouble."

"No, that's right...... but it's true you don't know where you are"

"You don't even know?

"Not at all."

"If there was such a prominent woman, it would be a rumor, but still not at all? Thomas as well as others."

Everyone shakes their heads to the side.

"Hmm, well."

"You must be drowning wild, or you're in another state. And even if you were in Meesian, you wouldn't be anywhere near the nobility who hired him. Even if you have a proven track record, you just drank it now."

"So is that..."

Basamark had left some anxiety, but now he decided to forget about the woman.
