I'm going back to the mansion once.

Suddenly it was rude to go all the way to Lisia's parents' house, so I decided to write to her first, tell her I was willing to visit her, and then I heard back.

I wrote that I wanted to add Lisia and talk about it once because there was something important to talk about the war, and I didn't need to make it happen. By the way, the destination is not Lisia, but my father's Hamand.

Either that or I thought there was some opposition from Hamand to letting Lisia go to the Empire City.

Well, even if they say no, that won't greatly lower the ratings from the clan, so there's no problem. Besides, it is unknown how useful Lisia will be in the negotiations. You won't have to persuade me to eat down persistently.

Waiting for a reply letter,

"Dear Ars, it appears Ben of Shadow has brought a report"

and the minister came to report.

When I free up time when I went to Sempler, I couldn't get a report from Ben, so I decided to leave it up to the minister who was sending me to Canale to receive the information and pay for the gold coins, not me directly.

The minister brought a letter from Ben.

"Thank you"

I receive the writ and read the contents.

It was first written that the enemy's information was becoming available, albeit little by little. The method is completely unknown.

I don't see any aristocracy that seems to be able to adjust. Basamark believes that the more time passes, the more advantageous he will be in controlling Alcantes Castle, and is unlikely to set it up from himself.

But it seems that one of the ministers is claiming an invasion of Perena County, and discussions about it are currently under way.

Then I'm trying to form an alliance with the state of Sitz.

There are also plans to request an attack from the state of Sitz on Klan territory.

This one hasn't succeeded yet, but I think it feels good.

It also seems to have gone to Paradise and the Emperor's House to negotiate under the water, but neither of this seemed to work.

Basamark also predicts that the clan will take an operation to form an alliance with Paradise, but believes that this is unlikely to succeed.

Something like that.

It was the information I heard from one of my ministers, and he added at the end that I could not be certain that it was 100 percent correct.

Still, Shadow seems pretty good at finding out all kinds of enemy strategies. I'm glad we got a contract.

An alliance with the state of Sitz can be a big deal if it succeeds.

They will suffer the most, especially in Canale County, which is on the state border. Lamberg is naturally not safe either.

Report this information to your clan once.

Maybe Klan also hires undercover mercenaries like Shadow, and he's got this information, just in case.

I copied the information brought to me by Shadow in my letter and sent it to the clan.

Then a few days later, Hamand received a letter of permission.

I took an escort and headed to Torbekista, where the Plaid family mansion is located.
