Episode 229
"As soon as I came home, I suddenly came back."
Eleora looks at her face and pinches her scones.
This is Eleora's residence in the imperial capital, which is currently having a tea party for villains.
Mao, Parker and Rykko are present. Eleora's confidant, Deputy Bolsh and Natalia are also with him.
Eleora sighed with a sip of tea with hot wine.
"I'm a little relieved that you're back. Mao and Parker are well assisted, but I'm still worried without you."
"There will be Lord Kasniev and Lord Rkomya. For military service, there are Deputy Borsh."
"Of course it is, but you are the leader of this great plot?"
That's right.
After a bitter smile, Elleora suddenly becomes serious.
"Don't worry about the case of the Duke of Bolshevik. He's forcibly retired his predecessor, and succeeded his family a few years ago."
"Oh, Mr. Warroy said," I like him. "
He wondered if his younger brother, Jovtsiya, was a close friend, so he was somewhat prejudiced, but it seemed objective.
I told Eleorah about the talks with the Bolshevik.
Bolsch frowns.
"The Duke of Bolshevik is likely to be a competent soldier, but will not be willing to sacrifice his men."
Eleora nodded.
"Oh, it's worse than I used to. I'm like a guy like a conspiracy chess without hesitation choosing the most efficient and shortest steps."
I agree with it, but there was a bit of anxiety.
"I was able to understand that his unscrupulous turnover was such a man. But I'm not sure."
Parker puts Ryuko on his knees and leans on his head with interest.
"What is it?"
"He takes care of his home, his people, and his vassals, and betrays to protect it. At the same time, he seems to have sympathy for Warroy and Ruinier.
The two feelings are not contradictory, but prioritizing one will cost the other. Usually there should be more conflict.
"But he didn't feel any hesitation about what he was doing."
Ryuko holds a small scone in both hands and eats it while saying.
"So you're a fucker?"
"Well, I guess so ... but I'm really worried."
This strange simplicity and the charity that goes to the folk and the Warroys.
I felt as though I was talking directly, but there was a strange and heterogeneous sensation that was not just a hypocrite.
Then Elora opens her mouth as she notices.
"I'm aware of those who split that hand. Natalia, right?"
Natalia was giving her a new scone to Rykko and stroking her head.
"Hello, yes! You're right, princess!"
Well I didn't listen.
Eleora smiled and turned to me.
"I'm a religionist. They have different values and ethics from the secular, so some can lead to behaviors and thoughts we don't understand."
It's like a military man, but she understood what she wanted to say.
I certainly feel like that.
I'm convinced and nodded deeply.
"Maybe he did not even regret his betrayal, and seemed to have a love for the Dniesk family, perhaps within him, these were organized without conflict. Wa
Mao took out a bunch of papers and said,
"Maybe related, but after examining classified documents of the Dniesks, the Bolsheviks also seemed to persecute the Territory under the water."
Natalia, the daughter of Priest Kiyo, makes a surprised look.
"Persecution is that Yoyokyo is Rolmund's state religion?"
But Mao shrugged.
"The Bolsheviks have repeatedly asked for the 'suppression of the Territory of the Territory'. No
Is the Bolshevik family unfamiliar with Teruyo-kyo?
Then, one hypothesis holds.
I was afraid, I tried that hypothesis.
"Is the Bolshevik family a pagan family?"
Elmora and Rolmund think a little.
Then they looked at their faces and nodded greatly.
"It's possible."
It was Borsch, who said so. Natalia is nodding.
Eleora added that.
"Northern Lorumund once had a great pagan power called Polarism. It is now said to have completely disappeared, but maybe ..."
"Oh, I heard from Prince Warroy that the Polars are still there. Duke Bolshevik may be a Polar or a guardian of the Polars."
If the Duke of Bolshevik was a Polar star, resistance to abandoning the pagan Dniesks would be less.
You don't have to be ashamed because abandonment has protected your territory and power, the territory of the Polar Stars.
If so, it would be a little annoying.
"Not good"
Eleora had a serious expression.
"If so, we have a pagan on our side. Unlike Miraludia, Lorumund's Teruyo does not recognize the presence of pagans.
Ryuko responds with a light tone while licking the scones' powdery hands.
"Then, let's call the great of Teruyo-Kyo and say," This guy seems to be a pagan. "
"I'm not a pagan yet, and there's no definitive evidence. The Dniesk family's confidential documents can't be taken lightly."
I'm also worried about the country, which likes the consular system.
It will be a big problem if Bolshevik, a powerful noble, becomes a pagan. In that case, it does not necessarily mean that the fire does not come to Eleora.
Alright, I've decided.
"I think the Lyucco proposal is basically a good idea, but it would be better to do a confirmation survey and circumvention of the upper level of Huiyang religion before that."
"Is it only negotiable? How do you do it?"
Rykko turns around at me in a strange mood. I am glad I was praised.
I threw a scone into my mouth and grabbed my jacket and stood up.
"I'll say hello to the leadership of the Imperial Capital, Teruyo. Eleanor, ask for arrangements. It's better to be as soon as possible. Mao will continue the verification investigation. Leave the way."
"Hey, do you think the great god of Terukyo will meet you?"
Rykko leaned down, but I did wink.
"Even if you look like this, I'm still a saint in Miralardia Teruyoism. I'm a patron saint of pilgrims."
`` Seriously !? You're a wolf !? ''
I've been made a pilgrim's patron saint, thanks to the creation of several shelters fortifications along the Milaldia road.
That was when Eleora was still an enemy.
Eleora nodded and ordered Bolchet.
"Bolshé, contacted Archdiocese Xanahua of the Third Parish. I want to see you today."
"Hah!"
As Bolshe leaves the room, Eleora looks back at me.
"Principal Xanawer is one of the clergy from the eastern Lorumund and backed by the Origanians. With his referral, he will be able to meet some of the Cardinals."
Then Eleora smiled a bit.
"The priest Xanawer can be trusted. He helped Natalia's father in minimizing his accomplices when he was expelled from the Inquisition."
"That would be reliable."
I glance at Natalia.
Natalia looked a little annoyed and smiled at me weakly.
She, her family, and her father's disciples have not yet been completely forgiven, and Eleora has become the underwriter.
If something is related to religion, the Natalia will be in danger.
Those who have trouble in secular will be rescued by clergy, and those who have trouble in religion will be rescued by nobles and royalty.
But the rescue system has its limits. I can't do much.
Eleora seems to have other subordinates in translation, and she is trying to protect her subordinates so that she doesn't go too deeply into Kiyokyo.
If I do stupid things, their position will worsen. Act carefully.
But I'm an unbeliever, so I'm a little anxious ...
