Reincarnation Monarch

Lesson Six, Counsellor Shester.

One.

The Valentine's Republic is located on the southern shore of the continent of Melissa, the capital of the Deal.

The continent of Melissa is the largest and most fertile continent in the world and was more indispensable to the species of strife than in ancient times.

Today its continent of Melissa was divided and governed by the three powers for the most part.

The Kingdom of Dallas boasts the oldest history in the world with western and northwestern continents.

The United Kingdom of Raidham, an emerging country that dominates the east to northeast of the continent.

And the world's largest nation, the Pope Roenglin, which covers the central part of the continent.

Neighbouring countries such as Valentin have always been caught up in the vortex of war and plot by these three powers.

But that, if we were able to stand around well, could increase our voice in diplomacy, increase trade volumes, and sometimes lead to territorial expansion.

Valentin has so far increased his national power and expanded his territory on a small scale.

That said, the territory was dotted with fine cuts (komagi), and although it had succeeded in forming trading bases everywhere, it was not comparable to the three major countries in terms of area and population.

Valentin, however, unfortunately demonstrated his identity as a maritime state, which was comparable to the three powers in terms of naval strength and transaction volume.

Elmur is a subordinate state with the largest trading volume in such Valentin.

Naturally, it is of paramount importance to Valentin, but there was another reason for Elmur to be valued.

That was the geopolitical importance of being bordered by two major powers: Lowenglin and Raydam.

The two powers now define the long-standing Great River, the Altarte River, with the world's second-largest basin area, as the southern border of their respective countries.

Elmur is located at the mouth of the Altarte River.

For this reason, its importance was out of group in Valentin, and all the bureaucrats who went to the land were very competent.

Among other things, it can be said that the expectations of Councillor Lombardo Schneider, who had just become a bureaucrat and was suddenly ordered to take up his assignment to the land, were enormous.

Valentin is not a big country enough for such personnel to be executed solely by the gold sign of his prestigious origin.

You can say that the personal fame of the sailors brought him to the land.

Eight years had already passed since Lombardo took office in this Elmur.

Two.

"Good morning. Councillor."

A little around 9: 00 a.m., Lombardo arrived at a five-story modern government in White Asia.

And as he entered his own office on the third floor, his secretary, Cordesia, greeted him brightly.

"Morning. Looks like you're busy today. Or free time. If I could, I'd appreciate the latter."

Cordesia then replied to Lombardo with a full grin.

"Congratulations. I know you're free today."

"I appreciate that. Well, come on, but let me take a nap."

At the moment Lombardo said so and sat down in his favorite chair and tried to knock his back down, an intruder appeared indoors.

"That's not going to happen. Councillor."

"If you think of someone, what is it with you? Counsellor Shester."

It was Lombardo's direct report who came in, and Counsellor Helmut Shester, the pitiful cutter he also asks for his right arm.

"That's a lot of rhetoric again about what you are. I told you I brought you an interesting story."

"Well, I'm sorry about that. Let me hear that story."

With that said, with his right hand, Lombardo pointed to the chair across the street and urged him to sit in Chester.

"You have no choice."

Saying so, Chester sat back in the chair in a slow motion, facing Lombardo.

"Now you know the story that King Cyrus of the United Kingdom of Raidham is about to leave office soon because of his very old age, and that the new king is going to reign instead, right?

Lombardo gently pulled his jaw and nodded.

"As a result, there was an intensification of intra-court protests within the United Kingdom over who would be the new king… I wonder if the key Cyrus king was removed before that protest was settled…"

"What!? Dead? What makes you think that?

"Yes, because a large transport ship of the Raydom registry entered the port last night, and as soon as it docked, I was in a hurry to load it up and just left for Raydom, wondering if I could buy a lot of Arquez flowers. In their haste at the time of buying, the wholesaler of flowers seemed to have plucked the price considerably, but they drank it without a bare gesture of price. So it turned out to be quite a lot of business, and it was a big topic in the harbor."

"I see. But only in Raydam, if the noble dies, would the flowers of Arquez be laid under the coffin, and the participants would donate flowers to cover the coffin."

"Yep. I would use sansa flowers in the case of ordinary people. The flowers of Arquez are only for the occasion of the special. That would mean you'd be even more special if you filled a large transport ship."

"But the people of Raydam aren't ready either. If you do that all of a sudden, a guy like you won't be able to help you get rid of the king."

"That's a lot of rhetoric again with guys like you. Well, that's fine. It's a little harsh to blame them. Because King Cyrus was well until the other day."

"Really? Weren't we talking about getting out of position because your medical condition got worse?

"You're not. King Cyrus was not sick or anything. However, he will be eighty years old next year, and the King himself has offered to leave the country in order to do business in the future, at which point he has no health concerns at all."

"Then suddenly... no way..."

"Yeah. That's why I doubt it. King Cyrus is worthy of the alias" Wu Wang ", who more than his youth ran around the battlefield and spent much of his reign on the battlefield. Though old, I hear he was still proud of his robust flesh, and his intelligence could not have diminished. It was the king himself who gave the evidence of his departure. In the midst of the many people who seemed to think only of clinging to power, I saw the future of Raydam, and the king himself offered to leave. Perhaps it was a declaration of exit to identify what movements would wind up within the court, who would be worthy of a successor and who would be better placed as a guardian"

"But before that, you fell on the murder blade..."

"I would have made some predictions... but it would mean they were better at one"

"... do you have any idea who the assassin is?

"Too many to see."

Lombardo sighed one loud sigh, then meditated (groaned).

It was a silent prayer to the great Wu King.

And when he realized it, Chester also offered his meditation and condolences.

After a long silence, Lombardo opened his eyes and asked Chester.

"But the sons of King Cyrus had no men, they were all princesses."

"Yes, there are five princesses."

"So it's one of the grandchildren who's going to succeed you?"

"Yes, there are only ten leading candidates."

Lombardo raised his dismay when he heard it.

"Ten! There's way too much for anything!

"Yeah, we can't all wear them in a bad way."

"Are we all bad... is that what King Cyrus got lost in?"

"Yeah. You must have been greatly confused about who to choose. He didn't show much interest in what was going on in the courtroom because he was running around the battlefield, but didn't he dismay his successors when he became"

"I don't know if I was feeling vain..."

Lombardo took into account King Wu's mood (tits), but changed his mind and asked Chester.

"So what do you think will happen to Raydom in the future? Let me know what you think."

"Perhaps the king's demise will be hidden. You can't even make it public until you've decided on a new king. As soon as the new king is decided, the removal of King Cyrus and the reign of the new king will be announced. You have no idea how much blood will be shed in the court by then."

"There will be a lot of blood if there are ten successors."

"I'm telling you, like all other personnel, wasn't your wife's home a great nobleman, Raydam?

"Oh. But I hear that my wife's father, the current Lord Marquis Hausen Lipstadt, stands apart from the court in the territory. The same goes for those in the clan. So you won't have to worry."

"That's a wise thing to do.

"Oh. Right."

Then there came the secretary Cordesia, freshly brewed tea with all the hot air rising.

Lombardo slowed down the hot tea as he alternately looked at the secretary who had brought the tea in anticipation of the timing in order not to break the hips of the talk and the men who had presented the brilliant reflection earlier, appreciating the situation surrounded by the men who could.
