"First of all...... thank you for coming together despite calling you all in this unprecedented way"
Marquis Edfeld...... Marks cut that out toward the round table.
The 'Council of the Horses', in which the Horsemen assemble the King as chairman to determine the great policy of the country.
What is originally called in the name of the king.
However, when for any reason the king did not exist, a provision existed whereby the council of the queens could be convened by a third of the ranks of the queens.
But this council of lords is an unusual scumbag.
In the first place, this is not the King's capital, which should have held the Council of the Hordes, but a room in the Marquis Edfeld residence of Taylakaine.
Moreover, there is only a secretary on this occasion to write down what Marks and the participants have said. What Marks lines up on the round table where he speaks is parchment writing the magic formation.
This is a technique used in telephony stations for remote calls.
Mithrill silver wires are wrapped around parchment to receive a magic supply from the ground vein to compensate for the magic consumption that grows more and more distant.
Most of the lords were reluctant to get out of their castles.
He also hated the fact that the Hordes gathered in one place to stand out.
Because it will be a dressed hunting ground for the "Princess Rose of Grievances" no matter what you think, whether you're on the move or the seats the Horsemen meet together.
So what Marks came up with was a "no gathering meeting" using a telecommunication technique. They say it's the method used from time to time in Noakurio, and when I heard the story, I thought 'Noakurio people do strange things'... but under this circumstance I even thought it was the only absolute handful.
"Our Taylakaine stockpile magic isn't infinite either, so make sure every minute of this meeting is a precious one.
…, we will report from the summary of the preliminary hearing. "
"Please wait, Marquis Edfeld"
In an effort to save time, Marks had previously held written and audio communications hearings on the main agenda.
I tried to read that summary, and the Marquis of Alawen interrupted it.
"Marquis Alawen. As I mentioned earlier, time is limited. Be cautious of irregular statements…"
"Marquis Edfeld. Did the interview say," Do you expect to receive asylum in the Kingdom of Noaculio? "
In view of the current situation, it should be reasonable in itself to carry out an examination. But!
Why don't you look at all the other options! Isn't that as if you were going to go under Noaculio's asylum or do a national reconstruction on your own! Guidance is a good place too!
"That's not all."
It was Count Vinter who raised his voice even more in tune.
"We keep to hearing questions by letter of questioning, and people who are in tune with you are hearing detailed opinions by voice communication. Can you explain what your intentions are? '
"It is tailored to the individual for your convenience…"
'It's important to set national policy! If Sir wants, I have expressed my opinion all day and night!!
Count Vinter's bronze voice echoes.
And that was followed by a number of voices of condemnation on the chain.
'Isn't this story too one-sided!
"In the first place, should we have held the Council of the Horses so forcefully!
"The Noakurio army is caged in the east, but will we protect it on the west side too!?
"Be quiet!
Marks slapped his fist on the round table as he grasped his tongue.
Conferences of the Horsemen convened by the old Hilberto Horsemen, mainly Marks.
Moreover, Marks conducted the 'hearing of opinions' to the extent that it could be said that it was conclusive.
The anti-coup factions and the people close to the Federation in particular had been blatantly slandered. Their distrust had reached its pinnacle from the beginning.
"May I, time is precious!
I want you to listen to me first. After that, I'll take your time to speak. "
And Marks read out the material at hand.
Firstly, “Princess Rose of Grievances” measures, regardless of what you put aside. After the Wang capital, three of the marquis have already been attacked and destroyed and taken over by the territorial capital. It is obvious that domestic forces alone cannot combat this, and if only as a measure of "Princess Rose of Grievances", few were opposed to obtaining the cooperation of the Noaculio army already in the country.
And the next important thing is to rebuild the government. Marks was also soliciting opinions on this.
Not only was Hilberto killed (although the death was not clearly confirmed, it is considered already dead in the circumstances), but many court ministers and officials were murdered for falling into the King's capital. There are no flags, and there are no human resources to keep the administrative machinery.
Seeing the opinions that have come up from the Horsemen conveys the confusion that they do not know what to do.
There are also dramatic opinions about the transition from the Hordes to a suffrage kingdom that elects its occasional kings, and about the desire to become part of the Noakurio-Gilleshhattar Federation and to protect it.
But there are just a few who brace their bellies that far. The great ones seemed to want to continue their previous form of state with inertia. I mean...
"We need a king."
Marks said clearly.
"We are hunted down to the point where we can no longer do anything on our own.
But there's nothing we can do about asking for help from other countries, in a situation where the Hordes are saying something different to each other. What do you call a representative, but you still have to set up a king? "
'... but who?
There's a voice of doubt, and Marks laughs damned.
No one wants to be king at a time like this. It's the kind of place that goes from the front to the big avalanche that pushes.
But it has nothing to do with the King of Marks.
"Succession to the current throne, Zislan“ Like Fire (Blaze) "- Your Highness Ella Ciel-Teira has decided to be awakened as a new king. Let me help His Highness with this, too, with a slight force.
His Royal Highness is united with the kingdom of Noaculio and wishes to join forces to protect the land and the people. "
Silence.
And the marquis exploded.
"What!?
'What do you mean!
"Zislan!?
'Is it true!?
A few scream in incredible ways.
Zislan is certainly the current 'first successor to the throne' (not officially status), but he had almost no indication of his political position, whether foreign or internal, and had an attitude that distanced him from any of his political grievances. The assessment of a book bug just quietly entering academia was well established.
That's why it was surprising (for those who hadn't heard from Marks beforehand) to come out here as soon as possible.
"You were gathered together with this intention from the beginning, Marquis Edfeld!
"No. I was in a position to know Your Highness's intentions, so I just took this opportunity to put it in your ears. His Royal Highness Zislan has not yet officially run for the throne, and that is all that is left to be said if he were to run for the throne in addition to His Royal Highness Zislan, he would choose a new king by the Council of the Hordes again."
Marks said well, but the Marquis Edfeld took the initiative for what he said about Zislan's intentions on this occasion when he gathered the ears of the Hordes.
Zislan is unknown for his political abilities, but he's impeccable on the bloodstream.
The upcoming political agenda could be a weaving of Zislan's reign. As long as there is no impact that will significantly change the flow, it will become the default route.
And if Zislan takes office, Marks, who also declared that he would be Zislan's mother's home and guardian, would be able to show great political power.
For those who were politically distant from the Marquis Edfeld family (especially those who were anti-coups), this was a nightmare. They take the political currents completely and push them into a cold eating position. The scenario that should have been avoided by Hilberto's death returns.
"Your Highness will now officially be speaking to you."
'... don't be ridiculous!
"Are you sure Your Highness has been told you will be king!?
"Absolutely. That's fine if you say it's hard to believe, but I was wondering if it would be a good idea to hear His Highness's words first before judging."
Those who raise their voices of suspicion are also silenced by Marks' confident attitude.
It's not haphazard.
That's what Zislan really says, so there's nothing wrong with that.
And silence flows.
Marks found out that the complexion of the gods, who were not supposed to be in front of him, was in his hands.
There are those who are in a heavy mood for silence about what is going to happen, and there are those who laugh, "Look at the things."
The political balance of power in the country was about to be turned upside down by Hilberto's death. Marks moved to pull it back again.
"If you think for all the people... you should be grateful for His Highness's decision"
Breaking the silence was the voice of a tanned man.
The stubborn character of the square shows up to the voice.
- Oh, this is unexpected again...
Oswald Mical Keeley.
By the time I was stubborn, I was a man who didn't give a coup.
Loyalty to King Elbert. Close to the Federation, Marks, a former Hilberto, held Noakurio in the back shield. Marks wondered if he would rebel hard against Zislan.
"Count Keeley, it's..."
"I cannot do good that my country will be disturbed without a king.
Besides, now that His Majesty King Hilberto II has been removed without a successor nomination, the new King will reign only with the approval of the Crown. If anyone else raises their name, they will not be prevented.
I'm not talking about winning early, so it's not like His Highness Zislan cheated. '
"Exactly."
Marks was likely to scream and applaud pleasure, even as he responded.
Earl Keeley is right in front of the building. And that was what Marks was supposed to say, but it really helped me to say it from Count Keeley, who seemed like a troublesome enemy.
Count Keeley is an officer-gutted man who doesn't accommodate anywhere. With that in mind, maybe his remarks are natural.
But what Count Keeley tells us is a dream story.
If anyone else runs besides Zislan, including a large number of leading men, Marks, who has embraced the majority of the gods... that means Zislan cannot be defeated. By giving Zislan's name on this occasion, the middlemen will also fall for Zislan.
The next Conference of the Hordes will be a ceremony to grant legitimacy to the throne of Zislan. And I know perhaps Count Keeley does, too. But Count Keeley, who values procedure and legitimacy, can only say it that way.
"Marquis Edfeld. This only confirms the obvious, but the authority of diplomacy is pooled on the King. You will no longer exchange promises of state-to-country on your own in the absence of a king, will you?
"Of course it is.
Nevertheless, there is an emergency now. In order to protect the people, it can't be that we don't talk to other countries at all.
Dialogue and negotiation within common sense seems to be the right thing to do. "
"Yes, sir."
I guess I fear that the kingdom of Noaculio will strengthen its influence as it is. Count Keeley stabbing the nail, all the resistance at least.
Marks responded with pre-construction and general theory.
He's a stupid man, mocking in his heart.
