Running Away From The Hero!

Ambition - Memories of a Maiden (90)

# 115 Their Reason: A Villain's Reason

The Kingdom of Mercia, these bastards are not helping.

“You know what that means, right? ”

The opponent is called an enemy, but he is a nobleman.

Except for Duke Laisha, who is now one of the finest monarchs in the kingdom, because Duke Laisha has fallen in reverse.

It will be hard for nobles to bear to look down on the enemies, even those who had not been ordinary until recently.

“That's right.”

But I endured it.

I don't know if my nature is gentle or patient for the kingdom of Mercia, but I endured it without a change in my face.

“Huh, don't you have any pride? ”

“That's the situation with my kingdom. In that case, you can lose your country's name. ”

I have nothing to say, which I admitted to the grave.

A master. I met a master much better than I.

“Isn't it more noble to resist to the end? Is there no honor in the Kingdom of Mercia? ”

However, there is no stopping the taunt.

To be more honest, I need you to hold out until the end.

That should buy us some time!

“It's over when you die. So you have to live. ”

However, if the target doesn't catch it, it's meaningless.

It was also the kingdom of Mercia called the Great Kingdom.

I thought I killed everyone famous in the war, but where else did I get this guy?

“Is that so?"

“That's right.”

A sigh came out of my mind.

Dammit, John Burke has crossed the water in the Kingdom of Mercia.

“Even if I have crazy conditions here? ”

“Wouldn't that be better than being fucked up?” “In the end, it's the same thing that's going down. ”

“Who knows? The war will continue and the Karean Empire will fall. ”

“That's right. If it goes bad, the deal goes through. ”

“Yes, it is. So I'm going to hold on to a little hope. ”

I decided to pay my respects to the nobles of the enemy kingdom who smile openly and say that they want the empire to fall.

“I can't help it. ”

I'd rather just wipe out the all-out war and provoke the rebellion to rise throughout the Kingdom of Mercia, but I decided to let it go.

“Then let the negotiations begin. ”

“I understand.”

Leading the negotiation was me holding the knife sack.

That's why the other person sat still and listened to me.

“Is that really enough? ”

The more you proceed with negotiations, the more unreliable the opponent looks.

“Why, do I need to rip it out more? ”

“No, I'm not.”

Surrendering completely meant accepting anything.

His goal is to prevent ridiculous demands.

But that wasn't my goal.

“Then, shall we go on? ”

“Oh, I see. ”

I have a strange look on my face, but I also have no choice.

The more I tear out of here, the more I will accomplish.

If you build an achievement, you will have more work and if you do wrong, you will get the title of Earl.

An apparent nobleman from the earl.

I'm going up to a position that can be recognized as a real nobleman in the commons who have fortunately become nobles.

Noble.I 'm a real nobleman!

I don't want to be a noble who was born as a noble and lived well since childhood.

Well, at least if it comes out like this, we should sell the princess' name a little.

“It is thanks to Her Majesty, the merciful Queen Dowager, who has not given up until the end. Thank the king for his mercy. ”

“I understand.”

It is not giving medicine or giving illness. It is telling the person who destroyed the country to say thank you.

But I can't help it.

The kingdom of Mercia is powerless.

Even if we create Governor Karan in the middle of the capital, the Kingdom of Mercia, just like in the days of the old days of power, we cannot resist.

Well, you don't have to.

“Well, I guess we'll just have to sort out the rewards and responsibilities here, and then we'll talk. ”

“After that...”

Pretending not to, but wary of faces and voices.

It was a bit confusing to me that I had maintained Pokerface so far.

“I'm fine.”

Now, I saw his face as if the real thing had started, and I smiled at him in the sense that he didn't have to worry.

“It's nothing. ”

It's really no big deal.

Stealing something from the Kingdom of Mercia doesn't include unfair treaties.

Rather, it will preserve the long history of the Kingdom of Mercia.

“There's only one thing we want. Peace."

“Peace……? ”

As if from the mouth of the evil god we all should love peace, I gave him a brighter look than before.

“Yes, it is. The only thing we want is peace. ”

Love and Piece.

Only love and peace can make people happy in this barren world!

# 116 Their Reason: The Reason of a Noble.

“ …… ”

It was a dreadful feeling.

I've dealt with a lot of Humans, but I've never seen one.

A few years ago, a man like that would have been an ordinary man.

I honestly couldn't believe it.

It was more convincing to say it was a secret weapon that had been hidden in the Empire for a long time.

“How do I do this...”

Even in the beginning, I thought I made the other person dry.

I tried to humiliate myself as a nobleman and crush the kingdom of Mercia, my own country.

Those who take pride in the kingdom and those who are still in high spirits cannot tolerate insults.

But as a nobleman, I endured it as the heiress of the late Prince Pavilles who endured a long history.

A family with a long history.

It was that powerful power is also power, but it can bend pride as much as it wants depending on the situation.

Honor is important to nobles.

Even though the ranks were low, those with the highest ranks would come to us, and even though the ranks were high, if they didn't know the ranks as nobles, they would have to leave the mainstream.

Representative Yega Reisha Duke family.

Duke Raisha tried to put in a word for every nobleman.

Even the rival Marquis family had to bow their heads in the official position.

But, Duke of current Laisha.

Relligius, who is now nothing but a traitor, has been banished by all the nobles despite his enormous background as the Duke of Lycia.

Those who cling to him were the bugs who were destined to attain great power as the Duke of Lycia and those who were graciously trying to revive him somehow.

The nobles with some power, as well as the nobles who were sensitive to power and honor, did not approach him.

Even though they have the same power and power, the opposite result.

That was the difference between knowing honor and not knowing it.

But aristocracy is a very complicated society.

It is not a pleasant place to survive on your own honour.

Honor never rises.

Expectations increase as much as they do, and if they don't meet expectations, they fall.

Like the Duke of Raisha, it was strange to have remained a virgin from the beginning of the kingdom until the death of Duke of Raisha.

I was rebuked by a family of similar size, rebuked by the royal family.

Sometimes the people who come up from below fall down on their ankles.

Nevertheless, the Marquis Pavilles' family survived and was able to aim for the best position because he kept the foundation of the family unshakeable when he was strong, and when he was weak, he abandoned his pride and kept it.

The last man standing wins.

Now that the Marquis family knows about it, they've been able to hold on and hold on until now.

Therefore, Baez, who holds the reins of the kingdom, excluded those in charge of diplomacy and asked me to negotiate with the enemy.

The Kingdom of Mercia was once a mighty kingdom, and it did not bend its pride to two empires that existed on the continent.

The user is at risk of provoking the target holding the scabbard for nothing.

“Damn it...”

The main reason I was chosen was because I had a good relationship with the royal family compared to the other Marquis family.

And of all the nobles in the kingdom, there was no change in face, and they were good at negotiating.

“I never thought I'd be attacked like this. ”

Everything was as planned.

No, it went better than expected.

Though he demanded a large amount of battlefield compensation and continued tribute, it was expected to be a losing country.

Rather, I doubted whether the empire princess would show mercy, as the other party said, for an unreasonably small amount.

However, subsequent negotiations.

Everything got twisted in that negotiation.

“... speed up. ”

“I understand.”

Instruct the wagon dragging the wagon to speed up.

Once I had filled out the paperwork for the end of the war, this was beyond my scope of judgment.

As it was a contract with the great nation, I pushed a few contracts into Gears Roll.

Once a contract is signed, it is a contract that must be kept unless one of them fails.

Baez gave me all the power, but Astra surpassed my judgment, so I was forced to return to the kingdom as soon as possible.

“How did the negotiation go, Earl Pavilles?" ”

“We were able to save 60 percent on our projections. ”

“Oh!”

When I arrived at the castle, I went straight to the meeting hall awaited by the King's proxy, Baez, and many nobles.

Baez and the other nobles were also looking at me as if they were waiting for me, and they all cheered on the first word I took out.

“As expected, Earl Pavilles! ”

“I believed in the Marquis of Diplomacy! ”

“That should restore the kingdom to its former glory. ”

Many nobles began to praise me.

It was such an achievement.

In the meantime, the Foreign Ministry has been able to halve the expected cost of the right line.

“Is that so...”

Baez sighs of relief, and the other baroness nods gracefully.

Of course, as soon as I leave here, I'm going to swear.

“Well done, well done. ”

Baez spoke to me in a very gentle voice, unlike usual.

I did some good work, but only because he promised to make my daughter his government if he succeeded.

Not right now, but the next queen is definitely a seat.

Although he was already married as a royal, considering the greatness of the family, he could have been the grandfather of the next king.

That's why I don't want to say this.

As soon as I say this, I'm sure this atmosphere will break.

But I had no choice but to say it.

“Instead, they offered one unusual condition. ”

“Condition? What is it? ”

As soon as I heard the terms, Baaeth's eyes cooled.

It was a long time ago that we decided to surrender.

After surrendering now, everyone gathered to negotiate with the Empire after deciding to surrender.

At that time, we said some of the worst conditions we could think of, and some of them were said to fight until the moment of destruction.

“That's...”

That's why Baaes must have made that face.

The other nobles kept their mouths shut and only looked at my mouth.

But...

“The resurrection of the Duke of Lycia. ”

The Empire, Astra.

We overturned everything we expected.

“What?"

“What does that mean? ”

“Are you... going to send Religious back alive?! ”

Scary words poured out from everywhere.

The Duke of Lycia.

A family that shared the history of the Kingdom, but in those days was reversed and everyone involved died.

The Empire hopes to revive the family and raise Duke Lycia as its household.

“I wrote it down on the Gears Roll. This contract will remain in place until the Duke of Lydia is not destroyed. ”

That is, the moment the Duke of Lycia's family disappears, the empire will be able to attack us again.

“That means...”

“An inverse Religious will live as a duc in this country. ”

“Huh...”

Baaace's mouth is wide open in an unexpected surprise.

That's what I must have looked like when I first heard this story.

Who will refuse great gain and aid the Duke of the enemy?

“Should we... leave that bastard alone?" As the finest nobleman in the Duke's family! ”

I was able to understand how Baez felt about it.

The role of a man named Religious was great in the downfall of this country.

After all the torture, you're supposed to keep him alive at the gates of the castle as a duck!

“What would you do?”

But if we don't save Religious, the Kingdom of Mercia is doomed.

“ …… ”

Knowing that, Bayes also kept his mouth shut and thought.

You want to kill Relligius if you feel the need.

But we can't kill that relligius.

Religious is in the hands of the Empire, not us!

“I... accept the Empire's offer." ”

With a very distressing look on his face, Baaeth decides.

Live. Humiliated, but alive.

That way we can discuss it tomorrow.

If only we could survive the fall of the Empire.

Not only will I avenge the Empire, but I will avenge the blood of Religious!

“To live. ”

With such angled eyes, Baaeth looks at us.

“Does anyone refuse? ”

“ …… ”

“ …… ”

“ …… ”

He is still a young king, or a successor to the throne, but not all nobles could resist the word of Baez.

“Then I'm sure we can all agree. Earl Pavilles.”

“Yes, Your Grace. ”

I already have the royal seal.

The moment I go and seal the royal seal in my arms, this war will be over.

“Everything for the glory of the kingdom. ”

“For glory. ”

As long as you are human, you don't know what the future holds.

It's the descendants of the future that are evaluating what we've done now.

I don't know what kind of rating this choice is going to be...

In order to capture even the smallest hope, we decided to survive.

# 117 Their Reason: A book on the history of a kingdom.

- That concludes the treaty with the Empire, and ends the war with many dead.

And now more than a hundred years later.

Everyone in the kingdom says,

If the country had been ruined back then, it wouldn't have been like this!
