Episode 18: Fatal Failure

"And that scumbag is definitely thinking"

"... ho, is that true? Renalier...... don't you think too much? You seemed like a very kind young man..."

The king of the kingdom of Hayastan, Frates III, praises Renalier.

Because of this, I want to tell you not to give me water even though an alliance is formed.

"No, that man will definitely betray you"

"How can you say that?

'Cause I do the same thing.

The Kingdom of Hayastan is a small country.

Promises made by small and large countries have rarely been kept properly.

The covenants and arrangements between the great powers take precedence over any oath or treaty.

That's the thing about diplomacy.

"But I won't let you. I cannot forgive you for dividing the kingdom of Hayastan."

Lunarier loves the Kingdom of Hayastan.

And the people of the kingdom of Hayastan also loved the Lunariers, the kings, and the kingdoms.

It would be incomprehensible to the people of Fars and Lemuria, the great powers.

How does it feel to be a small country where royalty, nobility and civilians can't be sustained without joining forces?

Originally, the area now ruled by the Akaimenes Farse kingdom was placed under the control of the Alshark Farse kingdom a long time ago and came to be ruled by the Alsharks.

This Alshark kingdom of Fars was large enough to bump into the Lemurian Empire many times during its full season, before the division between East and West.

It was Hayastan that became such a disputed place between the Alshark kingdom of Fars and the Lemurian Empire.

Around this Hayastan land, the two countries confronted each other violently.

but peace was eventually made.

That's it.

"The king of the kingdom of Hayastan shall be chosen by King Farth from the House of Alshark (Alshark dynasty), appointed by Emperor Lemuria as king, crowned by Emperor Lemuria or his deputy"

It is a treaty that

The kingdom of Hayastan was founded in the Alshark dynasty.

But only when, the kingdom of the Alshark Phallus is in decline.

In the meantime, in the nobility of the kingdom of Alshark, the Akaimenez family, which had great power, rose up and defeated the kingdom of Alshark, and the current Akaimenez Pharus kingdom was founded.

The Lemurian Empire of the Pledge of Request was confused and weakened in the civil war.

In the meantime, the Alsharks leaned against the Hayastans in order to maintain their country while somehow surviving as the kingdom of the Akaimenese Pharus.

The Alsharks dared to mix human (human) blood while the Lemurian Empire and the Farse kingdom's long-eared (elves) were making strides in maintaining pure blood, trying to assimilate.

And the people of the kingdom of Hayastan also supported the House of Alshark to defend the country.

That is the kingdom of Hayastan in the Alshark dynasty.

By the way, the Kingdom of Hayastan is the first country in the world to have nationalized Mesianism, and both Renalier and Frates III are Mesians.

"But Renalier. What are we gonna do?... our country has no power to defy the decisions of Lemuria or Farth?

"Easy. I wish there was a stronger link between Lemuria and Hayastan"

"Specifically?

Then Renalier strained his chest.

"I'll drop it with a color trick. And get married. If you're inside, you can't betray Emperor Lemuria just as well. If I cut and sold my wife's country of origin, it would definitely be a scandal"

What are you talking about, this guy?

Frates III doubted his ears.

"Vahan, did you blow something in?

"Your Majesty, no matter how much, I will not recklessly tell Her Royal Highness to 'do the colour trick' or anything else"

Scattered by his own parents and grandfather, Renalier distorted his face in a musty manner.

"I have boobs. Um, bigger than Emperor Lemuria's fiancée named Carolina. I'm winning."

That's what Renalier says and stretches his chest.

Frates III and Vahan look at Renalier's breasts and smile bitterly.

I do have big tits.

The Long-Eared (Elves) like tits. So, well, I have no problems with my body.

And...

Parental fool, Lunarier looks very beautiful, whether you consider him to be a grandfather fool or from the eyes of both of us.

But...

"Talk..."

"A little more facial expression..."

"The trick has to be cute"

"I can't chant a single poem..."

Renalier was fatally flawed with something called 'love'.

Besides, I can't properly make "poetry," which is a must-have skill in aristocratic romance in this world.

And silent.

or can we talk about something to please a man...

"You can only talk about academics."

"Is the rest political and military... hmm..."

I see, some people might be interested.

But can you develop into a relationship with this?

If we could, that would be quite the best couple.

In the first place...

Not a very smart woman is unfortunately not hot.

Sometimes it seems clever.

Regardless, some men prefer educated women, so I can't say it at all.

"... then you just have to watch. Let it fall and show with my hue."

The next night the Lemurian Imperial Army entered Elstadt.

In the palace of the kingdom of Hayastan there was a feast to welcome the generals below Elkhur.

All of a sudden, the dishes arranged could never be described as lavish, and again the flavors were not as good as the court dishes of the Lemurian Empire...

Still, Erkühl felt a strong intention to do something to get in the mood rather than to welcome the Kingdom of Hayastan… and he was grateful for that.

Unlike the Lemurian Empire, in the Kingdom of Hayastan meals are arranged on carpets laid on the floor.

Side dishes per person, about four plates.

And the main dish is put on a large plate, one for each of the three to four.

Side dishes eat dishes assigned to them, and main dishes are transferred from large plates to small plates for eating.

That's the style.

By the way...

The Kingdom of Hayastan has no utensils.

Basic, eat with a grasp of your hand.

From the Japanese, it feels like barbarity... but 40% of the world's population on Earth eats by hand in the first place, so it's nothing unusual or anything.

The Lemurian Empire, where forks and knives exist rather, is more perverse and can be described as barbaric, as there are more overwhelming cultural areas in this world that eat by hand grasping.

Note that knives and forks exist to separate large plates of dishes.

Upon entering the town, Erkühl follows the town, and since he is a person of, he is not going to defend the style of the Lemurian Empire until he comes to the Kingdom of Hayastan, let alone think about using chopsticks at all.

Without paying particular attention, grab the main dish "Stuffed with Meat Vanilla", which the servant cut into pieces, and chew a thousand pieces.

The gravy and the good smell of vanilla overflow from inside.

"This meat is delicious...... is it a bird? King Hayastan."

"Yeah, it's a specialty of our country. It is the meat of Hayastan pigeons, a bird that lives in the eastern part of our country (...)"

(Heh... that happens to be the area I'm thinking of assigning to the Farth Kingdom!!

Elquille thinks it would be a coincidence, hammering and then drinking wine.

"It's not the right season right now...... the eggs are excellent too. Be sure to visit our country next time, not in time of war, but in normal times. At that time, we will treat you to Hayatan pigeon eggs that can be picked in the eastern part of our country (...)"

"... that's exciting"

Oddly enough, this guy, don't highlight the east.

Erkühr feels uncomfortable while trying to mouth the wine… he realizes it is empty.

Then...

"... go ahead"

"Thanks for this."

Renalier pours wine into an empty Elquille wine glass.

Elquille meets lightly and responds.

"Go ahead, and Princess Lunarier."

"Thank you"

Elquille poured wine into Renalier's glass in return.

(But that's a pretty exposed outfit.)

Elquille looks at Renalier's wide open chest.

The fabric of the clothes is also thin and the skin looks clear.

Very large for the Long Ear Clan (Elves)...

In Elquille's view, C to D are very colorful, as are certain breast sizes.

"How about wine in our country?

"It's very tasty. Especially the scent is wonderful"

What do you say? That's not good to hear! There is no asshole to answer that.

Erkühr gives an extremely difficult answer.

Most of all, there is no lie in the very feeling that it is delicious.

That is also true, because this wine is the best made in the Kingdom of Hayastan over the last 200 years.

Even Frates III is a rarely drinkable substitute.

I have trouble if it doesn't taste good.

"This wine was made in the southern (...) vineyards of our country"

"Heh..."

Elquille hammers at Renalier's words.

That's right. I'll notice if they say so much about Elquille.

Frates III, two Renaliers realize that Erkühl intends to divide the kingdom of Hayastan from the kingdom of Fars.

That's why we're holding back.

… but as an elkür, it is nothing more than an unrivalled resistance of the small and weak countries in which it is conceived.

Whatever Hayastan may resist, it is a definitive matter in Elkhur to share the kingdom of Pharus with its territory.

The remaining western half was about twenty or thirty years later, when most of them cooled down...

I intend to incorporate it as a subordinate state of the Lemurian Empire.

It can be easily accomplished by acquiring the Hayatan nobility and sending immigrants to lemurize Hayastan.

The bad news is the Hayatans who built their country halfway there.

The problem remains with the Alsharks...

It's troublesome when you're resisted, so it's quick to assassinate or make up the proper sin and kill you.

If you hear from the Akaimenes that the Yulianos have disposed of the previous home, the Alsharks, you will be very pleased with it, even though you criticize it with your mouth.

Both Lemuria and Farth can draw just fine border lines, and in addition, disturbing lineages for both sides disappear.

Exactly winwin.

... from the Alshark family, the kingdom of Hayastan. It's a nuisance though.

(... but Princess Renalier is a shame to kill. "

She's cute and horny...

Nevertheless, that is the story of the kingdom of Hayastan after it was nationalised, subordinated and statehood...... moreover, after it was reconciled with Fars.

"Yeah, well, what's it like to talk about this in a booze seat... actually, there's something I'd like you two to do"

"What would that be like?

Frates III asks Elquille.

It was entirely a symbol of monarchy and subordination and a true story of the disparities in national and military power between the two countries.

"After this, I intend to attack Arsinia in the Kingdom of Falls with all the armies (...)"

"Why in the whole army?"

The face of Frates III attracts me.

Because if all the armies of the Lemurian Empire attack Arsinia, the kingdom of Hayastan will be naked again.

Before I betrayed him from the kingdom of Pharus and turned back to the Lemurian Empire......

It is obvious that it would not be free if it were conquered again by the kingdom of Pharus.

Well, it doesn't matter from Elquille.

"So, I would like you to give directions (...) to either Frates III or Lunarier"

"Mi, are you directing..."

In short, Erkühr tells us to take hostages.

Erkühl attacks Arsinia because Arsinia is adjacent to Shria, a province belonging to the Lemurian Empire.

If we attack the province of Arsinia and secure the opposite bank of the river Dajra Frato, Erkühl will be able to obtain a link to the Lemurian Empire.

Then it will be clear and the kingdom of Hayastan will be exhausted.

The problem is that the kingdom of Hayastan could again do bat diplomacy and turn back to the kingdom of Fars before Erkühl secures a line of communication.

Although the Kingdom of Hayastan does not possess an army, and the weapons left behind by the Pharus Army are really round hips because Erkühl became obsessed with them and recovered them.

Just in case.

Neither the King nor his only daughter, if they are imprisoned by Erkühl, will the Kingdom of Hayastan be able to go into far-fetched action.

"Rest assured. If our country attacks the province of Arsinia, all the armies of the kingdom of Fars will assemble in the province of Arsinia. The kingdom of Hayastan will not be attacked."

Probably.

Elquille added in her heart.

"... even if your father, the king, can't leave the country. I'll show you the way."

Renalier leads the way, no, I raise my name to the hostage.

Elquille smiles.

"Thank you for this. I didn't expect a beautiful woman like you to show me the way. We will surely be able to reach victory" (well, the king won't just come, and you're right)

Renalier is the only daughter of Frates III.

While Erkühr is securing Renalier's stature, he won't do anything far-fetched.

"Oh, um... Your Majesty the Emperor. Can we not be accompanied by our country's courageous army? It's about 5000, but I'm sure to help His Majesty..."

"Your Majesty, King Hayastan, I am delighted to hear that you... will not be able to follow the march speed of our army in the brave army"

Patriotism alone, the army cannot move.

It would only be a foothold.

"So, then..."

"Rest assured. Princess Renalier is my army and I are responsible for, and will protect. So there is no need for any escort from the Kingdom of Hayastan (...)"

If they say so far, Frates III will no longer be able to even accompany Renalier's escort.

Because if you try to get an escort, it's like saying, "I don't trust the Lemurian Empire".

Assuming Elquille cares about it...

Even now, the Lemurian army can loot Elstadt, kill men, commit women, sell children as slaves, and ruin Elstadt.

He kills Frates III and can make Renalier a soldier's comforter or his own sex slave.

Most importantly, I just care about the scandal and I don't do that much worse...

There's nothing I can't do.

So instead of defying Elquille, Frates III can't even undermine that mood.

No, should I rephrase that I don't have the courage?

And the feast of the day ended.

Erkühr is feeling very drunk and on the floor...

And...

"... What's this all about?

The next morning.

He's putting a restful sleep on his face as he hugs him in his arms, looking down at Renalier and squealing.

For some reason, the sheet had a red stain.

"... Oh, that? Did I, like, grow up with a girl?

A cold sweat conveyed Elquille's back.
