"Ok, ok..."

Face to face, say so, Marquis.

Well, if it's a general story that has nothing to do with political judgment or the specific actions of the military, with the degree of information readily available from spies, insiders, grass (settled as general residents on enemy land, informants) or anything else that the enemy side has misled into the city well, it wouldn't be a problem to tell me otherwise.

Around there, even if it's a marquis, it'll add and subtract well.

So let me talk to you...

According to the Marquis' story, the Kingdom of Noral, a country about three other countries sandwiched east of this country, has given a little bit to this country, the Kingdom of Vanel.

Originally hostile to the kingdom of Vanel, the Noral kingdom with a rival stake in Moro seems to be competing with the kingdom of Vanel in terms of naval power, and the kingdom of Vanel is rubbing a lot due to its influence over the surrounding countries and its dominance over the colonies.

And right now, he said, one colonial rights struggle had led to a particularly dire situation, but he finally crossed the line.

In order to take control of the colonies of the Kingdom of Vanel, the Kingdom of Noral forced the merchant ships that first carried supplies from the colonies to the Kingdom of Vanel to continue to raid the private looters of the Kingdom of Noral. And we have been accusing the warships of the kingdom of Vanel of 'attacking civilian ships in our country' in an attempt to stop it.

"Of course, other countries are laughing, but it's not like they give us a hand or a mouth for our country.

For the Noral Kingdom, it's just good to have an excuse, so it doesn't matter whether it's justified or not. … it would have been quite profitable just to let the looters attack and get the supplies. "

You're such a toko...

And it also seems to have an effect on the 'Dear Messenger' noise and the 'Ship Soul' noise here in the Vanel Kingdom these days.

It is also possible that those two noises were conjectured to be the rise in naval popularity, as well as the military budget increase and the noise deliberately caused by the state or military forces aimed at the area.

... Yes, I suspected that we had sought to enhance our naval capabilities and started preparing for a war with the Kingdom of Noral.

Indeed, it may seem like a positive factor for popularity from other countries, such as the use of the goddess or the ship's soul. In fact, it's my conspiracy to reduce naval power.

That's why the Noral Kingdom seems to want to snort the Vanel Kingdom's naval enhancement measures, or eat a punch in the tip of the Vanel Kingdom's nose. So until each other's nations perish, though I don't mean to, they're going to crush even one of the enemy fleets and take the ransom and compensation of the prisoners, and if they can take even one of the colonies, all hail, and so on.

... I don't know, in this level of civilized society...

So, what matters to me is not the interests of the kingdom of Vanel or anything.

Yes, for me, and for my country, I mean, what would be most convenient?

"Is war a matter of decision already?

"Mm-hmm. If we now give way to the Noral Kingdom, then more and more provocations from the other side will only escalate, and the people, the nobles, and the military will not shut up just because they say so, such as give way in the first place.

Anyone who utters the word concession, etc., can utter such an opinion because that alone would cause accusations to be concentrated and slapped from everywhere under suspicion of insider contact with the enemy, losing face, credibility and position? Even if I thought so.

Match... Especially not one nobleman or soldier who actually intends to pull back after being imitated by the Noral Kingdom with such a lick. I'm not talking about fitting in without a "ah, I knew it...

"You need to be careful not to go into total war badly, but you won't feel that way either, so you bet one colony on a fleet battle."

Ultimately, if we do something about a total war between nations over this, whichever wins, we'll be attacked by a country that's after the interests of fishermen where it's worn out. The two countries are not separately adjacent, and it will be difficult for the Army to directly attack their distant counterparts by passing through a number of unrelated countries.

In the end, we will only be losing a lot of naval power so that the naval nations that are no more than the third will benefit the width.

Fine. And what the Marquis stands for is that he thinks he's an Army faction and doesn't really show up this time... No, isn't there a floating sink in your own country? Whatever it is, you should be in a little more hurry then......

"That's about all I can teach you from Non. If you want to know more, you can only ask the nobility of another country directly to decide how far you want to go. Non also, after the decapitation sentence for the crime of leaking confidentiality or smuggling with another country, your house is torn apart, because that's straight..." Yeah, that's right.

I don't know how much to buy my pleasure, but I don't have an ex or a kid.

In the first place, it's unacceptable that all the members of the clan romantic party are guilty, or even involved in Michi, losing their families and being dropped by civilians to stray children!

... No, if it does, of course I'll take it and take care of it.

So...

"What do you mean, 'you can decide for yourself how far you want to talk to nobles in other countries'?

"Your Majesty may decide!

"Ahhh..."

I knew it......

I don't want to see you like that.

It's a war entanglement, and it's going to try to identify my country again.

War costs money, and even a weak, small country would have a lot of political use for it if it had a country that endorsed its own. Hey.

Regardless of the shape and vibration, it is also conceivable that when weapons, ammunition, ships, soldiers, and money are drained in large quantities in time of war, it is okay to take a hard attitude. I should definitely stop seeing him now because it may not be the kind of response I could afford, like last time...

"Okay, no. Anyway, it's not going to be any bigger, and I don't know what's going to happen next, because listening to one unilateral prospect or hopeful observation doesn't make much sense. Now that we know what's going on, which is a confirmed fact, all we have to do is guess and think for ourselves.

Okay, thanks!

The errand is over. So I just tried to go home...

"Wait! Wait, wait, wait, wait!!

"What?"

Something's holding the Marquis back. It's a pain in the ass......

"No, I responded to your request, so isn't it the muscle that responds to your request?

Yeah, if you ask me, it makes sense.

I don't have a choice......

"So, what do you want?

It's a pain in the ass, and it's the Marquis who pissed me off, so look from the top. No.

"... I ask you to forgive me for my disrespect the other day..."

Well, I wonder if you've reflected properly.

I'm not a ghost, either. If you want to reflect and apologize properly, I won't do anything wrong. In the first place, the main cause of that incident is probably instructions from the King, so...

... but I don't feel like I can get rid of this position of advantage because of it...

Right!!

"You have no choice... Then I'll forgive you only fifty percent. The rest, some other occasion."

"... well. But still, thank you, I must think...... The rest, then, on the next occasion…"

In any case, it has also been decided to come and get information on this matter. That way, if you forgive the other half at that time, you might be able to return to a relationship like before. Probably the Marquis who thinks so and exhales...

"Yes, we have 950 percent left."

"Oh, my God, that's so sweet! You are going to re-study percentages in kindergarten school!!

And it was me leaving the noisy Marquis and just pulling it off...

Oh, I said hello to Michi, and then I left. You're my friend!
