Kingdom of Rhoden, the third most powerful nation in this northern continent.
The northern border is dichotomous between the East and West Leblanc Empires, with the coastline running over the Gulf of Burgo to the west, the South Central Sea to the south and the Grand Duchy of Limburt and the Great Canadian Forest where the elves live independent of Rhoden to the east, a country with relatively few external enemies.
Both Leblanc empires bordering the north.
The Holy Leblanc Empire of the East, and the Great Leblanc Empire of the West, which was formerly a single nation, are later divided and stare at each other to take hegemony of the continent.
The national power of the two countries was almost antagonistic, and if we could draw Rhoden here into our own faction, the needle of power would be heavily inclined, and the influence of the continent's struggle for hegemony between East and West would have shed its shadow within the kingdom as well.
The Holy Leblanc Empire of the East marches south in search of an unfreezing harbor and a warm plain, plotting to defeat the West in conjunction with Rhoden, while the Great Leblanc Empire of the West appeals to the legitimacy of Leblanc and plots to lead the East with Rhoden.
The struggle for the succession to the next throne of the Kingdom of Rhoden was joined there, with Prince Sect of the First Prince taking the Great Empire of Leblanc to the west and Prince Dakares of the Second Prince holding the rear shield of the Holy Leblanc Empire to the east and holding each other hostage.
Among other things, the second princess, Princess Yuliana, who has the right to inherit the throne, claimed her own route, complaining about maintaining a certain distance from both countries and strengthening ties between the Northern Kingdom and the Grand Duchy of Limburt, east and west of the kingdom, and the Canadian Great Forest ruled by the elves.
And in the fierce power struggle of the three parties to take the nobility within the kingdom into their own hands, the power map within the kingdom was about to change dramatically because the dark sources of funding to form the second prince faction were shut down by some plot.
Looking north over the Kalkato Mountains, the land stretches with fertile plains, and the Rydell River, which boasts abundant water stretching from the Wind Dragon Mountains, flows through the eastern side of the Wang Capital and pours it into the South Central Sea to the south.
Sitting at a window table where you can admire a courtyard, a room in a remote palace in the heart of the King's capital of Rhoden, Orav, one woman could follow only one samurai behind her back and relate to two figures.
The woman, dressed in a clear and calm atmosphere dress, sitting back with her lady's natural deeds and with a combination of pity like a girl, is the second princess of this country, Juliana Merol Melissa Rhoden Orav.
A lovely brown eye is placed on his white, neat face, stretching his blonde hair with a strong yellow flavour for a long time and making loose waves hanging on the tip of his hair. But I could see the light of strong will dwelling in those big eyes.
"Next time I heard Brother Dakares say he was going to Hoban territory with Brother Sect. Apparently, it's called attendance at a night club and inspection of the area around Wang Capital."
A magnificent man meets Princess Juliana's quiet story and snorts heavily at her gavel.
The large man in general clothes prunes his brown hair and mustache short, with a squared, grim face giving him majesty.
He is one of the three generals of the King's Army, General Calton du Frivtran, the Duke of the Princess's faction and head of the Frivtran family.
"This inspection to Hoban, you smell dangerous. In the previous case, speculation is flying in the court with regard to the killer. It was a deception that appeared to be a raid by the Elves, even in His Highness's faction and in our work."
The first case concerned the assassination of the Marquis of Diento, a second-prince faction.
It was an incident in the Kingdom of Rhoden, where a ban on the captivity and trafficking of the Elves was arranged, involving the lord of Dient, who was suspected of trading behind it, on the arrow tip where Princess Juliana was secretly making an inside detective.
Though eyewitness testimony of the Elves had appeared at first, at some point the witness disappeared, and it went down to become one of the statues of speculative killers that appeared in many. And the killer and his purpose still remain unknown, with the result of calling for further speculation.
"Simultaneous attacks by slave traders, but the accumulated assets, etc. of Lord Diento, have disappeared, so much so that the speculation is overwhelming."
Princess Juliana sighs with her shoulders wide over her shoulders.
"It's the whereabouts of disappeared assets, but some of them were found within Dient territory, he said. It's part of an expensive condiment, but they said the inhabitants were in possession. I've picked up everything that was falling or something, and I've found a few other things flowing into the market. The Diento family is trying to take it back, but once it's flowing into the dark, they won't find it sooner rather than later."
It was the young man sitting next to General Calton who opened his mouth.
General Sleeve through the military costume that feels slightly simplified, the young man with the right fold looks similar to General Calton, but the line is slightly thinner than the general's. But that's compared to General Calton.
His name is Rendle du Frivtran. He is a young man in the position of commander of the battalion who leads a battalion of troops in his custody, making him the son of General Calton, the son of the Duke of Frivtran family.
"At any rate, this will take a while for the Marquis Diento family to recover. Due to the leaning of one of the major sources of funding, His Highness's faction will hit something to contain this upset...... I also hear that His Royal Highness Sektor and the Duke of Brutios are making some unpleasant moves."
General Carton wrinkles at the root of his eyebrows as he hands on his splendid jaw to express his concern over the disturbing movements of both factions.
Nodding to affirm such a general's concern, Princess Yuliana also spoke of her future response.
"There will be a storm...... Perhaps you should schedule an appointment and expedite your visit to Limburt. Ferna will accompany you then."
Princess Juliana stood behind her back, doing her gaze to Ferna, a samurai who is also dating from a young child, to inform her of her future plans.
The samurai, known as Ferna, smiled slightly thinner with the slit long's eyes, lowering her head, wrapped up with beautifully tied hair.
"I understand, Master Juliana"
"... right. If we squeeze the escorts to fifty, they'll probably be able to get us into Limburt in five days. Put this rendle on the escort's command and align the best of my men."
When the general slaps his side son on the shoulder with his big hand, he takes it and Rendle rushes back to his consciousness, which was blinded by his samurai Ferna, and drips his head on his knees on the spot.
"The princess's safety on the road, even in lieu of my life!
"Thank you, Sir Rendle. The Hilk bishop is also making suspicious moves, please help him not to be distracted."
To Princess Juliana's words, now two men drool their heads again.
