Sweet Reincarnation
Episode 319 Recruitment
"Well done, Pais."
"My father is no different."
Casserole greets her son in his battalion captain's office on the outskirts of the Imperial Castle.
Even though there is a useful magic, my father is a member of the army. In spite of frequent meetings, Pais had been working in the territory for quite some time.
Caserol's eyes were slightly loose when she saw Ai's son's face, and she realized the speed of the moon as Pais' height was growing in proportion.
Pais also politely greets his father, whom he has not seen for a long time.
Today, the head of the Mortelun family did not summon his family. The Central Army Battalion Captain summoned an individual, the Morteln family.
As a formality, the reality that parents have summoned their children remains the same, but in places where there may be ears and eyes, the official position will not be broken.
Casserole nodded to her eagle at the words of her son, who seemed to be busy.
"Oh, I'm busy every day."
Really, I'm busy every day.
I have the most elite troops in the army, so I won't be relieved.
In the unlikely event, it is assumed that the National Army will fight the nobility of the province who committed the rebellion and crime, and the central army will be at the core of it.
You have to be a high-quality group, better than any other army in the country, to be able to fight any army.
Take care of the elite inside. Casserole's responsibilities are heavy, and many jobs are inevitably required.
You shouldn't have any clues about paperwork, and you can't let your personal life slip away. We have to pay attention to each member of the squad, and we can't afford to negotiate with the upper levels or other departments. Don't create anxiety backwards to sharpen your elite when you have to. Rather, it is the battalion commander's job to crush the anxiety elements in the rear and in the corps in advance.
The answer, "Busy," contained a sense of reality without lying.
What about the National Army?
“Every day of training, but I don't think there's any particular problem.”
Even if you think the reorganization is complete?
Originally, Casserole was pulled by the National Army because of some political intentions.
In response to the fact that they fully controlled the territory and promoted their status as territorial aristocrats year after year, and to the fact that their tone as southern aristocrats was becoming stronger, the military nobility in the center had a sense of crisis. There are many circumstances attributed to the Mortelun family.
The problem is something other than the Morteln family.
In response to the stability of the reign of more than twenty years, the local nobility of each territory also changed generations, and the national army of the region, which had been placed on guard against the local rebellion, diminished its presence. Therefore, the regional army will be downsized. By augmenting the central national army in parallel, we will create a more prepared, mobile and powerful national army. This was the prospectus of the former general of the Central Army of Kadrechek.
For this reason, casserole was also the best option for talent.
Paradoxically, the casserole will not be able to move away from the central army until the reorganization of the central army is completed.
As Pais who holds the territory on his behalf, it is a major factor whether casserole can return to the territory in the unlikely event. It was also natural to check.
Casserole nodded again to the question whether it was okay to think that the reorganization was completed.
“You don't mind. It seems that Lord Squirrel is becoming accustomed to the control of the army."
"Twenty years old, he was the commander of the Central Army's operational unit. If this continues, the general commands the entire Central Army. and even to the military official who oversees the military orders, right?
If things go well, I'll be fine.
Rock, Duke's house. It's an elite street, isn't it?
The aristocratic society is a world where bloodline and connectivity are highly valued.
Among them, the Kadrechek family, which draws the blood of the royal family and occupies the highest position as an aristocrat, is the top of the noble society. A family with more power than a bad royalty.
Succession of the nobility without a line. It can already be said that in the future, it is confirmed that it will be responsible for the heavy responsibility of the state.
The Kadrechek family is a military family. The successor will gain experience as a soldier, and if he achieves a track record, he will naturally be at the top of the army.
Exactly, the elite of the aristocratic society itself.
"If you are willing to do so, I will recommend you to the Duke." With your talent and skill, they'll say you're a spineless person. It's okay if it's my cauldron. "
In a slightly confusing tone, Casserole stared at Pais.
Ten years ago, the House of Mortelleun was a house of the Viscount. Moreover, they are also in a position known in the army as "heavy towns". Moreover, the management of the territory itself is going well.
When it comes to elites, Pais is also, objectively speaking, an elite.
A half-legged family of high nobles with no scarlet colors. Wealthier and more practical than the court nobility. There are also parents who have established themselves as a party town.
In view of his abilities, there is no doubt that he will be given the job responsibilities commensurate with his wishes.
But it's worthless to Pais.
Making sweets is more important. There is nothing to compare with it. I can instantly respond in the area of reflection.
"Me? I'm sorry." Now that you're able to make decent sweets in your territory, right? Increasing cocoa production will continue. Milk production must also be increased. There is still a lot of work to be done. If you travel to the center and get more work, you won't be able to make sweets. ”
"I knew you'd say that."
Hah, and Caserol shows some discouragement.
A good son thought a lot of things from his appearance.
The attitude of a father who bothers to say that he already knew what he didn't want to hear.
"...... Duke, no, it's a request from Lord Squirrel, isn't it?"
"As always, it's a good trick." Our First Battalion Captain is too young to face the old mighty in the court. He wants a good assistant so good he can get his hands out of his throat. I was told to ask because it was no good and it was good as it was. I will refuse if I am forced to worship you. "
If you become a duke's son, you should be assisted by a talented human resource who will strengthen your surroundings.
But Squirrel knew. We've got ten people around us, no more than Pais.
Squirrels themselves, who are highly vocal with the next generation of young men, even have some kind of longing if they can't believe it. That's Pastry-Mill-Mortelne.
As the successor to the Kadrechek family, who plotted to control the national army at the same time as the court struggle, Pais, who is bright in both military and political terms, is a human resource who wants to secure all the territory.
But even so, it is even more important now. Pais' insanity should have been clear to him in Squirrel.
Why are you strengthening your solicitation now?
"My father is a good man too. So, what's your errand today? Isn't it true that recruitment is not the main topic?"
"Hmm. Actually, your solicitation is a bonus, except for the main request. It's a solicitation."
Yes?
Solicitation is a bonus, and the main subject is solicitation.
Pais tilted his head at what he was saying.
“Specifically, I would like to be assisted on an occasional basis, not a routine assistant.”
"Squirrel, don't you think?" Just a reminder. "
"Actually, you're the First Battalion Captain's assistant."
"... I don't know."
Whatever it is, there is too little information to swallow up the situation.
I don't know what it is, but I think I'm in a situation where I really want Pais, but what happened?
In fact, the Prince accepted the invitation and decided to go to the Voltuzara Kingdom.
Huh.
I see, Pais nods.
The Kingdom of Voltuzara is a neighbor to the west of the God Kingdom of Pais. It is a great power alongside the Kingdom of God and is one of the hegemonic powers in the Southern Continent.
"It seems that the prince was born to the other king." Apparently, the country will be celebrated with a grand celebration. The court sparrows are screaming at Peach Cupertino by way of example. As my country, I was also to send an envoy. When it came to who to send, the prince decided on the method of elimination. "
Oh, is that so?
About this invitation. The royal family's excellent intelligence network has provided some information in advance, and the Duke's family shares this information.
The invitation itself is nothing unusual, but it seems that for some reason quite high ranking humans are sent as envoys from other countries.
It seems that there is a desire to strengthen the union with the Voltuzara Kingdom as a neighboring country, but even if other places send royal-level high-ranking envoys, even if the Divine Kingdom, which is proud of being a great power, sends the wrong message. If it was a celebration that was wrapped up in a celebration called by a friend's wedding, but was obviously less than those of friends in the same position, it would be something like "not celebrating" by comparison. It will be necessary to "match" to some extent.
At the very least, even surrounded by royalty and equivalent high-ranking envoys, I needed a piece of foil that didn't have a narrow shoulder.
I'm sad to say, because of the effects of the war, the Kingdom of God has few royalty.
If the king were to send royalty as an envoy to the country, the king himself would not be the first.
No matter how important your relationship with your neighbor is, there is no way the king can leave his country. In the God kingdom, where extreme centralization is progressing, there are practical problems in the absence of the top, and if there is something in the ball in the first place, the whole country will be disturbed.
The king said no. Then there was an opinion that we should send the princess.
However, the princess is weak as an envoy.
The princess, who has little political experience, is still a little overwhelmed with the sign of a friendly envoy to a neighboring country that seems to be smelly, even if it is merely social. It wasn't a good envoy to dress up.
Therefore, I will send the prince.
Everyone agrees that this is the best way to get rid of it.
"To protect the prince, the guards couldn't move to protect the emperor." Inevitably, it was the turn of the Central Army. In the first place, it would be an outpost, and Konoe was the guardian of the royal palace in the first place. If you were to go abroad, it would still be the army's job. "
I see. If the Central Army is going to escort the Prince, it's time for the Squirrel.
Yeah.
Protecting the royal family in the court is the job of the Kingsguard. It would be about time for the king himself to send this to a foreign country.
The first candidate was the Central Army if it was to be an army to mobilize for the prince.
Fortunately, the current Central Army is a royal and fraternal man from the top. You won't have to worry about moving it.
"But...."
But?
"This invitation is very disturbing."
Haha
Casserole had a sense of perfection that had been cultivated over the years. I whispered my thoughts on the battlefield. There's something behind this story.
He also said that he shares the same concerns with the military leadership. Specifically, Squirrel and Duke Kadrechek.
"In the first place, why do envoys from other countries pay royalty?" Why did the court sparrows catch the story first? Is it true that the Prince is the only choice? Wasn't he induced? General Kadrechek and Lord Squirrel are concerned. "
If you start to feel suspicious, most things in the world will look suspicious. In the tasting ceremony, the questions only grow. It will not dissipate the disturbance.
"I don't know, but I feel like I'm turning too much."
"The First Battalion Commander is delicate unlike you." It's possible that you're turning your mind too much. "
"Father, isn't that like me being an insensitive man with a thick face?"
“That's what you're saying. Rather, there's no one who's bigger than you."
From Pais' point of view, it seems that I am too worried.
If the celebration really exists in the first place, it is not uncommon to give it away. If it wasn't uncommon, the character of the envoy would be different every time. I don't want to be at the top of my class every time for all the celebrations.
Even if a great person is upgraded even more greatly this time around, I think that's how it is.
I don't care what the other side thinks. I don't think it is necessary to wrap up a lot of the celebration money according to other places. So I was thinking that if I were to be attacked in any way, I should not hesitate to strike back.
In this regard, the thickness of Pais' liver is considerable.
However, Pace was dissatisfied with Kuta's accusations.
Even though delicacy is important when making sweets
"What I'm talking about is normal."
If you live in a thoughtful and delicate way, don't call me like this.
Pais expresses his regret at the response.
The father is also used to it. My son's protest was a beautiful parry.
Pace shrugs her shoulders.
"I understand your story." So, what do you want me to do? "
I want you to go to the Voltuzara Kingdom as a temporary assistant to Lord Squirrel.
This is the main point.
Only this time. For a limited time, I want you to assist me with Squirrel.
What about the territory?
“That's it. Our 2nd Battalion will stay in Mortelun territory on a mission called 'Dragon Guard, the Royal Property'. In the meantime, I will take over government in the territory of Morteln on" holidays "."
Isn't it a public-private confusion?
The lords of the Mortelun Realm will go to the Mortelun Realm in the name of service.
Even if you give up a hundred or even a million steps, it feels like you're confusing public and private.
"There is no public or private order to be officially ordered as a military order. I can't say no in the first place."
Cassellor stretched his chest to the point that he had properly distinguished between public and private.
"In other words, your father will return to the Morteln realm until the end of the Squirrels' expedition?"
"That's right." As for preparation, it will be for the whole month, and the period is about two months. Anise will be delighted to be able to relax at home for the first time in a long time. The King's City is so annoying. "
I think so.
If you can return to your territory at the behest of the army, Captain Casserole will be free. It's nothing like filial piety to your wife.
"I can't deny that your hand is free." If I let you go for two months, you won't be busy. In that case, lend it to me... the request from the Kadrechek family. No, it's close to an order. "
It seems that you want to succeed in Squirrel's outward assignment.
"I see. This is my first long expedition since becoming a battalion captain." If it succeeds, it has a great track record. I guess you want to come over after all the troubles. "
“Okay, if that's the case, let's say I play the role of successor to House Morteln.”
"It's helpful that things are good to understand. Don't worry... don't bother me."
Casserole felt a little uneasy about her son's honesty.
