Sweet Reincarnation
Episode 326: Departure
Entering the blue moon, the first outing by His Royal Highness the Prince was held.
It was expected that it would take about two months to return, but during that time, the first battalion of the Central Army, the National Army, would be hitting the guards.
Lady Pastry, thank you very much.
I don't know how far I can support Sir Squirrel-Kadrechek, but I'll do my best.
Pais is summoned to the training ground inside the Imperial Castle to greet the First Battalion Commander. Of course, the person who summons must not be rude, and he must also be greeted.
Pais and Squirrel salute each other.
There were two people representing the next generation.
Today is the last meeting on the extermination accompanying the dispatch of the mission. If there were no problems, Pais was accompanied by just under ten people. Five of them are students. One of them was an instructor, and the rest were family members of the Mortelun family. Cooks love and respect.
For a while, Pais and Squirrel exchanged words while looking at the paper, but Squirrel came up with an addition when the explanation was finished.
What do you want to know about this surgery?
Yes.
Of course, I don't know what will happen until just before the day or after I leave.
In the first place, Pais is turning to assistants to be flexible in dealing with unexpected situations.
Pais promotes continuity without any particular surprise.
"The first point is that there are some... noble people serving alongside His Royal Highness the Prince."
You've got more legs and limbs, right?
"I don't deny that I can see it that way."
There are many people who have added extra tea, kept their mouths shut, and put out their hands on this mission.
With Pais, if you change your mind, you're increasing your limbs for the benefit of House Mortellen.
In addition, Squirrel accompanied several people as his caretaker, and in the first place, Pais was using his personnel rights as a little bit of power to screw them in.
If so, it would be difficult to criticize the surrounding people beside the prince, even if they added some personnel for their own benefit.
Because of his position, Squirrel, who could not speak as directly as Pais, was speechless, but his intentions were clear.
Pais, who will accompany you as an escort. With Squirrel's care, he explained that he would not feel comfortable increasing the number of escort targets on his own.
In contrast, Pais, who has experience in dealing with the world's irrational and annoying crummers, can smile and parry to that extent.
Nodding briefly, that's it.
"Next, the movement of foreign countries"
What do you got?
“It seems to be a bigger mobilization than we originally expected. the number of troops dispatched is greater than expected...."
It seems that the Kadurecek family carried out intelligence activities and intelligence gathering activities with great care, even though it was the sunny stage of Akiko.
As a result, it became clear that a much larger mobilization was taking place in various countries than the Foreign Minister's nobility had previously received.
Is it because of our movements?
“I think that's a good possibility. It seems to have been inspired by the mobilization of our country on a battalion scale with His Royal Highness the Prince as an envoy.”
The Kingdom of God is a country surrounded by virtual enemies on all sides. I used to fight all of them.
From the standpoint of the God Kingdom, at the time of deciding to send the first prince to the virtual enemy country, it was judged that half the battle force was not enough as an escort. Of course, if something happens to the prince, it will cause the country to get upset and call for war.
One battalion of guards was the minimum required from the Divine Kingdom, and I wanted to increase it even more if I meant it. As a military unit, the battalion can perform the minimum military operations. It is the military's argument that this is impossible.
But how about we view this move from a foreign standpoint? A great nation led by an army. If you make a mistake, you'll turn into an invading army.
It is the same in every country that is worried if we don't have enough power to fight it. The Suspicion Dark Ghost calls out to the army. Politics is a negative aspect of the economy.
Is it possible that the enemy's fighting power is increasing when it comes to "Ikaku"?
Of course, I don't think that's the case.
"It's up to us to be prepared when things go badly." I think it's right to be vigilant. ”
The purpose of this celebration is only to celebrate. In other words, he is an envoy of goodwill.
Squirrels do not envisage anything other than escorts, but they don't know how to get out of other countries.
It would be prudent of those who trust the command to be vigilant.
"And......"
Pais tilted his head. Because the battalion commander's words stopped.
Memory has a reputation as a chief graduate of the cadet academy, so there is no time to forget what to say, and wait for the next words to come (Pais).
Squirrel was stubborn not because the next word didn't come out.
Because what needs to be said has changed depending on the situation.
The reason is that Pais calls out from behind. Someone I don't normally see at the training ground.
"Hello, Sir Pastry-Mortelun. It's been a long time, since you've come to celebrate my birthday.”
"Your Highness"
His Highness the Prince.
It was only when he came that Squirrel shut his mouth.
I'm at a training ground. It's outdoors and has people's eyes.
Pais is the daughter of a viscount and is officially treated as a baronet. I'm not in the position to speak to the prince recklessly.
Pais straightens his posture while saluting.
His Royal Highness the Prince looks at Pais as if he were observing such a thing. Squirrel, who could not stand the silence of time, called out to the prince and spoke to him.
"Your Highness wants to speak with Lord Pastry."
"... it's an honor."
With Squirrel standing in between, the Prince and Pais were able to have a conversation.
It's ready.
What does a rare genius wizard and the future king of this country talk about?
Squirrels and such didn't bother me.
So, will you accompany me on this escort?
"Yes, I will protect you in this place."
Pais answers questions directly while saluting.
The content is really fantastic, but it's not like Pais has a bad answer here. It was really a disgraceful response.
"I've heard of Sir Takehiro." Squirrel also said that it would be nice if the Lord were here. "
"I am honored to have been given such an overrated rating."
His Highness the Prince was looking into Pais.
Of course, I heard that you were going to accompany the First Battalion on this escort, but before that, I was investigating the rumors about Pais.
Recent stories of defeating the legendary dragon.
Exactly one thousand rides. No, it would be ten thousand rides.
Son of Casserole, who is considered to be comparable to a single army. If a father is compared to a platoon, his son is even rated as a battalion, the core of the new generation.
The Prince's heart was the word to make Martial Arts trustworthy.
By the way, I've been wanting to ask you something before.
Whatever.
"... do you want my sister?"
"... what about you?"
He was a prince who laughed a little, but his eyes were serious. At least that's what Squirrel and Pais looked like.
I'm surprised to hear you say something suddenly, but what you're saying is simple.
There are no people who don't know the content.
"I want you to speak up at all times if the Lord is willing to do so." We're friends. Don't be shy, okay? "
When did you become a friend from this moment on?
Your Highness is more than a friend.
Apparently, the prince exalted Pais beyond anything else. That's what I think of as my brother-in-law.
In this world, or at least in the Kingdom of God, polygamy is permitted. Pais' wife is a licorice, but a nobleman with only one wife is quite rare.
Then it is not strange for an aristocrat to speak of a second wife.
There is only a sense of disobedience from Pais' values.
“Thank you for your words.”
"My father and your father are close friends. We want to do the same.”
Haha
"If there were two guards this time, there would be no grief." I'm going to enjoy traveling abroad. ”
Ahahaha, the prince smiled casually.
During the brief encounter, Pais was greatly shaken up by emotions, but it was enough to tell that the prince was not just a decoration.
He seems to be plotting something about an envoy.
As reliable as we can be.
Pais laughs invincibly without a shortage of escorts.
And the Prince's arrival means he's ready to go.
Pais and the Prince's party marched into the training ground.
There were all the faces of the first battalion, and all the missions.
"All personnel, attention"
Squire Captain Squirrel of the 1st Battalion raised his voice to the streets.
I'll give you a word from His Highness!
In response to Squirrel's words, the prince stepped forward before everyone.
Of course, there were guards nearby, and Squirrel and Pais were in a position to keep an eye on the Prince's side.
"Thank you, everyone, for me."
The prince's voice echoed strangely.
"From now on, as you all know, the future will be far away, far away, foreign. When I tried to claim to be the prince of the God Kingdom, I was honestly worried about how much he would value me."
The treatment of nobles overseas will probably depend on the conditions in the country of residence.
Whether you are the highest royalty in the Divine Kingdom, there may be cases such as the treatment of civilians who are not specially treated depending on the other party's convenience.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you are silent as a god kingdom after such a response, but there is no way you can do anything about the treatment from the god kingdom side.
That's why I was an escort.
"But I'm never pessimistic. I believe that the role of this envoy can certainly be fulfilled. And I'm convinced."
The prince slowly looked around at the knights.
"Because I have everybody."
I spread my hands and showed the knights my trust.
Then, in a right-handed position, I turned to the escort commanders who were beside me.
"Look at me."
In the words of the prince, the gathered gaze was directed at the people who were right next to the prince.
Squirrels and Pais are among them.
"Captain Squirrel-Kadrechek, a young hero who has already been scarred." And as the son of a hero of salvation, that dragon killer, Pastry-Morteln. Sir Aebert Vetzen, a wise general who was said to be in the Central Army. And this is how we gathered together the proud elite of our country. "
Squirrel had already gone to several battles, including the first one, and had raised his hand. Given that he is still young, there is no doubt that he will continue to gain experience and enhance his abilities.
And Pais was there to assist me. Rather than looking across the entire Southern Continent, no human could possibly have done anything more glorious than Pace.
His Highness the Prince turns to the Knights again after expressing his trust in the guards and commanders.
"I'm counting on everyone's help." With you there, I can do my job without any worries. There are a lot of foreign affairs experts around me. Definitely a success. I've already prepared for that. "
The prince rests his hand on the sword at his waist. The sparkle of silver emitted from the sheath grabs everyone's attention.
"Therefore, Lunikis = Oranguffe = Hasbunova = Mill = Praulich orders." Make sure you get home safe. I hope above all that everyone here will return safely to fulfill their mission. ”
A sword held high and shining brightly in the sun.
I pointed straight to the hollow.
The prince gives orders in big, short, and clearly audible words.
"Get out of here."
At the prince's command, everyone stood in line.
