The Branded Female Fencer

War and Peace, Part 31 - Each Peace, Kazas and Cowen

"... that's not good"

"I just couldn't have predicted. Wow - suppressing the dragon's nest."

Kazas and Cowen were sighing heavily in Jaeger's conference room. There were tons of maps on the table, as well as a board mimicking the continent that the two of us could see after the debate and a number of puppets with big mother fingers rolling around. This was the board used during the military debate, but Cowen and Kazas have had many military discussions here since the Romansland invasion began. From the way they came out, perhaps since they stepped on that there was a schemer Clauselle, they had enlivened the debate even more.

On this continent there is a gathering of sages. Bringing together intellectuals whose names were known or unknown to the world and discussing them on various agendas. Everyone laughs at the useless Yotai tales of the intellectuals, but it is not insulting because from here comes the invention of the century or the idea of rocking the continent. Mayer, the city of academia, took a specific form to further expand these knowledge, but the Sage Society never ran out as a forum for discussion that could not be put on the table.

It is said that the predecessor of the Sage Society will go up hundreds of years ago, and the current chairman is an arbiter named Shane Sereno. He's cadeted on a continent and emerged with great momentum, but Kazas has never met him.

Cowen said he had seen it a long time ago, but he didn't seem so power-craving, he only had the impression of a woman who looked beautiful but calm and quiet. I'm not sure when I became chairman, either, but I didn't know what was going on around it because Kazas and Cowen also had a troublesome gathering called the Sage Society in the first place and didn't actively participate.

The only thing I remembered was that the schemer Krausel was very dangerous. The argument of subjugating the continent more than one country was great, because I never thought it would be viable if there were a concerted exchanger. Many were aware of the danger, but few of them were able to tell each other each other because the opponent was a mercenary and no one could bear him in the military debate on the board.

Everyone threw it away because there was just no sign of it being transferred to execution. The truth is that we all had only that degree of awareness because there are so many stories at the Sage Society that there is no sudden flight. That is what this body is now.

In so doing, Klausel expressed interest in the map of Kazas, and also, with regard to Cowen's National Centennial total, let the child shine his eyes and listen. Sometimes both Kazas and Cowen were his opponents because they were so persistent. However much in retrospect, it was a relationship to that extent. I didn't know that would bother me so much now. I couldn't help but regret the danger of a person named Krausel as a result of everyone's insults.

"Shouldn't I have shown you the map... the dragon's nest was just too dangerous to get in so I created it around external observations, does that mean it wasn't even good"

"That would be an academic interest ~? I can't predict that. Even if I didn't show Krausel the map - I'm sure I'd pay for it financially - or kidnap Kazas. But I saw the map."

"That's right, you know, that's how it's going to be. Then which is the same?"

"Let's work out more measures than that ~. Wake it up on the map like this - we know the dangers of this operation ~. We discussed this once with Arnelia - how many people have noticed that the continent is already under control today ~?"

Alphilis and Ekla came where Cowen opened the map neatly again. There was a snack in my hand and the smell of just warmed bread and soup stimulated the hunger of Kazas and Cowen. Enthusiastic about the debate. Not really, speaking of which, the two of them remembered that they had put nothing in their stomachs for nearly half a day.

"Looks delicious - is it plugged in?"

"The rack burned it. It's a prototype, but you can also taste it. How's the debate going?

"That's worse than I imagined. Look, this."

Ekra was refreshed when she saw the scattering, which was not even an interaction on the board, but Alphilis seemed to understand.

"I see, you still do. Have you been after it?"

"That's right. The only problem is that I don't have a hitter at the moment. Neither the scouts you hired in your guild, nor those you sent out of Jaeger, can move satisfactorily with this snow"

"Well, you don't have to look into it. I know what you're doing. The problem is you don't know the scale. Depends. When spring comes, it's too late. How dare you?"

"You're right ~"

"Oh, um, excuse me. I can't keep up with the story..."

Ekla raised her hand as a jerk, but Cowen just cut it off.

"You don't have to follow me ~? You're in internal affairs, because it's my job to go outside and defeat my enemies"

"Well, then maybe I don't have military talent, but the way you put it is terrible!

"Well, you should let Ekla know too. And don't let Cowen ruin Ekla."

"Ha ~ i ~"

Cowen replied carelessly, so Alphilis explained.

"Romansland has made progress on the five roads. Progress is currently halted by snow on the front line, but one has dropped the country at a minimum everywhere. The invasion could have reached Tarram when the Northern Commercial Union was dropped, but that stopped. Assuming the tarram was dropped, the countries on the east side would have had their progress extended to the entrance. Can we get this far?

"Yes."

"Until now, Romansland has been unable to wage direct war with the countries of the east because of the existence of the Northern Commercial Union. They are dealers who supply food, etc. that can also be a lifeline for Romansland, while at the same time merchants with land. They were supplying extra food to Romansland through commerce.

Assuming Romansland attacked them, the barn zone is far south. They will also continue southwards with food refills unabated. That's what made a long expedition to Romansland impossible. "

"I know that far. It's famous enough to be handled in military law classes."

"Then the problem. If Romansland is going on a long expedition, what do we need to do?

Ekla often thought about it and noticed much more about the Alphilis inquiry.
