The Branded Female Fencer
Beginning of the war, its 54 western fronts
"I was in sixth place as an heir to the throne." I had a lot of brothers, and my sequence wasn't high. I don't remember many of them anymore. "
Wasn't he the Crown Prince from the beginning?
“No, I was confident in my abilities, but my brothers were good too. Many dignitaries did not question that they had the right to inherit the throne in seniority. My father was the only one who was weak. Although the Romanesque land of Sanbu, the palace is a magical cave wherever you go. The number of power schemes and the winds of betrayal and assassination remain unchanged. No, the royal palace in Roman's Land was a closed space, which may have been especially bad. I volunteered for a military operation to escape the vortex of such a plot, and I built up a track record in a place separate from the right to inherit the throne. I thought I needed to show myself useful if I could not be king. Bloodthirsty, but somewhat disgusting. I didn't think of myself as a party.
A few years later, my sequence was in second place. After fighting with each other, the brothers destroyed themselves. Since then, I've been involved in a lot of power plotting. Even though I didn't do anything, the plot went on and people died one after another. That's why we decided to lead the army and carry out the purge. There was no death penalty for those who rebelled, and the remaining brother died in the guise of an accident during the inspection of the army, and the father king, who had no power to rule the controversy, was slowly weakened by the poison. The remaining brother, sister and relatives were deported from the country. Those who clung to the power of Romansland were offered assassins. So I took absolute power at home and became known as a tyrant from abroad. In Romanesque lands, where Arnelia doesn't even have a branch, the coup d 'état was rarely known, and it was similar everywhere in the first place. Maybe I wasn't interested. "
I heard you were a bright crown prince.
"It would be the initial assessment of the Crown Prince." Since I was also investing in diplomacy, I also actively participated in night parties that did not descend, and I learned a lot from Mayer by inviting teachers that I could not just lead the army. It took me 10 years to poison my father. The Crown Prince had a long time, and in the meantime he infiltrated my system. Death for the rebellious, and shelter for the obedient. Unless there was tyranny like that, I thought the pus in the country would never run out. Now I think, I was young. "
I couldn't conceal a hint of loneliness in my fiercely smiling expression.
"Got absolute power, but lost a lot on the other hand. Because they had cast off all their enemies, there were only a few people in the military department who could be trusted, and the civil servants resigned from their posts one after another, leaving none of them outstanding.
Even from a financial point of view, it is not possible to ignore the powerful nobility in the end, and the same number of power conspiracies are repeated as a result of receiving talks from the consort and the side room. When she was young, the woman she liked was recommended by the chief of the Tenma Knights of Friedelinde, and she could not be put aside. The only thing I heard about the end of it was that he was humiliated and murdered in cold blood on all the battlefields. It was two generations ago in Mistona.
A girl born of a princess who could not even kill a worm, who took it as a loot in the small country that invaded with hunger, lived in the dragon's sigil just like me. I lost my mind and body in the power struggle in the palace, and I died quickly. "
"Is that Anneclose's mother?"
"That's right. If I had been born a little earlier as the first princess, I wouldn't have bothered with my successor." It's all going to work out, my life. As it did so, a calamity named Orloise emerged.
Voff entered the palace as a distant relative of a man who was all very well-identified and incompetent, and soon became famous for his beauty and grew in strength. Both the Mahatma and the Side Empress thought it was possible that he had turned somehow to dispose of it, but it was too late when they realized it. If you think the power struggle in the palace is clear, there's nothing wrong with it. I just had to replace the contents with Calamity. My awe, my prestige, my subtlety. It's ironic that bugs are more uncompetitive than humans. "
With a sneer, Swendall looked indescribable, and once Alpha Reese took his gaze off him, he saw the dragons descend into the first layer between the clouds. Perhaps the original pickup has begun.
Swendle turned her back.
“You don't seem to have much time, thank you for hanging out with me.”
"I didn't expect to be thanked." But why me? "
"I thought you could always look at the world from a free perspective, without being confused. Neither the earth, nor the sky, nor the common sense of the world shall be bound by the Spirit. I think that's your real talent. Your innate temperament, your persecuted origins, those who brought you up, those who are around you now. It's all your property, take care of it. It's something I never have. No, it could be for all the politicians."
"You don't have to tell me."
"And remember that I was there." You'll be like me, won't you? "
King Swendle, you--
It was forbidden for Alphilees to speak ahead. This king must understand his destiny. Alfilise figured out what to do, and she was trying to draw a conclusion and entrust it to herself. And what should I say or do? I was thinking about Alpha Lease.
Swendle finally smiled when she saw Alpha Reese like that.
"Huh, are you in trouble, too?"
"I've had my troubles." There's too much to do and too much to do. "
"That's right, there are a handful of people who can really do what they want." I'll give you a little advice if you're worried. I can't move from home. Then who will be in charge of the whole thing? He's painting the big picture of this war. "
Isn't that Master Crowsell?
"I can't make it clear, that's the kind of pledge." There will be others to be wary of. Royalty and nobility are truly difficult. Even if they can be trusted at first glance, many people are burning with ambition behind their backs. By contrast, the Friedelinde Tenma Knights have known each other since the nation was built. Some of them are trustworthy. As long as decent royalty and soldiers are alive, friendship with them will not be lost. On the other hand, don't even trust me when they're gone. Don't be relentless or hesitant. The more you hesitate, the more your people will be lost. "
"... I got it."
"For the rest, watch out for the two people." Kalamiti and the Legion. "
An army? And now a calamity?
Swendle's words seemed strange. What do you mean, watch out for Calamity now? Swendle spoke with her choice of words.
"I guess I was hired by a black magician at first, but not now." Even Calamity was no longer under the black magician's brainwashing. Clausel only moves according to his desires. The reason that no one can get rid of Crowsell is largely because of the people around him. Heavy Knight Geist, Legion, and Brave Zemus. "
"Zemus! Is Zemus here?"
"Oh, he's the perfect guy." If there is a man in the palace, this palace will not fall, no matter what enemies are coming. Alone, he'll show his army back. "
"... is there a reason?"
Swendle nodded in response to Alpha Reese's question, who was uncomfortable with Swendle's evaluation of Zemus.
"You'll find out when you come to the palace. Why did Oranzebull choose that location, and why was Calamity sent? And the properties of Zemus."
Zemus trait?
"I didn't know that such a thing was recommended by other countries as a hero - a horrible warrior." No, I could be more brave than anyone. Don't ever forgive his heart. "
Yeah, who is it?
Alpha Reese was strangely surprised to see him once in Tarum. I honestly liked the shape of my face. But for some reason, I didn't deny that I was more attracted than that. But I don't know if it was attracted as a woman.
Seeing that, Swendle grinned at Alpha Reese.
