Now, in front of me, Ira is reading Karma's sentence......

My expression keeps clouding......

"I didn't know you were having such a hard time. Karma, it looks very painful.... Dan, is there any way Karma and the others can make it in the land?

This is not good.

I have trouble being sympathetic with one sentence.

... No, if you haven't been able to grasp the state, is that natural?

But the impossible is true.

There's nothing I can do to make you look sad.

Yippee-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo-boo.

"Dear Barca, please think"

Hey, Mr. Lydia, don't look at me.

I didn't push it.

I thought there was a difference in persuasion.

"... you have no choice. The bad reviews that Lord Ira has heard are widespread throughout the territory. And I can sense clear harm from those who are spreading it. Then it's not just bad reviews, it's natural to wake up the army and try to kill Karma and the others directly. The whole Kay will undoubtedly pay attention to this battle to defeat the Evil Chancellor, and the crowds of men and women who want to raise their names and make sure that the world's many talents visit them will gather like Yunxia. My estimate is that the number of soldiers is slightly over 100,000. If you can't prevent it, you can't fight it."

"Grace was a great compliment to Lydia.... talented enough that I don't remember seeing it. Not even Lydia? Or because Dan is the master?

Mm, I was going to call you Barca in front of Ira and make it opaque, but did you find out?

No... wait, wait, wait, wait.

"Dear Ira, why am I the master? I don't think it's possible that Barca would be under my command."

"Yeah? We're both aware of each other like we're subordinates, aren't we? But I didn't think Lydia would be aware of her subordinates.... Different?

What is it?

You know that?

... no... maybe you can tell... no, no, it's tough.

Here, here, here. Yeah, yeah.

Lower heart I rarely held when I lived with him. Or is it also found out?

We need to be more careful than ever......

"Oh, my God. Well. A warrior who is proud of his person's eyes also turns blue. Indeed, I am Dan's subordinate. But that's not why I can't. Everyone is doing everything they can right now, starting with Lady Grace. What can I do? You may have forgotten, but it's not been a year since I've been here."

……

I leaned down and shut up......

But whoever it is, I don't think it's possible to succeed with Karma as Grand Chancellor.

The conversation has gone too far.

It wasn't preparation or anything until yesterday that a human being who was about the Count of the Border was suddenly the Grand Chancellor of the Centre.

Even I suspected there would really be such a rapid expansion, and there is too little element in Karma and the Kai Empire to do something about the people.

It's impossible.

"Dear Ira, I don't want you to hide it. The reason I'm trying to help Master Talk is because you want to. And I'm only willing to help her while you're under my command. I can't keep myself safe.

Besides, there would be about a 10% chance that Master Talk would come back here and follow my instructions. But this is my limit. After that, Ira will decide. "

"... Dan, you were really... mean..."

Ugh, guh...

No matter what they say, there's no other way, young lady.

Karma's conditions are far worse, and it can happen any time in the future when she tries to capture and kill me as the Lord's natural deed.

If Ira puts it over there, there's nothing she can do.

In order to gather information about Maida, I am prepared to be somewhat impotent.

But spare me the danger of futility.

I think you're already risking your life for nothing.

Karma and the others might have already escaped if they hadn't considered the possibility of being indirectly influenced by Maida.

"I promised that I would be under my command.... I'll keep my word. I just want you to tell me one thing. You said you could attack Karma from the neighboring lord even when she came home, right? What are we gonna do about it?

Crouch.

That's... I can't tell you.

"Excuse me. I can only tell you that it's better than just the talk guys doing something about it and that it's hard to execute without me"

"Huh?... Oh well. Am I not trusted..."

That's what happens when you say it in person.

"Excuse me. Because if Ira talks about the plan like a talk, and they think they can do it without me, I'm in trouble. Mr. Barca has assured me of what I just said."

"Yeah, you are... If it was Dan, it would be natural. I'm relieved. At least because I didn't think you were trying to fool me by telling the right lies. If that's all you're so careful about, Dan, you wouldn't buy a grudge from me for saying there's actually nothing there, would you?

"... Could it be, are you threatened?

"Aha. Did it look that way? No, I really do. And he said if Karma would follow Dan, maybe he could survive. Wouldn't you? Lydia."

"Yes, of course I don't know what's going to happen, but my (my) reading is that survival formula is higher"

"Yeah. Good...... Dan. Karma, please. Karma and I are friends, and there's Fio. I need your help somehow."

"Okay. I'll do my best."

Soon afterwards I sent Karma a quick horse the key to the box and the text of the contents to come back.

***

I've been in Rand for four months. I haven't been able to afford the look on everyone's face lately.

No, it's probably the worst thing I can say.

Very good at first.

Shortly before arriving in Rand, an incident at the Royal Palace and the late emperor's son, Kent, may have fled outside Rand. And is it the beginning that I was informed by my subordinates who were letting me stay in Rand?

After a quick search, it was lucky to be able to protect Master Kent sooner than anyone else.

So much so that I can still remember the unprecedented emotions of that time.

Even afterwards, he gained trust by defending Master Kent, who had suspicious feelings for the Hordes as a result of the events at the Royal Palace, and even became the Grand Chancellor.

Everyone was overjoyed, but now that I think about it, this state might have been decided at that time.

If I recall, I'll look at this one. Because in the eyes of the two Wellian families and Ilhermi, there was unseen jealousy and anger.

Immediately after becoming Grand Chancellor, I realized more than ever the harshness of the state of the Kai Empire.

And I saw a pile of unsavory things.

So while I was talking to Grace, I tried to hit the hand that seemed the best...

Neither the Rand bureaucrats nor the Hordes would listen to this story as long as they could express their opposition for the sake of opposition.

The extent to which soldiers were used to restore security in Rand was the limit, except for those who were in the end doing remarkably bad deeds.

The people of Rand rejoiced, but I hear that even that is spoken of in the evil reputation now spoken of in the land of the Hordes in one of the tyrannical acts.

... It was unfortunate that Lydia, my last favor, only wrote me to come home.

I showed Grace the sentence from her once.

"Sister, that does seem like a good hand. If you abandon your will. But the public really sees us admitting bad reviews when we go home, and I think a lot of the soldiers are leaving. And the neighboring nobles will attack the weak spot. I can't think of a way to deal with that. So I'm not gonna take that hand."

He said.

I also think you're right.

I was expecting Lydia because everyone said she was a big shot.

But...... what should we really do?

The only remaining hand I can think of is to rule by force and confront with the king and the soldiers of our realm...

"Dear Karma, Lester sent me a sentence with an early horse"

Hmm? Is that from Lydia?

No, you're not. Is that a man named Dan?

The key... if you say so, they would have given you the box.

I came over here busily and completely forgot.

Do you want me to read the contents of the box before the sentence?

I wish I was at least in a mood change.

……

…………

What the... this...

My hands... tremble. My spine, poppy.

The Emperor's Guardian?

At that time, you expected me to be the guardian of the emperor, who was meant to be the first goddess to support Zanza?

"There's someone! Get Grace in here right now!

The contents of the sentence... I want you to come home because I have hands...

... We need to regain our cool by the time Grace gets here.

Dan is just a junior official.... No, no, maybe not just.

But he's under my command. Is there a lord frightened by a lower official?

... He said one thing in case then.

At least it wasn't in a certain mood. That's for sure.

Is there someone who can read all of this?

Be calm and think only of good content.

Anyway, discuss it with Grace. Then.

***

"... Here's one of Dear Talk's predicted future.

1. Zanza dies.

2. Become the guardian of the emperor and gain an unparalleled status alongside the Kay Empire.

3. Buy the jealousy of the Horsemen, and the ill reputation of Master Talk spreads throughout the territory.

4. Fight and defeat the Allied armies the Hordes make.

What is this...? Did your sister receive this box the night before she left Lester?

Grace is also getting pale.

What else? Don't let yourself be shown the moves that are absolutely impossible.

"Oh. Right. Ira brought me here. That man named Dan gave it to me. Just in case, tell me to trust my words. This sentence needs a price, but it says there's a chance you can do something about it if you go home."

"Such predictions… in case it's possible to say so. Besides... I can't believe you're the Emperor's guardian. Maybe you were expecting us to protect Kent that day? With enough information for a junior official to get it? If that's the case... I'm not a person in the same way. There's no way Liu can do it... even if he says he can use magic, he'll be convinced."

"I can't take it that way, but it won't be on the boulder. But the horrible prediction remains unchanged. It's all on this street, and at the end of the day, we fought and defeated the Horsemen. Naturally, most people have to die.

... Grace, I immediately denied the sentence Lydia gave me, but I've been thinking about whether I should go home. How's Grace?

"... I've been thinking"

"I want you to be honest. You think you can stay in the land like this and do something about it?

"... no. Something with no light in sight at all. And no matter what you think of the bad reviews, be prepared before you raise a soldier against us. They'll be attacking us as early as a year."

I guess so.

There are too many things missing, and I can't help but think of a way to fill the shortage at all.

"Let's go home, Grace. There's still more hope for that."

"... ha... After all, is Lydia right?... If you were to leave, would you follow her steps? Sister returns for sick care. That's as sudden as you can, too. But are you sure this is good? I... am so sorry. I can't believe you escaped without a battle under the libel of your lords."

"Even I regret it. But all the reasons are clear."

"Yeah...... Helpless, I am. I can't believe what happened to Zanza."

"But the results came out. Now I'll have to do the best I can. Now, I say hello to Master Kent as soon as he's ready, and then he gets sick. I'll take care of the prep, Grace."

"Okay, sister. By the way, maybe Dan and Lydia are discussing this? I'm telling you both to come home... Until then, just because there are no other measures. Besides, with this prediction, the information and wisdom of Lydia, whose father was a nobleman living in Rand... it might be possible"

"I was thinking about that, too. At least it is more reasonable than thinking that Dan could have made this prediction alone. In that case Lydia's wisdom would be beyond my expectations…. Well, I'm pretty sure that Dan is a junior official, so wouldn't he be more comfortable talking to Lydia about whether it's possible in reality?

"Right... but if it is, I feel fooled. I didn't show any intimate gestures outside of my first day."

"You can ask as many questions as you want when you get back. Whatever it is, let's go home safely, to our advantage in the future."

"Yeah, I'll take care of it."

We have to hurry more than this happened.

Can you reward Lydia first and Dan when she goes home through her.

Even if the thoughts and the deeds he wrote are no good, Lester on the border is easier to defend than Lands surrounded by the Hordes.

That alone makes sense to go home.

But that's a dark way to go.

I want his means to be effective.

... No, you want too much.

In this critical situation, I think I may have been very competent.

I should be happy.

How about this? Has it been a difficult situation these days and the way you think about it darkened?

Let's just say the sentence asks if there are any other ideas.

We can't afford to let the good guys play.
