The kings sit down and talk about the future. Although it is necessary to bring it back to the country and discuss it with the ministers, it is not so bad for the top to agree with each other.

"Good job, Jin."

As King Emmanu and King Passy go into more detail, I am joined by Arlie.

Princess Filaire was eager to tell Princess Avril the story of the South China Sea Fleet taking down the pirates during the day. Ally asked me while Ellie prepared a new drink for me.

"What were you talking about?"

"Talking about brewing the river."

“Yeah, I'm talking about expanding the river to accommodate large trading vessels.”

When I was looking at the map, I was telling this story to Allie.

When I heard that the Yale River was connected to the Norte Sea to the north and Davis Bay to the south, there was almost no difference in height between the two sides.

I was wondering if we could make this river Yale look like the Suez Canal.

The Suez Canal is a famous canal in my world, connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea. This route can be shortened without going around the continent, and many ships were passing through it.

Indeed, when the canal was built, the Mediterranean coast remembered that it had benefited from the rapid development of maritime trade.

In that case, it was worth a try on the Yale River.

I hear that the flow of the Yale River is gentle...

Avery bowed her head.

"Aside from the small boats that can use oars, how can an open ocean boat that relies on the wind go up the river?" unless there is a magic engine equipped by a Willidis watercraft..... "

That's it.

I'll have a glass of beer.

That's where I'll use the tugboat.

It is a so-called tugboat. It is a small ship that tows and pushes ships and water structures.

"Open-ocean trading vessels use tugs instead of tolls. If we don't, we'll have to go ahead and inevitably pay for usage.”

If you don't have to travel far around the continent, you can save money, so if it's cheaper than that, you'll pay for the use of the tug.

Sometimes they collect the toll tax, but the terrain involves both the Kingdom of Verrillard and the Kingdom of the Riviera. If you collect the toll tax on your own accord, the merchants will lose the flavor of shortening the route.

I think it would be better to create a tugboat company and distribute the share to both countries from the money obtained there. I need to see both Emmanuelle and Passet react to this.

Who built the tug?

Allie's face turned like a prankster. I'll take the burnt winner.

Whatever country you use it in, you'll make a fortune out of it.

Willidis' shipbuilding division will be producing tugboats in large quantities for the time being.

However, eventually, there will be magic engines for civilian use, and we will build tugboats and river charters by local people.

As the Marquis of the South, I would like to visit the town of Zantrunk.... this winner is so crispy and delicious.

"Yes, the story will change, but your father-in-law insisted on marrying you sooner."

Ke, get married!

Ally blushed instantly as she twitched.

"Yeah, yeah. I'd love to, but that was after the war..."

"Don't make a child." I think an environment free from war stress is better for children. But I was told I could get married first. "

However, I don't really want to think about it like, "Let's make a child when the war is over" or like a death flag in the final showdown.

"And I wonder if I can say this..."

King Passepartout wants Princess Avril to marry me as soon as possible.

I've been talking about the First Lady and Second Lady, and Avery admits it. But reason and emotion are different.

"The throne of the Riviera is at stake."

Allie had a light tone. The question of the next king of the Kingdom of the Rivière, which deepens the confusion because of the civil strife.

"Maybe Avril's son will be king."

……

Arie and my child also have the right to inherit the throne in the Kingdom of Verrillard. Well, there is a next king, Jarzee, and if a boy is born to him, the next king is sure to be his son. My son will never be king.

After all, the mood is complicated. The Second Lady's son is a candidate for king in Riviera. The First Lady's son, Arry, is unlikely to be king in the Kingdom of Verrillard.

However, even if Arry's son could not become a king, he would be the heir to the Tokitomo family, in other words, the Marquis of the South.

"Are you a royalty or a superior nobleman..." My son, when my daughter is born, she'll be an aristocratic child loot. I think the feeling of modern people is that they want to be free of what they want to be.

"That's why I'm busy every day, but I think we should think about our wedding." However, Jarzee and Ekreen-san are ahead of us. "

That the next king, Jarzee, will marry. And if he has a successor, the people of the Kingdom of Veliardo will live on.

Well, what are you talking about?

Master Serre and Master Vandoldi called out to me and Avery. The calm appearance of the two of them brews the atmosphere of the goddesses that appeared in this world.

"It's a wedding."

And when I say that...

So-so, so-so!

The tension between the two of you has risen. The ladies seem to like the topic of this hand. For Serre-sama, Allie was her sister. For Vandoldi, Princess Avril was her daughter.



The next day, we returned for a tour of Southern space.

After last night's barbecue, the kings of Passepartout returned home, and Emmanuel returned to the royal castle for work.

Perhaps the ministers will discuss the talks with the Yale River and King Passe.

Travel south of the Zantrunk and along the coast. Visit fishing ports and harbor towns one after the other. I want a naval facility on the south side of Yale.

Although Zantrunk has the home port of the South China Sea fleet, it would be better to have units and bases that can intercept enemy incursions from the south.

The southernmost point of Yar prefecture is the border, and it is a large forested area where magical beasts and the like are buried. To the south, beyond the forest, beyond the plateau, beyond the desert.

It seems that there are nomads, beasts, and sub-humans in the territory.... I wish I could interact with that area as well.

I will put up a garrison in case anything happens, but once the war against the Empire and the Stigmatize Empire is over, I would like to proceed with the reclamation.
