"This is a brilliant bustle! It's so hard to think of so many festivals in the Empire!

An inspection of the Magic Birthday Festival that finally began. Me and Uffi were in a carriage with Emperor Lukeheim and Master Falgana to tour the castle town. Emperor Lukeheim seemed to enjoy the festival view from the carriage window alive.

After all, the attitude that has been pushing me since yesterday in a friendly way has not changed, and I am still a friendly emperor today. Before I left for the inspection, it was probably not my fault that my father, who dropped me off, was sloppy.

"The Aylene Empire is bigger, so I thought the festival would be gorgeous."

"Mm-hmm. That's a lot of festivals to celebrate victory when it comes to the Empire Festival. It would certainly be no less than today's Birthday festival if compared just by the bustle. But what impresses me is the contents of the festival. Are these stalls being served as new products that have become popular in the kingdom or have been created by using them?

"Yep. There has been a decision to hold an opportunity for the people to have the magic tools in their hands."

"There, what I admire. It's not just a noise, a festival to celebrate. Such a festival would still be a culture that would not take root in the Empire. Even though we know that the foundations are different from those of the Kingdom of Palettia, festivals for tradition and culture are somewhat difficult to lead in the Empire."

The look on the face of Emperor Lukeheim, who said so, was a little tightened, showing his face as one emperor from a friendly attitude.

"The Empire has swallowed and annexed numerous nations. That is true when it comes to the rights of the winner, but there are still many times when we really have to abolish them if we have a culture or custom that is inconvenient to annexe to the Empire. The only way to say that these festivals are not possible right now is for the Empire to take the lead."

"Doesn't the size of the country determine the glamour of the festival..."

"Hmm. Well, this change is from recent years too, isn't it? The Kingdom of Palletia has a stronger aristocratic authority than the former. Though I remember that the Lord is thankful for the Spirit when it comes to festivals and not so glamorous so far?

"Right. Again, it should be called the influence of magic and magic props."

That's what Yufi said after he nodded one. The scale of the festival is growing year after year, so you're not wrong about what Yufi is saying.

The festival also costs money to lead. Admittedly, there were circumstances in which nobles did not have the idea of deliberately holding a festival for civilians even though it would cost them money, or where high hurdles made it difficult for civilians to find more value than labour.

However, the demonic props also dramatically changed the situation of the people. Mass production of magic props without the help of the people is another dream of dreams.

So the aristocrats began to find value in working civilians again. It's not natural for you to do all you can, but make it work for you. To those who have done excellent deeds, praise be due.

That has so far transformed relations between nobles and civilians. The symbol can also be called the Magic Birthday.

"Kings and nobles are brains in the country. But having only a head doesn't make a country. That is why we must protect our people. They are the hands and feet of the country. Magic that plunges its hands and feet longer and into various fields is a wonderful idea, and a magic artifact can also be described as an invention that changes history"

"Well, that's..."

In fact, I can't even say that I sidelined an invention that has changed history. I don't think I would have had this sight without my previous life's knowledge. Because of the environment I grew up in, how long was it an invention for me, but because my first aspirations really wanted to see this sight, I admired magic.

A world where people are like people and talk about dreams and hopes. I can't say that nobility and the value of civilians are boulders of equality, but I still don't think they can be treated favourably because they are nobles and scorned because they are civilians.

So I want to build a relationship where nobility and civilians can support and respect each other. That way I can pray from the bottom of my heart.

"It is the path to hope that is found by magic. This sight still makes me feel strong. Of course, I think it was the credit of Lord Orphans and Queen Sylphine who built the soil for it."

"Yep. It is the result of my father-in-law and mother-in-law continuing to prepare the ground and protect the country. Now, I want to think that the reason we have this sight is because we were able to grow up healthy."

I don't think the path the fathers came on was ever an easy one. Although Uffi says he grew up healthy, the problems with education were very great.

A predecessor of the Spirit Ministry, now a time when the dismantled Ministry of Magic was proud of its strength. Many have nurtured values distorted by an attitude of pushing for extreme spiritual beliefs, a power orientation so threatening as to threaten kingdom.

Education has also been reviewed since the truth of the Spirit covenant was published, and fewer people have been inclined to the Spirit faith. Some people still can't throw away their existing ideas. Conversely, some have come to strongly refute previous ideas.

Change creates both good and bad sides. I just have to take the time to do something about all this.

I have to lead the country with Uffi so that I am not ashamed of the fathers who have prepared the soil that will only encourage that change. In my own way, though.

"But from what I've seen, you have more tools to use in your daily life than weapons and protective equipment,"

"Originally, spiritual stones were what supported the lives of the people. Instead of using spiritual stones, the goal is to increase the range and convenience of what can be done by processing them in the form of magic props."

"Hmm. But Princess Anisphere is royal, isn't she? Didn't you do quite a bit of downchecking to make demonic props that looked so far into the lives of the people?

"I've done some digging, but most importantly, do you think I made most of them because I'm convenient..."

"Hmm? Really?

"There were times when I worked as an adventurer. So there were many opportunities for outdoor cooking and touching the lives of the people..."

"Oh, I see..."

Emperor Lukeheim nodded as he was convinced. I felt a little bitter on that face.

"Once upon a time, I was in the service of the royal family and headed to the battlefield as a general... but there are activities in the open."

"Yep, there are countless things to do with fire from drinking water problems, having to outrun windstorms, or be prepared"

"Ah. It's not like spiritual resources are luxury in an empire, it's not like they've been incorporated into life so far. However, many times they were helped by water and fire spiritual stones at marching destinations. It is understandable that there will be more voices in the country that want to..."

Hiraki looks at Yufi with a grin like Emperor Lukeheim staring at his prey. The corresponding Uffi is also clear. Intercept with a beautiful smile.

"Unfortunately, supply to the country is a priority first…"

"You haven't said anything yet, have you? Your Majesty. But can you manage to get another voice there?

"I can't make a commitment"

"Too bad."

Although I say sorry in my mouth, the signs of regret for Emperor Lukeheim are not as if. I think maybe it's like hanging out.

"But there's actually something tougher than this."

"And say?

"It is my view that the Aylene Empire and the Kingdom of Palletia must be only reciprocal. If this balance of reciprocity is broken, the imperial extremists will breathe back again. If this one gives way too much, the weak-hearted emperor will say it is unnecessary, or we should just let the Kingdom of Palletia give way, and we should aim for annexation."

"... it's again"

Emperor Lukeheim, who was in a mild condition until earlier, was tightening his expression. I also correct my habitation with nature.

"Fortunately, the Kingdom of Palletia is not very ambitious. For better or worse, it's hard to get through if you get interference from another country."

"Maybe you can say that's national. You want to expand an unexplored territory, but you don't want a territory until you've fought another country. The territory we want is where spiritual resources are mined. So demons are the enemies of the kingdom."

"Isn't it when you're at war with people? The Empire can't ignore the demon problem either. If the country changes, so does what you want."

Emperor Lukeheim sighs as he gently suppresses his eyebrows with his fingers. It's a tired sigh of giving up.

"After all, the empire has swelled up too much. I don't suppose the Kingdom of Palletia is a single rock, but I still think it's better than the Empire."

"... circumstances in each other's countries are not like comparing. Isn't it important that we explore better paths for each other?

"Mm-hmm. So is that, then I'll have to enjoy today's festival!

Emperor Lukeheim knocked on his knees and laughed furiously as if trying to change the air. I'm going to fall in love with the goodness of this switch.

"Speaking of which, I've been keeping my mouth shut for a while, but are you okay? Dear Falgana,"

"Hmm? Oh, no. My brother talked to me. I just don't think it's sneaky to interrupt. You don't have to worry about that, do you?

I am concerned about Master Falgana, who has been silent since earlier, and I speak up. Speaking to me, Lady Falgana laughs and flaunts her shoulders.

"Honestly, my relationship with the Kingdom of Palletia since I replaced Lord Orphans has been subtle. To the coup d 'état in the Kingdom of Palettia, Father, who wants to break down in line with that coup d 'état. Queen Silphine tried to prevent it. Even if my brother replaced the emperor, they wanted to target the Palletian kingdom, and my brother couldn't move as he thought."

"... the result of my assassination attempt."

"I think it's really bad about that, and I'm really horrified that Princess Anisphere has nothing to do with it. It's just that if you're involved with a position or a smudge, there's no way you can tell it all in detail."

"It's, well..."

Each other, we have the position of top of the country. No matter how much you prefer it, there is a position.

"Still, this is how my brother can visit the Kingdom of Palettia now, and he also lets me participate in the festival. Thank you very much. Empires are a lot rougher than kingdoms."

"But that's why the empire could have grown so far. It would also be one advantage, Fall"

Fall, and Emperor Lukeheim put his arms together as he nicknamed his brother.

"It is true that the imperial people quarrel quickly and are indispensable for rough affairs. Fighting and personal fights are not uncommon. But that's why a strong people grew up. It's troubling that it turns out to be a war lover or that it's easy to appreciate the merits of battle, but I love such an imperial people. Is that why? We want a friendly relationship with the Kingdom of Palettia."

"Is that why?"

"I take it for granted that the strong get as much as they get. But that's why if all the vulnerable were being abused, the country would be ahead of schedule. The empire was to swell up and hold many sparks in the country. If you're going to hit your hand, you better hurry. You don't have to abandon the martial arts. But I want you to learn that's not all you can do."

It tells Emperor Lukeheim in a voice that often passes with his eyes closed so that he can put in a genuine prayer.

"I believe that the pioneer is King Orphans and you. Princess Anisphere."

"Ha ha..."

"If Princess Anisphere had made so many sacrifices for the development of magic, you would not have done this today if you were such a person. That's why Princess Anisphere's influence is at stake, and it's a piece of paper. That sounds like the princess herself."

…………

I could not return anything to Emperor Lukeheim's words.

If I had proceeded with this knowledge of magic for my own desire, without thinking about it or people's annoyance or sacrifice. If it did turn out that way, I might not have been able to be on this occasion as a princess.

a piece of paper, said Emperor Lukeheim. I think I'm in danger, and that's something I feel for myself, and maybe Father and Mother felt for me too. Still, I can stay here as a princess.

If I close my eyes, my father's back and my mother's voice reprimanding me quickly came to mind. I accidentally smile bitterly.

(... really great people, Father and Mother)

I'm here now because those people raised me. I felt my chest warm on that feeling, and I was embarrassed and dyed my cheeks to the vermilion.
