─ ─ Villain Warrant Lady and National Strategy

"Congratulations, Master Astrid!

The winter break ended and the school began.

But as soon as I entered the classroom, Meine mentioned something unusual about you.

"What? What?

"It's not what it is. Didn't His Majesty the Emperor say Astrid must have been the Crown Princess? You're finally bound to His Highness Friedrich!

"Uh..."

Did His Majesty the Emperor already tell you what you didn't need at the dinner party?

"Meine. I was at the dinner party, but His Majesty never said he wanted to welcome me to the Crown Princess. You just said the Empire needed strong talent, and you never said anything about me to the Crown Princess."

"Is that so? His Majesty the Emperor heard you say that the woman known as the devil deserved His Highness Friedrich......"

"Okay. Normally, I don't make a princess of a guy called Satan."

Absolutely! I'm in trouble because His Majesty the Emperor says weird things!

You ignore my will in the first place! I don't want to marry Naota Friedrich! Why do I have to marry a guy who's 180 degrees off my taste! Fuck off!

"Then who the hell did His Majesty the Emperor say deserved to be married to?

"I don't know. He said he'd like someone who knew the battlefield, so I'm sure he was someone who worked in that war, like you, Elsa. You're never the kind of guy I am. That's all for sure."

Ha. Nevertheless, the way His Majesty the Emperor said it undoubtedly reminds me, so I will be told this by the noble sons who are about to go out to dinner.

It makes me depressed...... I shouldn't even show my face on the round table for the time being......

"What do you look like a creepy face, Mr. Astrid?

"Beth............. My danger is at stake……………………………."

"Okay, so speak exactly."

Beth called out when I wandered around the courtyard in a depressing mood.

"Are you referring to the example court dinner party? Or is it another matter?

"It's about the court dinner party... I suppose the emperor is trying to stick me to Friedrich the heck out of everything, isn't he?

"That's why Wilhelm III was told directly."

"I'm not convinced"

If Friedrich is conscious of being a jerk, we should educate ourselves properly! The Crown Princess is not the mother who takes care of the Crown Prince! Those parents are you, Your Majesty!

"Well, I don't think the reason is what I was just saying at the dinner party"

"Huh? Is there any other reason?

What do you mean?

"Wilhelm III knows all about you, Mr. Astrid. That you are a dragon killer witch or a red devil. And it has also been certified by the Rosenkreutz Society as a disaster by exercising powerful sorcery."

"Well, I don't think I want to keep it in me."

"It's not. Wilhelm III thinks that if we welcome you into the Imperial Family, we can ensure that we have the power to destroy our nation alone."

"Eh?"

Because you want power? Is that why you want to be welcomed to the Crown Princess?

"He appreciates your power and is pleased that it is desirable for the Empire, while at the same time fearing that it is dangerous for the Empire. The Duke of Oldenburg is a famous family with ties to the Imperial family of Prussia, but it is just one of the lords."

"That's right. But what's a danger?

"I would like to say that the Duke of Oldenburg has put the Imperial Family in a position to threaten the Empire itself by holding you. You won't be able to defeat Wilhelm III right now, even if you use all the fighting power he has. You can destroy the Prussian Empire just as you destroyed the Ostraich Empire. Wilhelm III is afraid of that."

"Uh………. Be."

Indeed, if I am going to destroy your home, I am preparing to wage war against the Emperor and his Imperial opponents. He said it was this Astrid of the Dukes of Oldenburg who would win the Imperial Civil War.

For His Majesty the Emperor who governs the Empire, that would appear to be a great danger. It's hard to say that it's comfortable that an empire at its peak is threatened at the hands of a mere girl, rather than a crowd.

That's why you think it's safe inside?

"By the way, Beth, do you think I should be the Crown Princess?

"Excuse me, but I was wondering if it wasn't for you. I don't think you can do well with Mr. Friedrich, the Crown Princess, even if you become a Crown Princess, and I don't think you have a job to do."

"That's right! That's right!

I'm active, and it's a style that destroys tradition, so there's no way I can fit in with the royal family, which is a chunk of traditional culture! And Friedrich and I will never make it!

"But with the state trying to hold you in, there's got to be a lot more pressure than that. To your family, to your classmates. Can you keep putting that pressure under control?

"Hey, I'll do something about it!

Kuh. It would be against the rule for state power to harass you like that. Can such tyranny be allowed? No, you shouldn't be resolutely forgiven.

"Hey, Rosenkreutz, can't you do something about it?

"I will try my best. Because it is more dangerous for you to be a disaster in a state held by the state than for you to be a disaster as an individual. If the state gets you, a disaster, it can threaten the surrounding countries with its power, even by ignoring the Rosenkreutz association, and consequently lead to the collapse of the international order."

Oh. Don't count on me, Beth is! The Rosenkreutz Society not only monitors me, but also protects me from making the worst choices.

"But what you can do will be limited. Anyway, the other party is the state. The Rosenkreutz Association is also, in some ways, a shadow state, but the Prussian Empire has now destroyed the Ostraich Empire and has quite a free hand. It could be harder to negotiate."

"Do something about it, Beth! If I follow His Highness Friedrich, after the outbreak of the Imperial Civil War, I will have to flee to a third country!

"…… let go of all odd things at this time."

There's nothing wrong with you! When I'm about to come with Friedrich, Elsa, there will be an event involving you, and my house will be destroyed, and I will flip the flag against it, because I will fight the Imperial Civil War with the friendly lords, and if I lose, I will be the wingman fleeing to a third country!

"Oh, Elsa, not me. I want to push you, but I don't know what to do."

"You seem to be doing well with Mr. Friedrich about Mr. Elsa. But civil and royal marriages will not be accepted first. I hope the Duke Franken family acknowledges that Mr. Elsa is their own daughter soon."

"That's true! Beth, Elsa, your annoying grandfather cursed me to death with Blood Magic! Then we'll work it out!

"No, you can't. If the Rosenkreutz Society were to assassinate the Hordes, it would discredit them."

"Then I'll sneak up on you and kill you"

"Please calm down"

I can't calm down! All this confusion, Elsa, isn't it because of your annoying grandfather! Just die! Death as soon as you can!

"Did you forget that the Duke of Franken family is closer to the Imperial family than the Duke of Oldenburg? If you discover that, you will buy the royal wrath. That's what you call an imperial civil war."

"That's right............ But, Elsa, your troublesome grandfather is terrible!

Elsa, I'm gonna make you homunculus with Blood Magic, and I'm still trying to break up my own son and his wife, and no matter what you think, Elsa, I'd rather not have your troublesome grandfather!

"I do admit that. Otto, Mr. Elsa's grandfather, is a problematic person. That's why it's too short-circuited to kill. You are also a problem for the people of the Ostraich Empire who destroyed their country."

"Guru. That's right..."

For the people of the Ostraich Empire, I am the one who destroyed my country. It's for self-interest too, so the trouble is with Elsa, your annoying grandfather, isn't it?

Trouble, trouble!

"Besides, Otto is now lying on the hospital bed with a serious illness. As you said, the limit will be where we will be three years in the High Authority. You don't have to try to kill me, but time will fix it."

"Soka Na"

Elsa, I wonder if your troublesome grandfather could die soon.

"I hope your love will be more exciting if you have a disability, and ask Elsa to remain a civilian for some time now. Is that all right?

"No way! Meine and the others are totally in a nasty mood for me and Friedrich to pull, and no matter what, the country is going to try to pull me and Friedrich! Elsa, I need you to wake up as soon as possible!

You've never known how to stimulate someone else's love! The question is, will there be a hole in my stomach!

"But there's nothing we can do unless Otto waits until he dies. We can't reveal it here."

"Can't it circulate as a trivial rumor?

"I think it's risky."

It's insignificant, insignificant, Elsa. I don't know if I can get there if you spread the rumor that you're a lady in the Duke of Franken's house.

"Nor! Beth just disagreed. Give me an idea! Ideas! How I don't ruin and don't have to mess with Friedrich!

"Hmm. But I feel like the status quo has to endure. If, as you said, during her three years of high school, Ms. Elsa found out that she was from the Duke of Franken's family, you would have avoided graduating to the Crown Princess at the same time."

"Then it might be inevitable for me to destroy your home!

I can't wait any longer! Containing the Meanes is the limit!

"Do you really think it will destroy your home? They're trying to pick you up and hold you until they make you the Crown Princess. I don't think you'd dare tear down your house for fear of rebellion."

"You don't understand! The other guy is nutritionally sucked by the head flower, and he's Ahodrich! I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't understand my incredible strategic value!

Yes, it is. My opponent is Ahodrich. That flower garden in Azuma doesn't know my existential value. That's why there's a possibility that your house could be destroyed.

Besides, as Beth would say, the Duke of Franken family is a blood muscle closer to the Imperial family than the Duke of Oldenburg, and the power is higher over there, and Elsa, there is no denying the possibility that harming your mind will destroy my house.

"So, Elsa, let's kill your annoying grandfather. Let's do that."

"I think you're more likely to destroy your home."

Well, that's right............

"Ah. It's awful that I can't even fall in love freely."

"We still have a long life ahead of us, so you won't be so pessimistic."

Beth. Even if life is long, youth is in no time.

And I am dedicated to mine disposal! I wonder if this abhorrent and outrageous thing can be let loose! No, it can't be good!

I don't care if it's rumours or landmines, I want to be free to make love. With an older man who leads me, not like Friedrich.

Ha. Elsa, I wonder if your troublesome grandfather will die soon.
