Tower of Karma

William was busy with his business. The world was surprised by the new information that kept coming in, the Apollonia that ravaged San Baltic engaged its allies, Garias, in a winter but unusual war. Apollonia won that battle, the doomsday of painting mud on the face of the superpower Garias. I'm no longer surprised. Apollonia was a monster of that dimension. That's all.

"For a while Garias will also be pursued by Saint Bart, no, and the Arkland measures. The Sambalt Army is not the only opponent of the Seven Kingdoms that can easily escape with Garias. Land then cross the mountains or fight in narrow canyons... this is Apollonia's realm"

It should be too late for what happened in San Baltic to ripple through Arcadia. Think so. The House of Lords and others are relaxed, but the military doesn't either. If Gallias is full of Arkland, Ostberg is free, which means we have to rush to rebuild Laconia. Besides, if Ostberg moves, the Nederks will attack him, too. Depending on Estado's movements, he will be the wingman fighting both main forces.

"Hurry up and send the materials to Laconia. Transfer in the snow can be expensive? Fool, give him as much money as he wants. It can't be the same as before. Must be a stronger fortress than before. How many frozen victims did you know? This situation, time takes precedence over anything."

Repeat the authorization using the one-by-one order and the powers conferred on it by Baldias. William must control the entire Second Army movement as its head. Besides...

"The materials we had prepared have been received by the Third Army, and the First Army!

"Don't imitate me licking you long enough. There's a three-army style that's only a wind front light.... Pursuit is behind us. Waste of time. Turn your hands around. I'll talk to the First Army."

There is coordination with each army. The construction of a bridge that can cross the Roulya River promptly, also accessible by Browstat, is in a hurry. It is understandable that the First Army and the Second Army collide. Both sides are in a hurry. But the Third Army is not. Now the Third Army is in a crisis of survival with the loss of Kaspar. The Second Army, which wants to move forward in the direction of abolition, and the Third Army, which tries to protect its historical self. I guess the Third Army wants to sell favors to the First Army in this matter. To be on your side.

"Time is finite. Do your best!

William's twilight spirits the scene. Three days after Ernesta's birthday party, William didn't come home once and wasn't even asleep in the first place.

William took a nap in a moving carriage and stepped down to his own chamber of commerce. I have to take the helm more than Einhardt is absent. The Dietvalts are brilliant merchants, but there is not enough trust on both sides to make them do as they please. If left alone, the Chamber of Commerce could even be taken over.

"... you look amazing"

William's face was amazingly crushed by Dietwalt.

"I brought you a job. Armament enhancements have been confirmed. I'll pass this chamber of commerce for everything I can. If you can't prepare it domestically, get it from abroad."

"It's winter now. In such an easy situation to import and export..."

"You can't do it. Do it, but don't ever wave a job to another five chambers of commerce."

"It's unscrupulous...... okay. You just have to do it. I'll get it ready somehow."

The Lewius Chamber of Commerce moves busily as soon as possible. It's a big job. If we get through this, we can have some track record. If you do your job without spilling a drop, some of the iron that other chambers of commerce are holding back will flow here. All we need is victory, that's all.

"I accepted the order. Leave the rest to us. What, we don't have enough room right now to get weird. And there's nothing you can do about it right now."

William bowed his head to Veerant's words. Fluffy out as it is. It's the sleeper who's attacking him, or something beyond that.

"It's a terrible situation. Aren't you gonna spread your hands too wide?

Gigisvalt shakes his head after William is gone, for God's sake.

"No, I guess this is where the battle is. If we win out here, we'll see ahead. If you lose, that's it. He's not alone, it's the first time we've all won."

Einhardt in the far north, the four in Arkas, the centre of this country, all winning out is a condition of victory. It is not a situation where people say that the minutes are bad.

"Now how far can we go?"

Dietwalt grins. The youthfulness of that grin lacked old weight, but lived in a youthful challenging flame that transcended age. The other two live in the same flame again.

If you win, you survive, if you lose, you disappear. The thrill-filled line continues.

William returned to his own home for the first time in three days. The purpose is to get some sleep. If we do that, we will be descending in a progressive fashion at present, we need to return to the royal palace to do our job. It is physically and mentally complete, but if you do all this, the crisis of the kingdom, and hence the position that you have built up, will also be jeopardized.

For the first time after reaching the front door, William realized that the gates and doors were not locked. There comes a glimmer of surprise. I thought this house was deserted.

When you open the door, there's...

"Welcome back"

Victoria was there, laughing, as usual. Although it is a weaker grin than usual, it is unexpected that one person or three days remained because of all that.

"... I thought you were home exactly once"

William shares his honest thoughts.

"Eh heh. I need to talk to you for a minute... can you give me a moment after you're off?

Victoria's offer, there are no vacancies on William's appointment. But William thought a lot about the signs of Victoria.

"If I can talk to you right now,"

"Thank you, William"

Live in a full body of creation. What is needed is thought. I don't know what results Vlad has had, but the way he shakes himself will also change depending on how the answer is given. In William's thinking, Leodegar thought Victoria, and around Ernesta to himself, was the natural flow.

"Tired?

"You look pretty pale there, too. You haven't slept?

"I'm asleep. Mm-hmm. Isn't that a little bit of other manners?

Probably a lie. If you look at me like that, you'll see. The neighborhood under her eyes speaks eloquently.

"That's what I think I'm going to tell you now."

"... right"

The two lined up in front of a small pond in a small garden as a noble abode. A garden like a toy, as it stands, represents the relationship between the two of us. Nothing can be done, only feelings and surroundings preceded the relationship.

"What did Count Vlad tell you?

"Nothing. 'Cause Mr. Leodeger said he was going to give me some time, and I don't think I can move now, no matter what your father had in mind"

An unexpected answer for William. I thought it was in the form of Vlad's offer to talk about his disapproval. If not...

(Is that a change of heart? He was a good man, for sure, and he would have both the money and the status. If that's the case, it's quick to talk. and easier to understand than anything else)

William reads that it is Victoria's change of heart. If that's the case, then it's easy for me to be William. It is out of the question to kick it out at this convenience, and internal factors are more lending to Vlad than external factors. The real deal is that it will be muddy on this face for once, and it will be very helpful for you to do nothing yourself.

"So what's the story?

Victoria is laying face down. The reflection of the shaky surface of the water. Does it look distorted, or is there another factor...

"For the first time, he told me he liked it"

A statement that went a long way off William's assumptions. I take it for a moment that I'm wrong to hear it.

"I love you, you told me"

William puts his head on. I wondered if you were really going to waste your time with that convenience. Too many flower gardens, too different from my own way of life to engage.

"Yeah, sure. I wouldn't be with a woman if I didn't love her."

William was getting ridiculous. I like Leodegar now. It's convenient for me. Vlad tells me to marry you under Leodegar. In the middle of the assumption, it's easy to understand. It wasn't, and I was truly convinced of love with convenience in such a setting. It's too thin and I get revulsion.

"I said it again.... Hey, do I look so stupid?

"Huh?"

William didn't see Victoria's face. From earlier on, nobody knows if you dared or unconsciously did. Still, he was looking away as a matter of fact. From the face of a man named Victoria...

"I know William doesn't like me. I also know that William is treating me politely to avoid damaging your father's mood. I know I was forced into it, and I know I was frustrated. I also knew that my taste was annoying."

William saw Victoria's face for the first time since he came here. William understood when he saw the void grin, teasing, thirsty grin in its face. that I made a big mistake.

"But that night, I felt like you were holding my hand or something, little by little lately, but getting closer. Calling it off with courage, waiting all the way in the front door, seeing each other a little more often, just a little bit forward..."

William looks at himself these days. Indeed, William's reluctance to Victoria had disappeared unconsciously. Regardless, it doesn't make sense to shy away, it just happened lightly about the other person, and it should be.

"My liking, it made sense, and it was so much fun every day -"

Victoria's face is distorted. I smile, I can't keep it, and the face I was hiding comes to me.

"- That's why I was alarmed. I thought I got a little closer, and I forgot. William didn't like me either, you knew it, but he didn't get close at all, not a single step from the day we first met."

My voice was trembling. Tears were falling.

"Um, I love you, it hurt so much. I don't care what else they say. Stupid or dumb, loud or whatever... even if they say they don't like it, they might rather be happy if they don't... because it means they've made progress out of indifference"

William was wondering if the human crying face he always laughed at was so powerful. It was the first time in William's life that such tears had occurred. I've seen as many tears with the root in the negative direction. I trampled it all the way here. But how can we tears like this, where love is the root?

William is confused.

"It hurts, and right now, it doesn't laugh well. You can't have a daughter-in-law who looks like this, can you? If you're not laughing all the time, you can't be like your mother unless you brighten everyone up."

Victoria wets her tears.

And with a nasty, too nasty grin...

"So I'm going home once. I'm sorry for being selfish."

Keep your head down with dust. William could only look down at it.

"When I get funny, I'll come back to see you. At that time, if I hear your voice, any voice, if I hear your true voice... yeah, I'll do my best."

The best grin I can do right now. William couldn't speak out when he saw that distorted grin. Nor does my mouth move at all, which should go around often. What can you do where it moved in the first place? What do I intend to do?

"Excuse me. Let me take your time about myself."

"No, I don't mind. Shall I send it?

"It's okay. I've been out of exercise lately, so I'm walking back."

"Well, be careful"

"Yes! William, please rest."

Nothing, it's not coming out. I don't know what to serve. It was my first experience that I could not find such a solution. A man who has spoken to any opponent, a man who, if not with his mouth, has solved it in the exercise of his strength, a man who has solved everything...

All I could do was keep staring at my back running away.

○

Finish your first sleep in a long time and open the living room door. The place, which should normally be noisy even in silence, had turned into a space of quiet without a single sound. William, who is supposed to prefer silence. But there is no grin on that face. I'd rather...

By himself, William jumped out of the world of silence.

An inconspicuous house existed at the corner of a dim alley. It was currently an empty house and there was not even any indication that the poor location combined with the dirty buildings would ever sell. In the first place, the owner is not sure, and sometimes this is a slum area, and the country is not actively involved. And there were certain rumors that turned it into a space where even the vagabonds wouldn't lean on it.

"This is what Count Vlad does. I know you very well."

There were several men in the basement of that empty house, in a place where no one would be. One cared somewhat for himself, but a man with a degrading atmosphere out of his face. A few others were wearing it, but their eyes were sharp, and the heat in their eyes seemed to be breaking off.

"Were you involved, too?

The man who cared about himself shakes his head in advance.

"I don't know. It's only recently that I found out I was doing that, and that's why I thought I'd teach you guys. It's hard to suspect."

Did the men convince you once, get the killer they were pointing at? I don't know if I felt it or not, but the little beautiful man took a breath and looked around.

"Look, Vlad is at his peak right now. My proud daughter finally called the Grand Duke. If it works, my daughter will be mixed up in the blood of the Grand Duchess and royalty. That's the situation that makes sense to abduct my daughter. If you abduct that girl, Vlad will be able to drag her out easily."

The inferior face is even more distorted.

"Here's the plan. Catch the rich daughter who came out of Lewis' mansion. Capture him, incarcerate him here and send a letter to the Count's house. If you want my daughter back, he'll come to the designated location with the money. After that, you can capture the Earl, and cook and bake and like."

The eyes of all but the man with the inferior face glowed with darkness. They have different skin colors and hair colors, or they come from the wrong place. They seemed to have nothing in common at first glance, but they had something in common.

"I don't know who you are and what your intentions are. I don't even want to know. What matters to us... is whether we can kill that hateful man who took our beloved wife. Can you really drag Vlad out of that operation?

That it was a vengeful, that they were men deprived of their families because of Vlad's vices.

"If we succeed, we can drag you out. That girl, who used to be a troublemaker, now also has an irreplaceable value for gold eggs, gold. I'll pay you as much as I want."

"I see. Fine, I'll get on with your story. How's everybody?

Everyone expressed their willingness to agree. Now the plan moves.

All causes and consequences turn. And most things appear as unexpected forms.
