Umi to Kaze no Oukoku

The next morning, Shaw headed to the Dahlia to see Captain Cains when he dropped Melt off for an early voyage on the Eltoria, but he was about to get drunk with the smell of booze, and he's hungover and laid back.

"You should get some sleep."

I leave the care of Captain Cains, who told me to have an reception with Shaw, to the Ingas deck manager, and I'll be back out by the time I wake up drunk.

Karin was not on a short voyage from Sands Island, so she was giving the crew a day off in turns. I wanted to take a bone break at the embassy until I was ready to sail, but Erica caught me and made me give martial arts instruction.

Erica, Mimi and Melissa originally wore protective techniques, but never learned swords or bows.

"Have a sword."

The embassy has a number of samurai officers to escort, so we also have a training sword. I thought Karin might be a little heavy on the girl, but the three of them unexpectedly wield a circle of swords.

"Were you learning to sword dance? But the sword of martial arts and the sword dance are different."

Karin had Mimi and Melissa put together to practice the meeting, but was surprised by the excess intensity, and this stops her if she gets hurt. Because it was a fulfillment sitting next to Shaw at dinner.

Since Erica always had a monopoly on one side, there was a fierce battle over the next seat with only one, so he hung it up and started a meeting.

"An archery of swords is not like a fight! If you're not serious, stop auditioning."

Scolded by harsh Karin, Melissa and Mimi reflect and apologize. Karin thought it was dangerous to put these two together, let Mimi practice with Erica, and she decided to practice with Melissa.

"Brother Karin, are you putting on an archery of swords?

Shaw dropped Melt off and went out to talk to Captain Cains, but Karin was surprised when he returned early, but said he would put on the sword arch just fine.

"Oh, Brother Karin, your strength is stained."

"Back in the day, you were the little suke. Now he's as tall as I am. You're still getting martial arts guidance at Leite, aren't you?

When I was in Leyte, I received an archaic sword from Melissa reluctantly saying that he had received a martial arts guide but didn't want to arch with Karin, the martial arts officer, in addition to being tapped by Chancellor Flanagan.

"Good luck, Master Shaw!

With the support of Melissa and the others, Shaw fought pretty well, but Karin still had a few more arms.

"You're a little under-examined."

Sure, he was busy socializing with New Paloma and diplomacy from Jungfrau, but Shaw reflected that Erica and the pardons were wielding him to skip the sword archery.

"It's been a long time since I've put on an archery"

Then, surprisingly, for two hours, Shaw sweated when Karin gave him an archery.

"It was kind of a mockery, but it flew away"

I used to hate to have Karin do the archery, but Shaw laughs that it's not bad to just think about the sword and sweat.

"Are you worried about something? I don't know about diplomacy, but I can listen to it."

In the east room of the garden, Shaw consulted Karin about being held by Crown Prince Alexei of the Kingdom of Laurent to the fringe of Misha, the bastard's sister, and about being applied to one of Princess Zelia's son-in-laws by Queen Alger of the Kingdom of Surah.

"It wouldn't be in our interest to have the common son of the Kingdom of Laurent or something like that. But the kingdom of Sura is a country that has gained strength on the Golce continent, and Princess Zelia is a trail to be considered."

Woo Shaw gets stuck in words.

"Brother Karin, the Kingdom of Surah is full of snakes. I can't."

Karin, speaking of which, laughs that Shaw hated snakes.

"What are you talking about like a child? And with you on such a giant dragon, you won't be afraid of snakes."

"Brother Karin, please don't bring snakes and dragons together! Ah... but you were talking about Queen Alger's Snake Death. Maybe it's still better because I can tell you to stay away from talking snakes."

Karin can only laugh at her brother, who talks to the snake.

"Tomorrow I have a meeting with His Majesty King Edoardo, but I wonder if it's possible to talk to Bastard from here on out, and I'm in trouble with it. I don't want any more forgiveness, and I'm sorry for foreign princesses."

I'm glad Karin wasn't named the successor to make it.

"I don't think we can do this in the rear palace of the Southeast Islands, such as the princess of the three former empires. Our country's women are scared. Especially since your pardons are royal women, they'll snore at foreign princesses."

Shaw gets chills on his back with his zombies over Karin's words, who refuses to go home because of a dispute between his six wives.

"Ambassador Pasham told me not to turn down the fringe on the spot, but I still can't, so I say no. I can't help but notice that His Majesty King Edoardo has been disturbed, and Princess Shelley is still 10 years old and young, so she has never been scratched. Let's say no to Crown Prince Alexei!

I didn't mean to pinch my mouth on Shaw's decision, but I had doubts that they would convince me that easily.

"Well, you think about the Sura Country thing. It's not like there 'll be more ladies, and maybe if your daughter becomes the next queen, it'll be beneficial to the Southeast Islands."

That much Shaw could understand, but the snake was still the neck.

"Don't be afraid of snakes, you just have to visit Sura Country once. In the Golce continent, it's a country that's fighting for one or two, and it's promising as a trader."

"As far as I'm concerned, it's easier to visit a leopard-loving Savannah country..."

With that said, if you visit a polygamous Savannah country, Shaw will tremble that many princesses are likely to be there.

Having spoken to Brother Karin and feeling refreshed, Shaw also enjoyed the evening liquor at Lexington Harbor.

"Captain Cains, let's sail together!

Cains stopped worrying about returning Shaw, who is quite drunk, with a dragon, but will go home with Sands tomorrow because it is a meeting with His Majesty King Eduardo. But Sands safely took the drunk Shaw back to the embassy, but when he got to the dragon house, he fell asleep.

'Shaw, it's time to wake up. You're back because you have a meeting with Eduardo today.'

Sands wakes me up and Shaw gives a big noose.

"Uh-huh, Sands, you slept in the dragon house..."

When I shook my head off the straw on my hair, I unzarred by my liquor odor and hurried to the embassy that I had to take a bath.

When a refreshing shaw in a hot bath is eating breakfast in the dining room, Ambassador Pasham pulls into the study to hold a meeting before the meeting.

"Prince Shaw, I've been looking into the contents of some of King Edoardo's talks. Oh, of course, they may bring up Princess Shelley's case, but it doesn't seem like that's the case. It looks like pirates frequent villages and towns in the northwest of the Kingdom of Cazaria and are raiding. I have a bad feeling about this."

"Are you kidding me, that pirate is from the Southeast Islands?

Shaw changed his complexion, but Ambassador Pasham is not familiar with the situation in the northwest of the border either.

"It is also believed that Minister for Foreign Affairs Zahaan has moved because he has thoroughly defeated pirates around the Southeast Islands...... I can't say much, but the Kingdom of Laurent is suspicious."

"No way! Prince Alexei was raised in the Kingdom of Cazaria."

"No, I don't think Prince Alexei or King Rudolph are involved, but I was wondering if the refugees who ate in the Kingdom of Laurent and the pirates who were driven out of the Southeast Islands might have assembled around the Kingdom of Salaam..."

Shaw had doubts about that one, recalling King Hertz of the Kingdom of Salam, who met in several discussions after the wedding. The Kingdom of Salam, an island nation floating northwest of the Kingdom of Kazalia, is a small country that has only poor soil, albeit a stream of old empires. Shaw didn't have much of a crush on King Hertz's Southeast Islands when his attitude about his nose just said he was rich and envious in the talks.

"Sure, you managed to get a better deal with the Kingdom of Salam or something. However, I thought merchant ships wouldn't lean on one-way routes without products worth exporting..."

Ambassador Pasham also found King Hertz's request odd.

"Let me do a little research. I remember the rumors that bothered me…"

To the offending Ambassador Pasham, Shaw asks what the rumors are.

"Uh-huh, it's just a rumor, thank you. The Kingdom of Salam is not buying and selling refugees from the Kingdom of Laurent or peasants from the northwest of the Kingdom of Kazaria... I'm not sure, though, that whorehouses in New Paloma have been selling out the daughters of the depleted refugees of the Kingdom of Laurent and the poor peasant daughters of the northwest of the Kingdom of Cazaria to their parents for a long time."

Shaw couldn't say anything harsh because there are also whorehouses in the Southeast Islands, but I don't think he would listen to being exposed to pirates and sold off.

"Well, please don't be so angry. Isn't the Principality of Malta in the Arzier Sea a hub for human trafficking? That's the old system, and it's not a matter of talking, and it's a place to exchange hostages attacked by pirate ships."

Shaw also frowned at the Principality of Malta and became angry that it might be the base of a pirate ship.

"Well, Lord Jalis of the Principality of Malta wants friendship with our country, and he just says that pirate ships often escape in on occasion. That country is a small country, but it's indispensable for trading in the Arzier Sea, which is why I'm patient with this one. Besides, you just have to ambush the pirate ship that escapes into the port of the Principality of Malta."

Condemnations were also concentrated at the mouths of the South-East Islands, which are splitting up the front of pirate ships, and this time was also brought up in discussions that the rate of taking compensation was too high for the return of merchant damage in their own country.

"With all this pirate crusade, why aren't there fewer pirates? Even pirate ships can't do it if they don't have a port to replenish them!

Isn't it because the Principality of Malta and the Kingdom of Salam are sheltering pirates? The Hedge Kingdom also provides pirates with a crushed people "

The Hedge Kingdom is an island country in the northeast of the Kingdom of Iran, where there are many men who suffer on poor soil and board pirate ships, often attacking merchant ships in the southeast islands. However, unlike King Hertz of the Kingdom of Salaam, King Lutos of the Kingdom of Hedge did not defend pirates who neither paid taxes nor, although he would not crusade pirates because he was an asshole.

The Kingdom of Iran did not allow its own territory to be attacked by pirates, and had allowed the Dragon Knights to patrol the coast, but it was always letting the pirate ships escape in a crude navy.

Thanks to its crude navy, the Southeast Islands had smuggled the Iranian kingdom's ban on the export of wheat to the Kingdom of Laurent, but the merchants who had been grabbed with crude Dakat gold coins did not make much money.

Shaw witnessed the wreckage of a merchant ship that was attacked by a pirate ship on several occasions, making him want to turn away from its misery, so he bites his back teeth tightly.

"Prince Shaw, if you get hot, you'll be in the pot His Majesty King Eduardo thinks you are."

Admired by Ambassador Pasham, Shaw takes a deep breath that he is right.
