Unmotivated Hero’s Tale (WN)

King's capital Ertbourg.

The building present in the heart of this king's capital, which presides over the centre of the kingdom of Clarice, in one of its rooms, one woman had received bitter reports from a magnificent man.

"In view of the above, as a Ministry of Strategy, I was wondering if it would take some time to rebuild the army in relation to the budget"

"I knew it, but as far as this goes, you have no choice."

Clarice's young queen Elise von Ertbout exhales a small sigh when she puts the draft budget for next season in her hands on her desk.

Then Armad von Liesled, Under-Secretary of State for Strategy, put his hand lightly on his chin, while he turned to her like that and put his thoughtless proposal in its mouth.

"Instead, there might be one reduction in armaments based on the current size."

"Is it shrinking..."

"Are you dissatisfied?

Seeing Elise react baffled, Armad asks so in candid words.

As soon as he did, Elise opened its mouth, smiling bitterly, as she shook her little bits.

"No, I didn't, I just thought that day would come when such an opinion would come up from the military"

"Ha, sure. It's really uncomfortable to think calmly, even if you're the one who said it."

Until now, there have been unlimited disarmament demands from the Ministry of the Interior. In contrast, it is the learning of this country that has repeatedly maintained the status quo as a compromise by making demands for military expansion from the military on the contrary.

Although in the most recent years we have been caught up in countless disturbances and not in a situation where the status quo has been maintained.

"Under-Secretary, if the House of Lords is gone and you want to proceed with reform, it's the only time, isn't it?"

"Yeah. Precedents pile up anyway soon. Whether you want it or not, of course."

"Is it precedent…"

With Armad's remarks in his ear, Elise exposes her disgust with that look.

Meanwhile, Armad, who witnessed such a reaction from her, provided a supplementary explanation while gently spreading her hands left and right.

"I don't want you to get me wrong, it's not a bad thing to learn from a precedent. Some degree of efficiency is needed more than moving a large organisation called the State. Because it's virtually impossible to ignore precedents and make payments each time."

"That may be true. I just don't think you should be in a situation where you can't move like you did when you were my father."

"Oh, no, I don't think it's true that in a precedent-only country, someone created an organization called SS or something."

As soon as Armad said so, the two laughed at each other as they looked at each other.

And now at a time when the story was about to move to the Ministry of Strategy's annual plan, one blonde jumped rushing into the room.

"Dear Elise, it's hard"

"What's wrong, Eince? So hasty."

Even if some SS members are still uncomfortable that Aince, the nobleman among the nobles, has rushed in disregarding the liturgy, Elise asks.

Then, out of breath, he handed Elise a single seal in his hand.

"Ha, ha, seniors... regarding the example"

"About the example... Oh, you know what?"

Elise, who perceived the requirement from Eince's words, begins to look through the contents of the seal with a bitter look on her face.

"What about Yui's?

"I've been officially notified. Lemuriak from this Clarice..."

"I'll make you independent. With today."

The voice emanated from beyond the door, which remained open.

And beyond which the same gaze was turned was the figure of a dark-haired man who had taken the Undersecretary of the Army Ministry.

"Yui!"

"We're out of time, Master Elise. No, I was actually going to come through before the circular arrived, but I really ate time to leave the country."

Yui scratches her head with a bitter smile as she speaks so.

But listening to his remarks like that, Armad never lost his chill, and he asked in his usual tone.

"Hmm, leaving the country...? So you already recognize Lemuriak as a nation."

"Oh, was there a teacher there too? I don't mean to, but it's just pre-construction, like, a country or independence."

"Jianmae..."

After receiving words from the mouth of Sarasa and Yui, Elise unexpectedly ceases.

Meanwhile, Armad, once the instructor in charge, opened his mouth bitterly.

"There would never have been a nation or independence that was treated so lightly. No, it sounds like you."

"Uncle, it's not a joke."

"Excuse me. Excuse me. Anyway, Alex, I don't know if that standing position will catch you for a second."

Armad, stung by Eince, moves back diagonally of Yui's gaze.

Then the red-haired man standing there opened his mouth with his usual fox eyes slightly narrowed.

"I don't mean to participate independently. I just got permission to put some of the Army's troops in an independent country."

"... Yui, is that your offer?

"Mine or the Western Conference arrangement..."

"I think it was the result of personal discussions with Mr. Feliam and Crown Prince Noyne, not the Western Conference,"

"Sure. Yes, he was."

In response to Alex's allegations, Yui gives his consent with a mild laugh.

He took it and turned his words in a frightened tone as Armad shook his neck left and right.

"I guess he also speaks to the Crown Prince of the Empire, who is not officially in the Western Conference. At that point, I think it's equal to the biggest arrangement in the West. Either way, is that your decision as a Western Union marshal?

"No, that's not it. Of course, I'm trying to make the most of my standing."

"Well, what's the direct purpose?"

"Well, if you dare, is it to put a piece on your own hand?"

Yui clearly tells him that while slightly pointing his gaze in the direction of the day after tomorrow.

"Turn on the...? Fine. Independence."

"Ah, Master Elise. Are you sure? ⁉"

Leaning Elise, who let her snort lightly, Aince mouths like that with her eyes open.

"For a long time, the possibility of that option should have been offered by him. It's the first time I've ever explained myself."

"More than that, on the day of independence…"

"No, I want ears"

In response to the words of Armad pinched, Yui smiles bitterly as he writes his head.

Then a sharp word was uttered by the young rulers of this country towards him like that.

But Yui, there are two conditions.

"... let me ask you something"

"First of all, I acknowledge Remliak's independence. And it's also about bringing people from all over the country there. To that end, if you say you need the passage of our country, let us also give the utmost consideration. Instead, only Remliak shall be the independent autonomy of the Kingdom of Claris. What do you say?

Elise presses for a straight answer to Yui as she turns her shooting gaze toward Yui.

Taking it, Yui shook his head vertically with a sigh after a slight cruise.

"Right. Is that the first drop?"

"It's painful for this country to have your presence gone, not just your abilities, but that name alone. Don't think I'm a condition of circular form for both sides, too. Although it is inherently a major concession of our country."

Seeing the about exchanged between Elise and Yui, Armad credits it so with a slightly bitter look.

Yui turned that gaze to Elise again after smiling bitterly to be caught, either because he had no objection to the review.

"Still, what is one condition?

"One of the four seats was vacant in our country the other day. I want you to sit there."

Where the words Elise spoke meant, it was obvious.

That's why Yui wrinkles between her eyebrows.

"I wonder if it would be better to place the traitor again in the seat opened by the traitor..."

"Hehe, then act like you won't let me tell you I betrayed you. Nice, Lord Yui Istarz"
