Watashi wa Teki ni Narimasen!

◇ ◇ ◇

If you noticed, Reggie was looking out the window the whole time.

Alan stopped by wondering what he had found... and regretted that.

It's from the upstairs window, so I can't see everything.

Shi 'a's roof also hid their appearance by about a third.

It's just that a pair of men and women are there. I could see him sitting pretty close.

"Ugh..."

Really awkward.

There were times when those two could be friends instead of friends I knew, or someone I had replaced my brother with... more importantly, next door, there's Reggie.

After Wentworth lets her go, he leaves Shia after talking to both of us for a little while. The way Chiara walked ahead and Wentworth followed suit the two of us as usual.

In the meantime, Alan was asking about Reggie.

What Reggie likes about Chiara is well known among those close by.

I know it's to protect Chiara, who doesn't have a back shield, and to keep the good bugs from sticking, because there's no way I'm going to imitate that at last.

However, I guess I normally like Chiara now.

Reggie stepped away from the window without saying anything in particular after staring at the two.

"Hey......"

Alan, who accidentally spoke up, didn't know what to say any more. Reggie looks back better though.

"You don't have to worry, Alan. Chiara has always been and always will be a magician in the Falgian army."

No matter who Chiara likes, it doesn't change what she protects. I think that's what he's saying, but Alan felt something very strange.

"But are you good with that?

If I accidentally asked, Reggie would have a troubled look. Then I laughed like I was in trouble.

"What a face, Alan. That's not how it gets serious, is it?

Although Reggie, who made me say hello, looked like nothing really.

"But you don't like it, do you?

The moment I said it, Reggie disappeared all the time. But only his mouth spewed out words that were backwards to his emotions.

"If Chiara chose, that's fine with me."

◇ ◇ ◇

A few days after the festival.

Reconnaissance troops returned from Trisfeed as funding from Delphion and others proceeded well, and soldiers were being restructured.

According to their report, Salehard appears to be beginning to consolidate his system of domination in the castle of Count Trisfeed.

Salehardo is a northern country, so he wants a little southern land. He had also been targeting Trisfeed and the northern territories of Evrard for a long time.

So even in their deal with Luain, Reggie and the others said they might have wanted a Trisfeed.

Those of the Luein army who withdrew together to Trisfeed are hissing with Count Kilrea territory west of Delphion by boat, he said.

From both Trisfeed and Kilrea, they're planning to attack Delphion at the same time.

However, there seems to be some confusion in the King's capital, and it does not appear that the army of Luain can be summoned to Delphion immediately.

The reason for this was surprising.

"The queen is crowned? Not King Luain's annexation?

The knight who was commanding the reconnaissance unit nodded at the inquiry of the Marquis of Azur.

Mr. Growl was present at the meeting when the reconnaissance unit returned with the people below Reggie as generals plus me and Mr. Cain the auxiliary.

The knight, who was standing at the last seat and reporting, continues to report.

"It's the left. Apparently, the Queen has taken the throne and promised the following Falgian aristocrats to set aside their territory as it is, giving it to the Ruein aristocrats for the territory crusaded by the Ruein army."

"I'm going to flatter the nobles..."

"But will King Luain accept that the queen will be king? Until now, Ruein has merged into his own country, no matter what country it is."

Both Reggie and Alan have a slightly puzzled look in their mouths at the speculation.

"... there has been a disagreement between King Ruein and the Queen."

"It is also possible that we planned to govern separately from the original"

Mr Jerome will make a statement to the opinion of Count Ennistel.

I was about to get a crease between my eyebrows.

Until earlier, Reggie and I had difficulty face-to-face, just looking down.

I already felt perfectly fine if I didn't see him, but when I saw him, he would be so suspicious of his behavior that he wanted to stay calm and not look at his face.

But that feeling also blows to the inexplicability of the Queen's actions.

If the queen had planned to rule Falgia from the beginning, I wondered if she would use some other method.

Assassination of the present king, for example.

He had flexed a large number of Falzian nobles, so he could have assassinated the king before the Luein army invaded him and forced him to be crowned even in the gap where Reggie came to Evrar.

Whether it was necessary in the first place to ravage the land by the Luainian army.

There must have been a hand in calling the nobility of Luain along with the soldiers for some reason, to occupy only the castle.

Reggie and the others agree, so I guess I'm confused.

"That's why we didn't seem to gather soldiers in Kilrea, and Ruein's soldiers were interested in laughing that if the attack on Delphion continued like this, we might be going over the winter with Trisfeed"

At the end of the knight's report, it was slightly more and Earl Ennistel snapped.

"If you're going to do it now... I guess. At a time of relaxation, it would be a shame if reinforcements missed this opportunity not to come right away."

Silently, those who met together, except me, nod.

"How was the information from the woman from Trisfeed on the case"

Reggie answers Marquis Azul's question.

"Somewhat overheard the information, but didn't seem to know so much"

"Was it Master Left..."

Was the Marquis Azur relying on information from Mr. Aida, which seemed unfortunate?

"Later, to the neighborhood where Trisfeed's girlfriend's house was ruling, I don't think they're going to be able to give me as much directions, and I think it would be better for her to keep it temporarily in Delphion."

"I have no problem keeping it. We will also hire those who were traveling to and from Trisfeed on the north side of Delphion territory to guide us here, so there will be no problem around there."

Mr. Ernesto nods at Reggie's proposal, who has become the new Baron Delphion.

"Besides, even as a Delphion, if His Highness's army stays apart like this, it could be Ami the original tree being attacked by Salehardo. I hope you can level the northern tris feed if possible. I would also like to contribute a large number of soldiers to that end, as well as Kilrea..."

I have something to do with Count Kilrea's territory.

If we don't consolidate our defense against you, Ruein will attack us all the time, even if we don't have an alignment of soldiers.

"As for your defense, I understand, Baron Delphion. I'd rather know the real numbers that can be divided between the two sides."

"Ha. On the Kilrean side, I led two thousand and plan to seal off the border. To Trisfeed, take Emeline, and three thousand."

"You have a weak defensive side."

Alan put his arms together.

"We plan to follow up with reinforcements from the cooperating territories. It'll take about two weeks for you to get there, but why don't we send five grand of reinforcements over there?

Reggie nods to Alan's suggestion.

"Then three days to be ready. Then we leave, initially for the fort Zeran at the south end of Trisfeed"

Now the policy has been decided.

With three days of preparation, each leaves the small hall of Castle Delphion to contact his own army.

I also worry as I leave the small hall late.

Trisfeed was a game, a territory that continued to resist the Ruein.

It's a little off the road to the Wang capital, so I guess it's because the Luein army would have had no problems marching on if they could occupy Delphion too.

So when it comes to fighting in the Trisfeed, it's a completely off-game event.

That means I don't have any knowledge of combat either... I feel kind of scared before I head out.

Besides, Luain is not the only opponent. We must also fight the Salehards.

I guess I'll see Isaac again.

"I can't believe I didn't have to kill..."

No matter how much I think about it, I can't think of it.

Then you have to be prepared to kill someone you know.

"That man is an enemy. That man is an enemy..."

I shrugged my lips as I chanted so many times in my heart.
