Wortenia Senki (WN)

This is a room in the royal castle built in the centre of Peripheria.

Liangzhen Gozai and the assault troops led by him were told of a case of harmony by the messenger of Zaluda, who had suddenly visited him after attacking Fort Nottis, and had drawn soldiers to the king's capital, Peripheria.

(floats without knowing anything)

Liangzhen turns his derisive gaze to the castle town that spreads out the window.

Ignorance makes me happy. This is exactly what I could say.

(Poor thing)

You have no idea how dangerous a situation we are being put in.

They can only see and understand what is at hand. It's just like a kid playing on thin ice.

Sometimes it always falls to the bottom of the Naruto.

(But it's tough to see ahead...)

Behind Liang Zhen's brain, the face of Julianus, king of the Kingdom of Zaluda, surfaced.

It's not always good to be able to predict the future.

There are only a handful of people who can connect a number of events and predict the future.

And just because you could predict doesn't mean you can avoid disaster.

Because any unexpected event can happen when you are fully prepared, let alone you have no room to just put a full system in place for Zaluda today.

(It depends on your grandfather's arm later... first of all, you won't be able to do it)

Looks like he accepted the truce with a glimmer of hope, but the Ortomere side should already be ahead of the line against Julianus' move. No matter how Julianus moves now, it will not affect a large number of people.

Think realistically, there is an overwhelming lack of time to improve it on Zaluda's national power and situation being too bad. And most importantly, I guess Oltomere has proposed a ceasefire negotiation because he is already looking to win.

Liang Zhen's prediction is that there are a considerable number of traitors among the nobles belonging to the Kingdom of Zaluda. It's also quite a powerful man. Otherwise I can't explain it.

(Depends on future negotiations, but whether there is a year of stickiness until the end of the war is reopened......)

After lazily stretching out the negotiations that are going to be in full swing, Ortomere should once again end the negotiations when they are ready for war. And it will invade the kingdom of Zaluda again.

For Oltomere, this ceasefire negotiation is only because we wanted to avoid the destruction of the invading forces, and we are not seriously talking about a ceasefire with the Kingdom of Zaluda.

When that happens, the people who cheer in front of them will simultaneously return their palms and raise their voices of resentment.

Expect on your own, and if you don't get that expected result, return your palms and curse. Because I am not a person I personally dislike, there was a worrying color in Liang True's eyes that I thought of the end of Julianus.

(Well, I have no choice. I hit my hand as hard as I could. Besides, now that my purpose has been achieved at the very least, I should not be involved in the fate of this country any more...)

The people are purely joyful and cheering for the end of the war, but things are not so simple.

There was a fate of this country floating behind Liang Zhen's brain.

But such bright true thoughts missed the next moment because of the energetic weather conversation I heard from behind.

"Although it's a flavor I've never had before, you use a lot of good tea leaves. Where does it come from?

"Yes, I hear it's from Lisnorus"

"Of the Central Continent?

Sarah nods quietly at Elena's inquiry, offering a pot of ceramic in her hand.

"Dear Liang Zhen, It's something I was carrying more than Ceilios because it's my favorite. How about a replacement?

Elena was silent staring at the bottom of the empty cup, but hoisted her lips small.

"It's good to say that the slight tannins of the tea leaves go hand in hand with the aroma... well, I'll take it"

To Elena like that, now I gently offered Laura the plate in her hand.

"Oh? This?"

"It's called a macaroon with a treat that Ryo Shin told me about and made. It's delicious."

"Well, do you? Interesting shape."

As such, Elena stares at one picked shiitake, slowly chewing the macaroon into her mouth to taste lucky.

"This... you're deliberately suppressing the amount of sugar"

"Yes, it seems to be common in Ryo Shin's hometown to make it that way."

More precisely, we are not forced to reduce sugar consumption.

Above all, it is important not to upset the balance of sweetness.

"Heh... that's not bad, Ryo Makoto"

"Yeah, it made me struggle with the ingredients."

Ryo Trun laughed bitterly at Elena's words.

In the land world, where fruit and dried fruit are common when it comes to sweets, sugar sweets made by the hands of cooks are a luxurious food that can only be spoken of by humans belonging to the upper classes.

And order the cooks to spare no effort to use sugar for their own authoritativeness the more they belong to such an upper class.

That's the same thing for a regular meal.

More than taste and balance, it has become a tool for demonstrating one's own financial and political power.

The result is a really dull, dull, wildly flavored chunk of sugar from the Japanese eyes.

Even if the first bite is eaten, I get tired of two or three bites and every time I carry them to my mouth.

I can drink alcohol, but I don't hate sweet things. For Liang Zhen, I've had a really hard time with my teeth.

(You thank the flying bird...)

I was only dissatisfied when they forced me to cook with them, but when this happens, I just have to thank that cousin.

Ryo Jin sits down deeply to Elena's previous couch when she receives a cup of tea from Sarah.

"This is the end of the war..."

With her eyes down, Elena slowly opened her mouth.

"Yeah, he said it was a satisfactory result."

"Right..."

Elena pushes silence to Ryo True's words.

For starters, we pulled the Ortomean army to the border. As a reinforcement general, I can say that I have achieved enough.

Even if that's just a temporary time to buy.

"After the messenger of the truce came to explain the situation, I also spoke a little with Ecclesia..."

"Did you say something?

"He said he would keep in touch with his country and identify future moves. Well, she seems to know the thoughts on Ortomere's side, too... but honestly, I can't hit her hands."

"Any reinforcements?

Elena shook her head quietly beside Liang Zhen's question.

"Mist can never afford it either... just so we're clear, no more reinforcements."

Zaluda, Roselia, Mist. The most stable and powerful of these three eastern countries is a bustling mist dealing with the central continent.

But there are many enemies because they are rich.

The border with the South is constantly under imminent tension, and given that Mist's maximum force is the Navy, there are not many soldiers who can be sent to Zaluda.

On top of that, a war in an exotic country far from home.

Though I gave the army away because I recognize the need for reinforcements, I never prefer to fight.

In that sense, this truce is by no means a loss to the mist.

"When that happens, it's still..."

"Yeah, I'll hurry back to Roselia too... we need to hurry up and get ready for the next battle. The question is how far the reform of His Majesty Lupis is going..."

More than a year has passed since the reinforcements went to Zaluda.

It should come as no surprise that Lupis is getting some results if he can buy all that time.

"Well, I don't think it's been a busy thing."

Elena laughs bitterly in silence at Ryo True's unspoken words.

Elena herself, I guess she didn't think the reform was going on.

"It depends on His Majesty Julianus' arm how much respite there is..."

"I'll leave the rest to you. I've done enough, and I can't leave the Waltenia Peninsula any more."

Don't make yourself angry any more.

Elena turned her gaze to the bright true words of putting up such an ambush.

"Though there seems to be more room than I thought?

"I don't like it, there's no way you can afford it. It's too much. Honestly."

While that's good, Ryo Jin smiles lightly.

I can't afford it. There were no lies in that word. But that's not true either. That's what I'm saying.

If it's on schedule, the initial development of the city of Sailios, which is already home, should be about to come to an end.

Later, you just have to take some time to rule the entire peninsula under your forces.

In that sense, Ryo Trun can afford it.

But if we can afford it, we want to use it for the development of our own territory, the Waltenian Peninsula.

And...

(I don't get much more involved in this fight...)

This thought is strongly present in Ryo True.

I was able to gain a reputation for being a benevolent general in this reinforcement at the oligarchs, and as a strategist I was able to sell my name to the surrounding countries.

And above all, it can be said that the pipes with leading countries such as Ernesgoura and Misto have been quite a great achievement.

(reputation, cone, profit…)

It's not like we can't aim higher.

The extreme story, Liang Zhen, is not that he can't come up with the means to make Zaluda win the war in the true sense.

But Ryo Jin doesn't want to do it.

The problem is labor and profit. And an indefinite future statue that can't be predicted but can't be predicted.

That is where any pitfalls await is impossible for God to truly foresee.

(Well, it's greedy to aim any further at boulders)

Now that we have the results as originally planned, any more profits will be harmful to the contrary. Because profit is the biggest reason to buy jealousy from people.

Even from that point of view, it would be better to hand punish him here.

In terms of personal thoughts alone, Ryo Jin feels a stronger sense of intimacy to Julianus than Lupis and others...

"Well, that's good... because I certainly can't put any more strain on you, Ryo Jan"

Elena sighs small, wondering if she has taken such bright true thoughts away.

Elena, as an individual, it is true to say that I want to keep a handkerchief with me that I can use at least a little before the battle that happens again.

But given Liang Zhen's burden, which has not completely ended the occupation of the Waltenia peninsula either, I could not say any more.

(That kid would be a good general if he understood politics a little better, like Ryo Makoto...)

The face of a blonde young man growing on hand salt as his own side floated behind Elena's brain.

"What's wrong?

"Yeah... a little bit about Chris..."

"Chris? Oh, is that him near Mr. Elena"

There was a bitter laugh on Ryo's true face.

I wondered why Elena clouded her face.

"Didn't you get furious when you heard about this truce?

Bright and true, Elena nodded small, showing her shoulders in a tone of relaxation.

"Yeah, he bit me, too."

"Oh, that's... pretty angry."

A young man of beauty who has only been seen by women.

The figure of Chris, who distorted its beautiful face like a young man and hung it on Elena, floated behind her brain, and Ryo Jin hoisted her lips and laughed.

"Well, you have no choice. As a field commander, I think you're right, don't you? Elena seems dissatisfied."

The fact that Liang Zhen proposed this siege extermination measure was the secret of a massive blow that took time and effort is without denial specifications.

How much blood has flowed into the earth to carry out this measure?

And it won't work the second time. Standing one-time winning opportunity.

The king of Zaluda, in the country that was a party to this battle, ceased at will without acknowledging the nations that had come to reinforcements. That's also on the arrow tip where we have to squeeze up the siege net and try to destroy the invading armies of Ortomere...

If it's natural or not, it's natural for Chris to be drastically elevated.

However, that is only one criterion for judgment as a field commander.

The right choice varies as much as it takes depending on your position.

Just as the view is different at the foot of the mountain and at the top of the mountain...

"Naturally. Then nothing would be different from those two..."

That is a testament to Chris' expectations.

Elena even wants to entrust Roselia's military as her successor in the future.

The grandson who took Elena, who was murdered his own daughter, and left behind by the proximity that made him suffer together, may feel like his son.

That's why I want you to find out for yourself.

"Well, you'll have no choice. Anyway, Mr. Chris seems to have had a long period of misadventure. You know what that means, right?

He was the head of the Knights of the Kingdom of Roselia and is now the late General Ahreberg.

As Chris, who has long been neglected by him and continues to pull the poverty lottery, he is hungry for something called self-righteous appreciation and handwriting.

I guess I can't stand the fact that my surroundings are underrated in order to have good intelligence.

That goes hand in hand with his beauty into his complex.

I don't want to be insulted from my surroundings. I want my surroundings to recognize me. Such thoughts are swirling in Chris' mind.

Liang Zhen doesn't consider Chris such an ambitious man.

Because anyone wants to be duly acclaimed by people...

"Yep... right"

Elena also knows full well that Liang Zhen and Chris should not be compared.

On Chris' sword comes into the Ten Fingers among the Knights, and he's not too smart. If you say it in terms of excellence or not, Chris may say that he is precisely one of the elites responsible for the next generation of the Kingdom of Roselia.

However, because of its youth, the absurdity is noticeable.

Especially sweet reading of the movement of the human mind. And an understanding of what a country is...

(Yes, and I really compare this kid to Chris. I also understand that that is one of the causes that is making Chris even more anxious...)

But given Roselia's situation, I can't help but think about it.

I hope the mediocre-faced young man with a thin smile in front of me will be beside himself...

With one deep sigh, Elena drank up the cup in her hand.
