Back in the room, when we are alone, Mil apologizes to me.

“Al, I’m sorry …… In the end, we made you make the final decision.”

“No, that’s enough for now. You don’t have to apologize, you did a great job. Thank you.”

“Al ……”

She looks a little woozy.

Was that too much? I’m starting to feel embarrassed saying that.

“Let’s see, let’s say Mil and I have a baby.”

Mil blushed and stiffened.

“A c-child?”

“The child tries to stand up. Would you do anything about it?”

Mil faltered, as if imagining the future.

“N-No. I’ll watch over him.”

She’s still too cute.

“The same goes for that. If you don’t do anything at all, you might think that …… you’ve been abandoned.

“So you’re saying you’ll watch over him, sometimes helping him, until he gradually gets up?”

“Yeah.”

“You’ll be a good dad.”

“I don’t know. I’ll try to be like it, though. You never know what kind of personality a child will develop.”

“Me and Al’s baby. There’s no way …… that he would suddenly start talking and arguing with Al …… right?”

“What you think am I, Mil ……”

“Hmmm, Al people?”

(T/N: Al people is Arujin. Just like Tiger people(Torajin), dog people(Inujin), and cat people(Nekojin).)

Hey …… I’m even becoming a tribe.

Mil smiled wickedly.

“I’m kidding.”

That doesn’t sound like a joke.

“So …… can you tell me why you’re sending gifts to cat people?”

I mimicked Kiara and improved my upward looking asking skills…

I gave her the correct answer, but broke it up by telling everyone to think about the reason.

“It’s hard to say no to a request from my wife.”

I couldn’t help but say it.

“You know it works best.”

“Yeah.”

“This whole thing started because the tiger people was inspired by the cat people and the wolf people were persecuted.”

“Right.”

“Based on that, do you think that giving the tiger people that gift will change anything?”

Mil thinks for a moment.

“Maybe we should just bury them and be done with it ……”

“Yes, or they’ll just think of it as a surrender gift. Based on their customs.”

“Doesn’t it work?”

“More than a gift for Mr. Cat.”

“What about the dog people?”

“We send it to the tiger people and that’s it.”

Mil seemed to be having trouble grasping why he was right.

“What about the cat people?”

“The cat people control the tiger people, maybe that’s what no one knows. But it’s a known fact that tiger people are followed by the cat people.”

“Still, it’s not the end of the road?”

I smile wickedly.

“Then we send the same letter to those who we sent gifts and those we didn’t.”

“What kind of letter?”

“I’ll tell them exactly the truth what the cat people have planned. In addition, I’ll make it that if they join us, we will pretend that the past conflict never happened. If they join us, they will be welcomed as a citizen. I will also add that the head of the tiger leader has been given to the mastermind behind it, the cat people.”

Mil still looked uncomfortable.

“How will the gift affect them?”

“Sending it around to the tiger people won’t help us get along. They will just curse us when they see us. If we leave it behind secretly, they will hate us as a coward. But even if the cat people keep it, they can’t get rid of it and some of the tiger people will resent them. Even within the cat people, it could start disputes. In the end, the cat people will be afraid that the tiger people and the dog people will work together to attack them.”

Mil murmured in a tone of disgust.

“That’s very elaborate…”

I gave a wicked smile.

“As a result, the three races will never join forces to fight against us. They’ll think that the tiger people were incited by the cat people. Then, they’ll have their hands full with their own survival. The dog people will think they got involved. The cat people will think it was one traitor and the tiger people who inspired them. Even within the group, it will be difficult to reach a consensus. And then they’ll start thinking about whether they should be the first to surrender and try to get the upper hand.”

My laugh gets more and more villainous.

“It would be awful if the others surrendered and attacked us jointly. I mean, they can’t survive on our own. But two races together is not enough. They’ve lost a lot of tiger people, which is the key. Three races together is impossible due to distrust. Furthermore, they’ll fight If we want to kill or enslave them, but we’ll welcome them as citizens. Then, that’ll make them doesn’t want to fight desperately.”

""

It’s like a light bulb appeared in Mil’s head.

“Ohhh! That’s why you bothered to mention the do-nothing option!”

“That’s right, madam.”

“It’s amazing what Al people can do. ……”

No, as I said, I’m not a tribe.
