"Alice, did you get the answer?"

I ask Alice over the cage.

Alice stared into my eyes and nodded greatly.

"Yes. I haven't decided yet to serve you ... but I want to be free."

Really.

First of all, did you decide to get up on your own feet?

"Then I have to cut the chains with my own hands."

"……Yes"

chain……

Aldo must be killed.

With Alice's own hands.

"Muzio. I'd like to thank you, do you have any hope?"

I went to Muzio and heard that.

Muzio says he just works, and says nothing is needed.

But then Japan remains helped.

The Equus tribe should have suffered little.

If we don't give anything, we will be ungrateful.

"It's really good. If you weren't there, I wouldn't have been a king ... Well, if it were to be strong, would it be an expansion of trade?"

"Trade ... OK, I see."

In Japan, demand for wool and horses is growing.

Expanding trade benefits both parties.

"I hope I can do this ..."

"Tell me what I can do."

"I see ... I want a slave."

slave?

Why do you want a slave?

The Equus industry is nomadic.

I think slaves are unnecessary ...

"Are Gauls good at wool? I think the main industry in the Roselle was wool, especially. If there were soldiers in the wool industry, give them over. Oh, pay me."

"Okay. I'll hand it over if I'm there. I don't need any extra money ..."

"He is a guy."

Well, if you refuse so stubbornly, you don't have to.

I don't mean to lose money.

But woolen ...

Certainly, it is more profitable to sell wool after processing it into fiber and processing it than selling wool directly.

It is better to develop a good industry than to start agriculture poorly.

"And one more thing"

"What?"

Muzio says with a serious face.

"Do you know the Lupus and the Arièse? I'm going to settle with them in the near future. I don't have the power right now, so I'll just fight off ... but in the not-too-distant future, I'll definitely give you guidance. Please cooperate "

"I see. Until then, let's strengthen our cavalry. We can't rely on you. We ask you to export horses."

"Okay, export ironware from there."

Me and Mzio shook hands tightly.

...... I was thinking about being told about stirrups.

Well, why not ask me?

Stirrups have become quite visible in this war.

Perhaps ten years later, all cavalry on the Adernia Peninsula would use stirrups.

Technology is such a thing, so it can't be helped.

After a meeting with Mzio, Iar was there when he returned to the camp.

He has finally returned from King Faldham's land.

"Ial! He did it well."

I praised Iar.

Iar has three achievements.

Invite the king of Zoldias to the king of Evil.

Have King Faldham declare war on the Kingdom of Roselle.

Have King Gilbed declare war on the Kingdom of Roselle.

Without Iar, this siege would not have been able to survive.

"Your achievements are first-class. You will always be rewarded with the Contribution Award."

"That's it !!!! Thank you. Is that okay? I didn't defeat the enemy general ..."

"It's good. War isn't just about killing anything."

Some battles do not use weapons.

Rather, such a battle is more important.

They are justice and the enemy is evil.

That's important.

"Yes ... actually, I'm going to talk to Prince Carlo, Prince Aldo, and the POWs. Come with me."

"I see. I'll show you the king's expectations."

"Prince Carlo, how are you doing?"

"Isn't that bad ... Well, I'm feeling down when I think about how the country will be rebuilt in the future.

Carlo smiled with a bitter smile.

In the future, rebuilding a ragged territory will require considerable effort.

Honest and a little pity.

After all, war should not be brought into the country.

Invasion and civil war must be prevented beforehand.

"When will the throne be realized?"

"Well ... I think it would be better a month or two later. Stabilizing the country first is the top priority."

After that, discuss the specific schedule for the throne.

That's not a decision ... but it's better to have a good prospect.

At the end, the coronal topics, such as small talk, are over, and we are finally in the main task.

"I'm Prince Aldo ... Could you lend me here?"

"... Prince Aldo?-Why is that?"

To make Alice kill him.

First, Alice must be released from the spell of Aldo.

If you kill Aldo with your own hands, you should be able to realize that there is nothing to bind yourself.

"Ummm ... why for such a slave woman ... oh, I see!"

Carlo smiled a mysterious face, but expressed a self-assured self-solved thing.

She smiles with grin.

"I see-it's not unfortunate to cooperate in that case ... just because the public execution is a recreation of the public. Many people want the public execution of Aldo.

A public execution is like a festival.

In France, Parisians gather in a square to see people being executed by guillotines, and all rooms in the surrounding buildings have been reserved.

And approvals stand out to provide food and entertainment to the gathered people, turning them into festivals.

In that case, the execution is not interested, but the people who want to make a noise at the festival gather together ...

It becomes a big event like that.

It's the same on the Adernia Peninsula.

Moreover, this death row, Aldo, is a royal family and a war criminal who brought the Kingdom of Roselle into the country.

The public will want to see the open executions.

"So how about this?"

Listening to my suggestions, Carlo's expression smiles.

"That's a good idea. It'll be profitable. Let's do it, King Rossais."

Good.

Alice's case has been managed.

Next is POW's share.

I can negotiate but ... Ial is better.

Leave it to Iar.

Carlo also seems to leave the negotiations to his subordinates, and the civilian who was on the side advanced one step further.

The secretary and Iar begin to argue.

I and Carlo look at it.

Good luck, Ial! !

......

......

......

The clerk's complexion gets worse.

The color changes from anger red to blue like a traffic light.

...... This is not good.

"Isn't it okay for Japan to make 90% of the share and for King Domorgar to make 10%?"

"No, not good"

I lowered Iar.

An unfamiliar civilian has a confused expression.

"It is true that in this war, the role of our country was very large. It is true that most of the results of the war were due to our soldiers and generals. But it was Prince Carlo that we could fight in a foreign country where our soldiers are not used to Thanks to the people of this country who provided me with a comfortable place to sleep. Their work is so great ... I think seven to three is a good proportion. "

Our country is seven, and the kingdom of Domorgar is three.

The secretary and Carlo have a surprising expression.

The slaves who could get 90% were reduced to 70% by themselves.

"Is it okay? King Rosais. I have a penalty for your country. Your country has not gained its territory from the Kingdom of Rosel. I'm convinced that I want all the prisoners, but ... "

I shook my head greatly.

"It's fine. I didn't save you for profit. I started a war to fulfill righteousness. As a result, I fought against the Kingdom of Roselle and other neighboring nations, and suffered a lot of sacrifice. But ... righteousness was fulfilled. It is enough. "

In my words, Carlo moistened his eyes as if impressed.

Hold my hand firmly.

"King Rossais ... how good are you. A man like you would be called a true king."

"I'm over buying."

I smiled with a shy smile.

…… I can't say that I got a ransom of 1,000 Taranto from Roselle, even if my mouth was torn.

"But this doesn't help me ... just for the sake of convenience. Are there any POWs you want to give priority to?"

"Yes ... I want someone with blacksmithing technology and one with woolen technology."

When I say that, Carlo looks to the civilian.

Apparently it seems convenient.

I got it.

"That ... King Almus, why 70%?"

"It's a simple story. You win too much."

Diplomacy is not something you just have to tear off from your partner.

Especially if a friendly country is the partner.

Even if you make a profit, if your relationship with a friendly nation is poor, you have no money.

"But did you say Prince Carlo was good?"

"Even if Prince Carlo is convinced that it's good, it doesn't necessarily mean that the royal family and the people are convinced. Some people may not even want to pay a little land to our country."

The country is not run alone.

It doesn't make sense for the tops to be friends.

"I see ... I don't mean we just need to defeat the other person, right?"

"That's how it is"
