Lesson 12: Sum
June.
A pact of conciliation was finally concluded between the Lemurian Empire and the Kingdom of Cerda.
· The Kingdom of Cerda assigns the Teriportania region to the Lemurian Empire.
· The Kingdom of Cerda pays compensation to the Lemurian Empire, of which half in bulk and the other half in five-year installments.
-Five years, provide for mutual inviolability.
-The reciprocal inviolability renewal takes place a year ago, on a triennial basis.
That's it.
That's how Sonia managed to get back to Cerda City.
"Were you okay, Sonia! Didn't they do something?
Hilderick II welcomed Sonia off the deck.
And asks worryingly.
"... Yes. It's okay, Your Majesty."
Sonia replied.
And behind Hilderick II, he bowed his head to his father, who stood with an awkward look on his face.
"I worried about you....... Carmine (...) General"
……
Carmine had a sad look on her face, but Sonia didn't bother.
Even then, from the deck came down the high-ranking generals and bureaucrats who had been captured by the Lemurian Empire to reunite with their families.
Then, after a few days of rest, a previous meeting was held, including Sonia, including those who had been captured.
It is the first meeting since the Treaty of Reconciliation was formally concluded and fulfilled.
The agenda is a decision on a policy to rebuild a country exhausted by war.
At present, the Kingdom of Cerda was presented with two options.
One, put the power of the country on economic reconstruction and rebuild the country with a military force that will at least not be invaded by the Lemurian Empire.
Two, pour the national power into the military force and aim for the recapture of the Teriportanian region.
It is led by Carmine, a rebuilder, who supports the former...
It was the main warriors led by Joamel who supported the latter.
For Joamel, the Teriportania region is an important support base.
We have to get this back.
Regardless, the meeting broke in two.
Currently, Joamel was losing momentum by losing his support base...
He was up against Carmine by involving the neutrals who wanted to restore the land.
And Hilderick II could not put an end to this dispute between the two.
"Sonia, what do you think...
When the meeting came to an end.
Hilderick II anticipated the time and asked Sonia, who had remained silent until now.
Sonia gave a look like she was lost for a moment...
Exhale and then mouth your thoughts.
"... the Teriportanian region will not return. So there's one option."
For a moment in Sonia's words, the twirl rose.
Because Hilderick II, Carmine, Joamel, and others thought Sonia would insist on restoring the land.
"The Teriportania region won't return, what does that mean? Sonia. That's what you mean when you can't beat the Lemurian Empire in war?
"... there is also that. But the people don't want it in the first place."
Nobody knew what Sonia was talking about.
Those who live in the Teriportanian region are originally subjects of the Kingdom of Cerda.
Don't you want that to return to the kingdom of Cerda?
That can't be right.
"... what do you mean, Lord Sonia"
Joamel asked.
If we tried to make the Teriportanian region Joamel the basis of support, Sonia's words would not have been overheard.
"It means as it is. In five years, the people of the Teriportanian region will choose Lemuria and Cerda."
"... is that about a human race (human)?
Joamel asks.
The Teriportanian region has a large ethnic (human) population.
For the people (human beings), if the kingdom of Cerda and the Lemurian Empire… the latter is a better place to live is a nod.
"Indeed, the people (human beings) may be overwhelmed by Lemuria. But… until now, we have adopted a policy of reconciliation so that there is no more disparity between the Beasts (Warbeasts) and the Humans (Humans). In fact, people like me (human beings) are here. Different?
"I won't deny that. But..."
Sonia narrowed her eyes.
"Is that as good as Remlia?
"What is that..."
"Lemuria is… half of the bureaucracy is occupied by people (human beings). Senate seats are also occupied by a large number of noblemen (human). Yes, there are human aristocrats. Is there a human aristocrat in this country? What is the ratio of people (human) among officials in this country?
"Oh, that's..."
In the way of cohesion policy, there is no way we can beat Lemuria, who has been working on it for hundreds of years.
Fight on the same mound and you will surely be defeated.
"... but there will be the Beasts. No, Sonia."
It was Carmine who said so.
Carmine leads the Reconstructionists... but the Reconstructionists are never trying to give up the Teriportanian region altogether.
It is our intention to restore the country and then regain the Teriportanian region.
In other words, the final goal is the same as that of the main warriors.
But...... it sounds like Sonia is telling us to give up the Teriportanian region itself in the first place.
This should not be abandoned as Carmine.
"Right. The Beasts, Lemuria and Cerda, will choose Cerda one way or another."
"... it's as if some people choose Lemuria"
"Though I believe there are a small number"
Sonia said it like she threw it away.
Everyone frowns.
Regardless of the human race, it is impossible for the people of the Beast tribe (Warbeast) to leave their hearts.
That is the general thrust of those who are here.
"Emperor Lemuria asked the Beasts (Warbeasts) to submit instead of guaranteeing land and property. And as it stands, whoever chooses to obey has the protection of Lemuria, and whoever refuses has been killed. By five years from now, I hope you're surviving. Those who swear allegiance to the kingdom of Cerda."
"Sonia, that's only temporary, isn't it? I don't think I'm subordinating to Emperor Lemuria from the bottom of my heart. If we go back... they'll welcome us"
Hilderick II told me to tell myself.
"Isn't the kingdom of Cerda easier to spend for the Beasts (Warbeast) in the first place than Lemuria?
The status quo is right, Your Majesty.
What is the current situation?
to that word...... some tension runs in the air.
Little by little, I'm beginning to wonder what Sonia's trying to say.
"But from now on, the kingdom of Cerda will be more and more difficult for the Beasts (Warbeast) to live in. Rights are equated with human beings, and wealth redistribution takes place."
The air freezes.
"Those who have subordinated to Emperor Lemuria are not subordinated from the bottom of their hearts to Emperor Lemuria. But I don't have a strong loyalty to the Kingdom of Cerda again. In five years' time, that will fade even further. If you flip an anti-flag and end up treating it the same… you can do better to be strong."
"Sonia! Have you been bonded by Emperor Lemuria!!
Carmine yelled.
Sonia also says she's a loser.
"Until you're telling me the facts, give me the facts! You know what? In Lemuria, even if a soldier dies, his family is paid a pension. Every year, enough money to live, is. How is our country? If a soldier dies, you don't even pay the ransom. Who will risk their lives for a country that will not even pay the ransom for its soldiers?
Sin, and quiet back.
Sonia sat quietly.
Nobody opens their mouths.
After a period of silence, Hilderick II said in a faint voice.
"Sonia, are you saying... that all the rest of the policy was a mistake in the first place?
In contrast, Sonia answered coldly.
"I have been saying that since His Majesty took office. Were you misremembered?
"Get out!!
Hilderick II yelled.
Sonia exhales, and rises.
"If your majesty feels comfortable with it, let's leave."
That being said, Sonia stood up by herself and stepped out of the chamber and said:
And... in the chilled air, Hilderick II said.
"The policy is set"
Carmine and Joamel opened their eyes.
Because Hilderick II rarely makes his own decisions.
"If in five years' time the popular hearts are already apart… the Teriportanian region cannot be recovered, whether it be the Carmine proposal or the Joamel proposal"
Everyone took a breath.
That is… nothing more than Hilderick II's decision to abandon the Teriportanian region.
I'm not "putting it behind me", like the Reconstructionists.
He gave up taking back the Teriportanian region entirely.
………………
…………
……
And for a moment then, everyone thought.
"Discard the pact, etc."
"... Yes?
"To, Your Majesty?
Carmine and Joamel stretched their faces.
"The Treaty of Reconciliation is a destruction! Right now, we just need to go to war... and get it back! Different!!
Hilderick II's words echoed.
"… the rest of the policy was not, for example, an error. This choice, which took the throne from my father, was right. Prove it! Objections are unacceptable!!
Then, by the desperate persuasion of Carmine and Joamel...
It was not now, but three years later, to destroy and attack the Treaty of Reconciliation.
