2303 Chapter 2287 I received an order. (Well... how does it work?)

"This is a declaration of war from the Demon Kingdom."

When Olcott says that and folds the letter, he gives it to King Azpar.

Hmmm.

Well, as far as our response is concerned... I do not intend to change the current border line.

Therefore, I think I will bounce off the Demon Kingdom's request for the return of the territory.

And those who disagree shall come forward and speak.

And king Azpar will say unto them all:

... I don't know.

Then, if there is one, I will issue a written order to the Temple, Godwin, and Elvis families to launch a defensive dispatch against the declaration of war from the Demon Kingdom.

I ordered Count Godwin to command the perimeter.

Anyone have any objections? "

King Azpar stops speaking there and sees everyone.

... I see.

So, if there is one, the director of the second laboratory of the National Laboratory, Kitamizato, go forward. "

It is said by King Azpar.

Hah!

Takeo goes to the king of Azpar, raises his hand to salute, and the king of Azpar stops nodding.

"Hmm, that was a salute from the Second Research Institute. Let's admit that we will continue to do that in the future."

... Orders! To accompany their men and give appropriate advice and action to the lords for the defense of the three counts facing the demon kingdom. "

"Hah!

In order to safeguard the peace and independence of our country, we will recruit the appropriate personnel to help the national defense and implement appropriate actions. "

Takeo says.

"Umu, please do your best."

Here's the order. ”

When King Azpar nodded, the butler came to Takeo with a basin in which the letter was placed.

"I'll take it."

Takeo received it and, with a light thank-you gesture, lifted the letter to the position of his head and then held it in his left hand and lowered his hand.

When the butler returned to the original position, he raised his hand to salute, and when King Azpar nodded, he stopped saluting and returned to the position where he was.

... that's it.

Those who have an opinion on this matter should come forward.

If not, it is prohibited to raise objections in this matter in the future.

Everyone's fine! "

Hah!

"We have received reports, but this war may not be the same as usual."

Departments and roles may be different, but let's work together.

Everyone, don't fail to prepare! "

»» »Loyalty to King Azpar! Prosper to the kingdom of Azpar!" "

and chant in harmony.

“Your Majesty and His Royal Highness, William, are leaving.”

The butler at the door shouted out loud.

Everyone pays the highest tribute.

"Hmm, William, let's go."

Yes.

King Azpar and William left the Great Hall.

I can see that the air in the parking lot is soothing.

Takeo came to Arkin and the others.

Thank you for your hard work, Director.

Brooke says.

"I'm really tired.

Now, we have an official written order. "

Show the letter that Takeo received.

"It's time to get to work."

That's right.

Takeo nods.

Takeo-sama.

Smith is coming.

Yeah, Smith, you've done well, too.

Takeshi slaps Smith on the shoulder.

"It's war, isn't it?"

"Yeah, that's right.

... let's change the location.

You'd better talk in our room. ”

Yes.

The butler waited for Takeo and the others as they left the Great Hall.

Lord Kitamizato, Lord Elvis.

His Majesty asked me to come to the office.

and the people who accompany them. ”

I was going to leave a message.

------------------------

Corner of the Great Hall.

New aristocrats, mainly Chancellor Clark, are watching Takeo and the others leave.

"Hmmm... Lord Kitamizato is calm."

Senator Clarke says as he puts his hand on his chin.

"Well, you're a rookie."

"If you don't do this, you will be suspected of your character as an aristocrat."

"Anyway, it's a conventional war."

"Well, that's funny, even if you're fascinated."

"Haha, that must be true."

"You have to do a good job."

Existing aristocrats slapped their hands lightly.

"... as long as it's the usual war..."

Senator Clark murmured at a volume that no one could hear.

On the other hand.

“Director of Foreign Affairs, what do you think?”

"I think you're here."

What about the Director of Military Affairs? "

"At this time of year..."

In addition, in the past, the customary war on the demon kingdom's side began in September or October.

I'm a little concerned about a month's advance.

The war started on August 15th... It's certainly when the wheat harvesting is over, but I don't think the Demon Kingdom can afford to go to war over storage, aggregation, and taxes.

What is the opinion of the Director of Finance? "

"The war itself has nothing... but it's time to check and process tax revenues and war expenditures at the same time, so if you're in provincial territory, you're angry.

The finance bureau of the three counts on the Demon Kingdom side is not unaware.

I will delay the submission of my tax returns a little this year.

What about the Bureau of Economics? "

"That's right... if it's a war, the store will be opened in Kansai, Count Godwin's side."

I believe there is a request, so I will notify each union to prioritize the production of weapons, groceries, and daily necessities for sale on the battlefield.

What about the Director of the Monopoly Bureau? "

"For things that are in demand in times of war, such as salt, paper, pipe leaves, and iron, we will release them from the royal capital's stockpile.

Overall, I will instruct you to increase production.

I will make sure there is no problem with domestic distribution, but you will have to accept that the price of iron will increase slightly.

So... Director General, I'm a little pale, but what's the matter? "

"Huh... Her Royal Highness is going to the count of Elvis for training in August, and the paperwork has been submitted to him and he's allowed to serve as his general superintendent.

In addition, it is circulated as a top priority everywhere concerned.

It's almost time for the whole game to finish... "

"" "Uh..." "

The directors had pity on the director general.
