"Father-in-law, are you okay now?
Leila was coming to King Azpar's study.
"Um, no problem.
Hey, what's up? William... oh, you were at the tailors' today.
"Yes. I'm going to a meeting on the example trench coat thing.
"And it's rare for Leila to come alone.
... No way!
"No.
"... you're not... make a child of me quickly. It's just William's place.
I don't give a shit about gender, man or woman! Make a bang! If you feel like it, I'll admit my son-in-law's adoption as a trail!
"I have to give you kids first.
"Ha... I don't know what this is all about..."
King Azpar makes me seem lonely.
"So, father-in-law, I need to talk to you about something.
"Um, what?
"This is it.
Layla sends out one letter.
"Hmm... ho, I see.
King Azpar nods as he looks at the letter.
"Surely if a request for troop deployment is made as it stands, the cost will be noble.
Can't you twist the cost of an expedition to a laboratory with no income... Smith is decent.
We missed that point, too.
"Yes. Father-in-law.
I guess I was talking to Grandpa and I thought so, so I thought I'd tell Mr. Takeo via me... but this is usually thought of and tastes bad, right?
"Ah. Takeo would lightly say, 'We'll see what it costs'... but this is going to lead to the disgrace that the cost can't be constructed and you can't join the war.
Besides, money can't be constructed from the Wang capital or from the surrounding nobles, so... there is a risk that the institute will be isolated.
More importantly, there is a risk of a deficit if research goes well and many requests to join the war come from Wang Du as some income outlook has passed... a hand that anti-Kings from Wang Du are likely to use.
"Yes.
The Royal Institute is a peer organization of the King's Capital Guard and reports directly to the King, right?
"Uhm.
It's not good outwardly for the immediate agency to refuse the request to join the war... I guess that's because they can't afford to join the war either.
and the study door is knocked.
"I don't mind.
"Excuse me.
Guards come in.
"Speaker Clark is here.
"Right, let it pass.
"Ha!"
The guards go through Clark.
"Excuse me.
Oh, was His Highness Leila out?
Sire, do you want to change the time?
"No, I don't mind... Clark, you're here just in time.
I need to talk to you a little.
"Yes, I understand.
Clark brought a chair from the edge of the room where King Azpearl and Leila were.
"You did overlook it.
I will let this be discussed at tomorrow's meeting of nobles.
Clark nods.
"Um, you shouldn't be overburdened with the institute.
I would also like to prevent harassment of certain aristocratic opponents.
"I'm in awe.
Suppose the costs around there can be twisted out of the Wang capital, and we'll consider what kind of war costing we'll let them do.
If you want to move the laboratory platoon, I think you should have a one-off actuarial method.
"Right, that would be good too.
The expenses involved would be one platoon... no. Slow down would be two or three platoons.
It's not a very painful expense from the main aristocracy, but it's a huge expense from the lab.
"Yes. Then you've decided on the agenda for tomorrow's meeting of aristocrats.
And Smith from the Elvis family is good.
I look forward to the future when the adults think about what they missed properly.
"Well, it may happen this time... but I'm sure there are those who notice and those who don't.
It would be easier for the world to realize everything.
King Azpar sighs.
"I'm still young.
You must have thought it would be a fluke to see that circular.
He also seems to be studying properly in advance.
If His Highness Grace hadn't come in next year, Smith might have been the freshman delegate.
"Hmm... Acting Dean of the College, what's going on with the Royal College?
"... let's summon a new nobleman soon. I want to leave the Dean of the College to someone.
Well, put my thing aside... you don't have a lot of nobility next year.
His Royal Highness Grace and the Smith of the Elvis family... and then Baron Alderson's children are finalized.
I wonder if the rest depends on the family structure of the new nobility.
Surely the agenda for the meeting of nobles the day after tomorrow was the final consideration of the new nobility candidate.
"Um... right.
We have to decide as soon as possible.
"Yes.
I also have to think about allocating rooms as a college, so...
By the way... have you decided to treat His Highness Grace?
"No... you haven't heard.
"Attachment?"
Layla tilts her neck.
"Yes, Your Highness Leila.
One treat is allowed for the noble offspring.
"Does the noble... mean Smith?
"Yeah, it's been around for about 15 years, but I'm allowing it.
"... I have to tell Grandpa.
Layla squeaks.
"Surely His Highness Pat was the son of a soldier and His Highness Amy was a maid... other nobles are probably soldiers or maids, too.
"I wonder if there's someone at my parents'... um... if you know, we all talked about it when we left the other day..."
Layla starts to come up with ideas.
"Hmm, that's good too... because the Takeos will be back the day after tomorrow anyway.
You might want to ask Takeo and Alice.
"Well, if you two can make a good candidate.
"Well, you can still decide on a specific treat ahead.
I'd like you to ask me if I'm coming or not by the end of next month.
"Okay.
I wonder if we'll both be back soon.
Layla waited for Takeo and the others to return as she replied.
