587 Leon's idea

"International Law. I heard Charlotte and the others did have something like that, but does it make sense? You're not protecting anyone, are you?

"Well, maybe so, Kyle. In fact, I think it could be famous and innocent."

"Then why did you propose to make such a thing?

"It's just one of the ingredients for convincing the Linzats. But it's hard to fight each other forever. I really want to make country-by-country decisions to reduce the number of conflicts."

Joseph returned to King's Landing.

After I drop it off, I'll explain the story to Kyle in the city of Rishal.

After all, the expected answer came back.

I was asked what international law meant.

I think this is worth trying, but I also think it may not make much sense in the end.

It may be natural to break international law and open the battlefield, or vice versa to carry out an ambush.

Still, it would be better if there were rules.

Because I think this might also be useful, for example, for post-war processing.

If there is a fight and you can do whatever you like to win, it can be quite radical.

In fact, in King's Landing, various problems arose when the Menmen occupied it.

In order to prevent that, it would be better to provide for the treatment of occupied territories, the issue of compensation after the war, or the treatment of prisoners.

In that sense, the aristocracy of the King's Land, who has experienced the fear of outlaws with himself, may approve the enactment of this international law.

And I think the Rhinesatz family will appear in the discussion room at least when international law is enacted.

This is a prospect because it has been a lot of trouble so far.

If House Rheinzats were to become royal and be recognized as at least equal to Royal Doren and Royal Fontana, I think they would come on board without the will to abide by international law.

It will suffice to show that House Rheinzats are willing to join the discussion in that way.

That leads us to at least agree to a settlement.

But if you really want to create international law, you should call for other participants.

For example, the Doren royal family still does not recognize it, but the Rizoltes also name the royal family and create the Rizolte kingdom.

Besides, the Menmen who still maintain power in their own territory are still alive, albeit decaying.

We'll have to figure out what to do about it.

"Or do you agree with that as a Fontana kingdom? Isn't it subtle that Fontana could benefit?

"Hmm, I don't know. I'll talk to Leon. The rest will be considered by the council."

Recognize the House of Reinzatz as a royal family and create a common law that can be used in all countries.

Kyle would like to tell you how much this means to Fontana.

I'm sure it is.

If Fontana wants to stretch her forces out, she'll only be in the way to brake the momentum.

However, it is still a time for Fontana to build up her local power.

For example, if we can make international law and buy some time even in a few years, will Leon agree with us?

So I decided to go back to Fontana and talk to her.

"International law? That's fine. Shall I propose to the Council?

"Is that it? Would you agree with me so easily? I knew it would be a little more opposite, Leon."

"You won't have to object in particular. And perhaps international law will not be respected."

"Hmm? What do you mean? I don't know if you're willing to help create a law that's not going to be respected."

"Using the international law and the rules made in the East as a platform, we will create a common law here. Perhaps it will take some time to enact. Match each other's opinions to find a match and put it together as a law. But no matter how hard you struggle to make good international law, there are countries that break it easily. But on the contrary, it can be a cause."

"I see. You can justify attacking the country because you broke international law."

"Exactly. It is okay as long as international law is in place and peace prevails. If you can buy time even temporarily, that would be fine. The Kingdom of Fontana is a good time to grow its national strength. And then, if a country emerges that acts against the law, it moves for that reason. We believe that international law has more advantages than making it difficult to move. It depends on the law."

"Well, can you please keep an eye out for anyone from Leon to attend the conference to enact international law? Probably streamlined, the Rheinzats will acknowledge the reconciliation of King Doren and the Fontana kingdom, followed by the funeral of their predecessor, King Doren. Then I think it's going to be a meeting of heads of state."

"I see. Then I'll leave you to the council. Shall we talk to Pope Paul? If we're going to make international law, then the Church will need to be part of that law."

"Of course I am. They also declared that the Church would withdraw from the land if they broke the injunction, and they said they needed certain standards for that."

Return to Fontana and speak to Leon.

But you agreed more easily than I thought.

Apparently, Leon decided that the Fontana side would benefit greatly from talking to either side.

I suppose so.

For now, there is no reason enough for Fontana to break the law.

Rather, the more time we have, the more national power we can enrich.

I wonder if it would be better to act after that.

And through Rion, I decided to tell the Church and the Kingdom of Resolute about the creation of international law.

How long will the Conference on the Enactment of International Law be able to take place this year?

When I was preparing for that while thinking about it, an emergency alert arrived.
