62 Chapter 49: Consideration

The conference room provided in the city hall was considerably simpler for the leaders of both countries to gather.

In addition to being a peripheral city that is not a capital in the first place, the current situation is understaffed.

As is customary in other countries, there was no place in Foncaven, such as the space to create a luxurious and dedicated conference hall that combines commemoration and job creation, and there were circumstances on the Minogula side that I wanted to do it quickly enough to take time for such extensive hospitality.

So this is the venue.

Everything is an unusual meeting.

Nothing goes beyond the fact that the great towns of the country are gathered in this shameful, old, cramped conference room.

"Long time no see, Tact! Raise the dragon tongue, so do something else!

I understood it well from the very words of the opening.

Pepe, the leader of Von Caven, said the transfer of the Dragon Tan.

It is normal for tact not to consider the ordinary way, but if you can hit the opening that is so far out of common sense, the tact of the boulder is likely to enter unexpectedly.

Of course, his runaway was quite different from his plan.

Tonukapori is holding her head with a twinkling gaze, and Antherise is gently opening her mouth and blinking her eyes.

On the other side of the crew - Old Mortar is also playing with his beard mixed with cold sweat, and he drops the pen in his hand as far as Em.

The pre-emptive attack that started without confirming the attendees was also a bit dazed by the tact of the servant.

"Long time no see, Pepe. Hmm, even if I say I'll raise it. I don't know what to do."

Nevertheless, the meeting has already begun.

Well, we have to buy some time.

Tact took a slightly overwhelming attitude.

Pepe's naivetness and ruin were his favorites, but it was a bit odd for the other party to take the initiative on this occasion.

Regardless of the content, it is a predetermined route, and this is a negotiating forum between the country and the country.

Especially unlike the last meeting, which took place after an accidental encounter.

In order to clarify the power relations between each other in the future, I would like to avoid only very pathetic results.

While thinking, check the surroundings.

The chief attendant of Von Caven was Pepe, who had a staff, and Tonukapori, who also had a staff. And Antherise, the mayor of the city.

Others have some escort soldiers and a few civilians who arrange secretaries and materials.

Tact is careful not to look at Antherise's chest as much as possible, while focusing on the members we have prepared.

First of all, Old Mortar plays an auxiliary role in conducting talks. As a record clerk, Em.

Attu and Gear are also present, but they are either asked to serve as escorts.

Immediately adjacent to the room are the witch Elfur sisters, Dark Elf soldiers, and Braineater, a unique unit of Minogula.

It is an alliance that is largely unconscious and has a good relationship with an excessive amount of power.

(Well, I had most of my powers in the first place, so I couldn't help it.)

The danger is the dispersion of forces and the destruction of each. That's why I brought them all.

The distance between Minogula's city and the Dragon Tan is relatively close, and even if hostile forces invade again, it can be almost reversed, but this is some of the forceful measures that have been decided.

Anyway, this is all the members of the meeting. The number of people actually attending is very small.

However, the decision-making power is paramount, and it is certain that the talks will go deeper with all the important personnel on the tact side.

Even if I didn't want to neglect Japan very much, I was going to decide everything this time.

Now, what should we do about our turn...

"Ho ho. You certainly worry, King. Our country is still growing. As a result of our dark elf's misery, there are only a few things we can do to make it a reality with a pathetic face facing the king."

In a dozen seconds after Tact gained time, Old Mortar joined the fight.

He is not just a wise man called the wise man by Date. As soon as I realized that the control of the talks was about to shift to Foncaven, I began to frustrate the venue.

The transfer of dragon tans has already been mentioned as a rule.

What's happening right now is, in exchange for that, what can Minogula do and what will Minogula do? with respect to

Von Caven is trying to get the most out of his belly, and Minogula is trying to get the most out of his wallet string, and behind his words, he's doing a rough but sharp search.

Of course, most people are unable to keep up with the sense of speed.

It's about confirming the other person's intentions and intentions. On the contrary, it would be a place to slowly warm up the air in the field with topics related to the upcoming battle.

Why do you have to do something so troublesome?

Oddly enough, the representatives of both countries had exactly the same idea about the matter.

"Again! Tact gave me so much food. [M] Isn't there a lot of good stuff you haven't shown us? And you brought some big cars, didn't you? I want you to show me what's inside!

"It's not such a big deal. Maybe you'll need it? That's about it."

"I'm sure it's amazing. Looking forward to it! Exciting!"

Eye catching. Very catchy.

It is true that it was prominent, but there is something that is a little difficult to return when it is released at this time. Of course, I'm not going to be honest with you.

"Ho ho ho. I wish Pepe liked it... Speaking of which, Tonukapori. I heard that there are other people in your country with staff besides you. What did you say about this proposal?

"Nh? Nh... well, I was told a lot, but I was convinced. That's what this idiot said, but I can't give you that much credit for your future relationship with your country and the war ahead. Well, I can't shake my neck vertically just because of the dragon pulse hole."

"Indeed, the dragon pulse hole is better managed jointly than we talked about before. That's what the King wants. But I think it's a little too rigid to transfer the city. I was really surprised when I first heard about it."

"... well, it's just the end of my mind. I hope you understand how important our country is to Minogula."

"However, Tonukapori. Even if you gave me this city, I wonder if it has any advantages for my country...."

"Hey, Mortar. Don't say that. Dragon Tan is a lovely city."

"Oops, my king! I'm sorry! What a rude thing to think about the interests of Minogula, and hence the King. Ladies and gentlemen of Von Caven, please forgive me for laughing at the old man's jokes."

We refined the topic and moved on to the value of the Dragon Tan.

There was a more compelling part, but it would be a problem to ask too much for character at the meeting in the first place.

The important thing is to come up with a beneficial agreement, which would be more beneficial to Minogula. Every means is acceptable to do so.

"I'm sorry, Pepe."

"Don't worry about that, Tact. Sure enough, the Dragon Tang is a city of nothing! Wahahaha!

"Hah... at this very moment. As always, you talk without thinking about anything... Well, everyone in Minogula, and King Ira-Tact. As already sent in a letter the other day, and as we have just spoken on this occasion, our country, Von Caven, is considering transferring the city of Dragon Tan to your country, Minogula. In exchange, I would like to seek technical assistance, such as war arguments and weapons, that your country possesses or is equivalent to. This is what my country proposes."

"What are the benefits of getting dragon tongues?

Kh!

Negotiations between nations are bloodless wars.

And there is no sweetness whatsoever, and the theory of weak eating passes.

Tact did not condone the opponent in that regard. Earlier, he poked his own words of caution at the old man of Mortar without fear.

As far as allies are concerned, it is his creed to narrow them down as much as possible. In this case, it is not this side but the other side that is silent.

However, the allies were only going to identify the line so that lumps would not remain.

…………

Tonukapori is silent.

As a von Caven, it was a disadvantage.

Looking at the dragon pulse hole, its value as a city of dragon tongues is infinitely low. The city is half-collapsed, but we need to get it back up and running.

Plus, the other side... I mean, I haven't checked Minogula's card yet.

In a situation where the opponent's hand is unknown and the value of this card is being compromised unilaterally, you will have to be convinced of your defeat in a few minutes.

But this country has him.

There is a boy who does things unexpectedly and unexpectedly, but never despises him.

Pepe, who was obviously bored looking out the window earlier, suddenly jumped into the conversation as if he remembered.

"There are benefits. The Dragon Tang has so many wonderful people! Yes, there are a lot of Sawayama!

That's a sharp point. Tact had an expression of admiration in his heart.

Pepe must have a good understanding of Minogula's affair.

Minogula is overwhelmingly missing, it's people.

City buildings can only be built with magic. You can make as many gold coins as you want from the monsters of Brave Questas by magic.

There are also systems and security in the collapsed cities, as well as Braineater, a unit capable of improving the security of the cities.

Except for the population.

It is difficult to prepare for this by any means, and the increase will take a great deal of time.

There are limits to how many Minogula endemic species, Ningenmodoki, are highly breeding.

It takes at least a few decades to create the next generation, and in view of the current situation in which Minogula has been placed, it will be incredible.

Minogula doesn't have time.

More than a clear threat to the world, the strengthening of national power is urgent, and it can be said that Minogula is the only weakness that is caught in the crossroads.

What Minogula originally wanted from some country, that was man.

"People, huh. Hmm, I don't know."

"It's just amazing people. Everyone in Minogula will love it! Tact should be busy too, right?

Do you do it naturally or with your heart?

Either way, Tact's eyes show that this friend Pepe's boy is a negotiator that can never be neglected.

Tact finally leans forward to avoid being noticed in action.

To meet that attitude, Pepe brightens his eyes and deepens his smile.

"Our country is not strong enough. Tact's country is short of citizens. Then let's trade in what's missing from each other! I'm sure we'll make a better country."

It is a fact.

It's a fact of life.

It is very attractive to have more people as tacts.

In addition, if you can convert the mana of the dragon pulse hole in the dragon tan into the attributes of the earth, you can use various land fertilization tactics and magic.

It is a very effective means in this barren land, and the speed of urban development will increase at once.

More research is needed to unlock the various technologies ahead and build up your capabilities.

No matter how many Dark Elves have dawned on their quest with their dedication, they cannot resist countless acts of violence.

The number of citizens is directly linked to that, that is, the power of the nation.

It would also greatly benefit Von Caven.

All the bottlenecks of a nation called Von Caven are concentrated in its power.

This southern continent of barbarians - commonly known as the Dark Continent - has no decisive power, they cannot secure security, and therefore cannot expand satisfactorily.

As a result, agricultural land has been opened, and the nature of the land combined with crop yields cannot be obtained.

Lack of food and reliance on imports from the rest of the world leak money and exhaust the country.

The study revealed that the country as a whole is suffering from chronic poverty.

The situation turns upside down all at once with the help of Minogula.

It is unclear to what extent they are focused, but the prospect will be achieved, of course, if Tact and the others are armed.

Settle the surrounding area with renewed overwhelming military power and open the land in safe conditions.

Plus, with the mana of the earth that Minogula co-manages, their potential is stretched to the maximum.

It's not as fertile as Ningenmodoki, but I hear that veterinarians are also prolific and reproducible.

In the long run, there was no reason why the country would not prosper.

An agreement that would be too advantageous for both parties if concluded.

When noticed, Tact throws some more intrusive questions as if he was running on the rail he was laying.

"What do you think about dragon pulse holes?

"You mean a little control? You can decide later, on terms that feel good under our friendship!

"Pepe. The people have pride and will to be respected. Shouldn't we all run away?

"It's because you're alive, both proud and willing. And not everyone has the strength and courage of a soldier."

"When I become a citizen, I become evil. I think the decision was a very strong and courageous one."

Er, is that so? Minogula is a very good country. Rice is delicious, and there are a lot of amazing things. Plus, everyone in the Dark Elves looks so happy! That's right, Mr. Mortar!

Old Mortar opened his eyes with a sudden throw.

Then when I learned that everyone's eyes were facing me, I opened my mouth with a bitter expression.

"Nuu... of course. We, the Dark Elves, feel sincere happiness by being under the King and his people."

……

"Oh, King...."

"Thank you, old Mortar. I'm happy, too."

"Hahaha!

While knowing exactly why old Mortar took a painful attitude, Tact made good of his malaise.

No, there must be something hard to judge as a failure. I had no choice but to say yes on that occasion, given his position.

"I'm sure that when the people of our country become citizens of Minogula, we'll get along better! The Dragon Tan is that bridge!

One hand, no, maybe a few.

Tact raised his voice in surprise.

The free will of the people of Minogoula is almost guaranteed by their loyalty to the state and Ira-Tact.

I was able to see the fact in the exchange earlier.

Probably already knew that through an exchange from before. Even if you become a people of Minogula and your soul becomes evil, your will and pride will not be rewritten and you will not become another.

If so, we can prove that it is easy to persuade the people, and thus that it is easy to immigrate the people to the Minogula side.

That is, it adds value to the Dragon Tan and can carry the bargaining advantage.

It was only a confirmation that Mortar threw words at the old man.

That's what Von Caven wants to say.

You want people, right? Both of you and I are ready for that.

Minogula, who wanted to sell his gratitude to immigrants in a way that was difficult, didn't want to nod honestly.

But if you don't nod here, the story will fail from the very beginning.

If we don't find a compromise with each other, we'll only lose out on this meeting.

"Yes, friendship between the two countries is very important."

Tact rotates his head at a high speed to simulate the subsequent flow and examine each other's advantages and disadvantages.

Acceptance of former Von Caven residents. Either way, if they naturalized into the inhabitants of Minogula, they would never forget their homeland.

Of course, due to systemic constraints, their loyalty will be dedicated to Minogula, but it will certainly remain a memory and memory.

It is certain that the Dark Elves have become the people of Minogula, and that they have not forgotten their resentment of the Elves and their pride as Dark Elves.

In the unlikely event of an affair between Minogula and Foncaven, this fact remains as if lumpy as an element of uncertainty.

Of course, in the end, a new people will take Minogula. But it is not impossible to push the people through with misfortune.

Because - the happiness of the people is directly related to the production of magic.

This Eternal Nations systemic constraint has been a major shackle since coming here.

This means that more than Minogoula accepts Von Caven's people, alliances with Von Caven will be important. And strengthening the status quo alliance relationship is equal to no disadvantage, whether it exists or not.

Certain acts of cultural penetration are undoubtedly a strategy of aggression.

I don't know how far the person thought about it, but I could say it was an incalculable sense anyway.

"A bridge between the two countries...? I see, I think it's a good idea."

This is where it dropped off.

Tact thought it would be a good idea to admit the consideration they prepared as something of value.

This increased the number of take-outs on our side, but based on that, we were only satisfied that an agreement had been reached.

Of course, the Minogula side also has its advantages.

Pepe is right. This strategy not only favours Foncaven, but also the Minogula side.

Like Minogula, Von Caven can't destroy his alliance.

The human mind is not simple. Domestic unrest is immeasurable if our people naturalize into the rest of the country and even if relations with that country become hostile.

Peaceful transfer and naturalization processes are suddenly characterized by betrayal and truncation, leading to disruption to leaders and, in some cases, civil unrest.

In other words, the shackles are also attached to the von Caven.

No matter how you fall, you can't betray each other. That was the result of this agreement.

"Ah, yes. Looks like there were Dark Elves in my country... and I might as well talk to them about becoming a Minogula citizen! I'll invite the people of my country!

And you don't have to be stupid, but Pepe's solo theater continues with a glimpse of deep knowledge behind it.

The dark elves stand out in color in the words.

I should have suggested it from this side, but it was also a first step here.

I see. I'm good at managing people. Tact feels a little sad that he would have lived a much more enjoyable life if he were as communicative as he is.

"Ma, no, no, Pepe! That was your decision! We haven't decided yet. We're not talking!

Hmm? Grandma will do something about it. Say it as well as you did before!

"You idiot!

"Besides, do you have enough food to feed all the people today?

"Kh! Which side are you really on?!

I thought it would be interesting to watch. And I still feel good.

Well, you don't have to make decisions around here right away. With the magic of Minogula today, we can provide some food support.

It's pathetic that there are more holes in Tonukapori's stomach, so maybe we can send a help ship around here.

With that in mind, Pepe suddenly turned away from Tact and looked seriously.

"I think I did something bad to Tact. Because we couldn't do anything in the last fight. We were supposed to be responsible for the bleeding."

Tact shows the gesture of thinking a little about the words and tells the truth.

"He wanted the world destroyed and conquered. Either way, they were hostile to Minogula. It's not the fault of the von Caven."

"Well, the bad news is that the bad guys who've been at war with us are going to be the same!

"And we have failed to prepare ourselves adequately."

Yes, everything is underprepared. No - it's a tragedy with the sweetness of recognition.

It's not just about von Caven, it's about Minogula and Tact.

"So, next, let's get ready, Tact. so that whoever comes up with any idea can defeat it. With overwhelming force."

Everyone was involved in the words.

A charismatic word might say something like this. Tact feels impressed, but deeply sympathizes with his thoughts.

Preparedness is important. Overwhelming preparedness. Overwhelming national power. And overwhelming power.

Whatever I had to do, I needed it.

"We let people out. What are you going to do?

Tact laughs in his heart.

What an interesting opponent.

Strength is not limited to simple violence.

Things are complex, and a variety of factors affect people and the world.

How much influence can power have on others? It represents.

Speaking of which, Pepe's genius insight and his naive and bizarre behavioral powers were truly power.

And Tact had such a favorite personality.

"Old Mortar"

"Ha! We're ready... are you sure?

"Pepekun was better at negotiating. Well, it's a story of mutual benefit."

Tact changes his original schedule here.

We decided to release the consideration that we would have provided to a certain extent.

Be prepared for the price of readiness.

If Peppa von Caven is serious about going to Minogula so far, we can't afford not to respond either.

Even if we had to settle some relationship with them in order to fulfill our ambitions, there was certainly still friendship as an alliance there.

"Peppa, do you want power?

Tact tells the words quietly and in a slightly overwhelming manner.

That's a word I used to hear in the old world, and I wanted to use it someday.

"I want it!

"Now it's our turn to surprise."

Yes, now it's our turn to fool them.

Let's give them the power to multiply the value of what they imagine.

Don't let anything appear hostile to both countries again.

"Then I'll show you the real violence, as you wish."

"I'm looking forward to it!

Pepe laughed so innocently, and the von Caven attendees, including Tonukapoli, had a uniformly pale face.
