200 2. Exchanger's Mind

"And for now, is Larsia safe?

The day after the Queen (Elizabeth) and the Minutemen (Ritna) took away the bandits of the meadow race (Larsia). To Elizabeth with a strangely neat look, Yut utters a fearful word of confirmation.

But the Queen asked, if she's not sure what they're saying, just smiles innocently. The expression was surprisingly young and worthy of the Princess of Thin Happiness, who had a coup d 'état against her uncle.

"Is it possible that we would harm Larsia?"

"Really? 'Us'..."

All together, the two of us who came to this castle fortress. There was no remorse in Elizabeth, who was led to Yut's office for an informal visit, or in Ritna, who went to the kitchen of the fortress to find food.

I don't know what process I went through, but they built a good relationship between my wife and my sister anyway.

Has love saved the world?

However, Larsia may not think she needs love or anything else anymore.

Sinful, thy name be love.

Just a little immersed in a literary mood, Yut shakes his head gently and switches to practice.

"This is the deal, but we agreed with Mr. Batras in the big frame"

Elizabeth is not only here to overlap Larsia and Meise in everything.

The "land of oblivion", where the collapse of repeated civilizations makes animals, especially livestock, extremely scarce, is, on the other hand, blessed with rare magical silver (miserable) and adamantine and other ores in the Brewers.

It's a valuable deal to make up for each other's shortages.

Of course, given that we are visiting earlier than originally assumed, I can't even say that the Queen had no heart.

"Please confirm"

"I'm here, I'm not the queen..."

That being said, Elizabeth receives the inventory Yut gave her. I look through the paperwork as I fix my silver hair flakes.

Last time it was the Spelllight, which focused on cattle, pigs, goats, sheep, horses and other livestock animals, but that was not the only request this time.

Wolves and hawks. Alternatively, there is a wide variety of bats, mice, fish, etc. It's like you're aiming for an ark.

Some of them are not on the market, so you have to ask the adventurer to collect them specially.

"Exactly, collecting everything takes time"

"Naturally. I'll wait as long as I can."

I don't think that's even an end, but I guess it's true that it doesn't matter if it's too late. Unexpectedly a bitter laugh yuut.

"But I also feel like I'm getting a little too much"

"It's the same here."

The queen smiles flashly.

If I didn't know her very well, I'd almost be drawn in by accident.

"Besides, we also satisfy our personal desires, not our national interests."

"Oh...... Maybe that's the same for Mr. Batras."

"And Batras? Um... What about Batras?

"I don't mean anything."

Are you concerned about the trend of the robot (Warmakina)? In such a way as fear, Elizabeth asks.

The heavyweight knight had disappeared when he put the negotiations together early. In the city, I guess I went looking for a cat.

Definitely. I'm getting reports from Yona that she was intimidated by a cat she owns in a primary school.

Maybe even a cat cafe should be made. Not good. I'm immersed.

"Are you done to that extent? But I'll make sure you don't miss the surveillance."

Take a breath of relief and look blatantly relieved. I'm not a queen, I'm not Larsia's self-proclaimed wife. Her, another side of the glimpse.

"Sure, well, that's it. I don't think there's much harm done."

"That's right."

"hahaha"

"Other than me, yes."

"hahahaha"

I stepped on a mine.

But Yut, on the surface, doesn't break his spare attitude.

Mouth the herbal tea as if nothing had happened, and at the same time, try to twist another topic.

"Speaking of which, me and Alcia will be away for a while"

"Well, yes."

"Yes, to negotiate a little with my neighbor."

Not too mundane and good, but not enough to keep it a secret.

Yut explained to Elizabeth his troubles with Viscount Playmea and going to negotiate whether there were any substitutes for that compensation.

"Is it Master Left..."

But somehow she clouds her expression.

Surprised that something would have gone wrong, Elizabeth tightened her expression and opened her mouth strictly.

"I know it's unnecessary, but let me say it as a precursor to those involved in politics"

That's exactly the style of the queen.

Unexpectedly, Yut's spine also stretches.

"Sweet."

"Sweet?"

Will there be an amount of compensation? Or try to reduce what you decide once, with that attitude?

"A neighbor is an enemy. It is not generous to pity the enemy. It's sin."

"It's a friendly country..."

The neighboring kingdom of the Kronika god is an ally in the service of the gods of good, as is the kingdom of Rotosilt. Wrong, but not enemy.

But Elizabeth points out that that is a mistake.

"Even if it were now, the future would not be guaranteed. Chronica, is this the kingdom of God? If that country is playing the role of a jetty, cutting national power is a lower measure…"

"The other way around."

The Verga Empire - it is the Rotosilt kingdom that is the bulwark from evil. The alliance with the Kingdom of the Chronica God has the advantage of eliminating the need to worry about the back.

But more than that, he had given the Cronican Divine Kingdom the benefit of not having to confront the Verga Empire directly.

"Then a sweet response could put the other person up"

"I'm an allied opponent, so I'm forgiven..."

"Yeah. If I were you, I'd at least be sending soldiers to the border"

Harsh.

But there was an atmosphere on her that made her wonder if that was one of the choices of the exchangers. Civil unrest and subsequent reign. Reminds me that there would have been various difficulties.

Nevertheless, Yut is not involved in national politics. (i) There is a degree of representation of local lords. So I don't have that much authority or obligation...

"Is it sweet..."

"Right. Reviewing compensation also makes no sense if it's too harsh and invites extra backlash, but it looks repelled to squeeze itself"

"That's true."

Yut fully acknowledged Elizabeth's allegations.

If we respond harshly to Viscount Playmea, it will be its inhabitants who will eventually be in need. I'm not in trouble for the money either.

Then I thought if I could discover something that I didn't think was a resource over there and offset it, it would be a story that would benefit both sides.

That's the ideal theory, the silver-haired queen breaks it.

"I think there is room for those who have power. Tolerance is a virtue, but they don't appreciate it honestly"

"My ear hurts..."

Yut accidentally went back to being a vegetable.

It goes against my tastes and aesthetics, such as the exaggeration of power, but it certainly doesn't make sense that I'm crushing my adversaries with it every time.

"From me, you're rather teethy. I mean, shouldn't you be interested in the country independently? And minister Lady Larsia."

"hahahahaha"

It won't be a return of interest earlier, but I can't respond to Elizabeth's remarks that are blurry. Rather than laughing and deluding.

Of course, I guess Elizabeth doesn't mean it either.

Smile gracefully, bow your head lightly, and take down your earlier suggestions at the same time.

"An outsider has made an extra mouthful. Forget it."

"Terrible. Apart from talking about independence, the others were helpful. Thank you."

Think of it, she was the first person whose interests could talk about policy without conflict or association. Plus, they're the bigger, more experienced predecessors.

Very informative.

However, there were some special circumstances.

"But the Count Istus family (of which) must also take care of their reputation."

"Oh...... How about that?"

"Because it's what I like and do"

Valtrude Istas.

The Virgin of Helenonia. A hero who saved the world.

Diplomacy, which takes place in her name, must not be pursued solely for profit. That's Valtrude's, because he's going to pity the people he loves the most in the world.

"It's really troublesome talk about national interests and politics."

"Not at all. My domestic situation is also somewhat involved."

Letter from Prince Alsace. Yut laughs bitterly, recalling a political statement other than about the wedding, which was in it.

In some cases, you have to think about bringing your enemies on our side. To do this, Viscount Playmea - you can't even hunt down the Chronica Divine Kingdom too much.

Exactly, although I can't talk about this.

"Speaking of which, Exile will have children,"

"Yeah. Sounds like it's coming soon."

I don't know if I can think of rock giants (Jarloot) getting pregnant or giving birth the same way as humans do, but it seems to give birth in a month or two.

It is so emotional that that Exile seems to be struggling with the naming of the child.

"Let me give you something to celebrate, too. Exactly, it will be difficult to be present."

"I think I'll be happy"

The political story is about to end and the office door opens without a knock.

There's only one person who does this.

"Eri Eri. Have you finished your work yet?

"Yes. Sister"

"Eri Eri... Sister......"

Ritna rushing over with a small body and Elizabeth welcoming it with a full grin.

Perhaps she sprung the suspicion that anything would be good for a meadow race (Magner), but she instantly took it into the trash.

The next day, Yut, along with Alcia, first traveled to Rimainz, Dwarf.

In the end, I didn't even face Larsia.
