Chapter 76

Angry Mia in a Carriage

In the Tearmoon Empire, there exists an exclusive group of knights called the “Princess Guard.” They were created through Ludwig’s request to respond to the whims of Princess Mia at any time. Protected by these loyal knights, the carriage carrying Mia headed to the territory of Viscount Berman.

“My... my... It hasn’t been half an hour since I gave the instructions, and we are already on the road. Very impressive, Ludwig.”

“Not at all, Your Highness. I learned from the past experiences, especially from your visit to the slums the other day.”

Ludwig’s face looked stern, but he wasn’t in a bad mood. Ludwig has a certain degree of confidence that Mia’s actions are basically error-free and that they are based on wisdom and virtue.

As a talented official, Ludwig had a good grasp of the problems that were occurring in Viscount Berman’s territory. So, when the Viscount came to visit Mia, he expected something to happen and was prepared in advance.

This time, I had some information, so I managed to prepare something beforehand. But, if possible, it would be better if Her Highness would share her intentions beforehand as well... No, it is my duty as her vassal to be able to accurately interpret Her Highness intentions.

Ludwig noticed that sometimes Mia’s logic takes a big leap that he had trouble keeping up. The speed of the way she thinks always leaves others unable to follow. She was always thinking one or two moves ahead of others. And to think that she is still young...

She will surely grow up to be the wisest monarch. Ludwig’s expectations and loyalty grew unchecked.

“Well then, Ludwig, could you tell me about Viscount Berman and his domain?”Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Mia said with a smile.

Regardless of the previous timeline where she was never friends with Tiona. According to the diary which foretells the current timeline, her relationship with Tiona was broken. Mia had always wondered what caused it. After all, there were no signs of it during their time at school.

The mystery has been solved! Viscount Berman, it is all your fault!

Anger rises from within Mia. Ludwig noticed this and started praising Mia for such a righteous anger. Ludwig assumes that Mia is angry because of this blatant injustice by a noble. However, he didn’t know that Mia is just angry because Viscount Berman is the cause for her getting closer to the guillotine.

“That’s all I know. At this stage, I’m sure the fault lies with Viscount Berman...”

Ludwig cut his words there without finishing his sentence. Knowing what the problem is, is one thing. Finding a solution to the problem is another one. In fact, finding a solution is where the difficulty begins. What Viscount Berman was trying to do was more of a gray zone than wrong.

Clearing the forest to gain more land is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as it was in his territory, then nobody can complain.

The border with Count Rudolvon is certainly ambiguous, so it’s hard to say where the border is. The only opposing voices is the minority tribe of Lulu, and it is certain that the central Government will support him against them. In fact, they have already dispatched forces to do this. Furthermore, this military force is another problem. Since they have already been dispatched, they cannot just withdraw without a reason of without achieving their goal that peace has been restored.

Ludwig couldn’t think of a way to solve all these problems. And so...

“So, Your Highness, what are you going to do?”

“What do you mean, what am I going to do? Of course, I have decided. I’m going to teach them a lesson!”

Mia declared while flaring in anger.
