401 Seeking a place to be active

"Lord General, I heard you. You think the Reinzatz family is going to decide on an operation to recapture the King's capital? Why aren't you in that operation?

"To give priority to stability within the kingdom, Lord Brams. The Kingdom of Fontana didn't have time to improve its agricultural land last year either. First of all, we believe in domestic enrichment."

"But I hear it's an operation from almost all directions against the Memento family holding back the Wang metropolitan area. No doubt the Memento family will be defeated. What happens then? The Rheinzatz family, the Kingdom of Risorte, and so on will be even more powerful."

"In other words, the idea is that Lord Brams should expand Fontana's power by participating in the victory."

"Exactly."

"It's hard. The national territory of the Kingdom of Fontana is neither bordered by Memento territory nor by the Wang metropolitan area. Even if you get territory, if you can get on a winning battle, it will be a jump. If that happens, they'll just be attacked and taken from another force somewhere. I don't think it's a very good operation."

"But..."

"Besides, this operation to reclaim the King's capital is a proposal by the Reinzatz family. If Fontana were to join this operation, which the hegemonic nobility carries out by issuing a decree against each nobleman, it could be seen by Fontana as a nobleman who obeys the decree of the hegemonic nobility rather than an independent kingdom. You can't do that."

"No, then the Kingdom of Risorte should be in on it, too? They're all part of the operation, even though they call them kingdoms."

"The Kingdom of Risorte fought the Rheinzatz family last year, partly but taking their territory. In other words, it has already shown that there is more power than reciprocity. And in this operation, we are only exchanging agreements as another force targeting Memento territory, not Wang Capital. I don't think it's considered lower than hegemonic aristocracy."

"But..."

"Wait, Lord Brams. Isn't your true intentions elsewhere? The pretext for participating in an example operation is actually anything, and you want to be on the battlefield, right? To show you the power of the Rubitch family."

"Ugh... that's... No, you're right, General. Our Lubitsch family can only manipulate swords. Our only way to show that power is on the battlefield. Please, I'd like the Rubitch family to have a place to work."

"Um, is that what you mean by giving magic to the Fontana Army to make the swordsmen you used to say?

"No. It's not. I still disagree with lightly imparting aristocratic magic to peasants. I don't. I want my Lubitsch family on the battlefield."

Hmm.

What's the matter?

When I met Brams, the young owner of the Lubitsch family, who had suddenly been installing an appointment saying there was a rush or something, I mentioned this.

He claims he wants to go out on the battlefield to show the power of the Lubitsch family.

I don't want to fight for my life for that reason.

Or you shouldn't.

But this could be somewhat my fault, too.

When I attacked the Rubitch family, I ordered Brams to take the lead because he was still young and thought would be flexible.

but maybe he was too young.

Apparently, Brams is also under pressure from the Lubitsch family humans and cannot break the noble customs of the past.

Because if we compromise easily, Brams himself may be blamed from within.

In that regard, Gary of the Hermes family was soft-headed for the price.

Maybe the land where I lived has something to do with it.

Former Hermes territory, which was a mountainous and unproductive territory.

Sales of the harvest in the mountains, which maintained its Hermes territory, had also begun to fall in recent years.

The Hermes family, starting with Gary, who was feeling it on his skin, agreed to turn his magic into gold as soon as it was absorbed by Fontana.

Maybe it was because I originally feared for the future that I was able to make a thoughtful decision, unlike the Lubitsch family.

I wonder what the problem is.

I just included it here against Brams, and I don't know how effective it is against the whole Lubitsch family.

I wonder if Brams' stomach will only have a crisp and painful result, like an intermediate managerial position that can be blamed from above and below.

but can't you do anything because of that?

You might want to remind the whole Lubitsch family.

that the new Fontana army system is far superior to the way the old army operates.

"Okay. Shall we fight?"

"Well, are you going to take part in the King's Capital recapture operation, Your Highness?"

"No, it's not. It's the Fontana and Lubitsch armies that fight. Again, let's fight each other squarely without snow."

"... what? What..., are you kidding me, General?

"I mean it, Lord Brams. You should be fully shown the power of the Lubitsch family in that battle. Now let's get ready."

Thus, being a lump of kindness, I decided once again to offer the Rubitch family a place to play.
