"Oh my God, you're so..."
Ludwig, from inside the carriage, had a view of the outside.
The idyllic country road, the light of the day falling from the sky, was about to change from soft morning sunshine to a powerful day thing.
It was supposed to be the time when he had to be leaving for a while, but there was no way his carriage was going to move.
To the lid, I opened the carriage door and Dion Alaia came in. Take off the sword you were wearing on your hips and, whispering, sit down in the chair.
"It's still going to take some time to fix. Oh, my God, you're stuck in a place like this..."
Meers It was not until this morning that a single carriage of carriages was attacked by trouble that I left the village where I stayed. The wheel of a single carriage is broken.
We didn't even talk about leaving one of them behind to move on, but sometimes it was the Greenmoon family's fancy carriage that broke down, so we set off after we finished repairing it.
Fortunately, there is no shield around and it is easy to detect if anyone comes close. As a waiting area, it didn't seem bad.
"So, what's the anomaly?
To Ludwig's inquiry, Dion shrugged his shoulders small.
"No abnormalities. Well, there's the Crown Princess's dedicated Kingsguard, and the Greenmoon family's escort has all the heads. Plus, it looks like Sunkland is quite prepared to welcome the Lady of the Four Dukes. Instead of just being a thief, you won't even think about getting your hands on it."
Then, Dion gently narrows his eyes to the view outside.
"Maybe the princess knows about that, too? What we should be wary of is not bandits or thieves. No matter how many soldiers you have, you're an enemy you can't deal with..."
Ludwig nods silently.
"Indeed, it was this way that the example werewolf fled."
A serpent assassin of chaos, a werewolf. It was near Sankland that the man who attacked Meer disappeared shaking off the chase Ludwig had arranged.
And since then, the assassin hasn't shown up.
"When he comes out, you can't fathom him with a lined escort. Surrounded by dozens of dozens, enough to finally deal with it, and that wolf is a pain in the ass. I understand the princess's concerns."
"Right. Anyway, the escort would be better off. Now, Meer, if anything happens to you, you don't have a face to match everyone."
"Are you talking about a fellow like the Empress?
"Oh. Yeah, speaking of which, I wonder if any of the non-Jill members had introduced you. I would like to introduce you..."
That's how Ludwig remembered.
In Imperial City, he was meeting with several imperialist members to take over his work.
Ludwig was in a hurry that day on his way to the meeting place. There, the tip of the Empire. It was a room in an unused hall now.
"Hey, Ludwig. Looks like your trip to Perugia was good, Ludwig."
When I walked into the room, Balthazar spoke to me the most. Besides him, there were gatherings of around ten people, including Jilbert.
"Oh, Balthazar? What are you panicking about?
Ludwig tilted his little neck as he responded. Basically, Balthazar is a calm man. On rare occasions, I don't think there's anything like this absurd about your voice...
"Can this calm down! Her Royal Highness Princess Meer smelled the revision of the treaty with Perugia."
"Oh. Right. It was suggested that we change the inequality pact that we have with Peru. With that, he said he wanted to establish a new relationship with Peruvian..., and he wanted to earn Peruvian trust... You think it's reckless?
Balthazar shrugged his shoulder with an indescribable face to Ludwig as he stared upwards.
"I'm not saying that... but there's something about Her Royal Highness's genuine enthusiasm that keeps her under pressure."
"I can't believe you're under pressure. Tell us more…"
"Well wait. It's not something to panic about."
Mouthfully, a quiet voice controls those who seek to cast questions on Ludwig.
Behind the room, a gentle grinning old man......, Ludwig bowed his head deeply when he saw the sage Garve.
"It's been a while. My Master."
"Sounds magnificent. More importantly, my apprentice, Ludwig."
"My master seems well, more importantly."
After saying that, Ludwig looked intrigued at the teacher's outfit.
Unlike what I've seen in the woods before, he was dressed in tailored clothing like a high-ranking official.
"Hmm? Oh, this is it. Heh heh, because that outfit doesn't do the schoolmaster's job."
That's how Garve smiled calmly.
To that, Ludwig exhaled a sigh of relief.
Garv is a wandering sage. Because of his personality, which he did not like to stay in one place, I was worried about him, but apparently he was worried.
"Oh, speaking of which, in Perugia, Her Royal Highness Princess Asha also helped me. Is that one taught by his master, too?
Likewise, I'll shake Asha's story about taking a teaching whip at Meer School. and……,
"Ha, that princess is not quite brilliant. Even if you don't ask me to teach you, you can get to the truth with your own thoughts."
"I see..."
"Well... shall I ask you again? Her Royal Highness Princess Meer, the wisdom of the Empire is in Perugia, how it was behaved..."
So Ludwig, invited to the back of the room, sat in a chair and wet his throat with wine for a breath. Then I slowly opened my mouth.
"The first thing Meer did was help me harvest the fruit."
Beginning with an episode of Meer's indulgent hunt for Rubiwa.
"I see. Together, do you earn the trust of the people by sweating on your forehead... I hear that the Princess of Perugia works in farming at the head of the peasants, but she imitated the way the country did?"
"Not only that, but they ate the fruit of the Rubiwa offered on the spot"
Hearing that, one man raised his voice of surprise.
"Rubiwa is a fruit that tastes really good..., but that one gets my hands dirty with fruit juice. It's a food that noble ladies don't like..."
Ludwig speaks gently to his peers, who have not yet understood Meer, as a leader.
"Meer, you don't care about that."
Yes, Meer is indeed a man who does not hate to get his hands dirty if he is to eat sweet fruit. Ludwig hasn't said anything wrong. I didn't say...
"As a token of my gratitude for my labor......, to honestly accept what was offered as a testament to my dear sweating on my forehead along with... It is very impossible for the central nobles who overlook the Peruvian thing with their country..."
I wonder why......, something is going wrong......
"Then there was the golden slope thing. Are you all listening? Talk about the hospitality Perugian gives to the imperial nobility...... I'm sure the master knows..."
"Oh... it's a foolish custom to lay the wheat harvested on the slopes leading to the Wang capital and let it pass by carriage. Perhaps that's what the Imperial aristocrat asshole said. That's all it means to break their pride and give in."
After telling him to throw it away, Garve looked more like Ludwig.
"Let's just say we can't get in the way of that. How did His Highness the Princess respond?
Garve looking at me intriguingly. Ludwig tries to answer only a few well......,
"Oh, me, you got it. Didn't you get off the carriage and go up the ramp?
Before that, Jill Bale spoke. And in his answer, those around him also show a convincing snort.
"I see. That's a proposal. True, wheat is ruined because the carriage passes, but if you just step on it with your feet, it won't. Don't waste their care, let alone hurt their pride too much, it's the best way to drop it!
to the answers given by the slightly magnificent Nobles......, but Ludwig shook his head,
"It's a shame, but that's half. Her Royal Highness Princess Meer took off her shoes and went up the hill barefoot."
"Holy shit! Barefoot!?
"Stupid! Such things, Your Highness!?
Meer's fanatical fans thrive......, Ludwig's bragging continues.
