Yobidasa Reta Satsuriku-sha Chapter 32 (1/2)
Debold, the second son of the Müntzer uards and ten chamberlains with him as he left the royal capitalIt all looked like a parade-like spectacle, with leaflets prepared for hi Hifumi clearly sahen he returned to the royal capital with Alyssa
On the scattered leaflets, “According to princess Imeraria’s wish, for the sake of the peace and harmony of the nation, Debold Müntzer has become the peace envoy”, could be read
Despite it being the royal capital, the literacy rate was low So even though some people picked up the leaflets, the extent of those who could read the of drunkards and carefree people, were cheering loudly But the hugethe flamboyant noble
Like the people below, on the castle’s balcony, Iaze
“Imeraria, did you need me?”
The one who called out to her was the Third Knight Unit’s Pajou
“Oh, it’s Pajou”
Turning around and seeing Pajou’s face, Imeraria relaxed a little
“With this, I too, for the government’s sake, have sacrificed someone else, haven’t I?” Imeraria spoke but then mocked herself
[No, the first victim should be he who is hailed as a hero]
“Debold was ai for you, Imeraria In my humble opinion, shouldn’t this be viewed as self-defense? Besides, the one who suggested this wasthat man”
“… I’ your loyalty Well then, in order for that plan to not co but advance, can we?”
Following Imeraria, Pajou left the balcony and the two entered Iret Not because of the plan with sacrificing someone, but mainly due to what she had previously told Imeraria
Earlier, after having separated from Hifumi, Kasha and Sabnak joined Pajou, who had already returned to the royal capital In order to quickly report to Imeraria, the three briskly cleaned theates
After Kasha et perold by Inition of their services
As they had previously received remuneration froinning, but she was eventually forced to accept the gold as funds to start her life anew
While I that if they could use so been close to Hifu run
After all, if Hifu up strength, who knohen he would have a full-blown confrontation with Orsongrande Fearing that, I seen Hifu close up As the report concluded and Sabnak and Kasha stepped back, Pajou began a long follow-up session with Imeraria
“At first I didn’t think Hifumi would be able to accomplish numerous amounts of military achievements as he has now This, of course, is atoo naive since we knew that only his individualexperienced countless battles, it seems that we still underestimated his absurdness”
“Imeraria I can say that I’ree with us on this conclusion No one could have expected that his love for battle would enable him to brilliantly take control of the enemies territory with such ease”
While so individually, it doesn’t mean he will survive on the battlefield And as far as the two of thehts respectively, in ter methods never seen before, he also had the lowest amount of possible casualties… those were all completely unexpected accomplishments
News of Hifuht to the royal capital byfrom Vichy, and had already become the topic of conversation within the capital Everywhere you went you could hear how the “Knight of the Slender Sword”, with barely any casualties or losses, had overwhelmed Vichy It was just as it was in one of those heroic tales
It was slightly exaggerated, but ood news for Orsongrande was conversely quite unpleasant Even if the Royal castle didn’t want Hifumi’s popularity to rise, there wasn’t much they could do about it
If it continued like this, Hifu, as well as the sense of respect towards the royal castle, for himself
“He really is a hero, but above that, he’s a lunatic He’s nurturing both cities and the people within the environments in which he can kill others”
Using intentionally strong words, Pajou told Imeraria
She didn’t intend to say that but it was a necessary step for the formation of her plan For only under the leadershi+p of the princess could her plan be carried out
“If you’d forgive me, I have a plan I’d like to present to you”
“Go ahead, let me hear about it”
The plan Pajou had thought about was, simply put, ‘to make it seem like Imeraria was the one who ended the final war’That Arosel, while under Orsongrandes control, was essentially an unnecessary territory and would be difficult to govern
First of all, they’d use Debold as atroops to take back their previous territory While they’re fighting Hifumi in territories such as Fokalore, which he had just recently been bestowed, or Arosel which has recently become occupied, Imeraria would unconditionally surrender Vichy’s former territories with an absolute concession Lastly, they’d secretly reement to cease hostilities Pajou planned to achieve these plans all in one go
“Debold will probably be killed And thefor Arosel and the like will die as well But with this, Hifuains will reach its liht back the peace”
“Vichy’s soldiers should be able to hold Hifumi back, shouldn’t they?”
First of all, the initial unrest would be over there And as a result of Vichy taking up arms, they should be able to tear into Hifue
“That being the case, we need to have Vichy counterattacking with a lot of soldiers It’s necessary to provoke them to the extent they believe that unless they attack with all their power, they’ll have no option but to face ruin For that purpose, we have the peace envoy bringing a provoking letter”
“…Please give it soht”
Having returned for the day, Imeraria called Debold to her office the next day
Finally, his own turn has co over towards Imeraria, Pajou saw him off with a mix of remorse and resolve It’s for the sake of the country!
Understandably, Vichy’s central council received the letter Hifumi sent first
“Hand over Beirevra, huh?”
Scanning over the letter presented by their spy, the elderly council h
Right noas the onlytheir ti with their own cities He was called Minoson, a city representative of the city located furthest away fro amount of soldiers, he stopped
The other council enerally behind schedule Their territories hittled away,the city would prove hard The cities near the national border were frantically thinking up anytheir cities
If Minoson’s city was attacked, it meant that Vichy would’ve already collapsed at that point in tireat effort just because of that War is unchanging For the sake of a new era, any powerful people on the losing side would have to be sacrificed That’s just the way it is
“Even so, this is troublesome”
The proble in front of him
Concerning giving up the spy called Beirevra, Minoson ell aware of what had happened over by Arosel If giving hiood option
But currently, Beirevra’s whereabouts were unknown
