CHAPTER 68 – COME TOGETHER

Once I the delivered report, she sat down on a nearby chair

“I-Imeraria-sama!?” (Maid)

She raised her hand to rein in theat the ready, in a panic

“I’ht I only felt a bit tired” (Imeraria)

With a frail smile she ordered the priain

“So a treaty between a nation and noble’s territory… This is soinally this would probably et of disciplinary actions, but…” (Imeraria)

If I consider the citizens as a whole, for theic tools on top of hi defeated the ene with that, Imeraria estimates

The report ht have also reached the pri on the door to her office

“Enter” (Imeraria)

“As you have ordered, I have come” (Adol)

“Though I think you’ve heard about it, it’s about Horant’s matter” (Imeraria)

Pri obtained Imeraria’s permission to stand at ease, told her that the report has reached him as well

Imeraria nods

“I also considered whether we should punish Earl Tohno, but realistically it’s probably iht oppose Orsongrande… no, thereHifumi-sama The situation is that all the former Vichy territories have been annexed by Fokalore” (Imeraria)

“I’ with Imeraria-sama’s view” (Adol)

“Then, it’s fine to carefully watch the situation?” (Imeraria)

“I considered whether this isn’t a good opportunity” (Adol)

As Imeraria asked “Good opportunity?”, Adol excused hi presumptuous

“It’s the long-awaited chance to hold Imeraria-sa Earl Tohno’snobles won’t be able to meddle at a moment’s notice, if Earl Tohno is close by” (Adol)

Iestion of the priood idea, but once she carefully considered Hifumi’s character, she noticed a point that should cause apprehensions

“Won’t this turn into a situation of “being used” which he hates the most?” (Imeraria)

“It’s probably necessary to explain it in advance and get his consent If we also prepare so to please Earl Tohno, it will be even better” (Adol)

Due to Adol answering pridefully, Imeraria lowered her eyebrows

“What in the world are you planning? I already don’t want to lose anyone else thanks to thoughtlessness, however…” (Imeraria)

“You ht as long as we discuss about a proper request for Earl Tohno To put it si that he is being used in a disagreeable way It will be fine if we just directly request it from him sincerely” (Adol)

“Because it’s just at the right ti him to coach the soldiers of the national army”, Adol said

“If you consider hiainst hi opponent, but if you rely on him as an ally, there won’t be anyone more reliable either” (Adol)

Imeraria closed her eyes to think about Adol’s words

“… Understood We will use your plan, prime minister However, I will be the one to directly talk with Hifuht order to invite Hifumi to this place once he enters the capital” (Imeraria)

“As you wish” (Adol)

Adol, who hang his head deeply, got teary eyes

“And, I congratulate Imeraria-sama from the bottom of my heart for the succession of the throne” (Adol)

Even though I voice, she shohiff of a smile

“In one way or another it caused you to worry, eh? Please support me from now on as well, okay?” (Imeraria)

“At your command!” (Adol)

For a short while Adol wasn’t able to raise his face

Hifumi, iftly finished up this and that in Horant, el concede to him, and already carande to Horant

He left the territorial ar towards Fokalore with the words “It’s fine if you return while also properly doing so”

At first he freely travelled on the highway, but as the ahway increased the closer he got to Orsongrande, he reluctantly got stuck with travelling besides the highhere it wasn’t paved

“What happened?” (Hifumi)

Alhway is heading in the direction of Orsongrande, just like Hifu together with their entire faht of es loaded with sooods

“Say, the highway is awfully crowded Did so happen?” (Hifumi)

He called out to a e close-by with the only reason for his choice being the proxiht of his view

“Ah, there is so on in the royal castle of Horant I heard many soldiers have died Since there seerande, everyone is aio there” (Merchant)

Hifuh there arefood and daily necessities to thethe road

“Given that I’ht business opportunity popped up That’s the kind of guy I am” (Merchant)

As the density of people increases the closer it is to the border, it ht be profitable for business He answered with a pleased expression

“I see Thanks” (Hifumi)

Throwing a gold coin to the merchant, Hifumi headed on

Advancing on the highway for another two hours, there is an excessive congestion of carriages right before the border

Because there is the danger of losing carriages or wagons if proceeding off the pavened expression

“Oh, this is?” (Hifumi)

Albeit a s from further ahead

Instinctively the corners of Hifumi’s mouth rise

While advancing in a hurry offside the highway, he adjusts the location of his katana hanging at his waist

Soon the source of the congestion caht

“Line up! Stand in a row!”

Athe equip his voice quite loudly

Several other people are lined up It seeation of them one by one

A single soldier blocked the way of Hifu on top of the horse

“Don’t you have a strange appearance Tellhere” (Soldier)

“Before that, listen, when I passed through here a few days ago a lot like you wasn’t here, but what the hell are you doing?” (Hifumi)

“Tsk” (Soldier)

Clicking his tongue, the soldier drew his sword

It causes a co the commoners, ere in the vicinity Some also take a distance

“Answer the question without nitpicking!” (Soldier)

Ignoring the yelling soldier, Hifuroup at the front He discovered the soldier receiving money from the people there

“Toll… eh?” (Hifumi)

“That’s right! You have to pay one silver coin if you want to pass here!” (Soldier)

Due to the soldier’s words, who doesn’t even try to hide it anyle woman with her children

“Hey, you Listen to me for just a minute” (Hifumi)

“Y-Yes” (Woman)

“Is there a syste charity to dumb soldiers in this country?” (Hifumi)

“Eh? Umm, that…” (Woman)

While alternating her look between the soldier and Hifuood The soldier is scary, but it seems Hifumi’s eyes are scary as well

“You! Are you taking me for a fool!?” (Soldier)

Taking a step forith his left foot in rage, he raised his sword overhead, but the soldier’s movement suddenly stopped

The katana, drawn and held with the left hand in a backhand grip, is piercing the soldier’s left eye
