Vol 2 Chapter 425 (2/2)
No matter what, she can't say that she wants to confine him after all
And Meltina's words are within Ryouma’s expectations
”I see, so that's how it is! If that the case I would gladly help!”
”What's wrong? Is your wish just to confirm my will?”
Listening to Ryoues Of course, Ryou fell within his plans For him to corner both Lupis and Meltina
”That's not it, Your Majesty! Because if I don't confirm your majesty’s will, it would be hard for me to ask for my wish”
A chill ran down the spin of the tere about to hear Ryouma’s wishes
”What is it that you wish for?”
”Well, I just want to borrow some money to develop the peninsula to calculate the borrowed money, I need to understand your reat honor for me that your majesty put your majesty's expectation on me I will do my best to meet your majesty's expectation!”
Ryouma deeply lowers his head toward Lupis
”Wait! What are you talking about? The Wortenia peninsula is your territory! The royal family should not have to fund that!”
Meltina slightly raises her voice
While Ryoue
”Ha? This is different! Her Majesty knows the situation within Wortenia peninsula, and she wishes for prosperity and development of the territory”
”That's right! That's ant you to develop the territory with your talent!”
”But then, I'm just a commoner I have no property Does Meltina and your Majesty know that?”
”Well, we do”
”Since I have no money, I need to borrow from someone to answer Her Majesty expectation But noto lend funds for the development of the territory”
Merchants hate taking such large risks, development of a territory that housed dele one were to view it, there were noit
”That's ith your talent”
Meltina desperately tried to cling to their plan
If they were overtaken by hi will burst into bubbles
If they can't contain Mikoshi+ba Ryouma, Lupis would be crushed
It is absolutely necessary for the to happen
”Of course! I have my talents However, I'm not God! There's no way for me to develop such land without any resource I think the wise Queen understand that?”
Ryouinally she planned to ied to proceed this far she could not refuse him because she had already affirmed her will previously
”How much do you need?”
”Your majesty!”
Lupis ignored Meltina's screa and there werethe knights who guarded the audience rooraceful behaviours in front of her people She needs to show them that she is the monarch that would ask a commoner to do an important task
”As expected of your h estimate fund that I need is around 100 billion baht!”

Pfft
Following Sudou's explanation, Saitou burst out into laughter
For him who's usually calm and polite, this is an unusual occurrence
and Sardina had no intention of reproaching his behavior either
After all, she was also surprised because of the explanation
Firstly, a cheap hotel in town is usually cost 100 baht per night
Another 100 bath if you want to take ht
That means, 200 baht is necessary for a person to live for a day
With that, one can understand, how much the demands Ryouma had put forth
”Such an incomprehensible amount With that adom!”
Following Saitou's words, Sardina also nods in agreement
”Even for the Eo”
It wasn’t an impossible task but no nation within the western continents are able to pass such an ao since the incoet
Most of the things that are ilect such as salaries of the officials and capital investment in the military
If the eo, they would have to spend hours working over the et
Even for just the paperwork alone will take a lot of time
That's why it is idom which has smaller size compared to the empire
Toward Sardina's words, Sudou nodded in agreement
”I agree However, it would be bad for the to develop the land”
Opening up the forest, creating roads, hiring a work force and soldiers, preparing to take care of the pirates and derates
If one were to look at it from an economical standpoint, that much would be quite reasonable if one were to develop the peninsula
”But still that many Just what Ah! I see so that's how it is!”
”As expected of your highness did you notice?”
Toward Sardina realization, Sudou smiled and narrowed his eyes
”Did he really think he would be able to receive that aet rejected and presented smaller demands?”
Sudou picked out a piece of paper from inside his pocket and presented it to Sardina
”This is?”
”The list of things that Mikoshi+ba demanded from the Queen Lupis I've confirmed that all of them are troublesome It seems like the territory would be codom”
The clauses on the paper are detailed, and there are quite a few items
Sardina looked at each of the conditions Ryouma put forward, from top to bottom
Her expression then turns cloudy
Ryouhly ask for,
To leave all law, military, diplomacy, and economy to Mikoshi+ba Ryouma
Exedom
In other words, while being in a position of being a Baron, Ryouma held an authority comparable to that of a Duke
”Did she Queen Lupis Really accept this?”
Sudou nodded his head answering Sardina question
”I heard she's stupid But to this extent This is the sa freedom to a venomous viper”
”It seems like her mind was dazzled by the aave perht”
”Well, I understand that But still”
This is the saerous man
Moreover, with the land
”Well, the saving grace is no matter how much authority over the land he has, the land has no revenue and also unexplored Basically, he has to create everything fro”
”Saitou Do you think the same?”
Sardina asked Saitou as in silence since a while ago
Land without tax revenue
Filled with monsters
No assistance frodom
Just what in the world can Ryouma do?
But Saitou could not say that
Because he also slightly holds so known as Mikoshi+ba Ryouma
Sardina diverted her eyes from Saitou
Everyone within the roo of anxiety
”Sudou Your plan Are you sure it’s not backfiring?”
Sudou answered her question with silence
Sudou hiested Lupis to make Ryouma a noble
And that is to confine Mikoshi+ba Ryouma
Of course, Sardina also doesn't want Ryou appointed to another country
Especially the countries located in the northern and western part of the continent
But the plan ht actually backfire
Such anxiety binds the three people inside the room
”Well, it's fine Sudou Don't let hiht, understood?”
Sudou nodded toward Sardina's command without many words
”Well then, your highness The next plan, is it alright to assuins?”
”Yes As planned before, we're going to invade theht?”
”Please be relieved Due to the previous civil war, unrest is spreading within both the aristocracy and knights Because they need to focus on their internal affairs, Rozeria won't be able to reinforce Zalda”
”Very well! I leave the Rozeria's matters in your hand!”
Toward Sardina's words, Sudou and Saitou nodded their head
The Orto country
