Editor: (Starbuck11)
Noon, 6th Day, 11 Month, the Year 2813, Western Continent Calendar
The city of Sirius was full of vigor
The slave children that had been delivered the other day frantically swung their swords in order to grab their own fortune with their own hands, after five , those who finished the trial will obtain freedom They all worked hard in order to create their new hometown
Everyone used their power to steadily develop the city
They held Mikoshi+ba Ryous, in high regard -
The air inside the rooed the moment Ryouma read the letter sent by Elena from the royal capital city of Pireaus
Looking at the letter date, it ritten the day before yesterday
And considering the distance between the capital and the Wortenia peninsula,The letter arrived quite early
Since the essence of the letter was confidential, thehorses in various places -
”I' surprised since the boy has warned h it off either”
Lione said those words, while she smiles bitterly
Everyone in the sa as her, and the color of discomfort appeared on everyone's faces
Only Mikoshi+ba Ryouentle smile
”This is quite troubling indeed, right when our city expansion has been going well”
Genouat the noise that came in from the s
”Indeed However, We have no other choice but to go It was pleasing enough that she actually called us Since there is also the possibility that on't get involved because she hasn’t made her mind yet on whether or not to involve the friend she cast away”
Ryou those words
Everyone in the room nodded in response to those words
It was easy for theiven the subsequent result, it was not that easy
The Kingdom of Rozeria was about to sink
That was a fact with no room of denial
The power structure Lupis had aiative impact due to her lack of determination
Certainly, if one were to consider that she was a royaltime, it was understandable that she wanted to concentrate the power around her -
However, the problem was Lupis Rozerianuz’s personality
(It's not like she is bad Actually, she is a good person Her brain is also there She has adequate knowledge too And because she can show consideration to the people, in theory, she should have been a good monarch)
Ryouma's evaluation of Lupis was not really bad
Not to mention, despite the fact they were not without some faults, Meltina and Mikhail were appropriate aides
Both have loyalty toward the royal faarded as first-class
At least they cannot be incompetent
(In the end, the biggest proble that I do not know the situation yet)
There ords in the book of “The art of ritten by Sun Tzu
Those words were “Know your enemy, know yourself, and you will never lose a battle”
Even people who didn’t know Sun Tzu’s “The art of war, they should at least have heard of those words at least once in their lifetime, but actually, there was a continuation of it
If you know your enemy and know yourself, you will obtain victory
If you do not know your eneht, you will clearly be in a danger
What did those words ather intelligence before advancing to the battlefield
And also the need to know about your own self
Knowing yourself and the opponent you fight against
if you're able to judge whether or not the possibility of winning existed, you will easily win battles
You also can avoid fighting if you know that the chance of winning was not present in advance
Following those words, one should never fight if one did not know the power of the enemy and were still unable to understand oneself
Because if one were to fight with such conditions, the only result would be a total loss in every fight
The s were to know oneself
Understand one's advantages over the enemy
Find any weakness within oneself
And to understand them
Had Lupis understood her own shortcos, she wouldn’t havewas centered around her
The ruler's duties were to decide on various ientle and kind-hearted, she lacks determination when she needs to make a harsh decision
Ryouma himself believes that Lupis should have introduced a council syste the powers of the priood forovernestion
Of course, there was also the possibility of sabotage by Gerhardt, but if she holds the entire authority of the military, she should have no problems
In actuality, had Lupis consulted with Ryou, he would have said that
”I don't really want to get involved, but as expected, we have no choice but to go huh? I’m honestly reluctant to accept this”
She was using a light tone as usual, but Lione's eyes looked serious
Considering her, no one can help it if she did not want to get involved in this affair
After all, Bolts and her were the ones who took charge of the training of the children
In case of a war, it would place those children lives at a great risk
Had it been for the sake of the city of Sirius, Lione would have ordered theht to the death
However, it would be hard to convince thedom
”Although Lione-san is not wrong, I still cannot refuse this su this for the Rozeria Kingdom or Lupis This is for the sake of our survival and to expand our power beyond e have right now”
”To oppose the Ortomea Empire is it?”
Ryouma nodded toward Genou's question
”If Zalda were to be destroyed, the next one will be Rozeria Given the national land and strength, the three eastern countries can oppose the Ortoether But if it was only two countries then”
”It would be impossible”
Lione said those words bitterly
It did not mean she did not understand the current situation
She just can't accept that due to the current situation they ended up helping Lupis once again
”Well, I guess that’s hoent Besides, I'e of this and pull us forward”
Ryou his shoulders
”Advantage ? Pull us forward ?”
Lione turned her eyes toward Ryoue word mixed in
”Well, the shape of the city has coht, thus I’d like to proceed with full development of the Wortenia peninsula More specifically we need farrants with special skills After that, we also need civil servants”
”If that’s the case, we're not in the position to sent reinforcements huh?”
”Indeed, but you know, no matter e do, we can't increase the population with slaves alone Nothe saucer is if there is no content to put inside then it would be less no?”
”That ht be true Since theof house are fairly easy, we can accept any people anytime, but”
Confusion mixed within Bolts' words
Indeed, besides people froa clan, only the slave children and mercenaries lived inside this Sirius city
Mercenaries, soldiers, the ninja and their family members
A the ninja people, there were soe, thus it was not a proble a weapon, but this city was still a hoeneous city with only soldiers but without merchant and farmers
The only exception to that were the few
Of course, Bolts hiood to stay like this forever either
Since, in any case, it would be impossible to take taxes unless they develop the industry and cultivate the farmland
‘However, how are they going to do it?’
That is as inside Bolts' mind
