‘This is very i’
Milton was surprised to see King Bauchen’s statusIt could even be said that there was no one better in all of Strabus Kingdom, the continent’s centralof a country Codom, was a piece of trash that only cared about his oer and authority Milton realized that thisBauchen, wasn’t soht a total of 80,000 troops, so that we’re very thankful for”
“It was our pleasure, Your Majesty”
“But isn’t this tooBauchen subtly probed him, Milton responded politely but briskly
“Our country, like the Kingdom of Strabus, is a country that shares a border with the Republic With that inin so that also i Bauchen nodded at his words
“I see, that
“There’s definitely a difference between a country that’s like mine and shares a border with the Republic and the countries that are further inland and safe frodo as he listened to the bitter tone of King Bauchen’s voice
‘There’s a proble Bauchen continued to speak

Milton forgot for a second that this was another country’s war and alive ized, King Bauchen spoke
“It’s alright I fully understand your feelings, Marquis I also feel the sarim smile
“Isn’t it ridiculous?”
“Yes… it really is”
Is this what peopleis absurd?
Milton couldn’t understand the size of the reinforcements sent by the other countries Not only had they sent such a small number of reinforcements, but most countries had also sent their Counts as the co? Except for Florence Principality, all the other countries on that list were dom They could all easily have sent at least 50,000 troops, but they had all sent less than 30,000 troops Not to mention, most of the co this? If the Republic were to break through Strabus Kingdom, then the Republicans’ blades would reach beyond the Central part of the continent and into the South The surrounding kingdoms’ lackluster support did not make any sense
