Chapter 143: The Changing International Situation (2)
Once he was alone with Queen Leila, Milton spoke
“Didn’t you accept too many of them, Your Majesty?”
“I’m tired What do you mean?”
Queen Leila’s face expressed her tiredness fro with all the nobles who had been turned away every single day
“I’do, Your Majesty”
“Don’t worry about it There’s no problem”
“But I AM worried”
Milton quietly went behind Queen Leila and gently ed her shoulders
“What do you e, dear”
Queen Leila looked slightly shocked when Milton began to e her shoulders Even if she was a queen, it was pretty unconventional for a e a wo his lovable vixen showing a rare expression of ee her shoulders
“What’s wrong with ht now”
“Still… ah…”
Queen Leila tried to get hi as if she had given up on stopping hie
“But what’re you worried about? Ah… a bit softer…”
“You have a lot of knots Of course I’m worried Too many lords surrendered to us If you co as our country originally was, right?”
“It is a bit… ah… much”
Queen Leila felt so co in a puddle She spoke weakly
When Milton heard her sigh, he paused a
“We’re too defenseless, it could be dangerous, Your Majesty”
“Mm… what is?”
“That’s…”
He aled to turn what could’ve been a blunder into so about the border defense It’ll be difficult to protect the Western region from enemy attacks with our current troops, Your Majesty”
Just like the Lester Kingdom didn’t pay much attention to the defense on their Eastern border, the Strabus Kingdom hadn’t paid ion Milton didn’t have the confidence to protect a region without any defense if this large region becadoht with only the Lester Kingdom’s troops Currently, the Republican Are and with the frontline expanding, this was disadvantageous for theht there…”
“Look here, you have to respond when a person talks to you, okay, Your Majesty the Queen”
“Ah… but your fingers are too ht I’ll stop joking around and answer you”
Queen Leila rotated her shoulders as if they were lighter and she felt better She continued to talk to Milton
“You don’t have to worry, the eneht”
“Why is that?”
“It’s said that the Hildes Republic fell and Siegfried took control of the Republican Army”
“I heard the news”
It was unwelcofried had a low position compared to his ability and hadn’t been shown his full ability, but now, Siegfried had been inaugurated as the commander-in-chief of the Republican ArmyHe had full control of the war For Milton, this news only ht differently
“If Siegfried isn’t foolish, he’ll stop the war at this point”
“What is your reasoning for that, Your Majesty?”
“First of all, he achieved their original purpose From the outside, the Republicans won this war They destroyed the Strabus Kingdoht But because of us, didn’t the Hildes Republic’s et passed over to our country? Not to mention, we took over the wester part of the occupied Strabus Kingdohed
No ht about it, they had done too well
“If I was Siegfried, I wouldn’t stop the war here At the very least, I would want to take back the Western region of the Strabus Kingdoreat as your cleverness on the battlefield”
When Queen Leila smiled as she said that, Milton responded sullenly
“Sorry for that”
Queen Leila clung to hian to cohtly bruised
“Whoo Don’t sulk I”m happy to be able to support you when you can’t”
“……”
‘She’s seriously a vixen’
Thecute, he lost his mental state At this point, Milton couldn’t help but wonder if this wasn’t al
“Ahe?”
Queen Leila nodded in response
“In the first place, it wouldn’t be right to continue the hen you’ve already acco inally planned”
“That’s true, but that’s only if you’ve reached your goal We’ve sed the Western region of the Strabus Kingdoet past that, Your Majesty?”
“He wouldn’t get past that But, at this point, if he continues to fight against us, it’s i the ould be”
“Would he be that vigilant against us?”
“Yes, to be more precise, he would be on the lookout for you, dear”
“Me?”
Queen Leila smiled when she saw him so flustered
“You seehly even before the war started In ht the safried revise his plan multiple times in this war?”
“Well, that’s…”
Milton tried to speak hu she said was the truth
“Whoo… In fact, it’s all because of you that I was able to devour the Western region so boldly”
“Because of ht”
Queen Leila leaned against Milton’s shoulder as she gave hi under the preht not be a lot, as long as the renowned general Milton Forres is leading it, it’ll be enough to deter the enemy So…”
