984 Those who travel our way, part 24 - those who are loyally thick ③ -

"Good, you're the only ones who can handle the most worrying things."

"Like I said, are you going somewhere?

"Um, I'm only going to do what I can"

Diore is sometimes in the castle as commander of the three armies, sometimes leading the way and sometimes specializing in the battle of the phantom freedom that moves as a parade. Some of them were covert. There is also an anecdote in which Diore, who is supposed to be fighting on the border, suddenly attended a central meeting, which surprised the king and his surroundings.

I thought that was such an action this time too, but Diore's words were even exceeding their expectations.

"I'm going to use this winter to look all the way around the eastern part of the continent. Some of them want to meet in person, and some countries and groups want to see them. Before the Continental Peace Conference, which coincides with Arnelia's 400th Anniversary Festival, it will be necessary to make arrangements"

"Is...? What do you mean," planted "?

"I'm going to explore what Miriazal is thinking. Depending on that, our king will also need a petition. If we don't predetermine our country's position, it could be a very bad thing.

Plus, I want to explore the mercenary regiment of famous places. Their forces can't be fooled. If we do it badly, we can't even dictate the war. I'm going to look into their perception of the current situation and how they shake themselves.

And then there's the Deal Alliance Federation to the east. You know what, Burlington?

"No, I..."

Turning to Burlington, who said the answer, Ivanzardo continues.

"I heard the allies have changed recently. They take a peculiar form of politics and elect, every few years, the person they say is the Alliance Leader by a vote of Parliament. Parliament has a strong say in everything it does, and the classification of nobility has one-on-one voting rights with Members elected by the people, and its numbers are equally adjusted." Election, "did they call it? I thought it might be a very interesting country, where the masses are directly involved in the way the country is.

The leader of the alliance is currently a woman. "

"Yes, the woman who suppressed the leading candidate and became the ally. You've already investigated, Ivanzardo."

"I'm going to be grasping the movement in the world... is there something odd about it?

"It's my guess. Strongly, there's nothing too strange about it. It's creepy."

Diore said. A woman who was a local lord of Deal - Shane Sereno quickly captured the hearts and minds of people with a somewhat extraordinary political and mentoring ability to enter central politics. I don't mind women becoming allies. Named as queens are Ediod's muses and, more recently, Krums' Ray fans, and the women's leaders themselves are strange or irrelevant.

But it's too soon to grasp power. Only three years after Shane Sereno entered politics. Where were the funds, knowledge and technology for that activity stored? Why did local lords suddenly come out into politics? And Deal, led by her, has made his own alliance with the nations around him, and he's moving secretly.

Diore said he didn't see any reason to make such an alliance at this time of year.

"If it were conceivable, I would be willing to put some agenda out at the next Continental Peace Conference. I just don't see what I'm going to hit out in any way at all. It's creepy, I don't even know what they think. We just want to avoid our country being swallowed by its invisible turbulence."

"I see, that may be more derivative than I thought. But that's all the information we've gathered."

"I also have about my own information network. Who do you think grew the dark areas you guys use?

"Here we go."

Dunverg was frightened as Burlington lowered his head slightly upward and deeply. Because of this kind of reclining, I don't think I can safely leave it to myself, etc. Burlington has a hard time figuring out how far he's serious and where he's from.

But Diore, too, aside from that, turned the Ivanzard around and added another word.

"That's the thing, Ivanzardo. It's also a thought to move too much. Keep your shackles on, okay? If you grind your nails too much, you'll find it hard to miss them."

"... ha. In memory of the liver."

"Fine. You are hereby ordered to act as my squire. It'll be a good experience for you too. I'll have you with me."

"What? Am I to Lady Diore's squire?

"Disgruntled?"

"No, never like that"

"Then do your duty immediately. A moment later, we leave this fort. The soldier leaves it with his deputy, so that detailed instructions can be given to Burlington. Hurry up."

"Ha ha."

Ivanzard left the scene in a hurry. Diore stared at his back as he left, but Danverg questioned him when he confirmed that the signs had completely disappeared.

"Dear Diore, what the hell were you talking to him about?

"I'm the one who called it in. Thanks. His men seem to be moving very hard out of the country, so I thought I'd flatter them. Poor performance can also lead to interference in internal affairs. It could be the next Continental Peace Conference to give neighboring countries the critical material to dress up."

"Wasn't it dangerous to give him the authority to move Nights of Nights? They can move in quarters with the head of the three armies and His Royal Highness, but lately he has surrounded certain knights and trained himself. I thought it was a dangerous move that the generals had never made before."

"But he's good. The same goes for what I did when I stood on the arrow as a general, but I am good at anticipating crises ahead of time and hitting the forefront. You guys have a lot of military skills in the field, but you can't run politically. But it's the same for me."

Diore laughed bitterly and they both imitated it. If Diore is told he can't make a political run for it, then no one in this country will be able to.

"Well, now you're in the shape we just interrupted."

"I said what I had to say, but I offered to accompany Ivanzard in an attempt to explore his belly a little. Besides, if you're going to spy outside the country, traveling around the country will be his study as well. Wouldn't it be easier for you guys to do something without him?

"This... you took one. Then let me do it in full while he's gone. I guess I'll just mess around a little bit with the force maps within the military. Then I'm going to be busy, so excuse me for this."

Burlington just left the spot, to say the least. Apparently, he has something in his chest. The remaining Dunverg spoke softly to Diore.
