1527 War and Peace, Part 65 - Continental Peace Conference 7 -

Diore seems to have caught on to some of Muse's questioning. Muse hit Diore with his concerns since the beginning.

I'd like to ask you about the appearance of the Demon King on the border.

"You know what? I was wondering if you could ask me more specific questions."

"Has the Demon King ever appeared more frequently than before? It was also at a time when you tried to return or shortly after you decided to return. And only when I return."

The intent of Muse's question was also known to Aerial. And knowing the intent of Muse's question, Diore put his arms around him with a difficult face and sat deeply in the chair.

"... honestly, I've never calculated the exact frequency. But don't get that impression. Though cases vary with massive demons, demon kings, or barbarian rebellions. In the last 50 years or so, I have never relaxed slowly in my mansion. I wonder if that has anything to do with Princess Muse?

"It may not be directly. Instead, it is desirable for us, Ediod, that the national power of your country, Alexandria, be sharpened. But things are different now.

Who is pleased that Lord Diore nails the border and that Alexandria's national power is diminished? Has Lord Diore recently considered a strategy by expanding maps outside his own country and borders?

"No... you don't"

Muse let him get out the luggage he was bringing to Aerial. There is a map of the eastern part of the continent.

"The southbound by Romansland's five roads is in this direction - the most easterly southbound road directly in crisis stopped with the operation of mercenaries by the Northern Commercial Union, but once consolidated there, with hundreds of thousands of armies, it is not so easily pulled out. Therefore, I do not think we will go south on the same path in the future, but then what will we do?

One piece of information points to the possibility of going through the dragon's nest. And the other way I think about it is to go further east, drop your country, Alexandria, and then go south. "

"... I see, because Alexandria does have an inviolability treaty with its neighbours, armaments around the border would be very easy if dismantling were to proceed and go south.

But the problem is dropping us Alexandria at the heart. No matter how much power we have on the perimeter, our country won't fall easily? Besides, there is a conflict zone between Romansland and us. I think it's going to take a lot of time to break through. "

"What if it isn't? What if we're ready to barely make it through the conflict zone?

Muse adds writing to the map.

"This country has already been confirmed doomed. Besides, as a result of the conflict here, the border was left as a buffer zone... which is now left as a barren zone because of the emergence of numerous demons. There is also information that the Demon King may have emerged, but you will not be mistaken because you have control of the demons. Same here -"

- Wait, no way.

"Is it connected to a straight line?

Even the escort's aerial shouted a surprise. The part where Muse slanted was stretching almost in a straight line, just pointing the conflict zone towards Alexandria. Between Alexandria and the slope, there is only a few more moments.

Muse saw Diore again.

"If it's Alexandria's information network, there's no way you don't know about this extent, did Lord Diore know about this?

"... no, I didn't know. I mean, what the princess is trying to say."

"Yeah, in the middle of Alexandria, you could think of a black magician's hand already eating in. Lord Diore was fought on the border - no, even that fight may no longer have been orchestrated, but it could be deadly for the country any more.

If anything were to happen to Alexandria, the countries of the east would not have the skill to just resist. The fact that disarmament has progressed at the annual Continental Peace Conference may be a vendetta "

"Who else is aware of this?

"I haven't told anyone yet. Because I don't know who I can trust."

To the words of Muse, Diore thought often. Silence visits the room.

"- Princess Muse. Excuse me, do you gain anything by telling me about this?

"It's not without profit, but we can't overlook that it involves the survival of our country as a princess's responsibility"

"Then I'll trust you, but honestly, our country is hard on people."

"What is the Knight's Country Talent Difficulty?

Muse thought she had heard strange words and inquired unexpectedly. Alexandria is the country where the strongest samurai gather. It is not considered ambitious, but there is no way to calm the neighbouring countries, assuming that they are willing. If the times were the times, it was so powerful that it was thought that three minutes under heaven would be possible with Romansland and Gruzaldo. Muse has taught that from a young age as well.

But...
