A clean beauty steps into a small room about 10 meters in all directions.

It was one of the dining rooms in the Royal Palace for royalty to use for private dining. This time, I use it for luncheon.

The walls of pure white are hung with portraits of historical kings, and the magical light distributed everywhere lights the whole room pale and elegant.

A rectangular dinner table placed in the centre of the room was topped with a silk tablecloth on which numerous silver dishes were already available.

Luxurious, rugged, beautiful sights.

But in front of Valtrude, everything becomes sumptuous.

The girl, dressed gracefully in a sapphire blue long dress, looked rather more adult than usual with thin makeup.

In addition to its usual glowing beauty, Valtrude can even feel a hint of colour in the light of pale magic.

Meanwhile, Yut, his usual robe was undressed and he was coming to luncheon with a stuffed collar uniform. Sure, there won't be two costumes in this Brewers, but pushing it through as a courtesy seems improbable.

He is reopening because he is a student.

"Earlier, it was quite fun"

"Hi, I've been feeling dull lately."

"I can't lose this, either."

Prince Alsace, who welcomed Valtrude in his seat, laughed casually and recommended his seat to his guests.

Wearing a satin doublet and smiling softly, he is exactly like a picturesque prince.

We both sat back slowly, waiting for our squire to pull the stool. Courtesy around here has already been acquired because I had several invitations to places like this before I was awarded the title.

"The dress suits you very well."

Like a lady's sample, Eudit greets carefully and deeply.

Until this point, it was a facial rash that we met together earlier at the squad yard, but there was one new person.

"Long time no see."

Dieter Shakel, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Rotosilt.

A magnificent man with all his hair behind him and a stern face. Rather than politicians and bureaucrats, knights. No, you look like a soldier.

It should be beyond confusion, but your body is tight and your eyes sharp. However, he seemed to avoid looking directly at Valtrude.

It will have to stop. If we don't, we can't talk properly.

Yut and Valtrude, who had not been informed of their seats, showed confusion, but exchanged greetings without difficulty and did not hit badly.

On the surface it had a soothing atmosphere and the meeting began.

"Is Claude useful?

Not even knowing such Yut's vigilance, Prince Alsace, with his wine glass in one hand, asks like a public tale.

"I can't let go anymore."

The question was answered by Yut, the prime party.

It is unacceptable, such as Yut responding, who would otherwise be nothing more than a servant of Valtrude, except Yut, the Great Mage.

In the meantime, grilled quiche or seafood with cheese. In addition, it will be arranged on the tabletop up to stewed beef wine and dessert peach compotes.

The Brewers do not yet have the concept of course cooking. That's why the food is being brought in more and more first.

"Even today, without Claude, we wouldn't have been here."

"Good morning, Master Alsace."

"Oh, I'm relieved too. I hear the development of the realm is going well."

He was the prince who smiled at his fiancée's words, but quickly clouds the look on his face.

"But that's a thought, too. Hey, there's gonna be a cross spear in there."

"Horizontal spear...... is it?

Stop the hand of the meal and Yut listens back.

"Oh. Until the realm stabilized. I was planning to exempt myself, and there's talk of imposing military roles."

In the Kingdom of Rotosilt no taxes are levied on the nobles. Of course, if you are doing business as a side business, that is not the case.

Instead, it's the military.

In the Rotosilt kingdom, which is at war with the Verga Empire across the northern tower wall, it has become an important duty of the nobility.

Naturally, too.

The defeat to the Verga Empire, where the sub-god Verga, a mixture of demon kings and men, holds absolute power as emperor and is spiked with sub-races with evil ministers, starting with goblins and orgasms, can only be more painful than death or death.

"To those of us who don't even exist a ministerial corps, military service, etc. I don't think it's sane."

"That's how much I know about women, too. What are you going to do?

Leaving aside Eudit's words, Eudit confirmed to Prince Alsace.

"Is that money?

"Sounds like that..."

Prince Alsace discards in a grumpy manner. It was unusual for a prince like this, who came out of a picture book.

Everybody stop eating and focus on talking.

First, Yut glanced at the Chancellor, Dieter Shakel, who is present. What does the Prime Minister, the head of the national government, think?

"Even when it comes to the Chancellor, he only has the same power as his son-in-law."

In a tone that would be good to say is disgusting, Dieter Shakel mocks herself.

I'm not looking down at Valtrude. I guess this is his vegetable because it is a statement in the presence of Prince Alsace as well.

"Is the thrust from the aristocracy that big?

"Though it's not uncommon, the boardstick so far..."

The Count Istas are in the military - they can't get out, so they pay the money instead. If we do that, we'll be desperate because we'll be less burdened.

In common sense, rebellion is imperative if we are to put military service or something like that on a new territory under development. Moreover, the kingdom must receive that objection. It's the kingdom that collects taxes.

There was also a push from several chambers of commerce that missed the right to development in Count Istas territory while being distracted by the demand for reconstruction in the Wang capital.

There are certain deals via the Chamber of Commerce in Hardenturm, but there is dissatisfaction with indirect involvement.

Poor lottery makes the Chancellor want to hold his head.

I didn't sympathize with that, but Yut agreed without incident.

"Regarding that, I am prepared to respond"

Everyone and he - even Eudit - pay unexpected attention to Yut.

The only exception is Valtrude.

Of course, because I was consulting beforehand...... not. If you mean you can yut, you must be. I just believe it.

"Worth 20,000 gold coins a year. However, in the storage."

"Hmm..."

"So, won't it go beyond tax revenues?

Eudit stumbles and asks, but Eudit flirted lightly.

"Well, I'd really like to take it next year."

"What does storage mean?

At an unexpected pace, Prince Alsace speaks out his doubts.

Perhaps, but Prince Alsace should not be involved in this matter. It's awkward to be seen putting it on one of your shoulders. However, Valtroude was summoned in the name of training the sword in order to deliver it in peace. Maybe there was a request from the Prime Minister.

At least that's what Yut understands, and he wasn't even corrected for that by the other side.

"I make magic equipment (magic items) and I'll give it to you. So, it's pretty good."

"I see..."

Dieter Shakel leaks a whine.

In his head, the Abacus was played with fierce momentum.

It is best to be paid in cash now that we also lack a budget for the restoration of Wang Du. But as a second best friend, the suggestion from Yut is not bad.

As a reward, as a substantial strength enhancement, magic equipment is essential. Besides, you can assume that the failure to specify a type means that you will be able to hear the request here to some extent.

And the Yuts have their benefits, too.

Magic fixtures are expensive, but the actual cost is about half of the actual selling price.

At the very least, it is not abusive because the labor costs of magic users in the Warrotsk class have been held for more than a dozen days, and it is not a fair price because there is a combination of demand and supply.

But if you can even ignore that labor cost, the same goes for halving the tax.

"I see, is that fair?"

The Chancellor praised honestly that it was a clever thing to think about.

"Later, let's give a swing of the Devil's Sword. Of course not."

Plus, I was impressed with being ready, and I notice the discomfort.

Now the benefits on the kingdom side are too great. The nobles' demands were met and they also earned an unwanted income. As the Earl of Istas, even though it's practically half the price, it's because he's been charged with military service that should have been exempt for a few years.

"What can I say instead...... I have one request"

"Let's hear it."

Dieter Shakel figured out if he was still here.

Already, neither Prince Alsace nor Valtrude, who is supposed to be their superior, are trying to pinch the beak. Eudit alone must be cautious, though both Yut and the Chancellor are cautious.

"Chronica, I want you to allow me to trade with the Divine Kingdom"

"I can't say for sure on this occasion"

Mainz and the Kingdom of God separate the mountains, but as long as they cross the mountains, they are closer than Hardenturm. There was also a desire to increase the number of export routes for Glass Iron (Crystal Iron), but there was also a desire to create routes that would allow food to be secured just in case.

"Then make a decision as soon as you can."

If that's not acceptable, Valtrude says otherwise.

"... do the best you can"

Even as Prime Minister, I have nothing else to say.

Anyway, I have to tell you one more thing.

"Trouble? That's your first ear."

In his words, Prince Alsace urged the Chancellor to follow by whispering an elegant eyebrow.

"The Baldur Border Uncle is challenging the rebirth of the Count Istas"

The Baldur Border House, a great nobleman bound to the west of the Rotosilt kingdom.

In the sense that we are able to concentrate on the northern front because we are suppressing the western borders, the contribution is significant.

"Why?

"I am dowry from the Baldur Borderline Uncle family to the Earl of Istas house seven generations ago. He therefore claims that he has the right to inherit if he is to rebuild"

I also have about a tow club.

But it was also the aristocratic society that made it a big name for itself.

"Is it also required for the transfer of territory?

"No, they don't want land because it's going to be an enclave"

"Instead, they demand payment of 100,000 gold coins as a price to renounce"

"100,000 gold coins!?"

I guess you just don't mean it.

Still, the impossibility of wearing your own position in Kasashi. The transgression that if you pay, you won't admit it as a member of the nobility.

Completely licked.

Valtrude is the Virgin. Merciful, noble and just.

At the same time, however, he was a diocesan knight (paladin) and an adventurer.

"Yut, let's go home"

"What are you going to do?

"Collect soldiers with 100,000 of those gold coins. Too bad we don't have Exile or Larsia, but we'll be able to put a piece on it alone"

"Okay."

If Valtrude says so, there is no denying it. I don't want to wage war or anything, no matter what the situation is, but, well, you can take back what you used.

And there are also a number of aristocratic territories between the counts of Istas and the Baldur border lords, but there are as many ways as there are.

For example, the sky does not belong to anyone.

"Wait!"

It is the Prime Minister who panics.

With so much momentum that what usually knows him is taken aback, he retains the Lord Count Istas. I can't wait to read the seriousness to the Lord who speaks of the opening of the war without precautions.

"Unless it was three months ago, I'm not willing to return the territory. The inhabitants of that land are our people."

But before Valtrude's harshness, it was only a wasted effort. Dresses go hand in hand, overwhelming those responsible for national politics with violent beauty.

"First, let's discuss..."

"So you're dropping the demands? We don't want to pay for a piece of copper."

"That's true..."

Civil unrest.

It's not treason against the royal family, but it can't be tolerated at all. The Chancellor is trapped in despair in a crisis that has begun to become apparently realistic.

The Rothschild royal family is only the nobleman with the vastest territory and greatest military power in the Rothschild kingdom, if polarized.

The strength of kingship is very different from that of the Empress of the Verga Empire, close to dictatorship.

Even if warnings can be given and sanctions imposed, they cannot be forced to comply.

How did this happen?

Dieter Shakel distressed as if she were a victim.

In other words, I hadn't exactly figured it out yet, even over this period.

For the Valtrudes, we do not need the Rotosilt kingdom.

the fact that the Kingdom of Rotosilt needs the territory of Count Istas.

"How about a duel?

There, an angelic girl whispered in devilish sweet words.

"It should have been in national law. When there is no agreement in the discussion and the claim is in conflict, decide the female male in the divine duel."

"I know you, Eudit."

"Of course it will be Alsace's wife."

You're embarrassed while I tell you myself, I lay down with my face in bright red.

"If it can be delivered round, this is fine."

Yut tapped Valtrude's shoulder lightly and sent him back to his seat.

If it were, it would be a case for the Kingdom to open a trial and issue a verdict. However, there is no such thing as a mutually satisfactory verdict in this world. From the point of view of the Yuts, as I have already said, there is no reason to pay even one piece of copper coin.

On the other hand, they're looking at this one because they're looking at the growth and underfoot of the new girlfriend.

Then settle between the parties. But I'm sorry about the civil war - and I don't know the logic.

(To Eudit, I wonder if he got laid...)

Yut sighs only in his heart.

But in the next moment, I came to a slightly overly positive conclusion.

It won't be a problem.

Anyway, we have the most powerful goddess of victory.
