The Strategist Knows Everything

We were waiting for Knox when we got to King's Landing. It was a standby order.

At the Royal Castle, Kaguya, the council, and the ministers seem to be in the middle of a meeting.

But.

"How long have you been waiting?

"It should be conveyed that we have received Dear Dio's intentions. You won't wait forever, but you know we should help Master Yukito, so I think people who don't like that will come around a lot."

Nicolas' sister replies to Ars' old man's grunt.

Hearing it, Ars's old man clasped his shoulders and sat in a chair like a mess.

"Hey, I mean, are we being jammed?

"Right. I have no doubt that there are people who keep us troop leaders away from our men and keep them waiting in this room. Probably someone in the minister. However, the fact that orders are coming is that Kaguya agrees with them at once."

"There's a lot of surveillance outside under the name of an escort. Well, it's more of a quarantine than a standby."

Erica's sister, who was looking out the window, said that in a light tone.

I can count on you not to show any haste at all, but Erica's sister has a personality that doesn't show interest in what doesn't matter, and maybe she just doesn't show interest in this situation.

If you look at Mikana, he's sighing. I don't think it's too dangerous.

"Hey, Nicola's sister. There's nothing you can do about it?

Nicola's sister is the one who counts the most on me at times like this.

In the absence of Yukito's brother, it is generally Nicola's sister who thinks of the operation and gives instructions.

Of our troop leaders, only Nicola's sister can replace Yukito's brother because he is the only one close to Yukito's brother.

"I wonder if it's difficult. The problem is that the order is officially coming. If you break the order, we're the bad ones, and if you violate the order, you can't complain about being captured."

"If we get caught violating orders, it's gonna make things worse, right? I don't like it, but I have to stay still."

Ars's old man says so and puts his weight on the back of the chair.

Erica's sister also sat back in her chair and began to relax.

Seriously, there's no hitter.

"Mikana. In the meantime, there's nothing you can do about it. As it is, we can conclude that we are not going to help Yukito's brother, right?

"Our identity now is that of Knox's troop leader. If things go wrong here, it will affect my people...... If we were alone, we could choose not to go to the royal castle, but now, if we do it, we would be sinners and Knox would be dismantled. And the wind will be stronger to Yukito-sama, who trained such a subordinate..."

It's not just about us.

Is that the biggest problem?

If Velis decides not to help Yukito's brother, Me and Mikana get out of the Velis army and go to Albion.

But that's only a story since I became an individual, and I still have to think about my men more than being Knox's troop leader. Besides, if he gets caught, Yukito's brother won't be able to help either.

Do I have to suppress my feelings and wait after all?

He thought so, and when he let his face fall down, he heard a voice from the window.

"You're lining up your creepy faces."

There was a guy who came into the room through the window.

He was a small stature guy. Sure, it's a secret I was beside Yukito's brother.

You talk like a man, you dress like a man, but you say you're a woman.

"Ren!? Why are you here!?

Nicola's sister calls the woman's name.

Speaking of which, you used to talk to Nicola's sister a lot.

"Wow, Nicolas. You look good."

"Oh, yeah. Ren's looking good, too."

"Say hello like that. Is the situation? Ren. Is something wrong?

Mikana, paralyzed by Nicola's sister's response, asks Ren for an errand.

"Something happened. I mean, you guys are the parties. Here, read this."

Ren showed a piece of paper to Mikana.

Micana looked surprised at first, but her complexion began to change as she proceeded to read.

"This is……"

"Hey, Mikana. What does it say?

"… This is a standby order to Knox. But this doesn't have Kaguya's authorization."

"No!? So the orders to us............ disguise!?

I can't talk about it.

What the hell does that mean?

You guessed my insides, Mikana starts explaining.

"Okay? We at Knox are special forces that were able to report directly to the Commander-in-Chief of the Army. It is His Majesty the King, or his commander-in-chief. And now the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Army is in the form of a concurrent appointment by Master Kaguya. So if you want to give us orders, we need Kaguya's authorization."

"You mean there's no such thing. You minister bastards, do whatever you want!

"I have another problem. His Majesty the King has not been informed that Knox is in the king's capital. That's why I was able to imitate it."

"Is that also the work of the ministers?

"It's the work of the minister and the council. So, what do we do? As far as I'm concerned, I need my husband to come back to Velis, so I need you guys to move."

Ars' old man smiled when he heard Ren's words.

Erica's sister is wearing the coat she was taking off and is starting to get ready to go outside.

"If the orders are disguised, you don't have to obey anything else, do you?

"With that order, if you show it to Master Kaguya, the situation will be in our favor, right?

Both Ars's old man and Erica's sister are motivated.

I turn my gaze to Nicola's sister.

"Hey, Nicola's sister. We didn't have to wait, and we grabbed the enemy's weakness. And what are we supposed to do?

"The rest is easy. Just go see Master Kaguya. I think it's boring because you don't know any escorts or royal castle guards around you that your standby orders to us are disguised."

"No problem, we have to get him hurt"

Micah took charge of her own bow and said so while checking the arrows.

Our weapons have not been taken away. Because it was just a standby order. If this was a restraining order or something, the weapons would have been taken away, but the ministers shut up to Master Kaguya and couldn't get that far.

That's luck.

"Hey, Nicola's sister. I mean... you can go wild, right?

"Right. You have to get him hurt, well, whatever you do."

"I hope it's easy to understand. So let's start with the outside escort."

I don't have any grudges against the guys out there, but do you want me to stick with some of our worries?

■ ■ ■

We were locked in with a false standby order. We walked out of the room and we were near the royal castle.

What we were in earlier was the quarters where the soldiers were waiting, except for us and the escorts, who were on assignment or not.

Thanks to you, I'm glad I just did something about the escort.

"I don't know if that's too much..."

"Are you still there? You can't help worrying about what's over, can you?

Micah said there was nothing wrong with Micah, but Micah and Erica's sister had their spines frozen to beat.

No matter how much they locked themselves up, they just followed orders from above. He didn't even realize he was locking us up.

I can't believe I did such a miserable thing to those guys.

I didn't let him "get hurt," but I think he caused more trauma and pain than that.

"Maybe it will take me a while to get back on my feet………"

"Sure. That's tight………"

I agree with my words as Ars' old man looks up to me.

If they do, they won't be able to recover for the time being, no doubt.

"I just made him unable to move because of the pain. It's a treat."

"You're a woman, so you don't know that pain... So I can do such a miserable thing..."

"Because it's a steep point. I just couldn't shoot him with an arrow. I'd better cut him off."

What a horrible thing to do. This woman.

There would have been more hands.

"There's got to have been a lot of help over there, too, right? It's me and Micah. I think he was quite happy."

"Well, I don't deny it, but understand that it was an act of going from heaven to hell. Both of them. And don't ever do it again in front of us."

Als' old man advises them so with a serious face.

Micah and Erica's sister are listening lightly, saying that they will do well, or yes.

Neither of us has the color of reflection. This is why women are scared.

There were two escorts in front of the room we were in. First of all, I had to make sure those two didn't call my buddies, so I was checking the steps to stun them once and for all with me and Ars's old man.

But when the operation was troublesome, Erica's sister said it and opened the door so there was nothing going on with Micah.

It was Micah and Erica's sister who turned their arms around the neck of the two escort men to seduce me, stunned and rushed into the eyes of me and Ars's old man outside the room.

And the next moment, two knees struck out the man's steeple exactly.

This one I was looking at looked like it was going to suffocate with pain, but the guys who got hit needless to say, it seemed more painful, they were blowing bubbles and fainting.

I think Erica's sister's words about how easy it is to win a man were filled with the horrors of a creature called a woman.

I couldn't help but sympathize with the five of us outside escorts who didn't know, such as the fact that there was such a tragedy, ambushed us with a secret ren, and just passed them all out and then came near the royal castle, but every time I remembered how I had struck the first two.

He seems to have something to do with the covert ren, so he broke up, but he wasn't sympathetic or anything, and I think a woman is too indifferent to a man's pain.

"Yay, there may have been too many aspects of it that I did overdo, but now let's turn our consciousness to how we get into the royal castle! Let's do that!

Watch out for us sinking, Nicola's sister brightly changes the subject.

Ma, even if I change the subject brightly, the topic I changed is not that bright.

"It's just awkward to make a scene in front of the royal castle."

"You have the eyes of the people of the king's capital. As long as we can get inside the royal castle, even if we make some noise, we can stop the noise just inside the royal castle."

I'm not wearing a coat for Knox's squad leader right now, but I also know it's very problematic for Knox's squad leader and other military personnel serving in the country to rub in front of the Royal Castle.

Not only does it incite the anxiety of the people to mischief, but even the upset spreads to the soldiers.

That will have a huge impact on a country called Velis. I can't give up helping Yukito's brother, but I can't even do anything to make Yukito's brother's hardship a blister for that.

"Shit. Hey. Royal Castle security is tight, and sneaking in is a little unrealistic."

"Well, I guess so. I can't break into the secrets of other countries. It's not our specialty. There's no way we can do this."

"I didn't expect there would be a day to figure out how to sneak into my country's royal castle. I don't know what life is."

Ars's old man groans so emotionally.

But that statement...

"Ars's old man. Seriously, you look like an old man. That statement."

"Hmm!? Don't make fun of my profound words!

"I'm not making a fool of myself. It just sounded like he was eating old."

"I haven't eaten in years. I have a lot of experience!

"If you're experienced, could you figure out a way to infiltrate the castle?

"No, no, no, so no matter how much experience you get, you don't know life because something inexperienced comes up. It was a statement, right? Why are you asking me about inexperienced things? By and large, the person most familiar with the Royal Castle is Erica. You, right?"

Ars's old man waves to Erica's sister that way, but Erica's sister tells her as she turns her cold eyes to Ars's old man.

"It wasn't the royal castle I was in, it was the" rear palace. "Can you not remind me of something I don't like?

A gaze so cold that I think I can freeze people to death can be directed at Ars's old man.

Good.

Yukito's brother said that Erica was the queen of a small country, unofficially but treated like the sideroom of his predecessor, so he was the most expensive in Knox in his position, so why don't you use that position to get in? That's what I was saying.

I'm glad Ars's old man made me do it first. If I made a mistake, I almost bought Erica's sister's wrath, like Ars's old man.

"You suck."

"It just lacks consideration."

Micah and Nicola's sister chased after Ars' old man.

Women are scared.

"Come on…… I'm just as hurt for this treatment………"

Als's old man squeals so as he looks up at the sky. But I can't take sides. Knox's squad leader has more women. It's up to me to be on the woman's side.

Thinking about that, a carriage runs from behind. I could see at a glance that it seemed superior.

We're on the main street that leads to the Royal Castle, so it's probably the carriage of a high-ranking man in the Royal Castle.

The carriage stopped in front of us.

"What!? Split!?

"There's no way! If you don't wear a coat, it won't be that easy."

"Is it possible that I know Mikana?

"I was in the royal castle, but I don't remember making any acquaintances."

And then there's the possibility.

When I send Erica's sister a gaze, Erica's sister makes her shoulder snap and smile bitterly.

You must know me.

"Erica, Erica Furnill"

It was the blonde who came out of the carriage.

Is he about the age of the second half of twenty? Pretty pretty guy. But I feel like I've tried it somewhere.

"Dear Claire!?

Erica's sister gave her a rare and surprising look.

Micana and Nicola's sister hurriedly knelt down. Seeing that, Ars's old man also kneels.

"Er..."

"Dear Claire Arklight, Dear Mother Diorood."

"Uh, that's why you thought you looked familiar"

"Roy. I have my respect for you. In a way."

"I know I didn't praise you."

"In the meantime, get on your knees. Because he is also the parent of Kaguya's upbringing, the quicker he counts from the top in Velis, the higher he is."

Erica's sister told me that in a whisper.

So did the Micahs take the courtesy of their ministers?

If I had to do it too, Lady Claire would control it with her hands.

"Thank you very much. Raise your heads, too. More than that, why is Knox here? Though Kaguya said he was stuck at sea."

"Huh? That's a lie between the minister and the council guys! We've been in the king's capital for over half a day!

"Is that true?

Lady Claire asks Erica's sister about the veracity of my words.

"It's true. And because of the fake orders, I'm stuck."

Erica's sister says so and shows her the fake orders she had.

Dear Claire's expression turns into something dangerous.

"I see. The minister and the council, whatever they do, don't seem to want to help that young man. So, were you guys just figuring out a way to get into the royal castle?

"Exactly."

"You're lucky. For me, for you guys. Get in. If it's my carriage, I can get in without finding out."

"Are you serious!? That's Dear Dio's mother! My heart's wide open!

"Yeah, it's really broad-minded and helpful. It means Roy's neck."

Erica's sister shook her head from left to right like she was out there, sighing.

I didn't hear the last one, but joy is the one, and I don't think it's a sighing situation.

"Shall we hurry, then? The meeting had already begun when I left the castle. It's too late to come to a conclusion."

That said, Master Claire urged us.
