Useful Information

… The sunshine at dawn was very beautiful.

Even if I continue seeing it for days, I wont get bored.

I do not know how many days I kept watching it, since I have not counted it yet.

It is a great thing to be in the kingdom.

You can give instructions directly and immediately to the people in the field which you want to send instructions to.

The main offices are in the kingdom, and being myself here allows me to get information in real time, so it is painful itching to know that when I go back to the territory I wont have these.

Sebas, Moneda and the officers seemed to be starting to move all together as instructed.

Every few days, I received reports, questions and suggestions to the plan.

In response to that, I issue additional instructions to others.

Tanya came into the office.

Worried, having an expression that said to give attention to what she wants to say.

“Lady, the night is a time for resting, I understand that this is a serious situation, but if the lady collapses, there are neither the former nor the child, please go to bed I’ll wake you up early so you can finish it. ” (TL: Neither the former nor the child, is a urban slang, same meaning as.. you’ll end with neither the cake nor the bread.)

“If this case ends, I will take a good rest … So, Tanya. What is your report from the territory?”

“We have not received it yet”

“That’s good… I still have time until the appointed time, I’ll go to bed for an hour. Please wake me up after an hour.”

“Okay”

I lay on a couch in the office.

It is not flashy, but in this room surrounded by quality furnishings it appears elegant.

The room is far from the office, so having to go to the room for a nap of an hour is a waste of time.

She wants me to sleep well and comfortably in the room so Tanya had a complex expression about my decision.

After an hour exactly, Tanya came to wake me up.

“… Did we get a new report?”

“For now, there is no news”

“Okay … That made me remember, Tanya, did you have any news from Rafshimonds priest?”

“No, there is no news from him and there isn’t any event that caught my attention there, as if the situation has not changed, he seems to be deterring their actions”

“Okay … What about the progress on the investigation about Earl Rubens?”

“… I’m sorry, but there is still nothing of importance yet”

“Yeah … if you manage to find something we could make use of that as cause to abandon the engagement from Mimosa’s side, continue to investigate.”

After all I wonder if there is anything we can do about Earl Rubens. Even if we take the last resort, we wouldn’t have to worry if we knew the enemy, so the first thing we need is to have enough information.

Since the name of his house was in the list that Bern and Tanya came with after investigating these events, if this case comes to light and his crime is charged, Mimosa would be free from the engagement.

“Of course.”

“Thank you … I will prepare all you would need for this.”

“Okay”

Today I have to go see the Count of Sagitaria.

I also wrote a letter to Mr. w.a.n.g for reporting about the banknotes to the royal family.

After that, I talked to my father about all the events happening and the information I got without leaving anything out.

On the other hand, my father only said “Well done …” to all this, probably he already knew.

I guessed that any further details for him wouldn’t be needed.

Because, after that, my father’s condition got worse.

He caught a cold.

Originally seriously injured … the resistance against bacteria has decreased.

There is a high fever, the cough does not stop … it’s possibly he’s suffering from pneumonia.

It was almost impossible for me to speak with him anymore.

Father was saying “See Count Sagitaria”, but he breathed with a lot of difficulty while speaking.

That’s why I’m now being shaken by a horse-drawn carriage while going to meet the Count Sagitaria.

“…… It is exquisite your dress, have you arrived by yourself?”

“Thanks for the compliments, so what kind of countermeasures does the Count of Sagitaria plan to take?”

“… I do not have anything planned”

“Please speak. What is it?”

He had a strange expression as if hiding something.

“To be precise, I will deposit reliable personnel to Prince Alfred.”

“Oh well … is that Prince Alfred already knows the situation?”

“Since it is you Iris, I’ll be honest, it was not us that noticed this situation, but it was Prince Alfred, who already moved to solve this prior to all of us, but still… he said that we’ll not make it in time … ”

That prediction from the first prince is certainly true.

Partly because the coins have already been distributed.

The current state is the same as fire already fired on a grenade.

After that, how big the explosion … how you can keep the damage to a minimum is a game.

“Baroness Yuri has stood as the Second Prince faction head, and she continues to draw in the sons of the n.o.bility of this country one by one. But if we show any movement, they will reveal to the people that fake coins are mixed in the gold coins circulating, and confusion will occur at that moment. The country will become chaotic. ”

“To the enemy, there is always a fine day” (TL: meaning there is always an opportunity to strike them)

At my words, the count of Sagitaria smiled softly.

“You are much like Mary”

“Why that so suddenly….”

“While falling into such a situation, I am feeling lost while you’re filled with strength and fighting spirit.”

Certainly, when I imagine Divan, my heart glows with fever.

It’s fiercely hot, I do not want to lose … I want to beat him.

My feelings of desire of winning are as fierce as the love for my territory.

“As you noticed, this country is currently in a very difficult situation, and furthermore the problem is that Prince Alfred is now outside of the country”

“Mr. w.a.n.g, what is he doing? why on earth send the first prince overseas …?”

“Mr. w.a.n.g, did it, because of what you already know, the King has long not been seen, the situation in the royal palace is still a situation where the second prince is winning”

“If that is the case, if the last hope of this country is the first prince, then Mr. w.a.n.g temporarily evacuated the first prince to another country … for security?”

“Mr. w.a.n.g has not stated me the reasons, but probably is that… it was decided at the time your father was attacked.”

“Indeed … He is the last hope…”

Certainly, it has already become unavoidable.

“Although the first prince was initially rejecting this proposition, Mr. w.a.n.g said something and eventually he left… … In my opinion, It is also a great opportunity to remove the pus in the country. The first prince must beat the second prince faction thoroughly in order to be king, he gets away from the kingdom temporarily, lets the second prince faction run wildly and when they show themselves, we remove them. But if the first prince eventually loses, there are neither father nor children, but … In a sense, I believe his plan will succeed. ”

“And my father?”

In other words, my father knew the whole thing.

…… It would be nice if he told me.

In that case, I could have devised measures for the territory.

No … father may have been afraid of that I move and something happens to me.

If I devise countermeasures and get in their ways, the “pus” will attack me.

…… However, I do not have the option of being afraid of it.

I do not know how deep will this country sink until the second prince faction shows themselves, but if I can protect the territory and the people with my head, I will do it.

“Thank you very much for the valuable information, and Count Sagitaria you will return to the territory if this season is over not”

“Yeah”

“Even one more a.s.surance is something, it is better to have a less confused country. I am looking forward to hearing about your actions in the distant Duke Almeria’s territory.”

“This has also become a big homework”

The Count Sagitaria was laughing, but I scolded him inside. This is really big trouble.
