Both Byron's men and my maid.

After all the gold in the box left the room, me and Byron left.

We faced each other again.

Byron coughed one up - his expression changed.

I got a different face than I just did.

"To Your Highness... I'd like to ask you a favor"

"Hmm? What?"

It's about Cindy.

"What's wrong with her?

Besides, what's this look on Byron's face?

I've never seen his face like this before, what is it?

"I've been thinking about my wife."

"I see. But Cindy is this year..."

"It will be 19"

"Uhm, you did"

I was 10 when we met.

In my four older years - well, it's been almost 10 years since we met.

"It's time to go late, and I hope they grew up smart, but for that matter they..."

Bitter laugh, sigh Byron.

Cindy is the woman Byron found and adopted.

I hope I grew up smart, but so it's complicated in my chest as an adoptive father to be late.

"Sure, it's not nice to hear you're not married to a 20-year-old."

"Yes. As for... I was wondering if you could introduce me to Your Highness"

"To me?... I see."

I totally get the story.

It's not uncommon for a master to mediate a subordinate's marriage, no, it's more natural.

Cindy's smart, she's a worker, and I've lost track of her, but she still has to do with my mentions.

Byron is my man, or Cindy, practically my family.

I mean, I'm also close to my father to Cindy.

I was with my daughter when she was late.

"But...... hmm"

"Something"

"It's a hard story. Cindy's talent is spared. That's the top class of people who follow me. It's a shame I had to give it to another man."

"Rate me by then...... thank you"

If Cindy was good at business, I would have turned it into a side room.

The same thing as using a coroner in a mansion doesn't let the front room out of the basics - it doesn't let you make contact with other guys.

Keeping the talent Cindy inside the house is too much waste.

"Think carefully about the candidates. She wants to leave the corner of the enclosure to the Governor sooner or later. You can't be half-man."

"Eh!

Byron raised his voice and looked out.

"What's the matter? Be so surprised"

"Oh, is that the Governor? Wasn't the woman's governor unprecedented...?

"Unheard of, but I can't decide no. I'm just not here."

It is properly decided by the internal law of the palace introspection that the emperor or the royal family attaches a eunuch to the main chamber and keeps it away from other men.

In comparison, only "somehow" do senior officials have no women.

Somehow, there's no reason to obey or stick to it.

"People are treasures. Women make up half of all subjects in the first place. Women are nearly double talented compared to men alone. It's a waste of pretending not to look."

"That's great, I didn't even get that idea"

Anyway, I'll take care of Cindy.

"Yes! Thank you!

The next day, after noon or so, suddenly the eunuch came and summoned me to the royal palace.

Go to the royal palace and see His Majesty in the study.

Once upon a time, the sheriff of this study replaced all his ears and tongues with a man who had crushed his tongue.

In that study, I bow my head on one knee to His Majesty.

"We have responded to your summons. What can I do for you today?"

"Well done Noah, give me your face. I thought I'd ask your opinion before I open it up in the morning."

"Yes... what is it?"

"In the west, Kurge's Galwan moved"

"What the hell!?

I felt the shock of being hit in the head.

Kurge's Gale One.

Kruge is the name of religion, and Galwan is the name of the supreme leader there for generations.

Gale One is inherited in the form of "reincarnation" and immediately after the fall of the previous Gale One, a new Gale One is nominated in some way.

Gale One now is Gale One VI.

Someone known to be quite an ambitious man.

"Is it a revolt?"

"That would be the only way. Besides, there's a move to send a messenger to Turbaif"

"... I see"

I could see my face getting serious myself.

Trubaif is an imperial kingdom to the west, and it's not strange to betray this again whenever there's a disturbing movement going on.

"What would you do, Noah?"

Staring at me, Your Majesty.

Those eyes - I think they're kind of trying, but things are going on, I guess it's my fault.

I thought about it.

"Are you sure of the Kurge movement"

"Oh, that's for sure. The messenger hasn't left yet."

His Majesty ran out of words.

To date, I am experiencing the awesomeness of His Majesty's ears and eyes, I thought there would be no doubt about this prerequisite.

Then.

"... we should send out soldiers now. Moving to an electrolithic fire, beating Kruge first"

"Electrolite fire, huh?

"Yes, and at the same time lay down a strict attitude and stop the messenger before he reaches Truvife."

"Why would you do that?

"As a major premise, I was wondering if Operation Two Fronts should be avoided. If Truvife gets on board, the crusade itself will be a trick, and the aftermath will be tough. But if the messenger hasn't arrived in the first place..."

"... Truvife knew nothing, so he could push through"

"You're right. Tourbaif will eventually have to do something about it, but now I first wonder if we should narrow the target of the crusade"

"I see. Um, good to hear Noah's opinion. You're always amazing."

"I'm afraid."

Apparently, they liked the opinion.

"Because of this, Noah, why don't you go"

"Am I?

Me with my neck.

"Mm-hmm. It's a Kurge crusade."

"Brother Henry, I was wondering if it would be more appropriate."

I answered instantly.

I answered without getting lost at all.

"Henry did? Why"

"Of the princes, only my brother has actually led soldiers. Besides, my brother's knight, Rice Cake, is good at soldiering. So I think my brother is the right man."

At once, His Majesty was astonished to see why.

After the surprise lasted for more than a dozen seconds, His Majesty heard more with his neck hanging.

"Didn't you get pretty strong, too? I hear the knights are growing up too."

"Ours is martial arts."

I answered, staring at His Majesty, completely unwavering.

"I don't know if it's a good idea to lead a soldier, and I don't have any experience. This time, the load has won too much."

"I see..."

His Majesty is right, bending over, whining as he strokes his white beard.

"Few people used to be able to do the same thing after gaining power, even if they could do it"

"Losing but winning... do you mean the words and deeds are consistent and natural"

The grunt gradually dwindled, and the last one couldn't hear at all what he was saying.

Did I say something wrong?

No, that shouldn't happen.

Even if it didn't work, it was in line with my policy.

Waiting for His Majesty to shake his chest is a muscle.

I stared at His Majesty and waited for the next word.

After a while, His Majesty raised his face.

The face was like a praised - satisfied face.

"You're amazing, Noah."

"It's a pleasure."

I don't know what I was praised for, but I should be honored to receive that His Majesty's gift would be a poison for self-harm, by analogy.

A compliment or something.

"Okay, then I'll consult with the prime ministers in that direction. Well opinionated, keep it up, Noah."

"Ha."

His Majesty seemed satisfied, so I decided this was a good idea for now.
