282 – Waiting for something new
In a huge group, there are many groups.
You may find the appearance of the group uncomfortable and unpleasant.
But it is indispensable.
Originally, people who are similar, how to get together with people who benefit each other.
If I had to choose the most representative group in this empire.
With the imperial faction, which advocates ‘absolute’ loyalty to the imperial family.
Aristocrats who want to be guaranteed the level of authority of the nobles.
Among them, the aristocracy is divided into three main factions.
And, of course, the main axis was the three grand ducal families.
Now is not the time for chaos in the empire. Of course, the three places do not quarrel.
But, knowingly or unknowingly, we are doing a little bit of checking.
Only then can a cleaner political world be maintained.
“The Grand Duke of Bayen. Are you also a story of resourcefulness here?”
Aristocrats next to Grand Duke Baien turned their heads at the grave voice.
There stood Grand Duke Schrelitz, holding a glass and smiling leisurely.
“Your Excellency the Grand Duke.”
The nobles bow their heads and step back.
Of course, Archduke Schrelitz doesn’t fit well with Archduke Bayen.
The sudden approach to this place made me curious.
“What’s wrong with a merchant talking about business?”
Excluding the imperial family, the grand duke’s family is truly the place with absolute prestige.
Nevertheless, Archduke Bayen, one of the heads of the Grand Duke’s family, calls himself a merchant.
I was talking really casually and without hesitation.
“I’m not saying anything. I just want to talk for a minute.”
“You are always welcome, as long as you don’t ask for a loan.”
At the words of Archduke Bayen, Archduke Shrelitz smiled awkwardly and said, ‘Oops.’
It seems that the story I was trying to tell was very close to that side.
While the two grand dukes were talking about this and that.
This time, Archduke Littorio came to see what he was talking about.
In addition to the foreign affairs part, it is said that his faction has recently entered the Ministry of Home Affairs.
It’s a bit worrying for the emperor faction, but there’s nothing you can do about it.
In the current situation, the talent pool was insufficient for diplomacy alone.
But Archduke Littorio did not come alone.
Beside me was a huge middle-aged man.
And the two grand dukes saw the middle-aged man.
Especially, Archduke Schrelitz shows a very surprised expression.
“Baron John Nassen.”
“It’s been a while. Your Excellency Archduke Schrelitz. It’s the first time since the East.”
“Yeah, that’s right. It’s the first time since then.”
It was the Grand Duke of Schrelitz who suddenly recalled the nightmare of that day and flinched unconsciously.
Although it is a past that has passed, he is himself who was also one of the top 10 empires.
Even though he’s old, he hasn’t had any trouble moving his body yet.

John Nassen’s training method pointed out by Baron John Nassen and later followed by Kyle.
Even the Archduke of Schrelitz made him groan.
‘This, it seems that this friend has also suffered.’
There, Archduke Littorio realized that he was a comrade.
Isn’t it quite difficult to control the shaking body right now?
In the midst of that, Grand Duke Schrelitz’s appearance was similar to his own yesterday.
“Isn’t Archduke Bayen dating Baron John Nassen for the first time?”
“Yes. I met the Baron’s youngest son, Kyle John Nassen.”
As Archduke Bayen said, he looked at Baron John Nassen.
Even if you don’t know anything else, you can figure out the value of the other person and how much you can profit from.
For that part, he is truly an unrivaled figure.
From the perspective of the Archduke of Bayen, to evaluate Baron John Nassen….
‘One of the two. Or no money Or, literally sweep the money.’
Meanwhile, Baron John Nassen was also evaluating the Archduke of Bayen.
Because she was also one of the top 10 empires in the past and was the Grand Duchess of Shurelitz who served as the ‘sword of the empire’ for generations.
Also, Grand Duke Schrelitz, who was satisfied because he was born with strong bones.
Or maybe not as much, even though I can see a lot of regrets right now.
Unlike Archduke Littorio, who took care of himself and showed signs of hard work.
‘Above average at best. I’d rather have the priests I saw in the church.’
Inwardly, ‘Tsuttuk,’ Baron John Nassen thought with his tongue clenched.
Kyle, among the daughters-in-law his youngest son will welcome.
It’s a relief that there is no daughter-in-law of the Grand Duchess of Bayen, which is unfortunate just by looking at me.

“This is surprising, Kyle. I thought you would hate a place like this.”
I don’t like it. To be honest, even now it’s not very good.
However, he is not a kid himself enough to show it outside.
Even the emperor himself asked Baron John Nassen and his own father.
In such a place, ‘Ugh. I hate places like this so much’?
Again, the nobles are innocent even if they gossip about barbarians behind their backs.
Well, the people of Jon Nassen are also immune to barbarian words, so it doesn’t matter.
“There will be many places like this in the future, Mr. Elgar.”
“Right? Well, Kyle, that’s your problem. Princess to Princess. Now that I see it, you may have been a worse man than I thought.”
I feel unfair. It wasn’t that they were openly flirting, they were just approaching. It was Kyle who didn’t let the word
Come out of his mouth and just tipped his glass.
Ah, of course, what was in the glass was not alcohol, but just water.
“Tisha looks very busy. Look at that. She even sends her eyes to ask for help subtly.”
“Looks like it.”
“Aren’t you going? Kyle, looking at you.”
“I want to go, but it’s right that I don’t go now. Because that is all for Tisha.”
Tisha is no longer a commoner, but a formal noble.
She has to get used to this kind of life. And, you have to know the world of the aristocrats as well.
Even if you don’t put your will on it and insist on your own way.
If you know at least what kind of world it is, you can deal with it wisely later.
“It seems that the princess has been guarding the Emperor’s side since a while ago.”
“Perhaps he is still anxious to come to you?”
Unfortunately, the princess was currently guarding her side in the form of an escort for the emperor.
She has the Imperial Knights and others, so why is it her?
There is no other meaning. It was just that the emperor acted as a deterrent to prevent his daughter from making another mistake.
“… It would have been nice if the saintess had come too.”
“It’s not like Kyle didn’t talk.”
As Elgar said, Kyle intended to go with her saintess as well.
But she said that as a saint, she herself was not at all suited to such a position. She
She said she had already agreed to lead her New Year’s prayer service at her church.
Thanks to this, Elgar has her strong rival Tisha, the princess, and even the saint.
They were enjoying the New Year’s ceremony very leisurely, without any need to be wary of these three.
I almost wondered if it would be the most enjoyable wedding ceremony recently.
“I roughly expected that it would be like this anyway. So, I hope you can stop feeling sorry for now and pay more attention to me, Kyle.”
Saying that, Elgar subtly slipped her arm around her and entered.
Even if it wasn’t so, it was only natural that the gazes that had been secretly sent were pouring in more.
“Wouldn’t it be like this again during the coronation ceremony anyway? At that time, he was the main character in name and reality, so neither Tisha, nor the saintess, nor the princess could intervene.”
“Since he is the main character, it is rather a problem. Kyle, I don’t have time to get to you. Maybe on that day, you will be busy with other people?”
“Hmm. That’s how you say love has cooled.”
Elgar rolled her eyes at Kyle’s joke and shook her head.
I thought she would fit in with her jokes, but apparently it wasn’t for Elgar.
“It never gets cold. Kyle, unless you’re having an affair.”
“There are already three more besides Elgar.”
“Uh… that then! On the condition that there be more than those three!”
I will never increase it. I can’t even afford these four right now.
“By the way, Kyle. There.”
“Yes?”
“Hey, isn’t that Baron John Nassen?”
“I see. And behind him, Grand Duke Littorio and the other two Grand Dukes….”
The three Grand Dukes and Baron John Nassen were talking.
But suddenly, he put down the glass he was holding and heads somewhere.
Kyle turned his head slightly, and it seemed that the prince had heard some news as well.
Starting with him, nobles suddenly rush outside.
‘What is it? What’s going on again?’
I’m sure he didn’t say, ‘I’m going to destroy the New Year’s Celebration Hall in half, so at least evacuate!’
Kyle sincerely hoped that there would be no more such incidents.
“Kyle!
“Sister. Where are you going… What is that in your hand?”
“Oh, this? My father told me to bring it. Originally, it was impossible to bring it in, but His Majesty the Emperor gave permission! That’s why I’m bringing it.”
What Leah carries is a stick commonly used in John Nassen.
On the outside, it looks like a simple iron bar, but it is several times stronger, just like John Nassen’s item.
‘But why are you taking that all of a sudden?’
Kyle tilted his head and followed the nobles with Elgar.
There stood Baron John Nassen with the Grand Dukes….
“Anyway, I don’t think it’s a bit far to the eastern plains.”
“I promise you, it will fly beyond it.”
The Grand Dukes of Bayen and the Grand Dukes of Shrelitz gossip as if they were betting on something.
And Archduke Littorio just laughed behind his back.
In the meantime, Baron John Nassen accepted the baton that Leah held out.
“I don’t know if it will reach the moon, and it will go that far.”
At first, it was a simple joke.
When Baron John Nassen throws something, how far will he go?
To that, Archduke Bayen replied that it was the end of the empire, and Archduke Schrelitz said it was beyond it.
From there, a strange bet suddenly began.
Even the emperor secretly stepped forward as if it were going to be fun.
I even called the court wizard himself and had Baron John Nassen cast a location confirmation spell on the throwing stick.
If you fall within the boundary magic across the borders of the empire, your location will be confirmed.
If you can’t confirm it, the wizard says it’s beyond the boundary.
“Get out of the way. It hurts.”
Baron John Nassen, who had no intention of taking it seriously.
But Archduke Bayen, not anyone else, was secretly suspicious.
He thought he should definitely show it off.
“Suck.”
With a short shouting sound, the stick in his hand becomes a blue trail and disappears.
Koo-gu-gu-gu-
A deafening roar and shockwaves that make nobles stumble are a bonus.
“… Oh my gosh.”
And soon after, the wizard was shocked.
In an instant, the magic of tracking the location of the staff thrown by Baron John Nassen was broken.
At this level, it would have been enough not only for the borders of the empire, but also beyond the eastern plains.
“I beg of you for the funds, Archduke Bayen.”
“… This. You got it right.”
It was the grumbling Grand Duke Bayen and the laughing Grand Duke Shrelitz.

“Jegal Sojeo! Be careful!”
A wisp of wind passes through the top of the woman’s head.
If it wasn’t for the samurai’s cry, it would have been a terrible look.
“There must be a traitor within the Alliance. Unless… !”
“You’ll say those things later! Pushing them out now is the first step!”
Those who appear to be warriors belonging to a political faction fight with all their might.
However, the number of enemies suddenly attacked was too great, and they had no mercy in their hands.
Above all, they are made up of masters of the highest level.
The level of the enemies was too high to deal with.
“We must catch the daughter of a military commander!”
The warriors of the political faction gritted their teeth whenever such a sound resonated from all directions.
I tried to resist as much as I could, but I was driven to a dead end.
It is an honorable thing to die fighting, but it is only regretful to not be able to fulfill one’s duties.
The battle entered a brief lull.
At a glance, it seemed that the Sega warriors had no chance of winning.
On the other hand, the attackers were still keeping their spirits up.
At first, I thought it was the work of the Demonic Cult. Meng and Maqiao are currently in a state of setting the day.
However, what was used was not the demonic swordsmanship, but the Safa swordsmanship.
Looking at it now, it seems that they, not the Demonic Cult, were the culprits in the recent raid on the country.
“… Hit it.”
The hooded men were about to put an end to it.
Koo-gu-gu-gu-!!!
Suddenly, a blue light began to flash in the sky.
The moment everyone looks up at the sky wondering what this is all about.

Quaaagh!!-
With a roar, the flash of blue light slammed straight into the ground.
In the middle of Sapa’s camp, which was aiming for Sega’s warriors.
