104 – Those Who Must Leave
One day,
For the first time in her life.
I found a man I love.
To get him, she did everything she could.
In order to close the distance between him and him, she used the term ‘brother’ which did not suit her.
As she changed the structure of her life, which had been leisurely until now, she appealed to him about her ability.
Even when the unexpected moment of separation comes.
She did not get frustrated and searched for a new path.
The result.
She finally reached the top position that everyone envied,
She was finally convinced that she would be able to get the man into her own hands.
However.
From the time when she obtained her power and was just about to start working in earnest.
The situation began to take off in a direction she had never expected.
*
“… “
“Ha… “
A woman looking out her window with a gloomy expression.
The only remaining general of the British Empire.
General Horai Nelson,
He let out a deep sigh and lowered his head.
“… Jen… page… “
The sound of her sighing, short but with genuine exasperation.
In it,
Nelson was feeling a deep sense of frustration as he reviewed his life and the choices he had made in it.
‘Where does it all go wrong? This guy’s life… From where… ‘
A series of events that began with Cromwell’s escape.
From this point on, her situation went beyond what she could control.

As a result, despite Nelson’s best efforts, she had no choice but to watch as all her plans went to waste.
However.
No matter how much I thought about it, there was absolutely nothing she did wrong in the process.
It would be better if I made some crucial mistake.
Despite establishing and carrying out a plan that was virtually perfect, Nelson was completely ruined as a series of accidents occurred in completely unexpected places.
The more I think about it, the more helpless and resentful I feel.
At this moment, Nelson had no choice but to take a truly reluctant step.
‘Ha… Seriously, what is this… I worked so hard. She couldn’t even see her brother’s face, the imperial army was crushed like dogs and kicked out of the colony, and in the end, I ended up like this too.’
In her honest feelings, she also wanted to give up everything for now and go to where Cromwell was.
However,
No matter how much the person you love is there,
Nelson knew full well that it was impossible at this point.
Although Cromwell’s love was sincere,
It was Nelson who came all the way here for this purpose.
However, apart from this, her feelings of patriotism were never false.
No matter how much you want to follow the man you love,
Now, it was something I couldn’t bear to be in the same company as those traitorous rebels who had completely separated from their country and abandoned it.
However.
At this moment,
Despite Nelson’s patriotism, a document on the table caused him to
Due to the writing containing an ‘order’ that I really do not want to follow,
I was feeling a huge conflict in a corner of my heart.
‘Ha… But, no matter what… I never thought there would be an order to return like this… ‘
An order from the emperor and the Imperial Council to return to the country, leaving the work in the Florin region to his subordinates and field officials.
This was something Nelson, who was still watching for contact with Cromwell, really did not want to do.
Nevertheless, she knew very well that even if her heart opposed it, her head had no choice but to follow it.
In the course of the war against the colonial rebels, two of the empire’s three proud commanders disappeared.
It is said that General Bagoin spent the rest of his life as a playwright after completely retiring from the military.
General Cornwalls was in fact the person responsible for stopping this war and was to be punished according to military law.
Considering his family background, it is absolutely impossible for him to serve in the military any longer, even if it is not the death penalty.
In the end, at this point, there was only one person holding the position of General of the British Empire, Nelson.
In other words, this meant that she was the only general left that the imperial army could rely on.
Of course, sooner or later a new general would have to be appointed, but it was unlikely that Nelson’s importance would disappear.
‘Sure, at one time he dreamed of becoming the best general in the empire, but… I didn’t want it to happen in this crappy way… ‘
In such a truly unwilling mood,
Nelson eventually began packing for his return home.
In the end,
A painful path that leaves you with no choice but to give up your loved one.
At this place where it all begins, I feel tears welling up in my eyes.
Nelson could only hope that her future events would ease her pain a little.
It would be nice just one last time.
Feeling deep sadness and wishing she could see the face of her beloved brother…

‘In the end… ‘This is how it happens.’
Richard quietly closes his bag after packing up all his belongings.
She, who returned to her home country as Nelson’s manager, was feeling complicated in many ways.
Although at this moment, his superior, Nelson, who was unable to find love, must have felt like he was burning inside, to be honest, Richard’s feelings were not all that negatively biased.
About 40,000 imperial troops were killed or captured, and the war was also lost.
However, Richard was fortunate to escape this storm with his limbs intact… In addition, he was able to return to his homeland with the status of a general.
Moreover, as the responsibility for the defeat was not on them, but on General Cornwells, who used a poisonous attack, there was little damage to their careers.
Of course, it would have been better if the war had been won, but the situation cannot be considered that bad at this level.
In such feelings of regret and relief.
Suddenly, Richard began to feel a bitter feeling in his heart as he thought of the person he would no longer be able to see.
‘If I hadn’t betrayed you… The results would have been much different than now, right? Captain Cromwell… ‘

A square where many people gather.
Looking at the place, which is extremely busy with preparations for the upcoming big event,
Two people standing as guests, not as subjects of this event.
General Rafael and Chancellor Ely had some precious free time, sipping coffee.
“It’s quite large. Honestly, the rebels… no. “Considering the national power of this ‘country,’ I think it’s a bit excessive.”
“Even if it looks like that, isn’t it a historic moment when a country is founded? An ideal state established by the power of the people. “As it is such a monumental moment, it is only natural to prepare to that extent.”
Lafayelle speaks in a very excited voice after hearing Prime Minister Ellie’s words.
About this, Prime Minister Ellie spoke in a calm voice with a gentle smile on her lips.
“It’s the power of the people… We certainly shouldn’t ignore it. However, I think it is difficult to blindly trust this too.”
“But Your Excellency didn’t see it either. Those small, powerless, extremely ordinary people are coming together to create a country and a new order on this land. That alone shows the power that people have… “I don’t think there is a need to explain how great the power to create miracles is.”
General Rafyael speaks with quite a bit of excitement, unlike his usual self.
However,
Looking at his reaction, Prime Minister Eli spoke quietly while still maintaining his calm.
“Of course, I have no intention of denying that power. What I mean is, that power is more dangerous than you think.”
“Yes?”
“The power of the people is like fire; it can be a warmth that overcomes the harsh cold, but it can also be a disaster that burns down houses at times. “If we do not deal with this carefully, an uncontrollable catastrophe will follow.”
“What a catastrophe… Could that be possible? Does this mean that all these simple, unspoiled people harbor strange dark intentions? Personally, I cannot agree with that opinion.”
“…”
Prime Minister Ellie looks a little dazed for a moment at the general’s words.
Immediately after that, she began to develop a nightly interest in General Rafael, who surprisingly still had an innocent side.
‘I still feel pure in many ways… Well, sometimes there have to be people like this.’
With that in mind, Ellie concentrated on enjoying this moment and quietly relieving her fatigue for now.
When this incident is over and I return.
From then on, there won’t be any leisure like today for a while…
In her country…
In the Kingdom of Franz.
There were a mountain of complex and headache-inducing issues beyond the independence of these colonies…
