66 Episode 4 Divide et impera




 'Your Majesty ...... why do you have a whore!
 Pecha Pie ......
 Who's got peachy breasts? I'm a C cup! I don't have tits.
 I didn't say anything about anyone.

 You two, don't start a fight right after you see each other.

 Hercule held his head.

 The night after the last battle on the Taurica Peninsula, Hercule called Karolina and Lunalie to his room.
 Both of them had come expecting to be embraced by Hercule and found themselves in the presence of someone they didn't like.

 The only thing I want from you two is to get along.
 ...... I don't want to.
 I can't.

 They both shook their heads at the same time.
 They seemed to be on the same page in this respect.

 "Okay, okay. Okay, okay. You tell me your side of the story.
 "...... What I find most unforgivable is how your Majesty and that woman became involved in a man-woman relationship. ......

 Hercule looked away involuntarily.
 I'm not sure what to say.

 It's all in the past. It doesn't matter at this point.
 "Then what is it?
 "She doesn't like you. She doesn't love you. That's why I don't like her!

 Karolina's argument is as follows.

 I love Hercule. Of course I want to monopolize him. But Hercule is the Emperor. As emperor, he would have to marry other women and have children.
 He would have to have concubines and half-elves.

 Besides, a man as handsome and heroic as Hercule would naturally be courted by multiple women, and I don't think I am capable of dominating Hercule.

 So I'll admit that I'll have more wives, and I'm willing to get along with them.

 But ......

 I'm sure you can understand why people would put me in the same category as a woman who doesn't love you at all and only cares about her own country. I may understand being treated in the same category, but I can't emotionally accept it!

 "But, you know, this is a political marriage. ......

 "A wife should be subservient to her husband and should think of him first. I would take a sword and cut off my father's head if he - hypothetically - rebelled. But if it's between the Kingdom of Khayastan and His Majesty, this woman will definitely choose the Kingdom of Khayastan.

 Carolina pointed at Lunalie and appealed to Hercule.

 "Yes, I know it's a political marriage. Yes, I know it's a political marriage, and it's only natural that you want to benefit Hayastan. However, your first priority should be the Emperor and the Lemurian Empire. I know it's rude, but let me advise you. This woman should be tamed. This woman is a whore who would betray the Emperor in a heartbeat for the sake of Hayastan, open her legs to a man she just met that day, and lick the soles of his shoes! I don't trust her!

 I can't trust her!

 Hercule thought that Karolina was rebelling because she hated Lunalie's tits, but ...... Karolina had her own reasonable point of view.

 I'm sure that Hercule has a point, and Carolina's argument was not wrong.

 But, Karolina. I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this.
 I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to do that, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it." "...... That's, well, ...... that's true, but ...... it's still dangerous!

 Apparently, Karolina is not that antagonistic to the "Lunalee individuals".
 It seems that Carolina does not have that much antipathy towards the Lunarian individual, but rather appreciates her patriotism and love for her country.

 In this case, there is still a way to reconcile them.
 Hercule patted his chest and then asked Lunalie.

 "Why are you repulsed by Carolina?
 "...... I'm not repulsed. I'm not repulsed. It's just that your petticoat is poking me. ......
 "I think someone as wise as you would know that your 'pechapai' provocation is not in the national interest.

 When Hercule pointed this out, Lunalie frowned.
 It was because he had hit the nail on the head.

 She should be friendly not only to Hercule but also to Carolina.

 I'm ...... that .......

 Lunalie paused for a moment, her eyes darting from side to side before she said, "I ......

 "I couldn't afford it, maybe.

 I'm not sure what to make of this, but I think it's a good idea. 
 Hercule somehow understood what Lunalie was trying to say.

 In short, she was mentally trapped.
 In other words, she was mentally trapped.

 Lunalie was only eighteen years old, only one year older than Hercule and Carolina, who were seventeen.
 Eighteen years old is about the age of a senior in high school or a freshman in college in Japan (although she may be a ronin or working), and is barely old enough to be given the right to vote.

 No matter how mature you are, ......

 The people around you are all people who don't like you.
 Unfamiliar climate and climate.
 Unfamiliar food manners, representing knives and forks, with food of completely different flavors.
 And the pressure of having the fate of the Kingdom of Khayastan resting on his shoulders.

 On top of that, the fiancé of the man you slept with will call you a whore and a whore .......
 Well, it's natural to be mentally exhausted.



 When mentally exhausted, there are two types of people.

 One is weak and the other is aggressive.

 Lunalie was the latter.

 Hercule gently embraced Lunalie.

 I'm sorry. I should have been more careful.
 I'm sorry, I should have taken care of you." "I don't need you to worry about me, .......

 You'll be able to find a lot more information on the web.
 In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, there are a number of things you can do.

 Hercule whispered softly back into Lunalie's long ears.

 "Please forgive Carolina. She can't afford you because you're beautiful and have big tits. You're more mature than Karolina and you know it. You're more mature than Carolina and you know it. Don't worry so much about what Carolina says, just be nice to her.

 "...... Okay.

 I'm not sure if it's because I've regained my mental composure or because it feels good to be told that I'm more mature than Karolina, but Lunalie gave a small nod.

 Then Hercule pulled away from Lunalie and ......

 "Well, well, Carolina. Don't look so puffy. I'll give you a big hug too.
 I didn't ask you to do anything!

 I didn't ask you to do that!" But it seemed that she wanted to, and she easily fell into Hercule's arms.
 Hercule gently patted Carolina's head and whispered into her twitching ear.

 Be a little more gentle with her. You know what I mean? Lunalie is a sensitive girl. She can get hurt. She's not as bad as you think. It's Karolina I love most. The Karolina I love the most is the one who could be kind to anyone.

 ...... That's not fair, the way you say it.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find something that works for you.

 As soon as she was away from Karolina, Hercule clapped his hands and said: ......

 "Come on, let's make up. Shake hands and apologize.

 At Hercule's urging, Lunalie and Karolina shook hands.
 But ...... they begin a mysterious mind game to see who will apologize first.

 "...... you first.
 "No, you go first.
 "...... you should go first.
 You're a big man, .......
 That's my line.
 "Whore ......
 "Pecha Pie ......

 The mood turns sour again.
 Hercule sighs and ......

 "Crap!
 Hmmm. ......

 He squeezes the breasts of Carolina and Lunalie.
 They both shouted in unison.

 You're the first one to apologize. You apologize first.
 "...... I understand.

 Hercule ordered, Carolina looked at Lunalie awkwardly and ......

 ...... I was out of line. I'm sorry. I also have no intention of antagonizing you ...... unless you betray His Majesty. Besides, I sympathize with your ...... feelings for your country and appreciate them highly. Let's get along.
 "...... Okay.

 Lunalee gave a small nod.
 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can contact us at our own web site.

 ...... was not mature. It is only natural for you to swear at me, considering the ...... circumstances. I'm sorry too. It is true that I care about the national interests of the Kingdom of Khayastan, but I will not betray ...... you. If I do that, no one will trust me. We're in this together. Therefore, ...... you and I should be able to get along. ...... Let's get along.

 The air around them softened slightly.
 Hercule nodded his head in satisfaction.

 The two of them hadn't completely come to terms with each other yet, but they seemed to have stopped bickering for the time being.
 Well, as far as Hercule was concerned, it was not good for them to be too friendly.

 Divide and rule.

 Republican Rome divided the conquered cities into colonial cities, autonomous cities, and allied cities to prevent them from uniting and governed them successfully.

 The British Empire pitted the Muslims and Hindus of India against each other and successfully brought the vast Indian subcontinent under its control.

 We should learn from this successful precedent.

 Hercule had also planned to challenge Carolina and Lunalie by dividing the country.
 He would not compromise his dominance.

 I'm sure you'll be able to understand that I've been wanting to do ...... something for a while now, but I was wondering if you could do me a favor?


 What is it?
 "What?

 Hercule held Karolina and Lunalie by the shoulders and said.

 You see, I wanted to try this ...... thing with you two together.
