"Don't be so sure, brother Bite. If we're going to fight, we're going to need a palanquin. I'm sure the people in the capital region know that, which is why they need a new king instead of a provisional king who is no longer in the capital."

　The messenger I dealt with returned to King's Landing.

　And as a result, the nobles in the capital area have chosen to fight against Fontana.

　However, the Royal Capital area does not have that much military power to begin with.

　There was a time when it was considered to have at least a defensive capability to protect the Royal Capital Region, but it is obvious that such a capability is hardly functional since the Memento family has been allowed to do as they please.

　Therefore, the fight against the Kingdom of Fontana required help from other sources.

　To do so, they form an allied force by issuing an order to the surrounding nobles for the umpteenth time.

　But to do so, they needed the prestige of King Dorren, even if it was waning.

　Even if they were prestigious nobles in the service of the royal family of Doren, the name value of the Bismarck family alone would not move other nobles.

　For this reason, it seems that a new king has been appointed in King's Landing.

　Not Sigma Duren, the provisional king, but someone else who has the right of succession of the Duren royal family was installed as the temporary king.

　Well, it seems that this was also an initiative of the Bismarck family.

　Instead of Sigma Doren, the first in line of succession, the fifth in line of succession became the temporary king, who seems to be related to the Bismarck family.

　For what it's worth, there are not only battles with the Kingdom of Fontana, but also leadership disputes among the nobles within the royal capital.

　I thought that there must be a lot of complicated exchanges going on.

　However, it seems that the exchange had a certain effect.

　At the temporary king's request, a number of nobles responded to the royal family of Dorren.

　And among them, of course, were the Reinsatz family.

　We do not know how the Reinsatz family feels about this, but they probably want to strike the Reeds immediately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The Reinsatz, being the hegemonic nobility, have formed an alliance with the royal house of Doren, and as a result, they have gained the position of leading the various nobles.

　Therefore, it does not matter who the king is, as long as they are in league with the royal house of Doren.

　Moreover, if there is some suspicious activity in the vicinity of the royal capital area, which they had been working hard to restore, they would have no choice but to make a move so that their previous efforts would not be in vain.

　The Reinsatz family will probably aim to seize Reed.

　After the destruction of the Reed territory and its possession by the Reinisatz family, they will again demand the return of the provisional king from the Kingdom of Fontana.

　Originally, the current Reed territory had been held by the House of Reinsatz, although it had been left as a lawless area.

　If the other nobles are willing to help them regain lost ground, it will be to their benefit in the end.

"The temporal king has called for a meeting, and the royal capital is gradually gathering armies from various noble families. But the Reeds are in charge. I think that there will be a battle with the Reinsatz family in less than half a month, who will not go directly to the capital but will come from the west to the Reed territory.

"So it will be the Barka army that will fight the Reinzatz. But, the strength of the Barka army is about 10,000 to fight against the Reinzatz family, isn't it?　Is that enough?"

　We have information that the Reinsatz family will pay at least 50,000 for this battle.
