"The Wangdu Allied Forces are on the move. They are approaching the waiting Reed forces on the plains around the Holy City Road. It is expected to be a battle of a small number of Reed's army against a large number of the Allied Forces of King's Landing, just like Barka's army against Reinzatz's army.

"The Holy City Road. I used to pass this road several times when I was a little girl.

"Is this the road you use to go to the Holy City to pay your respects, Miss Kiri?　I've heard it's pretty busy, but I've never been."

"Yes, Mr. Vargas. I think people who live in the Royal City area must visit the Holy City at least once in their lifetime, don't you?　Many people go on foot rather than riding in a vehicle like the nobles do, and there are many inn towns along the road to the Holy City. I secretly enjoyed buying souvenirs there.

"I like it. It must be exciting, that's for sure. I was born in Fontana, but I've heard of the Holy City Road, but it's too far away for me. Maybe next time I'll ask the general to take me south.

"By all means, please do so. Well, there is no Holy City anymore.

"The holy city was destroyed by Naja, the divine enemy. Now, the ruins of the holy city were launched into the sky by the general, and Cardinal Miglia, known as the Blue Saint, is managing it as a sky cemetery.

"The Divine Realm and Vulcania are lands floating in the sky, but the site of the Holy City, which became the Sky Cemetery, was also made to float above the sky by Ars-kun, wasn't it? It is amazing that he could make the land float.

　The topic of the Holy City came up as a topic of conversation.

　Kiri, who was born and raised in King's Landing, talked about the former Holy City and the road leading to it, the Holy City Road, and I picked up on that and mentioned the current state of the Holy City.

　I pick up the conversation and mention the current status of the Holy City.

　This was also what the general secretly asked me to do when I was giving a commentary on the radio.

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

　This radio is heard in many places.

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

　However, most of the people who listen to it are not so well-informed.

　In fact, many of them probably know little or nothing about it.

　Basically, most of the farmers, as I used to be, know only about their own land.

　The rest of the time, they may talk about what happened in the next village or something close to them.

　As for the things further away, we only hear about them from occasional travelers or bards, so it is not uncommon for us to hear about a big event that happened far away, but several years later.

　What I am trying to say is that some people still do not know that the Holy City has already been destroyed, or that the site of the Holy City has been launched into the sky as a celestial cemetery.

　Unless you are constantly gathering information about things that do not directly concern you, you will never know.

　Therefore, it was necessary to reiterate this fact in this high-profile live broadcast.

　It was necessary to make it known that the Holy City had already been destroyed and launched into the sky, and that the ground part of the city had become the Reed family's territory as the city of Richard.

"Well, let's just get the information straight again. How much do you know about the current situation of the Holy City?　The Holy City has fallen into the hands of Naja, the enemy of God, and all the popes, cardinals, and archbishops who lived there have died together. The light of judgment used at that time turned the Holy City and the surrounding land into a land of death due to salt damage.

"Yes, that's right. It was under such circumstances that Pope Paul, the current Pope, made the request. He asked us to save the Holy City, a place of great importance to the Church. So, the shield of God, the general, and Kyle, the head of the Reed family, moved in."

"Ars-kun, who went to the site of the Holy City, magically made the Holy City float in the sky, and Kyle-kun turned the land of death into the land of fertility. Ars protects the holy city floating in the sky as a sky cemetery, and Milialia manages it. On the ground, Kyle built a town, and now it is called the town of Richard.

"That's right, Miss Kili. And did you know that the sky cemetery is also involved in this battle?　There's been some trouble over a funeral that's going to be held at the Cemetery."

"Oh, I've heard of them. As I recall, the interim king Sigma Doren asked Ars-kun to hold the funeral of the previous King Doren at the Sky Cemetery. But the Bismarcks in the capital didn't like it, so they attacked Joseph of the Greited family who was making preparations for the ceremony, and I heard that King Sigma Doren and the Greited family defected to the Kingdom of Fontana because they feared for their safety.

"Yes. If the funeral ceremony is held at the Sky Cemetery, the previous King Doren will be able to enter the Divine Realm, the world of peace after death. Yet, the Bismarcks and other nobles who make up the current Doren royal family attacked King Sigma Doren for their own gain, and even installed a man who is related to them by blood as the temporary king, and issued an order to the nobles. The war was started by the Bismarcks and other nobles in the capital region using the royal house of Dören.

　In a fight, you need a cause.

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

　How loudly do we argue that we are right and the other side is at fault?

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

　This is quite important.

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

　It is also the reason why people sometimes make a speech to each other before a battle begins, to assert their cause.

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

　Apparently, the general wanted to make this point over the radio.

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

　He explains the current situation of the Holy City and the cause of this battle in a one-sided manner in a broadcast that attracts a great deal of attention.

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

　The Bismarck family and others cannot refute this.

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

　This is because there is no one on the radio who can speak for the Bismarcks.

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

　Probably, the Bismarcks are listening to this radio broadcast now.

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

　And they must be furious.

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

　If I were in the opposite position, my gut would be boiling if I were told that the fault was all on the Bismarcks' side and that the General, Kyle, or the Kingdom of Fontana did nothing wrong.

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

　But there is nothing we can do about it.

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

　This radio is being broadcasted in Vulcania, far away from the royal capital where the Bismarck family is located.

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

　As usual, I was impressed by the general's ingenuity.

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

　It must be a terrible thing for him to appeal to everyone who listens to the radio to justify himself, and to forcefully plant in their minds which side is righteous by accusing the other side of the same thing.

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

　I can't help but think that we should never make an enemy of the general.

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

　As I was thinking about this and talking with Kiri about the bad news for the Bismarck family, it seemed that the two armies had finally come to blows.

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

　The battle between the Reed Army and the Allied Army of King's Landing had begun, and we decided to switch our conversation to that side of the battle.
