"We will seek a way of reconciliation by eliminating the source of the problem," is that right? Well, that's the usual way. That's about as close as we can get. The only question is whether the other party can be trusted.

 It is true that it is a reasonably conventional resolution to a battle.

"Yes, but it also means that the other side is too convenient. The claim is that the battle was started by a personal grudge of the Hail Medium, but in fact there must have been a thorough investigation before the battle. At that time, the Grougary nation, as a nation, would have approved of the actions of the Hail Medium."

"Well, yeah. So, I'm sure the anti-medium crowd will be desperate to find some new evidence or make up some new story. They'll be desperate to find new evidence or make something up to pin the blame on Hale and his ilk."

"The man called [Meteor] was famous for being a hero, a hero that people said was in Glugaria. The lineage of such a man is about to be severed. So, will you accept it if the anti-medium faction takes the initiative and starts negotiations?"

Well, of course. No matter how much strength the Orient has accumulated in the past few years, it would be too costly to fight a war indefinitely. Besides, even if they win the war against such a devastated city like Glugaria, they would not gain much even if they win the war. If we think about it from the standpoint of national profit and loss, there is frankly no need to continue fighting any longer."

 No, it is not only Ai's opinion.

 It is the opinion of Ai and other members of the Orient Assembly that it is time to put an end to the long period of warfare by the Orientals.

 It is Ai, the Secretary of Defense and Protector of the Orient, who is ultimately responsible for the decisions of the army, rather than me.

"But either way, it's up to Grougalia. If the Medium faction, which is likely to have a large number of militants, takes the initiative and decides to continue the battle, we'll just have to fight them, and if the anti-Medium faction takes the initiative, it's not clear whether they'll be able to reach a deal with us or not. Depending on the conditions, negotiations may break down and the fighting may continue. So, regardless of the final outcome, we have to keep the morale of the Orientals as it has always been. Keep this information from the public for the time being, Oliva."

"All right, then, let's continue to build, repair, and expand our bases. If some small army comes back and tries to target the food here again, we have to make sure we can prevent them from doing so.
