　He still did not trust me and went to the trouble of checking with me.

"Are you sure you want such a girl ......?　If it is only to nail the Nistonians, you don't have to take them. We do not care if you refuse. ......

"No, I fell in love with her with all my heart. Please, don't worry. And I'm not going to choose a wife out of duty. My only concern is that her body is not so strong, but I can't help it. I'd rather pray as hard as I can than have a priest pray for me.

　Now I can almost understand why Solstice is worried.

　He feels sorry for his daughter, who seems to be so fortunate, to be consumed in a mere political marriage where there is no love. If that is the case, he wants to give her a good home, even if it is with a less powerful man.

　But the yucca who came to me was still a yucca, looking incredulous, "Are you sure you want me like this ......?" I asked him the same question as my parents.

"You don't realize how attractive you are. It would be disrespectful to us, who chose you, if you were more modest than that.

"Men are interested in a type of woman they don't know. Like a gourmand."

　That's quite a statement, but maybe I'm not so wrong.

"You know exactly what I mean. Even if there was a woman who looked like Serafina, she wouldn't be as good as Serafina."

"I guess that means there's nothing that can beat me for foul-mouthed."

　I'll never have this exchange with Yucca again, but that's okay.

"Well, then, you can give your new chambermaid a good look at Maust Castle for the second time."

　I gathered an army at the castle of Maust, and in early summer I finally sent it north.

　The old general Sivik is in charge of the castle of Maust. He is a talkative man and not a senile old man at all, but his legs and back are indeed worn out. His beard and hair are white, and he even looks like a deity worshipped in a temple.

"What you're saying is similar, isn't it?"

　Sivik, who has helped me for so long in my meritorious deeds, is getting too old to be on the front lines of battle any longer. He was in charge of the front when I first entered King's Landing, and that was probably his last big job. Since he seems to be still willing to do more, I've entrusted him with this job.

"How about that, Little Sivik?"

　I asked the little civik on the march. He's older than me. He must be close to forty.

"I'll have to make my father comfortable with my military achievements soon, won't I?

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

　Compared to Sivik, Kosivik is a man of common sense and does not have the air of a warrior. However, he has served me for a long time, just like his father. Considering the length of time he has served me, the Sivik family must be second only to Laviala.

"Don't worry. Don't worry... your military exploits will not make Sivik want to retire. He won't be satisfied until he's been on the battlefield all his life.

"Your Majesty, from the family point of view, this is a joke--"

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

　Kosivik's words stopped there. I think it was because he wanted my expression to look like I was joking.

"Little Sivik, I think my father's legs and feet are weak, but I didn't say his ability to lead has diminished.

　We need to make sure that Kosivik understands this clearly.

"Would you leave the absentee role to a boring person?　Do you think that being an absentee is just an honorary position?"

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

"No, that is never the case. ....... And, moreover, this time the absentee role could be, at worst, a battle. ......"

　The region commonly referred to as the northern part of the country is made up of a vertical line of prefectures, with one set in the east and one in the west. It is said that originally, different ethnic groups migrated from other continents, and the distribution of prefectures is not as complicated as in the central region.
