The Grand Duke Teist squeezed the words out of his mouth in desperation. At the same time, his face contorted in anguish. Normally, he tried to remain calm and composed without showing any negative emotions, but the report he had just heard had easily brought his daily efforts to a halt.

The two men, who usually stand tall and strut around the corridors of the Grand Duke's palace with a self-important look on their faces, are shaking like abandoned puppies, begging for forgiveness. The Duke's figure was particularly pathetic. He was not dressed as beautifully as usual, but in simple black, as if he were attending a funeral. There were none of the decorations that had adorned him, just a man of great age, drooping in front of the Grand Duke.

The Grand Duke stared at them, a cold sweat running down his back. The time of the Grand Duchy of Foal's death was at hand. In his mind's eye, he pictured the whole country covered in friendly flowers, and beside the flowers, the withered crops and the anguished bodies of the people. He was convinced that this would become a reality in the near future.

They reported that the flowers of friendship were exploding at an unimaginable rate. At first, the Grand Duke could not understand such a situation. But when he heard the report that Lil Rain had taken cuttings of the flowers entrusted to him and multiplied them by cutting, he immediately understood the danger of the flowers.

A plant with a frighteningly high reproductive capacity and vitality: ....... Moreover, the fragrance of the plant is so strong that it turns into an odor in proportion to the number of ....... If left unchecked, this country will surely die. Already, the gardens of the Duchesse de Fantasie and the residence of the Chamberlain de Lillein are filled with its flowers and are about to release a terrible stench to the surrounding area.

In a quiet voice, as if daring the others, the Grand Duke gave his orders. His brow is furrowed in deep wrinkles, and the two men bow their heads in horror at the sheer force of his command and turn to leave. He stopped them.

Shaking with fear, his brother, the Duke of Hartz, stepped forward and stood before the Grand Duke. As usual, he was timid, but his eyes were shining brightly. Seeing this, the Grand Duke nodded broadly.

The Duke of Hartz replied in a voice so loud that it seemed to be the first time he had ever heard it. The Grand Duke nodded his head and, with a clenched jaw, motioned for him to leave the room.

The Grand Duke shouted so loudly that even the people outside the room could hear him, without paying any attention to their expressions, which looked like pigeons had been hit by a peashooter. A few moments later, a well-built, mature man with a smooth-curled head and dressed in a military uniform entered the room.

Boles, with his eyes black and white, asks the two nobles, who are still frozen in place, to leave. The cloth was then collected from all over the country and used to wrap around their residence.

The Grand Duke was concerned about the seeds and pollen of the friendly flowers being spread or dispersed along with the stench. If the pollen were to be blown away by the wind, the Grand Duchy of Foal would most likely become a hellscape just as the Grand Duke had imagined. He was now determined to do all he could to protect the country. The war between the Grand Duchy of Foal and the Church of Crimea was about to begin, but in a different form.

But three days later, as if they knew that the Grand Duchy of Foal would be in turmoil, a messenger came from the Church of Crimiana. The Grand Duke was furious that Crimiana, who had thrown his country into such chaos, was so eager to have an audience with him, and he said that he would not see the messenger and retreated to his room. For his part, he was afraid that if he met the messenger, he would immediately cut him down. He himself did not have the confidence to control his emotions and deal with the situation calmly.

Nevertheless, the other party had come to this country as an envoy of the Pope. To turn them away would be tantamount to treating her as an enemy. If we do so, we will give that nation an opportunity to open war. It was obvious that if that happened, this country would be helplessly overrun by the Klimiana.

The Duke Fantasic and his chamberlain Lil Raine would be in charge of dealing with Crimiana's emissaries. There were many objections to this, but the two men, wishing to save themselves from embarrassment at any cost, insisted that they would find out from Crimiana's emissary how to deal with the flowers of friendship, and so they took up the task.

The man who appeared as a messenger was the man who had brought the Papal Letter. He was small and balding, but always wore a charming smile and appeared to be a good-natured person. However, his eyes were moving up and down, up and down, and he was trying to learn as much as he could about the internal affairs of this country.

The messenger, however, did not pay any attention to them and continued with his rambling and bland talk. He told them about the trouble of the strong sunlight in Aphrodite, the capital of the Church of Crimiana, and that His Holiness the Pope had recently been enjoying a vegetable soup dish.
