The Weira Empire, a corner of the Imperial Army's tent.

　The officers' classes from the 1st to 5th armies were gathered there, sitting around a long table.

It's a good thing I'm not the only one who has to deal with a small country like the Stillbeats.

　A handsome man with one eye and white hair, who is sitting messily while holding his head back, mutters in a b*tc*y manner.

''Don't get carried away just because Ruina-sama is absent, Fonv.

　Glaring at such a handsome man and chiding him is a stern middle-aged man with black hair and blue eyes - Iratu Aibakh.

　Fonv is the first army, the army chief.

　And Iratu is the second army, the army chief.

　Both are in the top ranks in the empire.

"No, no, no, I'd say the same thing if Lady Ruina were here. You would have said the same thing at your place.

'The Stillbeats are a small but stable nation. We have information that they have spent a lot of money on this war. Don't be alarmed.

Okay. Because of some scumbag's mistake, Ruina-sama's trust in me is ruined. Well, let's see. Was it garbage?　Name.

　Fonv looks behind him.

　Behind him stood the First Army, the Deputy Commander - Basina Eilac.

　This was a man who was once an S-rank and the commander of the 0th Army.

　Basina looked at Fonv with a shooting look.

''You can't mess around with ......

''I'm not kidding. I don't know if you're a former S-rank or a dragon killer, but you've been overrated. Normally, I'd be just fine as an ass-wipe, so why do I have to be the deputy commander?

　Fonv complains.

　I don't care if it makes the scene worse.

　If this is the case, a killing spree could happen. In this situation, the door to the conference room is opened. Everyone stands up when they see the Lord entering.

Are you all here? Thank you.

　It's Ruina, Empress of the Wayra Empire.

　She lightly raises her hand to urge her to be seated, while she herself sits in the only empty chair that was available.

　Fonv looks at the woman accompanying Luina behind her and says in frustration.

'You're not even here, Yuy?'

　The 0th Army, the new army chief, Yu Yu.

　Yu does not even react to Phong Vu's words.

　This causes Phong Vu's anger to light up even more.

''Ruina-sama, why am I not the commander of the 0th Army?　Isn't it too much to ask for Yui all of a sudden?

'If the top is replaced without being busy, the bottom will panic. Besides, I don't think he's competent or manageable.

The guy behind me has been demoted as a result of that decision?

　Fonv looked at Basina with some mockery mixed in. --The conference room froze.

　The military chief and the deputy military chiefs were turning hostile towards Fonv.

''Enough. You're not talking to Lady Louina in the right way.''

　Iratu says to Fonv in a powerful, low voice that evokes a sense of alarm from the depths of his stomach. It's an ultimatum.

　If you disobey it, the fight for your life will begin.

'Fine, I don't care. 'I don't care, I don't care, it's normal to be disgruntled. That's why we had a big war like this. You have heard of the Stillbeats recruiting people from mercenary groups and guilds, I'm sure you've heard of them.

　Each military commander class has its own channels. The basic source of information is naturally not lacking in any of them.

　Everyone nodded at Ruina's words at the well-known fact.

''There is also talk of a coalition of other countries being formed. There are even rumors that the nations under the Empire's umbrella are also planning to revolt. It means that we can't overlook the growing size of our empire. Especially since the weakness of the Kuzeera Kingdom and the repeated misfortunes of the Holy Republic have made it conspicuous.

　Everyone takes a reaction to Luina's story as if they already knew it.

　Looking at them with satisfaction, Ruina continues.

'I've notified the troops stationed around the country, but I'll reiterate to all of you that we will unify the human race in the near future. -- we will unify the human race in the near future.

　Louina's eyes gleam.

　She herself did not have the 'power' in terms of martial arts. However, there was a charisma and supremacy that overwhelmed the others.

　Everyone in the conference room shivered with goosebumps.

　Even Fong Vu, whose mouth had been agape just a moment ago, had a deepening smile on his face.

　In fact, the Weyla Empire is equipped with that much military power. It has the power to fight each side as more than equals.

　The stillbeets are just one of the stepping stones--.

　Fung Vu suddenly asks.

''Come to think of it, Zito who says he crushed this scum with one shot?　Jeera?　What happened to the guy who said "I'm not sure"?　Isn't that what you're saying Yui is working to pull out?

'I've been briefed, but I'm afraid not. I'm one of my top recruits, but it doesn't look like he's going to come to the Empire.

'Heh. Then it might come in this time against Stillbeats?

　Fonv questioned.

　He's an unbeatable individual. He also has a keen instinctual sense. He is proud but not lazy. That's why the possibility of Zied was also under consideration.

''No, I don't think so. It shouldn't be a good idea to clash with Yui, that vixen.

　Louina thinks of the Guildmaster's riff.

''Ha. That's right. It's a shame, because I was going to beat you up.

　Fonv said, scratching his head with a polypoly.
