North of the Principality of Albatro.
Near the southern border of the Empire.
There was a fortress of border guards built by the Empire.
It was a robust fortress that could not be defeated in the Duchy of Albatross, packed with tens of thousands of border guards.
It was here, Fort General.
It was Pranerto, the general in charge of the border guards, who took charge of the fort.
More than 60 years of age and more than 40 years of war history.
He was one of the oldest members of the Imperial Army.
Such a planet loved to look out of the fort.
"Oh, this is Prince Diethelm."
"Please don't be a prince." He's already a duke. "
"Hahahaha, for Tsubaki, the prince is always the prince."
Pranelt was once an active general in the center.
Many times, he came out with the Emperor, and when Al's uncle, Diethelm, was still a prince, he also taught swords and military instruction.
"It's no different, you are."
"The prince... no, has the royal brother changed?"
"Somewhat. I thought I wasn't fit for the emperor's rank, and then I put my brother in the rank of emperor in a deadly madness."My brother prepared a number of positions for me, but I withdrew.Because the struggle for power was a struggle. "
You seem to regret it, don't you?
"Oh, I am. If I were in the Imperial City... maybe I could have made it a little easier for my brother."
In hiding, Dietrich Lum watched the changes in the Empire.
The information that flows is all disturbing.
Still, the good ones are with my brother.
The more you move, the more confusion you create.
Believing so, I was in hiding.
Sometimes, the day was a busy one, and the life spent on reading suited my needs.
But...
"For my brother, Wilhelm was everything.He was the son to whom I entrusted my ideals.With the loss of his son, your brother was unable to resist the customs of the Empire.Compete for the children you love, and give the throne to those who have not won.I was forced to do the same as the Emperor before me.At that time, I regretted that I should have stayed in the Imperial City. "
"The imperial struggle is a struggle for power. It will be difficult for you, the Emperor's younger brother, to remain neutral.Some of them would have been saved, but others would have been a burden to the Emperor.Things are like that. ”
It is impossible to say that there is only a benefit.
Someone's interests are someone's disadvantages.
Somebody's justice is somebody's evil.
There are good things and there are bad things.
Many battlegrounds had made it clear to Planeto.
And Diethelm, who had won the battle for the throne, knew that.
If you don't want to get in trouble.
If we don't want to be hostile to anyone.
We have no choice but to live in spite of everything.
I thought that would be fine.
Until now.
"If you move, it will be to someone's disadvantage.I didn't move because I didn't like it.But even if you know it's to someone's disadvantage... there's someone you need to help. "
"Is this Prince Arnold..."
"She's just like me.Just as I tried to put Leonardo in the throne, so too does he try to put Leonardo in the throne.I want to help you. That's what I thought. "
Is that why you came to me?
"Oh, I need you to move the Southern Border Guard to an offensive position."They put pressure on the nobility of the Principality near the border. "
I think it's a good idea, but as a guardian of the borders of the Empire, I can't be arbitrary, even under the orders of His Majesty's younger brother.
"I take all responsibility.The pressure alone would be a great help to Arnold. ”
"I will not move the army unless requested to do so by His Majesty the Emperor or by an authorized person."The Border Guard, as its name implies, is the defense of the army.It is only an army that does not let them invade.That's why the Emperor has no life, and it's unacceptable to show invading maneuvers. "
"I know everything." However, the situation is time-barred.The Duchy is already in a state of civil strife.Arnold alone is hard to recover. "
