Chapter 417: 417 That’s what we talked about again .

“It was as expected, but I don’t know what to do about it . “

Sebastian and I are the only ones in the room .

By now, my father will be having a discussion with Marianne .

Marianne has little say in the discussion .

Brother Traw seems to be involved, and she won’t be one-sided, but Marianne is the unsupported princess .

We have no choice but to do what the Empire says .

There is nothing we can do about it .

The problem is then .

I have a problem, too .

“If Marianne and I become co-rulers of the clan, the Empire will have an absolute ally in the north . If either the kingdom or the empire invades the empire, the clan can close the gap . Even if you attack the clan, the Empire will close the gap . The center of the continent will be the cornerstone . “

“And even if the royal family had anything to do with it, we could have another vein . “

“I’m sure that’s the intention . I feel the intention of leaving me outside the Empire . It must be your father’s concern . “

“Too much leverage, number two is only the number one threat . “

I nod at Sebastian’s words .

Though I had no choice, I took too much trouble .

Having received the Silver Cross Medal, I took the position of supporting Leo and targeting the Empire myself .

It’s none of my business . Sometimes Leo doesn’t want to fight, but the situation doesn’t allow him to fight like he did .

Leaving the country to avoid it is an effective hand .

I don’t want to think about a future with Leo .

“As long as you are in the position of the prince, you may be held up . I wish I could declare that I am not involved in the empire struggle, like my sister Lize, but after all this involvement, the declaration is not credible . “

That’s right . In addition, Mr . Rezelotte has a position as the Imperial Marshal . Master Arnold doesn’t have it . “

“That’s right . That’s why my father has prepared a position as king of the clan . “

If you become king of the clan, everything will fall round .

There are some disadvantages to being outside the Empire making it harder for Leo to help, but Leo will gain power outside the Empire .

That would be a benefit .

“But it all depends on Arnold’s feelings . “

“How do you feel . . . “

“This is a political marriage . But I thought it was Arnold himself who made the decision . “

I see . Let’s think about it a little bit . “

That’s why I put the matter on hold .

No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t get an answer .

■ ■ ■

The next day .

There were unusual guests in my room .

“What can I do for you this time?Anna, or should I call you Mrs . Amsberg?

“Call me whatever you want . It’s a very personal matter . “

“Really, then, Anna-san . Could you tell us about that personal matter?Unfortunately, I have a full schedule today . “

“Aristocrats of the Imperial Capital seem desperate to get close to you?Don’t you realize that even if you smile now, it’s like declaring that you don’t have eyes to see?

In that regard, Anna drinks tea gracefully, saying with a smile that our house is different .

I have no objection to that .

The Barons were always on my side . Well, even though the Barons are on our side, I didn’t do anything, and I couldn’t do it .

It is difficult to be on the side of the fallen prince . That was possible because the Barons were building an absolute position in the Empire .

You don’t have to fight factions, so you don’t have to worry about who you’re dealing with .

Fighting only occurs at the same level, but it is true in the Imperial Capital . It’s the same nobility, but the Barons are different .

“But I can’t leave without seeing you . “

“Discipline . For Leo?

That’s right .

“Do we need an ally who can’t see through the essence of a human being like you?

“Empire struggle is power struggle . I need a little help . “

That’s true . So what about my Baron?You think he’s a strong ally?

“Are you kidding me? It is implicit understanding that the Barons have nothing to do with politics . “

“Exactly . That’s why you always get involved in politics . For your sake, the Baron will fully support Leo .

” . . . it’s not unconditional, right?

“Yes, come to my Baron’s house, son . I’m marrying Erna . That should solve the problems that surround you .

I’ve known Anna since she was a child .

This man made no joke but did not talk about marriage .

Even though my neighbors told me about Erna, they never said anything about themselves .

Because I knew the position of the Crown Prince and the daughter of the Baron .

The Anna came up with a marriage story .

That means I’m serious .

“What about the Baron?

“I’ll take care of it . “

I see .

I’m sure you’ve sealed your opinion . To Anna .

That house has a strong relationship with Anna .

The Baron is powerless about this story .

“Thank you very much, but . . . just give me a minute . “

“It’s important . Think carefully . But I think it would be better for you to come to the Baron’s house than to go to the clan . “

That’s how Anna stood up and left the room .

I used to think it was troublesome, but when I was an adult, I was told it was troublesome many times .

This move is probably because I heard about Marianne’s marriage candidacy, but it’s too soon .

The Barons are the guardians of the Empire . Anna can’t move on her own .

I wonder if there are thoughtful roots that have led to the current behavior .

This means that Marianne was taking action at the time of her exile .

Maybe it was before .

In anticipation of this situation, he came to give me a choice of escape .

“Holy shit . . . it’s a mess . “

“Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like we’re together . “

That’s how Sebastian shows the letter on the desk .

The letter arrived early this morning .

The sender is the Duke of Kleinelt . It’s Fine’s father .

The contents are similar to those of Anna .

Instead of going to the clan country, it was about coming to my son-in-law .

Yesterday, there is no way that a letter will arrive today .

The Duke of Kleinelt must have read the situation and sent this letter .

“What do you think? Sebastian . We got a pick, right?

“If a man in the world hears about it, he could shed tears of blood . “

“Absolutely . . . hah . . . “

Sigh deeply, and I’ll push myself to my desk .

In the end, politically motivated marriage .

They just change .

I can’t think of a good solution at all .

Besides, when this big thing moves, you can’t laugh and fool around .

“It’s a challenge . . . . . “

That’s a tough one .

Without an answer, I kept pushing myself on my desk for a while .
