“Yes? What do you mean?”
“Are you going to make me get up?”
I felt a momentary urge to fight, but as my soul had been cleansed a lot while strolling on the beach, I was in a state where it was difficult to throw insults or scoldings.
The opponent is a war veteran knight. Endure, hold back.
I sighed and answered.
“I was wondering how much longer this place will remain a resort……. It was really no big deal. It was just a word to enjoy the moment. I’m doing the same.”
“You still haven’t answered my question.”
I really wanted to leave, but he was quite persistent.
Yes, while I sit in the room eating and only reading books, you fought for your life in the Tunbar Mountains.
I thought that I should not babble nonsense anymore and wrinkled my forehead.

The sea breeze on the hill was a bit chilly.
“The Empire subdued the Amata tribe.”
“So?”
“Then the Agael Kingdom, having lost an important iron ore import route, will have to find a new one.”
Amata was a tribe located at the edge of the Tunbar Mountains. They were exerting considerable influence on neighboring countries, mining iron ore, and trading, while maintaining a primitive state form.
But the Agael Kingdom across the Tunbar Mountains lured the Amata tribe, severed the iron ore trade with the Empire, and had exclusive trade with themselves. That was the cause of this war.
Soon, the opponent of this war was actually not the Amata tribe, but the Agael Kingdom.
While preparing for the academy entrance exam, I studied not only the past but also the current situation.
So now, these were just useless stories to me.
“The most likely opponent is Smailand across the sea, right? In terms of distance and the diplomatic relationship so far.”

“What does that have to do with this beach?”
“Um. Jebron is the closest imperial territory to the trade route between the Agael Kingdom and Smailand. I saw that on the map hanging in the hotel lobby earlier?”
“…….”
“Since there was the Amata war and the issue of pirates in the Sea of Pollution, the Agael Kingdom is likely to send warships for important trade, and then the Empire will have to station naval forces here by convention, considering the location…….”
I shrugged my shoulders.
“Then the hotel business won’t be easy, right? No one wants to see warships and soldiers outside the window when they come to rest.”
“…….”
“You feel like you’ve listened in vain, right? Walking on the beach, these thoughts came to mind, so I just said anything. I also prefer the place of memory to remain as it is in my memories? So just forget it.”
At that time, a man in noble attire with black hair was seen coming up from under the rock hill.
Ah, shit.

A curse came out from inside. I seemed to have been struck by a black hair neurosis.
And I didn’t want to go through the procedure of running into a noble and saying, ‘I am a nobody from such and such family. Oh, please don’t be so nice. I’m a bastard.’
People always showed excessive kindness to the family of the third lion, and their faces soured when they found out I was a bastard.
“Are you resting? Your master is coming. Eternal glory to Tagar. I wish you a quick recovery.”
I spoke quickly and ran down over the rock hill.
‘Eternal glory to Tagar.’
That was a greeting used for the royal family and also expressed respect and courtesy to the soldiers who protected the Empire.
(This is a time divider.)
Rocard, having climbed up the rock hill, stared at the sea with Prince Grayan, the 2nd prince. The wind had become strong.
“Let’s go in. Your injury might get worse.”

“Rocard, who’s staying at the hotel?”
It sounded like a very indifferent question. However, Rocard found it strange.
Jebron Hotel was a private facility operated by royal funds. There could not be any guests without an invitation from the royal family.
“It’s our father and Count Roar. The Count arrived this afternoon.”
“Alone?”
“He brought his daughter.”
“The one who was admitted to the academy this time?”
Rocard smiled faintly.
“Are you not too young to be Your Highness’s opponent?”
“Die, Rocard.”
Rocard chuckled quietly. His laughter blended with the sound of the waves.

“The two lions will finalize the draft for postwar compensation negotiations next week, and we’ll be able to announce it then.”
“Don’t be late. Rewards for the combatants should be prompt and certain.”
“…….”
“Why?”
“The imperial harem expressed dissatisfaction that Your Highness is nursing your wound here. They pointed out that, since the Amata Expeditionary Force has been disbanded, the Second Prince doesn’t have the authority to be involved in political negotiations after the war.”
Greyien’s twisted smile was quite wild.
“…‘Just run like a dog’ is it?”
“You probably want to leave the role of distributing the feed with a smile to the First Prince Your Highness.”
“The imperial army is now my dog, huh…….”
Rocard neither laughed nor replied.
