Chapter Seventy-Nine: A Ghost in My Heart

In the western sky of the Empire, in the command room of the flagship of the Noble Coalition "Patanguai".

“…… Ladies and gentlemen, you have all heard about it. Gong Kane, who was standing in the captain's position, was the first to break the silence - his tone and expression were calm, but it was difficult to say whether he was so calm in his heart, "What do you think?" This thing. ”

"This matter, from the cause to the effect, is very strange." A tall, dark-skinned man said. He was Brigadier Admiral "Black Whirlwind" Walles, who had temporarily returned to the mothership to recuperate after a period of fighting, but he didn't expect to catch up with such a major event as soon as he returned.

Just as he was lying comfortably in his room drinking, thinking about how to deal with the Seventh Mecha Division and the strange "Red Wing", the waiter suddenly called him over eagerly, saying that Kane had something to discuss with him.

Originally, he thought that it was just that Duke Kane was a little worried about the war on the front line, so he didn't think so much about it. However, what Kane told him in front of him did make his eyeballs almost drop.

Duke Elbaria, one of the "Four Famous Families", suddenly issued an order without warning, ordering the noble army of the Krutchen State to attack and suppress the small town within his territory, and caused devastating consequences - several noble members and generals who were present to hear the voice together, their expressions at that moment were simply wonderful.

Then, everyone seemed to focus on another person, that is, the chief of staff of the aristocratic coalition army, Lufas El Barrea, the son of the Duke of El Barrea, who had made a big mistake this time.

“…… When did this news happen? There was a moment of silence before he spoke.

"It happened about last night." "Lufas, you may have a hard time accepting this matter......

Lufas didn't listen to the coy words of Duke Kane's ensuing - in fact, he had known about it through his butler Arnold as early as last night. It's just that he kept pretending not to know in order to avoid arousing too much suspicion and worry.

Moreover, after a short period of thought, he already knew how to deal with this matter.

"I see what you mean, Your Excellency." Lufas finally took a stand, "My opinion is...... This matter, there is no doubt, is harmful to the image of the noble alliance and the pressure of public opinion. ”

"Oh?" Duke Kane looked at Lufas appreciatively.

"To do such a stupid act...... Whatever the reason, I guess it's incomprehensible. Lufas continued, "Miss Clottid—are you getting ready for that thing?" ”

"Huh...... Yes. In less than a month at most, all the problems should be solved. Vita smiled, much to the confusion of the other generals present. However, the Duke of Kane obviously knew what Lufas was talking about, and couldn't help but say, "Haha...... It was Lufas, who got to the point so quickly. ”

"That's a lot of praise." Lufas said humbly, "It seems that Your Excellency has already made up your mind about handling this matter, so I don't need to say anything more, right?" Just follow the rules – that's all I have to say. ”

"Huh...... Got it. It's not that I can't understand it...... After all, no matter what you say, that's your father. Duke Kane said this on the surface, but in his heart he was actually ecstatic - Duke Helmut had been displeasing to his eyes for a long time, and he had indeed been pressed all along, knowing that the Krutchen side was facing the strongest part of the regular army after it was broken up, the hardest bone to gnaw - the Fourth Mecha Division and the Garelian Fortress, but he still refused any form of assistance. When Lufas called his general staff authority before, saying that he wanted to mobilize some resources for him, Duke Kane was actually a little worried, but the reason used by Lufas was that "the military progress of Kruchen State has come to a standstill, and if you don't make changes, it may affect the military morale of the entire noble alliance" This kind of thing happened to Duke Kane - it's just that the so-called aid that Duke Kane approved with great difficulty has not been sent to Kruchen State, and this kind of thing happened, Don't mention how happy he is.

As for the two on the "association" side - although Kane Gong does not deny that those two are superior, he also knows that they can't do anything in this situation. The most surprising thing for Duke Kane is that Lufas seems to have done it deliberately, and his sensible side makes Duke Kane even more excited.

This kid is very knowledgeable - if he becomes the Duke of Elbardia, then it will definitely not be as tense as the Crutsyn State had with him. If the conditions are sufficient, he may be able to play a big game and marry the youngest daughter of his late brother's family - although the previous teenager seems to have some ability, but in this large-scale civil war, he has to choose the only good side, which seems to be too tender.

Brother – don't blame me. It's also for the future of the Kane family—whether it's the long period of house arrest at the women's college, or the fact that I'm going to speculate about her life's events. Duke Kane thought to himself.

The dramas and small abacus that Kane Gong added to himself in his heart, Lufas is not clear, and of course he does not need to be clear. All he had to know was that his previous goal had been achieved - Kane didn't doubt himself too much in this matter.

"Next...... That's what happened over there. Lufas thought silently inwardly, "He will definitely take this opportunity to act...... My brother, I'll leave it to you at Balyahat—though it's a little cruel to do so? But I can't afford to be held back by this stupid home and identity anymore. ”

You are his true son – and a true nobleman worthy of the name. And I - this fake is not the same. I've long since made up my mind to follow and surpass my true father, but you and I are brothers no matter how much I say it, and this is the last thing I can do for you.

What happens after that - I don't care.

"So—since Lu Fasi has no problem with this, I don't think you will object to my next decision." "I declare that the Noble Alliance, a symbol of tradition and elegance and dedicated to restoring the Empire to its former glory," declared the Duke of El Barrea, the commander of the Crouchin Noble Army, would draw a line of line! ”
