The familiar and slightly unfamiliar voice, the large and convergent magic, made Kira instantly realize who was speaking.

There is no doubt that I ...... not so long ago Maybe it's a little while...... The cheap sister I knew was standing behind me at the moment.

You don't have to look to know that she must have a shallow smile on her face, and she must be followed by the two little girls who don't need to eat, and her figure must still be so perfect.

】

In just an instant, Kira simulated more than a dozen possible scenarios in her mind, and at the same time, she naturally got up, turned around, and asked aloud, "Sister Irene, why are you here?" ”

When he turned around, he saw Irene, Heine, and Juliet standing quietly behind him like a single mother with two babies, looking at her inexplicably with her eyes.

In this case, Kira didn't have time to think about why Erin suddenly appeared here, he decisively changed into a poker face and greeted him with a smile: "You guys came just in time, I'm looking for a restaurant selection for the 'Food Competition' in a few days, and now that the dishes are just ready, you can sit down and eat together!" ”

It seems like a simple sentence, but in fact, it hides Kira's multi-layered calculations.

The familiar tone can unconsciously bring the relationship between the two closer;

The reason for greeting each other with a smile is because Kira firmly believes that everyone is a quality person, and a quality person will not beat someone who smiles at you, unless it is a malicious smile such as ridicule and evil laughter;

said that he was conducting a restaurant selection to tell Erin that she was not lazy and skiing, paddling and fishing, but was still busy with work when others got off work, proving that she had been working diligently and diligently during this time, and lived up to Erin's expectations, so don't listen to Heine's slander of that brainless little girl;

In the end, I invited Erin to sit down and eat together, so that she could take on the burden of eating the overlord meal with herself......

Wait a minute!

Something seems wrong?

Kira was stunned for half a second, and suddenly remembered one thing, Erin can't taste anything when she eats! Then if you make an operation like inviting her to dinner with you, isn't it jumping in her minefield?!

Thinking of this, Kira's face turned pale instantly.

It's over!

"What's that......"

Just as Kira was about to make amends, Erin spoke: "Forget about eating, I already ate before I came." ”

"Really? Then it's not reluctant...... "Kira was pardoned, "I wonder what Lord Irene is looking for me?" ”

"Humph!"

A soft snort, from the waitress behind Erin, Kira's little secretary these days, Heine.

The girl looked at Kira as if she were looking at a sinister and cunning scumbag who did things in front of her face and behind her back.

Two hours a day together gave Kira a shallow understanding of this brainless girl, and soon read what she wanted to express: "Now it's going to be called Irene-sama?" Didn't you use 'Sister Erin' to suppress me arrogantly before? ”

Kira's eyes rolled, and everything was silent: "I'm working, so it's working time, of course, it's a more formal title!" Otherwise, wouldn't everyone else think I'm going through the back door? ”

Heine looked inexplicable: This guy ...... Don't you know that you have long been identified by the people in the town as going through the back door?

The exchange between the two was only a breath, but Erin noticed it, but she didn't care, just stepped forward and sat down across from Kira.

"I heard you're going to have a 'food contest'?"

"Yes!"

"Why?"

"To promote the economic development of the town!"

Kira had prepared for a long time, and blurted out the pre-arranged rhetoric, "You also saw the report a few days ago, the town next door recently held the 'Big Stomach King Competition', this event was not only in the newspapers, but also the hot spot in the empire for a long time, and even used gimmicks like 'mysterious woman' to attract a large number of tourists and promote tourism in the place." ”

"I think we can learn from it and hold a similar event in our city to raise taxes!"

Why raise taxes? I'm not short of money......

Erin pondered for two seconds, her good-looking brows furrowed, and she said softly, "Is this necessary?" ”

"Of course you do, Lord Irene!" Kira felt her chance to perform, "I've taken a closer look, and our town's coffers are seriously underbalanced, which may have something to do with the Empire's focus on magical militaries in recent decades. ”

"Due to the lack of sufficient funding from the Empire, the magic school in the town is quite rudimentary, and there is a serious shortage of both teacher and teaching resources, and many new generations of children do not enjoy the opportunity to learn magic, which is undoubtedly a pity!"

"For a magical military empire like the Albarez Empire, a steady stream of magicians is an important cornerstone of the empire's strength, and once the foundation is unstable, the empire will collapse."

"I know that the Emperor and the Twelve Shields are very powerful magicians, and everyone can easily conquer a small country, but if there are no low-level soldiers, no matter how powerful the general is, it is only a bare-pole commander, and similarly, if the empire does not have a low-level magician, it is just a larger magic guild."

"This hidden danger may not be visible for the time being, but in a few decades, the high-level magicians of the empire will be in a state of lack of success! And at that time, if you want to deal with it and restore the national strength, it will take you fifty years, to say the least! ”

The Albarez Empire has only been more than 100 years since its founding, and it should be able to bluff in 50 years......

Kira paused slightly, took a long sip of wine, looked at Erin, who was silent and quietly watching her, and continued: "But we can prevent it now, as long as we hold a small event like the 'Food Contest', we can attract tourists to come and spend, thereby increasing the economic income of the town, and the next step is to improve the magic school in the town, teach the children of the next generation magic, increase the number of Imperial soldiers, and successfully continue the existence of the Albarez Empire!"

”

It's finally all done! Stupid, right?!

was able to raise the competition to such a high position, Uncle Ben is really a genius!

Kira was complacent and began to drink to quench her thirst.

In fact, just as Kira thought, his impassioned speech directly stunned Erin and the two little henchmen behind her, and her eyes blinked at Kira, who looked at Kira with a calm demeanor, as if she had seen something strange.

Heine, the girl in black standing behind Erin, opened her eyes wide, her face was full of disbelief, and her mood at this time could only be described as shock: "Who is this person?" Is he still the same waste who only works less than two hours a day, during which time he has to paddle through the water and fish by drinking water and going to the toilet? Why was he able to say such a bunch of things that were obviously outrageous, but seemed to be coherent? Is it really the same as Lord Erin said, he is not actually a traveling merchant, but a man of manga? ”

Erin is not a stupid white sweet, she was also the queen who ruled a country, and she was much more experienced in political methods than most of the people in Jerf and the Twelve Shields, so after listening to Kira's speculation, she could immediately analyze how likely Kira's idea was to appear in the future.

The final conclusion is...... Kira is just farting!

The whole process seems to be reasonable, but the Albarez Empire has its own national conditions, and Kira said that there are hidden dangers...... There is a little truth, it is likely to happen, but for those in power in the empire, the decline of national power does not matter at all!

Jerf originally founded the Albarez Empire to pass the time, and in his opinion, it was just a game of chess, and even the twelve guilders were just pawns, and he didn't care about the life and death of his people, nor did he care about the survival of the empire.

The Empire Falls? Then rebuild!

Someone died? Then regenerate!

Can't do magic? Then learn!

Fifty years to restore national strength? Then play it for another fifty years, what's the big deal!

Moreover, the Albarez Empire is likely to launch a 'Holy War of Destruction' to exterminate humanity in the future, and it will not be more than fifty years since this 'Holy War' was launched.

Because even Jelf needs a playable 'chess piece' to start a war, and the two best chess pieces he has gotten over the years are Olgarst and Erin.

Erin won't talk about it, Ocaste is already in his 80s and has very little life left, so Jelv will definitely start a war before Ocaste dies.

And when the war is over, humanity has perished (the timeline has been reset), and it doesn't matter what life will be like after that.
