Court Wind Chapter 29: Troubles Continue

"Oh, I see."

"Of course, there is no way around it, because it is impossible to easily believe that a person can betray someone so easily, but I believe that from now on they will show it in action...... So Queen Rosa, trust me. ”

"This, yes. I see—"

Rosa smiled when she heard this.

"Then we will fight the enemy together, it will definitely be possible, it will be very smooth."

Rosa's confident declaration made him feel credible.

But he didn't know if it was just his imagination.

"Ah, thank you very much."

"No, this country is in an existential crisis right now, and it is right to help each other, and the next time our country is in crisis, we will also ask for your help, and that's it."

"I see, then we'll have a good time together."

"So, two adults, let's get down to business."

As if their story had been waiting too long, Julia urged them to get on the agenda.

Julia, with blue eyes, half-length silver hair tied in a side ponytail, has a well-proportioned overall style, and has large breasts.

He is a diplomat and a trusted subordinate of the Queen.

"Regarding the kidnapping of the Queen and the Princess, we have determined that the murderer is from the Empire based on the 'magical residue' left at the scene. However, there is multiple pieces of information about her whereabouts, so we are currently conducting further investigations. ”

Julia began to organize her own information.

After asking Hera about the "residual mana", he learned.

When investigating a case, the "residual magic" that varies from person to person is like a fingerprint that is used to identify criminals.

However, even in such a kingdom with advanced investigative technology, the investigation can only be used to distinguish between domestic criminals and criminals from other countries, and cannot be used to identify criminals, but the suspects are caught.

As one of the materials used to determine whether it was committed by the person, it is also possible to determine what kind of magic was used in the crime.

Julia finished speaking, then paused to give everyone time to tidy up, and continued.

"Well, regarding the operational unit of the next rescue operation, the '007' unit within our intelligence department will be dispatched. Moreover, we plan to operate under the direct command of the King, and our intelligence services are currently working hard to investigate the enemy's whereabouts. ”

"What do you mean? Unit 007? ”

Serena, as the commander of the Praetorian Division, reacted immediately.

"It's the intelligence department, and it's good at tracking the enemy."

"Okay, I see"

Julia begins the next story.

"Next, the armed maid who was waiting nearby at the time of the crime was hypnotized, and it seems that the hypnotized room was also accompanied by waiters and cooks, so at the time of the crime, it is possible that the people around the queen were all from the empire, maybe it was done by insiders."

"Why is this happening...... What's more, you know what, Leia? ”

Angered by the lack of security and the presence of insiders, he asks Leia, who is silent behind him.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces turned in Leia's direction.

"In fact, let's say that when part of this big offensive fails, a top-secret operation is launched."

Everyone was stunned by the remark, but Leia continued.

"Taking advantage of the distraction of the royal army on other fronts, this operation is to conspire with insiders in the royal capital to secretly infiltrate the special forces and eliminate the people inside without harming them, and then they disguise themselves with stolen things and kidnap the Queen."

"The goal is to kidnap the Queen and others, calm down the soldiers on the kingdom side on all fronts, and smoothly invade the capital. If the operation had been carried out faithfully, they should have taken refuge in a hut at the foot of the hill near the castle of Elsidat in the northeast of the capital. ”

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"We expected to lose, but we were going to have a delaying battle with the remnants of Hamilton, so we didn't expect it to happen so quickly. However, if I had told the adults earlier, it wouldn't have happened, and I don't know how to apologize......"

"Do you know who the insider is?"

"It's a pity that I didn't have many people involved in this operation, so I don't know the specifics."

"So, you mean, we have insiders!?"

Perhaps Serena couldn't stand it, feeling anxious and angry that someone inside might have left her unit, so she rushed out of the room.

"I'm sorry, if only I had told you earlier......"

"Well, that's enough, no one knew what would happen."

As he spoke, he hugged a trembling Leia, and when he hugged her, she burst into tears.

At this time!

There was an unpleasant sound behind him, and he hugged Leia to his chest and slowly turned around.

"Woo woo !!"

"Oh, you over there, do you agree with me? Your Majesty the King...... Can you send that woman over? I'm going to destroy her now. ”

Rosa drew her sword as before.

It's Hera, it's going to be blackened!

"Hehe, you two calm down, right? Leia, sit down first. ”

"Yes."

He temporarily let Leia sit on the chair next to her, and the killing intent disappeared instantly, and the two of them put away their weapons as if nothing had happened.

(Is Hera trying to scare me to death, it's scary.) )

"And, at the moment, it seems that the location is already known to some extent, and we will come back to the details later. So, the Queen of the Kaisheng Empire, thank you for taking the time to understand our situation, and please continue to cooperate in the future. ”

"I have heard that the new king is very handsome, and therefore, I have come with me the opportunity to seek a mate."

Rosa left the room with meaningful words, and her men followed.

With this, he felt uneasy again, but now he didn't have time to be reassured.

After seeing him off, he was the only one in the conference room, and he was the only one in the conference room holding his head. The negotiation of military aid with the Kaisheng Empire, the kidnapping of the queen and the princess, the security review of the royal palace, etc., all of a sudden, problems piled up.

However, he is now the chief of the General Staff and the king, and he must solve this problem as soon as possible, so he must immediately start communicating with the departments.

(Well, I can't count on an increase in the army now, and even then, I can't rely on them too much...... )

It's a lot, but I didn't think of anything, and Ting Feng simply left.

Just after he left, another man came over and sat down.

It's Julia.

She's also under a lot of pressure right now.

It's not that she doesn't trust the King, but as a natural soldier, she feels a little reluctant to let someone who grew up like a commoner lead a military operation.
