Chapter 31

Chapter 31: 31

The next day, my father woke up.\n

I’m glad I woke up, but I didn’t seem very well. I’m looking lazy, and the fever hasn’t dropped yet. I told him to stay down now and rest anyway that he could die because telling him everything about the illness might shock him.

I followed the instructions very carefully to see how tough he was.

“You might want to stop telling Raven about it now.”

“Right…”

I decided to discuss it with Leeds and not tell my father about the assassination of Governor Meesian.

Because if the illness worsens with extra effort, it will taste bad.

“So… what do you think the Rovents are going to do now?

That’s what I asked.

By the way, now I’m in the room where I’m always studying, and Leeds and I call Roselle to discuss it.\nLeetz naturally, Roselle also has a stretch of knowledge up to 94, so that she can make a good point in this kind of discussion.

“Um, I’m pretty sure there’s gonna be a war,”

“Again?”

“‘Cause before you decided on a successor, Mr. Governor died, didn’t he? You have to fight.”

“Do you agree with Leeds?”

“Yes, there will be a war”

Again, you can be sure that the Governor died at this point = battle,.

“The question is when will it happen, though? It’s just that the cause of death is assassination, and there’s no chance that we’ll start fighting right away, claiming each other to be behind this.”

“I see… but who turned on the assassin to be assassinated at a time like this?”

“He captured what killed the Governor once, but he harmed himself before he could get the information out, and who’s behind it remains a mystery” \n“Is one of the brothers the killer?

“I don’t know. I don’t feel there’s any point in assassinating him because it’s only at this stage his successor is returning to blank paper. It’s possible that either the Governor was revealing to someone in his chest who would decide to whom, and he wasn’t chosen to do so, was listening. And there’s also the possibility of assassinations in other states. If you kill the Viceroy, the Misians will be confused because they were visible. Well, it’s a lot more difficult to offer an assassin from the outside to succeed in an assassination, so maybe it’s different.”

Is there any possibility of an outside offender besides a brother?

Either way, it would be harder to know the truth than the assassin has died.

“We don’t know what to think about looking for the killer, and there’s nothing we can do about it where we find it, so let’s get this far. The question is, after the war, what do we do? Lady Raven is not the kind of person you can go to war with for a while.”

Leeds and Roselle are talking about my father’s diagnosis.

“Can’t Leeds lead a soldier?

“And it’s outrageous, that’s what. Sure, I’ve been accepted by the Lovents more than ever before, but I can’t lead a soldier. Master Ars has no choice but to go. The soldiers are fighting under oath of allegiance to the Rovents. Therefore, without Raven or Ars, the morale of the soldiers will be lost.”

Morale, or… is it still the only way for me to go more than my father can get out on the battlefield?

\n“And should I not tell my father any information that the Governor is dead?”

“Right…… because if you tell him that the Governor is dead, he might be clear even though he’s sick. As the doctor told me, if you’re going to be at rest, you won’t even find out the information. Assuming you find out, you’ll be pretty pissed off.”

“It’s cheap enough to piss me off.”

My father is certainly scared when he gets angry, but you can’t be scared of that in this situation.

“There will be some time before it takes a convocation from the Canale County Governor first. Until then, I’ll have to study warfare and archery swordsmanship.”

“Yes, if you want to teach, I’ll take care of it”

I encouraged more studying and archery than usual for a while.

And March 15th.

A letter was received from the Governor of Canale County stating that he would come to Castle Canale as soon as possible.
