#13 Waiting for Spring (2)

Recently, Tyria’s life has been happier than any time she has passed.

If I had to pick a time when I could compare it, it was the day I first met Elric, but even that seemed to fall short of the satisfaction I felt recently.

Can I be this happy?

A life swallowed up by misfortune, even the happiness that someone would take for granted was taken as anxiety.

I wondered if I had to pay the price or not.

Even so, the day at the mansion passed diligently.

Tyria took care of a few things in her free time, stopped by the study and looked at the flower beds, raising expectations for spring.

In the meantime, it was a bonus to receive burdensome favors from the knights of the newly formed Seolyeong Knights.

It was like that today too.

“lady! Refreshments from the imperial patissier sent by my brother!”

Knight Commander Dynan shouted, banging his head on the floor.

“Please eat!”

Gisera Tyria, who would have committed suicide if she refused, received the refreshment at random.

“I will eat well.”

When I said that, Dynan smiled as brightly as someone who had met Salvation.

I hope you’re crying

“Honorable name!”

It was burdensome.

Tyria nodded and immediately turned around and headed for the office with quick steps.

Still, since I received it, I have to eat it. Thinking that, I opened the door of the office and saw Elric with a serious expression on his face as he read the newspaper.

What are you so worried about?

Thinking about it, indeed.

“You’ve been watching the news from the west.”

“Ah, here you are. ma’am.”

“yes.”

That was the article on the front page of the newspaper.

『Zerdia, the demon king of Nazak, Heimberg, the saint of Serenity.

From noble mtl dot com

Clash on the Lydium Front.』

7 River collided.

It seemed that the full-scale war he had been talking about had begun.

*

Edward muttered in the EW’s president’s office, biting his nails.

His complexion was full of anxiety.

“It exploded. it exploded It finally exploded.”

A head-throbbing major accident has occurred.

Now that the clash between the seven rivers, which had been hoped not to break out, had become a reality, the war was about to accelerate out of control.

Should I have turned the flames of war to the east rather than supporting my own interests?

‘… no.’

That’s too much of a handshake.

Leaving the supply, it was a word that should not be thought of Kasha, who was crouching in the east.

After all, isn’t arguing with Kasha the most terrible method of suicide in the western battlefield?

Considering the aftermath he would cause, this side might be better.

Of course, it’s the next worst, but it’s the worst.

“Ah-oh… !”

It was a hair-raising moment.

“Chairman, the guest… .”

“Secretary, what are you doing? huh? I heard that the devil and the saint are attached, aren’t we all going to go out like this?”

Edward immediately grabbed the secretary by the collar and began to grumble.

“Our old man’s share is 12%. The first and best investor said his life was on the verge!”

“Yes, more than that… .”

“What could be more important than that!”

Even the sky is indifferent. It is Gerdia, the first major shareholder, who unraveled the first button of the war.

And the opponent was Heimberg, who could be said to be Zeldia’s natural enemy.

He is clearly inferior, but given his position on the battlefield, he cannot be supported.

If it goes on like this, EW’s 12% stake will disintegrate in the air.

Even now, the risky friendship stake ratio is completely jeopardized, and management rights are threatened.

“I’m screwed! ruined! Aaaaaaaa!!!”

Edward, who had slipped on the floor, struggled with his limbs and started screaming.

He didn’t even see the secretary’s contemptuous glance.

There was only one thought that dominated Edward’s mind.

‘How did I get here!’

It is a crisis that the management rights of a company that has been working for a lifetime could fall into the hands of a complete stranger.

A new weapon that has just entered development may not be available in the world forever!

My eyes roll when I think of the money invested to make it!

“method! We have to find a way!”

At least, we must stop Nazak and Serenity from engaging in an all-out war right now.

No, the destruction of Nazak in that all-out war must be prevented.

‘What’s there? Yes, if I start a war on my side too… .’

not possible

It only intensifies the war.

‘What if I offer to negotiate? Food support to Serenity… .’

If you do, you will come back as poison later.

this is also impossible

If so, what is the remaining way?

Edward’s bright brain began to think diligently.

There is no problem in the world that cannot be solved.

According to his theory, there must have been a hole through which to escape.

As I was wrapping my head around it, there was a flashing face.

His head snapped.

“Old man!”

“… yes?”

“Old man! I’m asking the old swordsman! All you have to do is ask them to join Nazak! Just this once!”

A bright smile appeared on Edward’s face.

‘Why didn’t I think of that!’

In the first place, the cause of the acceleration of this western battlefield is Kasha’s disappearance!

When he returns to the battlefield, this all-out war will end!

Another disgustingly welcome fight will begin!

“You don’t even have to stay on the battlefield! All you need is a conviction that Kasha has always existed, and will continue to exist, somewhere in the West! That’s why I only call the elders once!”

“Sashimi, sashimi… .”

“Secretary! Let’s pack up right away! In our eastern part… .”

“Is Kasha in the East?”

At that moment, a terrifyingly cold voice was heard.

Edward’s body stiffened.

With a creak, his head turned toward the doorway.

A hollow sound comes out of your mouth.

“… Ullery.”

All that etched into Edward’s retinas was his red hair, his clothes, his freckles, and his small stature.

The glaring eyes are very warm.

Why is that sister here?

The secretary sighed.

“… Didn’t you say you had a guest?”

Cold sweat ran down Edward’s back.

Chloride Ygret, she said.

“Hey, you ask. Kasha, is that bastard in the East?”

“Uh… .”

“You said you couldn’t find it? How did this happen?”

“hmm… .”

how did it happen

‘It sucks.’

Edward hated life.

*

It’s a new word, but Edward’s body’s combat power was at a devastating level.

On the other hand, Calbaran’s siege weapon, Ygret Valentia, was a person whose ferocity was ranked among the top 7.

That’s why Ygret was Edward’s older sister.

Even at the age of 29, which is several years younger than her, he gave her an honorific title.

It is because if he did not do so, he did not know what kind of anger he would suffer from her raging temper.

However, to her, the information that should not be revealed to her, even in the narrow chairman’s room.

“Damn it… !”

The ending where Edward was caught was pretty obvious.

“Where are you?”

she asked in a growling voice.

Edward, who was caught by the collar, lost his ability to think due to lack of oxygen.

Driven by my wild survival instinct, I spat out two words.

“Wee, Weebin… Portman… .”

“That was Ferdin, right? You mean that bastard was hiding there? Somehow I couldn’t see it.”

Tuk, only then did Ygret let go of his collar.

Edward, who regained his sanity by exhaling, finally felt a sense of disappointment.

“Who, sister! for a moment… .”

I stretched out my hand, but it was too late.

Roaring!

Scarf wrapped around her body.

She smiled brightly and immediately broke through the window and soared into the sky.

Clink!

“You’re dead, you son of a bitch!!!”

Her cries echo.

Edward thought as he stretched out his hand in vain toward the spot where Ygret had left.

It was about a number of things that could possibly happen in the future.

‘What if that girl goes to Wibin?’

Due to her fiery personality, the moment she sees Kasha’s face, she will burn everything around her.

Even so, he would bombard Kasha until all the lives in the area were gone.

Of course, Kasha wouldn’t lose.

Even if it hurts a little, I will somehow subdue Ygret.

‘No, do you want to kill me?’

The weight leans towards it.

Kasha is quite satisfied with her life in her hometown.

As soon as the foundation is burned and eaten, it is obvious that Kasha, who is invisible, will kill her.

Terrible things could have happened.

This means that the majority shareholder with a 10% stake could die.

That wasn’t all.

If, by any chance, Kasha finds out the source of the information… .

“… Oh, Mom.”

What should I do.

Edward’s complexion turned pale.

“Secretary… .”

“What is it?”

“How many days will it take for that girl to fly to Yubin?”

“It takes three days to go from the west end to the end… Wouldn’t it take about three days here too?”

“… okay.”

Staggeringly, Edward rose from his seat.

A blank smile hung over his face.

“Pack your bags. Let’s leave right now.”

“Are you after me?”

“Then shall we die here? no. let’s die together Suicide might be more convenient.”

“… I will bring it.”

The secretary quickly stepped down.

Edward tearfully opened the drawer of his office desk.

‘Where’s the diaper… .’

Living was so hard.
