Chapter POV - Negotiation

POV King Nidel

"Greetings, Your Majesty the King"

"you, you are the representative of King Mazica, aren't you? what was? "

"Please your honor, I have a letter from King Mazica"

"All right, give it to me"

I immediately read the letter from the Mazica Kingdom. I have a bad feeling about this. However, there has been no news from my first child this week.

when I read the letter....

"Whataa?!!! "

The contents of the letter were about my son's detention and plus his army was gone.

They want to ask for negotiations on my son's release.

"Bas stupid, even as an adult you still trouble your father"

I was very upset about this. I had already announced that I would make my first child as a successor but now he has instead lost in the invasion he made himself.

"emiss.deliver how king Mazica wishes"

"i understand his majesty in return for the release of the crown prince of the kingdom of Nidel. King Mazica wanted it exchanged for two years of food supply to the Mazica kingdom and made a new moratorium because the old one had been violated by the Kingdom of Nidel"

"What?"

Isn't this the same as me supporting them?

Upon hearing that, the Counselor immediately whispered me a solution from him.

"I feel two years is too much as a demand. I want formal negotiations done"

"all right, your majesty, I will tell your majesty king Mazica for the response that the king has given you"

After the audience I immediately gathered my other children.

***

I have three boys and five girls.

The third child is still 10 years old so he does not deserve advice.

My two daughters have married people from the Randoll and Rock Kingdoms so they can't give me advice.

Fourth and fifth daughters I can not consider because his mother is a commoner ex-servant here and not now where. The news I heard last is he died because his village was attacked by bandits. I don't know what the fate of the child she's got.

Only the second prince and the third princess remained.

"What do you think of Marlon? "

I, unceremoniously asked my children that..

"Dad, why don't we just leave brother there? it's his own thing"

That was the second boy's response.

"Billy, what do you mean? we won't have a face if we do that"

"Then dad, are you willing to deposit a ration of two years of Mazica's royal food?"

"We need to negotiate that issue, how do we reduce it"

I was very upset with my second child.he was a person who actually deserved to be king more than my first child but the royal rules could not give him the title of King. though he was very cold-handed so suitable as a king.

"Dad, do you know how that Baron wilson beat brother? though the troops that you bring are his elite troops"

"I don't know, either, from the news I received, the troops he brought were annihilated and he's been arrested"

"who's this Baron wilson? "

Billy suddenly interjected in confusion.

"Haaah, Baron wilson is the Baron I've been investigating lately.The first and most important thing is that he managed to snatch Eleanor daughter of Duke William from your brother's hands. this was also the basis for why he was so upset and invaded."

"Then what did you find out about this Baron wilson"

after Billy asked, I then told him how the achievements made by Baron wilson.

First was the feat where he managed to find a plant capable of growing on the ground without magic.This was the most resounding feat for him although this was not the feat that earned him the title of Baron, because of this feat so he managed to snatch Eleanor from Marlon plus get Alicia from Marquis Aegnor.

The second achievement is in the field of education.this at once was the first achievement he made so that he got the Baron degree.he managed to advance science in the Mazica Kingdom. I currently do not know in what way so it makes him awarded the title of Baron.

Please note, if you are accepted as a teacher, you will generally be given an honorary degree equivalent to a viscount but do not have a territory.

then the last achievement was that he was the most successful merchant currently in the Mazica Kingdom region.I had already figured out where his supply of pot came from but was unable to find any trace of it at all. it's like he took it straight from the forest of death where it's absolutely impossible.

And there's one more piece of additional information to know. ever since the invasion.The informant I sent couldn't enter wilson territory or even observe it because of the tight guard.

"....... "

"....... "

Upon hearing this, Billy and Lisa only froze in shock.

Not long after being surprised, Billy immediately gave a response.

"I can only conclude that this Baron wilson is actually the strongest card that King Mazica now has. I understand the demands that King Mazica has on us"

"I agree with Billy, Dad. I know how Alicia's character was because he had met her.he is an art maniac and really likes talented people. Alicia would never want to be approached let alone become engaged to a mediocre person"

"Hmmm so yeah.... "

I heard the judgment of my two children and it's getting more and more burdensome for me to make a decision.

"Dad, this is just a suggestion from me. how about asking for help from the Randoll and Rock Kingdoms to help suppress the Mazica Kingdom. For example such as limiting drugs and Tambag results such as gold and iron"

"But if we do that will they be willing? "

"It all depends on how Nina and Alina's sister negotiate there, after all they are the couple of the crown prince of each Kingdom"

"It seems like it's just the solution yes"

"Father is right, the first solution is that, the other solution we can only exchange Lisa for Sister Marlon. Lisa's gonna be under house arrest as a guarantee for peace."

"Sister Billy how did you get that long on me? "

"Then how can you provide a solution that we are not able to feed the entire people of Mazica Kingdom for two years"

"That's..... "

"Alright, enough. I will immediately send your brother a letter in another Kingdom and see if they can help us. Let's try the first way first"

it made me dizzy thinking about all these things.it seemed like I should immediately choose one of my concubines to immediately rise to become empress and replace my late wife.

All this to reduce the pressure on me.

After thinking that, I immediately ordered the administration officer to send an official Royal letter to the Randoll Kingdom and the Rock Kingdom with the contents of a request for assistance.
