Dragon Soar To The Sky (Rewrite)
Aristocrat

Fadim Creuz. A General who leads thousands of troops from the Ivarian Kingdom. His reputation was even recognized by the elite higher-ups from many regions. Now him... Trying to take Vallen to the Ivarian Kingdom.

"Uhum... All right one week. Then I'll take Vallen to Ivaria according to the agreed contract."

"alright... Creuz, is there something you need to bring Vallen?"

"My authority is still too low. I'm sorry Alex, I can't tell you."

"Well if it's like that. I just wish you could bring him back in one piece when it's time."

"Don't worry, it's all in your plan."

"It's good that it's like that."

They both drank Ale, and talked about many things.

That was at Vallen's.

"Hahaahhh..."

"Sir, why do you look so great?"

"Lookin Tiffa. Actually..."

Vallen recounts everything that happened at the welcoming party.

"I'll come along..."

"Can't..."

"Eh...? Why?"

"My journey is fraught with danger, I don't even know why the Ivaria Kingdom needs help from someone like me. If my guess is correct, now there must be something going on with Ivaria."

"But... Vallen."

"I'm sorry, Tiffa. For just this once, you follow my selfishness."

"Bright... I can't believe it. All right, I'll obey you for that matter."

"Thank you yes. Instead you go home to my mother, and my father. They need you there to take care of Emma."

"When are you going?"

"One more Sunday..."

"Then, I'll go to Mura's village when the time comes."

"Well if you want it that way."

The night changed in the morning...

"Well this is the time for you to study until night, Vallen."

(Wire... I've never seen an elder like this. He's very serious now.)

In the library.

"Hoooh... So the Kingdom of Ivaria was in a region close to the Sea. Their livelihood is also seafood."

"That's right. The cooperation between our Kingdom and Ivaria is that every year they must buy a lot of rice, and wheat from Estora."

"Are they having trouble planting?"

"They are in an unfortunate situation. Their king is now exposed to a strange disease, Plague occurring in some of their territories. Not only that, their land was hit, their crops were damaged, the land dried up, the trees withered. And the worst of it is that the fish that are swept to the shores of many beaches are rotting, it makes the docks very smelly."

"Is that a curse?"

"If it's true that way... It's not wrong if they then ask you to be a liaison between Ivaria and Estora."

"Well, whatever happens next. I'll do my job well."

"Make sure you study their history, traditions, and general knowledge."

"Good Elder Frein."

"Remember Vallen, if we can strengthen our relationship with Ivaria. Then our Kingdom will also be more prosperous."

"Is it because of the oil?"

"Yes, Ivaria has a lot of money thanks to her mines."

"But, what does oil really do?"

"As a sign of the changing times. You know, there's a lot of kingdoms on this continent that want to monopolize Ivaria's oil mines. For example our Kingdom neighbors, they did not even hesitate to invade Ivaria territory."

"Is that true? If that had indeed happened then Ivaria was now in a state of..."

"Stuck..."

"The cunning ones. After Ivaria was struck by calamity, her enemies came to attack while they were still repairing her Kingdom."

"If I'm confronted by a war, then..."

"Vallen...!"

"Ugh..."

"Have you forgotten the most basic thing for an Aristocrat?"

"I'm sorry, Elder. That's right, our job is to prevent wars, to provide an advantage that can be accepted by leaders between regions, and to make speech a powerful weapon for chaotic situations."

"Good... Now I'm sure that you're really ready to become an Aristocrat."
