The Knights of Eldania
opinion

On his way home, Danie was not out of thought with the person next to him, as the princess but could freely wander in the open outside the palace.

In the sense that due to wearing the clothes of the maid, Elvira out of the supervision of the guards, and did not tell anyone closest to her that she came out.

From the other hand, this is an event of direct supervision into the community, how the state of the economy in its daily life can be observed with its own eyes.

Everything is judged from the opinion of the royal/imperial community itself about the course of government carried out by the king.

In less than a week, all citizens have complained that the tax is too high, even though everyone can still afford to pay the tax, but also will not be able to last forever.

"Winter is almost here, and war is almost here" Elvira said.

"Welcome back, princess"respect the guards of the palace gate.

"Miss!!,why did you run from our watch, I searched all over the place" greeted by the worry of Elvira's lady-in-waiting Erma.

"I didn't tell you to look for me" Vira said.

"But don't do this again, lady, otherwise I'll be the one" said the lady.

"That's none of my business, if I can walk away from your surveillance, it's your fault for not being too dirty"

"Your tongue is sharp as is the daughter of Elvira"

"Huh...why brother Elvin?, what's the problem?"ask her arrogantly.

"No, your words have nothing wrong, what's wrong with you, worrying others is not a good thing" advised his sister Elvira.

[Wahh.he was wise words, and only this time did I see them both at the same time. It is similar, the difference is of course he is a man and next to me a woman]

Danie's.

"Back in your room, the queen's waiting for you there"

"What.!, gawat" Elvira immediately ran away in panic followed by her maids.

"...........?"

[Why is he looking at me like that?]

"Can we talk?"

Danie said yes, he followed where Elviniraz went.

[Where will he take me?]

"Does the pastor have an opinion?"Elvin asked.

".............?"

"Taxes made by the king, as the priest saw in the market, all the prices of trees rose"

"Wait for the prince, why should you take the opinion of a lowly person like me?"

"Because I feel that pastors know better and feel their suffering, I know that pastors every Saturday and Sunday will walk out of the palace. While I took care more to help the king and train martial arts as the leader of the holy knight"Elvin stopped for a moment, then turned his body back and faced Danie.

"What's the reason the king raised the royal tax?"

The Flash Back On

Inside the hall where the king was sitting, there were several people gathered there to discuss something. There was the king of Mirkan, the leader of the imperial army of Caver Willard, the leader of the Holy Knight army of Elviniraz, and the prime minister Ruth De Verita.

"Please begin, your majesty the king" said Elvin.

"There seems to be a rebellion of a very arrogant group against our kingdom, so I want to increase the number of soldiers and knights. We need to stay alert. However, we must increase the tax price in order to get capital. How's it?" That was the king's explanation of the discussion carried out by the four of them.

"..............." the prime minister Verita is still listening.

"Baginda king?, if this will not make the people more difficult and will cause turmoil among them?"elvin's advice to the King, because Elvin had thought there would be problems in the future if the tax was raised continuously every year.

"If there is no other opinion then I will make my decision, if another day there is an idea that is more brilliant than me then I will use the second idea"Mirkan.

Off Flashback.

"Well.well, I understand the prince, though I do not know about this kingdom, and its economy in detail-"

".........?"looking at Danie enthusiastically.

[He was expecting my answer?]

"But..is there no prime minister of the kingdom?"

Anyhow the royal advisor must have more information and have a solution to this problem, but in his mind why should he ask for his opinion?.

"Yes, but I want to hear the answer from the priest"still a hopeful look.

"Hmm?.....Luxury taxes?"

[However the luxury tax is helpful because of all those who have wealth and a lot of money, then they can pay it easily]it is the result, 3 short and clear sentences.

"How is the prime minister?"

[WHAT!, is there a prime minister?]

Danie was shocked by Verita's presence.

"Taxing excessive luxury goods on goods used by the nobility, and merchants may tax the luxury goods at prices including taxes. Because luxury is a tool to show off for a family. If treated like this, then the kingdom's economy will be stable without resistance and the military can also be improved" explained at length prime minister Verita.

"One time throw, two birds hit" Elvin stroked his own chin with a smile.

"Prime ministers only know, so don't take this.idea from me. That.....~, can trouble me"turned his face elsewhere, because it's like a trap. If the king finds out, it will make him for this, that is, the thing that makes him more troublesome apart from praise or whatever.

"I know the priest, it just so happens that the king orders me to come to you"

[Tu.tuh.then I said, but it really happened. What else will the old man do this time? ]

"Let's go there together"

An hour later in the king's palace.

"Good mind Prime Minister Verita, for that.This time Danie, I need your help. With this you are relieved of duty from work in the armory, as one of the 4 representatives of the Abner Sanctuary, I command you to go to the northern region there is a jacilky village,the residents there need food assistance because there are often rebels and there are hundreds of people there who need to be treated (cured) otherwise it will get worse, Prince Elvin...send 10 men to escort level 2 to Mr. Danie.2 weeks away so be prepared"King.

"Okay, my majesty, I accept your duty"Danie.

"Can be finished"King

The three men left the king's place, and then began to discuss in the middle of the road.

"The priest will be accompanied by the other three priests, the knights of my group will guard the journey of the four of you" Elvin said as the leader of the Holy Knights.

"But Mr. Danie, I warn you only a little, if the village is cold and snowy because there winter comes 4 months early, to eat meat then it must hunt. Just in case you are allowed to carry a weapon"Verita's reminder of the environmental conditions of the region that Danie and his members must handle.

"Definitely!"danie replied excitedly while holding his hand.

"Do I need to step in with the priest?"Elvin was worried, because this was the first time a child was picked up during the war Byass who was once a coward even just a centipede, but not just a centipede,now the king ordered to go out of the palace because Danie had first rank holy power in Abner's shrine.

"No need, maybe in other regions a figure like you is more needed to maintain peace there"

[Wise words are not!, I can go from the palace, at least to just train my muscles and recognize a new environment] even though in his heart he does not want to,and struggling to refuse but in fact as a lowly person can not refuse the order of the wise king.
