=======================

If you were asked to choose the man with the most outstanding personality among the citizens of the Baltarian Empire, you would naturally say the 17th Emperor of the Baltarian Empire.

Barovarosa Imperator Valtaria.

It was an object of fear for prime ministers and officials.

And he was praised as an object of respect and dignity by knights and citizens.

Strong blonde hair grown like a mane.

A long mustache that shows off arrogant pride.

And even a harsh impression that shows that he has a nervous personality.

-It’s like hitting a stone with a nail.

These are the words left by a diplomatic ambassador from a kingdom who met the emperor.

If a diplomatic ambassador from another country said that,

So what about the ministers who assist the emperor from afar?

The ministers assisting the emperor heaved a sigh of resignation every time they attended the assembly. This is because as soon as he attended the assembly, the wrath of the ruling emperor fell. Therefore, the prime ministers always kept their resignation letters in their drawers and continued their dangerous bureaucratic lives.

“Reports have already been uploaded from the Ministry of Public Security and the Ministry of the Interior… Why didn’t the Ministry of Foreign Affairs send it? I should have told you to upload it before the views started!”

“Wasn’t the Minister of Foreign Affairs dispatched to the North? That’s why it’s delayed.”

“How dare you make the emperor wait. What a great Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”

“Woe, I am so sorry.”

Barovarosa tended to show his anger even at trivial things. But recently, his rough personality has become even more vicious.

It was because of the conflict that started with the youngest daughter’s broken engagement.

Didn’t they summon all the prime ministers and go on a rampage a few days ago?

His temper even became extreme as he fought with his youngest daughter, Elisabetta, over his new engagement.

A wise man would never reveal his personal feelings in public affairs, but unfortunately Barbarossa did not fall into that category. He led the empire to its heyday with excellent selection and overwhelming dignity, but for the prime minister and officials, he was nothing short of a nightmare.

“Your Majesty, a handwritten letter has arrived from the Holy Kingdom.”

“Handwritten letter? The crafty rye bread sent Jim a letter.”

Clearly, ‘rye bread’ is a derogatory term referring to the current reigning king, Boern I.

Because Boern I was from the south, he had darker skin than other people. Barbarossa joked that it looked like the rye bread that commoners usually eat.

I’m scared that the Holy Emperor will hear this.

The ministers shrugged their shoulders at the emperor’s reckless remarks.

“Are you going to send a delegation to the imperial territory? Looks like shit is burning there too.”

A notice was written in an old-fashioned font that a delegation would be dispatched to trace the whereabouts of a missing saint in the territory of the Baltarian Empire. Surprisingly, the representative of the delegation was the first saint.

Barbarossa saw him and frowned grimly.

The disappearance of the saint’s party.

It must have been something like a lightning strike in the Holy Empire.

Moreover, Beatrice, who disappeared, was even more so because she was a saint representing the Holy Imperial Kingdom and at the same time the adopted daughter of the Holy Emperor. Even the blunt bishops must have shouted that they must find the saint as soon as they heard the sad news.

“Damn kites are causing a lot of trouble.”

Barbarossa muttered as he placed the handwritten letter down on the table.

“We will approve the proposal of Seonghwangguk. And tell them to send other kingdoms related to the saint’s party.”

“I understand, Your Majesty.”

This is not just a problem for the Baltarian Empire.

Gael’s prosperous kingdom.

Jistud Kingdom. Alond Kingdom. Duchy of Savoy.

All countries involved were watching the situation.

Therefore, Barbarossa accepted the king’s request.

This is because it was time for all countries involved in the saint’s party to cooperate. And close cooperation was necessary to respond to the numerous threats arising from the disappearance of the saint’s party.

“Your Majesty.”

“What else? You won’t leave your luggage alone.”

The Prime Minister, who had been waiting for the report, opened his mouth.

Barbarossa responded in a nervous voice.

“The princess, who went down to the east for a while, is said to be returning now.”

“Ludmilla is back!”

As Barbarossa is known for being stubborn and at the same time nicknamed “foolish daughter,” he burst into laughter as soon as he heard the news that his daughter, who had gone down to the East, was returning.

It was truly an extreme change.

He changes his attitude like flipping a coin when he hears the news that his daughter is returning.

Thanks to the good news that arrived from the east, the prime ministers were relieved of their worries for a while.

“And… It is said that the second son of the Hohenberg family is accompanying him.”

“What? Hohenberg… ?”

If she had been a child of another family, she would have joked and told her subjects to prepare a grand banquet, saying, “Our daughter is finally getting a man!” I sincerely hoped that Ludmila would get married before she turns 30.

however,

Unfortunately, the daughter’s guests were the ‘Hohenberg family’.

Those damn bastards who made my youngest daughter’s eyes, as clear as a doe, shed bloody tears. A terrible murderous intent surged at the words of the enemy’s self-restraint, which would have been inconvenient even if he were to be destroyed immediately.

With what kind of face do you come to the imperial capital?

The angry emperor let out a loud scream and knocked over all the documents on the table.

* * *

If you were to ask what the essence of the perfect fusion of magic and technology would be, nine times out of ten you would choose a locomotive powered by a horsepower engine.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the magic engine powered by the highest quality magic stone is a masterpiece created by wizards and inventors. Horsepower engine locomotives, powered by horse power engines, were the best means of transportation that ran across the Baltarian Empire from east to west, north to south.

“Train! It’s big! And there is no end in sight!”

A girl with light green hair carrying a bag like an elementary school student shouted.

It will seem like a different world.

The numerous trains stopped at the platform were truly magnificent.

Uuuung-.

A huge amount of horsepower flowed out of the engine, making a strange vibrating sound. It’s probably charging horsepower to the engine. I don’t know the detailed operating principle. This is because both my past life and my current life were in the liberal arts.

“I’m glad you’re so happy.”

Ludmilla smiled happily at the sight of Lue running around like a puppy.

Has the sediment from the first meeting been shaken off?

The princess with flowing blonde hair regarded the bold fairy as if she were her younger sister.

On the other hand, Lue still seemed to have a hard time with Ludmila.

When Ludmila stretched out her hand, she carefully dodged to the side like a crab.

“Do you also use a sword? Of course, since you are a child of a prestigious family, you must have learned swordsmanship for self-defense.”

“What… . It’s just an imitation.”

Ludmilla, who was smiling bitterly at the sight of Lue still being afraid of her, asked me as she walked next to me.

A sword hilt surrounded by purple silk.

Seeing him wearing it around his waist seemed to pique his interest.

“This is a treasured sword that my brother forced me to hand over to him one day. Now that I have left the Hohenberg family… I should at least carry it around and pretend to be a knight.”

“It suits you very well.”

The protruding hilt of the sword boasted an elegant formative beauty like an ornament.

That would be natural.

This is the Four Holy Sword of Demon Destruction.

Yellow star Aldebaran.

This is a sergeant who was forcibly handed over to his younger brother by the warrior Maximilian, who was given four holy swords by the Holy Empire. Because my damn brother arbitrarily recognized me as his master, I had no choice but to carry Aldebaran. This is because when the distance reaches its limit, the holy sword follows its owner.

‘If you meet a priest of the Holy Emperor, you must return it immediately. I knew that I would face some trouble later.’

If his identity becomes known, there will definitely be a big uproar.

Why do I have to suffer every time?

I wanted to put a bullet in his blunt face.

“When was the last time you visited the Imperial Capital?”

“Hmm… . It was probably 6 months ago.”

Although it was far away, the County of Hohenberg was connected by a railroad to the Imperial Capital, located in the center of the empire.

It takes about five days to reach the ecliptic.

Therefore, it was possible to travel to Seoul without difficulty just by using a horsepower engine locomotive.

While heading to the train stopped at the platform, I had a small chat with Ludmila. Fortunately, I was able to satisfy the princess, and her beautiful mouth was filled with a smile as bright as a crescent moon. My face turned red for a moment when I saw the beautiful woman smiling.

“This time, we specifically rented an entire locomotive. It will be a pleasant road to Seoul.”

“Yes?”

“It’s a matter of treating distinguished guests. You can’t save money like it’s a waste of time. The Valtaria imperial family never shows stinginess when it comes to their guests.”

“… … .”

I’ve heard of charter planes for travel, but this is the first time I’ve rented an entire 20-car locomotive.

It is indeed the imperial family.

Are you saying that the usage goes beyond common sense?

Even the Hohenberg family, which boasts of being the most prestigious family in the East, can’t help but feel… . Ludmilla, who had a calm personality, was surprisingly extreme in her usage. If the man who marries her will have to deal with a huge expense list first. It’s pitiful too.

“When you arrive at the imperial capital, there will be a large crowd of people welcoming guests from the east. It’s like the Hohenberg family welcomed guests from the imperial capital.”

“… I would be happy if I didn’t get scammed like that.”

I came into conflict with the imperial family.

The central nobles must also look down on the Hohenberg family, who tarnished the honor of the imperial family.

A rough and thorny road is expected.

The moment you arrive at the ecliptic, you will be greeted by numerous evil spirits.

For now, I had no choice but to rely on Ludmilla’s protection. Because he was a benefactor who protected the Hohenberg family against the Baltarian imperial family who tried to take responsibility for the breakup of the engagement. That’s why I decided to trust her.

.

.

.

.

Horsepower engine locomotives, exclusive to the upper class, boasted comfort and convenience, but the long journeys presented hardships to customers.

It’s been five days.

I couldn’t help but feel frustrated because I was only in a limited space.

But for me, five days was just a moment.

This was because I spent time thinking about how to survive in an imperial capital full of hostility.

“Take a look!”

When the locomotive finally arrived at the imperial platform, the staff opened the door to announce its arrival.

Arrived.

When I got off the locomotive, I saw a large crowd of people.

It must be a procession to welcome the princess who left for the East. Naturally, most of them were people who had nothing to do with the Hohenberg family. The crowd’s attention was focused solely on Ludmila.

“It’s been a really long time. You probably saw it at a meeting six months ago, right?”

No one would welcome a country bumpkin,

– While thinking that, I silently got off the platform with the pretty fairy.

A woman with dazzling blonde hair approached with a businesslike smile. When I met the sharp eyes of a she-cat, I froze. It was because I met a relationship that turned into a bad relationship.

“Edanant.”

An angry yet haughty voice captured my mind.

I felt dizzy for a moment at the beautiful appearance that seemed to have been forged from precious platinum into a human being.

How could I not know her?

Third princess.

Elisabetta von Valtaria.

The former fiancee of the warrior Maximilian.

A villainess who appears in ‘The Lady of White Blessing’.

I came face to face with a villainess who probably hated the Hohenberg family more than anyone else. Since I was not prepared for anything right now, I immediately became stiff upon seeing the princess.
