#549. strange?
“This is truly a swordsman’s word.”
As a member of the Black Dragon clan before being Leviathan’s general manager.
And as Noh Kang-ho.
Youin smiled bitterly.
He knew that Limon had become accustomed to such vicious means because he had dealt with the Black Dragon Clan’s various schemes over the past hundreds of years.
Of course, it was her basic, original personality that paid her back every time.
To face such a swordsman.
He was a man whose sympathy could not be suppressed.
“Anyway, the important thing is that I won’t have to worry about time anymore.”
Of course, apart from sympathy, he judged the situation calmly like the Black Dragon clan.
If the military governments that are supposed to establish the African Federation continue to strike instead of strikes, the movements of the peacekeepers will be tied up and funds will be leaked.
Even if the confrontation continued like this, it was obvious that the Seven Dragons would be in an advantage.
That’s why Youin was puzzled by Li Qingyu’s words with a slightly strange expression on his face.
“Well, I don’t know.”
“Does the princess think that this confrontation will not last long?”
“Not really.”
Li Qingyu shook his head.
More than supported the African Union.
The world federation is hard to get out of hand.
No matter how much it is because of the military government’s non-cooperation, if we cancel the aid now, the cause of pursuing peace will be colorless.
“Of course, if they give up their cause, they could start a war right away…”
“That’s unlikely.”
“I don’t know if I can even catch the swordsman, but risking a stigma just to start a war is too costly.”
“But what are you worried about?”
Right now, the World Federation will not be able to abandon its cause.
Why is she, who was more certain than anyone else, anxious about their movements?
Looking at Yo-in, who is puzzled.
Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.
“I don’t think the World Federation will stand still after being hit in the back like this.”
she knew
I don’t know if it’s another monarch.
At least one in the World Federation.
That there is a monarch who might have already predicted and perhaps been convinced of this outcome.
Still, if the reason for the several times additional funding for the peacekeeping force wasn’t pressure from other monarchs…
“…Worrying about it won’t change anything anyway.”
a bit heavy
Li Qingyu sighed.
No matter how much she is the best strategist of the Seven Dragons, there was a limit to her ability to figure out what was happening on the other side of the continent and come up with countermeasures.
After all, there is no such thing as a perfect plan.
Therefore, the important thing at this time was improvisation and information ability to respond immediately in the field.
“Now I have to trust the swordsmith and Hasneti and do what I can.”
It’s good that Limon is in Africa.
calm in my heart
She put down the teacup and picked up the paper again.
In order to make a little more useful use of the time that Limon and Hasneti earned.
* * *
‘Hmm, is it as planned.’
Reminds me of the current situation in Africa.
Limon held out his hand.
Then he thought as he took a piece of bread and stuffed the pigeon meat into it.
‘Seeing that he is sending messengers of secret love every day, he seems to be having quite a headache.’
The situation for peacekeepers stationed in the immediate vicinity of the Egyptian army was a mess.
Pascal promoted the establishment of the federation by alternating threats and appeasement for each military government, but the results were mixed.
Or come out hungry.
Add more conditions, etc.
The more Pascal complained, the more they were convinced of their superiority and demanded more support.
Gambling with one’s life knowing that one would die.
It was a game of chicken that could be played because they were generals who risked their lives on the battlefield and achieved their own power.
On the other hand, Pascal could not carelessly touch them.
The establishment of the federation will be over the water from the point of responding with force.
In that case, regardless of the justification, all the funds and supplies invested so far will be dissolved in the air, and the responsibility will be passed on to him.
Even now, because he was threatened that he would support Egypt if the support was cut off, Pascal was still crying and continuing to support supplies.
It was a bonus that Billy sneaked around Pascal’s eyes like a cockroach.
‘Well, if the military governments distribute supplies to their satisfaction, the negotiations may be concluded dramatically, but…’
He handed out bread with meat.
Limon laughed.
‘Can that be?’
Human greed has no end.
In that respect, Pascal’s biggest mistake was to hastily apply for each military government first.
As long as you are used to accepting and eating without paying. Because the military governments in Africa will really try to eat the bottom of the World Federation.
‘At this rate, I’ll be able to keep my feet tied for at least a few months.’
Either Pascal admits that his plan to establish a federation has failed and takes all the blame.
Or cut off support from the World Federation, who couldn’t stand the fruitless waste.
It was a time when Limon prayed for Pascal’s rest, remembering the catastrophe of the peacekeepers that would come one day.
“Brother. Oh, try it.”
with a sweet voice.
A spoonful of potato salad was held out in front of Limon’s eyes.
“…pretty noona, I have hands too.”
“But my brother’s hand seems to be busy right now. I will feed you instead.”
“I’ll take care of my side room’s meals, so don’t worry about it.”
The person who used Limon’s hand.
In other words, Joan of Arc did not pick up the spoon despite the words of Hasneti, who was eating the bread he offered.
I just replied with a smile on my face.
“Your Red Lizard never helped me with meals, right? So just leave it alone. I am from a farming family.”
From wounded to livestock.
There are countless experiences of feeding others.
When Limon is confused as he sees Joan of Arc talking smugly.
Hasneti said coldly.
“Does not matter. Still, my concubine would prefer to be fed by me.”
“That’s my brother’s heart.”
“If you don’t believe me, ask yourself.”
“No, you can’t. If the red lizard-sama is staring at you like that, your kind little brother won’t be able to tell you the truth.”
“That’s called speculation.”
“That attitude is called coercion.”
Hasneti with a cold face.
Joan of Arc with a smiling face.
Limon sighed as the two looked at each other without blinking.
Then he picked up a piece of bread from the table, swallowed it in one bite, and said bluntly to the two people who were looking at him.
“Now, is that okay?”
“…”
“Why do you look disappointed?”
“Your brother don’t like me feeding him?”
Like a puppy that licked the back of your hand and was rejected.
Looking at Joan of Arc asking sullenly, Limon scratched his cheek involuntarily.
“Rather than hating it… I mean, don’t worry because you can eat my own food.”
“Ah, did you take care of me? After all, my younger brother is kind.”
It’s like you’ve been disappointed.
After quickly regaining his energy and returning with a smile on his face.
Joan of Arc served out a plate of potato salad at all this time.
“Then try eating it yourself, brother. It’s a salad I made with my own canned potatoes.”
“No, that’s…”
“Don’t look at me. No matter how narrow-minded you are, Red Lizard-nim, it won’t be enough to give glare to your little sister, even the things she eats herself.”
“…”
Limon broke out in a cold sweat.
I sincerely believe so.
It was because I was speechless when I saw Jeanne d’Arc’s unwavering blue eyes.
All the more, if I refuse here, it will be like admitting that Hasneti is narrow-minded.
“You can eat it.”
“Pharaoh?”
“I have a narrow stomach.”
“Ah… yes.”
Is it because I noticed the difficulty?
Or maybe it’s because I’m angry at being treated narrowly.
Joan of Arc glared at her and even let out a sigh at Hasneti’s instructions, which forced rather than permitted.
After all, I opened my spoon and ate the potato salad.
Limon commented briefly.
“…delicious.”
“Yes? I am confident in that one potato dish.”
Even on the battlefield, his cooking was well received.
Seeing Joan of Arc boasting with a smile, Hasneti made a colder expression.
“When it comes to cooking, I can feed hundreds of things for every meal.”
“Well, after all, it’s a dish you made for others to make, right?”
“It’s better than being unable to cook anything but potatoes.”
That moment.
The warmth disappeared from the always gentle face of Joan of Arc.
“Red Lizard’s potatoes are a great crop. It is enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people only with potatoes even in a drought.”
A beautiful smiling face.
still soft voice.
“But if the king of a country doesn’t value an important crop like potatoes…”
But with eyes that don’t smile.
Looking straight at Hasneti.
Joan of Arc finished her speech calmly.
“—Dying?”
That’s the Sword Master’s warning.
It’s absolutely silent and
therefore more creepy.
A cool gaze that would make most people pass out and urinate just by looking at it.
However, despite receiving her gaze, Hasneti did not raise an eyebrow.
Rather, it was just a cold smile.
“If you want to kill me, try to kill me. At that moment, Apophis, which produces 80% of the potatoes consumed worldwide, will also close down.”
That word was enough.
To make Joan of Arc’s eyes, which had been calm until a while ago, shake as if an earthquake had struck.
“…Isn’t that threat a bit petty?”
“I was just telling the truth.”
“That’s…”
“Maybe after that, instead of taking revenge, my clan will make potatoes extinct in the world.”
“Is Red Lizard the devil!”
“No, they are descendants of dragons.”
“…”
Should I laugh at this?
Or should I cry
The owner of the world’s largest food company that threatens with potatoes.
The sword master staggered in shock at the threat.
Since each other is so serious, it’s a while to look at the more absurd skit with absurd eyes.
‘…Hmm.’
Suddenly.
Limon narrowed his eyes.
‘Did this guy just give up?’
I’m sure you’ve heard that the peacekeeping force’s plan to establish an African chain of events was swindled.
Are you still chasing after yourself?
It was rather futile for Limon, who even had insurance in case something went wrong.
Of course, it would have been better for the three sword masters to give up so meekly than to just turn a blind eye and go on a
rampage…
Was it really the personality that knew that his first disciple was resignation?
It was when Limon put on a very suspicious expression.
“Go Princess! It’s a big deal!”
“What is going on?”
opening the barracks.
Nadia jumped in.
Even though she was a bit clumsy on the outside, she was thorough as an aide. Why did she commit such rudeness?
To her princess who asked pure questions rather than anger.
The girl in the baggy military uniform shouted with a pale face.
“There is a civil war in my country!”
At that moment
, Limon saw.
Like a farm girl who saw a good harvest.
It came to Joan of Arc’s face.
clearer and more beautiful.
That’s why it’s more bewitching.
– The winner’s smile.
