Chapter 11 Two Vanadis

---~~~###page 120###~~~----

Ellen; Tigrewyrmd Voln has defeated Zion Thenardier!

box; Tigre and Ellen, who had defeated the Thenardier army lead by the supreme commander Zion,
box; drunk to their victory at the banquet that evening

box; However, from the next day, they turned over a new leaf and redirected their focus on reconstructing the town.

box; As Ellen soldiers were also helping,
box; they were able to build the fundementals in the reconstruction of the town by the next day----

---~~~###page 121###~~~----

tita; all right!

---~~~###page 122###~~~----

tita; good morning tigre-sama.

tita; !

tita; Tigre-sama!

---~~~###page 123###~~~----

tita; ........

ellen; Um, I'm sorry.... // I didn't intend on threatening him.

tita; then what did you plan on doing!

---~~~###page 124###~~~----

ellen; w, well that's because
ellen; I heard before that this guy // wouldn't wake up at all until a sword was shoved into his mouth you see?

tita; if you do such a thing, what would you do if someone got hurt!

tigre; well... calm down. // It's not like Ellen means any harm.

tigre; but really, you've discovered quite the troublesome side of me

ellen; indeed.

tita; Tigre-sama!

---~~~###page 125###~~~----

tigre; by the way--- // what's the matter so early in the morning?

ellen; well.....

ellen; I thought I'd ask
ellen; what you plan on doing after I leave this place

---~~~###page 126###~~~----

tigre; from now on.....?
tigre (thinks); ----I don't think that duke Thenardier will leave me alone,
tigre (thinks); because I defeated Zion, the duke's heir

tigre (thinks); If Duke Thenardier's household, that has been a renown noble family since the ancient times, chose to gather the military force of their relatives, many of which are nobles,
tigre (thinks); that number would be exceed 30.000.

tigre (thinks); but, in Alsace, the military power we possess is,
tigre (thinks); a mere 300... even if we were to gather all the young men

tigre (thinks); what on earth should I do....... // what should I do......

---~~~###page 127###~~~----

ellen; Your face is saying you at a loss of what to do

ellen; decide what would you do the next time we meet.

ellen; I will be bring back most of the soldiers,
ellen; but in the meant time, I'm going to leave rim as governor.

---~~~###page 128###~~~----

tigre; governor?
ellen; because this land is mine now.
small text; your position is as rim assistant
tigre; but even so, // you're saying I should decide on what's going to happen?

ellen; Rim and I don't hold back when exploiting talent

---~~~###page 129###~~~----

ellen; it seems that this fellow is also saying so.

tigre; ........

box; after the battle at Molsheim plains---

ellen; It seems that arifar has also taking a liking to you.

tigre; ...... you talk as if,
tigre; that sword has it's own thoughts.

---~~~###page 130###~~~----

ellen; that's right
ellen; even this fellow has proper thoughts
ellen; more importantly, // just what is your bow?

ellen; that bow responded to this "silver flash"----

tigre; .....is this perhaps similar to that "viralt" stuff?
ellen; no.

ellen; there is no bow among the viralt possessed by seven vanadis.

ellen; but, // that is not to say there isn't some other legend about that weapon...

---~~~###page 131###~~~----

tigre; ---at that time, a voice that rang in my head.
tigre; this is no ordinary bow.

tigre; what in the world,
tigre; are you?

---~~~###page 132###~~~----

ellen; rim.

---~~~###page 133###~~~----

ellen; Are you selecting soldiers?

rim; I select rurik as commander of about a hundred cavaleries.
ellen; alright.

ellen; I'll return after I silence the king, so I'll leave everything to you til then

rim; ......... Elenora-sama, you // really trust him a lot

---~~~###page 134###~~~----

ellen; Don't you think so too?
rim; although that I have acknowledged him, // it not on the level of trust.

ellen; I got it, I got it.

ellen; anyway, I'll leave it up to you so, help Tigre

rim; although I wanted to avoid any involvement of this manner,
rim; it can't be helped.............

rim (thinks); that battle at molsheim plain, changed the situation significantly----

---~~~###page 135###~~~----

rim (thinks); that bow of tigre's that had the ability to connect with the Silver Flash, Arifar and penetrate a Vifl flying high in the sky

rim (thinks); if the other vanadis know the existence of him and that bow there is no mistake that they will try to get it----

rim (thinks); If you think about it like that, helping him would be the best outcome......

rim (thinks); but, for vanadis of the Zhcted to intervene with a civil war in Brune,
rim (thinks); of course that it will not just produce small ripple.

rim; it's for Elenora-sama's sake,
rim; I'll do what I can.

---~~~###page 136###~~~----

box; Zhcted Imperial Capital, Silsia.

soldier; Elenora Viltaria-sama.
soldier; for formalities sake, could you please show your viralt

---~~~###page 137###~~~----

ellen; You did well, spotting it was me right away

ellen; did the other vanadis come?
small text; yes
soldier; Ludmila Lourie-sama and Sophia Obertas-sama the one that come.
ellen; I see.

ellen (thinks); -----not only Sophia, but Ludmila has come too.....
ellen; Well no matter, // I should settle the troublesome business first.

---~~~###page 138###~~~----

---~~~###page 139###~~~----

king; raise your face.

---~~~###page 140###~~~----

king; master of arifar, the shining slasher of demons // Ellenora Viltaria.

king; I heard that you advanced your army into Brune teritory without permission, // is it true?

ellen; it is as your majesty says.
king; Do speak if there is a reason for that

---~~~###page 141###~~~----

ellen; I would like to get, // your majesty's pardon.

ellen; I was hired.

king; hired? // ...... by whom?

---~~~###page 142###~~~----

ellen; Earl Tigrewyrmd Voln. // he is aristocrat of Brune and lord of Alsace.
ellen; because of his request, I sent a thousand of my soldiers.

king; For a vanadis to act like a mercenary is......

ellen; Our principality, Leitmeritz, shares a border with Brune. // in the case civil war breaks out in Brune, Lord Voln hired us

ellen; so Alsace can be used as a shield.

---~~~###page 143###~~~----

king; to say that the sparks of a civil war will fly, // isn't it nothing but conjecture?

ellen; Lord Thenardier is someone who invades other's teritories unjustly, // he's the type who is likely to spread chaos as a pastime!
ellen; moreover, // Reason lies on Lord Voln's side as---

king; in the end, what you did was invade Brune!
king; that will be likely to induce Zchted and Brune crossing swords!!

king; I don't want anything to do with Brune!
ellen; .......your,

---~~~###page 144###~~~----

sophia; with all due respect, I greet Your Majesty.
king; ........ master of the "Zat"*, Sophia Obertas?

*pure carapace of exorcism

---~~~###page 145###~~~----

ellen; ........

sophia; historically, // there were a lot of cases that borrowed the power of other kingdoms to fight for their internal hegemony.

sophia; For princess Ellenora, Lord Voln's request, // should still be in the confines of Leitmeritz's power, shouldn't it.
sophia; It is indeed a problem that she delayed conveying this to your majesty, // however, the concept known as war, has always honoured haste over preparation
sophia; it is something that is unavoidable.

---~~~###page 146###~~~----

sophia; even if brune's supreme ruler is on the verge of being decided now, // it's not something that will increase our enemies.
sophia; if the question our motives
sophia; we can just explain the situation at that time
sophia; and if the were to attack us anyway despite that
sophia; I will personally welcome them.

---~~~###page 147###~~~----

king; .......are you saying // I should let Ellenora to do as she likes?

sophia; the surrounding kingdoms will also intervene with the civil war in brune sooner or later, // if you were to punish her here, it would instead be throwing away our advantage to other kingdoms.

king; ........

king; Ellenora, // what is Lord Voln's goal?

ellen; to quote him,
ellen; the peace of Alsace.

---~~~###page 148###~~~----

king; ........ // then for the sake of peace, in the situation Lord Voln defeats Lord Thenardier and obtains their territories-----

king; would your compension include some of that territory?

ellen (thoughts); -----so in the end, this is what he was on about

ellen; in the case I get some territory, I will present it all to you, your majesty.


ellen; all of the people here will be our witnesses.

---~~~###page 149###~~~----

king; ........ very well. // I'll leave the Earl of Alsace's matter to you.

king; I have no intention of // intervening in the civil war in Brune right now.

king; You should consider Zchted national interests first and foremost, // and restrain from doing anything rash.

---~~~###page 150###~~~----

ellen; I need to thank Sophia.......

---~~~###page 151###~~~----

ludmila; you are still as shameful as ever, Ellenora.

ellen; .......you too,

---~~~###page 152###~~~----

ellen; you haven't matured at all,
ellen; Ludmila
