Chapter 611: 611 - - 第六百十一话 今のところ……

"Are you just being opportunistic? ......"

Almond was in his office, smiling bitterly. The movements of the nobles of the Lamaron Empire had exceeded his expectations, and no one had made a move.

"I feel sorry for the Marquis of Tskaka, but, well, that's him. He will not move."

He already knew the movements of the nobles, including the Marquis of Tskaka and Siaki, in detail. He knew who and what their highnesses Ojan and Krajala had ordered them to do.

They are all just talkers. His Highness Ohan had ordered not only the Marquis of Tskaka but also all the nobles who might be useful to him to support his succession to the throne. On the other hand, Clahara also repeatedly contacted the nobles whom Auchan might approach and nudged them not to accept his advances.

......Well, that's just like the Imperial Kingdom.

Almond mutters to himself. His expectation was that there would be at least one rebellion in the imperial army, but so far no such movement has been seen. This means that there is a lack of communication between the upper echelons of the military and the junior officers.

The upper echelons of the military, which are made up of aristocrats, and the junior officers, so to speak, who are mostly recruited from the ranks of the commoners, have fundamentally different ways of thinking. The nobles regard the enlisted men as their pawns, while the enlisted men despise them. Therefore, the enlisted men are obedient on the surface, but in their hearts, they have no desire to obey the nobles. They are proud of being professionals in battle. They are right in that, no matter how much the nobles encourage them, they cannot fight a war without their enlisted men.

Almond was satisfied. The privates did not move. It was no exaggeration to say that the Lamaronean army was now in Almond's hands. He got up and went to the Prime Minister Madeleine.

"...... Oh, Commander-in-Chief! I was just on my way to you.

"To me?"

"Yes. But your coming has saved me a lot of trouble. I look forward to working with you in the Imperial Army.

What do you mean?

"No, no, now, by order of His Majesty, I am announcing that the next emperor will be Master Falco."

Now, sir?

Yes. We must not miss this opportunity. If you ask me, I'm a member of the Imperial Guard. ....... No, I have heard that there is no one in the Imperial Guard who would join His Highness Prince Aukhan and His Highness Prince Clahara.

"Where did the Prime Minister get that from ......?"

"Ho-ho-ho, the longer you live, the better your hearing gets."

The Prime Minister shrugged his shoulders and smiled mischievously.

The story of the underlings had been brought to Almond's attention only a few minutes before. The Prime Minister had obtained them at about the same time. Or, if he was wrong, he may have even obtained the information before he did.

Almond instantly wondered if General Caries had leaked the information, but it was safe to say that this was not the case. He was glad to know that this was not the case, for he was sure that the General would have heard the report at this very moment. Just before Almond left the room, he ordered his subordinates to report to the general.

The Prime Minister must have a deep intelligence network in the Imperial Army as well.

Almond felt a slight chill when he saw the Prime Minister's superior intelligence-gathering abilities, something he had been aware of for some time.

Madeline is still smiling softly at him.

"Well, we are going to be busy from now on. I look forward to working with you and the Imperial Army.

Madeline then stands up with a yodel. Then he left the room.

The room was empty.

Madlin acted quickly. Only thirty minutes after his meeting with Almond, he announced that Falco would be the next emperor. Almond was taken aback by this precaution and immediately ordered his men to tighten the security of the capital.

The news of the Emperor-elect's decision was quickly spread among the nobles and caused a great uproar. The undone imperial decree was signed by the current emperor, Lamarckon Crow Fraenneis, and even had his personal seal carefully stamped on it. Anyone who objected to it was considered to be in rebellion against the emperor and, by extension, against the nation. The nobles were very upset, but most of them had no choice but to keep their voices down and watch what was going on.

"It went well, didn't it?

Marshal Caries, Prime Minister Madrin, and Commander Almond had a discussion in the Prime Minister's office. Two weeks had passed since the announcement, and so far there had been no outspoken opposition.

"I hope this is not the calm before the storm."

General Caries stares off into the distance.

"He says it will not end like this."

No, I didn't say that.

"I have a hunch that the General will be right."

Madeline smiled as she said this and turned her gaze to Almond.

"You can never be too careful."

Almond nodded slowly. General Caries waved his hand with an annoyed expression on his face.

"No, there's no need to exaggerate. No, there is no need to make a big deal out of it. It's fine the way it is now. It's not that anything has happened.

"With all due respect, General. It's too late for that to happen. We have to put out the fire before it happens.

As always, Almond is a hard man to please.

"...... However, from what I understand, there has been no significant movement on the part of His Highness O'Han so far. On the other hand, His Highness Prince Clahara is said to be so shocked that he has fallen asleep.

"I think it is more accurate to say that he is crying a lot, and then he is delirious and locked up in his room."

"...... You speak as if you have seen it all, Prime Minister."

"No, no, no, I can easily guess his highness's temperament."

Almond glanced at the Prime Minister's expression, but then let out a slow breath and continued.

"As for the Imperial Army, there has been no noticeable movement in the upper echelons of the military, including the Marquis of Tskaka and the Marquis of Siaki. Nevertheless, there are reports of exchanges here and there, so we will keep a close watch on them."

"I would appreciate it if you would. Thank you for your cooperation.

Madeline bows her head reverently.

"I am still amazed at the skill of the Prime Minister. The inscription on that edict was undoubtedly written in His Majesty's hand. I'm amazed that he signed it.

"Ho-ho-ho. Well, I guess it's just a coincidence."

What do you mean, "by chance"?　I hear that His Majesty is currently in a state of personal crisis. I thought there was no way His Majesty could sign something like that. ......"

"You're very perceptive, General. No, it just so happens that the imperial edict is in my possession. That's all."

"The imperial edict is at hand?　I don't know more and more."

"No, it was a long time ago. ....... His Majesty once fell ill. At that time, we received a blank imperial decree from His Majesty. In case something should happen to him. ....... I used it this time.

"The Prime Minister's mouthpiece ......, no, his rooting is excellent."

As soon as Caries finished speaking, a man entered the room and muttered something in Madeline's ear. The Prime Minister's expression changed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, His Majesty has just passed away.
