“Yes, they say we're waging war against the surrounding country.”
"Hmm, what do people think about that?"
"Are you a foreign customer?"
"Oh, I'm traveling.I was wondering what to do because it stinks. "
"Oh, I see. Yeah, I see.We're all in trouble. "
What do you mean, trouble?
"War costs money, doesn't it?Where do you think that money is coming from? "
Gaius only thought for a moment and answered immediately.
"National taxes"
Then the female clerk said with a rather annoying face.
"Yes! That means our lives are being oppressed.That's why, to be honest, we all want to stop the war. "
"The king did change five years ago, didn't he?Then I heard they started invading other countries. "
The female clerk nodded loudly.
"Yeah, that's right. But it's strange."
Huh? Strange to say?
"The new king was originally a very mature prince.And then, as soon as I became king, I started waging war on the neighboring countries, focusing on the military as if people had changed. "
"Oh, that's an interesting story."
Gaius narrowed his eyes and made a difficult look.
