"Lord Shane Sereno, may I ask you one thing? Whoever said they'd be interested in the military, they just gave you money. Yes. Goodbye, you wouldn't say anything, would you?
"I don't know how to put it, but I also have some knowledge of the military, albeit slight. I wish I could join you as a military teacher, including our gestures."
"That's fine. But one more thing. What do you think of the ultimate goal of this joint army?"
Shane Sereno answered Alphilis's query with a smile without staring.
"Our threat is eliminated, starting with the orcs."
"... I see. Excuse me."
"No. Your mercenary regiment is quite active and full of rumors. We can count on you, even the Combined Forces, right?
"As long as the reward is solid"
Alphilis responded with a smile to Shane Sereno's inquiry, but Ray fans were discerning that it was not meant to be.
And the meeting that day did not wait for the afternoon, but was dissolved early. To the magnitude of the agenda, other things are no longer talked about. Ray fans were also returning to the holding room with an alpha lease as each country offered to sit in the middle.
"Alphilis, what are you going to do?
"What do we do, what?
"Don't blur. I'm asking if you intend to join the Joint Service. No, first of all, do you agree with the Combined Forces themselves?"
Alphilis returned the question without comment.
"It's the Ray fans and the envoys from all over the country who decide that, isn't it? But there doesn't seem to be that many options left."
"Yeah, that's right. That's what happened. The Combined Forces will have to wake you. That too, at the initiative of Shane Sereno. The lead appears to have been transferred to King Dryan, but the substantive leader will be Shane Sereno. Someone needs an assistant to put the humans together. I or His Highness Muse thought I would do it, but it was faster to root over there. Too bad."
"... that root, maybe since before the meeting"
Ray fans were also nodding at the words that Alphilis brought to the pompous.
"Yeah, probably. Both I and His Highness Muse moved quite a bit behind it and felt at ease. Even if I had worked from holding the meeting without sleeping, I would not have achieved more than I currently do. It is impossible to create that many endorsers just for the duration of the meeting. It didn't even look like I used magic.
When that happens, I've been reading about this development since before the meeting started, and I just think it was moving with the intention of getting the coalition involved from the start. "
"It's supposed to be a peace conference to explore peaceful solutions, but you mean belligerent to the looks and backs of grown-ups. And then the timing is just as good as I intended. One possibility is that Shane Sereno and Swendle might be close."
"No way? What's in it for you to do that?
"You might not get it. However, they may both be related to black magicians"
To the words of Alphilis, Ray fans took their breath. Enemy to be conquered by the most powerful heads of state on the continent - wouldn't it be impossible to defeat black magicians in the first place if such a stupid thing were happening? Such a desperate thought came at the back of Ray Fan's brain, but Alphilis gently placed his hand on Ray Fan's shoulder.
"Don't worry. It's not a good situation, but it's something that's within our imagination. Rayfan, I'll just tell you about the upcoming operation. All you have to think about is eating into the center of the Army. Shane, you can't let Sereno do this any more."
"That's right, but what's Alfi going to do?
"You do the same thing as them. I'll be in Romansland."
"!? Alfi, are you kidding..."
When Alphilis smiled and smiled at Ray fans, he told them of the upcoming operation.
