Intermission 2: The Queen has Confidence

“Then Nilda is a member of the Guzzle House without a doubt?”

The Queen checked with the plump middle-aged noble sitting across her, who then nodded his sweaty head.

“Y- Yes. Of that there is no doubt. I have always been serving here in the Capital, so I have not confirmed it with my own eyes, but we actually do have an attested copy of the ‘Roll of Names’. Please address the Marquis directly, if you wish to confirm it.”

He replied with a resolute tone.

“Yes, I shall allow myself to do so later on. It is not like I am doubting the Guzzle House, but the name Nilda Guzzle is not listed on our ’Roll of Names’.”

“I- Impossible…”

Taken by surprise, the middle-aged noble agitatedly shook his round head with a double chin.

“Calm down, Sir Severo. I will repeat myself: I am not doubting the Guzzle House. Marquis Guzzle found out about Nilda during the previous war, correct? So a natural explanation could be that there was a discrepancy in the communication during all the commotion of the war.”

Aura maintained her composure as she reassured the round-faced noble of middle age called Severo.

Severo was a vassal serving Marquis Guzzle, tasked with the position as his representative in the Capital. It goes without saying that it was one of the best appointments amongst the vassals of the Guzzle House.

It might be easier to understand, when comparing it with the Karou of Edo Japan, representatives of the Feudal Lords dispatched to the Shogun in Edo.

Anyway, Severo calmed down a bit in light of the words from the Queen and answered while wiping the sweat of his forehead with a handkerchief.

“C- Certainly. I apologize for losing my composure just now.”

“I do not blame you. It is quite the surprise for me as well.”

“Hearing that gives me a little peace of mind.”

“Good. I have no intention to stir up the matter, but a mistake in the ‘Roll of Names’ can by no means be overlooked. I wish to resolve this situation as quickly as possible. Depending on the circumstances, I may have to ‘leap’ a messenger from here to the March of Guzzle, so prepare accordingly.”

“V- Very well!”

Severo lowered his head so deeply it looked like he was folding his corpulent body.
