Celes talked about the second matter of business.
「In regards to the Greenwood Kingdom, I thought that it would be best if I told you the Magician’s Guild’s plans.」
Certainly, the Magician’s Guild can’t be ignored as war potential.
He needed to get an understanding of how they would move.
Celes didn’t seem to proactively desire a war with the Elves, but this was probably a situation where she had no choice but to take action.
She continued her speech.
「The Magician’s Guild will bear a part of the responsibility in regards to the protection of the town. That is why, at the time damages befall the town, we will be cooperating with the army. And then, since I am inexperience with battle, I believe the actual command will be entrusted to the Feudal Lord.」
He clicked his tongue in his mind.
So, in other words, when the Feudal Lord mobilizes the army, they will be going along with them.
Going by that facial expression of hers, he could tell that Celes didn’t desire the war and that she lamented over the people of the Magician’s Guild fighting in accordance with the Feudal Lord.
He didn’t want to get her involved.
For that reason, he had to precede to a situation where the Feudal Lord wouldn’t mobilize the army.
Avoiding war was essential.
Diablo drank up the cooled down coffee.
「From the beginning, we accepted the request in order to avoid the war with the Greenwood Kingdom. The Magician’s Guild and the army will have no part to play. It’s because the Elves won’t be appearing in front of Faltra City.」
「Thank you……Having that said by you, it’s very relieving.」
Celes wiped the tears that were at the corner of her eye.
Hopes were placed on him.
──Though, in actuality, I’m still in the middle of thinking about how I’m going to avoid this war.
