You are speaking strange things. Since you said that you can do it, all I said was that I see.
Certainly, you are eccentric.
Haha. Arent you the eccentric one for showing up here to help, knowing exactly what was going on?
I was left with no words to say when I heard that.
Although Ive heard it from Margareta, Id like to hear it one more ti, directly from you.
Of course.
After nodding her head, Walpurgis drank her tea with a straw placed through the opening in her helt, and began to explain what was going on.
The story was both straightforward and complicated.
There was a city called, Passau, within her territory of Niederbayern. Famously known for producing swords, the swords with the mark of the running wolf of Passau were highly regarded, not only within the empire, but in foreign countries as well.
Furthermore, they were popular even in the demon kings territories. Then about three months ago, a nurous number of swords which were produced in Passau were sold to Roselant, the territory of Roelin.
rchant Ignis was in charge of the sale. He was the rchant who was responsible for carrying out consignnt sales for Passaus sword producers.
However, the proceeds from the sales were not necessarily paid imdiately.
About a month ago, after staying in Roselant, the Ignis rchants were on their way back to Passau, carrying the sales proceeds, and many trade rchandise items that were obtained from Roselant. It was a total of 12 horse carriages.
But then the knight family had raided them?
Correct. It was the Rajter knight family. They are despicable bastards.
After leaving Roselant, they were heading north when they were raided as they were passing through Salzburg. Then thats where a problem occurred. The embargo order was issued two months ago by the emperor, but the transaction had actually taken place prior to the embargo order.
It was only that the sales proceeds were paid after the embargo order had been issued. Naturally, the issue arose with respect to whether or not the order could be proactively enforced.
What an irresponsible act of recklessness it was unlike how cultured people behaved. How could the so called knights of the empire have attacked and stolen from the rchants. So, the Ignis rchant had co to and asked for help.
If it was her, she probably has gotten involved imdiately. Caring deeply, by nature, for her family mbers, there was no way that Walpurgis would have let it pass without taking any action.
But then another issue arose from there. As Walpurgis moved forward to put pressure on Rajter knight family, the archbishop of Salzburg interjected, citing his territorial domain. That was, that it took place in his front yard.
The archbishop of Salzburg is one of the pro mbers of the emperor. As a result, he took the side of the Rajter knight family. Currently, the confiscated items are in the Salzburg courts. It has beco an official confiscation by the empire.
So, youve sought assistance from your uncle, the feudal lord of Bayern?
In response to that, Walpurgis called and involved her uncle. With the appearance of the majestic feudal lord of Bayern, the situation, again, turned in favor of Walpurgis. However, that wasnt the end of it.
Those bastards have squealed it to the emperor about it, this ti.
What was a fight between kids have now evolved into a full blown between adults.
And even the emperor has beco involved. Ultimately, the situation has beco a roaring fight between the feudal lord of Bayern and the emperor. However, there was one more card to play by the emperor.
However, for so reason or another, the feudal lord of Sachsen interjected and stood on the side of the emperor.
That was, a new feudal lord has entered the stage. It was Johann Georg, the feudal lord of Sachsen, who got involved. As a result, the balance of power tilted again in their favor.
Therefore, Walpurgis was being pressured to agree to unfavorable conditions at the present ti. It was sothing that was extrely frustrating for her.
They are pure robbers. In the na of an agreent, their hidden intention is to snatch up all of Ignis rchants money and rchandise.
As a reaction, Walpurgis sent a SOS to Roelin, the demon queen, and Roelin was about to join in. The situation has beco out of control, like a growing snowball, rolling down a mountain.
To summarize it simply, it was like this.
The Emperor VS The feudal lord of Bayern
The feudal lord of Sachsen VS The feudal lord of Niederbayern
The archbishop of Salzburg VS Roselants demon queen
Rajter knight family VS Ignis rchant
In other words, a big 4:4 match.
There was no wonder why the empires focus was all on this matter. Summarizing just the nas of the major players was this striking, and there were even more notable aristocrats who had gotten involved indirectly by casting their supports.
The weekly and daily publications were popular with the pamphlets, covering this story within the empire. Everyone was having a ball.
It wouldnt be so bad if that was all. If it was to continue down this path, sothing that no one wants to imagine might happen.
It wouldnt even be strange if a great war was to break out 5 years earlier than anticipated, at this rate. The Great War between the humans and demons did not start because of discords to begin with.
