The Strategy of the Wisdom of the Empire
Guided by Xiaolei, Mia arrived at the large room where all the Clan Chiefs had gathered. Based on the structure of the building, Mia had assud that there would be a huge round table set up. However, she found all the Chiefs seated on the carpet laid out on the floor.
Hmm, so these are the Chiefs of the Equestrian Kingdom
Mia thought to herself, resolving to morise each face as much as possible. Her attention was then drawn to Fuu Kouma, the Wind Clan Chief, who sat majestically in the innermost part of the room.
Am I supposed to greet him?
Mia knew from her various experiences that personal connections and etiquette were the foundations of support that could save soone in their mont of trouble.
While it would be foolish to rely solely on them, it was better to have that support than not. It would be advantageous to borrow Elder Koumas support to ensure that the current discussion progressed smoothly.
Hmm. In any case, it seems that no one has any particular interest in . That is indeed preferable. However, what should I do?
If I call out to Elder Kouma now, I will definitely stand out. But is it a good idea to easily let go of this position where I draw no attention?
Mia hesitated for a mont before making up her mind.
Hmm. I will surely end up standing out a little, but I think it is better to greet him here.
Having made the decision, Mia spoke up promptly.
Good day, Elder Kouma. Thank you for your hospitality yesterday.
Well, well, if it isnt Her Highness Princess Mia. I too had a very good ti yesterday. The suggestion of topping the Banizia with sweet fruits was especially an excellent idea.
Hehehe. Even I did not expect it would go so well with it. I had a delightful ti and would be happy to have the opportunity to spend ti together with you again. Next ti, I would like to invite you to the Empire and treat you to a grand feast.
Hahaha. I see. Well then, I shall look forward to it.
After that, Koumas smile disappeared, and he stared intently at Mia.
However, I must apologise for causing you the trouble of coming all the way here today, especially considering that it is a problem between the blood relatives of the Equestrian Kingdom, and we must resolve it amongst ourselves. So, there is really not much for you to say.
Mia was slightly moved by Koumas words!
Oh, Im being treated like an outsider this ti. Moreover, Kouma-san seems to be very motivated. Even if Im not here, the others can take care of it. I could not be happier.
Mia couldnt help but feel grateful to Kouma, who told her that they would solve their own problems and not bother her.
Originally, Mias plan was to have them solve the problem where her involvent wasnt that necessary, giving her ti to think of a way to deal with the Serpent Priestess. Therefore, if there was no need for her to intervene, then there was nothing better than that.
Be that as it may, the problem did involve Abels sister and Aima, who for so reason called her a friend. If, by any chance, it was treated as sothing that was resolved just within the Equestrian Kingdom, it would be troubleso and probably leave a very bad aftertaste.
Serpent mbers could be amongst the Clan Chiefs. It was important to firmly control the situation. For that purpose
Mia looked in Aimas direction.
No. If theres even a small thing that I can help with, I would like to do my best. Its for my friend, after all. Its no trouble at all.
First, Mia gave a subtle warning that she wouldnt be silent if her friend was treated irresponsibly. Then, Mia turned her gaze towards Rafina.
Also, another friend of mine, Rafina-sama, is extrely concerned about this matter. She wishes to resolve it in the best possible way. Therefore, I cannot help but lend my support as well.
Mia casually ntioned that she would just be helping, but emphasised that Rafina would be intervening in the matter.
Mia had a good understanding of what would happen if any injustice was committed in front of Rafina. In case there were any Serpent mbers, they would not be able to interfere easily in her presence.
I really need Rafina to do her best, thats why I chose those words to motivate her.
When Mia spoke to Rafina, she smiled softly for a brief mont before returning to her usual sharp and prim expression.
Thank you, Mia-san. I will do my best to resolve this dispute.
Rafina replied in a determined voice.
Unnoticed by those present, her eyes were slightly moist with emotion.
There was another person who was highly impressed: Mayun, who had been watching the entire series of exchanges take place.
What brilliance! Is this the Wisdom of the Empire?
Her presence should have been completely irrelevant due to yesterdays failure. However, look at her now. All the Clans Chiefs gazes are drawn to Princess Mia. When I heard that she was invited to the Wind Clan banquet, I thought that Elder Kouma was planning so sche but
Fuu Kouma was the eldest of the Twelve Clan Chiefs and the person in charge of the eting. Mia forcefully reminded the other Chiefs that she had been invited by Elder Kouma and had participated in the Wind Clan banquet.
After all, Mia had entered the Southern Capital escorted by Kouma!
She used her own actions to diminish her speaking power with the aim of a complete reversal to regain that power. What a brilliant strategy!
Mayun was rendered speechless by the extrely intricate and intense strategic conversation that unfolded before him.
Mayun thought of himself as a man of tricks. However, in comparison to the exchange that played out before his eyes, he realised that his strategies were re childs play.
I see. So this is the Wisdom of the Empire. She knew that a complete recovery was possible, and thats why she accepted Koumas escort into the castle that day.
Mayun could not conceal his awe at Mias unfathomable talent.
