Chapter 224: Prevarication 1

"You're very welcome, honorable envoy of the Floating Continent!" the Chief Military Minister stood up at the sight of Illusory Dream and gave a standard military salute - Illusory Dream thought that he was going to give him that hug as well. Looking at his tiger's back, if he really hugged him, the dream would probably be pinched and deformed.

"Hello. Dream nodded and said—however, before she could continue, the Minister of War greeted her warmly, and arranged the four of them in their seats.

"I wonder what you have ordered when you come here?" asked the Minister of War, standing respectfully beside Dream.

…… Does this guy really not know what he came for?

Well, let's just assume he doesn't know. Dream told the Minister of War his wishes again—and he doubted that his shallow words would be able to convince the King in front of him to consider him a "stubborn" Minister of War.

"What you said is so reasonable!" After listening to the remarks of the illusion dream, the military minister was so impressed that he fell to the ground, "I once heard a saying, called 'the authorities are confused, and the bystanders are clear', you are really the clearest of the clear!"

…… Wait, you were persuaded by yourself?Phantom looked at the military minister in front of him suspiciously. This guy doesn't look like he's going to be persuaded by two sentences? No, it's not just him, it's not like the previous king, is it?

Dream thought something was strange - were these two men telling the truth?

It was the previous king, having agreed with his opinion, that he turned his attention to the military minister...... So, if the words of this military minister are to be ...... next?

"In this war, the soldiers have suffered heavy casualties, and I am very reluctant to let it happen!" said the Minister of War, who did not seem to be very sincere, "However, this war cannot be stopped by my power!"

"Don't you have a talisman in your hand, as long as you use the talisman to give orders to the army, you can get them to withdraw, right?" asked Dream, "Do you have to consult with the other military ministers?"

"Not really. The military minister waved his hand and said, "But, you must know that if you want the war to stop, you can't just let the army retreat. Because, it is not the soldiers themselves who start the war, but also the interests. ”

…… There is nothing wrong with this statement, although the soldier is a unit of war, but it is not the cause of war.

"If you want to end the war, you have to start with profits. The Minister of War said, "Profit is the cause of everything! It is the Chancellor of the Exchequer who is fueling this war! It is they who are not satisfied with the existing interests that they will wage war against the country of mountains! They want to seize the land there! Occupy the resources there!"

"However, it is you who hold the actual command of the army......" Fantasy wanted to say something.

"Power is not something that can be used as you please, and if the policy is not carried out according to the Chancellor's plan, the overall planning of the country will be chaotic, and in that case, more people may lose their lives in the turmoil!"

In this way, it seems that there is some truth in what he said......

…… In this case, isn't it yourself who is easily persuaded!?
