"Derick, another cup of tea, please." I sighed as I watched the man sitting elegantly drinking tea.

'I wondered why Derek didn't come up, but it's worth it. If you are that person, you will have to respond directly.'

At that time, the man found me and was half-colored.

"Princess Floyen!" Max upstairs was on my mind, but first of all, I greeted him with courtesy, as the other person was my visitor.

"Welcome. You came for urgent business?" A beautiful man with an intelligent appearance laughed warmly at my question.

"It's been a long time. How have you been?" I sighed as I watched him say his greetings.

"Prince Elios." At my call, he smiled refreshingly and opened his mouth.

"I think I told you before to call me Fred?" In response, I slightly crumpled my eyebrows and replied.

"I don't think the only thing that you called me out while I was resting is to get your name checked and ask how am I doing." At my point, he nodded and opened his mouth.

"Ah, no different, I learned that the criminals who committed crimes under our rule some time ago had fled to the town of Aden, the rule of the Floyen family." I was surprised to hear that they were criminals and asked back.

"What crimes did the criminals commit?" Contrary to my surprise, his attitude was relatively calm. To the point of disgust.

"This is a gang of bandits who committed murder and robbery. Most of them have been arrested, but the leaders and executives have fled."

''How many?''

"About ten.'' Aden is a small town with a population of less than 50 as of last year. Furthermore, even if the number of adults who are skilled in combat is regarded as only 15 people. If there was only one criminal, he would be quiet to read his mind, but if it were a full number of people, there might be an attempt to overthrow the village.

'When my father wasn't here, the matter of this sort...'

He urged me to answer when I was sinking.

"We have organized a punitive force in our family, but we are unable to enter because of the nonaggression pact. So we need the help of the House of Floyen." I clenched my fist.

'Is it okay to decide my own way?'

Even with that hesitation for a moment, I recalled what Marilyn had told me one day.

I glanced at Derek. He was staring at me without answering whether he was waiting for my decision. I felt the weight.

'Yes, what I enjoy is thanks to the people who believe and follow our family.'

All rights come from obligations. For that reason, I decided to use the best judgment I could ever have in this situation to fulfill my obligations.

"Okay, I allow the subjugation." I said quickly, as he was about to laugh and open his mouth to my answer... "But the premise is that it will ensure the safety of our people. He hardened his face at my words. It's worth it. His original intention was to get my permission to be excused from attacking not only the bandits but also the villagers of our territory who might cooperate with the enemy.

"I'll make it up to you if it's a loss."

"No. I said it was the safety of our people. It's not about money." At my steadfast answer, he frowned.

"I don't understand. It's just a matter of clinging to the safety of small town residents who don't help with finances." I replied calmly, suppressing my anger at the voice of his voice that seemed to be annoying.
