There are problems that need to be taken care of.

 

Dealing with the cat people, winged people, and humans.

Since we’ve reached the point of hostilities, the policy itself has been decided.

We need to decide on specific measures.

 

We’ve called in representatives from each race as well as the military to discuss this matter.

I opened my mouth in a light-hearted tone to those who were nervous about talking about the battle.

 

“The number of representatives has increased. It’s about time we think of a way to mark them as representatives.”

 

Everyone’s eyes darted to the side as I suddenly said something unrelated.

Kiara didn’t seem to grasp my intentions.

 

“Big brother. Why did you bring it up here?”

 

“It’s because there are different races here.”

 

I only said that to lighten the mood before we get into the heavy stuff.

Charles laughed mischievously.

 

“That’s true. So let’s start with that as a warm-up before we get down to the main business.”

 

The conversation was surprisingly lively …… with a lot of nonsense.

 

In such a situation, women’s sense prevailed.

With Kiara’s suggestion, the general framework was set.

 

“Isn’t a colored shawl for the shoulders fine? We can sew some kind of pattern on it.”

 

The problem was the color.

This color was confusing.

Each race had a different concept of what constituted a noble color.

This is troubling.

 

In that case, it’s up to me.

Of course.

 

In ancient China, yellow was the color of the emperor.

Yellow is common in the hair of the tiger people, so it’s no good.

 

In ancient Rome, it was purple.

I don’t know if there was a purple dye, though.

I think it was reddish-purple …… actually.

Fortunately, the territory is by the sea.

 

“Were there any snails living around here? I think it’s supposed to have reddish-purple dye.”

 

Charles nodded his head.

 

“Is there such a color?”

 

The teacher added.

 

“There was in the old literature, but the apostles didn’t like purple, so it died out.”

 

Oh, that’s dangerous …… I was careless.

 

I have to be careful.

It seems that I let my guard down because I’m surrounded by my comrades.

 

“If possible, let’s use that color. Please take care of it, teacher.”

 

“Oh dear, it’s never good when the kiddo says something. All right, I’ll look into it.”

 

The warming-up was done.

I returned to my serious face.

 

“Now that we’ve come to some conclusions, let’s get down to business.”

 

Charles put his hand on his chin.

 

“Let’s deal with the attackers. Please decide on a general policy.”

 

“The cat tribe will be considered a surprise attack during the negotiations and will be beaten thoroughly. For the other tribes, let’s treat this as a defense for self-defense and negotiate accordingly.”

 

When Touko heard the word “self-defense,” he growled.

 

“Self-defense against an attacker?”

 

As expected of a muscle brain.

If you’re hit, you’re immediately considered an enemy.

Abraham, who was always modest about everything, tilted his head slightly.

 

“We’re new here, so we’d like to know your criteria.”

 

 

That’s right.

I’ll tell them the criteria.

There should be no objections.

 

“I don’t think it’s wrong for us to feel the danger and take the fight to them. In fact, I think it’s worse to do nothing and only increase the damage. However, I will not tolerate trickery.”

 

Abraham was still tilting his head.

 

“I understand what you mean. Can I ask you something more in-depth?”

 

Let’s see.

It’s much better to ask clearly than to be convinced …… that I’m telling the truth.

 

“First, if they are not friend or foe, then we can prepare for an attack. It would be foolish to accuse someone of being sneaky just because they caught you off guard. At that time, it is the one who is taken by surprise who should be ashamed. We can also take the initiative. It’s just a matter of which one of us makes the first move.”

 

Charles chuckled and nodded.

 

“You’re right. It would be foolish to do nothing until we are attacked and then make more sacrifices.”

 

“However, if we are negotiating, we will not attack. It is possible for the opponent to attack us unilaterally.”

 

Abraham was still tilting his head.

I guess I’m pretty logical.

 

“Even in that case …… it would be unwise not to be vigilant because we’re still negotiating.”

 

Of course, I would have to explain that case as well.

 

“If you are too cautious, people will suspect your intention to negotiate. Therefore, caution should be kept to a minimum. In negotiations, you have to show that you trust the other side in order to proceed in the first place.”

 

Abraham seemed to agree to some extent.

His head straightened.

 

“That’s true. You’re absolutely right.”

""

 

“We should try to surprise them by pretending to negotiate. No one will complain when you accuse them of this and crush them.”

 

Abraham shook his head.

 

“Hmm …… certainly.”

 

“If we were to take such a despicable step. Would you have wanted to join us?”

 

Abraham nodded as if he was truly convinced.

 

“So, your purpose, Milord, is to unite the races of this region.”

 

I don’t want to do it by force.

But if I could, I would.

I gave Abraham a nod of agreement.

 

“If possible, that would be best. However, if you are unprincipled and tolerant, you may not feel comfortable taking sides. Therefore, we should make sure that despicable acts are rewarded accordingly. If we allow them to do so unprincipledly, we are putting the people who are actually fighting them in unnecessary danger.”

 

This part of the story would be natural to them.

They all nodded.
