Chapter 229: 15-year-old Inglis, the Dragon God and the Elder King (2)
「……What do you mean?」
Luwin asked Inglis.
「The threat of the Hyrule Menace has indeed passed. However, the residents of the area around Lekrea are still starving and deprived of food due to the lootings Tiffany and her men did. If we let this situation stand, a large number of people may die of starvation. If we leave them be, what difference would it make even if we stopped the Hyrule Menace? In the end, the people will still suffer all the same, won’t they?」
Luwin gasped when he heard such words from Inglis. Perhaps he had been held captive in Lekrea for so long he was not aware of what was happening in the surrounding area.
「T-, true enough, if we are stricken with such a situation…then it’s not something that can be overlooked……When did this happen? Did you see it firsthand?」
「It’s happening right now. We’ve seen a lot of people suffering from lack of food on our way here!」
「That’s true. I came with them. We gotta do something about it fast, or else…」
Lahti confirmed Rafinha’s words.
「Hngh……I see…No, isn’t that all the more reason His Highness Lahti should head to the Royal Capital?! We ask His Majesty the King to direct some food to this area! They can send some from military garrisons on the border! It should be easier to process this proposal with the Prince in the Royal Capital!」
