Chapter 75: Directory Government - King of Brothers (1)
I left the capital and headed south, rejoining Hassan and the delegation heading to Iberia.
Hassan, of course, said it was fine, citing King Kroxx's will. However, he was quite pleased when I provided a large amount of food through the Aquitaine Company as an apology and a gift.
Anyway, as it's a diplomatic relationship, it's not good to be too indebted.
As before, our procession took a brief rest in Toulouse, the former territory of Lafayette, passed through the southern gate, and entered the Iberian Peninsula.
As soon as we passed through the mountains, we were faced with intensely hot and dry air under the scorching sun.
“……It's hot.”
“It's summer.”
Hassan replied as if he was very used to it, but for me, unaccustomed to this climate, it was suffocating.
If I had known this would happen, I should have gotten myself one of those artifacts that I gifted to Eris.
