"Y-Yeah, I'm good… A-Anyway, we should start the meeting, and since nobody wants to go, I'll just bring up something," I muttered, taking out a tablet from my inventory and logging in. Soon, I opened up my notes application and read out what I typed down. "I recently obtained the assistance of the Japanese Emperor. We had a bit of a strained relationship prior, but we put our differences and conflict aside to get rid of this common enemy with a deal."
"And what might that deal be?" Ethel asked, slightly raising her eyebrow as such a favorable exchange would have cost quite a lot. And she didn't seem like the only one who was wondering this, so I decided to say it, despite the looks I might get.
"It's a political marriage between my daughter and his son. Of course, it's just for show and a kind of insurance, so if I dare to break the deal, then he has my daughter in his grasp. Of course, I have no intention of doing such a thing."
