Since they insist, they must have a reason.
After much contemplation, Roland decided to be straightforward. He summoned the foreign ministers of the two countries and demanded they provide a legitimate reason, not to waste time.
"We're all civilized people here, no need for any childish tantrums. Take on as much as you can handle. If an agreement can't be reached in three days, I'll return home immediately and have Her Majesty Sofia negotiate with you."
Roland's ultimatum was full of threat.
Will Sofia negotiate?
She won't.
Her negotiation tactic is to put a sword to the opponent's neck and ask them whether they agree.
But her success rate is the highest because negotiations at sword-point are always the most efficient.
Roland's message was simple; he's tired of this. If the Prudon Kingdom and Tirol Kingdom can't come up with a reasonable explanation, prepare for a beating.
His ultimatum was quickly met with a response.
