-Yes, somewhat. -Moriner replied, somewhat embarrassed. -But, at least for me, my interest in the subject is at least half dependent on the person teaching it. Of course, considering everything I just said, it's difficult for me to judge the actions and decisions of our mentor in the past, but I can confidently say that he seems to me to be a person who is truly and genuinely interested in his current field of activity and, perhaps, enjoys his work and life in general. I also have no particular complaints about his teaching methods and mentoring.
Moriner paused for a moment, gathering his thoughts.
-As for the new Empress, I haven't heard much about her. It seemed to me that she is far from unintelligent and quite a talented person, but until now, politics has been outside her area of interest. I think that with a competent staff of advisors, ready to continue the peaceful reforms of the previous Emperor and help Kamia get used to this new role, the country could continue in roughly the same direction...
He thought for a moment whether to add the last thought, and still decided to.
-But, studying the recent global foreign policy situation, as well as a number of accumulated internal problems, I fear that in the coming years we may face certain... difficulties. But I believe that it is better to solve problems in the bud than to postpone them, as happened, for example, during the reign of Olivia Lapis Reima.
The aristocrats and Moriner continued to chat for some time, although Romeo was not particularly active in the conversation today. They had to part when the signal for the end of the competition sounded.
