For the decisive battle

The kingdom of Granfram, which had destroyed the kingdom of Winheel and absorbed its power almost as it was, began to take over the capital. Don't know that this is exactly what the Great Alexandros Empire wants.

Even if they did, the decision of the kingdom of Granfram would not have changed. There are few options. As long as the center is held down, the northern defense line of the Grand Flam Kingdom must be long. It is a range that can not be covered by the existing force, and even if it is forcibly arranged, it will only be in shape and will have no meaning.

The Great Alexandros Empire, on the other hand, has the freedom to attack from the center, choosing a weak spot in the defense of the Grand Flam kingdom.

This is an overwhelming disadvantage for the Grand Flam Kingdom and cannot be defended.

Drop the royal capital immediately. This decision was inevitable, even without the Great Alexandros Empire working.

"Is there no reply from the Kingdom of Fatiras?"

The Grand Fulham Kingdom does not think that attacking the royal capital is just a matter of collecting troops. The royal capital is also the capital of the Great Alexandros Empire. It's obvious without examining that the defense is stronger than we know.

You have to do everything you can. Cooperation with the Kingdom of Fatiras is one of them, but this is not going well.

"The response is coming. However, the opponent is asking for the sweep of Alexandros' army in the Kingdom of Fatiras before attacking the royal capital."

In response to King Granfram's inquiry, Prime Minister Seid explained the current situation.

"It's a good story about insects."

"Yes, and it's not the Alexandros army that we're trying to get rid of, but our own people."

"... what is it?"

The words of Prime Minister Sade alone do not tell King Granfram what it is. I knew it was just a dubious situation, and I had a bad feeling in the king's chest.

"In a nutshell, it's a revolt by the people, but behind the scenes Alexandros seems to be pulling a string and quite massive."

"Do you say Alexander is instigating the people?"

"Yes"

"How was it?-Did Fatilas go so badly?"

The people of the Kingdom of Fatiras are originally the House of Fathiras or its dependent noble lords. I can't say loyalty is hot, but if I didn't have enough time, I wouldn't think I would end up with an unrelated Lancelot.

"I haven't heard of that. Let's defeat the privileged class and regain freedom and equality. This is what the rebels have to say."

"I know the privilege class, but freedom and equality? What exactly is it looking for?"

The words freedom and equality alone do not tell the world. In this world where there is only a monarchy and aristocracy, inconvenience and inequality are taken for granted, and few people question it.

"Equality means that a person's abilities can be correctly evaluated, regardless of birth or origin, and that they can be treated accordingly."

"... Hmm. It's ideal, but in reality it's difficult."

Emphasis on birth and origin is not just discrimination, but also about education. If you are born in a knight's house, you will be educated as a knight from an early age. Aristocratic families also learn the knowledge necessary to take over territorial and national affairs from an early age.

No matter how smart you are, there is no chance for a child of a peasant to get enough education to work as a civilian. If you don't learn it, you won't be able to learn anything and show your abilities.

"Freedom seems to be various, such as freedom of choice of occupation and freedom of marriage."

"... It's impossible, is it a different world system?"

"Definitely. It's not something that governments and civilians in this world can come up with. If they do, they will judge that they can't do the same thing as we do."

It cannot be realized by bringing in only the concept. The aristocratic daughter should never marry a peasant house, and vice versa. It requires an equal education system for all people, at a minimum, and it requires enormous costs to achieve.

"Why did the people get on such a ridicule?"

"Because it's a people, I don't know it's impossible to do it. If you swear an ideal, you'll ride it."

"That's why we go to the lord and the country."

Things are dead. The king does not know the sentiment of the people who step into the rebellion.

"It's also great that the instigator is excellent. This time, after examining various things, I finally found out that Alexandros seemed to be quite aware of the popular reputation."

"Reputation of the people ..."

The King remembered that the worst of the Grand Flam Kingdom was. The decline of the Grand Flam Kingdom seems to have begun when the people's feelings left the royal family.

And that's what happened ... King Granfram remembered it after a long time.

"The reason why Winheel hit the royal city is probably because of the reputation of the people."

"What is it?"

"In Alexandros's territory, this is what happened. The Royal Grande Fram, who took the House of Winheels into revolt, has no power to rule the country. It is the mission of the hero who has been called into this world from another world and the true king's mission that will be ended earlier. ''

"... It's a terrible statement."

The beginning of the war was the rebellion of Lancelot. They brilliantly set aside and justify their actions.

"People don't know the truth. They may have received the rumors as truth. Even if they were intended rumors, they could not judge them."

"Yes, but this is the way to go."

Information manipulation, information dissemination. The Grand Flam Kingdom has suffered many times.

"I haven't heard of the Axmia family being so powerful in this way. It's not just an imitation."

"... Is the organization taken away, but how?"

The unrivaled power that Rion had. This is what the Grand Flam Kingdom has been asking for.

"I'm sorry, but I'm sorry that I should have thought simply."

"Does that mean you know where Rion's power is?"

"I'm thinking now that it was like favela."

If there are collaborators in Lion, residents of the favelas are likely to be there. Rion has no connection other than the Winheels House and the Favela. The Kingdom of Granfram, however, did not consider the favela to be the organization itself.

"Why are those who can do their best to live so much power?"

This is the main reason. With such power, the favela cannot be a favela. The upper impressions of the Grand Flam Kingdom could not be dispelled by the impression of the old favela.

It was unfortunate that the core of Rion's organization had already dived deeper into sparsely populated areas, or even out, when the Kingdom of Granfram was entered into the investigation.

"We created the slums as an intelligence organization and grew it up. Wouldn't he do it?"

"But in the favela ..."

"This is just an imagination, and knowing the facts is probably too late."

"... I see."

The power that the Grand Frams sought was in the hands of the Great Alexandros Empire. If so, it is more likely to be different from the old organization. There is no point in discussing it now.

"And the matter of Fatilas isn't just instigated by ideals, but it also uses real profits as bait."

Prime Minister Sade returned to the main story.

"Actual?"

"It seems that he promises the status of the first-class citizen of Alexandros to those who give credit."

"What is a prime citizen?"

"Alexandros classifies the people. The first-class citizens, primarily the Kanzanian territories controlled by Lancelot, are close to the minority in treatment. Below that are the second-class citizens and former Axmias. Hou and his dependent aristocratic people, this is a common nation and

"Do you still have one?"

There is even lower than the general public. This surprised King Granfram.

"Yes. Third nation, this is as close as a slave and is overworked as a labor force."

Although Prime Minister Sade is close to a slave, it is actually a slave. In order to lose the word slave, it is simply called a third nation.

"What is freedom and equality. What you are doing is the exact opposite."

"That's right. We are screaming to overthrow the privileged class and creating an exploitation class that is the exact opposite of the privileged class. It is clear that this is just a matter of instigating the people."

"Conversely, can't the third nation be revolted?"

"I think it's difficult now. Incitement also requires time to infiltrate them, and I can't show what's worth the bet on life."

"... Yes, what happens after all?"

The story is pretty detour. King Granfram wanted to sort things out a bit.

"The recruitment of reinforcements to the kingdom of Fatiras needs to look a little further. The enemy is the people. If you defeat it poorly, strange rumors will be raised in the country and the revolt may spread."

Prime Minister Sade replied at once to the king's question. Prime Minister Sade himself feels he has spent a lot of extra time. There is still much to talk about.

"I see. Continue to check the situation."

"I've acknowledged"

"By the way, Fatilas cannot cooperate in the recapture operation of the capital city."

"Yes. The recapture of the royal capital will be done only in Japan."

"... Ox and Hashiu?"

It is not an exaggeration to say that the success or failure of the recapture of the capital will determine the fate of the Grand Flam Kingdom. King Granfram was again looking forward to seeing the Ox and Hashiu forces in the battle with Winheels.

"Both sides have declined this request for reinforcements."

"What is it? What is it?"

Cooperating in the event of a fall, we are turning back now that we are regaining momentum. The kings cannot understand the ideas of both countries.

"The reason I've been told was satisfactory."

"What is the reason?"

In the words of Prime Minister T. Said, the king is apparently a bit reassured, knowing that the two countries do not seem to have turned away.

"The movement of the army of the United Kingdom, which has long been unknown, has been revealed."

"Are you in the Kingdom of Merica? Did you really attack the Kingdom of Ox?"

In addition, the expression of the king is reinforced. Here, if it becomes a situation to confront the Kingdom of Merica, it will not be a place to regain the royal capital.

"No, the Merika kingdom has attacked the Eastern Union."

"... More east of Ox and Hashiu?"

The two countries and the countries across the United Kingdom. Even though he knew the name of the Eastern Union, the reality was not much in the king's head. He would not have been interested in gathering small nations. It is the arrogance of a great power.

"Yes. I suppose we had to settle the east before fighting our country. This is exactly what we thought of."

"But it's not that we've attacked the Ox and Hashiu kingdoms.

King Granfram had no idea that the United Kingdom would lose to the Eastern Union.

"No, there is no room for the kingdom of Merica. The invasion of the Eastern Union has failed, and it appears that the United Kingdom has been pushed. The kingdoms of Ox and Merica do not know how the Eastern Union will emerge. He says he can't move the army. "

"I don't know much about the Eastern Coalition, but it shouldn't be a coalition that has the power to resist the Kingdom of Merica."

"It seems ... the mercenaries hired by the Eastern Union are surprisingly strong."

"Yoheidan?"

King Granfram does not know the existence of a mercenary corps. Not only King Grand Fulham, but only Minister Seid knows at this time. This is the first time that Prime Minister Saed knew about this.

"The soldiers hired for money, the army."

"Are such people in the east?"

"It seems that those who were originally confident in their arms and the knights who lost their jobs started out as subsidizing monsters with money. It seems that it has expanded to a size that can be called a corps. ''

"I see. Is that a war?"

"The more you defeat the monsters, the less work you'll do.

"But just because it's helping you can beat the Kingdom of Merika ..."

"It's incredible, but it seems to be the case. Of course, the fact that the kingdom of Merica is being pushed is not only because of its mercenaries, but also because of its struggle in the Eastern Union, It seems that he has participated in the fight against the Kingdom of Merica. ''

Even before the war in the south, it was not known that it was a plan for the mercenaries.

"... to the south?"

The war has spread throughout the continent, not just the Grand Flam Kingdom. King Granfram knew that time was truly wild. It's a bitter feeling for the king.

"I'm grateful that the Kingdom of Merica couldn't afford any intervention, but the east of the Kingdoms of Ochs and Hashiu are bordered by the Eastern Union, and if it were to be seized, for Japan, It can be a new threat. ''

"... What do you do?"

"I can't help it. For the time being, let both countries retake the royal capital as soon as possible. Is this what Japan should do?"

"Yes."

Even if we get the information, there is no power in the current kingdom of Granfram. The choice does not change anything.

As a result, the Grand Flam Kingdom will begin to retake the capital.

◇◇◇

Opposite of Bandou. At the western end of the former territory of the Grand Flam, now the Great Alexandros, is Kanzawa, where Lancelot ruled. Already all of its political functions have been relocated to Kiyot and Tokio, and although Kanzawa is still treated as a frontier, the steel industry, which was the source of the power of the Great Brittany Empire, is still active.

You know it the moment you enter Kanzawa.

"... terrible"

Seeing the scene in front of him, Leon muttered.

The once-rich greens of the mountains in the distance are deserted and uncovered, exposing the reddish-brown mountains. The result of excessive logging.

Black smoke rising from all over the territory. It's smoke from a steel mill or charcoal mill, but just looking at it makes me feel stuffy.

"Go ahead"

Alice tells her that she is with her, but she does not respond. He just stares at the surrounding scenery with a staring eye.

Nevertheless, when Leon started first, Alice followed.

Go down to the foot of the border. The situation is getting worse. It's really dusty, and if you don't raise the fabric around your neck to your lips, you'll feel resistance to breathing.

"... I don't see pollution in this world."

Looking down at the creek flowing by the side of the road, Rion mutters. The flowing water is stagnant, and something like oil is floating on the surface.

Leon doesn't know if there is any real harm, but he has never seen such a sight in this world.

Spirits are the source of power in this world. And rich nature is the power of the spirits. The sight right in front of him seems to be out of the world.

"... I made an excuse to ask for a request, and did you come to Grand Flam to show this?"

Alice, who has been silent all the time, finally speaks.

"Oh, I heard that something was going wrong. I wonder if it's important to you in the former world."

"And hope I've seen this and allow me to return to Gran Flam?"

Alice's gaze gazes at Rion. Rion responded with a bitter smile, and opened her mouth again.

"... well, I don't say I didn't have that feeling at all, but I didn't even think so much."

"Is that bad genie influential?"

The four elements of iron, poison, darkness, and gold were the principles of the genie. Certainly there is no part that matches.

"No, it's the influence of a different world. Civilization, science, and names are various, but they've always destroyed nature. There is science that protects nature, but how about? If I'm gone, nature is rich. I thought I would return to the state. "

"... is that Ryo's idea?"

"That's about another world, so it is."

"What? It sounds like the opposite, but after all, both Frey and Ryo hate humans, right?"

"... maybe."

Perhaps I have two sides of reason and instinct, not Ryo and Frey. This thought suddenly came to Lion's mind.

"Well, can you manage this?"

"... I know people in this world already. I can't forget it."

"Yes ..."

"But we can erase the culprit, and if all goes well, we can prevent it from spreading even temporarily."

What is the culprit is Maria, the one who brought in the knowledge of another world. Killing Mary is one of Leon's goals of revenge, the most important of which.

"... I see. It's not for your purpose."

"Even so, did it fit your purpose?"

"... I'm sorry, but what?

Even if it is no longer the world, we cannot forgive the improper imitation of this world. Alice, which is based on four elements, is also nature itself.

"Return to the east"

"eh?"

"I will never fail again, for that I need a little detour."

"... I understand, let's go back."

Lion and Alice return to the Eastern Coalition to fight against the Kingdom of Merica. Also returns to Grand Flam. For the day.
