Every time the merchants went back and forth, Albrecht made more money than he had ever imagined. But I also had a lot of money going out.
Right now, I'm spending as much money on the White March as I can to build the line of defense, but that wasn't all I was doing. I had to make sure it was working properly.
Eventually, I had to show my face often as I went out for a long day with the knights.
It costs a lot to send people to supervise, and even if they tried to introduce an early bureaucracy, it was the order to start a school.
There were too many ignorant people. If it was usable, because it was all tied to the clans, it was able to create a false sense of camaraderie for the clans.
Eventually, a few middle-managers from the North Continent decided to let Carpen vote. Eventually, in Xylex, Carfen became a miraculous entity.
Still not working was the same, but rather, the grazing style might fit in here.
The only policy I had was to badmouth people because they were culturally different, and not match Albrecht's tone.
Albrecht's foundation was to allow as many people as possible to live the same life as before, but to live a protected life.
In a way, like Calteren, this place didn't even know that outsiders formed a dominant class.
However, people accepted Albrecht who had defeated him without much rejection because he had robbed him once before.
I didn't think it would be good for Albrecht and good for them, but over time, I didn't know that there would be any conflict with the North Continents.
I hoped that generations would cope wisely and wisely. Even if there was blood, I just wanted the result to be a good lesson for the next generation.
Albrecht squeezed as much money as he could to set up and support schools and hospitals.
In school, I couldn't teach you anything grand. Reading, writing, speaking, teaching basic arithmetic.
However, most of the students who came to the school were children of the household, although Albrecht did not allow the time limit to be passed on to the lower class.
One trivial accomplishment was that Albrecht said the day was far away, so people were less clingy than when he first came.
Every time people saw Albrecht, they set an example to their ruler, just in the way that they could.
In the climate of the Rhiant coastline, which only existed for two seasons, the long summer was coming to an end.
An envoy has come from the realm of Asayin. It wasn't from Amas, it was from the rebels, maybe from the indigenous peoples.
Albrecht was sent away from the palace living room, and from both sides, Herman, Carpen and several new senior knights were seen. I couldn't find anyone to introduce myself to.
“I am the Guardian of the Holy Land. You've come a long way. What brings you here? ”
Then, the envoy in a turban and fancy silk robe bowed politely to Albrecht.
“I came to preach the words of the great authentic king, Ali Even Hasan, descendant of the Sun and Moon, and prophet Xylex. ”
The envoy emphasized the authenticity. Albrecht nods and says again.
“Tell me.”
“Our great and authentic king wishes for the Guardians of the Holy Land to raise an army to help us. If you defeat that vile Amazon, I promise you half the kingdom. ”
Albrecht chuckles.
‘Looks like we're almost done. ’
Albrecht is confident he can win against Amas again, but he doesn't want to push the recently stabilizing Leight Coast back into battle for no reason.
After leaving everything else, the Kingdom of Assassin, unlike the coastal cities of Leiant, was a place where conquests required blood. It was not a place where people accepted different religions, but a single religion.
Even the powerful modern United States of Earth, once fell in love with the Middle East problem, for Albrecht, the kingdom of Asasin was only a bright opening.
If Albrecht were just a conqueror of blood, he could have been genocidal, but it was neither the path Albrecht had walked nor the path to walk.
I didn't want to use their so-called "legitimate" kings who were falling apart like vermin, and I didn't want to lose Amaz and Chuck.
“Too bad I can't raise an army right now." May God bless your king. Stay back. ”
Albrecht refused without a word of concern, and the envoy who had anticipated his own smuggling operation was baffled.
“Ha, but guardian of the Holy Land! Half the kingdom of Asayin! Fertile Delta is the world's best wheat producing area! I'll give you the whole place! ”
Of course, the envoy tried to change Albrecht's mind with words like that, but he had no intention.
Then he began to mourn and talk, and eventually turned into a force to catch a crotch, and was eventually dragged out by the knight.
When Albrecht saw that, he thought it was the wretched words of those who couldn't defend themselves.
Time passed again, and the sun changed and the new year dawned. Albrecht was still browsing the White March, but when he returned to the palace, he was told that an envoy from Amas was waiting for him.
Unlike the envoy of the so-called 'Authentic’ king who came last time, a man came armed with splendor.
A blue cloth overlaid with turban and a white crescent embroidered on top of the chain armor. He left his sword outside before he came in, so he wasn't wearing it on his waist.
Albrecht left Hermann to introduce himself in case this happens again. It was because I thought it would be majestic for a big, clumsy person.
The knight king, the king of the cross, told me to introduce Albrecht, but he kept his mouth shut and said nothing.
Looking up at Albrecht from his seat, he tries to tell him what he wants to say, but he doesn't seem to remember what to say.
“This is the Guardian of the Holy Land. Albrecht.”
‘Fuck.’
The ambassador waits a long time for Herman's introduction, realizing that was the end before and introducing Amas.
“I have come to preach the words of Amaz Even Atai, descendant of the dragon, master of all horses, the rightful great king of Asayin. ”
Amaz, though an external intruder, seems to have been added to the introduction that it is more legitimate than ever before.
It was legitimate in such fights, so I emphasized that no matter how much I came in from the outside, it was more important.
“Yes, I've come a long way. What did you come to tell me? ”
“Our great king says that his youngest daughter and the guardian of the Holy Land want to make an alliance, an alliance between the two kingdoms, that will last a thousand years, and establish friendship. ”
Albrecht always looks like he's chewing the poop. In his day, when he tried to settle down, there was always talk of marriage.
However, after fixing his face, he said with a smile.
“Haha, this body is not older than it looks. I appreciate the offer, but I'll politely refuse. The envoys will be tired from the long haul, so stay in the palace for now. You can stay as long as you want, so rest well and go back. ”
Many people felt insulted just by rejecting the offer of marriage, and one of them refused, but the hanging was not good.
So, unlike the "original" king's envoy, the envoy said nothing. Even for Albrecht, it was good to send him back.
Since then, a few times, an envoy from Amas offered his marriage, but politely refused each time.
Speaking of marriages, Albrecht is leading his knights out more frequently than ever.
Every time there was a marriage issue, I felt stuck to something and wanted to leave more and more.
However, the minimum defenses had to be built, so I began to care more about the change.
From time to time, he called people to check on the progress of the construction and check on the available troops, such as how many recruits he can employ.
And then time went back, and March, and Albrecht was 20 years old. At the age of South Korea, I was 21 years old.
Albrecht, like always, walks into the gyrex by looking around the White March, where a kid presses on the hood and looks at the forge.
It seems to be a place for iron, fire, hammering, and quenching, so the kid seemed a little dangerous around here. Unlikely, the blacksmith told the boy.
“Kid, it's dangerous. Get away from me. Heave.”
“You're rude! Who are you calling a kid? ”
The blacksmith was rather embarrassed by the boy's sudden shout. Albrecht approaches and says:
“Kid, it's dangerous. Stay away.”
Then the boy turns around with a twinkle in his eye. Albrecht and the boy make eye contact.
But the kid was a little weird looking kid. My eyes were big and cute, but there was something about humans......
“You're rude! Wait, wait, wait, wait! The axe! Give it to me! ”
Then he rushes to Albrecht. The knight hurries to get close enough to get rid of the boy.
“You're rude! Protector of the Holy Land! No matter how young you are, you will never forgive your rudeness! ”
The knight shouted again.
“You're the one who's rude! The boy must be you! ”
Albrecht seemed to be having a hard time. Suddenly, he leaps up and grabs the axe.
Albrecht was surprised. The kid tried to take the axe, but instead of hitting him hard and strong, he was strong even when he hit him as an adult.
I was holding the axe lightly, so I almost missed it. But Albrecht gives you strength, and you don't budge.
The boy said in a panic.
“Hey, you! Why are you so strong? ”
The boy looks like he's hanging on an axe. The knights surprise him and try to detach him.
Meanwhile, the boy looks at the axe and shouts.
“This is it! This is ours! Give it back! We have to take it! Give it back!”
There is a disturbance between the hanging boy and the detachment knights, and the boy's hood peels off. However, my ears were pointy. Albrecht's eyes widen.
The knights are furious, releasing their hands and shouting.
“D-Dwarf! ”
