Bandit, Be Ambitious! To Accomplish Kingdom Revival!

Our days of hospitality in the royal palace of the kingdom of Krabble have lasted for a few days, and we have left the king's capital.

To make our way to our villa, which was renovated with a noble hall near the harbor.

With Mr. O'Bright and Mayley in the carriage that Mr. Ablett prepared, we will continue south on the streets.

I stayed overnight in a town on the way and took the streets extending south from the stone bridge between me and the Kingdom of Sylvania, it was nearly dusk and suddenly smelled the tide.

As the streets plunge onto the slopes that descend to the south, a great sea plain is seen ahead.

Sadie and Mu are watching the ocean from the carriage window with their eyes and mouths open. He seems surprised by the size of the ocean he sees for the first time.

"Big!

"That little looking thing is a trading ship?

To Sadie's question, I look out the window at the ocean.

The sail is white and swollen, probably a trading ship. Two masts, but they don't seem to use a triangle sail.

That one, I don't think I can make it on the wind......

"It's about 100D (30M) long. It has a width of 25D (7.5m). We sail for over a month to make a deal."

I heard Mr. O'Brie explaining to Sadie and the others.

Is it my fault that it feels surprisingly small?

For once, I feel like I could use a ride. I'm just curious to see how you can manoeuvre a shipwreck.

The large harbour is surrounded by splendid stone walls, probably because it is the lifeline of the Kingdom of Krabble. I also feel like the size is bigger than the king's capital.

There was a fine gate in the stone walls that held back my hand going as if I were the Great Wall.

Even if we dive through the gates, the streets continue, but at the crossroads in front of us entering the streets of the harbor, we are set to go east. The road continues towards a sleek hill, lined with mansions on the south side.

Guess it'll be tricky in the villa district. We go into a house a little further from our surroundings in the back.

The gate surrounded by an iron fence was open, but does anyone live there?

A small flower bed is built on the rotary at the front door.

Mu is looking round his eyes, but I think I'll make it for our fort, too. It's a cute flowerbed I can't help but think about that.

When the carriage carrying us stopped at the front door, several men and women appeared from inside the building and lined up on one side of the front door.

"This is the villa that His Majesty the King gave His Majesty the Queen. All maintenance will be carried out by the Kingdom of Krabble. Take your time."

Mr O'Brie says so and gets off the carriage first.

Mu and Marian will follow later, and when I get down before Sadie, I'll give Sadie a hand to help me get down.

During the evening, Marian planted the carriage.

Being the Queen of Sylvania and her husband also seems to have to know some courtesy.

Together, Sadie will be down first, and I'll be down last.

"I'm Reynolds, the butler who protects the hall. We live in a hall with a samurai-headed Merricle."

"Good job. Nice to meet you."

The man who bowed his head respectfully to Sadie doesn't feel like he's past the age of grandeur. There is also a mixture of white things in my head. Still a long man with a good posture. Is a woman a man's wife? It seems the same age. She's a small woman who feels a little light-hearted.

Mr. Reynolds led me through to the living room, where I was supposed to have tea for now.

The harbor looks good through the south window.

I see, as a villa, it's first class.

We spent some time relaxing and watching the harbor until Mr. Zairas and the others arrived late.

By nightfall, Mr. Zairas and the others had arrived. I thought it would be difficult to stay because there were 20 escorts alone, and they even set up dormitories for accompanying people.

Mr. Reynolds told me that we and Mr. and Mrs. Zairas were going to be staying in the hall by carriage.

"How was Jill's home?

"I was comfortable inside. My lord was a little older than me, but he enjoyed drinking with his predecessors in hiding."

"My father, too, when he heard about the bandits, was shining his eyes. It's been a while since I've seen a father like that."

He must be the one who says the blood of the samurai is noisy.

But that's what we fought so crazy at the time.

"He wanted to see the banter. In the meantime, I think I might come visit. By the way, how long have you been in this land?

"I'm thinking about getting into trouble for ten days. I wanted to take a closer look at the trading ship..."

He's looking at me like that.

I know you're bored with Mr. Zairas, but there's something I'd like you to do.

"We'll pull up in three days. If it's not Wang Du, we won't need it either. Guards are enough for the Mage Squad. Besides, there's nothing wrong with Crabble's security."

"If you can, I'd like you to look at the border between Krabble and Nielezm before you return to the capital of Sylvania."

There is not an immediate dispute, but we have to make sure Crabble's crisis management is checked.

If you're a long-time ally, you have to be prepared for a lot of bleeding.

"Ok... You wouldn't expect it to start right away, would you?

"It's two years from now. We have plenty of time."

Mr. Zairas nodded silently, but Mr. Jill is still looking at me.

"Lord Banter says it's not enough in the current system?

"I don't know that, so I'm going to ask Mr. Zairas to look at it. I'd like to see it before I leave too, but I don't think what I see is the same between me and Mr. Zairas..."

I'd rather go alone than go with you, I can hang a filter that says it's my experience.

Mr. Zairas is a knight, so he will see horseback riding as his main focus.

I'm going to come and look at the fence and surveillance station, which is going to be a defense.

Dinner is in the company, so I could eat without worrying about manners, and the fish dishes I haven't had in years because of their proximity to the harbor are a thankful story.

Although it is a place I would like to visit several times a year, I can also feel free to ask the Kingdom of Krabble to pay all the maintenance costs. I'd like to coordinate with Mr. Ablett around here.

When Mr. Zairas returned to the king's capital in Sylvania, he decided to start having fun with me.

Place the tripod near the living room window and attach the telescope.

Because it has a slightly higher magnification, holding it by hand causes my vision to move.

Take note of what you noticed as you looked out the window, through the telescope, at the harbor and the trading ship.

"Was there something interesting?

Looking back to the voice from behind, Mr. O'Brie was standing.

Taking his eyes off the telescope, he looks back to Mr. O'Brie and Mu is trying to peek into the telescope.

I can't fit her tall enough, so I shrink her tripod and she says, "Thanks! ♪ And I'm happy. ♪

It won't be stable with your hands. We should probably have a tripod at the station.

Head to the table with Mr. O'Brie. At the table, Mr. Marian is knitting yarn. Because it's a small item. Is it for the baby at Mr. Torrell's?

"I could see some interesting stuff inside. By the way, what about the meeting with the captain you requested?

"I'll be here in the afternoon. My father will bring the queen, so I intend to accompany my father and escort Her Majesty and the queen through the harbour. The captain says Lord Abrito will bring you here."

Must be a boring story for Sadie and the others. Looks like we can relax and talk about the ship.

I never thought a trading ship in this world would have a galley ship on both sides.

That would be the rudder on the other side. I don't even feel like I'm getting any speed.

It was near noon that the Empress came to visit.

Apparently, he's getting lunch at a restaurant in the harbor, and he's taken everyone, including Mu.

As I take a leisurely peek at the telescope by myself, Mr. Reynolds tells the visitor. As I stepped away from the window and headed to the table, Mr. Abrito came into the living room with the old man.

"How about that?

"You live well inside and you don't want to go home. Besides, thank you for bringing the captain. Please, have a seat."

When we sat down, the samurai brought us a cup of wine.

Light the pipe with charcoal in a small incense furnace-like container with a spark for the pipe placed in front of me and my visitors.

"This is Captain Grafnen of Karuan, who came back from the deal. … that is the companion of Her Majesty the Queen of Sylvania, Lord Banter."

Reach over the table and shake hands with each other.

"We know that even with the demise of the Kingdom of Cardina, a new kingdom was created immediately. When my grandchildren lived well, I recently received news."

"That's above all. Your Majesty, we all work to make life better."

Captain Grafnen has been in the ocean for years, his face is red and black, his head is completely white, but his eyes like those of a raptor look at me.

"When it comes to the kingdom of Sylvania, it's the kingdom of the mountain hem. I don't know why I read it……………"

"Our prints will have silver mountains, but silver will not always be picked. While the kingdom is rich, we want to look for the next source of income."

"So it's a trading ship? Wahahahaha...... It sounds like a young man's answer, but there are not enough kingdoms overseas to increase the current deal. The number of trading ships is coordinated between the Chamber of Commerce of Crabble and the King."

"I know that, too. So I'm thinking about looking for a new kingdom and doing business with that kingdom. Crabble, Torresti, both kings have agreed, and we seem to be collecting quite a bit of money for that."

When he listens to me, he opens his eyes in amazement and stares at Mr. Ablett next door.

"Lord Banter is right. Securing new trading routes is completely unknown. I don't even think the Chamber of Commerce is going to fund it. The three kingdoms are going to fund it and open up new routes……"

"I see. Then it would also make sense for me to come here. What do you want to hear?

Give me a serious look.

Was Captain Grafnen also thinking about opening up a new trading route?
