Border Guardian Hal Akircius

Chapter 7: Post-War Urban Renewal (Part 1)

Two days after the Battle of Cilentium Cage Castle, the Cilentium North Castle Gate

As an ambassador of surrender, the former palace Zabergan was relative to the border guardian.

This neighborhood guardian, from a group of islands who looked much younger than himself, defeated the Alford Hero King, even though he was old, and left the Brave Warriors of Fried.

There is a tightly tied cloth on the shoulder and a scratch on the cheek by Alford, but even from its flat appearance, it does not appear to have the audacity to take a single ride.

"... so the king's body will be handed over with surrender, right?

Negotiations over Alford's body are likely to end more easily than Bergan was prepared to.

All Hal demanded was the surrender of the Fried Kings of Alford, mainly in Bergan.

That wasn't a special condition because it was what Bergan thought it was from the beginning.

However, Bergan was concerned about the trend of the other Warrior Chiefs, but the crown that Hal wore during his outing had more effect than expected.

The Warrior Chiefs supported Bergan's opinion that Hal, who descended Alford after a single hit, saw him wear the crown he inherited from Alford and recognized Hal as Alford's successor, surrendering as Alford promised.

"Yes, and I'll have Mr. Bergan do the palace.

"Do you think I'll continue with the palace?

"Yes, let me change my name in particular... but I'm basically in Cilentium, so I'm blind to the north Fried. So I'd like to ask Mr. Bergan to take over the Fried tribe.

"Is this a roundup... the only place I've ever been to Fredia Castle has had little effect... and I have one favor for you, Lord Border Guardian.

"What is it?

"I would like you to join us in serving the remains of King Alford and marching to Fredia Castle. If King Alford's successor shows himself, the people will soon obey him.

It is a sudden offer.

Leaving room for the noodled Hull, Bergan inherited the word.

"The Border Guardian was given the throne and crown by King Alford, and I want you to show him to Fredia Castle and the people. Naturally, our warriors know the Lord Border Guardian who won the throne with strength. I obey you, but the people do not.

"... but..."

"Let's not have a problem, I'll go, but it's good.

To Hal hesitating, Altrius said, suddenly appearing.

It was Bergan, who strives to pretend to be calm while marveling at the figure of Altrius, but his voice trembles unexpectedly.

"What about you?

"He is my predecessor, Commander Altrius, who once also crossed swords with King Alford.

"Nah... my God, the Imperial Ghost General!

Bergan is even more surprised by Hal's introduction.

And Altrius answers Bergan in an armband.

'Um, I'm now involved in running the city as an adviser to this neighborhood guardian. Oh, my God!'

"Ha ha... here's the thing..."

Hal asked Altrius, sparing Bergan, who still couldn't take it off the surprise.

"Predecessor, are you all right?

"Ooh, Cilentium will have no problem except cleaning up after. Now you can't waste the throne Alford gave you at the corner. Besides, I'm not comfortable with the North being upset until hours. Most of all, I'm worried about Fradia, who's gone Alford.

Danford had led more than 3,000 warriors and lost to Fradia Castle, but we know that he was about to change course from Fradia to further north as he was attacked one after another by the people of the land he had plundered along the way.

That information has actually come from the people who attacked Danford's army and is highly credible.

Since Danford and his mother are from the Flink tribe, a leading tribe in the north of Fried, they are probably going to rely on their mother's transmission to postpone them.

If you return the back, the castle of Fradia is now defenseless, which is troublesome when the surrounding tribes and even more northern Halemians begin to move.

It would be nice to just be occupied, but that's what barbarian Cliffonams and Halemians do.

There is no doubt that violence and looting will accompany it, and the castle and castle towns centered on the Cliffonams for forty years may perish.

"... may I go, too?

El Laicia appears after Hull.

"I want to host my father's funeral with my aunt.

That's what Ellesia replied to Hull's gaze when he asked.

"... okay, then I'll leave in three days.

When Hal replied after a while of thought, Bergan replied, uncommonly representing a delightful color.

"Oh, then tell the Warrior Chiefs about it and get them ready to leave!

During the same period, the Embassy of the East Photographic Empire Cilentium

"... it will take a hero king to tear, and a new wind will begin to blow in the land of the north. and."

The city ambassador, Daicheng Sukei, finished his letter in order to inform the western province on the salt bank of the backdrop of this battle.

Put the brush down and Daesuke looks out the embassy window to the city of Cilentium.

There were more citizens who seemed busy cleaning up the battlefield and restoring the city than they could float in the victory.

The weir had also been restored again, and the water from the wetlands was beginning to pull gradually, but the farm on the east side, which had been maintained at the corner, had been messed up.

However, the peasants who already possessed the rice balls and rice balls are already working to restore the farm, and there is no darkness in its face.

It also appears that Hal decided to build a cemetery in the foothills of the southern part of the city to bury the bodies of the warriors and soldiers killed in the war, without distinction of the enemy allies, and that the bodies delivered to the coffin were to be collected in the Temple of the Sun and sent a funeral poem to El Laesia.

From time to time you can see the soul rising to heaven from the roof of the temple of the Sun nothing more than the sight of the soul rising to heaven sent to the funeral poem.

"Now the immediate threat is gone... but you can't think of a throne inheritance to an interracial people in the East. If Prince Danford and the rest of the party don't seem like a big deal, does that mean that nothing will inhibit the development of Cilentium for the time being?

Sukedaicheng snapped so to himself, confirming that the ink in the letter had dried, carefully folded it into a seal, and sealed it with a seal.

"... so shall we just prepare a little celebration?

While looking out the window at the Cilentium Administration Building, Sukedaichi, who had the letter in his hand, smiled and said.

Six days later, the Northern Border Post.

When the backdrop of the battle of Cilentium was brought to the northern border post in the early horses, Adamantius immediately caught sight of the messenger.

The Imperial soldier, who kept coming on a ride, was exhausted, but drinks water, breathes and reports to Adamantius at once.

"The City of Cilentium, led by the Achilcius Border Guardian, has defeated Prince Danford's Fried Army on the outskirts of Cilentium by taking over enemy hero Alford himself!

"You broke it before we rushed to backup...!

Adamantius complains of the report.

Besides, he said he took that hero king by one stroke.

"... so that we can use it immediately to the Imperial City! I don't mind being an oral messenger.

Adamantius commands his soldiers and rushes to make them run fast to the Empire.

Occasionally a place to boil down to victory.

It was Adamantius, who did not gather as many soldiers as he thought he would, but it was such a shock that it seemed to be the end of something such as our failure to make it.

The greatest and most powerful enemy in the northern part of the Empire disappeared in the battle against Cilentium.

The name of Hal Akircius, its helpful actor, is undoubtedly going to blow in neighboring countries, not just empires.

It was a great victory, as if to blow the mood that had been depressing until then.

In Adamantius' eyes as he returns to the office in an upbeat mood, he sees two women who interact with the Imperial Soldier.

The precinct was closed when information came in that King Alford would attack Cilentium, and the imperial merchants, the Orans, and the Cliffonam people did not come and go in any way.

In an instruction from an Imperial Army superior not to upset people in vain, we have not touched that King Alford has moved his army, but we have thoroughly notified him of the closure of the barracks, and we have already touched the surrounding villages and towns on the Imperial side.

Now that Hal has defeated King Alford, the process is underway for his liberation, but in the first place, in principle, he has not allowed the imperial to cross the border.

But if you look at it, two raucous young women are sticking to the sticky for permission to pass.

"What's wrong?

"Ah, defensive commander. Actually..."

If you ask your soldier colleagues who suffer how Adamantius responded to the two fierce attacks, they won't even give in to the nearly half-month stop already, and they're awfully sticky every day.

"Hmm... it's a strange thing, is there a situation?... Anyway, let's talk.

Adamantius approached the two, saying so.

"... so you can't cross the border, ladies.

As in Lucius's time, a long-haired girl bites Adamantius, dressed in the clothes of the group islands as she embarks herself on a desk, without being convinced of Adamantius' well-reasoned explanation, which corresponds in the dining room.

"Why are there restrictions on going to see you inside!?

"Yes, I... I'm not inside, but there's someone on the other side who took care of you anyway... so I really want you to go through this place.

And although it is a travel costume, a flair girl, such as another imperial town daughter, makes an impossible request, albeit calm.

"No, you're not... because it's dangerous now..."

It was a warm personality Adamantius, but I was alone with these two.

Since the victory in Cilentium is still a state secret, but cannot be revealed, I can only repeat the usual explanation, but with my hands on my forehead to the new headache seed.

"... Anyway, I don't know where to go, but not now. For now, I want you to tell me your name and age, and then the name and destination of someone I know on the northern border. I think I can help later.

To the words of Adamantius, the two nodded, each saying his name and age, who he wanted to meet.

"Autumn Rugged Maple, 17! Qiu Ru Qingyi... it wasn't, it was inside the Hal Akircius Border Protection Officer. Do you know where you are now, uncle!

"I'm Primia Lott. I'm eighteen, but I'm almost nineteen. I'd like to meet someone who was an official of the Ministry of Security in the Imperial capital, Mr. Hal Akircius.

Two staring at the girl next to each other there.

"... Huh? Hal, do you know my brother?

"Mr. Hal's... inside?

Something sharp staggered in invisibility, and a cold sweat floated on Adamantius' forehead as he watched those two.

Ten days after the Northern Gateway, Teito Central District, Premier House Square

"... due to the above upside, Northern Border Guardian Hal Akircius took Alford, the barbarian king of the barbarian Cliffonam, by one horse, and not only snowed the stigma of his predecessor, the hero Altrius, but also defeated the army of his son Danford, bringing peace and tranquillity to the Northern Border. Emperor Magnus greatly commends this achievement and acknowledges to the Northern Border Guardian Officer the rebuilding of the 21st Legion of the Empire led by his hero Altrius..."

The announcement officer unfortunately shouts its loudness and reads out the announcement in front of the Senate Square.

Few people usually listen to announcements made twice a day at regular mornings and evenings, except by litigants, but as soon as the war on the northern border began to be announced, the rumors spread throughout the capital.

And on the evening when the second announcement takes place, the square is filled with imperial citizens who come to hear the announcement of the victory of Hull.

"... hey, wasn't Hal Akircius the magistrate who was flown north against the nobility?

"Sure, you remember it because it's an unusual name.

"Take a ride or... do it.

"I was left transitioned, but I didn't rot. I was trying.

"You still have a good official in the empire..."

When the announcement is read twice as prescribed, the citizens of Imperial City, who had listened quietly to the announcement until then, begin to blur.

Gradually the blurring began to fever, and when the excitement reached its peak, at times the voice of Hail the Empire began to rise from among the citizens of the Imperial City.

Societal obsession with quietly progressing corruption and identity inequality and wealth inequality had tied the citizens of the Imperial City, and how long had they become entangled in a dark atmosphere, but the voice of joy exploded, as if to exude something depressed by the sobering announcements of the breasts they would hear for a long time.

The Imperial City shook at the victory report, brought from the Northern Border Post.

Citizens of Imperial Capital were surprised that the left-handed and spirited officials worked hard on the border, not even in the face of adversity.

The aristocratic nobles feared that the officials who were supposed to have moved left had begun to give them the strength to fear.

The central official umbilicated that the success of the Silentium, which he had been hiding, had been revealed.

The faction feels good that the threat in the northern part of the empire has been greatly reduced, causing it to recruit ambition for the south.

And the senate disputed.
