In November of the Holy Calendar 514, I go for Brunhill with a few soldiers.

Eastwood to Brunhill is a boat ride away.

Originally, Eastwood was a lake-floating city, with rivers flowing from the lake to the Kilpath River, making it possible to travel water to Brunhill.

It is not only aquatic demons that cross the Great Forest in the river, but also unsafe to travel on the water because various demons are expected to strike.

Unless it's me.

We head down an unnamed river, into the Kilpath River and take the port city whale to Brunhill.

Since we now maintain a street from Fort Felk to Eastwood, it's a carriage from Eastwood to Brunhill. It's about eighteen days' journey via Fort Felk, but this light moon (...) allows us to travel in six days by using the waterway.

This is a story that can be achieved because the last six days are light moons, and it would take nearly 11 days if it were a regular ship.

Still, I'm pretty sure you can shorten your time more than you can by land.

The utilisation of waterways will not only allow large quantities of supplies to be transported at once, but will also increase the number of merchants heading to Eastwood in Brunhill, as the waterway focal point will be Brunhill in position, as well as capital investments such as ship construction.

Further, cities in the south are often connected by waterways, so there is a good chance that people will come and go to other cities.

My father also knows that it is in the interest of the Brutozelles Border House, and the south will prosper even more if we give land and funds and pioneer to those who had merit from among the ministers around the waterway.

And if the land is successfully pioneered, it is also possible to give the title to its minister.

In other words, the development rush could be visited not only in the southern part of the territory of the Earl of Brute Ease, but also in the territory of the Brutus Border Berg.

The journey by boat goes smoothly through the lake into the river and across the Great Forest.

The Lord of this river was a crocodile demon named Emperor Crocodile, a vicious demon designated as Rank S (...).

I also found this river survey connecting to the lake when I built Eastwood over the lake, and I remember it was quite resisted.

Nor did I take or kill a habitat in response to such an emperor crocodile as an adult.

Because there are powerful demons living there, so I thought I'd let them play a part in keeping the lakes and rivers safe.

I mean, you put Emperor Crocodile in my family and entrusted me with the management of the lake-centric river.

No, I had a hard time being a family member.

There are subtle forces to show you my power so you don't kill me and show me the difference in power.

That's why I'm not interrupting my journey in the lake or in the river.

Hmm?

We're gonna cross the Great Forest, so there are demons outside the lake, right?

Well, I'm here, but... well, I guess the Emperor Crocodile Education (OHANASI) is doing its job.

Because crocodiles can do quite a bit of activity on the ground.

It wasn't until six days after we got to Brunhill as planned.

As was the case when I stopped at the port city whale en route, but at first I was seen with strange eyes as to whether my ship was unusual.

Well, sailboats and hand rowing boats are common in this world, so compared to those boats, my boat is definitely a ship out of common sense.

My father greeted me at the defensive command post near the harbor, but he still looks at that ship and makes his eyes black and white.

"Christoph, what is that ship? I have no sails and I don't see any oars. How are you moving it?

"Father, that is a magic vessel called" Mitsukishi ", a Whale Class 1 vessel. The Magic Boat is powered by an engine called the Magic Furnace without the need for sails or oars, and the ship itself is powered by magical effects."

I'll keep it in my scratchy description because my fathers won't understand me even if I tell a very small difficult story.

This Whale Class 1 ship is named Light Moon because its hull shines silver.

The whale class demon ship has a total length of 93 m, a total width of 26 m, a drainage of 12,500 tons (14,000 tons when loaded), a minimum number of operators of 25 (540 maximum passengers), a maximum speed of 55 knots, a cruise speed of 32 knots, three demon cannons and 40 series of small demon cannons.

32 knots of cruise speed is about 60 Km/h, so as a ship in this world, it is a breaking speed, and there is no need to rely on wind or manpower, so the operating schedule does not fluctuate significantly from schedule.

There is no such thing as a ship capable of speeding this fast on a ship in this world, but it is impossible.

There are three types of artillery shells available for the three Magic Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery Artillery

For this reason, by far the largest ship in the Kingdom of Saint Bandam is the Acres class, 60 m long, owned by the Brutozelles Border House, so the Whale class is 1.5 times the total length.

"... the Magic Boat? Well, I don't know, but it's Christoph... what's on that deck?

Father, please don't force me to convince you that I'm the one who doesn't understand.

"That's a big one is a demon cannon, and the small one is a weapon called a serial small demon cannon, right? It allows magic attacks without wizards or magicians."

"Whatever! Can you use magic without a wizard or magician?!

"Tomorrow I'll show you the strength of the Magic Boat with my training."

"Right! I'm looking forward to it!

After that, he goes to the Lordship Hall with his father and greets his mother and hugs Ignaerts.

This Lordship Hall is built on the grounds of Brunhill Castle. Normally, affairs are carried out in this Lordship Hall.

"Ignaerts got a little heavy while you didn't see it. You look good and your brother's happy."

"Christoph was very worried because he was light, but Ignaz will drink milk well and you can rest assured"

She said I was born sick and weak, so my mother's hard work would have been huge.

But now I'm a body that won't die easily trying to kill me!

How dare you!

The following day, a military conference will be held to gather key figures from the southern nobility and the Brutozelles Border House who are assembling before conducting combat training by Mitsuki, the Whale Class No. 1 ship.

"They all got together a lot. This St. Orion movement will be quicker than usual and we will reach Lake Zilpen by mid-next month."

The indoors become noisy when the trends in St. Orion's country from the Father are communicated.

The reason for the noise was simple and the St. Orion nation moves fast, as Father told it.

Even if the St. Orion nation moved in previous battles, I could afford about two months in time, but this time I will reach Lake Zilpen in a month.

This is six months to a month faster than expected by the nobles.

However, I am somewhat upset because I was originally prepared for the movement of St. Orion.

"I was my second son in this battle on my behalf, and I decided to march Christoph, who was recently recited to the county by His Majesty. I'm inexperienced, but I want you all to stand up."

"There was a certain place where Lord Christoph was instantly killed with one fingertip of rank C's Big Grizzly. Sincerely, with your son, I envy Lord Ernest."

It's Count Bethes holding me up.

Count Bethes is a nobleman who rules the opposite section of Brunhill across Lake Gimball, originally a branch of the Brutozelles Border Uncle family, but is allowed and independent to name the prestigious Bethes surname, which once severed a great battle power in the days of the king a few generations ago.

The current owner is Lord Akaizak, 55 years old, has a scratch on his right cheek and feels like General THE.

Lord Akaizaku seems to have watched that chavan I fought against the Big Grizzly in His Majesty's (Tanuki) conspiracy. He's pretty much Respecting me, and Father admires Lord Akaizaku like his brother.

"As long as you're happy to say that to Lord Akaizak. But I don't want you to spoil me on the battlefield."

"You won't have to do that. Still, if you're anxious, someone risked their life to say something."

"Um, I'm counting on you."

This conversation is a play between Father and Lord Akaizak to create the fait accompli that Lord Akaizak, the fierce warrior, recognized me as commander-in-chief, but thanks to that, the nobles of the South no longer have the atmosphere to say no about me.

And then the story moved on, and two days later, 200 vessels of the Bethes family and 100 vessels of the Royal Direct Army, commanded by Lord Akaizak, were to make the first move towards Fortress Zilpen.

The main body of the Brutzelles Border House, led by me, will also leave in ten days, but before that we are supposed to conduct combat training by Mitsuki.

"This flagship shall be a light moon. It's a giant military ship, and its hull shines silver, and as a flagship, there will be no more beauty."

"I've seen the beauty of the light moon. I've lived on the battlefield for a long time, but I've never seen a battleship like that before, and I'd love to get on board before I die."

Brunhill is a huge city and one of the greatest cities in the Kingdom of Holy Bandham.

Slam streets exist in Brunhill like any other big city, but security is still pretty good compared to any other big city.

There was a shadow gathering in the corner of such a slam.

Its chest was lit with snake symbols tangled in swords, Orion symbols they called Snepaths.

They are the intelligence agents who accompanied this troop departure from St. Orion.

However, they were still unable to achieve the seemingly fruitful results.

That was because there was obstruction by the guards of the Brutozelles Border House.

"The Earl of Brute Ease has stopped by."

"Um, have you seen that ship? If that thing were put into battle, our country would be devastated!

"We have to get that ship's information to the main unit. Bezka and Simon need to fly now."

Those who appear to be their commanders gave instructions to deliver the information of the Light Moon to the Expeditionary Army.

It was then that their gathering house was engulfed in explosions and flashes.

The Brunhill Guard waited for them to gather like this.

Earlier in the day, intelligence agents from St. Orion's country had discovered that they were lurking in Brunhill, but they were more cautious than expected and rarely gathered close to ten in this way.

The Guard did not miss this opportunity to destroy the intelligence agents of St. Orion.

It was eight days after the departure that 500 units of the Southern Horse Army, using the light moon as their flagship, left Brunhill to reach the Zilpen fortress via the port city whale.

It is only ten days after St. Orion's arrival at the Fortress of Zilpen at this point.

According to information, more than 1,500 ships will be assembled at the Gornew Fortress, and we will be approaching this Zilpen Fortress in ten days.

Uncle Bethes, Earl of Akaizark von Bethes, who was ahead of Fortress Zilpen, has already mastered the power of Fortress Zilpen and has not failed to gather information.

That's right, Christoph wraps his tongue around being a fierce warrior.

"The Kingdom of Sagarashi has 150 ships, the Kingdom of Cyprus has 180 ships, and they think it will be at the vanguard."

The Kingdom of Sagarathi and the Kingdom of Cyprus are small nations sandwiched between the Kingdom of St. Bandam and the State of St. Orion, and they send troops between the Kingdom of St. Bandam and the State of St. Orion, as they do this time because they are now subordinate to the State of St. Orion.

Even they don't want to be involved in wars between big countries, but they can't survive if they decide to be opportunistic.

It is therefore a sad situation for a small country, a sad country that has been embroiled in centuries-old warfare by the Kingdom of Holy Bandham and the Holy Orion.

"Not only can we repel the invasion of the St. Orion nation in this battle, but we attack the Gornew Fortress. Therefore, the Kingdom of Sagarashi and the Kingdom of Cyprus need to be incorporated into our faction"

Ernest's instructions to Christoph are extremely simple.

1, Exit St. Orion country.

2. Falling the Fortress of Gornew, which is also the front-line base of St. Orion.

3, Take the Kingdom of Sagarashi and the Kingdom of Cyprus into their own factions, which will always pass on the journey to Gornew.

Drop the Gornew Fortress, which you have been proud of for so long, as Uncle Bethes and others who first heard of it gazed at Ernest for a while, waving impotence at his son.
