Dungeons for the Devil, Dungeons for the Core (Book Version Title: A Different World Dungeon Made with the Devil)

Chapter 223 Disturbances on Mud Routes 1. Morphan Royal Castle [With Map]

The stage changed and this was Morphan's royal castle.

Illustrious internal consent was obtained for the study of royalty in the corners and in the walls. First of all, one inquiry from the person in charge of practice about the arrow tip that I thought was also a paragraph of work... broke the peace of mind of Lord of Finance at once, but it was also grand.

As I said, since it is necessary to prepare a budget for the princess's study abroad, please tell me the number of carriages and the travel route planned.

This one inquiry was to open the lid of either the Hell's Cauldron or the Witch's Cauldron.

― ― The time was September, and strangely it was the day that the Kites' party arrived in the town of Wallenbeek.



"... road maintenance...?"

If the Third Princess is going to study abroad early next year, we can't let her walk the bad road.

"That's... that's right...?"

"Something's wrong... ah!"

The face of the young Secretary of State, who seems to have noticed the problem, dramatically fades past the blue... and whitens.

"That's right. There's no problem around the capital, and the road from Fenthofen to Yurenberg will be fine." But beyond that... what's going on on the road from Neuwalde to Illustria, especially through Tula? "

The secretaries of state who have been able to swallow the situation are frozen, but I will explain it for a reader who may not be able to swallow the situation here.

If you are aiming for an illustration from Moltrán, the capital of Morfán, it is best to go from Wallenbeek to Tula if you think about it as a straight line. This is the case when flying dragons (Weyburn) are actually used.

However, the situation is slightly different when it comes to overland. There is a vast wetland between Mortland and Wallenbeek, and there is still no route that a carriage can take on foot or on its own. Therefore, we will go from Fenthofen to the border via Yurenberg and Tula. As a result, I was forced to go somewhat further afield, but that was still good.

The problem is that the exchange between Morphan and Illustria has not flourished so far.

Since the exchanges were not abundant, the development of the road leading to Biaohe (today) Illustria was put off...... but the road ahead of Neuwalde was not a fine substitute for flattery. It goes without saying that the bumps are terrible, and there are not one or two places where it is possible to disengage a large carriage. No, on the contrary, even the road conditions between Yurenberg and Neuwald were not always praised.

In addition to this, there was the peculiarity of a city called Tula.

The city of Tula was built to confront the Illustrious Norland across the border, and it was a defensive base early on.

From the point of view of preparing for the invasion from the illustrious side, the road from Tula to the border was easily developed, so it was out of bounds... From the point of view of military necessity, the widening of the road width was not even neglected or leveled.

― ― It was out of the question to pass through the royal carriage.

The reason I didn't realize this was because it was simple, and no one went through the street in question.

After all, Morphan territory is vast. That's why I often used Flying Dragon (Weyburn) to get around.

The envoys sent to Illustria were no exception to that, flying with a flying dragon (Weyburn) to the front of the border, and from there onwards, as expected, the unnecessary imitation of flying with a flying dragon (Weyburn) in the sky of a neighbouring country was tailored to enter Illustria.

In other words, no one had actually seen the road conditions in Yurenberg-Nowalde-Turra, which were at issue, and it was outside of consciousness.

"... you can't use Flying Dragon (Weyburn)... can you?"

"If it's just a courtesy visit, we'll still be able to manage. But not this time. It's not a one-time visit, it's a study trip. Servants and carriages carrying household effects will be accompanied."

"Let me tell you something from the business side... I was thinking that I might be able to attract a non-hume trade corps on the occasion of this study abroad." Even so, the streets of Kanane are rough, and there are monsters and bandits..... "

I don't want to talk about it...

As I mentioned earlier, the city of Tula is bored and preoccupied with defensive functions, so we are not working to eliminate the elements that will prevent the enemy forces from invading - monsters, beasts, bandits, etc. However, Tura's guards have been assigned to guard their own citizens who are trying to cross the border, and this was the same on the illustrator side. Therefore, it can be said that a minimum level of security has been established, but it is also true that the situation is far from what is described as safety and comfort. At the very least, it's unlikely to be a soliciting or selling word for non fumes.

"...... even if I do this here, it won't start. Anyway, the first thing we need to do is check the road conditions."

That's why Flying Dragon (Weyburn) was dispatched from Moltran, the capital of the kingdom, to various places.....



"... after all, between Neuwalde and Tula, it needs maintenance..."

"It's also on a massive scale."

"Between Yurenberg and Neuwald." There are a few problem areas. "

"From Tula to the border..."

With Tula's garrison... we have no choice but to ask Uncle Burkhorn to help us.

"That's fine near the border... what else do we do?"

"The lord alone can't make it." As a country... yes, how about hiring an adventurer to do the work? "

"It's going to be winter... but fortunately, the problem is at the southern end of our country." The cold and the snow are not so bad. If we work a little bit in the winter, we'll manage by the time the snow melts. ”
