Create 10 more mobile baristas and catapults to take home.I struggled to match the number of arrows and bullets, but I've already made quite a few, so I managed.
After that, it's just Arte's persuasion.
"... I knew it, even though it was reinforcements, I was going to join the war.I think I should go with you... see, I'm getting used to carriage journeys, and it's really okay.Don't say thank you or borrow money. "
I repeated such persuasion over and over, but Arte wouldn't listen.I am politely and sincerely refused every time.I've never seen Arte so stubborn.
"Oops, I'm forced to accompany the mobile baristas and catapults...."
What's the matter? With that in mind, Arte came next to me and picked the hem of his clothes at a time when no one was there.
Looking at the side, thinking of something, he saw Arte with a large tear in his eyes.
"Well, what's the matter? You're worried, you want to leave already?I'm going to be out tomorrow..... "
To tell you the truth, Alte shook his shoulders and shook his neck from side to side.
Shit. Didn't I ever understand femininity? [M]
Because I don't know what to do, Van, your pure heart is full of guilt.
I was staring at Arte sobbing for a while, but eventually the calming Arte opened his mouth.
"... I'm sorry. Van said he was really worried about me.... I..."
That said, I finally realized Arte's complicated mood.
At all, I will never learn the way of nobility. [M]
"... I see. If I were to save the plight of Count Ferdinate, the Count's family would..."
As he murmured, Alte looked up at me with a weepy face and buried his face in his chest as if he were holding on to me.
"I'm sorry...!"
An apology like throwing up Arte's blood.
Are you sure about this?
What bothers Alte is the aristocratic notion that the interests of the Earls must be prioritized.Originally, it would be desirable for the person I sent out as my fiancée to be active, but this time I'm alive (...) leaping (...) passing (...) and (...) (...).
My territory is minimal from the beginning. [M]It also borders on the Yelinetta Kingdom, which is in a state of war this time.
It was thanks to my barista and catapult that the defeat was so intense from the side. [M]His Majesty the King will reward me for my achievements.
If we were to reward only money here, Van, who has only a tiny territory on the border, would be treated badly.Some of the nobles may even be distrustful of the King's exploitation.
For territorial nobles, the most stable income is tax revenue from residents.The nobility of a vast and rich land can be seen at a glance.
Now, Van, if we're going to give you territory, where are we going to get it?
Only the territory of the Marquis of Fertilo and the territory of the Count of Ferdinate can be given as a reward.
What would His Majesty do if I joined forces to defend Count Ferdinate's territory under such circumstances?Count Ferdinate, whose reputation is declining from the beginning, will be scrapped off even more territory.
Nevertheless, the Count is not punished because he is involved in the Sudden Rescue battle himself.In other words, it will be in the form of money or the scrapping off of land on the Yelinetta Kingdom's side and giving it in its place.
It's a delicate decision for other nobles, but it's the most likely line because they want to expand Van's territory with the strongest Baristas and the strongest Catapults.
Alte thought of that and wanted to help the Earl of Ferdinate with his own strength as a human being.
Well, because of your character, even if Alte commands the weapon, I know I made it, so I'll take care of it.
With that in mind, I put my arms together and roared. [M]
"... then there's no choice. Alte will return home temporarily, so I will appoint ten from the Knights and twenty adventurers as my escort.Then you can take the doll Alte liked instead of me. "
When he said so with a sigh of sigh, Alte lowered his head deeply as he wiped his tears.
Well then, I'll go.
"Don't push me.If we're in danger, we can retreat and fight again. "
Worried, Olt, the adventurer, slapped his chest and raised his face.
"I'll take care of it. We'll escort you."
When Olt said so, the other members nodded with a smile.
"Leave it to me. Now I'm ready to join Van's mechanical bow squad."
Pretty well, the whale poses with a shooting machine bow in both hands. The two pistols are a man's dream, but it is communal when the whale is in a poachery shape.
Incidentally, the clumsy whale has mastered the mechanical bow as declared and is now starting to do things like teach other adventurers.
In that sense, the adventurers staying in the villages of Ceato and Esperda have reached a level of isolation.
"... it's okay, we'll protect the future wife."
Pruliel also strongly asserted. But for some reason I'm angry because I'm half-laughing.This is a bad onee-san's face to embarrass the child.
"Please, we'll pay you extra when everyone is intact and completes their mission. I asked you."
While laughing bitterly, the adventurers raised their hands and cheered.
Then Til and Camsin, who had gotten to know each other well, bid Arte farewell, and Arte and the others went all the way to the Count of Ferdinate.
I thought it would be all right if I sneaked in with a large number of people, but I couldn't keep the door shut. [M]They'll find out somewhere.
My teeth are itchy, but I have to trust Alte and send them out this time.
Standing blurry in front of the castle gate, Arte and the others stayed still even when they could not see, and while coughing, Esperda approached.
"Well, Van, I've got a lot of work to do.Let's get started. "
"Hey, the finish... you can feel this lukewarm air, Espada..."
"I've given you time to change your mind.We're out of time. Now, as lords, we need you to think about the territory. "
"Er... I've been working quite a while since I got back.You haven't been resting here for a while. I'm gonna die. "
"As long as there are grievances, it's okay.Now, let's start by reporting on the situation in the village during your absence.There was also Radavesta from Apkar and Bell from the Bellango Chamber of Commerce who wanted to meet. "
"... will you prioritize it at Esperda's discretion?Let's do it in turn. Oh, it's a festival tonight, isn't it?I won't give it up. If you don't have a barbecue, you'll boycott your work. "
"... I can't help it. If it was true, I planned to study at night....."
"Ghost!? I thought it was suspicious for a long time, but it's a real demon!?"
When Esperda and I first had such an exchange in a long time, there was a loud laugh from around us.
Instead of sheltering, she even laughs at Till and Camsin.
Absolutely incredible men.The lord would be very angry if it weren't for me.
