I haven't been back in Elsier in about two months.

First, we head to the village chief's house to gather information in his absence. I was telling her I was going back today, but I'm disappointed that I didn't get picked up.

I heard a little bit about Elsier's situation in the letter, but there are many worries. Me, the chief, and Loreau, who originally represented me in my absence, fell out, so I was choosing a new village chief surrogate during the winter. It wouldn't be weird because my muscles are so good and honest.

The only reason I came back so late was because by thoroughly tapping the supply line, it took me two weeks to starve the people who were at the supply base, and then three weeks to occupy the empty supply base and gather the refugees to guide them.

As I expected, there were quite a few refugees on the way from the Imperial Corps, soldiers who had originally been at the supply base and soldiers who had arrived there, starting to become bandits.

The bad reviews are spreading everywhere. Speaking to the refugees, about three hundred of them were to listen to me and start a new life.

The refugees' meals are covered with the food they got when they attacked their supply team. That wasn't enough, so I carried the spare wheat I bought in the commercial city of Erin from Elsier for about a t.

Since Khu burned the pantry, Iraqsa members had taken turns leaving nine of the two teams, eight + one Firefox, to let them go home and work a week's shifts. They were also limits in both spirit and flesh.

But there were negotiations with the refugees, and I was not the only one in charge.

Their transport to the supply base was, at first, alert, with escorts since the second raid, but could be dealt with adequately, not in large numbers. Maybe the situation between the supply base and the Elsier invasion squad hadn't been communicated.

"I'm going to be happy and I'm going to cry. There's no such thing as a strange philosophy. Elsier just leaves for a while. Will he be so loving?"

"Good day, Cyril. Cyril never came back."

Lucier walking next door speaks the language of labor.

"It's spring."

The greenery grew and warmer in a month and a half from the snowflake. The hard, long winter is finally over.

From here on out, let's harvest the turnips raised by the Firefoxes to plant wheat and potatoes.

"Are you all right with what you've left on that base?"

"Ku, it's okay. I have food for February, and I gave him seed and potatoes. Originally, that base was where half a farm and half a soldier were gathered, except for some great people, so both farmland and wells are on the site.

It's spring and there's more food in the woods, and we'll figure it out ourselves. They've lived on this land forever. "

It's a secret to everyone, but the Empire guys were squeezing their last force to ruin the farmland so they wouldn't be used by us, but they called Queiro the Dwarf and made it the best condition in earthly attribute sorcery, and we ate to the point where we could plant crops anytime. If this doesn't work, I'll die doing whatever it takes.

It seems cold, but that's all I can do.

"Cyril is amazing after all. I can't believe you saved so many lives. And free of charge. Respect!

"It's not free."

I grin bitterly at the sight of Kuw, who turns a respectful eye.

"The seed and seed potatoes I gave you are promised to be doubled and returned at the time of harvest, and ownership of the supplies at the supply base left by the Empire lies with Elsier.

If there is an Imperial raid on it, ask them to fight the Cage Castle after they have skipped contact with Elsier. I'm trying to use them as Elsier's shields. So this is just the result of fair negotiations. "

Some of them have conscription experience, and they train people who can fight between farms.

The Empire was also devastated by this expedition. Yes, it should not form a new army. There will be only time to become proficient.

If it's a Cage Castle fight, it won't be easily dropped unless there's a couple of times the difference in power, and even if it was dropped, it'll buy us just enough time to take action.

The biggest part is that they run out of supply points when they raid Elsier. That's more than doubling the amount of food and equipment they need.

Sometimes the elves and fire foxes alone could not sprain the personnel that would make them reside there, and helping the refugees even by consuming food and gold would be a plus.

"But Cyril is still sweet. I think Cyril's condition is just a condition of conscience. I'm just giving you food."

"Lucier is right. Five times the seed. Give it back! It's about the market."

Only Ku and Lucier, who are quite educated among elves and fire foxes, are right.

They're right. This situation would narrow it down more. But...

"I sold you a favor. If I get you this far, yes, I won't betray you.... Normally. First of all, you don't have to squeeze it out of there to squeeze more money."

"Squeeze it out?"

"Where are you from?

Without you both knowing my intentions? I had Mark in my head.

"That's all I've been bothered with. It's up to the loser empire."

"But if I tell you to pay, you'll never pay me."

You're absolutely right. To take compensation in war, we need to set up a place to occupy an enemy country or put in a third party, both of which are impossible stories in Elsier.

"It feels good to give me money in return. So I'll have them buy what's on the supply base."

"Cyril, maybe those guys' gear?

"You're right. Iron gear. I'd rather pay us than rebuild it, but I want to buy it back."

The food for 5,000 people prepared for the supply base was burned together, but most of the equipment they prepared remains.

Exactly. No one seemed to be able to bring out any heavy equipment, although no wise Imperial soldier was left to take away the money or anything else that could easily be brought out in order to escape to starve to death.

I'd like to sell this out of the empire, but it's tough to transport heavy iron gear to Erin, a commercial city that's going to buy it off.

Then it's easiest for the Empire to come and buy it. If this one is to designate a location, it can easily be trapped when trying to take it away by exercising strength.

If there is a situation that cannot be dealt with, it is if the three Dukes who guard other than the Elsier side join hands and put out a massive army. On this scale, you can also use a warm trump card if that's all you're dealing with.

"He's going to pay for it, but I don't think he needs to bother returning his weapon."

"Right. It's dangerous."

"You're so thoughtful. Iron weapons aren't that much of a threat to us. So if you take the money and exhaust your national power, that's enough. Besides, I'm going to blow it to the point where it feels like it's too much. I have a lot to do with that money."

The supply base is equipped with iron for three thousand people. There were about four thousand and five hundred of them, but they just couldn't get us all the gear.

Still, if you sell it all, you'll get as much money as Elsier can run for a few years. Still, it's noisy.

There are signs of people in the square.

"Is it some kind of event?

"Hmm, I don't know."

"Yeah, I don't know either"

That's what he says in his mouth, but they're both smiling with a pranky look on their faces. I know something for sure.

The two of them were right and left, each arm tightly together so as not to escape.

And when you go out into the square...

"Welcome home!

"Here comes the hero."

"Dear Cyril! Marry me."

"Lucier, I envy a beautiful girl like Ku in both hands or something."

"Thanks!"

He greeted me with warm words and full applause.

The people of Elsier are gathered together in total, and a desk is set up, and liquor and glass are prepared.

Is that why you weren't picked up? This kind of sight has something coming up in my chest.

Make sure Lucier and Kuw push you on the back and head to the routine, step-high stage in a prominent position.

At that time, Chemin the Yellow Firefox and Krone the Black Firefox appeared.

Stop your legs and talk to the two of you. Bend your knees and gaze.

"I wonder what's wrong, both of you"

"Brother Cyril, thank you for keeping your word. Yukino is happy to have you back safely, Kro."

"I appreciate it too. And this is from the Elsiers."

Put on me a necklace made of flowers, the sound of applause.

It's a flower that finally begins to bloom when spring arrives. My cheeks loosen to a cute fragrance.

"That's it, but because I couldn't give you a proper look, I forced Yukino to do it until he fell. I don't deserve to be thanked."

If I had looked at him more properly, I would have noticed Yukino's anomaly. I was obsessed with the battle and my horizons narrowed.

"Yeah, Yukino was grateful to Brother Cyril. So thank you."

When Klone said that, they turned around on both sides of me, stretched their backs and kissed their cheeks.

Cute and smiling, little girl kiss. Is this the most important thing they said?

"I'm happy for you both. This is the most important thing you guys said?

"Yeah, I'm not. The most important of the Clos will be delivered later. I'll probably bust it, so I'll put it to bed, roll it around and deliver it. I'm not being honest."

"So stay tuned! I'll keep it cute as I tie it up. Good luck with another job, brother Cyril."

I can't imagine anything important about you two at all.

My sister sent me to the stage. Everyone's attention comes to me.

Take a deep breath and open your mouth.

"I know you're already listening, but we won! Elsier beat the four thousand and five hundred men the Empire sent out for a must win! Now, yes, they can't prepare for the next. It's cheap for a while!

Big cheers. Too overwhelming a battle power difference. And overturning it makes me rejoice.

"The winners were Ku and Yukino the Firefox, all the Iraqsas who fought desperately for me. And thanks to all the Elsiers who supported us. Thanks everyone!"

Crunchy and common words. But I say with certainty that there is no better word for this situation.

"Celebrate today's victory and toast! Grab my glass."

Alcohol was available. Elsier wine, it's our booze. But everyone doesn't move.

Why? I tilt my neck.

Then Lucier and Kuw, who were next door, laugh couscous.

"Guys, you're right. I thought Cyril would put it this way."

"Cyril, you haven't given the name of the most important of those who worked hard. We all realize that, don't we!

Everyone nods at Ku's well-traveled voice. The most important person?

"Bye, guys. I'm coming with you."

Lucier's hanging creates a moment of silence. And...

"" "Thank you. Cyril" "

A word of gratitude was said for me.

"Cyril's right, everyone worked really hard, but, you know, Cyril's the one who worked the hardest."

"This is not just our opinion. It's everyone's opinion. So, thank you. And I'm tired. Cyril."

My face turns bright red. Probably the best light I've ever had in my life.

I had tears in my eyes, so I brutally wiped it with my hem.

"Come on, cheers. Let's toast quickly! Something about that, wow, lights up. I want to get you out of here."

The neighborhood grows. There's really going to be a fire coming out of my face. But it's not bad.

I'm sure Lucier and Kuwe thought about this development. But I didn't feel a lie as anyone else. That's what I'm really telling you. That's why I can't contain the emotions that gush.

Now they all put up the glass properly.

"Cheers!"

The bumping sound of the glass rang.

And deliciously, enjoy Elsier's new hometown flavoured Elsier wine.

I took a sip too. I feel nostalgic even though it's only the second time.

Nevertheless, I didn't expect you two to do it. We have to take revenge. It's just the right opportunity for both of us to feel ashamed to death.

"Guys, the fight is over, and here's a serious announcement. Just listen to me while you're drinking."

Attention was drawn to me again. Lucier and Kuw are decent.

So let them keep their shoulders close together.

"Gee, Cyril, suddenly what?"

"Well, all of a sudden in a place like this"

We are both surprised by the sudden. But it's too early to be surprised.

"We're getting married. We shall both be daughter-in-law under the authority of the chief. Look forward to another grand ceremony!

That's what I said, I kissed you both. I hear all sorts of screams from everyone.

It varied from yellow screams thriving in Elsier celebrities' marriage to each other, to the resentment of a man whose two beautiful Elsier girls were taken at once, to the jealousy of a woman who was after me on the contrary, to the pure celebration of our blessings.

The two people holding their shoulders were turning their faces bright red and screaming without a voice.

It feels good.

"Cyril, it's terrible. I'm not ready for anything."

"Me too. I still have a really good heart."

"Actually, so am I."

They laughed out loud after a moment in my words.

"You're embarrassing yourself to death. But this isn't bad either. Right?"

On that inquiry, they looked at each other and then slowly shook their heads vertically and nodded. The two of us can't wait to love each other. Let's keep up the good work so the three of us can live happily ever after.
