Emperor! Can You See Stats!?

# Northern Frontline

“Your Grace! I think we're here. That's Fort Valdes. ”

A full week from the capital via the Development Node Stefan.

Yurius has finally arrived at Fort Valdes, the Northern Commander's Tower.

While the player Sharnos empire was built, he unified the oily central and southern regions, but failed to subdue only two.

It was a desert area centered on the mountains of the north and southern desert kingdoms that were the origins of this Valdes fortress, and the two obstacles were one of a kind.

Heaven's fortress saved the geographical advantage and the indigenous people's resistance is strong.

The Fortress of Valdes is the front line for stopping the immigrants in the north.

Lord Haynes, who is not yet accustomed to the cold in the north, gradually rises.

“It's so cold. I heard the Knights of the North rarely wear armor, so I understand. ”

“More than half of the year is a season of snow, so you'll be amazed. ”

Lord Haynes and Yurius grumble and enter the keep.

“Greetings, First Imperial Emperor! ”

As soon as he walks in, hundreds of knights on his right and left shout their greetings.

And at the end of that row was a figure that Urius was eager to see.

“Haha! I haven't seen you since you were a child, and I haven't said hello for a while, but I hope you remember. It's Anderson.”

The owner of the voice was strong in a word.

Over two meters tall, shoulder-width, and twice as tall as an adult man.

He bursts into laughter and greets Yurius.

Yurius, of course, was pleased to see you.

"He still looks like a bandit rather than a knight. ’

Overbearing shape, beady eyes, and unspoilt beard.

If it wasn't for the knight uniform, even the Northern Barbarians here would look trustworthy.

However, Yurius' gaze at him was endlessly dull.

‘It's been a long time. I hope you have a good relationship this time. ’

The late Anderson was the only superman in the empire who ever took his side. He and the Knights of the North were the only force that allowed him to survive the civil war for more than a decade.

"The Knights of the North are tough because of the environment, but one loyalty is true! ’

This was his assessment of the Knights of the North in his previous life.

Since the Empire is so vast, the front lines where troops are deployed are also quite wide.

Especially in the west or the eastern part of the ocean, where many friends, including the Holy Land of Tripos, are taking significant physical and human expenditure.

The most painful expenditure was the inputs of the knights.

Knights who could handle the Force were advanced personnel, and more than half of the Imperium's knights were stationed in the north and south.

However, knights from the north and south tend to be treated with the same luxury workforce but differently.

Once I looked at the southern knights, they were raised with enough support in a wealthy environment. The southern part of the Empire is home to the Grand Duke.

Knights born into a noble family and on elite courses are mainstream.

The Knights of the North are different.

‘The North is cold, rugged and has many undeveloped wastelands. ’

‘I heard that there are frequent battles with Barbarians. ’

Elites on normal courses are inevitably reluctant.

Therefore, there were quite a lot of knights who were fortunate enough to graduate from the Academy as an ordinary citizen and who were left behind because they were loathed for half gambling or power structures in order to build public education.

Of course, knights from the north and south are also bad to each other.

The Knights in the North? Aren't they supposed to be the lowliest of all? They have no knighthood, no dignity! ’

"Hmph, the Southern pigs aren't knights, they're just flashing armor! What are the chances of a knight pulling out his sword? ’

Yurius, of course, believes both sides have a point.

Clearly, the Knights of the North are tough and the Knights of the South are more experienced in combat.

‘But we cannot ignore the growing environment. ’

He never disparaged the Knights of the South.

It is because Yurius was also a noble man and he knows best how great Merritt is to be trained in a good environment as he grows up.

Yurius needs to come up with a plan in order to persuade the Knights of the North who have been roughly trained with harsh practical experience.

‘The late Anderson is a typical northern knight. It would create an opportunity for me to get acquainted with them. ’

Earl Anderson welcomes you on the surface, as Ursus had hoped, but when word reached Fort Valdes that he was coming to the north, he had much to worry about.

‘Your Highness, I think you are too shallow in the North. If you come, you'll have to work hard. ’

The late Anderson was not only a knight of great strength and loyalty, but he was a knight of considerable discretion and fair judgment, unlike he appeared to be.

He is not in charge of the Empire's change bag because he is entrusted with the Emperor's faith in the foam.

He was never a prince, and he didn't want to see the perks.

‘If you have come to take away our labor in favour of God, you will regret it. ’

He nods his head and finally decides.

“Call Lord Rinfield. ”

“You wanted to see me?”

“You've heard the news. ”

There is a slight tension in the face of the knight known as Linfield.

“I hear the First Prince is coming here. ”

“Yes. I'm sure you know why I called you. ”

Lord Rinfield sighs in front of his superior, Earl Anderson. Ordinary knights can be frightening, but not uncommon in the north.

“It would be difficult for the other colleagues to match the Crown Prince. ”

“Yes, it must be hard for you if you don't have a history with the Central Knights. ”

Lynfield is a rare northern knight from a wealthy aristocratic family, and a well-rounded head and an eminent acolyte trusted by the late Anderson.

“I plan to appoint you partial commander of the squad to the Crown Prince. It may be difficult, but this is also for the Empire, so please help the Crown Prince adjust. ”

“It is an honor for me to serve the Crown Prince. Thanks for letting us in! ”

Of course, Rinfield wasn't the most desperate of missions, but what can the late white man do for you?

‘I'm going to slow down my grievances for now. ’

Rinfield was well aware of the habits of so-called rare brethren. Perhaps the first person to receive the fiery wrath of the prince is expected to be himself and take a deep breath.

It started at the lodging.

“I'm sorry to have put you in such a filthy place. ”

The room guided by Yurius is quite large, but not too shabby inside. One large fireplace in the middle of the room and a few furniture, including beds.

The Fortress of Valdes was a large castle, but it prevents foreign invasion. The glamour inside made me less glamorous than a small aristocrat's mansion.

‘It's about to start. ’

When Rinfield is preparing his excuses, expecting the prince to complain immediately…….

“Perfect size for one's own use. Tell Earl Anderson thank you. ”

Huh?

Rinfield is greatly dismayed.

Honestly, even a nobleman would think it's too much to ask you to stay in a room like this. Isn't the prince's reaction too bold?

On the other hand, Yurius' thoughts do not concern him, and he is directed only to a knight named Lord Rinfield who is in charge of this guidance.

Did you say Lord Rinfield? You seem like a pretty decent guy. ’

Yurius liked this article, Rinfield, quite well.

‘This is a different type of knight than Lord Haynes. ’

He looks about the same age and his skills are similar to that of Lord Haynes before being guided by the Marquis of Carlos.

But to put that aside, Yurius' gaze was a shame of his intelligence.

"You're quite resourceful in rare cases for the Knights of the North, aren't you? ’

Although he was more resourceful than a charging captain fighting on the front line, he was able to use him as a Chief of Staff right next to the commander.

‘I think the Marquis of Anderson is quite a person.... Maybe you left it to me in order to satisfy my grievances, right? ’

Yurius has spent half of his former life in the company of northern knights. Of course, you can imagine what his sudden appearance would feel like in the north.

‘There will be no good feelings. ’

So Yurius needed to break his preconception that he had come out early to build the ball.

“Did you say your name was Sir Rinfield? ”

“Yes, it is. Your Majesty.”

Linfield suddenly feels that something is coming for Urius.

The first quote was also to taunt him.

‘Please leave without a ride...' ’

However, the words that came out of Yurius' mouth were completely different from his expectations.

“Before I came to the North, I heard that the first Knights to enter the North pay what I call a ‘flagging ceremony’. Is it true? ”

“Yes? Old! That's right."

Yurius smiles in contrition. This is the beginning.

“Then the knights who came with me need to receive it, too? ”

“Yes, but I don't think it's necessary, if the Crown Prince wishes. ”

Lynfield's answer makes a questionable face.

Where did you hear that? ’

In fact, most knights who come to the north don't even know that there is such a thing.

“Hmm……. I don't know what's going on, but if everyone has to pay, I don't want to make it go away. ”

Yurius has brought several more knights for escort, including Lord Haynes. They should also adapt quickly to the north.

‘In order to do that, the flag ceremony must be required. ’

Yurius gets to the point.

“Then I don't look like I'm missing anything that brought them here. Do you mind if I join you in the flag ceremony? ”

“ ……!? ”

Rinfield is so surprised.

The flag ceremony was in fact one of the inevitable ways for knights from the south to quickly get acquainted with the north, but it was not something I recommended to the prince.

“Your Highness! I'm sorry, but the flagship ceremony is too inappropriate for a nobleman. If you're a knight, you don't have to follow the Prince... ”

“Oh, so now you're going to treat me special? ”

“It's not like that……. ”

Yurius grumbles.

“I, too, am an unmanned and faithful knight trained for over a decade. I'm more curious as to what that means. ”

‘My prince, it's not worth it. ’

Linfield's outfit seems to burst, but Yurius never breaks his resolve.

“Then speak to the erl. I don't want special treatment! ”

"We're fucked!"

If you let the real emperor do that, he and the late Anderson will probably be uncomfortable with you the whole time he's here.

‘Huh, what should I do? ’

Rinfield has been on his way since the first day of the Crown Prince's arrival, but his head twitches to the Marquis, thinking that something bigger is about to happen than he expected.
