From a terminal Soldier to Monarch

It was the old nobleman, Breon Dutch, who brushed his white hair behind him.

“How did you know? I don't know about that. ”

I don't think I'm keeping my manners.

Wheelken chuckles. And the look on Dutch's face wrinkled as he saw it.

I looked at the faces of the nobles gathered around me, including him.

Breon Dutch, an old man in his sixties, on the south side of my territory.

Right next to him was the man with the most common brown hair on the central continent.

The strength of the knight standing behind him was unusual. Baron Sabenad. He was the richest landlord in the territory around me.

“Eat this shit? ”

You hear the muttering of a fleshy pig. Yod Ventes, eldest son of Earl Ventes.

The territory between Prince Savenad to the west of my camp and Count Dutch to the south is Count Ventes.

Four very important people.

From Earl Ludwig's Whelken.

Savannah to the west.

Beneath it, Ventes.

Dutch to the south.

There's only one person that really matters. In addition, I've sent congratulations and messengers from several nearby lands, but I ignored them all.

I have calmly collected information in my mind. The problems of Baron Savannah to the west, the problems of Birch Dutch to the south.

Why Hülken is here, why Earl Ventes' eldest son is here.

There is no unreasonable behavior in noble events. Earl Vantes' firstborn son was famous for his children.

It means the prince is a wretch.

Outwardly, Earl Ventes was known to be quite ambitious and a historic nobleman who had inherited the Earl's throne for two generations.

What did he want? There must be a reason he threw that pig at me.

Is Earl Vantes trying to test me? If not, maybe he's trying to catch up.

It was impossible to fully read the intent of the inner Black Noble, far away.

Earl Vantes' work has been postponed for now.

What about Wheelken?

Why did he come? There was nothing to think about. He was looking at me.

Before I left for the palace, I remembered the duel I had with him. It would have been my defeat, but not a small shock to Wheal Kern.

He came to see me. I could have been sent by the servants to restrain me. After all, Hülken was the vice knight who outranks me.

Once they were here, they weren't important. There's only one person that matters.

“I'll be frank. ”

I looked at Savannah and Dutch without turning my back.

They wanted different things. Baron Savannah was a well-attended and typical human being.

Fame is what he wants. Just as the ambitious man grumbled, he wanted to go higher.

He didn't look me in the eye from the start. The eyes of the confident are full of light.

I am Vise Knight, and I have a great reputation, but do I really have to compare it to everyone?

Among the common sayings of the continent:

The rumors are ten times the truth.

Rumors are masks of truth.

Fame doesn't represent his skills. In other words, he knew that I was the vice knight and had come to take away my honor.

A silent knight stands behind Savannah's man and is trampled in the eye. I think he means "at least vice knight." Otherwise, I wouldn't dare leave my reputation and come here.

“Doesn't this bother you about the Goblins? ”

So what I'm saying is, it's for one person only. It's not Savannah, it's not Hülken. It's you, Baron Dutch. This is for you.

My eyes turned to the old nobleman with white hair. I know his situation.

His land is south of here and adjacent to the southern continent.

It was a troubled land because of the Southern people who came up to ignore the border every year.

The irony was that Dutch's main business was a black deal with the southern continent. Southern peoples are all those who have different meanings, so some are pillaging their land and others are dealing with them.

The annual damages were approximately five or more gold coins. It wasn't all the damage that was turned into money.

Territories are the land of the living. By standing alone on a land where no man lives, can he become a lord?

Money, castles, houses, and lands were all that were needed to make a territory, but the most important was also one.

People.

Without people, it's nothing.

But who wants to live in a land where thieves who kill people fall to plunder?

“... Goblin. ”

Birch Dutch grimaces and grits his molars. Now, let's make a deal.

Even the Goblin horde appears to be in trouble because of his band of bandits.

It was not a small number, but a thousand hordes led by Hobgoblin.

Hopgoblins from Fraunmoont Territory must have done a good job.

“You must be very tired. ”

I said, there was blood on his forehead.

“Are you picking on me? ”

The bird asks me.

Sivi, no way.

Now, this is the moment when Hobgoblin's poop becomes a medicine.

“I'll take care of it. ”

Despite the lack of money, no land, and half the castle collapsing, there is something in Prawnmund's territory that Birch Dutch does not have.

“You want to help me?"

He looks at me and asks, "What are you talking about?"

Of course, I want to help.

“Five gold coins every month. ”

I'll get paid.

A brief silence settles on the left. It was Dutch who broke the silence.

“…… You're going to rob me of money? ”

Soon the horn rose from Dutch birch's forehead and a flame burst from his mouth. I spoke to him in anger.

“Not only the Goblins, but the southern bandits that come every year. ”

Bait throws what the opposing Pokémon will never refuse. Dutch dictator was unable to refuse this deal because of a black deal with the Southern nations.

Jabrian was definitely a born merchant. I learned from her that an offer she couldn't refuse.

“I'll take care of it first. After that, look at the results of the Doubloons. ”

Duke Dutch could never refuse this offer.

He said he'd get the money later and he'd solve his problems.

Birch Dutch opens his mouth without a worry.

“If that's what you want. ”

All nobles value their own interests first. Dutch Birch saw that the deal was a wholly profitable deal for him.

Of course it was his idea.

I laughed at his answer.

“Good thinking. ”

This is how I did it in my mercenary days. I got the Quest State. It was also a long-term quest for gold coins on a regular basis.

* * *

The sunset begins to set, but the territory is lively.

Seeing it, Yod Ventes mutters.

“Violent tremors. ”

Tomorrow we return to the Earl. As the last night approaches, Yod takes a walk.

He grumbles and walks around Prawnmund Castle. After that, a escort knight and his acolyte followed closely.

"Why did my father send me here? ’

I know my reputation. And no matter how stupid he is, Earl Ventes is a royal digger, and Baron Chris Fraunmoont is on the same page.

‘You want to collect. ’

If he wanted to maintain a proper relationship, he would have sent his brother.

Sending yourself over meant that you would start a relationship harder than being gentle.

You want to eat the land? ’

No, I don't think so.

“Why did my father send me here? ”

When asked, the escort knight replied.

“You didn't send me here to get some abandoned land. ”

This land is changing rapidly, but it is not a land that Earl Ventes, or his father, would covet.

Then what does my father want? Chris Fraunmoont, his name was already unknown to the nobles in Sercado. Everyone was turning on the lights, wanting to leave him under their command.

"You're not different, are you? ’

If you sent yourself to hear the sound of a wreck, you'd have to put up a fight.

Yod Ventes has finished his thought. He captured the true intentions of Earl Vantes.

Though not so clever, I was quite aware. Yod Ventes clearly knew what he was doing.

‘I could get hurt. ’

The Earl's firstborn is wounded. What could be more worrying than that?

I think I can make you owe me, even at the top, and my father will boil this young vice knight on his own.

“Hey."

As I looked back and opened my mouth, the servant was startled and looked at himself.

“Are you fighting? ”

Yod Ventes is not an idiot, but he couldn't even say he was wise. He chose the simplest and clearest way in his common sense.

“Yes?”

“Have you ever punched? ”

“…… I haven't tried it. ”

“Good. Let's give him a beating. ”

I kicked a servant's incomprehensible butt. Yod glances around as he sees the man he's been hit prowl.

‘That was fast. ’

Previously, I heard it was a ruin with nothing, but before the hot summer came, there were buildings everywhere.

The Lord is strong and clever, and the people of the territory are diligent and sincere.

“It's going to be great. This territory.”

The escort knight said as if he had read his mind.

‘You should have been with me a day or two. ’

They were like friends who were close to each other.

“Am I right?"

Boom!

I saw his acolyte soon to be taken. I rolled the floor, holding my face to make sure I got hit properly.

Yod Ventes approaches.

“Oops.”

Yod pushes the servant rolling the floor with his feet.

“Hey, do you know who you just hit? ”

The man with the fist looks at him and replies. The outfit was different, so I could see it at a glance.

“... Are you a nobleman? ”

Nobles are different from commoners. Yod knew that and has lived with it for ten minutes.

“Huh, isn't this land even up and down! You think you can get away with hitting one of my favorite acolytes? ”

‘Just a commoner. ’

I missed it, but I could hear it.

The man on the other side senses that he is in a difficult situation. His eyes start to look everywhere.

“Cut off this fool's arm. ”

It was unpaid. The escort knight stepped forward and drew his sword. The man was not good enough to dodge the sword of the least knight.

Screaming!

His elbow was cut out by a sharp blade.

“Shhhhh!”

The man's screams resound everywhere.

“Kneel down. ”

Seeing that, Yod smiles and says, The colonists have begun to gather around. They knew the situation and did not make a move. The opposing Pokémon are nobles and commoners themselves.

“What are you doing? ”

Then a woman's voice dug in. The eyes of all the settlers were on it.

* * *

“I appoint Royce Yul Novan and Alice to be my Squire. ”

Shortly after arriving in Fraunmoont territory, Alice becomes a Squire.

There was no such thing as a grand gesture. To be precise, there was no room for that.

I had to build a house every day.

Her mother was running point for a meal for the colonists, and Tequila was busy standing up and meditating if something went wrong.

Most of the mediation involved violence, but there were no complaints from people.

Since then, the streak has set rules that must be observed in the territory.

In a big way, it was the Lord's law. Just as there is a royal law in the palace, there is a similar law in the province.

Since then, there has been no fighting among people.

‘So will I. ’

The user attacks the target by accidentally hurting him like a dog with a streak and soldier. The man who was beaten could only get up after being sick for a week.

Since then, order has been quickly captured.

‘Your talent is melting. ’

The streak was a veteran who had a long experience in the military. He thought he could handle the crowd.

Officially, I was in charge of the ministry of the castle, but I'm short of a hand.

He is busy enough to lose ten bodies.

“Squire must attend to the Master. ”

“I'll do that. ”

Alice has nothing to do with it. She goes to the streak and says, "Stop by."

But even that was taken away.

Lois Yul Novan, who's been trying to get her father killed for years.

He shook his fingers and asked me to do it.

"Do you like serving others that much? ’

He was not very good at taking care of others.

Chris was very busy with his father and how many requests he made to Technologies to maintain order within the territory.

Alice wasn't the only one.

That's why.

“I need to deploy soldiers for security. ”

“I'll do that. ”

The main reason behind the streak's remarks is:

I was not bored with patrolling the interior of the territory for security purposes. I liked walking and enjoyed seeing the changing territory.

“Hey, Alice! ”

Every morning, he was a merchant carrying two carts full of vegetables. He was part of a merchant guild, but his mother liked him for selling at a conscientious price.

“You're late. ”

“Work ended a little late. ”

“Mother, you worry. Go quickly.”

He was a faithful man who lived with his mother.

I was not the only two who became familiar with my face.

So even when the commotion broke out, Alice moved on without hesitation.

“Shhhhh!”

Immediately after hearing the screams, Alice was able to navigate through the crowd and understand the situation.

Although his face was unfamiliar, he was also a sincere man.

“What are you doing? ”

Alice steps forward and lays her hands on her waist without even knowing it. The user sees red blood dripping from the target's blade.
