Frontier Lord Starts Out With a Population of 0

"Lord Diaz! Lord Diaz!

I want you to tell me about Lord Diaz!

I let him hang out with me for a long story. I want him to take a short break, and I laugh bitterly at Eldan's words when me and Arner jumped out when I was invited to go over the bed-shaped carriage with those words so that I could sit back on my bedding.

The Eldans even told me about that deep part of the situation, naturally I should talk to them as much as possible... but the poor decision to even talk about me after Eldan's amazing story really weighs my mouth movement.

"I'd also like to hear about Lord Diaz's recent stories, his stories on the battlefield, and what happened in the King's capital!

Eldan goes on to say things like whether he's noticing my grid like that or not, waving his ears patty and shaking his nose glued and his excitement unstoppable.

Such Eldan's eyes were still shining with the color of anticipation... and when I saw those eyes I gave up that I wouldn't be able to escape this... exhale a small sigh.

I can't make a big deal out of it, but after that, I slowly recollect my previous stories to Camarotts and Eldan's daughters who won't hide their attitude behind Eldan and Eldan that they also want to listen.

Briefly said that being an orphan, then a volunteer, and starting to talk in detail on the battlefield worked quite well because there was no kiri.

Then to meet Arner, how he became a post-war lord... there's no reason for me to talk about ghosts on my own, so I'll hide where I can hide them.

I'll start talking about my life in the meadows afterwards, talk about hunting ground dragons, tell Klaus about the Mayans, and keep a light touch about Senai and Aihan.

The Eldans reacted differently when they heard about me like that.

While I regret that the war story was almost over, I was very excited about the story of defeating the Earth Dragon, and Eldan's daughters showed a special boost in the story of his engagement to Arner.

Eldan repeatedly asked questions in the reunion part with Klaus, and Eldan flatly apologized about the abandoned people in the story of Grandma Maya and the others... everyone on the spot smiled at the story of Senai and Aihan.

"I knew Lord Diaz was the man your mother told me about!

I'm so glad I got along with Lord Diaz. "

I open my mouth with my neck tilted, curious about how Eldan feels after listening to me.

"I was wondering... how did Neha know about me?

I didn't even know the subhuman existed until I met Arner... and naturally I don't remember seeing Neha... "

"The answer lies in Lord Diaz's martial arts!

Mother heard many of Lord Diaz's warrior traditions and learned about Lord Diaz.

From the battlefield... even in Casdex, far from the capital, we all know the story of Lord Diaz's martial arts. "

With that said, Eldan begins to talk about hero Diaz's martial arts tradition in things like gesturing, hand waving, and nasal waving as he cleverly folds his nose and moves to the right and left.

Anything, not just me. The warrior tradition of those active in that war was passed from the battlefield to the king's capital, and it became a theatre in the king's capital.

Because of the war spirit, it seems that those plays were performed every night in order to gather more volunteers.

Diaz, a volunteer from an orphan, boasts an unrivalled strength, sweeping away 10,000 enemies with his favorite battle axe, and protecting 10,000 allies from the fierce blade of the enemy.

Not only does it continue to be effective, but Diaz, a hero who cares about his parents' will, continues to create numerous martial arts traditions on the battlefield that help weakness and frustrate strength. As a good way of life, he embarrasses with his fists the nobles who repeat tyranny on the battlefield, or, if he thinks about it, rescue such nobles from the crisis of their lives... and that's what my theatre was about.

Apparently, my theatre, but the nobles viewed the content of such theatre as problematic, and less than a week after its release, they issued a public suspension order.

But such a suspension order would, on the contrary, lead to the result of arousing people's interest, and then many of my martial arts stories told in the theatre would spread throughout the country from the mouth to the mouth of people... They also came through Casdex territory.

As a slave...... while working as a servant Neha listens to some of those heroic Diaz stories, especially admiring the way his parents lived according to their will as if they were once elephant kings, and how fun Eldan tells me to tell young Eldan to be a fine adult like me ever since.

Hmm...... I see......

I don't remember ever meeting nobles on the battlefield, and naturally I don't remember any conversations about being a remodel... well, even if you're right about my parents' will, most other parts of the martial arts tradition are lies... it's become a story created entirely for theatre.

"Uh... Eldan, I don't remember anything about that nobleman...

Apparently, there's a big separation between "Hero Diaz" and "I" that Eldan and the others know about. "

"Lord Diaz, I didn't think all the martial arts and heroism I had just heard was true.

But they all praised Lord Diaz for all the returning soldiers, the merchants returning to the battlefield, the tutors, and everyone who knew Lord Diaz on the battlefield, which is why I admired Lord Diaz.

And when I actually met with Lord Diaz and talked to him, and listened to him earlier, I figured Lord Diaz was the man I admired, so Lord Diaz is definitely the hero, Lord Diaz!

After my words, I run out of words to return to those words with Eldan's smile that I returned without getting my hair in.

The words and smiles are so powerful that my foolish idea that Eldan may be admiring the phantom is blown away somewhere.

"So Lord Diaz, I want you to be closer to me and us.

We're gonna make a world where we can get along and work hard together to make our territory bigger, and together we can make a world where subhumans and humans can live with a smile on their faces!

That being said, Eldan offers me a hand asking for a handshake with a smile on his face.

I whine in my chest that I'm no match for Eldan, who shows me a vessel bigger than my age, and then... holds the hand offered and shakes his hand forcefully.

Eldan held my hand tight and wrapped it with both hands and shook it back, giving me a full smile even in Eldan's smile today.

Then me and Eldan discussed various matters over a cup of Camarotts brewed tea.

It's about the three daughters in the example, it's about Klaus talking about the successor feud in the King's Capital, it's about me and Arner who showed interest when Eldan did it, it's about Eldan's physical condition, I want to find some free time to meet Neha, and so on.

And the story goes to talk about stockpiling food in each other's territory, and in the middle of that story, I'm told this by Eldan.

"Dear Diaz, I think it's hard not to have more reserves of preserved food or something, but if anything happens, I'm going to run out of food soon and it's going to be a big deal.

Besides, I don't think we should only increase the number of residents, but also keep food production on the territory...

Winter seems to be far away and close, but we have to be ready now. "

Huh? That? Do you?

There's quite a bit of variety and there's plenty of stiff and I think it's enough...?

... right, not enough at all?

All right... then we have to act with food in mind in the future.

In the meantime...... why don't you plow the meadows and even make them in the fields?

Look, before the war, I've been helping out with scattered farming, one or two fields, making them look perfect!
