Fun Territory Defense of the Easy-Going Lord ~The Nameless Village Is Made Into the Strongest Fortified City by Production Magic~
[A different perspective] Shall we go flashy?
After a month and a half of journeys, I took a long trip to the King's Capital.
A family of knights from generation to generation, so he was originally born in Wangdu. But as soon as I knew the suitability of four-element magic, I was invited, and I was handed over to Count Ferdinut territory, which was in the best conditions.
I've been out of the house for eight years. I was treated so badly that I wanted to die, studied as I shredded my sleep, and I became a platoon leader.
The first battle is the defeat of the Bandits. I burned down most of the bandits there.
Acknowledging its effects, he became a troop leader at only sixteen years of age. In Count Ferdinut territory, each deputy or subordinate territory must organize a knighthood, and in times of need, crush anything hostile under the Knights of the Count.
I belonged to the Knights of the Count.
Afterwards, after cutting through two or three battles and citing military merit, he entered the battle against that kingdom of Yellinetta, and the platoon I led did its best.
As a result, I became a nobleman.
Six years later, he became a Viscount and became a Viscount again, so his Majesty has seen him twice before in the Imperial Castle.
At that time, His Majesty was very pleased with my work and told me that if I were to join the Kingdom's largest and strongest Kingsguard Knights, I would give them a mouthfeel.
The feeling at that time was that His Majesty's preference weighed heavily on force.
So first, with one hand the symbol of the martial arts in the name of the material of the dragon, I decided to wish to see His Majesty.
I was told that it would be the next day in the shortest time, but when I told him that I had crusaded the Green Forest Dragon, the sight came true just two hours later. Someone was turned the next day, but I can't help it all.
"Come here."
That's what the knight says and walks forward. I'm keeping my men and Rango waiting outside, but the city will be making a scene already.
With that in mind, one laughed, wasting time under the guidance of the knight, walking down the luxurious hallway to the sight.
It's both a misrill and a gold and silver open door that you wouldn't even hesitate to touch. While the beauty of the decoration is enhanced, the door itself is large and powerful due to the high ceiling.
"Is there a problem with the way you look at it?"
"No, it's the third time."
Answering that, the knight pulled his jaw shallow and put his hand on the door.
"Excuse me. Let's take a look."
When the knight says so, he gently knocks on the door with his fist. Then the door opened with a heavy noise from the inside.
High ceilings, regular lined columns and knights. Huge chandelier and demon ore lamp. The floor is covered with thick Zhu demon tiger (Red Evil Tiger) fur.
If it were about the royal nobility of a small country, it would atrophy just by stepping in between these sights.
Stepping on the fur of a giant tiger, which is said to be comparable to a dragon, I move on between glances. It feels good to walk collecting the sights of the knights together, but it is not funny to be knelt fifty meters away to His Majesty.
Dino en Zuola Berlinate, a magnificent king who treads back on dragon bones and fangs and a large chair with misriles and Zhu demon tigers. This man, who became king in sixteen years, achieved great military reform in just twenty years, with far more powerful force than in his predecessors.
That's the hiring of officers focused on merit. Commanders have no choice but to use nobles' blood families to prevent betrayal and normalize the chain of command.
Then, all officers below the rank of deputy shall be fierce warriors. That was the military reform His Majesty had in mind.
This reform was to use time and effort and shed a lot of blood.
Anyway, until now, if you were born in a noble house, the Knights' deputy, the officers, were normal. That's why Bonkla had led the soldiers in incompetence.
However, thanks to this reform, many noble sons will lose their jobs. It also meant that there was so much incompetence, but the rebellion of the nobles was strong.
In doing so, His Majesty secretly sorted out houses to be reused in the future and houses to shrink, and cooperative and martial arts-specific houses leapt at once.
At that time it was the Marquis Fertio family that made the count. Though apparently martial arts in a great battle, the real story was a duke thinking about the future.
Conversely, the Count Ferdinut family, which knew that the two parents were to be unloaded from the cadets and did nothing, was not demoted, but in the form of a shredding of territory.
So the Count petitioned me to reuse me, who was just a knight, and to give him the title, in order to secure his own place at all.
His Majesty greatly likes this petition, and I shall scold it to the Viscount at an unusual speed.
To think of this, I would say that His Majesty tends to adore the powerful who himself gave the title.
I therefore advanced to Your Majesty.
"Thank you very much for your time. Quickly, but this time I wanted someone to give me a title, and I asked."
I would have received a word or two of greeting and His Majesty's words, and then I would talk about what I saw. But I dared to get straight to the point.
Kingsguard knights and court magicians look rugged at it, and the old prime minister standing by His Majesty raises one eyebrow funny.
And His Majesty leaned his neck wonderfully.
"... after all, I thought I had set up a new martial arts and petitioned my own lord, but wanted others to be given the title,?
His Majesty listens back like that in a low voice. Obviously not the least ridden thing ever. Perhaps you are wary that I have moved out of interest in power and status.
Before I could answer, the Chancellor pinched his mouth. It would not have been possible to pinch his mouth before answering His Majesty's question, but His Majesty and the Prime Minister, who is old knowledge, were famous for their unorthodox character.
"... I can't see the face of the one to give?
The Chancellor said that. I smile at it and I open my mouth.
"The one is a lord who guards the edge of the kingdom. We protect the surrounding villages where we can't even send deputies, so we couldn't make it to this king's capital."
When I told him so, His Majesty frowned.
"... of the border, the village? Why do you suppose the lord of the land to be a nobleman?"
"It's because of so much merit and even because of its charming future."
Immediately, the Kingsguard knight made a slight noise. The Chancellor puts his hand on his chin and looks at His Majesty.
His Majesty just nodded quietly and opened his mouth.
"... well. If you would recommend it, it would be a story you can expect. But how did the man establish martial arts in a border village where neither knights nor guards could be satisfactorily deployed? I got interested, but more questions remain."
To His Majesty's question, I turn away my grin and look straight back into His Majesty's eyes and answer.
It's a dragon crusade.
The moment I told him so, the place became a noisy one that I didn't think I was looking at. No, a bigger upset would have spread elsewhere.
The Chancellor also slightly opens his eyes and opens his mouth.
"Oh, my God, the dragon crusade...... if that's true, it sure is brilliant. Is it true that the lord of the neighbouring village and the four-element magician who grew up in that village?
To the words, shake your neck left and right.
"No. The person is a magical aptitude of a supposedly unusable production system, one who was cold-handed out of the house and expelled. But it keeps working like an eye opener."
"Does such a person take the dragon...?
As the Chancellor leaned his neck, His Majesty, as he was in a hurry, rose from his back and opened his mouth.
"Who's that?"
"Van Nay Fertio, son of the Marquis Fertio. I'm a hero of the Dragon Crusade, not even ten years old."
And all who were in the midst of sight breathed into my words.
