The day after the signing of peace with the Empire, Georg held an urgent assembly.

Although I was scolded as expected, I took the time to explain the situation thoroughly and managed to gain an understanding. Although the effort to do so probably exceeded the talks with Lyudmila.

"So it's finally a fight..."

"Oh, as for Dinant, I'm not going to actively evade the fight either"

"My lord, the battlefield is still, even if you think it's inside the Great Forest?

"I don't mind. But only if you've broken into the city's safety zone. If they can safely break through the infested areas of demons and carnivores."

"So there's a chance it won't be a fight unexpectedly?

"Maybe there is. Anyway, there's a good chance that the demons and beasts that have retreated from around this city are moving outside the Great Forest. I can't break through that easy. But what the Empire says is that Dinants are also gathering soldiers, we shouldn't be optimistic."

"But you've been failing so far, haven't you?

"That would also be a big reason to bring in a large number of people and feet for pioneering, marching while protecting their non-combatants. This time, by contrast, the configuration is for combat personnel only. No, there will be about heavy units carrying troops and materials, but there will nevertheless be trained military personnel out there"

"I see...... then can we Kingsguard maintain our usual sentry route?

"Oh, more than that, fighting on the outside is too likely to be damaging here as well. It is not something that can be allowed. That said, I've never been able to detect enemies faster, so I'll increase the frequency, allow routes to come off as appropriate if I detect suspicious movements. This battle, it changes dramatically depending on how quickly the Kingsguard perceives the enemy. You know, I might go far, far away, but I can't cover all of this forest by myself, and I can't do it that often."

"Ha, I will risk my life to fight the enemy."

"Don't be so uptight. If you can't make it to the battlefield, it hurts more. In the present situation, which must be compensated for by a small number in quality, you are not allowed to leave the Kingsguard, remember that."

"Ha!

"Then, this time, if it extends to the battle with the soldiers of the Dinant, it shall surely be annihilated, and no one shall be left alive to return. If there is a leak, that person will surely tell the country of our existence. In that case, it is imperative that more soldiers strike again. Also, the Church will take some action. In that case, the raid could continue shortly after we have a decent system in place."

annihilation. To this word, some breathe.

The first actual battle, and against soldiers several or dozen times our own, tells us not to just win, but to destroy them. Ordinarily, it's an impossible order, but in Gardina, it's too likely to be a bigger problem later.

"But if we don't return a single soldier for extermination, won't we still come to investigate with more soldiers?

"I guess that is. But the time it takes for the soldier to come home alive and tell the facts and start getting ready immediately changes dramatically. In the meantime, we must do what we can to embrace, educate and restructure the subpeople from the Empire."

"... will be a busy day like never before."

"Wow... I don't want to imagine"

"But if we do that, Gardina's future is at stake."

"That's the thing. I don't know how many sub-people the Empire will gather, but I expect a corresponding number more than I have gathered as a nation, not as an individual as before. And if the deal starts through peace, we can also hope for population growth at a steady frequency. It will be harder than ever, but on the contrary, if we survive this, Gardina will be able to empower us as a nation at once."

Georg's words change the same look he had on the spot.

The only subhuman country, its dreams, has finally come to be feasible. It would be useless to stand in colour.

"At first it's just under 60 people. No, if you put it right, it all started with me and Ferris."

Suddenly, with a look of nostalgia for the past, Georg began to speak.

"There was nothing here. The house, the fields, the residents... but how about now? From the abundance of lakes is a powerful voice, from the city is the hustle and noise of a lively shopping district, the sound of striking iron, the hissing of the animals, and…"

So, once I looked over at everyone.

"Thus there is a family who can exchange words, here"

After saying so much, Georg adds a lofty gesture and raises his voice.

"Don't you think that you want to defend this place, that you want to be richer, and that you want to build a free nation that will never be bound by any other nation, race, or common sense?

It's been a long time since I've spoken. And the words do shine in the eyes of those who meet here.

"Because they are beasts, because they are elves, because they are dwarves, for such lopsided reasons, those who give up to be happy, those who suffer from so-called persecution and violence, every day, those who weep, pursue happiness, live in health, without fear of violence, laughing and laughing. That's what the dream is about to finally come true... a little more, a little more..."

The figure, who grips his fist in front of his chest and whines to speak to himself, is more like just one man chasing his dreams than a noble dragnil.

"Come on, now. Soon, to the common sense of the world, to rules made for human convenience, selling fights from the bottom of the line. And let's win. What is the value of human decided rules, common sense? This is our country. The rules, the common sense, we build. And I'll show the world that. Let us engrave the world with our presence, our living proof, our strength!!

Parliamentary participants responded with pneumonia to a voice similar to Georg's roar.

Soon, a soldier of dinants wanted to approach Gardina.
