I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~

Episode 142 ~ It is common for two people to be separated by three people ~

"Faction...?"

"That's right. If you don't properly determine where you stand, you'll be turned into an old fox who uses his hands."

Count Dolton told me about the power relationship between the nobles in the kingdom. It's only natural in the aristocratic world that a faction can be formed when three people come together. Japanese deputies are enough to create even more individual-centric factions among the big factions, the political parties. Perhaps the aristocrats in this country are doing similar things.

"There are three main factions in the kingdom. One is" royalty ", which is to pull the country around the royalty with the power of the center. On the contrary, the" aristocracy "is trying to expand the authority of local lords. The rest is not on either side, and there are" neutrals "on either side. This neutral has the most momentum right now, but it's the aristocrats who have the momentum."

"Is that because... you inherited the throne?

"Ahhn, that's right. I knew you were smart. I can't wait to talk to you."

The current king was not supposed to succeed to the throne. Of course, there is no political support base. A nobleman who was originally a royalist would not be able to actively support him until he was able to identify him personally.

In addition, when Prince Stupid (Brandon) staged the coup, a small number of nobles who had been packed in the royal castle were killed. It must have been in order to make it easier for the coup regime to run out of power. Many of the nobles killed were royalists because they were packed in the royal castle. It is self-evident that the weaker one faction, the stronger the rest. So the aristocracy is getting stronger? The Brain King is struggling too.

"So today's topic is soliciting your faction?

"Nh, it's close, but it's a little different. Please don't go to another faction."

"What do you mean?

"Beat is supposed to be Dan's neighbor, right? Atashi and Dan-chan are royalty, and Beat is royalty!"

That's the first time I've heard of it. It seems that I belonged to the Royalists somehow. A neighbor is a subordinate nobleman under protection. Dan-chan means the village chief.

I see, because I am thought to be the son of the village chief, I am regarded as belonging to the same royalty as the village chief. Well, that's not a mistake. The village chief is more trustworthy than any other nobleman you don't know. The village chief and the king are strong enemies, so the village chief is royal, so am I royal? Convinced.

"The Countess is royalist, isn't he? Aren't you a nobleman, even though you're a local lord?

"That's right. But if it's really a border territory, we can't do it without support from the center. Atashi and Dan-chan are the lords of the border."

Hmm, wouldn't you leave without development assistance? It's a story from anywhere in the world.

There are monsters and wars in this world. If a local lord in a harsh environment wants to maintain his territory while maintaining his independence, he can only rely on the state. Does that mean that the aristocrats have some kind of safe and prosperous territory? I envy you.

"I see. But I still don't have much power, Baron Quasi. Aren't you a little quick to talk like that?

"Ufufu. You don't know what you're worth. Noble society is starting to move around you and Dan-chan."

What do you mean? Focus on me and the mayor? Why are the nobles here?

I heard that the defeat of the Jarkin army near the city of Chito began earlier. The village chief was reassessed with his vibrant handiwork as "The Stream Stone is the Whirlwind Dantes", and I was noticed by the nobles because I had a powerful inherent magic to help the village chief. I fought Big Joe, bandits and pirates in Dolton, and in Gizan I exposed traitors lurking in the Knights. Along with the village chief, it seems to be a topic of discussion as one of the kingdom's most powerful fighters. Really!? When!?

The royalists breathed back from the activities of me and the village chief, but it is the aristocrats who are not happy about it. They're losing their say in the royal castle.

Ah, that's why you made the village chief a Vicomte and me a Baron, that king! If a Royalist village chief becomes a Territorial Vicomte, I will automatically become a Royalist. If a powerful wizard joins the Royalty, he can kill the nobility momentum. I would have been a Baron myself eventually, but I took care of myself by reciting it with royalty! If that's how you think about narratives, that king is surprisingly dark! It was just a brain muscle!

I may have contacts with the aristocrats. He is still a child and a quasi-bar, so there may be people trying to threaten to earn money and draw him into the aristocracy. The warning that the Royal Earl came out was the truth of the call.

The village chief didn't say anything about the area. Wasn't it about Jasmine's sister, or did you trust me?... maybe because you're giving up on me.

"I don't want Beat to work in Dolton forever. Let's continue to get along.

Wink flew from the Count to hear the sound of the effect: "Bachi!"

I don't mind being an adventurer, but I don't care about the sotch. No, seriously. Seriously.
