I’m the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

The space port was in a hurry as the Capital Star returned to the Banff family's home star.

Rumors are spreading that the Banfields have been assigned to the border with the Overlord Kingdom, and the Banfields are actually transitioning to a wartime regime.

When I arrived at the port, I was greeted by Klaus, who had entrusted me with the planet.

Liam-sama, we are preparing to step out as instructed.

If you keep walking, Klaus will follow me diagonally.

The Crown Prince is in trouble, too.

Klaus listened to the crown prince with dislike.

I can't refuse because I'm so desperate, but are you really going to fight against an opponent of the conquest of the kingdom?

A kingdom that loves to struggle sometimes charges in disregard of the damage done to its own forces.

The Empire's nobles are reluctant to fight, as fighting is bound to do more damage.

I've given orders to fight with all my might.

I didn't think about preserving my fighting power.

I'll hit the kingdom with all my might.

Dissatisfied?

Klaus looked at him with an indescribable expression on his face.

“I think it's best to fortify important strongholds and not compete with the Reigning Kingdom as much as possible.”

Klaus was right to think of nothing but defending himself.

But why should I fight for the Empire?

An evil lord is a man who seeks his own gain.

"This is my war."I decided to do everything I could to help me.Klaus, you have to be serious. "

I'll do my best.

It's my personal opinion that you should be more greedy.

Highly capable, but weakly assertive - no, Klaus is less inclined to pursue his own interests.

My right arm is dependable and perfect, but I'm too serious as a villainous lord's subordinate.

I might say loyal, but I prefer to be a little more greedy.

I understand that it's a luxury concern, but I want you to be a little more playful.

Well, how great is the Reigning Kingdom?

◇

It's too harsh this time!

Brian was furious when he came back to the Mansion.

I was outraged by Cleo's betrayal, and I couldn't let it happen again.

"Calm down. You're too old to be angry."

"Can you stay calm!"Liam should be angry here too! "

It's true that Cleo's orders are annoying, but this time it's a favorable development for me.

― ― I was able to make impressive contact with the Reigning Kingdom.

There's a purpose to it, but I don't think I can explain it to Brian.

“Not necessary”

By the way, Selina, standing next to Brian, had a serious gaze on me.A gaze that explores something sharp.

Master Liam, are you really going to fight the Reigning Kingdom?

"Of course. What are you going to do with your hands?"

"Is it because of loyalty to the Empire?"

"Loyalty?"

Selina's questions were about to erupt.

Selina doesn't understand what it means to want loyalty from me.

"Don't make me laugh, this world is all about the results."Loyalty is just the result of his actions until his death.― ― Well, later life will tell you that if I died fighting the Reigning Kingdom, I would have shown loyalty.

I don't see any value in loyalty myself.

The only people I believe are those who died without betraying me.

Well then--

Selina's gaze narrowed to my answer, but Brian's screaming blocked her next words.

"Don't say it's not your fault!Liam is the master of the Banff family and the star of hope for all our citizens!It's because of Liam's presence in our house!If you die of it lightly, please be more aware of it! "

"Oh, oh"

Brian's enthusiasm pushed him to reply vaguely.

My eyes are bleeding and I'm scared.If you get so high, your veins will be cut and you will fall.

◇

After Brian's sermon, Rosetta waited for him in the bedroom.

Good job.

"It sucks. Brian's bastard, you've been preaching to me for an hour, or maybe you don't even know it."If it wasn't him, I'd have made it by hand. "

Sitting on the bed, Rosetta sits next to her.

Is the war against the Overlord all right?I heard that the battle force is up there.

Anxious Rosetta grabbed my hand and grabbed it back with a little force.

He must be worried, too.

"We will send out a fleet of 600,000 in the first battle."

I couldn't say everything was elite, but if I had just a few of them, I had them all.

"I've heard that the Reigning Kingdom is a very terrifying country."

"Terrible? Is there any country in this world that is not terrible?"What do you think the Empire has done so far?From my point of view, the people of the Reigning Kingdom seem to be honest with their emphasis on force. "

The Empire is more terrifying than the Overlord.

That's because the real enemy the Conductor was talking about - that's the Empress of the Empire, Bagrada.

The Conductor advised me to be my enemy.

It wasn't the kingdom that we should be careful of, it was the empire itself.

Rosetta leaned down sadly.

"Your Highness Cleo has changed."He used to seem kind to me. "

"I was just playing the good guy because I was weak."

"Maybe so."- But I miss you so much. Doesn't Darling think anything of it? "

“I don't think so. I didn't believe it from the beginning.”

If you were really kind, you wouldn't be sinister to your real sister, who kept protecting her side.

"- I'm leaving tomorrow. I'll leave the realm to you.I just want to keep it that way. "

When can we go back this time?

"I don't know. More than that, I won't be able to get in touch with you for a while."I'll leave the castle in the Mansion, so if you have any trouble, you can count on it. "

Yes.

◇

Protecting borders is complicated.

In the first place, the universe is vast. It's too vast.

It is basically a defense of the planet it is based on and of the quadrant suitable for warp.

There are two types of warp.

There are two types of warp: long-range warp traveling from a location suitable for warp, using a dedicated gate, and short-range warp traveling by spacecraft alone.

The benefit of long-range warp is that you can quickly travel to a specific location.However, it cannot be used without a gate, and there is a limited number of places suitable for warping.

The benefit of short-range warp is that you can do it without using a gate.However, it travels a short distance and consumes a lot of energy from spaceships.If you fail, it will lead to a serious accident.

In the meantime, short-range warp is dominating the war to shut down or destroy the gate.

You rarely stumble upon enemies, and large-scale wars become battles.

It is unclear where they are going to attack, so the Defender will deploy their forces to the critical strongholds.

Basically, we don't disperse our forces, but we can't protect them if we don't disperse them.

That's why we need to disperse hundreds of thousands of fleets.

Planet Augur.

When I arrived on the planet that the Banfields once defended, it was the first time in a long time that I had visited a space port.

How is Marion?

When I think of my junior officials, Ulysses, who had been following me, looked stunned.

"Do you have time to play?"The Dispatch Force Commanders will be gathered soon.We don't have much time until the meeting. "

"I'm curious about what happens to the planet I took care of."I want to see it with my own eyes. "

I used to send Tier and Klaus to develop it.

Augur has developed a lot.

With so many habitable planets in the countryside, Augur looks urban.

In the sense of a previous life, is it a small regional city?

I didn't go to the space port with such cruelty to see Augur with my own eyes.

Looking at Ulysses and the Space Harbor souvenir shop in their personal clothes, the badly-patterned soldiers approach us.

The threesome ignored me and approached Ulysses.

"Onee-san, you're beautiful. Would you like to have a cup of tea with us?"

We're soldiers of the Banfields.

Looks like the three of you in my uniform came to the spaceport on vacation.

I don't know which ship it belongs to, but it seems rather trivial.

Ulysses turns his back and says with a determined attitude.

I refuse.

Then, the three turned into a grumpy face.

"--Hey, don't get on your feet."We're soldiers of the Banfields.I won't tolerate your licked attitude. "

"Our lord is an invincible Liam."You don't seem to know what happens when you're hostile, do you? ”

"Leave your boyfriend alone and play with us."

He gave me the name of the Banfields, and he used my name to spread his arrogance.

-They must be from a planet we've recently acquired, atmospherically.

The servicemen of the other house have incorporated it into the Banfield family when they acquire the planet.

I should be doing reeducation, but at any rate, I don't have much practice.

I'm glad I can confirm it with my own eyes.

I thought I'd kill you for a second, but there must be a lot of these guys.Killing them won't solve anything.

I decided to leave with Ulysses.

"Oh boyfriend!? You look like a lover after all ~ No, I'm in trouble ~"

--I was mistaken for my boyfriend, and for some reason my face turned red.

The three soldiers who called out to me turned a sharp gaze on me, jealous.

"You're a real shame, too." Let's go. "

Please wait!

The soldiers reached out to me as I tried to pull Ulysses' hand and get out of here.

"Hey, wait!"

-Don 't touch me.

"Huh!?"

If you stroke lightly, the servicemen will be frightened and frightened.

When I ignored them and tried to bring Ulysses back, the hostile Banfield servicemen stood out in the space port.

- It's not that hard.

General Flagship Argos - Super-Scale Battleships featured General Classes participating in the conference in stereoscopic format.

It was Klaus who was supposed to take care of it.

"House Banfield's fleet is six hundred thousand.It's a fleet sent by the Empire. "

Our knights and generals are unhappy with the fleet sent by the Empire.

The generals and knights of the dispatch group who participated in the meeting looked uncomfortable even though it was stereoscopic.

That should be the case.

I'm laughing at the number of fleets I've been sent to.

"That's a lot of stuff."All of them are old-fashioned and outdated ships and mobile knights.The rest of the regular fleet hasn't been replenished or repaired. "

The number is one million and two hundred thousand ships.

It would be reliable if I asked only a few questions, but the contents were the problem.

One of the Empire's problems is the proliferation of patrol fleets.

With minimal resupply and maintenance, they're just a fleet patrolling the empty quadrant.

The number ranges from a few to several hundred.

Perhaps the Imperials don't know exactly how many of them?

The peripheral aristocrats have not lost to such a patrol fleet.

They're not powerful aristocrats, they're just people who live on the edge.

Hundreds of old-fashioned ships.

We've been sent here to an exhausted regular fleet.

Doesn't the Empire want to wipe out the Empire by hitting us?

Jokingly, the knights and generals who participated in the meeting have a bitter face.

However, there is no one in this room who would complain to me, the Chief Executive - the Commander-in-Chief.

He wasn't supposed to be here.

"Does the Duke think this battle is a defeat?"

An elderly man who feels like a serious general is looking down on me.

A man with a temper looks more human than any of my men have ever seen standing in a spaceport.

That man was one of the regular fleet commanders dispatched multiple times.

"Are you going to win?"

When asked, the opponent looks at me seriously.

The nobles, knights, and generals sent by the Empire are sharpened.

Of course.

Ask the Commander who is going to win what plan he is planning.

"Then tell me what I can do to win."

The Commander projects stereoscopic footage into the conference room.

“Disperse allies on major planets and resist attacks from the Overlord.”

Apparently, we will split a fleet of 1.8 million ships into three parts to protect an important stronghold.

Klaus was thinking of a plan.

I applaud.

"Surely this is the only way."- If you just want to protect it, then so be it. "

I declare myself in a troubled meeting room.

"I'm not going to go around defending."― ― ― We will invade the Reigning Kingdom.

◇

After the meeting.

There was a break, and the next meeting was with the Banff family only.

Klaus continues to be the host.

"The First Army had 60,000 ships, including Liam's SS."The Second Army-- 60,000 ships that I lead.The Third Army consisted of 30,000 ships belonging to Lord Cristiana.The Fourth Army is 10,000 of Lord Marie's ships. The Fifth Army-- "

This time, 600,000 vessels have been sent by the Banffs.

Successive formations have been announced, but it looks like I don't even remember their names since the 5th Army.

Knight, General - the talent of both is invaluable.

Those whose names are called are undoubtedly excellent.

However, there were not many people like Klaus the Leading Knight who could make a name for themselves.

This is the problem.

Some of them outperformed Klaus by their abilities alone, but it was difficult to say whether they would produce results.

When Klaus announces the formation, the younger disciples who were standing next to me are unhappy.

Both of them were dressed in ceremonial knightly clothes, but Feng Hua seemed restless.

“It would be over if we only communicated the results of this.Do we have to get together and announce it?Besides, these clothes aren't cute either. "

I wasn't dissatisfied with my outfit, but I couldn't forgive him for bringing me to the battlefield.

"It's difficult to be separated from the Master and Anhui."Ah, but I think I like these clothes.No matter what I wear, it looks like a cosplay and I like it. "

Cosplay and nothing. They're being treated like colonels in the Banfield army.

If it were true, I would have treated it as a Commodore, but Klaus stopped me from doing it.

It was Master's request that I bring these two disgruntled people to the battlefield.

"I was worried about you guys playing, and my master came to ask me to take you." Reflect for a moment. "

Do you both remember a lot of things? I turned my face away and replied.

"Okay, I got it."

Reflect ~ ~ ~ ~

It doesn't look like they're both reflecting on each other.

"This is also part of my training."I've brought your Mobile Knights too, so I'm looking forward to them.Don't get your name dirty. "

Fake Avid prepared by Cleo and Calvin.

The three planes have been refurbished for my younger sisters and disciples, and for Ellen, who is not here.

Feng Hua showed interest in the battlefield.

"There are strong ones, aren't there?I prefer the flesh, but I'll do it because Mobile Knights are interesting. "

Tsubaki was passionate about spreading his name.

Fine. I'll tell you it's not just the brothers and sisters.

My trusty younger sisters and disciples.

If you want to prepare opportunities for success, the announcement of the production is over.

Klaus turned to me and asked me to speak.

Standing up from a chair, it illuminates the spotlight in a dimly lit room.

"There are many people here who are dissatisfied with the fight against the Reigning Kingdom."Why would we go out there on purpose?That's what you're thinking. "

It's good to be sent to defend the border with the Overlord Kingdom, but many people face explicit harassment only from the Banff family.

I take such harassment seriously--I can't be that way.

"I'll tell you that there are many of you who have misunderstood."I have no intention of fighting for the Empire in the first place. "

Klaus shouted as he began to whisper.

"Liam is in the middle of a statement."Be discreet with your private language. "

Wait for me to calm down, and then I'll tell you the rest.

"Do you want me to fight for the protection of the Empire?I have not been interested in such a thing from the beginning.It's the star of the conquest. "

Unaware to defend from the beginning, I was going to challenge the opponent of the conquest.

If you haven't heard anything, it's funny that even Klaus is surprised.

◇

A while after Liam left.

In the Mansion of the Banff family, there was a Tenjo figure on the side of Rosetta, who ruled the territory.

Tenjo, who was assisting the government, noticed that Rosetta's physical condition had changed.

Master Rosetta, if you're not feeling well, you should rest.

"It's all right, darling, I'll let you do this!"

Seeing Rosetta holding her mouth in her hand, the castle immediately rushed over and started scanning.

And I'll arrange for a doctor right away.

Put your left hand on the ear and explain the situation to the communication partner.

"Please arrange for a doctor immediately."Yes, yes, Mr. Rosetta. "

As soon as he knew who the patient was, the office door opened and the doctors and nurses who were waiting for him entered.

The Female Knights surrounded Rosetta and quickly entered the alert.

When the doctor starts seeing Rosetta, Brian runs out of breath a little late.

Is Master Rosetta safe?

"Men are off-limits."

Bryan takes care of Rosetta while being blocked by the female knights.

Is Master Rosetta all right?! If Liam isn't here and there's anything I can do for you--

The doctor then ignores the noisy Brian and talks to the nurses.

"Something unusual now."

In view of Liam's situation, I may have no choice.

Hearing the conversation between the doctor and the nurse, Brian scrapes his neck.

How did you get Liam's name there?

Seeing Brian anxious and hopeless, Tenjo got up and took him out of the room.

When the two of them enter the hallway, the area around Rosetta becomes noisy.

While listening to the situation in the hallway, Tengu was holding his left hand to his left ear.

--No, sir, I can't reach you due to a communication problem.

Causes all manner of communication disruptions on the battlefield.

In other words, it was evidence that the battle against the Overlord Kingdom was intensifying.

"Even though it's only a few months, it's already that much!? Is Liam, who protects the border, safe?"

If we can't get in touch with General Liam, who is guarding the border, it would be a very dangerous situation.

The castle narrowed its eyes.

"Is the invasion of the Overlord Kingdom more intense than expected?"The second team should start early. "

Brian collapses from his knee.

Rosetta-sama, Liam-sama, what's the dangerous situation?

As Brian grieved, the castle looked up at the ceiling.

"We have to notify Milord as soon as possible."
