"… so after a fierce battle, it is up to our leadership to rush to extinction, to take those who fought and survived to the end, and to ask them to reclaim their territory by the national army!
An unscheduled emergency report had been made during the royal palace's visit. The rapporteur is Baron Alleymen, lord of the baron territory bordering the Alburn Empire. Behind it, his brother, an officer of the leadership, and two of his splinter muscles refrain.
According to the report, the barons and ministers did a great job of protecting the territory with the octagonal six-arm (Hachimenropi).
And the look on the face of the king who received the report was subtle.
Surprised or not, angry or not, impressed or not, panicked or not......
Baron Arraymen looking bewildered by the King's reaction, which was completely different from what he had expected.
"Heh, Your Majesty, the..."
When a baron finally spoke to a king who couldn't stand anything.
"So the leadership is wiped out, the baron's territory is lost, is that it?
That's what the king asked with his faceless face.
"Yes! I would like to receive another territory as a reward for fighting for my life to protect my country if the National Army does not return the territory immediately…"
It's a glaring wish, but it wasn't without precedent like that.
It is not so uncommon for a so-called territorial change, also known as a national change, to be transferred to a better territory by a duke or someone who has achieved great merit even if it does not lead to a duke.
But few refused to make it good to leave the territory and the people they had defended for their ancestors, and refused to transfer it as a reward...
However, it is, of course, impossible to dismiss a transfer to a territory with more adverse conditions as punishment.
And some of them included giving vacant territory to the king's direct jurisdiction and deputies to those who had lost their cited territories, who had fought the invading armies of the enemy countries with all their dying power.
... but that was limited to those who fought extra hard and showed martial arts, and was rarely...
"Ho ho... So now Baron Arraymen's territory doesn't exist anymore, and the leadership is the same again, so..."
To the royal grunt, whose same words were repeated earlier, the Baron exhaled a breath of relief, thinking that His Majesty had merely been frozen for a very short time of surprise. But......
"Now, then, that territory that exists in our country is not the territory of the baron, nor are the soldiers who defend it, the baron's leadership.
Yeah, I got it. Then Baron Arraymen's territory is lost and extinguished from our country. With that, I relieve Baron Arraymen of his duties as lord.
And on behalf of the consummated army of the realm, we shall lead our own army to rid ourselves of the invading army and give that new territory to the young nobles who brought their territory to our country.... Sure, you said Kelvin or something?
"Ha, Kelvin von Bailiam, five men in the Baron Bailiam family"
From the Prime Minister, who refrained beside him, the word of affirmation was returned.
"Behold! That's..."
Baron Arraymen, who stunnedly opened his eyes and hastily tried to elucidate, but when you think about it, there was no end to the elucidation.
With his own mouth, he clearly reported to the king that he had fought his enemies to the end, and that his army had been wiped out, so if he now made the claim that his army was the leader of his own territory or that it was they who repelled his enemies, he would have tried to deceive the king by making false reports. And after the battlefield without seeing the outcome of the battle...
It is not a treason, but an escape before the enemy.
default of duty as lords, and as nobles, and false reports.
It is a felony during a felony, such as making false reports to the King on serious matters relating to military operations. Instead of tearing down your house, the decapitation sentence will not be spared, along with those involved.
So it was a literal 'suicidal act' to deny the word, even though the king said he was deliberately misrepresenting it because of his love.
"Ugh..., ah..."
With his mouth full, the king told Baron Arraymen, who could only leak a roar, in a cold voice.
"You fool. News has arrived very early, from Kelvin, the new American officer who was pushed to lead the army. You forced underage cadets into cadets, pushed everything and fled before the battle began, left in a carriage full of golden-eyed objects, and everything else. Though the loaded money was heavy and would have arrived so late!
Yeah, well, they took out not only private property, but all the operating expenses of the territory, etc. It was in the announcement to return it...
All operating expenses of the territory shall, of course, be confiscated as well as all private property, to be added to the budget for the reconstruction of the rough territory in battle. And naturally... "
The king pronounced, staring at Baron Arraymen.
"Deprivation of all the aristocracy of the clan, such as the Baron Arraymen family, and their divisions. The main house shall deport persons up to the third degree of kinship of the Lord from the country.
There is no need for nobility in our country to abandon its inhabitants and flee only ourselves. You can go anywhere, even to the Empire! I am complaining about the fact that it is supposed to be a beheading sentence as a sign of gratitude to your ancestors who have still protected the small territory facing the border. And no more warmth, ever. If you are dissatisfied, give the judgment that should exist.
... Anything you want to say?
The fate of an untouched former nobleman who was stripped of his aristocracy and chased after his country.
But compared to the beheading sentence, it was certainly so warm that it seemed to be the mercy of the goddess.
So Baron Alleymen only lay flat in silence......
And after Baron Alleymen's line left.
"But I didn't expect that name to come up here..."
"Yes, I never thought that now would be the time to ask the name of A. A. After all, the goddess helps you for the home country of the girl you are in charge of..."
To the words of the Chancellor, the King snorts loudly.
"Uhm. The report says, Adele von Askham…, saved by the code name 'A A', but perhaps it is the work of the goddess who took over the consciousness of 'A A' and manipulated her body… So why does the image of the devil, not the goddess, come to mind in the head of the goddess?
"Rest assured, Your Grace. I am the same…"
I have no idea where the peace of mind is, but to the prime minister's follow-up, the king is a little relieved.
"Um, still is! Was Noon normal!
... But I didn't know you were in the country... Oh, no, is it possible that it's just off the border there, I was in another country, but I'm back in my home country? But either way... "
"Yes, the goddess dwells in Yi Dynasty, your girl 'A A' is in our country again!!
"Fu..."
"Hehe..."
"" Ha-ha-ha!
When I walked away from Kelvin's front, I forgot to stop talking about myself because I was concentrating on thinking about the cool decision dialogue.
... was fatally wounded.
But thanks to some mistakes made by the kings, it seemed that they managed to spare instant death...
Baron Bailiam, Kelvin's father, had read the letter handed to him by an apostle from the royal palace with a faceless face.
"... I understand. Please wait..."
Yes, it is customary for an apostle who has brought this kind of news to have some kind of handicraft, and naturally this apostle would expect that too.
However, because the baron was faceless, he wondered whether he was upset because it was about the child he had given birth to his mistress rather than the child with his full wife, and the apostle's man was dismayed to see if he could get a great deal of this.
Hand and souvenirs are too obvious in cash, so paintings, works of art, sterling silver dish sets, etc. that can be easily redeemed are used that are difficult to understand in the spot.... that is, three inches of the breast of the giver.
When the messenger returned, the baron returned to his chamber alone and… opened his secret wine.
And the family looked surprised by the delightful laughter of the baron heard from the room.
Also, when the envoy sent out the artwork he received for appraisal, he was presented with a price close to five times that of a handicraft he could receive in such cases, and was surprised...
And Kelvin, who was busy working in the aftermath of the battle, was flabbergasted upon news from the Royal Palace.
"Kelvin von Bailiam, narrates the Baron position. For more information about the ceremony ~ '
"... why..."
