I Was Kicked out of the Hero’s Party Because I Wasn’t a True Companion so I Decided to Have a Slow Life at the Frontier

"So what happened?"

Rooty asked Megria, an adventurer guild official.

Meglia responds to Luti, tensing his fainted face.

"Veronia's prince Salius came to Zoltan by warship"

"Yup"

Looking at Luti calmingly nodding, Meglia was more surprised.

"As expected, rule, did you know?"

"I saw the warship yesterday, but I didn't know that Prince Salius was coming ... At times, was the rank of succession lowered, and was the last heir to the right of Geyserik's son? "

"Yes, I heard. I don't know the details ..."

Megria, who seems unsure, is just an adventurer guild official. Even though it is the great country of Veronia, he does not know the details of a distant country. It should have been unnecessary knowledge in Zoltan ... until yesterday.

"So what does the coming prince demand?"

"To bring the Zoltan and the Christian book of the neighboring villages and villages."

"A Christian ledger ..."

The Christian Book is a record of the birth and death of the inhabitants, marriage and immigration, and the blessings they have. They collect taxes and receive some of them in the form of donations from kings and lords.

It is necessary to have the church organize the ceremonial occasion for the ceremonial occasion. Residents who are dissatisfied with the tax are obliged to do so without complaining because it is a church.

In addition, some lords have created a ledger that records the size and property of the land, separate from the Christian ledger. The Ledger's ledger only manages people, and can handle the head tax collected by the number of family members, but not the tax system that changes depending on the property. There are occasions in the Church of the Holy Church that there are opinions that the Christian ledger should be improved, but the purpose of the Christian ledger is not to pay taxes, but to list and help the religion. Seems to go as it is.

"The Ledger's Ledger is managed by the church, and it also covers the blessings. The Holy Church in Zoltan is resentful of Prince Salius' request."

It is the Holy Church's policy that, although it may be responsible for tax collection, it does not pass the religion book itself to the king. Salius' request this time can be said to be a violence against the church.

"Even though there is a Holy Church in Veronia, you can often say that bullish."

Tise, who came next to Luti, said.

The Holy Church is a troublesome partner for Assassin's Guild. Church information networks that stretched across the country could be fatal obstacles for assassins.

"Because Zoltan and Veronia are far apart, you probably don't think Zoltan's protest will not reach Veronia's home country."

Tisse tilted his head, saying that he couldn't understand Meglia's words. The organizational power of the Holy Church is perceived as a threat to Tise, the highest assassin of mankind.

Unlike other nations that cannot keep pace with the Demon King's army, this church unites faith in a pillar. Would it allow Salius to step on the territory of the church just because it is a frontier?

So Tise was wondering.

"And why is the Prince of Veronia wanting the Zoltan Ledger?"

"That ... there's someone looking for it."

"Who are you looking for? Who are you?"

"That's ... you don't need to teach us, just give us a Christian ledger."

Rooty slightly moved her eyebrows.

"I see. Don't get involved with Zoltan."

"Yes"

"So what if you refuse?"

"... Nothing. But in that case, he will be moored for a while on the Zoltan Ocean until he finds the person he is looking for.

"Resupply here. He seems to be the son of a pirate Geyserik."

In other words, the threat of piracy in the waters near Zoltan if you don't give your religion.

This is a violence that cannot be complained even if war is declared.

"It goes without saying that the Zoltan navy cannot compete."

Zoltan owns three small sailing ships. Caravel type sailing boat for 20 people. In terms of combat capabilities, Veronian military galleys carrying 300 soldiers cannot compete.

And even if they win, there is a sad difference between the great power of Veronia and the small frontier republic of Zoltan.

Indeed, when Veronia seriously started a war to the distant Zoltan and started a war, it was completely unthinkable for Rooty, but if it were a war, there would be no chance of winning Zoltan.

Asking Avalonia and other great powers for help would be full of war with the Demon King. You can't afford to fight Veronia here.

In other words, Zoltan has no choice but to drink Veronia's request.

"Hey !?"

Meglia, watching Luty, screamed.

In a hurry, Luti calms down.

"Eh, ah, I'm sorry."

For a moment, Megria felt as if she was being stared at by a giant monster. But in the blink of an eye, there are only two dependable B-rank adventurers, Luty Rule and Tifa Johnson.

Meglia exhaled large, placing his hand on his chest and holding on to the heart, which was intensely palpitating.

“…………”

Rooty is surprised that she is surprisingly grumpy in the story of Megria.

I want to get on a Veronia warship and sink it in two. So Luti thought.

"So what do you want me to do?"

Let's calm down for now. Rooty replied to her and decided to ask her what the adventurer guild wanted to do.

"I would like to ask Mr. Ruhr first to participate in a meeting organized by Zoltan leaders."

"I?"

"Rule is currently Zoltan's highest strength as an individual. Since fighting in the army cannot be talked about, Zoltan will rely on the power of individuals like Rule. So, first decide on a policy. I would like Mr. Rule to participate in the conference and give his opinion. ''

"Do you get it"

Rooty responded immediately. Meglia has a surprised expression on her face.

"Thank you, there are many adventurers who hate this kind of meeting, so I didn't think I would decide without hesitation."

"It's okay, do not worry about it"

In the brave era, it was only common for Luti, who had always attended military meetings.

"Location?"

"I'm Zoltan Parliament."

"Do you get it"

"In Congress, the church opposes Bishop Xian, the adventurer's guild favors Bishop Xian with executive Garadin and his faction, and the commander of the Guard, Moen, supports Bishop Cien if he is ready to fight if necessary. On the other hand, Mayor Tornado and General William, head of the Zoltan Army, both say that fighting is impractical. ''

"Bi Xian, Guild Executive Garadin, and Captain Moen. A former B-rank adventurer party."

"Yes, it may be because they are strong as individuals."

"Thank you, first listen to everyone's opinion. Let's go."

The fear of the great power of Veronia disappeared from the expression of Meglia following behind the dashing route.

The face, which had turned blue, is now reddish and has a mysterious euphoria.

(It's a strange person)

This new B-ranked adventurer is silent, has a poor expression, and has no idea what he is thinking. Only the strength is genuine, and even in an unreasonable situation, only two people with a friend Tifa get in and solve it immediately.

At first glance it seems less reliable than the heroes Litt, Albert and Bieux, but its strength is far less obvious than previous B-rank adventurers.

For some reason it doesn't seem creepy or scary for Meglia. Looking at the figure, it's strange that she would do something ...

"The upcoming B-rank adventurer ... I hope Rule will stay in Zoltan all the time."

Meglia realized that she had involuntarily vocalized her feelings in a small voice and blushed.
