"Hey, Ars. What is it, that meritorious award?
"What's the matter, part-time brother? Why are you so angry?
"Why are you so calm? Get angrier. Isn't it strange that you're not the best fighter in this war?
"Isn't it strange that kung fu first is Leon?
"You have defeated the master of Arbarest and the next master of Urk? Isn't it strange that Ars isn't the best?
"No, when I fought Arbarest, it was Leon who commanded each knight's alliance. The most important factor in defeating the Arbarest army was Leon's ability to plan and execute his mission. The three of us killed Pessie, and I don't think it's funny that Leon's kung fu is the best when we look at the whole fight and judge it all together."
Ichichi. Still no desire, Ars. You refused to increase your territory, didn't you?
"It's okay because you've got the money."
The battle between House Ulk in the east and House Arbarest in the west.
It was when it was finished and everything was finished.
Carlos presented the merit award for this battle.
It was Leon who was said to have the most martial arts, and I was second.
Apparently my part-time brother didn't like it at all.
But Leon does a lot of work.
In essence, it was only Leon who was able to move soldiers and set the course for victory as an army commander.
Barca can basically push into the enemy in front of her, but it is difficult to grasp the movement of the entire battlefield and use his own army in favor of the opponent.
You'll have to be able to do that a little bit more.
Well, that's fine now.
The problem is about the future.
As I had talked to Carlos in advance as the second best martial arts fighter, I succeeded in getting the Lord to reward me with money.
Normally, there are many cases where I get territory.
Especially since the territory seized in Arbarest territory was in Fontana this time, it could not be increased.
But there are a lot of problems with Barca getting bigger than ever.
The memory of killing a knight in the neighboring Knight's realm and taking possession of the territory is firmly engraved in everyone's head.
Being unable to gain territory in exchange for large sums of money also leads to a renewed appeal that Balka has no territorial ambitions.
And I paid the church for the ritual named after this large sum of money.
Or primarily to Bishop Paul.
It would be unacceptable for Bishop Paul to use the naming ritual again on his own.
That's why I went to the church in Fontana with all the Baltic surnames I added after the war and survived the Ulk's counter-siege.
After pressing with hundreds of magical people, I apologize to Bishop Paul in secret.
Bishop Paul, touched by his thoughtful apology, forgave me "only this time."
This settles the matter.
But it didn't.
That was due to a word Carlos said after the award.
"Everybody, listen up. Everyone did well this time. Thanks to all the knights' hard work, the Fontana Territory crisis is gone. But I know something about this one. It means that the movement around us is faster and more volatile than we expected. Therefore, from now on, in my Fontana territory, I will ask each knight to thoroughly:"
The final announcement by Carlos, who awarded the knight a prize for martial arts.
That was a major change in the operation of the territory until now.
The content was an extension of Fontana's city.
The current city of Fontana is a walled fortress city.
Expand the wall further.
And he said he had to build a house and live there.
Who lives here is Fontana's knight and his family.
Specifically, the wife and child will be the main target.
And it seems that this is no exception to the Knights of the Realm.
Until now, the knights who were given their territory had built a pavilion in that territory where they were based.
Naturally, there lived a family in the hall.
The city of Fontana did not have a Knight's Mansion with territory, but it was like a separate residence for winter visits.
Apparently Carlos has made progress in reforming Fontana territory.
Until then, Fontana's faction diagram, which had a strong Raymond color, must have begun to change.
It may be close to so-called centralization.
Instead of each knight flirting around in his own territory as before, he always stands by the Lord.
If anything happens, Carlos will be able to move the knight right away with a single voice.
But, well, the biggest cause is probably Balka.
There is a proven track record of defeating multiple current classes, and while possessing manoeuvrable combat power, there is no telling what to do.
I don't think I can leave this as much as I've ever done.
If you let my family live in Fontana's city, it will be a disincentive in the event of an emergency.
It is also important that I stop talking about my brother Hector and that I myself live in Fontana.
It may also be related to the presence of traitors in Fontana territory.
I think there is the idea of not communicating with other territories on my own.
So I finally transferred my address from Vulcania.
