"Let's say Kyle is free to cut to get the lead as the current leader of the House. What about the soldiers? Kyle won't be able to use the Fontana army if he's free to cut it, so do we need to have our own army as a leader, just like the Border Homes?
"That's right. You must have your own power to rule the territory you've cut off. Does Arus intend to go to war with House Reed?
"I don't know what to do. Well, I don't know how many troops Kyle can gather, but I think we should send an army from Barca as a force. I think my part-time brother will come out."
"I see. However, it would be better not to have more Vulcans than the Reed."
I see. Are there any such considerations? Copy that, Leon. So, the point is where to seize the land. And I need a big name. This year, the Church has just ordered the prohibition of war everywhere, but it will take the form of breaking it, and a solid reason will be necessary. "
We started talking about the realm of the House of Leads at the moment we decided on freedom of cut.
I will immediately think about the formation of an army and where to target.
Speaking of which, we often fought back after being attacked, but this time we thought we were going to move from ourselves.
Rather than a cause to criticize the opponent you have attacked as before, you need a reason to attack the land to attack and a reason to continuously rule the land.
If there is nothing in the name of the cause, the Reed's movements will not only be condemned, but the inhabitants of the land will also see it as "uncontrollable."
It is also important to combine with the Fontana kingdom.
The kingdom of Fontana, to put it mildly, consists of Balkans and kingdoms from the north, and Grahams to the south.
And there are three frontier colonies to the south of the Graham territory.
Each of the Xylia Burma Ikes Border Territories is given freedom to cut through the southern aristocracy.
The operation has already begun, and although there is no large-scale battle, moves such as maneuvering against other nobles and knights are underway.
It would be bad if the House of Reed suddenly took those lands and turned them into territory.
Because it could become a ruthless relationship with the Border Homes that were targeting it.
Therefore, there was no rubbing within the Fontana kingdom, it was worth aiming for, and I could still attack, and I had to think of a place where I needed a name just to rule.
... is there such a thing?
"Then there's only one land to target."
"Eh, is there, Leon? Such a convenient place."
"Yes, but even if the strategy works, it may be tough afterwards. There is a place where the Church, which issued the injunction, can be convinced and rule the land, and benefit the Kingdom of Fontana."
"Where is it? I can't think of anything at all."
"It's easy, Ars. This is the land that Naja, who led the Marshall Mercenaries, occupied and the site of the Holy City."
"Naja? Well, did Naja rule the Heikaïl and Gizanian territories south of King's Landing? And they marched therefrom, and raided every place, and turned the holy city, which was in the southwest of the king's city, into salt. Aim for it?
"Yes, what is particularly important is the site of the sacred capital. Because it used to be the home of the church, church officials still recognize it as a sacred site. When it comes to restoring that loss of land, it is an act for the Church and not a battle for its own benefit. It is a good reason to persuade the Church, and it is the name of the cause."
"Well, maybe it's easy to convince. But isn't someone already holding the land? The Linzats are close to their own territory and to the King's Land, aren't they?
"I can't even say that, Ars. The reason is in Naja. It is now a land of death."
"Yes? The land of death? I should have defeated the immortals, but is there a chance that there will be more immortals?
"No, it's not. It's the land that's dead. It was too extensively influenced by Naja's [Light of Judgment]. Too much salt contaminated the land and no crops were growing this year. That's why the Reinzats have nominally seized and left the sacred capital site and its vicinity."
I see.
At that time, I returned immediately after one incident in the Holy City, but was that what happened?
Indeed, all the huge cities have been turned into salt.
Moreover, there are signs that Naja has used Light of Judgment several times on her way from her home base to the Holy City.
There must have been a lot of salt left and it was washed away by the rain.
As a result, did it cause great damage to the surrounding land?
"And there's another reason why the Linzats have left the land."
"Do you still have it?
"Yes, there are magicians, Arus. There are many wizards in and around the former Heikaïr and former Guiana territories. All ordinary people who are not nobles or knights can use magic. And even attack magic."
Oh, I see.
Though completely unfortunate, Naja used his ability to [collect] to steal magic passes from priests in the church.
As a result, Naja's magic amount jumped and Valkyrie eventually [collected] that magic pass.
In other words, the magic path that was connected from Najah continues to exist through Valkyrie.
Even if you can't use Naja's [Collect] or Valkyrie's [Share], other magic remains available.
It may have become an uncontrolled lawless zone.
It's a powder dump, enough to throw a spoon at a hegemonic Rheinzatz family.
"Then can I say that I will protect the people from the great cause of reclaiming the holy city through the church and the mobs who can use the magic that makes the width of the land easier? Yeah, it could be a reason to attack and a reason to rule."
I don't think it was me who created the trigger after Najah was defeated.
I thought it was like a match pump, but I don't think you should tell me.
I wonder if I should use anything I can use.
In this way, we deepened our discussion about the future.
