"So, what did Lord Banaj say, Alphonse?

"The Orient Nation is still focused on strengthening its national capabilities this year," he said.Basically, I would protect it if I could attack it, but I don't feel like I would aggressively attack it. "

"Well, the Orient Nation has been exhausted since it was attacked in recent years.You want to earn time and restore your country's power, just for a few minutes. "

"That's what it looks like. Besides, Lord Banaj seems to be using his magic tools well to diplomacy.I don't want to say it clearly, but it seems that the Orient Country is intimately connected to the Brillian Magic Country, which makes it difficult to be attacked by small groups of countries. "

Seeing my house burn out, I decided to use another house as a temporary base for now.

So I talked to Sula and the others.

The agenda was about what I went to Orient and talked to Banaj about.

Apparently, the Orient Nation, including Banaj, won't be fighting for a while.

I want to restore any lost statehood.

That seems to be a strong feeling.

But that's why the surrounding countries don't admit yes.

It is only natural that they will attack if there is a gap.

They decided to use the magic tools we made to prevent it as much as possible.

Magic objects are made using Magic Faction technology.

The magic team's technology was at the cutting edge of the Brillian Magic Nation and was not so common in small nations.

At least I own it as a luxury product.

That changed the situation since last year.

Because magic equipment has begun to appear in Orient.

Initially, it was announced that Orient Congressman Banaj had secretly created this magical instrument.

Apparently, they fixed the trajectory.

No, it's a little different.

The official announcement spread the rumor that Banaji had developed a magic tool making technique, but he had actually learned it from the Brilliant Magic Land.

The Brillian Magic Kingdom is called a powerful country alongside the Empire and the Church, and is stronger than any other country in the group of small nations.

The Orient nation has a close relationship with that strong country that has never existed before.

It doesn't matter whether the content is true or not, it's just a rumor.

By making them suspicious, they created a difficult psychological situation to attack.

I think this rush has just kept the country alive with the technical skills of diplomacy and manufacturing.

Banaj said it was also a double-edged sword.

Until now, taking a certain distance from any country has had a negative impact on the fact that the neutral Orient country has strengthened its ties to certain countries, even in rumours.

Therefore, the official announcement is that Banaj has only developed the technology.

"But then, will we continue to have magic tools as our main task?

"That's right. That's how we make money.But you really don't have enough manpower.If you want to steadily supply Vanage with magic tools, you must keep building them, right?But the number of people I have is too small to take me to battle. "

"Wasn't the battle going on for a while?

"You don't know that.How difficult it was for me to be psychologically attacked, I don't know how else to move.If anyone attacks, the Vulcan mercenaries will fight. "

"Do we still need to increase the number of people in Balkan villages?"

"That's right. What's going on with the salt damage, Elvis?

"The planting of salt grass seems to be improving considerably.I think that if we expand the area we plant on farmland this year while splitting the shares, we will somehow be able to produce crops next year. "

"Does that mean we can't grow crops yet this year?How many people can accept people from variants?

"Suddenly it's not a good idea to increase it too much.In the meantime, why don't you bring him here, focusing on the clever ones?

I guess so.Along with Orient Country, Balkan villages are going to feel like they're going to do their best to build strength this year. "

I can't help it.

You can't fight somewhere on your own.

However, even if you bring people from a variant, it's also too much to think about.

The number of inhabitants living at the foot of the spiritual peak is considerably lower in this small group of countries.

If that's all the members of the Vulcan village, it's still bad.

It may be better for these people to enter this village as well.

But if they steal the magic tool making technique, that's the trouble.

I wonder how much more orphans should be gathered and raised.

Surprisingly, even if I have a specific base, I think it's difficult to create an organization.

Well, let's do what we can for now.

Besides, I'm going to do what only I can this year.

This year, let's actively try to create magic.

I didn't spell it with the intention of making it from myself, but I grabbed a little of the way with it.

In this way, I set my goals for this year while looking at the sky where the winter snow was still flickering.
