Isekai Taneuma

The brave Federation Council was at odds.

The Thirteen Brave Clans, who had won the invasion of the previous Empire, allowed Congress to return to Alma. But the Brave Leader is in such a crisis, not to mention the betrayal of the Alma Nation. However, in view of the prevailing circumstances, Congress, which is not solely responsible for the Alma Nation, had to first summarize the war ahead. But we don't have enough parties for that.

The Warriors would have fought the Empire, but the Empire didn't recognize it, and there was no representative of the Empire here.

Sir Orpheus Caligula, Commander-in-Chief of the Imperial Army, said that, as Waltstein was concerned, the series of battles that took place in the Brave Realm was a house disturbance between Isaac XI and XII, and he often said they had nothing to do with it.

He was furious with the Federation Congress, both right and left. Tolerance (liberals) are not tolerant enough to be invaded and silent. Of course, Taka factions such as the Kara Nation shouted out loudly that they should carry out a counter-invasion… But it goes without saying that it is not so easy to say that now that we know the end of the Imperial army, which was devastated by guerrilla troops scattered around the barracks.

Whether seeking compensation from the Empire or reverse invasion, there were a variety of issues that needed to be resolved. I'm angry that I won, but I can't get anything... anyway, let's start by thinking about why this Hermes War happened.

The war first broke out in Hermes. When the Empire found out that Lord Hermes summoned the brave, it concluded that he had treason against him and sent troops to abolish Isaac XI, who responded by hitting the heroes he had summoned… Hermes was defeated after a fierce battle.

Looking at that alone, this war may be regarded as Isaac XI's runaway… In the first place, he was compelled to do so because of the history of the Warrior Liberals and the Empire trying to make a trade treaty over Sir Hermes' head.

Three hundred years ago, the War of Warriors, which began with the assassination of the former warrior by the Empire, ended with a long armistice period, which is now being shaped. In fact, the two sides were economically linked through the buffer zone in northern Bohemia, the Empire gained access to products and processed goods such as food from the New World, and the Warriors depended on the silver produced by Bohemia.

Therefore, the heroic Liberals, who feared that the deal would end in the future, thought that peace with the Empire would be tolerant, and both the Helmets and the Federal Assembly were hoping to make peace individually.

They had enough money to do it, and parliamentary manipulation was adequate. In fact, in Congress after the Hermes War, Liberals overwhelmingly dominated, and the opinions of conservative Alma and Kara countries were not heard. It is well known that King Alma could not forbid disappointment and turned his backs to defend his country.

I will talk about it before and after, but it was the same in Hermes country that didn't accumulate when I did that. The Hermes kingdom reigned as a heroic flag while belonging to the Empire, and continued to fight for the honor of that heroic man.

That was possible because of the prestige of the first Ser Hermes and the valiant realm that produced enormous wealth, but if it disappeared, the isolated and helpless Hermes nation would be beaten inside the Empire and would soon bend its knees. Then you won't know what the last 300 years have been.

So, of course, Eleven, who sensed the movement, moved to persuade the brave Liberals. However, after a long time since the beginning of the War of the Brave, the 13 clan Liberals, whose color as nobles had become darker, had forgotten their gratitude to the brave, and were only interested in my profit and loss account.

Without listening to Isaac's persuasion, they have rebelled that Hermes should move towards peace. War of bravery has been going on for 300 years, and there is hardly anything to remember back then. However, the young generation will always be brave, even if they are captured by the ghosts of the past. Rather, it would be good for Hermes in the future to think about the way forward with the Empire in a futuristic way.

That's true, but it's not in the right order. It would be good to think of peace in a future-oriented way, but isn't that something we all discuss and decide through Congress? What they're saying is that they're self-influencing the future of their country, and they're reopening it because they found out. Of course Isaac didn't like their appeasement.

And he solemnly cleared the Liberal towns. One day, he summoned me to the castle and killed me pretending to accept their persuasion. And he used the body to summon the heroes, and summoned the five Feng.

Well... that's why Congress couldn't find the cause of the war ahead of us. The Alma Nation and Isaac XI could not be said to be all bad, nor, of course, the Liberals who were killed in the center.

Well, speaking of the Empire, it was also difficult. It was Sir Hermes Isaac XII, with the help of the Imperial Army, who actually invaded the Herculean realm, as they described the war as a disturbance in Hermes' home.

It was clear that he was a puppet of the Empire, exploited his vanity and invaded the brave. But it was hard for me to admit it because I really thought so. He is currently detained in the Warrior's Reich, but no matter how much he asks, he did not admit that he was being used by the Empire.

This is how it has happened so far. The Federation Congress was shaken by either a truce or a counter-invasion.

Warring factions, of course, are Kara and Isaac XI. He had a reason to take back his stolen castle, and it was urgent to fight back with the help of the brave leader. The senators couldn't help but say no to the young Sir Hermes, who repeatedly lowered his head in Congress and asked for help.

However, the Heroic Army of the Request Line also suffered considerable pain from the previous battle, although it won, and it was difficult economically to organize an expedition again from now on. As Congress, worst of all, if the invasion of the Empire against the Brave realm can be stopped, there is no reason to actively recapture Hermes.

That is why Congress, to speak of it, remained at the back of the reverse invasion. While Isaac shouted out to lend the army, the senators nodded that they knew how they felt, but avoided explicit statements, and the scene continued to cloud the tea.

As it stands, Congress will probably lean towards a truce, and Isaac will lose Hermes. It was when he was in a hurry. However, the backup shooting came from an unexpected source.

While Congress was in disarray, we received word that a messenger from the Empire had arrived in the Brave Leader. This is the first time the Empire has responded properly to an earlier war. The Federation Council thought he was probably a messenger of peace and politely invited him in. But it was never the messengers of peace that came.

The messenger said.

"I command Isaac XII to summon him to the Empire. The fearful Emperor is distrustful of Lord Hermes, who is now absent from the country and will never return. Why is Lord Hermes always in bravery? Sincerely, it exists. She came to the Imperial Capital as soon as possible because she was given the opportunity to explain. Otherwise, I will see a rebellion against the Empire and correct it with Your Majesty's army."

Hearing the messenger's words, the Federation Council was colorful.

It seemed like he was blaming XII, but the contents clearly demanded that the brave leader return him. Without any compensation. Otherwise, there is a threat that every XII will be willing to take down the Brave Leader.

I couldn't stand the brave moderate in this, and when I chased the messenger back to chase the dog away, I calmed down deeply on the chair with my hips that I had just reached down to encourage me to continue talking.

This became the decisive factor, and the Federation Congress leaned toward a reverse invasion. Imperial invasion certainly didn't fit the bill, but even without such a profit and loss account, people sometimes have to fight.

When Isaac XI gained momentum, he thanked the Federation Congress, declared himself in command of the invasion, and told the senators that he would win.

"First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to the brave leaders who have resolved to fight with me. The invasion will be difficult, but we have a comfortable ally. He was a brave man who showed unparalleled success in the previous Armada Liberation War! I think we brave men stood up to inherit the will of that brave man. As long as we have brave men like them, we will never lose! The wicked tyrannical emperor will see you again!

"I'm not going. Why do you have to help with the war?"

The day after New Amsterdam's federal council adopted a counter-invasion of the Empire, Isaac XI came to the village of Vinci with great courage to bring his children and ask Feng and Jeanne to join the fight.

Firstly, after completing the investigation of P99, Feng, who had also completed the movement of the beasts, welcomed the guest who came to the place where he thought he had to do something... while drinking coffee after breakfast, and said the most openly.

Isaac turned his eyes round.

"Why!? Don't you want the Empire to blow your brains out!?

"Nothing... I didn't get hurt saying that."

"I've been robbed of my country!? Even you once lived in a city. You don't want that back!

"Oh, that's it. I went to see how things were the other day, but I managed to rebuild it and give everyone my regards. After all, it doesn't matter who lives there. If the annuity is there and it's peaceful, then that's enough."

"That's not how it works! That was originally mine. Can you leave it unjustly deprived?"

"I don't suppose there's any injustice. It's a consequence of the war. I don't suppose you could have fought without expecting this at all."

"That's... but don't you regret it? The Imperial Army is the enemy that killed your people?

Feng glanced at Jirori as he bit his back teeth.

"If you say so, it's probably because you originally called us to this world! From the beginning, if you hadn't summoned the brave, there wouldn't have been a war, and your friends wouldn't have died! I don't want you to say that."

"Well, calm down, Phoenix. I'm not asking you to follow me... and I'm the general! If they say that, I was fighting them back then, and I couldn't stand it. Be more careful what you say."

As Feng and Isaac stared at each other, Waltstein, who came with him to the Leonardo Hall, fairly forgave and entered the arbitration. He was right, and it was he who was fighting the courageous Feng's companions back then. In that case, Valtstein would be a better enemy than Isaac. But when Feng turned away,

"Nothing... I knew they might die, and they're the only ones left, so I don't resent you."

"I'm glad you said that... but won't you follow me to war?

"... ahh"

"I see... well, I thought you might say that. Fort Bohemia seemed uninterested. But that will break your bones again, with the persuasion of the congressmen who were counting on the strength of the brave."

Feng said softly.

"Well... why does the Federation think I'm a brave man? Certainly, in the last battle, I was wandering backwards to earn a medal... but I didn't think they acted as heroes to me."

Oh, well, then...

Apparently, Isaac testified in Congress that he had used a gun curse, such as a reservoir or a town portal, after the Pizarro crusade. He might have been the only one there, but the congress was suddenly motivated by Permel and Diogenes, who affirmed it.

"Isaac...!!"

"What!? I'm just telling the truth. Besides, didn't you use the portal to get Dr. Scarsache on track? Sooner or later, your presence would have been bright."

"Hmm... it's convenient, but I need to know where to use it."

Feng sighed and corrected his posture.

"Anyway, I'm sorry about the war. What do you guys want me to do? As long as I'm counting on the strength of the brave, I'm sure you'll want to be in the vanguard and let go of the great magic on your enemies. I'm not kidding."

"Why? I'm sure you'll be a hero."

"On the contrary, they will resent the Imperial soldiers. If you're playing an unusual game with the same power, if you die irrationally with my cheating skills, my family will hate me forever."

"I don't know. It's powerful, so you just have to kick it off."

"What does the king of the diaspora say? If I had the power, this wouldn't have happened."

"I haven't lost my country yet!

"So-so!

Waltstein splits into pieces. I kind of felt like a kindergarten teacher. He wiped his forehead with sweat.

"I understand. You're not going to join the war, are you?

Sort of.

"Well then, I guess I can't help it... but what are you going to do now? It would be uncomfortable to remain in the brave domain."

"I don't care about that... but I'm going to the big forest."

"Omori Forest? Why are you here again?

Feng nodded and began to talk about what was happening in the big forest today.

Francisco Pizarro, the empire's mafia who held Isaac in Alma County, vandalized the tribal society of the Great Forest with the book of Hermes that he took from him. Looks like he was looking for a tribe with the P99 symbol drawn there... but he didn't think about it later, he destroyed the settlements one after the other without considering that the Beasts were suppressing the Demons, and the big forest is now overflowing with powerful demons.

Feng intended to work with the mani who inherited Gargantuar's name to free the Great Forest in order to break the status quo. The Beasts are currently camping at the edge of the valley facing the great forest, waiting for their arrival.

"Is that what the big forest was like...?

Waltstein wrinkled his eyebrows hard to hear.

"Ah, Pizarro apparently intended to take over the position of Lord Hermes once he acquired Hermes' legacy. That's why they were crushing the Wesen tribe with lice without even thinking about what the big forest would look like."

"... how about that?

When Feng said so, Waltstein twisted his neck a little and objected to the feeling that it could not be solved.

"Since he was one of my men, he was a type of soldier who didn't do anything futile, whether he was well prepared, or no graduate. That said, I didn't follow predetermined routines, and I had the flexibility to adopt them if there were easier ways. I can't believe he's ruining Wesen society without meaning. Somehow, it's like he's not acting like him...."

"Did Pizarro do it on purpose? What's the point?

When Feng asked, Waltstein shook his head that he didn't know anything about it.

"Well, think about it. Was it Hermes' legacy? If you're just looking for a mysterious mark, you don't need to go out of your way to crush the Wesen colony. You'd better come closer with a friendly gesture. I can think of things I did to help Raven take revenge for fun, but I did it too much. This is like a riot aimed at crushing the Wesen community."

"Sure... then, is that really your goal? But for what..."

I don't know. I don't know what I was thinking when he died... but maybe it was insurance. "

"Insurance...?

Waltstein nodded.

"It was the Imperial General Caligula who gave Pizarro the wisdom to find Hermes' legacy. Pizarro was commanded by Caligula to come to the great forest in search of a legacy. Even if he was afraid to get it and betray Caligula, there is no guarantee that it will be found. That's why you pretended to follow the calligraphy until you got the math to get it.

"... that's why Caligula ordered us to mess up the tribal society of the Great Forest?

"Maybe... you're a bum, aren't you? Then the name Caligula sounds familiar. What kind of person was he in your world?

Feng braced his arm and looked at him with a difficult face.

"... that's 2,000 years older than the time I was alive, so I don't really know. However, the Roman Empire continued to suffer from bad governance for some time after the collapse of the first Augustus. Caligula must have been an emperor synonymous with that."

"It's synonymous with evil... and it's possible that attacking the Beast was just malicious. Hmm...."

"You've seen the real thing, haven't you? What was he like?

When Feng asked the other question, Waltstein rethinked for a while.

"Actually, the day before I left Hermes with the refugees, I got a scout from him. He told me to be his commander, as if he already wanted to attack the Brave Leader at that time. Of course, I refused, but... then he ran away with something strange."

"Strange thing...?

"Oh, I said it was reckless to attack the Brave Leader. Even if it works at first, there is a difference between economic power and local power in the Empire and the Brave Realm, so it is eventually pushed back. That's what it is, isn't it? Well, anyway... if I said so, he'd be fine with it."

"Do you mind...? I mean, you think I can lose?

"Ah, if that destroys the Empire, that's fine. Rather, it would be better to unite the divided countries so that mankind could confront the Demon King. He said he found signs of the Devil's Resurrection. I remember that."

"Demon King Resurrection...!?

Isaac, who listened silently, shouted in surprise. For the people of this world, the demon king was a disaster that might come one day, like a great earthquake and typhoon, and now that the number of saints had drastically decreased, unlike last time, it was the worst scenario I didn't want to think about. If the Demon King had come now, could mankind have confronted him.....

"I was stupid at the time... and now that I've heard that story, I don't think it's a good idea to cut it all off..."

"... is this orc breeding maybe a sign of the Devil King's resurrection?

"I don't know... if so, the reverse invasion of Hermes territory by the Brave Army would follow his scenario... I'm concerned about the big forest, but we might have to watch out for each other."

That's what Waltstein said. Feng and the others looked at each other, and each of them moved to strike the next stone.
