Episode 130: Gambler's Blood

To the west of Silesier, the Sea of Seyrain extends.

In our world, they call the Atlantic the Sea of Seyrain.

Well, I don't care what your name is, but when it comes to Seylane, it's a Greek mythical sea monster whose upper body is human and whose lower body is in the shape of a bird.

Beautiful song, he said, confounds the sailors, causing them to suffer distress and distress.

That's all, I guess the outer sea means tough.

Or a cruel fantasy (real fantasy), so there's a real possibility that there are monsters like that, but anyway, there's a danger to the ocean.

The story is that a naval battle has finally broken out between the northwest archipelagic state of Britannia and your Union and the southwest peninsular state of the Kingdom of Castile over its even dangerous control of the Sea of Seyrain.

Right now, we're just talking about a small skirmish going on, but it could eventually develop into a great naval battle.

Indeed, trade in the Seyrain Sea is dangerous, but that is why it generates enormous profits. I know you're arguing for an interest, but even dangerous seas can be even more dangerous, and if you really make it this way, it's a good place to bother.

Even though there are also the problems of fighting the fistman Emperor Dyson and the regional nobility of the South who show disturbing movements, there are all the more troublesome.

But the Seylan Sea is also the sea at our garden tip, so we can't leave it alone.

The need for urgent consultation has meant that, for the first time in a long time, an operational meeting has been held in the office of Dr. Lyle in Royal Castle.

Although the usual pattern is that Dr. Lyle makes a taunting argument, and Kaala can't talk, Shelley often brings Dr. Lyle's father, Chancellor Nicola, back to speak out these days.

If Shelley disagrees with the teacher by herself, there's no problem, even if Prime Minister Nicolas is the heavy town of Silesier, which leads the prime minister faction within the kingdom.

Interesting because the prime minister, who tends to be bound by an old custom in one way or another, backs up in tune with Sherry, who uses innovative economic theories.

No, so I can't laugh because Dr. Lyle is in trouble, but it's interesting to see the schematics linking Sherry and Chancellor Nicolas, who would never be linked in theory, against Dr. Lyle's reasonable home affairs route.

Human beings are a strange thing, and I guess reason alone is inseparable, is something called politics.

If we're not talking about executing the treasury's budget anymore, it's a diagram of an old man giving his grandson a penny on his own and his parents pissing him off.

Chancellor Nicola is adorable with little Shelley on her lap and all she loves, relative to Dr. Lyle.

For Dr. Lyle, the Chancellor is the father, and Sherry is the godson. It's like grandpa and grandson consigning, so it's gonna be hard to do.

And Shelly is a good roller for grandpa. It seems that Prime Minister Nicolas, a sturdy man who cherishes his working fate, is completely caged, and it was a momentum to nod at anything Sherry said already.

That's horrible.

"That's why we've created a new manufacturing line by linking the mines, timber processing plants and blacksmiths we acquired in the Union of the Horses. The Duchy of Rankt has a large population, so it's easy to secure nitrous stones because we held down land at the Sado Chamber of Commerce."

With the barracks plan, Shelley is proud of her takeover feat.

Dr. Lyle scratched up her stretched brown forehead, like, oh man.

"Without that waste, we could have added more production lines to the Yee Mountains."

"It's not a waste, it's a prior investment, the casting and processing technology of the Principality of Rankt is better than Silesier. We have successfully manufactured a thousand pieces of the Sparkling Rope gun as soon as possible. We're working on the artillery prototype."

"Shelly, okay? Weapons require more stability than anything else. It would be a mixture of defective products anyway, such as guns and cannons created by unfamiliar craftsmen in a rush. You can't use it in action when you have just a few."

"No one can do that well from the start. Quality can also be improved if the talented craftsmen of Rankt gain experience. The Tulbe River distribution system has endless possibilities. Speak only of your immediate efficiency and what you do without using it."

Shelley's grown up.

Dr. Lyle, I can tell them back. I don't know which one is right, but let's keep it in place.

"Shelly, send that spark gun Thousand Ding to General Mintz. As much as I've been collecting and using the firecracker guns I picked up on the battlefield, even if the defective product is mixed up, he'll use it well. The Duchy of Rankt has gathered his prostitutes, so we need more guns either way."

"Yes, brother...... no, sir!

As I stroked Shelly's silver hair, Dr. Lyle sighed.

"Your father did, but Lord Takel spoiled Sherry too much."

"Lord Regent Lyle is asking your husband to be more adorable!

"Been, I'm not talking about that right now!

"It's cheating because I'm your wife, even I can be a little sweet!

Sherry can't stop.

Dr. Lyle, you're getting a little weak on the push.

Maybe this is my fault too.

Because I made Dr. Lyle a woman, that's what makes her weak.

"Uh okay, that's enough talking about the barracks, so keep Shelly company. I'll reward you later."

"Mugu..."

Hold Shelley's lips down with her hand, which is small but moves well, to discuss concerns with Dr. Lyle.

Well, I'm sure Shelley has some knowledge, but unlike Shelley, the teacher is busy because he has to think about diplomacy and war.

"Doctor, do we have to go to war with the Kingdom of Castile?"

"Depending on how much you intervene in the dispute between the Britannian and your Union and the Kingdom of Castilia, either way, because Castilia is hostile to this one."

"Even if I leave you alone, you're going to be in a war anyway, so you should cut it while you're at it."

"You're right. Castile is a naval country, but you can't leave it unattended, even by land, in the vicinity of rebellious southern regional aristocracy within Silesier."

Poor, it is also possible that regional aristocracy and Castilia will join forces to attack from the sea and land.

If the Britannians can be cut in conjunction with the Navy of your Union, you better do it now.

"But we only have two military ships,"

"That's what I mean"

Dr. Lyle smiles bitterly. The invincible fleet of the Kingdom of Castilia consists of thirty-four fleets by carac-type military ships belonging to the Crown.

If we gather the armed merchant ships in the country, the total number will approach two hundred, he said.

If Silesier alone fought, it would mean a hundred times the naval power ratio.

This doesn't even make it war.

"Besides, ours was an age-old merchant ship, no cannons on it, right?"

I've never seen the real thing, so I can't say anything.

It's thirty meters long and weighs a hundred tons total, so I guess it's enough for normal use, but can it be used as a military ship, right?

"I don't even get cannons on it, but I guess we'll just line up the bronze cannons at the tip of the line. Lord Takel says that a military ship with a real cannon is not arranged on the deck, but has a cannon line on the side of the ship."

"The teacher remembers very well what he said for a moment, that Castile's invincible fleet was also using a carac-type sixty metres long. If it's a ship with a genuine cannon, I don't think we can do it without a bigger sailboat. No, I wonder if I could have a galley ship. Anyway, the important thing is size."

I'm not sure what I know about my ship because it's about as much as I did in the game.

Anyway, if you want to line the sides of the ship, there's a big ship. Galeon ship, yes, at least without the size of a Galeon ship, it won't be a military ship using artillery.

"Is it a ship bigger than Castile in the Navy? It's a dream story."

"Well, that can't be said now, can it? In tune with the navy of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, we'll go with the Cogs when the Great Naval War begins and have Kaala hit the enemy ship with a Meteo Strike."

In the end, we talked about doing what we can now.

When it comes to shelling in a great naval battle in this world where no artillery is used, it becomes a shootout between senior magicians. I just have to learn for the moment about that example.

There are magicians here too.

Kaala is not the only genius capable of using the finest magic. You're a senior magician for being Chancellor Nicola.

However, in the case of Chancellor Nicolas, good magic is plain enough to erase magic (dispel magic).

No, is it just right to have an attack from an enemy senior magician dismissed? Interventing in wars in other countries, even if you get hurt, sounds stupid and has a use for it.

The truth is, I'd love to capture enemy ships and increase maritime power or something, but I guess I can't.

Castilian and Britannian maritime forces are three to two, even if seen in numbers alone, and Britannians are a fleet of small gatherings. You can't win this.

Instead, I figured I'd fight a lot with this.

I guess it's because the outer ocean route is a lifeline for the Union of Britannians and Monarchs in the island countries, rather than there being any way.

As we have also fought the Germanian Empire, which has grown into the outer ocean, if Castilia attacks us, we will have to fight.

Naval warfare in the first place is a tough battle that costs money and doesn't mean you win, lose, or gain territory.

Still, even if you think it's going to be a war with nothing to gain, I guess there are times when you have to wager your survival zone to fight.

I know that well enough to have a maritime state in my home country that has experienced defeat.

Die to live, that sad readiness, not to say foolish. There are sad wars like that.

"Well, that's what it is for now"

"Hmmm......"

I don't know. I thought my fingertips were raw and warm, and Shelly was sucking my fingers chew. It's like a baby.

Dr. Lyle says not to spoil it, but he's just a kid.

"Hey, Shelly. You think you can build a big boat with cannon rows?"

I carried Shelley with me. Shelley, who was sucking my fingers tutsch like a baby, is now sweetbiting my neck muscle.

I think it's a vampire, but it's what kids do, and it's nothing unpleasant. Sherry's sweetness has changed a little.

"Shipbuilding technology in the Principality of Transhvania is worth a try. We also make artillery, so why don't we flush every ingredient from the Rhine and make it in the city at the mouth of the Principality?"

"I see, do you have a takeover for that?"

"I'm not saying I can, but I can. I had already considered the possibility that your brother would tell you that. I just... I have a cost-effectiveness issue. When it comes to new shipbuilding, it costs a lot of money, and if it goes beyond the carack type, you don't know if you can do a decent ship. If you're asked if it's worth taking the risk to build a new ship, you're running out of data."

"The teacher told me it was inefficient."

"Sometimes the first time won't work, but that's why you shouldn't stop trying. It is only when everyone trembles their feet in front of the unprecedented realm that the highest dividend is given to those who take the first step"

Shelley turns her hand around my neck and hugs me all the time. The little body was shaking a little.

Shelly knows exactly what Dr. Lyle is saying. I am also afraid of failure. But still, it must be this girl who takes a step into the sea of danger.

Gambler's blood, I guess.

Recently, I felt like accepting Sherry's blood because I had a family and I was in protective custody.

"Get ready for the ingredients, I don't know if that's the right thing to do in the current situation, but I'll tell the teacher to do it right from me"

"Yes, do as your brother says!

Army countries fighting naval nations won't work out in a tricky way.

Still, there's adventure.

I'm a Silesier brave man.
