Kuro no Senki (LN)

Part of the landscape, for Tilia, Chrono was just like a tree growing in a military school building or on its property.

If the butterfly is flying around there, I can recognize the butterfly as flying.

If the featherworms are swarmed into columns, I can recognize that there are featherworms there.

Chrono's position was out of line.

I have dark hair, and I feel like I had quite a presence compared to the noblemen flocking to me, but it wasn't until I experienced a painful defeat that I recognized him as an individual.

Defeat...... Tilia had confidence there in her skill.

From an early age, he trained in swordsmanship, studied various tactics, and even exercised the divine authority of 'God who makes himself pure white and conducts order'.

Though it doesn't extend to Leonhardt, who leads the First Kingsguard Knights, can he be active on the battlefield there? I thought so.

Pretty well-founded confidence was broken down in one defeat.

We lost to Chrono.

A chronic mind with an overwhelming advantage.

Tilia was intensely aware of Chrono.

Many, many, many times, blow the argument on Chrono, knowing that it is appropriately embellished.

I got a lifelong friend.

I felt that.

I'm sure this man will stay with us.

For example, only Chrono will be beside himself, whether he is taken from the throne or dropped in purgatory, Tyria believed.

But the reality was harsh.

The man I believed to be my lifelong friend was a half-elf... laid to sleep by both humans and half-elves who couldn't even be an elf.

Bedtime...... When I'm aware of this word, Tilia is going to get bored just imagining what kind of gasp that lowly native woman is making in Chrono's arms.

General...... even for that woman.

Speaking of widows, what face are you holding by a man other than Chrono?

Elena...... well, that's what slaves are for.

Slaves are the property of Chrono, so there is no problem with how they are treated.

I don't have a problem with it, but I don't get it somehow.

Elf twins...... three? What do the three of us do? I want to preach to you for an hour or so.

I can forgive you for going so far.

No, I won't forgive you, but I can stand it.

But what about getting your hands on Count Cairon, the man? I even want to talk to you all night about the humiliation that was won over by Count Cairon, the man.

Pride... as royalty, as princess, more, root, oh, they hurt my pride as a woman.

Tied to Chrono, he recovered his wounded pride and was immediately knocked down.

Tilia was stunned in bed when she was restrained from her hands and feet or told all sorts of things without being able to speak... it was difficult to keep her pride as a woman.

After a moment of boredom, Tilia slowly woke up her upper body and looked at the room blurred.

……

That's what I'm used to, and Tilia moved out of bed to the vanity.

Watching her own face looking grumpy when she wakes up, the door knocks and Alyssa enters the room.

"Good morning, Empress Tilia"

Nodding, Alyssa walked over and began to comb Tilia's hair with a twist in a familiar motion.

Tilia stared into the mirror and lifted her own chest with both hands.

The speed of combing hair drops slightly, but Alyssa doesn't surprise her face.

Yeah, size, tension... at least it beats Count Cairon.

Mi, the milk doesn't come out, but it's not enough to be called milk wasting.

There shouldn't be, Tilia put her hand back in position.

"Aren't you Chrono's favorite?

Pitali and Alyssa stop moving.

After a while, Alyssa began to comb Tilia's hair again.

"My husband... is a discerning man"

"Right."

I didn't end the story because it opened up.

I don't suppose Alyssa thinks you know Chrono.

Does it feel like saying that I owe you a favor for hiring me even if you think so?

"Empress Tilia, what are your plans?"

"Um, it's workout till noon. After that, we'll have an inspection with Elf's twins."

Without mastering the artifact summons, Tilia recalls the battle with Count Cairon and renews her determination.

Artifact Summoning is the art of summoning the weapon in which the power of God resides, and belongs to the highest rank, except for divine authority summons in divine authority.

"Done"

As Tilia changed into a white military uniform and walked out of the room, Viscount Eryl Sardomerik was sitting in the hallway with her knees.

He's a total bore, Tilia said, halfway through the hallway ignoring Eryl, who calls herself a watchman.

……

"Did you hear from my father that you were being favoured?

A former subordinate... who now works in the territory of Chrono in clerical duties... is what I heard from him.

"Very well taken care of"

"... Mmm."

Thankful for his late father, now it's Chancellor Alcor's dog, Tilia nearly slipped her mouth, but weighs herself in.

"His Majesty is no longer there. You should think of the most efficient way to live."

That's the same, I think Tilia.

Some die for pride and honor, while others pursue their own interests even when they are defamed of ungratefulness.

In the end, rewarding is indicating or giving what you want, I guess.

Shake the wooden sword.

Shake carelessly.

Thousands, tens of thousands of repetitive moulds will be repeated today.

Imagine an enemy and move your body.

"... after all, without someone"

"I don't like it."

As Tilia turned her gaze, the boy stopped barebacking and said disgustingly from the bottom of his heart.

Fey's apprentice, the boy, seriously continues to train in swordsmanship.

"I'll give you a break, okay?

"I don't like it."

Looking around, Viscount Eryl Sardomerik was reading some books.

"Why don't you fight me?

Eryl looked up at Tilia in disinterest.

"Don't. When I fight for real, the mansion of the Marquis Elakis breaks down"

"Well, we're moving to the squad."

Eryl opens her eyes to surprise.

But Tilia grabs Eryl's roots and heads to the squad yard.

"... Walk Yourself"

Eryl started walking on her own feet when she approached the outer edge of the city.

Outside the city, Eryl narrowed her eyes.

At the end of his gaze is the field… a beat field made by order of Chrono.

It seems to be growing other unexplained trees.

"At this rate, we'll be eating ice cream again."

Sugar imported from the group of free urban states is not a luxury for Tilia.

I'd love to, but it's just about as much as I can stand without.

"... I'm so sorry. Marquis Elakis is making a whole new attempt"

As Tilia turned around, Eryl took her gaze off the book only for a moment.

"Originally, sugar is made from sugar cane. The sugar cane was supposedly made in the South, in crops made in warm areas that could not be made in the Empire."

"That's how much you know, huh?

Eryl sighed deeply.

"The Marquis Elakis is trying to make sugar in a different way than usual. This is also an act of destroying vested interests"

That's the kind of dialogue you heard somewhere, huh? and Tilia tilted her neck.

If I remember well, I feel like I threw up a similar dialogue myself.

"... Marquis Elakis is made a creator and a destroyer. The same paper he makes in Marquis territory, as well as the Silva 3D salt fields. It could break the order that's always existed."

Mm, mmm, and Tilia roared with her lips pointy.

It is an anomaly at a time when I, the rightful heir to the throne, am in a relationship with my classmates in military schools, both men and women, even if they say it could destroy the order that has existed before.

Besides, he's got his hands and feet restrained, he's got a monkey bite and verbal blame.

Compared to this unusually unusual situation... No, I don't think this is normal.

"You value Chrono very much, but he can't do anything by himself."

As I noticed when I went on an inspection of Count Cado's territory, the knowledge of the other world that Chrono possesses is full of holes.

"I feared that Chrono would have a bad impact on the Empire... yeah, Chrono's not that big of a guy"

"Empress Tilia thought she appreciated him correctly"

"No one appreciates Chrono more correctly than I do."

Tilia put her arms together and strained her chest.

"In the first place, Chrono thinks of the interests of his territory, so it's natural for the interests to conflict with someone else"

"He is trying to educate and improve the status of the subpeople. This could shake the reign of the empire from the ground up."

The Kepheus Empire is regarded as more tolerant to the subpeoples than to the surrounding countries.

This is to secure the workforce by incorporating it as a ruling class, but the imperial system of domination will be forced to change if the subpeoples get a major say.

"Chrono just gave the Subhumans a chance. If the reign of the empire is to shake, it is not Chrono's fault. The Asians thought for themselves and tried to win their rights. That's all."

Maybe, maybe.

Subhumans and humans in the territory of Chrono are probably in the midst of a chance they are supposed to visit in a few hundred years.

I'm sure, hundreds of years from now, civilians will have power.

That slight, cautious, cautious, even more cautious omen you might overlook...... yes.

Once, I tried to stick a dagger in Chrono because I had a feeling it could break now.

Tilia laughs like she is now, wondering if her current situation might not be bad.

Because they took the right to inherit the throne, but spared them from becoming enemies of the civilian population.

"No, no, Chrono's a big man"

……

The submen were training at the squad yard.

The smell of blood irritates the nasal cavity.

They don't get out of hand because Chrono isn't here.

Both recruits and ancient conscripts are beating each other up by demonstrating their temper while in action.

"Empress Tilia, what's wrong? '(Bubba Bubba?

"I've come to make arrangements with Viscount Eryl Sardomerik."

Crono's deputy opened his eyes to surprise.

"Once we're done, we're gonna borrow the elf twins."

"I don't mind, but Deneb and Aridead are off duty and here they are." (Bubba ~)

Yeah? And Tilia looked over at the squad yard.

You don't seem to be training for equestrianism today.

'Break!' (Bubba!

When Krono's deputy screams, the soldiers stop combining hands while confused.

A circle of people can be made as if the tide were pulling.

It's a pretty big wheel, but Eryl seems somewhere unhappy.

"Better get away from it"

"Why isn't this enough?

Eryl nodded small,

"Virtual Personality Activation, Surgical Inventory, Surgical Selection 'Flame Bullet Disturbance', Orbital and Ammo Count Changes"

"Huh!"

Tilia opened her eyes in amazement.

Tilia also knows if it's flame-bombing.

Flamebouncing is located at the intermediate level of flame-based witchcraft, and the effect is to emit a great flame of gripping fists.

The orbit is easy to read in a straight line and has the disadvantage of being hard to sweep because the number of flames produced at a time is ten.

But Eryl's flame bouncing was different from what Tilia knew.

A flame poured down the center of the ring.

Are the numbers thirty, forty, or fifty or more?

Not like rain.

This could happen if you instantly reverse a bucket full of water.

To prevent you from getting caught up in it, or the circle of a person breaks and becomes a semicircle.

"Is he the one who starts magic multiple times? '(Bubba Bubba?

"Unlike the Marquis Elakis"

Eryl knelt and wrote formula on the ground at her fingertips...... 1 +1 +1 +1 +1 = 5, next to which she wrote 1x5 = 5.

"Sorcery doesn't change the effect of whoever uses it. Because this uses the same magic ceremony. I can change the number of magic ceremonies and change the effects of magic. I multiply, Marquis Elakis is like adding up"

How is that different? '(Bubba?

Eryl points her lips in dissatisfaction.

"Different burdens"

Eryl surrounds the formula with squares.

"Attributes and consciousness capacity become important in order to use witchcraft. Those who do not possess the attributes of fire cannot handle the magic of fire. Nor can magic be used beyond the limits of conscious capacity. And the beast man can't use magic without the aid of tools because of his low consciousness capacity"

Eryl exhaled rough as she said she was tired.

"Is consciousness capacity different from memory? '(Bubba?

"Conscious capacity is instantaneous, memory is long-term... magic ceremonies are preserved as unconscious memory"

"Just in case, what happens if you exceed your conscious capacity? '(Bubba Bubba?

"Die"

Tilia was struck like she had been beaten with a blunt instrument.

That would be the same for Crono's deputy.

Anyway, Chrono has risked his life twice.

"Marquis Elakis understands the danger of multiple activation"

"If multiple activation is dangerous, I can do it like you."

"I can't do that"

Eryl shook her head left and right.

"My consciousness capacity is nearly three times that of an ordinary person. You can't incorporate a virtual personality without at least as much consciousness capacity as I do."

"... well. Well, that goes hand in hand."

Eryl glanced at Tilia for her ascendancy.

"Don't you understand?

"I am. But I can't help but worry about it here. If we stop it, we'll use Chrono."

Tilia received a wooden sword from an elf that was nearby and distanced herself from Eryl while gently barebacking.

"You feel like you've been thrown into the enemy line."

The subhumans are evacuating behind Eryl for fear of getting involved.

I have no choice, but I seem isolated and lonely to have no one behind me.

Plenty of distance, Tilia set up a wooden sword.

"Well, it's a battle"

"Understood. Strike with all your might...... thunderous fury"

Moment after moment, Tilia's vision was wrapped in blue light.

The blue light swallowed the Empress of Tilia as the soaked snake dusted up.

The roar, like real thunder, reaches Eryl's ear late.

"... or it's too much."

Minotaur's voice reaches, but he declared he would do everything in his power, so there shouldn't be a problem.

Eryl waits for the dust to subside.

For a moment, I felt like I saw a shadow. And it was all too late then.

Empress Tilia jumps out of the sand dust she can already stand in.

"Impossible"

Empress Tilia was swinging down the wooden sword while Eryl was surprised.

Eryl stares at the wooden sword...,

"And I thought you were gonna die."

Tilia stopped the wooden sword on the verge of touching Eryl and wiped the cold sweat.

"Empress Tilia, I... I thought I couldn't do it anymore" (Buyabu)

"Neither do I. But this won't help you on the battlefield."

I didn't know you couldn't even react to an attack.

"From my point of view, it's a threat."

"You're in command."

Eryl's ability to attack a wide range can be a threat in mass combat.

However, if you have a defensive means such as kamikaze, and the condition is one-on-one battle, you will not leave the troubled area.

"What would you do?

"If I were you, I'd put it together with a heavy-duty infantry, and it'd be easier to place it in the front row of the formation, in the center of it" (Buyabu)

"Why don't you make me a cavalry?

'If you make that loud noise, the horse will panic easily. If you're just going to be shaken off, you can't even look at your allies if their behavior is inhibited. "(Bu Bu Bu - Bu Bu)

That's the first time Minotaur has spoken logically.

Tilia drew a wooden sword, wondering if it was the result of her education, or if she had high qualities from the beginning.

Eryl then collapsed on the spot like a broken thread puppet.

"Either way, it's hard to get stunned when you've stopped inching."

"He's... a little more difficult to respond to." (BUZA ~)

I'll take care of it.

Leaving the stunned Eryl on the spot, Tilia returned to the city of Hashel.

Residents' gaze pierces them because they are painted with dirt and dust.

"Gahhhhhhhh!"

"The princess found me even though it was my turn in the corner!

Screaming like livestock on the verge of being slaughtered, the twin elves make every effort to escape Tilia.

But Tilia is not sweet enough to allow her to escape.

Catch up lightly, grab the two roots and head to the dewstore.

"I need you to stay with me today."

"" Master Chrono, help me!

Ignoring the two who ask for help, Tilia goes from open-store to open-store... Hashigo the open-store if you use a common expression.

When he scissors about ten dewstores, the twin elves fill out something on the paper with a feather pen removed from the porch.

"What are you doing?

"I'm charging the princess the sum she spent as a social expense to Master Chrono!

"When, don't you feel guilty about letting poor people like us luxury you?

Stuck in twin elves, Tilia was stuck in words only for a moment.

"If you want to charge Chrono, fine."

"Huh, what a dialogue!

"It's like you don't learn, you don't work, you don't want to!

"I was going to read a book when it rained. Rain and shine reading is the basics of people."

No, I felt like I was being called a human being, Tilia said back.

"It's impossible to read a book or something when it rains!

"It's like the clergy of The Loess Temple who's living such a spare life!

The two trampled on the estate with regret.

"Do you have a princess problem with your current condition?

"Various as royalty...... blah blah blah, what kind of ambition is it to regain the right to inherit the throne?

"No, not at all. It was all about getting beat up at first, but now every day is full."

""... Phew ""

When Tilia answered with her chest stretched out, the twin elves sighed out as though to say they were exhausted.

"Beh, that's not good. Just because I'm here serves to strengthen my relationship with the new nobility... and in the first place, will you guys fight with me if I speak up?

"" I refuse!

Energetically turned down, Tilia recessed only slightly into her own lack of popularity.

"No, look, a princess is an interesting person,"

It's like risking your life.

A clown, I am! and Tilia shook her shoulders as she dropped.

"Master Chrono, Count Ernato... uh, that guy, he's tall"

"If it's Chrono's mistress, Count Rio Cairon or something, I'll think about it."

"Wait. How did you get the names of Count El Nato and Count Cairon?

The twin elves looked at each other strangely.

"Well, Count Ernato secured us a way out of here during the retreat."

"Count Cairon... well, like the pattern you painted on the mud and fought with? I would have liked to appeal to Master Chrono, but he healed my wounds with divine authority."

Tilia was even more concave that Count Rio Cairon had been favored by the Subhumans while I was closed to the main tower.

"He's a man. He's Chrono's mistress."

"Yes, but few people can keep their lives in the true sense of the battlefield."

"We're idiots, so when you're nice, you're worried about it."

The twin elves laughed lonely.

"So the princess wants you to be nice to us."

"If you'd been nice to me, I might try my best for the princess"

Mmm, and Tilia roared with her lips pointed.

"... dismissed"

"" Why?

The twin elves opened their eyes and shouted.

"Because I'm going to be trampled down by the kindness I invested in. Besides, I'm not sure I'd invest more than Chrono."

"No, no, I didn't ask you to invest more than Master Chrono."

"Yeah, yeah, just a little bit better, like I want you to stop taking me around"

As Tilia stared, the twin elves tried to escape.

Soon Tilia grabbed the two roots,

"... dismissed. If we go around the dewstore a little longer, we'll go grab some incense tea."

"" Our investment is being stepped down!

Just a little refrain, Tilia said, but the twin elves gradually lose power.

The twin elves were laid back when they reached their usual thin, dirty dining room.

Three incense teas.

"Yes, the cheapest guy"

"We could use some water."

After a while, Elf's service put the cup on the table.

The number of cups is three and the aroma is quite thin, but it looks like incense tea.

"... you guys are poor?

"I'm not."

"It's like I'm in the middle of saving for the future"

Savings...... out of the mouth of the subhuman, it's a word that makes him uncomfortable, Tilia said, looking at the twin elves.

We're both stuck at the table, so all we can see is the back of our heads.

"Hmm, what are you going to do?

"... I haven't decided, like, to build a house"

"Like saving money to start an ice-cream outdoor shop"

Is this also an achievement of education, Tilia carried the cup to her mouth?

"Then why don't we rent land near the harbor?

"... I don't know why."

I feel like I can sell my rights high when the port develops, but Tilia put the cup on the table.

"That said, the harbor was in shape."

I remember the other day when I went on an inspection, and Tilia shrugged small.

Construction begins in March, now in August.

The shoreline and jetty are already complete and the lighthouse is nearing completion.

Soon, the guys who name the 'union' are starting to build warehouses and buildings... but according to Kane, a lord's agent, they are merchants funded by Chrono.

"... that's something you get used to"

Tilia shrugged in a sigh. I thought you'd be a little more depressed because you're leaving with your first man.

No, I miss you, I'm worried, I'm depressed, but I can act like I always do.

"Master Chrono is home!

It was when Tilia drank the incense tea and put the cup on the table that she heard such a voice.

"... Huh!

Tilia was rushing out driven by impulses she didn't even know about.

Shit. I haven't seen Chrono in a long time. He remains in a thin, dirty outfit.

Or Tilia keeps running along the flow of people.

Scratch people, scratch them, fall through the hedges.

The gaze is staggered.

It's too much to stagger your gaze the moment you get out of the carriage.

Put all your thoughts into it...

"... Grrrr!

Tilia let her fists plunge into Chrono's belly.

Chrono does not fall even as he bends at a right angle to the base of his fist.

"No, Tilia?

"... how much do you think I was worried about? Oh, sure, even though I know you're that kind of guy! But, but, but!

Tilia stared at the strange girl riding on the carriage and Faye with a puzzled look on her face.

"There's more of them!

Pfft! I heard a noise and Tilia thrust Chrono aggressively.

The tip of the spear passes at the same time as the fingertip leaves.

"Chrono, Scratch Tukel, Xu Sanai!

"Who, you!

Distancing without alarm from the girl, Tilia reaches for the sword.

"Me, Sue. Chrono, no, daughter-in-law da '

The daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, and the girl named Sue repeated the word to rebut.

"I'm Tilia, Chrono's...... my real wife! First lady!

Bouncing his chest, Tilia answered Sue.

"Mmm, it's a training ground."

Faye gently descends from his horse and stands to shelter Chrono.

The...... Tilia perceived everything from the way she was really happy to shelter Chrono.
