Maou No Utsuwa

With the withdrawal of the Imperial Army, all the Northern Belgian territories fell into the hands of the Republic..., not translated.

The army led by the Northern Bere is alive and well, and many nobles have yet to clear their flags. The Republic does not recognise title in the Empire. I haven't even adopted aristocracy. Even if the nobles try to obey, there will always be confusion.

Oscar and Beck's military advisers returned to the Imperial Capital unaware of what was going on around here. The point is, Kamui tricked me.

Where the Imperial Army is no longer in the way, the Republic has begun specific actions to suppress it. The first thing I did was sift the aristocracy.

To the emissary of the aristocracy who has offered to obey, he put forward the honest and strict condition of acknowledging his subordination if he does not seek the title and agrees to work as a single civil servant or martial officer.

The aristocrats react as expected to this. He rebelled against the republic, and led his army under Uncle North. Almost 80% of the subordinate aristocracy of the Northern House adopted this action.

This caused the Northern Belgian army to swell from 10,000 to 30,000. The republican army is pulled up by Hildegand's troops, twelve thousand. With more than double the number, the Northern Belgian army begins marching toward Amphang.

He seems to have forgotten that the more numerous Imperial armies were in the same condition as the defeat.

In response to this movement of the Northern Belgian Army, the Republic ordered the Northern Border Lords and subordinate aristocrats, who promised unconditional subordination, to take control of the Northern Belgian Noble Territory, which had been vacated at the expense of the Army, and to send the Army out to intercept the Northern Belgian Army.

Immediate execution is the republican policy for northern domination.

The clashes between the two armies took place on the Ouf plain, which moved from Amphang to the East for five days. It was an ideal battlefield for the republican army, which predominated in horseback riding. This is the natural result because we tried to do this.

And the end of the battle is the victory of the republican army. An army led by a northern uncle with no military talent. Again, this is a natural consequence.

The Northern Uncle escaped the pursuit of the Republican Army and managed to escape into the eastern city of Schwanns. The soldier who obeys is in a miserable situation of 5,000.

Once the Republican Army has left the Northern Uncle alone, it will devote itself to sweeping the subordinate noble army. Because it would be more efficient to keep the Northern Uncle alive and gather it in one place to feed on it if we were to drive out enemy forces altogether.

Nobles who do not give up their resistance despite the obstinate pursuit of the republican army will eventually escape into Schwans, where the northern ambassador is.

The Republic is on target. All you have to do is scratch the rest.

An arrow from the walls is about to pour over the head of the republican army. But it never reached the soldiers, and half were burned by the flames that appeared in the universe, and half were blown away by fierce tornadoes.

"Now, Lutz! Kick it!"

Not because of this order of Maria, but Lutz's troops, who escaped the attack of the arrows, stormed towards the northern Bersers forming in front of the castle gate.

Break through here and you'll be in the castle. The fall of Schwanns is close to sight.

"Since when have I been Maria's exposé?

With all this complaining, Lutz cuts through the middle of the enemy formation. Forcefully invert the troops just before the castle gate. Also, run back through the middle of the enemy line this time.

Pokémon empty and void. There now, Maria and Ignaz's troops storm into the wrong place with Lutz's troops. While Maria and Ignatz chant leading the way.

"Blow it up!!

The magic unleashed by the two clashed against the castle gate through the middle of the enemy formation. A severe blast blows all around us.

"I'm free!!

A gap in the castle gate that was magically blown away. Don't get lost there, Maria will let the horses run.

"Too much tension."

Then he rushes after Ignaerts as well.

"" "It's Princess Wind Demon. Ahhh!!

From within the castle gate, in this battle with the northern uncle, the perfectly settled Maria's street name is screamed. Maria, who manipulates powerful wind attribute magic, was named once and for all for her appearance, which now came to be said to be completely adult and beautiful.

"Why is it all Maria?

Ignaz, who should be doing just the same, is enough to mess around a little.

Inside the castle gate, the wind is blowing as if a storm had come. It is the wind unleashed by the defensive magic [wind armor] that Maria is wrapped around. The arrows released fall to the ground without reaching Maria in the wind. A soldier can't even get close to waving his sword.

The soldiers of the Northern Belgian Army are an absolute defense without the art of breaking.

And Ignatz's fire attribute magic strikes at the gap where the soldiers are distracted by Maria. Soldiers blown away by a blast.

Soldiers who have been hit by two people sporadically before have lost their will in this blow.

Throw down one sword after another, and the soldiers, kneel down on the spot.

"What!? Quick! Give Maria more space!

Maria is unhappy when she says the victory has almost been decided.

"Maria's still good."

I don't see enough ignats either.

"Don't ask for battle in vain. There are still plenty of opportunities to fight ahead."

"Brother Kamui!

Maria rushes over to Kamui, where she appears. Maria still loves Kamui. Although I am now not in love, but close to Bracon.

"You did a good job. The white flag also rose from the castle. It's hard to separate."

"What about the Northern Uncle?

"You surrendered, so, in the meantime, you're coming out, aren't you?

This is why Kamui showed up early. I don't want to spend time in vain when it's settled. I just wanted the northern uncle to officially announce his surrender and move on to post-war processing.

A northern uncle popped out of the castle as Kamui thought. When you find Kamui, try to roll over and kneel before Kamui.

Kamui stared silently at the figure.

"You're King Kamui, right?

"Oh, yeah"

"Fritt Nortschlos Asmus. I admire the bravery of King Kamui and those under him. And when this happened, we stopped the futile resistance and honestly swore allegiance to King Kamui."

…………

He was a kamui who lost his voice to the thickness of his northern uncle.

"Come on, we can't even talk slowly in places like this. Please enter the castle."

"... oh. But before you do, the battle will come to an end. We'll talk about it after that."

"Oh, this is what I did. Everybody! You heard what King Kamui said!? Immediately finish the fight!

Kamui wasn't the only one stunned by the thick face of the northern uncle. So were the knights and soldiers who were fighting under the northern uncle.

Only in this respect did Kamui rejoice in the actions of his northern uncle when the post-war processing was likely to be a little easier thanks to it.

◇ ◇ ◇

The knights and soldiers, who actually saw and knew the attitude of the northern ambassadors and felt void in turning loyalty to them, responded to disarming in a truly cooperative manner, with no trouble-like trouble at all.

Castle takeover at the end of enemy disarming. After I give you the castle drawings, I'm not sending troops in to find out. After confirming that there were no ambushes, it was finally a meeting with Uncle North.

It was during the sight in the castle that became the venue.

Kamui sits in the castle lord's seat, and Maria sits next to him looking a little nervous. In front of it are the northern ambassadors and the women. And the face of the subordinate aristocrats who followed the Northern Uncle to the end.

It's a meeting as Republic soldiers tightly surround the perimeter. Every look has a color of tension and anxiety. Except the Northern Uncle himself.

"Again. I am delighted by this frit that I have been given the opportunity to worship the Great King."

"Aside from my heart, I guess you're the only one who can put that in your mouth"

"I mean it. And my family feels the same way."

Women lining up behind northern uncles. That's what Uncle North calls a family. In fact, Kamui knows that they are not the kind of people who can be called family, but the women who play the other night who were taking them all the way to the battlefield.

The real family is captured for a long time.

"... I've met your family, but they didn't seem happy."

"You shouldn't. But women and children don't know what's going on, do they? Please forgive me for being such a fool."

"Oh, I'm going to forgive them if they want to. Knowing they're being held hostage, they're a pathetic family with cold husbands and fathers who don't hesitate to attack."

I'm not really feeling sorry for you. It's just a dislike for northern uncles.

"It was...... because I had a duty to fulfill as a northern uncle. I was forced to kill myself."

"Oh, I can understand that"

"That's good"

Listening to Kamui, the northern uncle has a horrible face. He's in love, but he's pretty nervous inside.

"Well, first I want to ask those who refrain from behind. Where is your loyalty now?

Kamui turned to subordinate nobles who refrained from questioning behind him. But nobody tries to open their mouth. He seems to be worried about whether it's a good thing to open his mouth.

"It's a hassle to ask each and every one of you. Anyone who says that loyalty is still in the Empire, pull left."

One man stood up to this Kamui word and moved to the left.

"I'm still on my way. Well, then, whoever says he's loyal to the Republic, pull right over."

I guess I expected words to follow. Immediately many rose up and stopped to the right. Don't move. There's one left in the middle.

"You who didn't move"

Kamui spoke to one of them.

"... Ha"

"Why don't you move? Are you worried? Or another reason?

"… I am troubled"

"I see, can't you even make this decision? Well, good. Most people swear allegiance to our country, don't they? It'll be good."

From those who stopped to the right, a sigh of relief was heard.

"Now, I know how the nobles who were following you felt. What are you gonna do with yourself?

At the end of the division of subordinate aristocracy, Kamui turned to the Northern Uncle.

"Of course, my loyalty is to His Majesty. Who should serve? That's exactly what I figured out in this fight."

"You want me to believe that word? Imperial Requirements. I don't think the Northern Uncle, one of the Quadrilateral Uncles, will easily betray the Empire"

In fact, both southern and western uncles have betrayed us, but we don't need to bring this up here.

"I don't consider it a betrayal. It's the result of thinking about what we should do to make the world a better place."

"Unfortunately, I'm suspicious. You want me to show you something I can believe."

"... I see. So... no, it's something."

The northern uncle tried to say something, but didn't put it into proper words. Once that gaze was directed at Maria, I knew what I was going to say.

Seeing Kamui's words as a reminder, the northern ambassador tried to offer a woman to hold back. But Maria's presence prevented her from speaking of it. It was difficult to speak in front of the woman Maria, because the women behind her, compared to Maria, thought she was quite inferior.

"Nothing?

"... No, there is. We would like to put my daughter at your side."

"Your daughter. You think there were some of them?

There are plenty of side rooms besides the main room in the North Uncle. The number of children is inevitably high.

"I hope we can talk about that later."

"Right. Give me one of those girls..."

Kamui is showing a less than full attitude. As an upstate uncle, it was worth the excitement. Although it is a mistake.

"That's useless. And for my own protection, I can't trust a father who's willing to give his daughter away."

"Huh?"

Uncle North is taken aback by Kamui's words. I don't understand why this word is coming out of the past.

"More importantly, I have reason not to forgive you"

"Why is that!?

Word came out of Kamui's mouth that it was clearly unforgivable. You can't accept that easily. What awaits before accepting is death.

"I have one side room, too. I will not allow that side chamber to forgive you. Can I not forgive you?"

"Wait a minute, please. Why should I be resented by His Majesty's sideroom?

"The name of the side chamber is Theresa."

"Hia?

A barbaric voice leaks out of my northern uncle's mouth. No way, a name I didn't expect to hear on this occasion. Besides, it is also unexpected, such as being a side chamber of Kamui.

"You know why they resent me, right?

"Wow, I..."

"Don't talk about what you did, okay? I'll kill you."

"Whoa, forgive me. I was deceived."

"I'm telling you not to say anything! Imitation like insulting Theresa doesn't condone whoever it is!

This word is seen as a testament to Kamui's love for Theresa. Theresa is truly adored by Kamui, the nobles thought, starting with the Northern Uncle.

"Take the northern uncle, no, it's not even the northern uncle anymore. Take this man."

With Kamui's life, a soldier detains his northern uncle and pulls him out of sight. You gave up knowing about Theresa, Uncle North is almost irresistible.

"Ignaerts. Understand?

Where the northern uncle left, Kamui asked Ignaz.

"Mostly."

"I'll leave it to your discretion. Take him."

"Then the far right, next to it. Fly two. Next door. The second row is from right to second, next to it…"

"What!?" "Become!? What's going on?

The nobles referred to in the Ignaz will also be detained one after the other, just like the northern ambassadors. In their case, they are showing resistance for what they do not know why they are detained.

"Bribes, under your sleeve, what do you say in this case? Anyway, that's an unacceptable felony in the Republic. I mean, I can't welcome you as a republican bureaucrat who didn't show disgust at my attitude like I asked for it."

Kamui's attitude is to make sure. Anyway, I want to get everything done with less opportunity. Especially when it comes to recruiting your subordinates. It's urgent to rule the North where you got them.

"Well, then you moved to the left. I want you to tell me your name."

"... it's Ted Hansen"

Ted, who named him, is also a little confused. I know I tried. It was just that that criterion was different from Ted's thought of republican image.

"I still want you to ask me why I turn my allegiance to the Empire"

"My family is a nobleman of the Empire for generations. In my generation, you can't lose your ancestral loyalty."

"... that's all?

"It's important to me!

Ted makes his voice absurd to Kamui's reaction. Because I felt like I was being fooled about my thoughts.

"My family is also a nobleman of the Empire for generations. You know this?

"... let's not have it with Honfleet"

Honfleet's notoriety also reaches the region. It's a result of years of bad reviews.

"My grandfather was only proud to have served the Empire for generations. What's so different from you?

"I have devoted myself to the Empire"

"Surely my grandfather, and perhaps his predecessor before him, did not fulfil his noble responsibilities either. Because of this, the Honfleet family is notorious in the Empire"

"Yes."

"So listen, why don't the Honfleets criticize the royal family?

"What?"

"The emperor today has done nothing for the Empire or for the world. On the contrary, it does harm. And yet why are you still loyal to the Empire? Loyalty is what you have to keep pointing at, even if the other person is a bad person, once you point it at it?

"It is…, Your Majesty is not a bad man"

"Bad guy. I thought you told me who my side room was. Theresa was the emperor's milk sister and flank. That Theresa also gained the status of Emperor, pushing evil to exile when useless"

…………

Theresa's bad reputation also reaches the ears of local nobles. In other words, it is believed that Therese, who was nearby, was in charge of Claudia's dark areas. Listening to Kamui, Ted noticed this.

"What I'm asking you now is to give me some time. I want you to serve me. Because the idea of piercing loyalty even with death in front of me is what I prefer. But I'm not going to rush to conclusions. Loyalty is gained over time, otherwise you can't be trusted."

"... what to me?

Ted's feelings about asking this are already shaky. Those who seek to pierce Makoto are weak when they are shown Makoto.

"I want you to look at the Republic. I want you to meet someone from the Republic. To the heavy minister and to the people. At least I meant to be able to say it's a better country than the Empire. I want you to judge me on that."

And this stops. Not opening the chest collar, but Kamui is trying to show you everything about the Republic.

"... ok. Do as you wish."

"Thanks. Now, can the guy in the middle do the same? Troubleshooting doesn't mean you can't at least think about it."

"Yes. So please."

In fact, as Kamui said, there's plenty of room to think. I can feel the betrayal. But you can't die. It seems indecisive, but Kamui doesn't think it's evil to worry about it. I'm always worried about myself.

"Now, those on the right"

In Kamui's call, a fright floats in the faces of those who have stopped on the right. In this flow, no matter what we think, we make the wrong choice.

"Don't be frightened. I'm not going to punish you. You have decided to serve the Republic. So I won't hesitate. After a rigorous exam, I want you to work immediately, so you're going to do it."

The two have changed their language, but what they have said is reassuring. A relaxed atmosphere flows. They just don't understand the rigorous exams and the work the Republic wants. Working immediately means seeing a lot of hard eyes immediately.

"Well, next is the selection of knights and soldiers. Lutz, I asked you."

"What?"

Lutz is surprised when Kamui talks to him.

"What?"

Kamui is also surprised by the reaction of that Lutz.

"... what was that?

"Did you forget I told you to check it out if there was a dizzy guy in the fight?

You can't just fight during the war. I told Lutz to find capable knights and soldiers.

"It was. Oh, I remember."

But Rutz seems to have completely forgotten.

"You..., no way, you didn't kill all the strong guys, did you?

The same goes for Lutz when he meets a strong guy and his blood gets noisy. Compared to Kamui. Rutz's blood is supposed to be much thinner.

"No, that's not it. Probably fine."

"... who else was checking?

No, Kamui asked the others. But fortunately, there were those who raised their hands. This is Nathan, Rutz's deputy.

"Well, Nathan, please. You're the captain now."

"What!?

It was Rutz who raised his voice of surprise.

"It's obvious, right? Lutz is demoted. The Republic is meritocracy. I don't give lazy people high office."

"No, I, because I fought hard. Fine, it worked."

"After me and Ignaz."

Maria's been interrupting the conversation. I thought it would be a great opportunity to make fun of Lutz.

"Well, that's gonna be billy, isn't it?

"'Cause you're Billy, right?

"Maria, you!

"What!

"Shut up! I'm at work now!

Kamui yelled at the two people who were about to start a verbal fight.

"Oh, I'm sorry." "Sorry."

Those who line up in the front are taken aback to see this. Until earlier, the tension is not there.

However, this exchange became a slight but reassuring material for those who were going to serve the Republic.

The heavy ministers of the Republic, who thought it was like a ghost or something, are showing in front of them imitations like sibling fights. At once a sense of intimacy gushed into their hearts.

Of course, the republicans are no different from the general public.

The military forces that could only resist the Republic in the North disappeared on this day. Ahead, the Republic of Arten Kreutz will continue to take full control of the North.
