My sister and I moved around the world until I unified the continent to protect my sister.

Early summer of the continental calendar year 423.

Different things were going well around me.

A small but additional number of elf slaves had not yet been handed over to the church, and the expedition, which waited for the snow melt to send them out, brought back a large quantity of dragon material.

Materials are sent to Mr. Listella in turn, besides scales (candles), fangs (kibbutz) and nails (claws) between 150 and 250 million Astres per bottle. 10 million astr a kilo of bone. With one eye for 13.2 billion astols, I have a huge gold coin rolling in.

Even Listella just did. It takes time to sell the material, so only part of it is still on hand, but according to Listella's assessment, the dragon's material will amount to a total of AST 121.147 billion.

They say the kingdom's state budget is about AST 150 billion a year, so it's an approaching amount.

Literally different digits, the dragon is too awesome......

The dragon's eyes were bright red as blood, then crystal clear, a very beautiful object.

Yet it is a huge lump of ruby.

I was driven by the urge to keep it with me for a moment, but when I asked my sister if she wanted it, she just didn't seem interested, so I sold them both.

I've never had enough money.

The deal in Viscount Parklen territory got Linne out of the first meeting and the elf side, but it seems to have started well for what it's worth.

It was not sneaky to hide himself and get him to pass through the human habitat, so he moved through the woods to get him to the site.

Because of this, my right hand healed. I traveled with Rene and two sisters.

It's a valuable force for both of us to collect, but we can afford it a little now, and that's thanks to Lynne for her hard work hunting dragons.

After a month or so of traveling back, the two of them seemed to have a lot of fun on the road, and they came to thank me for reporting back to me.

The two of you talking to me on the road, Lynne seemed to have a lot of fun, as well as Mr. Renne.

Looks like I've been able to stretch my feathers quite a bit, and I'm glad too.

Mr. Renne can't deal with me normally, which is still a human man, to the extent that if Lynne is next door, we can talk a little further away.

As long as you keep your distance, you can make fun of it for once, but you often react freakishly to my little tricks.

Drop your gaze like you threatened to see each other, and touch it aside, just reaching out and bluing your face to shrink. I just took something, and I could harden myself up.

I guess the trauma won't go away easily, either, after all those terrible eyes.

Eating the dried fruit I got as a souvenir, I prayed that this sisters would be happy from now on...

On the other hand, if you are a mine operator, the emigration of Mr. Elves to the woods has also increased steadily, with reports coming the other day of over 130,000 people.

While everything was going well (or less), it was on July 3rd that the summer sun grew stronger when an urgent alert jumped in from Mr. Listella that a war had broken out between him and his neighbours in the southeast of the kingdom...

According to the first report sent to me by Mr Listella, the war took place on the 22nd of June, more than 10 days ago.

It's not fast enough in this world where communication is underdeveloped, but what a slow time.In 10 days, things will be completely different.

In the meantime, a report states that the Royal Cydal Army has entered across the river at the border.

I rushed to open the map of the continent that Eina gave me and run my eyes

Six countries, on a horizontal continent shaped like dumplings (Gyoza), surrounded by the sea on all sides.

The Great Mountains run east and west through the north, and to the south, the Great Forest, inhabited by Mount Linneda Elves, stretches out.

In the east there is a large forest with a species called forest elves, in the south there is a large wetland with swamp elves.

It is doubtful how accurate the measurement technique will be because it will also be underdeveloped, but it can still grasp the general positional relationship.

The Markham Kingdom, where we are, is the western edge of the continent.

There are three countries bordering, the Kumsi Kingdom beyond the Great Mountains to the north.

The east borders the Great River flowing from the Great Mountains, bordering two neighbouring countries in the Upper and Lower Basins.

To the north is the Idra Empire. The South has attacked the Cydal Kingdom this time.

The southeastern part of the kingdom, bordering the Kingdom of Sidal, is where most noblemen were crushed in last year's civil war and the map of forces has changed dramatically.

Did they poke at that mess?

I'll think about it, but the information and my knowledge are too little to come up with.

For now, the battlefield is southeast and the mine is northeast, so there will be no immediate direct impact, but if it is a war, soaring food prices are a must.

In the meantime, contact Nina and have her move to secure food.

... What can I do with the rest?

Consolidate mine protection just in case?

The Elves have a lot of bow masters, but they don't really like to argue. We would fight to protect ourselves, but to hear about Lynne's village when it was attacked, it seems very weak for hostage operations and such.

What makes me quite free at the moment is the influence of Eina and Listella, the Grand Duke of Faros and Count Negroste connected to it.

If the Kingdom of Markham were gone and turned into a different country, the slavery of the elves that I brought to abolition would be revived because of it, and even this mine doesn't know what would happen.

... should I help the military in this country? But how?

I don't think you can accept an elf prostitute, and I don't want to let you out either.

Different thoughts circle through my head, but it's just confusing and inconclusive.

There was only one report of the war in the first place.

It's a skirmish, so the fight may be over by now.

Such optimistic hope comes to mind, but that's no good.

I have a responsibility to protect the lives of hundreds of thousands of Elves and my sister.

Just enough to always assume the worst.

If you have to abandon this mine and escape into the Great Forest?

But we haven't grown enough talent to be self-sufficient in the Great Forest yet, and can we accept all the Elves, no matter how vast the Great Forest is, over 450,000 people?

Already the number of villages is approaching 1000, the density there. How can three to four times this exceed forest production?

The Great Forest itself is also connected to neighbouring countries beyond the Great River, so if it enters there too, the population density will diminish, but that is an area where security is not ensured.

Villages may be attacked by adventurers from neighboring countries.

Now he's going to be dominated by pessimistic thoughts on the contrary, but he shakes his head that this isn't good either, strikes down his thoughts, and for now, after informing Lynne and the key members of the pharmacists, he decides to wait for the continuation of the report.

Eina of Wangdu said, 'I have an urgent matter to attend to. Please come to the King's Capital immediately' was received the day after...
