Episode 180: New American Lords Are Busy

Mar 20, 7450

"Are you all right?

Al sounds worried.

"Not at all yet. If I rest, that's all I'll lose."

Mizchi replied as he tightened the band of Al's armor.

In the dark mansion still before sunrise, Ebonite armor dullly reflects the light of the lighted demonic props.

"Mm, I guess so. My sister-in-law was pregnant for a while... but please don't push me."

Saying so, Al tightened Mizuchi's band of armor.

- I just want to appraise it every day and record changes in status, but you can't even say that...

Only for a moment did they face each other, and when they slapped Mizuchi's back, they went outside, still under the dark sky.

"Well, let's go for a run!

"Yes!"

Sending a greeting with one hand up to the squire, who was hitting the mansion guard at the sleepless turn, the two began to run shoulder to shoulder.

"Ko, are you ascending to the Marquis!? Congratulations, my lord!

A woman who should not normally expose her emotions speaks up in a rare and excited way.

This is the Lords Office of the Administration.

Al had a meeting with the secretary, Associate Duchess Insenga, in conjunction with his report.

"Oh. Thanks"

"Oh? I don't seem very happy...?

"No, that's not true. Pleasure."

"Are you worried about something?

If you hear those words, it's not funny as Al.

"It's full of worries."

- Why can't you figure that out?

It is more obvious than to see fire that sooner or later you will find yourself in a human resource dilemma if you take possession of each Earl Territory of Lancel, Dressler and Ellers... such a headache as a lord when you think of a future that will often be distressed.

I just wanted you to share that feeling.

"My lord, for a while now, people will be here, so I don't know if you need to worry about that."

"That's what I'm saying..."

Al has a sinister face to the secretary who talks in a good mood.

And

"Count Lancel territory...... no, twelve in the Midwest Dart region, ten in the Midwest Dart region and nine in the East Dart. You'll need at least this much nobility."

and continued.

- And within 20 years! Twenty years, in only twenty years, thirty-one nobles... Oh, is one baron buried because there is Andersen in the central dart?

Swallow the words long enough and stare at the secretary as he stares.

but Associate Duchess Insenga recieves, with a cool face, "It's about the matter, but I don't think it's such a big problem," he said.

"… The Count, the lord of every region, deserves my concurrence, but there aren't enough baron-class tokens for ten, and not enough for seventeen lords to entrust the village to. This does not include me or the Ser who assists me under fatigue. Besides, nobility, anyway, requires close to a hundred servants. This isn't a big problem, is it?

Blood vessels begin to float in Al's temples.

"Yeah, well..."

But the secretary looks like he said where the wind blows when he sees Al like that.

This attitude is not funny on boulders.

but as for Al, he has nothing more to chill his head off than knowing his usual secretary.

The secretary he knows doesn't have the optimistic character to say this even though he has no basis.

"Hmm. Is it also some good way?

If there is one, I want you to say it immediately.

"First of all, I am a lord's nobleman, but in fact, a lot of sales have already come"

Associate Duchess Insenga said with a faint face.

"Selling in?"

Al's one-eyebrow rises.

"Yep. That number is seven at the moment, but this must be because the touch of a gathering of people that Your Excellency has arranged has not yet penetrated. Essentially, Heavenly Heavenly...... this is a sale about adult children from the following barons who keep the villages and cities beside the Wang capital, so it's a subtle place in human resources, but still this number in this short period of time. Ladies and gentlemen, you have been sent a letter directly until you went out of your way to use the early horse. At least the intentions will be real."

Associate Duchess Insenga, who returned to her usual faceless appearance, like when reporting on her work, began to talk unexpectedly about what was happening to Al today.

"I didn't hear you say that."

Al says with an unexpected face.

Before I went to exorcise the dragon, as of the end of the other month, there was absolutely no such story, so I couldn't help it.

Especially since it was at the end of last year that the King was played and recognized the touch of the gathering of people, starting with the construction man and husband, it is too early at that point in anything geometric.

but it was certain that quite a bit of time had passed now.

That said, it's not like a lot of time has passed, so as Al, I have to ring the alarm of caution in my own brain.

"Will you be vigilant of the intercessors from His Majesty?

……

Al snorts slowly at the question of the insenga.

- I don't care about places like this... No, you know what I said?

Al organizes his head in retrospect of Insenga's attitude from earlier.

"I haven't even heard from Mizuchi."

"That would be natural. I haven't even reported it to your wife."

"What?"

"All communications have arrived within the last few days… I am not talking about having to rush two days a day, and I heard that your Excellency will be back soon."

"Right."

Al replied with a disgruntled look.

I thought to him, "Nevertheless, there was a sale, and I don't care how many cases there were."

"I'm sorry. How is your wife doing these days, because... she seems to come covering her stomach... something I have experience with too... sorry. From now on, we will report this matter to you or your wife immediately."

Insenga bows her head hard to say.

Finally, it occurred to me that there had been no reports from Mizuchi or Al about the birth control.

For that reason, he looked sorry from the bottom of his heart.

"Ah... sorry. I haven't told you yet, Mizuchi's pregnant."

Al also said with a look of sorry.

Hearing the words, Insenga rose from the couch of the reception.

"Ooh... ooh"

"Oh?"

Though stuck in words trying to say something, Insenga comes to the executive desk where Al sits.

"Congratulations! Now your territory is safe! Congratulations!

Al glanced louder, brighter than the ascension to the Marquis earlier, and more into the way he rode out to his desk.

"Ooh. Thanks."

"No, wanting a successor is a natural feeling as a subordinate. I would like to congratulate you with all my heart. Congratulations!

"Oh well. Thanks."

Al manages to respond, albeit in the face of Insenga's momentum.

"Let me be honest with you, however, I was anxious and couldn't help but... No, not to the abilities or personality of your Excellency or wife. We were of different races, weren't we? Well... now it's a struggle to get over it."

"Oh, I'm sorry"

"I was really worried. Your Excellency has said that he does not intend to marry a new wife..."

"Oh, I guess. Actually..."

Al told them that a new Second Lady would be established, and that the other party was the daughter of an officially recognized king.

"Oh! How delightful! Congratulations. Aren't you going on! All you have to do is give your pregnant wife peace of mind!

"Yeah......"

Al's expression contains only a little bitter against the insenga he rejoices in letting go.

"Hey, and you say your opponent is a fume. Now, Your Excellency has no more weaknesses! It's perfectly safe."

"Weaknesses..."

"No, it was a weakness. Your Excellency was told he would soon be independent. It's a big weakness not to have a heir to that kind of person. There was a secret whisper among those who worked for our administration."

"Oh, really..."

"Yeah, that's right. I could not say with a voice that would go into the ears of His Excellency or his wife on a boulder, but they all feel the same!

"Oh my God, everyone..."

Al has a look that includes a rush.

As far as he was concerned, he had just picked up and showed his rebel buds quickly, or he thought he had gained trust in the precincts, the carriage railroad, etc., and gained even greater trust by defeating the dragon.

It was certainly a great sense of security and trust in the territory.

Only a few days after taking office, he has full control of the Knights, a military force in the territory.

We defeated the rebels so quickly that there was no more, and the judgment showed a great deal of weight and the number of those on death row was incredibly minimal.

Hunting out “nobody” and criminals who were nesting in the slum district, at least the security of Beglitz, the territorial capital, saw a significant improvement.

Tax revenues were also raised by conducting inspections throughout the territory.

That made me wonder if I would buy the aversion of the lords who had been smoking sweet juice until now, but I started laying the carriage railroad before that sentiment was bred and quickly showed its usefulness as well as its future.

It is also said to have raised a major handle in the previous battle, and this time it is a dragon exorcism.

Plus, they're just bringing back into the territory as loot to a number of fine demonic stones and precious scales that add up to three digits, plus three occupied villages under the Dabus force zone.

That's not all.

I now have an almost complete understanding of how this land is run and the administrative handling that goes with it, until the specialist personnel can also point to mistakes and coarseness enough to wrap their tongues around it.

No matter what anyone says, there is no such thing as someone who can do all this after less than a year in office.

But among the officials, starting with Insenga, that's not how it ends.

There is no inheritance and the only spouse is heterogeneous.

It was only natural that Al, as a lord and as a monarch, seemed to have great flaws.

If something happens and Al dies, it's a very brittle system.

After Al's death, even as he freshly served his spouse Mizuchi, Mizuchi's own temper was an adventurer who was originally on the same path as Al's, and if Al's death was a death in war, he could go to vengeance on his own, and, worse still, none had the power to contain it.

In addition, it would be a war death, but it would be a disease death, but an assassination, but if Al died, Mizchi could remarry, but worst of all, her race is a rare dark elf around here.

Not a single person, except for the dark elves and other Mizchi himself, who have a noble place in the Kingdom of Lomberto in an attempt to find a new spouse from within the country.

What's the matter? It's more obvious than seeing fire that you have trouble inheriting.

Even if Mizuchi often succeeded Al, he would be obsessed by the kingdom, and Mizuchi would be good and dismissed, or worse, assassinated and the West Dirt would just return to heaven.

It is difficult to think of the incompetence of the deputy who will come next, but I have nothing but anxiety than not knowing who he is.

Depending on the character of the deputy and the people he brings in, he can easily replace the secretary's neck.

Not to mention officials who have no role.

The West Dirt region has never been more brittle on the institutional side, including her.

In addition to Mizchi's pregnancy there, he says he will marry a second wife of his kind.

As secretary, as the number two in territorial management, this news would have been more than happy if it had been insenga.

Hearing these circumstances, Al once again bit his umbilical on his sweetness.

But there is nothing I can do about it now, and I see a solution in less than a year.

"... huh.... My lord!

"Ah, oh. What?"

"So, have you chosen a nanny? With all due respect, Sir Value's family is already a large child, and I was wondering if you would like to make an offer to Sir Dannick, Sir Barson, etc…"

"Huh? Why?

"Why, therefore, can your wife return to the military or executive service after giving birth? That's what I said when I asked..."

"Mm-hmm. Well, there's no reason for Mizuchi to retire from the army. But the kids were gonna grow up together?

"Both of us, your Excellency too?!?"

"Of course. When I was born, Mizuchi and I would focus our affairs only on important decisions, and we would greatly reduce the volume, so we could make time."

It is a natural answer if you try Al.

We're going to get permission for the Magic Increasing Act until birth.

And now that he has become a great aristocrat and fallen within range to the Marquis, he also thinks that Heggard and Farn will deny the boulder.

"No, but..."

"But what?

"When your wife gave birth, no, after a little while you gave birth, wouldn't you like to welcome your new wife? It's hard to say, but I think it would be nice to have a lot of inheritance..."

"Mm-hmm, that way..."

- Well, I know I have to have kids with that girl too...

"That's right. That being said, it would be difficult to break up, so whatever it is for the first few months... anything like a baby or toddler can be very handy. That's what it is."

"Right..."

- I was wondering if you were getting that far?

Al remembers his infancy.

- Whoa, am I special? I didn't know when your sister... was a baby, and Zed and Becky were in Sonia... what happened to Mun after Barkud's squire, slaves, and Islard... I hardly remember because I wasn't interested...

In fact, Al also put a corresponding burden on his parents, but in addition to being a reincarnator, Mun was there, and I'm pretty sure that burden was smaller than other families.

- Well, in some cases, infancy may be called nanny. It would be quicker to plant it, but of the three or four I wouldn't be able to do it on a boulder and......

"So I need a nanny. In order to make a near-year-old friend, let alone if your wife does not enter your family... or if she is to marry a second lady, in your household..."

"No, but we have a maid of residence, and family ordinances have experience raising children..."

- Think about it. There's no room for her. No, if you crush one room or so......

Al starts to think about the shame, but Insenga cuts it off.

"Well, the birth itself is still a little further away, so if you keep that in mind now... than that, my lord"

"Oh."

"I will return to that, but it is possible that some of the seven people who did apply also included intermediaries from His Majesty. However, I don't think all seven of them are on the boulder. Why don't they just put it through the face?

"Mmm... right. And..."

- You can use Lie Breaking (Diect Rai).

"Something?

"Basically, I'm a" railway line "construction worker, so I thought if I taught you what to teach, you'd throw it out of your territory."

"Right. But isn't that a little too much?

"Well, yeah."

"So I have a plan."

"Proposal? Say it."

"Yes. With the expansion of your territory, it is obvious that you will shortage of talent sooner or later, so isn't it also in your hands that even villages close to Dabus will be left to you? You'll be busy opening up patrols, preparing for Dabus attacks, etc."

It was an honest argument.

If you go into a peripheral village, you can't help but travel like that.

Travelling within the Dart Plains in small numbers, in itself, involves considerable danger, even if it brings in slaves and other people who become limbs.

"Mm... you sure do"

"Shall we? It won't even come true to move effortlessly from the village..."

"Okay. It would be a good idea to accommodate such a proposal. But we're gonna do it right through the face."

"That's natural."

Al raised his rating for Insenga by a step.

"And. Why don't you ask the Marquis of Webdos, the ruler of the Jindal Peninsula, where your Excellency is from? What can I say, if you are a nobleman in the province, be quite likely to have a single child. If it's about ten or twenty people, why don't you send them over right away?

"Mm... sure. I didn't even think about it..."

"And my name is?

"No, my servants and slaves when I went to this land... oh, not like the nobles"

"Yeah. Why don't you just say it"

"That's right..."

"Well, we have accumulated the verdict as well... well, please leave in three days"

"Huh?"

"It would be better if we hurried to choose this kind of thing over time, and if your Excellency went directly to ask for it, it would convey the seriousness, and it would be appropriate to be polite."

"... I don't know if I have to go out again"

"Something?

"No, it's nothing"

"Really? Then please return within two weeks at the latest"

"Nishiyu..."

"Is that possible?

"Oh."

- If this happens, do you want me to stretch my legs all the way to Barkud?

"And bring some more. 'Cause there's always not much."

"... right. Ask to select a squire."

"Accepted."

- Tell him not to go or tell him to go... but come on. Me, I've slept in my home bed since this year... and whenever I go out, I always rush my horse.... What did you say about this? Oh, what kind of a black environment is that? Even though I don't pay overtime or travel allowance...... Then at least you want to grow up with your own hands, with us as kids.
