Reincarnation into the Barrier Master

One young man walks refreshingly down the long corridor of the Imperial Palace of Ramaron. From that foothold, which does not make you feel any stray, you can feel a man's full confidence and firm will.

Walking down the corridor is the Duke of Kanich, the commander in chief of the Imperial Army of Ramaron. voice from behind his steps as if to disturb him.

"Wait! Kanich!

He stops. He then slowly looks back at those who speak with a wrinkle between his eyebrows. There, General Carrier and Commander Almond, as well as all the other military commanders, were face-to-face.

They walk towards us slowly. And behind it comes the Chancellor's Madrin running at the same speed as a man walks, rocking a giant.

"What the hell are you going to do, Kenich?

General Carries asks slowly, in a calm voice, as he walks. But König replies by laughing with his nose.

"You don't know what you mean by that."

"Duke... why... did you take the liberty of receiving support from Crimeanas?"

The Chancellor, Madeleine, asks, breathlessly.

"You don't have to explain that. I didn't have enough food, so I got support from a certain place. That's all."

Kanich turns his heel and tries to leave the spot.

"Please wait! I don't think that Crimeanalism works in any way in return! At the very least, I want you to tell me under what conditions you supported food, and that's all!

Kanich looks back troublesome as he thinks Madlyn's loud voice is deafening.

"We have decided to welcome the grandchildren under Pope Juváncer as my wife. Furthermore, we welcome His Holiness Cassel, the nephew of His Holiness the Pope, as his adopted son."

"My wife... is. What happened to your wife, Master Jerifa? Besides, I didn't hear the Chancellor say anything like welcome to His Majesty for adoption!

"I played to Her Majesty the Crown Princess and Her Majesty the Emperor, and it was with immediate forgiveness, until I replied that way. My wife was separated. I've been married for three years. I couldn't have a child. It would be a good opportunity. Are you sure? Now, I'm ready, so excuse me."

"Ready? Kanich, when the hell are you going to attack Agarta?

General Carries raises his feverish voice. In contrast, Kanich answers with his eyes round.

"When? It will be decided soon! As much as I'd like to go out now... Well, there's a lot to prepare for, so I'll be out in a week or ten days at the earliest."

Kanich sends his gaze to the commanders who are holding back behind Kalliers.

"You too, get ready with your intentions!

With that said, Kanich started walking again, refreshingly. The Chancellor, Madeleine, fronted in a deep exhalation.

"What... Does the Duke intend to let the Empire reign over Crimeanas..."

"... I see. Könich has long used Crimeanalism's desire to deepen his friendship with our empire. Indeed, König is one who will be in the family of His Majesty the Emperor. A wedding with him could be a wish from Crimeanalism. Don't let this get him an even stronger back shield. But I can't solve the story of welcoming your adopted son to Your Majesty... Why would you do that? Why did His Majesty the Empress and His Majesty the Emperor allow such a story...?

General Kalliers stares down the hallway where Kanich walked away with his face stretched.

"... Either way, the Empire will be subject to interference from Crimeanalism. The Church... is not that sweet people"

With a flashing look, Chancellor Madeline shrugs.

"Chancellor, that's a story if Kanich's operation goes well."

"What? Did the General think... that the Duke's operation would fail...?

"No, I just hope so. I'm guessing Kanich has manoeuvres well enough, too. I will let you see the trend of battle while protecting the Imperial Capital."

General Carries nods as one convinced. At that time, in the palace, a warm spring breeze blows in, but those gathered there, below Prime Minister Madrin, could not afford to feel its warmth.

A few days later, within the palace of the Imperial Ramaron, a gorgeous ball was held. The venue is filled with vibrantly dressed nobles under the seats of the Empress and Emperor. They look really fun. It should also have been announced on this occasion that the Empire would again invade the Agarta State, that its Commander-in-Chief would receive the Duke of Könich in office and, furthermore, that the marriage of Könich and his adopted son to His Majesty the Emperor would be welcomed from the Pontifical Clan of Crimeanas.

The assembled nobles did not question the victory of the Empire and its subsequent prosperity. The emperor had announced that, as one of this celebration of weddings and adoptions, sufficient food support had been received from the pope of Crimeana. The Empire can't lose as long as there's food. That's what everyone believed.

The protagonist of this ball was Kanich. He continued to receive greetings from the nobles pushing like waves, with a full grin. On the other hand, he also remembered that from now on, he would identify which nobles were likely to join his faction and be useful.

When the ball was over, he was finally able to take a break. He sighs as he moisturizes his throat with a drink offered by his men, who are serving as deputy.

"Those aristocrats have a good nose. Those who have never looked to me before, wave their tails and approach me."

"I can't help it. Whatever the Commander may say, he is the one who can welcome the grandchildren of His Holiness Pope Crimeana to his wife. The world's largest religious organization, Crimeanalism, is behind it, so it's only natural that the nobles want to get closer."

The deputy man, without losing his posture, continues his words.

"However, not a single cabinet member and military official participated in today's event"

"Oh, leave me alone. It would be a hit on me anyway. Well, it seems like they haven't said anything about being busy getting ready for battle."

Kanich laughs at Niyaniya and looks at the drinks in the glass.

"The other commanders and cabinet members still do not seem convinced to adopt His Majesty's family under His Holiness the Pope"

"Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu. Master Cassel is 8 years old. Dear Cassel, there will be nothing you can do alone. Take it to the Imperial side. Naturally, so is my wife."

"I see... I'm relieved to hear that. It's an unexpected strategy for a mediocre person like me."

"Master Cassel welcomes you first to Her Majesty the Crown Princess. There, Your Majesty, you will be raised immediately. My wife naturally educates me. The demands from these two will force the Pope just as well to shake his head vertically. If we take in Crimeanalism, the Empire will not labor and become the best nation in the world. Humph, you're really efficient, aren't you?

"Actually, it's a brilliant strategy. It's a hat off."

The deputy man greets with respect. That's when the door to the room was knocked and one man came into the room. It was the Alice Guard of Crimeana. Kanich rises out of his chair, hands wide open this man, and greets him with great admiration.

"Oh! This is Bishop Alice Guard! I didn't even get to say hello, and I'm sorry."

Alice Guard has a soft grin.

"No. The star of the day is the Duke. Sometimes you won't be able to move in these events. I fully understand that, so please don't worry."

"No, if you say so, it will help"

"I will sail for the Crimeana Nation the day after tomorrow. Your Majesty has announced today the wedding of the Duke and Vieille. I must give you this news as soon as possible, under the Holy Father. I think the wedding day will be after the crusade, but I look forward to the good news."

"Yeah, keep your neck long and wait. Perhaps Agarta's crusade won't take long. By the end of spring at the latest, I think we will be able to announce the occupation of Agarta"

"That's right, you're said to be the pillar stone of the Empire. How reliable."

"Regards, Empire and this König"

"Welcome."

The two men smiled and held each other's hands.

Two days later, in the morning, König left the Imperial Capital with an Imperial Army Horse Rider. The voice of the people dropping it off and the sound of the army bands pounding was echoing throughout the wide royal capital. In the midst of that hustle and bustle, General Carries, entrusted with the defense of the Imperial Capital, had quietly missed this outpost from a room in the palace. And in another room, the Chancellor, Madeleine, also missed this appearance with an anxious face.

The exuberance of this royal capital could also be heard on ships that were leaving the port. Listening to its hustle and noise, Bishop Alisgaard was staring at the palace of the Empire, which was slowly becoming far away.

"Grace us, O my Lord, and pay us. And destroy evil, and pay..."

Alice Guard looked up to heaven and offered a devout prayer to the Lord God, Crimeana.
