Lesson 14: From Eastern Diplomacy

"What do you say, Lucanos? What's Nia like?

"Right... amazingly good, I can say"

The next day after Nia's physical checks, Elquille called Lucanos to ask him about Nia's educational progress.

Then came word from Lucanos praising Nia.

"Well... did you often get the impression that you were scolding Nia?

"That kid stretches better. I can honestly fix what's wrong, because I'm a good girl."

By the way, Lucanos was in charge of educating Elquille...

I grew up with praise rolls at that time.

For if I scolded him, I had seen that he would hurt Elquille's self-esteem, and that he would persevere and stop taking it seriously.

The more praise Erkühl praises, the better he puts it on track, the more age he holds with "Sassuel," "Sassuer Majesty," the better he gets, the harder he tries, and the results he leaves.

It was Lucanos' idea that teaching methods, that people should fit together.

Lucanos sips a cup of coffee before continuing.

"The correction of the Christian language has progressed considerably. You can now read and write in Christian, too, there. Lemurian is also easy to speak."

"You're only a few months old and you're not good. Except for studying?

"Right...... you're surprisingly good at dancing. Reflex nerves, motion vision has something to keep an eye on. But more than that...... the movement is precise and accurate. A martial arts guide said the ability to keep poking at the same place is great…"

"Hmm... I see. Maybe next time you should show Carolina."

Anyway, the dance you need to live as a nobleman or...

He seems to have the martial arts talent necessary to live as a samurai.

"I just haven't educated her in history or politics, military or argument, so I still don't know how good she'll grow up to be. So far, it's just a good kid…"

I know that.

As for Erkühl, I would be satisfied now if I only knew the fact that Nia is not incompetent.

Just because I was incompetent, I wouldn't throw it away... but the tension drops.

It's something I'd like to think it would be nice to pick it up if possible.

"Any sign of being a Demon?

"Especially. Only to a girl, you don't look like me. … I don't know what's going to happen."

Not to mention that the Demons (Nightmare) are dangerous to the dark clouds.

but it is certain that it is an unknown being, and not without danger at all.

Large and adorable chimpanzees at the young beast are also ferocious like leopards if they become adults.

Neither Nia nor the likelihood of… can be denied.

Whatever it is, the course should be checked.

"By the way, Lucanos, something seems to be bothering you lately... are you okay?

"Yeah... well... you know what I mean?

"Bye. How long do you think we've been dating?

Lucanos has been on his side ever since the time Elkür's heart came on.

For Elquille, things like parents.

Naturally, if Lucanos has any troubles... we'll see soon enough.

"... we had a fight with Farth recently, didn't we?

"There it is."

"So... the people who were taken to Farth returned or temporarily returned, right? At that time... I checked to see if there were any acquaintances... because I wasn't there... just a little..."

"With that said... you served in the battle thirty years ago."

The previous emperor Hadrianus III has fought twice against the kingdom of Falls and has been defeated twice.

The first time was eighty years ago...

Multiplying the civil unrest that broke out in the Farse kingdom, he attacked the Farse kingdom.

At first, this ambush gained much territory with great success...

He put an end to the civil unrest in the kingdom of Fars and defeated the new reigning king, Sassan VIII, at the age of twenty.

It was deprived of all the territory it had acquired, and it was to pay compensation.

Then fifty years later, that is thirty years ago.

The kingdoms of Bulgaron and Fars have jointly attacked the Lemurian Empire.

Even at this time Hadrianus III was a great defeat...

Since then, it has been decided to pay the Fars Kingdom a substantial annual contribution.

And in these two battles, many long-eared (elves) were taken to the kingdom of Farth.

Two-thirds were freed by ransom payments...

A third will not be freed. They were to be held in the Farse kingdom.

By the way, at this time, Lucanos was captured by the Phallus army.

And they told me to wash up and talk about the intelligence activities of the Mesian Church, tortured me...

So they broke my groin.

"Who do you know... who?

"I'm Helena, the second daughter of the Valerius Korg family. It was my... fiancée"

The clergy's wife belt is permitted in Mesianism.

Because the princess (Medium), the supreme authority of Mesianism, inherited her pedigree.

The idea is that if the princess (Medium) is good, other priests would be good too...

Sexual activity is considered evil, but Messianism encourages when it comes to getting married and having more children.

"The Valerius Korg family...... one of the Seventy Seven Saints, a division of the Valerius family, the Korg family? I mean, pure blood... and a woman."

The population of the Long-Eared (Elves) is small, as are Lemuria and Farth.

If it turns into pure blood, it's even worse.

And...... they both especially want women.

If you think about sexual intercourse as the manufacture of a child and splitting it up…

There is no need for men and women to be one-on-one.

Any number of men can conceive a woman at the same time...

Female foetuses, as a rule, are attached to one baby, one. (Except for twins and triplets...)

In short, as a country, you may have fewer testicles, but you want a lot of uterus.

If you captured female long-eared (elves) in the war, it would also capture pure blood...

Don't give it back, it's natural to take it home.

Most importantly, being sexually enslaved... can't be pure blood.

Whether Lemuria or Phallus, if it is pure blood, it will be treated accordingly because it is aristocratic.

It is normal to be assigned to a pureblooded single-height ear clan (elf) man.

By the way...

Only the Long-Eared (Elves) are allowed to leave the battlefield in the Lemurian Empire.

The Long Ear Clan (Elves) are highly physically capable and have no gender differences in spiritual skills, so both men and women can fight well.

The Beast tribe (Warbeast) is also highly capable, so Beast tribe (Warbeast) women can also play an active role in the battlefield...

Basically, fighting on the battlefield is honorable, and sometimes it is the work of the ruling class, and beast (warbeast) women are not allowed to fight in the Lemurian Empire.

In the Western Beast Nation, there appear to be some female knights.

Well, still, the battlefield is a man's world.

"Hmm, you're likely to be the wife of a Farth aristocrat even if you're alive. … but in the war ahead, we also made a pact to temporarily return to the country, and in fact many of the long-eared (elves) who crossed to Fars, who had already built a family and could not return to Lemuria..."

It was only recently that the long-eared (elves) of Lemuria, imprisoned by Pharus and married to the Pharus nobility, came to greet the parents and brothers of Lemuria with their husbands and children.

"... you're most likely dead"

"Yep... well... it's something I gave up once... so I let it go, but not so sad. I knew it...... If you're alive, one or two of the letters won't surprise you."

The correspondence between the long-eared family (elves) imprisoned by Farth and the long-eared family (elves) in Lemuria is not so rare.

It is likely that the letter will not come, which means that you have already traveled to the kingdom of God.

"Well... I'll try to find some of mine too. You want to make it clear you're alive or dead, right? You and that woman's family... by the way, what kind of woman are you?

"My hair was gray... and I was a strangely big breasted person for a long-eared (elf). You were a pious, gentle, strong woman with sword arms."

"Big breasts, hey..."

I don't really trust what the Long-Eared (Elves) say about "big breasts".

For everyone above C is treated with large breasts.

Some people have long-eared (elves) claiming to have huge boobs even in B.

Elves are the default for Pechapai.

"But, Your Grace. I'm a woman of the past. I have decided to live in a world of faith.... I'm really glad you're looking for Helena... but please, give priority to your administration"

"I know that... by the way, that's a different story... do you mind if I give you the cathedral design before? I'd appreciate it if you'd reply."

Cathedral… refers to the building in which the Archdiocese of Nova Lemuria, or Archbishop of Nova Lemuria, is located, where Erkür asked Titos to rebuild it.

Ageing is remarkable, so we're going to be rebuilt.

Already the budget and the design have been looked at by Elquille and permission has been given.

All that was left was for Lucanos to say yes.

"No problem with that. I was going to say it today...... you should have mentioned it first. I'm sorry."

"No, I don't mind. I'm not in any hurry.... And what was it? Something I need to tell you...... Aah!! I remember. King Ederna broke down."

"King Ederna?

"Oh, this just got in my ear."

Kingdom of Ederna.

It is a western Messianic country on the Aperian Peninsula, west of the Lemurian Empire.

The main ethnic groups are the Beasts (Warbeasts), and the monarchs are the Leopards of the High Beasts (Warbeasts).

"Do you know who the new king is?

"For once, it seems that the pro-Lemrian Tiudimir will take power.... but still young. The anti-Lemurian forces could grow. We just have to see how this goes."

"… First of all, the alliance will be maintained."

The Kingdom of Ederna and the Lemurian Empire are in alliance.

Rather, it may be better that the Kingdom of Ederna is formally under the sovereignty of the Lemurian Empire, etc.

The historical relationship between the Kingdom of Ederna and the Lemurian Empire is a little complicated.

Time goes back two hundred years.

On the Aperian Peninsula, the Western Lemurian Empire survived.

But the Julianos family in West Lemuria were almost cut off, and the last thing left was a mixed-eared (half-elf) child named Lemuros - ironically the same name as the Lemurian founder.

The Emperor's throne of the Lemurian Empire has been handed down from generation to generation by the Yulianos boys of the Pureblooded Long Ear Clan (High Elves).

Therefore the reign of the mixed emperor had a weak legal basis.

Also...... the young Lemros were being manipulated by nobles from behind and the politics of the Western Lemlian Empire was a state of confusion.

It was the Eastern Lemurian Empire that dissatisfied me with that.

So...

The Eastern Lemurian Empire forced the Western Lemurian Empire Lemuros to withdraw.

but I don't respond to the exit for the most part. (Rather, nobility manipulating Remlos in the shadows does not allow it)

But the Eastern Lemurian Empire is also full of hands against the Farse kingdom, and cannot afford to go to war.

So the Eastern Lemurian Empire thought.

Let the barbarians do it.

At that time, the East Lemurian Empire had alliances with a certain group of powerful beasts (Warbeasts).

The name of the chief of that clan was Dietrich, and Dietrich had spent his childhood in Nova Lemuria… even as the Eastern Lemurian Empire, he could be trusted somewhat.

Besides... I couldn't ignore the military power of that clan, and I was wondering if you could move a little farther as the East Lemurian Empire.

So the Eastern Lemurian Empire told Dietrich, "I will do the Aperia Peninsula to you. Destroy the Western Lemurian Empire. Oh, give the crown back properly. That way I would present you with the throne of the Aperian Peninsula and the status of consul and protector of the Western Lemurian Empire".

If the Aperia Peninsula is also available as Dietrich, this is fortunate......

So invade the Aperia Peninsula.

It was the founding of the Kingdom of Ederna, which destroyed the Western Lemurian Empire and made Ederna the capital city of the Aperian Peninsula.

By the way, at this time the emperor crown of the Western Lemurian Empire was properly delivered to the Eastern Lemurian Empire...

Legally, the East-West Lemurian Empire is integrated.

Therefore, the demise of the Western Lemurian Empire is a mistake from the Lemurian Empire, and rightly a unity between East and West.

Though essentially doomed.

That's why the Lemurian Empire and the Kingdom of Ederna have been in alliance since then.

"There should be a reign ceremony in Ederna in the near future. Naturally, I'll be invited too... so that's the time to fight. And then I'm going to ask the Lemurian princess witch (Medium) to convert Renalier."

What to hide, the Aperia Peninsula is the birthplace of the Lemurian Empire…

It is a land with the ancient capital Lemuria, the Archbishop of Lemuria.

Corner, if you're going to convert me...

I thought I'd make you a princess (Medium).

"Archbishop Lemuria, too, will still come, won't he? Those balds..."

"... the princess (Medium) and I are superficially close. You guys get along."

Erkühr laughed bitterly.

Supplementary

Erqueur: "By the way, the author explained that the Kingdom of Ederna is under the sovereignty of the Lemurian Empire, but that's a lie"

Nia: "Heh... why?

Elquille: "There is no concept of sovereignty in this world in the first place. More precisely, there is no 'state'. Necessary for a modern 'state' are the three elements of realm, people and sovereignty, or 'state', which is' there is an area surrounded by lines, within which sovereignty and a people who submit to it live ', but the Lemurian Empire has no realm, no sovereignty, and hence no people"

Nia: "But Nova Lemuria or something is the territory of the Lemurian Empire, and I'm a people of His Majesty, and I'm submissive to power, right? You're not?

Erkür "Uhm. In the first place, the Lemurian Empire is the only empire that can unite the Mesian world. Before it was built, its territory was the whole of the Mesian world. The so-called 'territory' of the Lemurian Empire is naturally the Mesian world, and the Western Lemuria is the Mesian world, and because there are Mesians in the Farse kingdom where Shehrazard lived, it can be said that there is also the Mesian world. In other words, it is not separated by a line, but a soft light extends radially and its range of light is the 'Lemurian Empire'. And there are strong centers of light, and there are weak borders of light."

Near "I see. In other words, Master Shehrazard..."

Elquille: "I belong under my control more than I am a Mesian. Regardless, her father is Sasan VIII, and paternally, she would also fall under Sasan VIII's control. And let's not forget, the Mesian leader is a princess witch (Medium), so we can say that she is also under the control of a princess witch (Medium)."

Nia "Does that mean there is no clearly color-coded 'sovereignty', and no 'people' more than there is no 'sovereignty' and 'territory'? I'm convinced... Isn't that word play?

Elquille: "Not so. Kingdom of Ederna, for example... Emperor Lemuria, against King Ederna,

It confers the status of "Throne on the Aperian Peninsula" and "Consul and Protector Officer in the Western Lemurian Empire Territory". But think about it calmly? Don't you think a "throne on the Aperia Peninsula" would suffice? Because he's a king. "

Nia: "Sure... so is that. Why do you need those two?

Elquille: "Easy. The Western Lemurian Empire is my territory before it was built, and the former Lemurian Empire people who live there, the Lemurians, are my subjects. Guaranteed by The Throne of the Aperian Peninsula is control of the land of the Aperian Peninsula and its status as King of the Beasts (Warbeast) who have emigrated from the outside, and does not include the control of the Lemurians who live on the Aperian Peninsula. That is why we must gain the status of consul and patron officer and borrow control over that Lemurian. In fact, in the Kingdom of Ederna, King Ederna's" Ederna Law "is adapted for the Beasts (Warbeasts) and the Western Messians, but for the Orthodox Lemurians, the" Lemurian Law ", including my decree, is adapted."

Nia: "That's tricky. I'm going to have a headache."

Elquille: "It's still easier to understand. Originally this includes in addition the Church and the Lordship Power. By the way, the church is not a single rock, and the power of the princess witch (Medium) and the power of the local church sometimes collide. At least the local church isn't a princess witch (Medium). In the case of a lord, it depends on the region, but it is not necessarily subordinate to the king's power, nor are the little lords who serve that lord necessarily subordinate to that power."

Nia: "Sure... a tenth of a tax, or something, right? For once, it is free will in the Lemurian Empire. I learned that it's compulsory in Western countries."

Elquille: "A tenth of a tax, yeah, that's a good example. There are also many different types of power in the first place. Judicial, legislative and executive powers are completely different powers. And among the executive powers are the right to collect taxes and the right to police. It is normal that there is not one power, such as the right to non-input, the right to a lord's trial, a tenth of a tax, etc. Even in the Lemurian Empire... I am more or less subject to the restrictions of the ecclesiastical laws enacted by the princess witch (Medium) than I am to being a Mesian. And vice versa."

Nia: "But the Lemurian Empire is a rock for what it's worth, right?

Elquille: "Sort of. As I said earlier, power in this world is like a radially stretching light. If that light were very strong, it would be just that light. On the contrary, light and light sometimes overlap if they are weak. At least my power is absolute within what the Lemurian Empire calls" territory. "

Nia: "What's the secret?

Elquille: "It's violence. People do not obey in light. If my hands and legs are within reach, I can beat them up and make them work."

Nia: "I thought so. And I'm plain curious... what's the difference between 'kingdom' and 'empire'?

Elquille: "That will depend on people to interpret it differently... but at least in the perception within the making, 'a being that can unite the universal world' is the empire. I'm an 'empire' because I rule the Mesian world. The Kingdom of Pharus is inherently an empire because it is" King of Kings, "but in this novel it is written from the perspective of the Lemurian Empire, so it is not" Empire, "but labeled" Kingdom ". Well, I think you're free to name it. The Bulgaron Kingdom calls itself" Empire. "I won't admit it."

Nia: "With that said, King Farth is the supreme priest of 'Holy Fire', isn't he? I mean, you're the ruler of the 'holy fire' world, so you can say 'empire' that unites the universal world. Because the Lemurian Empire also has Holy Firemen...... does that mean that the Lemurian Empire will be within the power of King Farth?

Ercure: "That's what I'm talking about. So if our country persecutes Holy Firemen, it becomes a troublesome diplomatic issue. And vice versa."

Nia: "By the way, what is this long commentary for?

Elquille: "It's going to be important next time, so we need it."

Nia: "Heh, didn't you have the option of explaining it well in the making?

Elquille: "If you get pinched in the middle of this damn long narrative, you're gonna lose it from the flow of the story"
