"Idiot... Geraldine, Geraldine... is dead..."

Geraldis, a childhood friend of his, is a trace of his right arm, the Marquis, who possesses excellent wisdom and judgment.

It's dead.

... no, I killed him. I...

Impatient, irritable, and inadvertent words that should never be overlooked.

And the weight of the words you spit out as the Emperor.

"Oh.

Oh, yeah.

ahhhhhhh..... "

The emperor knelt down in disappointment.

It was not the ambitious emperor of the Alder Empire who was aiming to expand his territory, but just the back of a withered middle-aged man...



I surrender, Emperor Schultrak III of the Alder Empire

"Ahh, did I touch you..."

"I thought it would stick a little more..."

Something happened, a trusted subordinate escalated desperately, or the nobles were about to start a mutiny...

Well, even if you say "surrender", it doesn't mean that you're surrendering to another country.

You don't subdue your territory or pay damages, and your people won't be taken away as slaves.You just apologize and your face will be crushed.

I guess you're thinking... maybe...

That's why it's an easy surrender.

If this were against another country, we wouldn't be able to surrender so easily and unconditionally.

If the other party is using it, we will not make a request other than an apology."I guess I surrendered thinking so cheaply..."

... but the world isn't that sweet.

"And so am I."

All right, get back to Japan and print it out!

... copying at a convenience store is troublesome, and if you see a large number of suspicious documents that are not in Japanese or English, it will be difficult for you to go there in the future, so copy them with your home printer/scanner/copier.

It is a multi-function machine that can be relied on by Epson, which is a tank type and ink cost is cheap. It is awesome!



And in two hours, we'll be over the Imperial Capital.

I smashed 200 flyers.

It was quite low and the wind was weak, so more than 80% would fall into the Imperial City.

Unlike the pictures, there was not much ink consumption because it was only letters.

I copied it in grayscale instead of in color.

After sprinkling the leaflet, it was immediately withdrawn due to transfer.

The flyer doesn't need to be checked for bullets.

Besides, this time at low altitude, if you don't hurry, it will hit the ground immediately.

If you sprinkle the flyer at too high an altitude, it will fly somewhere without falling into the Imperial City.

Anyway, this will be in the hands of the Emperor, and it will be well communicated to the residents of the Imperial City and other foreigners staying in the Imperial City.

What did the Emperor do to you?

What did the angry master demand from the Emperor?

And how did the Emperor respond to it?

Yes, what the Emperor has promised you will be known to the nations of the continent.

If only the Emperor knew what he had promised you, he might later fail to keep his promise or be misled.

However, if all the people and all the neighboring countries know its contents, if they break their promises, the Empire will break even the promises made to you.In that case, treaties and agreements with other countries must be broken without any problem. "," No matter what kind of promise you make to the Empire, it is pointless. "," Only the idiots honestly defend by entering into a treaty that no one else is willing to protect. "It would be ridiculous, and there would be no trust as a state.

No matter how vigorous the Empire is, it will be hard to completely lose credibility with all the neighboring countries.

Even if international relations are not very pleasant, business transactions, that is, imports and exports, should be conducted.

It's no wonder they're interrupted.

And the Empire has suffered great damage twice, both when it invaded our country and when it invaded Princess Gegege's country.He must have been quite a pain in the ass, both financially and in terms of human resources.

... especially in terms of losing a large number of skilled soldiers...

Yes, because I deliberately targeted the most important people in the army, the commanders, the officers, the corporals.

Not the extraordinary conscripts who have gathered the peasants, but the officers and skilled soldiers who need a long time and budget to train them...

So the Empire is quite weakened now.

Military strength, financial strength, national centrifugal strength... and the unity of the nobility and the military.

Of course.

Unscrupulous march and two major defeats.

If you have fought hard and lost, it is a one-sided defeat that is too miserable.

Death in vain. Death to the dog. No territory, no slaves, no wealth.

So the people who lost their precious family.

An aristocrat who lost his precious trace son.

The soldiers who lost their men and their limbs.

Whether or not to pledge unfailing loyalty to the Emperor...

And now, after the third complete defeat, the conditions poked from me by the flyer...

"300 gold pieces including medical expenses, compensation and compensation for the 9-year-old girl who was the victim of the assassination attempt"

Compensation for the princess sorceress (including the use of divine power), 2000 gold coins

The current emperor retired as punishment for the heinous crime of assassination attempt.The successor shall not be a lineal subordinate of the current emperor, but a subordinate subordinate or other noble family. ”

Yeah, it's sweet.

You could have told me to offer you the heads of everyone involved, but, well, I wouldn't bleed in vain.

At one point, I said, "My clan's party is killing everyone!!" But I didn't mean it seriously... no, at that point, I had blood on my head and I was really running, but when I calmed down, I didn't intend to do that.

... Of course, if Colette still has after-effects, that's not true.

In that case, the Empire would have disappeared from the map.... maybe.

And I didn't make much of a request because the common people of the Empire were the ones to whom the burden of meeting that demand would go.

Regardless of the first invasion of our country, the second invasion of Princess Gegegege's country was' because the situation of the country has worsened '.

We lost a lot of lives in the battle against our country and spent a lot of money on it.

Money, food, and other supplies... "

And there was a surge of dissatisfaction from the nobility, the army, and the people.

It was the second invasion that led to a razor-sharp act of trying to cope with the plight.

Let the army fight.The nobility must have territory, slavery and compensation as loot.And the general public will be satisfied if they show the appearance of a "strong motherland".

And losing the bet again, the situation got worse.

If you make excessive demands on an Empire in such a state, you will starve to death.

... so all I asked for was 2,300 gold coins.

That's a lot of money for a commoner, but from the standpoint of the nobility and royalty, it's the endgame.

The sense of money here is only about 230 million yen in Japan.

If you convert the gold coins into Japanese yen via the dollar, it will only be less than 60 million yen...

If I don't get this much, it's a huge deficit.

There's money for artillery shells and bombs, and I'm scared of Colette's hospital bills.

If a Japanese traveler becomes cecalized in a foreign country or gives birth to an unplanned overseas child due to premature birth, we often hear that the claim amount is 5 million or 10 million.

It's not like Japan, which has full health insurance.So, when traveling overseas, it is a must to have insurance.

... so Colette's hospital bills range from a few million to over 10 million if you're not good at it.

You may not be discharged from the hospital immediately, and there may be reoperation in some cases.If it is possible to have surgery to reduce the scars, of course I have to take it...

Anyway, 2300 gold coins are only the actual cost without profit, which is called deficitlessness, or if they are poor, they can be taken out significantly.

Whether Wolffang was blown away because he was in a hurry to procure from other mercenaries, and because he was being watched at his feet.The Weapon Dealer swept the bad stock and discounted it, or sprayed it on the other way around.

... yeah, I didn't present the budget in advance, I'm sorry.

In any case, 2300 gold coins will be fine for the Empire.

The only thing left to do is whether the emperor or the emperor will stick to his position, but regardless of his own will, the nobility and the side royalty will drag him down.

Then a succession battle broke out, and the upper layers were in ruins.

For this reason, he wrote that he would deliberately "elect from the side of the current emperor or from other noble families".

Exclude the "Son of the Emperor", which is the default route, and expand the scope of the target.

The nephews and nieces of the current emperor, their children, and senior nobles.

Moreover, although he could not succeed him, the children of the current emperor would also try to take power.

... no, I might even insist on a total war with you."For the lineal subordinate, there is no other way to become an emperor..."

Anyway, for the time being, it won't be an invasion of another country.

Well, let's wait for a reply to the letter of the flyer. "I'm looking forward to it..."

Ah, of course, stop spraying sea water.

I didn't really mean to sprinkle it.
