Sevens

In the conference room at Rufens Royal Castle, I was getting a report from Liane.

General Blower and Baldoor, and Mr. Adele from the Baym side, are also in the process of receiving a report.

"Rufence has been under reconstruction by General Baldoor since the beginning, so things are going better than planned. You're certain to increase your plans by 20%."

A 20% increase is food related. To move large armies, no - we need food for people to move. As a result, we hurried to rebuild, rebuild and even develop the village. Rufence was doing well because he had a plan from the beginning.

However, it would be due to Liane's ability to do so well so far. Broad horizons were left to securing supplies and transporting them.

General Blower looked impressed as he looked at the report.

"So far so often. If I said it clearly, I wouldn't be surprised if it was a 20% reduction because it was a mess. Well, I was fortunate that Lord Lyell, the Alliance Lord, was familiar with pioneering and such. Are boulders called lord nobles?

I was thought to have had little experience in the field, but General Blower seems to have revamped that assessment.

But there's a third generation of voices from within the treasure balls.

'Well, I've taught you a lot before, but it's easy around there because of me. It looks like I'm actually doing field work and territorial development. "

The third generation was the main one when the territory was expanding, and there was also knowledge and experience in the development relationship. He was advised and went to the site for advice and responded.

I'm looking at General Blower.

"What about the general?

"This is going well, isn't it? Since some of my men are from the beginning, I need to maintain high levels of training and morale after a lot of skilled people and actual combat experience. Well, most of them are farming to secure food."

It was divided into three main parts, with alternating farming and training.

However, it was subtle when it came to Beim. Everyone's gaze gathered at Mr. Adele. Mr. Adele, on top of each other.

"Not very good for Baym. It should be delivered to 80% of the target."

Baldoor, looking at Mr. Adele.

"Is it 80%? I think you're pretty cracked up on manpower, too?

I know you're not blaming me, but it would still be like being blamed by Mr Adele.

"I'm also providing caution and guidance here, but I'm really too personal."

There seems to be a lag in trying to prioritize ourselves as a result of a collision of opinions. If we cooperated more, it would have been as planned, but they're rubbing it with where to send it, even if they send backup.

The baldoor was a little frightened.

"Lord Adele, I hate to say this, but I need you to be a little more firm."

From the baldoor, it is the responsibility of Adele, who is at the top. However, things are slightly different for Baim. When I opened my mouth to follow Mr. Adele, Liane opened her mouth first.

"Beim had a unique way of governing. Seems like a lot of decisions have been made at meetings so far, and even if Mr. Adele gave him instructions, he wouldn't have lost that habit."

Can't you understand Baldoor a little?

"If it's a meeting, so are we."

Liane, smiling.

"You're a little different from us. It feels like I'm taking the time to adjust each claim for the absence of an absolute monarch. It's hard for me, too, and I think 80% of my plans are because I'm more of a Mr. Adele."

When Liane looks at me, I snort. Mr. Adele seems relieved.

"Baldoor, Baim is special. In that, Mr. Adele is doing well"

Baldoor looks at Mr. Adele.

"Excuse me. He didn't seem to understand the land of Baym."

Mr. Adele shook his head sideways.

"Because it is true that we failed to achieve our goals."

Then Liane took the report and calculated it in her head, in terms of food.

"It's the food we hold as it stands, but buying is also a limit to a variety of things. Because I just want it everywhere. With this calculation… it will still be tough to fight in the long run"

That's all the food we need to maintain the Great Army.

And we didn't have enough strength right now to fight a long battle.

I'm watching Liane.

"To what extent can we fight?

"If we go well as we are, we can manage to fight for three months. But that's the limit. To be clear, the future is tough if you don't decide on a battle within two months. After three months, there's only enough food left to turn back."

While Mr Adele put the report on the table.

"... In Bansaim, we are short of manpower and workers at this time of year. The food crisis is visible, isn't it? I doubt how much food is left in Central."

Then, the third generation spoke seriously to me.

"Lyell, choose your marching route carefully. If you do poorly, you will pass through a number of difficult villages due to food shortages. In that case... if you abandon the village, Lyell will be told you have cut off the people. Avoid those villages and march as far as you can. '

The third generation has a strong tone when I grab the treasure ball at my fingertips and try to roll it.

'I'm not playing. How dare you lose to Ceres for such a dumb reason? If Lyell loses, people will die in tens of millions over the next decades.'

After a little while, I grabbed the treasure ball. That's how, on the occasion of the meeting.

"... the marching route chooses a route that holds back the reduction of food rather than the shortest distance. We don't have food in Central. We have to think about the worst."

Mr. Adele tilts his neck.

"Huh? Um... if you don't pick the shortest route, we'll have food."

That's all Mr. Adele said, General Blower was nodding with a serious look on his face.

"To the extent that we do not have enough food, do we avoid the villages? I need to make him look into it... it's something I don't like."

General Blower seems to have understood. Liane looked the same.

"Distance and food consumption, is it the best route to think about them? Indeed, if you abandon a village suffering from hunger, it involves Lyell's assessment. It also affects the morale of soldiers, doesn't it? We fight to save the continent, but we can't even save the people in front of us."

Baldoor rubbing his eyeballs.

"... even though I know the reason, if you see it in front of you, it's a boulder"

Mr. Adele tried to say something, but Liane silenced him with her gaze.

I'll give it to everyone.

"Rawno... I'll let Rawno investigate. We also need to get some information on the march route. I don't think it's changed much in the last few months."

Thus, the meeting ended.

- After the meeting.

Adele was walking next to Liane. Behind Liane's diagonal, Valkyrie XXXIV refrains.

Adele walks.

"For the sake of Mr. Lyell's fame, we should aim for Central while sharing food rather than deliberately avoiding the shortest route"

Liane trumped Adele's opinion without changing the speed at which she walked.

"Depending on the investigation, you have that option. However, the eastern part of the country, where the lord is absent or replaced, the chaos of losing the war and losing many men, is facing a food crisis, no matter what you think."

Where streets are maintained, there are many cities, villages, etc. There is also the aspect that there will be maintenance because there are many cities and villages. It's the same even in cities.

Therefore, considering using the streets, many cities and villages would still pass.

"So if you don't help -"

Liane is pale.

"Help the weak in front of you and increase the factor of losing in the battle you have to win? If you want to take the shortest route, it's up to you to create a possible situation and then advance. Anyone can do it if you just say it's beautiful."

Liane, who followed Adele during the meeting, but now she did not try to get Adele's opinion. Adele says.

"We have soldiers from the East on our side. If you abandon it badly, it will remain a scourge."

"I didn't say I wouldn't help. Help as much as the food allows. The priority should be to win. I'm not choosing the means. That's all we have to do to win."

Adele was eating up her teeth.

"... If you regret it, come up with a solution. I'm not in a position to be incompetent and forgiven. And if you resent Lyell, you're wrong."

"I know."

Adele walked in front of Liane early when she said so.

While No. 34 watched such an adele.

"Damn, you look like a villain, Mr. Liane."

Liane exhales.

"I don't want to be. If I can help, I help. I'm just saying I can't help you because I can't. We must not give the wrong priorities. Besides, without solutions and alternatives, it's just bullshit."

Thirty-four asked Liane that it was only a bad quality joke.

"Well, if there's a solution,"

"After considering it, we will make a decision on whether to hire it. Most importantly, food production is impossible. I am also thinking about sending it because it is still not enough. Well, let's hope Mr. Adele does."

"Because I don't move myself?

Liane looks back to No. 34.

"... do you think you have time for that?

Thirty-four shakes his neck sideways and shakes his dark hair.

"There isn't. Mr. Liane does his work by cutting his sleep. I'll do my best to support you, too. Then hurry up, Master Hiyoko."

Liane increased the speed of walking silently. Thirty-four didn't miss that her cheeks were slightly red -.

"You have a pulse. This may be close to holding Hiyoko in his hand."

- After the meeting, by the time I got back to Baym, Adele was building a neighborhood under her eyes.

Thinking about it all, I still had to give up as Liane said, dropping my shoulders and putting my face on the guild of the former East Branch, which is becoming the center of Baim.

There, my men still seemed busy working today.

Then I smelled something from the garden of the guild. It's more of an experiment than a meal preparation.

There, Maxim, who supports me, was facing Valkyrie.

When he receives something from Valkyrie, Maxim looks disgusted and eats it. Then, with a rugged look.

"... somewhat better but tasteless. Too yummy."

Valkyrie is such an honest impression of Maxim.

"I did some downward processing. It looks delicious."

"When I went into the mountains in training, my senior knight recommended me to eat it, but it was traumatic. It doesn't even look delicious."

There, potatoes were available. What Valkyrie had found was like potatoes that lived everywhere. Something like potatoes is naturally enough to live in, but they are cultivated differently. It's like a mutant species.

It just tastes so bad. Many people have no food to eat, and they don't like to go into the mountains and look for it and eat it.

Some of them even said that they should starve enough to eat this. If you're really hungry, you'll eat it.

(You can't eat if you don't starve, can you? There are a lot of them around there, but I need to dispose of them because they're out of the way... can't I eat them if I don't starve?

Adele ran and took up the potato that Maxim had as it was.

"Oh, my lady! You shouldn't. Such an unsavory thing! And, or indirectly -"

"Please! Hagu!"

Adele, wrapped up in potatoes, was slightly impressed by the indescribable flavor that spread in her mouth.

"... unsavory. But I can eat."

Seeing Adele in tears, Maxim makes a mess of it.

"Shh, I'll have something to reword right away! Hey, you got something!

When Maxim says to Valkyrie, who was nearby, it feels like Valkyrie is faceless but doesn't like it.

"You just have to have it, right? Damn, I made it, but it tastes bad, it tastes bad... so exciting."

Maxim told Valkyrie.

"You guys, are you sure you can't take the screws off your heads or something? Why don't you let Professor Damien fix it?"

Valkyrie showed a grumpy demeanor against Maxim. Sounds like he's going to fight pose.

"disrespectful! We're normal with this."

"It's extra awful!... and Dear Adele!

Adele was crying and eating that unsavory potato. And be sure.

"It's okay. I can manage to eat this. So tell me how to cook. With this, we can march on the shortest route!

Maxim couldn't understand what Adele was saying. However, Valkyrie seemed to understand. When you pinch the edge of your skirt and bow beautifully.

"If you can help people, be happy. So, the dish that Mr. Maxim made to teach us was to have him eat the process."

Maxim looks back to Adele.

"Oh, if the lady is going to make it, this Maxim - no matter how unpleasant it tastes, I'll complete it and show it to you!

Valkyrie shakes his neck sideways with a jerk.

"There is no need for Mr. Adele to make it. I make it, Mr. Maxim eats it. That's all."

Maxim with a blue face. Adele was just crying and eating potatoes. Adele was impressed by that potato, which was usually not seen as food. But it tastes terrible.

"It's not good. It's not good."

From all around, what a creepy sight it would look like.

Thus, Adele had just returned, but hurried back to the Royal Castle of Rufence -.
