"I, the churches in each village, and those there, order them to spread the rumors."
"What kind of rumors?"
"Orient senators, especially those who are trying to use assassins to erase me, and their stakeholders, are after my life for their own good.Anyway, spread the word that good and innocent people are putting me in danger. "
Defeat the assassin when he arrives.
This is an absolute condition.
I don't know who I'm dealing with, but if I get hit lightly, it's over.
We don't know when, where, or how they'll attack, but we need to defeat the assassins who show up.
But of course I don't want to end it alone.
I mean, it won't be over.
I was formally decided to send a life-threatening assassin to the council in a meeting with the elected senators.
If you take down the assassin, it won't be over.
We need to be cautious.
But the problem is, I'm not sure how much we can use the assassin.
The assassin is called the Shadow One, who doesn't exactly know Banaj either.
I'm sure there's not so much information we can get from defeating the guy who showed up.
Which means I can't prove who asked him to kill me.
Maybe there's no such thing as an order in the council minutes.
Of course, it would be possible to fight the Orient without proof.
However, then new problems arise.
After fighting Orient Country.
If an assassin wins a battle against the Orient without proof that he has anything to do with it, I can only be seen from the surroundings as a building block for a mercenary group that suddenly attacked my employer, the Orient Country.
In that case, from the perspective of the people living in the Orient Country and the surrounding countries, I and the Balkan mercenaries can only be seen as having zero credibility.
That will make future activities more difficult.
That's why we need at least a reason to fight Orient Country.
Finally, it's called a cause.
For good reason, I fought Orient Country and proved myself right.
That's how we need to talk.
To do this, I will do what I can from now on.
Let's start by spreading rumors.
At present, the Balkan mercenary regiment has a high level of trust from villages hit by the storm.
There is no way I won't use this.
A group of Balkan mercenaries who rescued a village that was devastated and in a difficult situation.
The Orient Nation is moving to get the Balkan mercenary regiment for personal gain.
Especially the senator and his associates who were in favour of sending me an assassin.
Yeah, that's right.
What about the fact that the creditor who fled to Georgia was originally acquainted with the country, and that he and the senator who bullied me this time were connected behind the scenes?
You tried to kill me not for the Orient Country, but for the Greek Country.
In other words, the true traitors are the senators who have entered Congress, and we, the Balkan mercenaries, stand up and fight for the Orient nation.
"Thank you for waiting, Commander.Squad Zen, we're here. "
"Thank you, sir. I'll be right back, but I'll need you to load these softwood trees."
Roger that.
With that in mind, Zen's troops arrived while giving instructions to Eye.
Zen was acting differently when I came down the river with Walter and Kik.
This is for the means of transport of the softwood obtained at the lumber mill.
Naturally, it would be easier to carry a heavy tree floating in the river.
However, it was difficult to go upside down the river with the increasing amount of water.
Therefore, the lumber obtained was scheduled to be transported by road.
To that end, Squad Zen prepared cars and wagons for the horses to tow to.
Along with Zen, there were merchants who often traded in New Balkans.
They are sold here, mainly on lumber that gets heavier when it floats on water.
I'm going to bring back only dry wood and what I can use as a large bow for Ian.
The rest will be disposed of here and the merchants will go for sale.
It seems that the Jujiki tree was monopolized by Georgia and the rest of the country didn't get much.
The merchants smiled nicely because they would have bought it at a fairly high price if they took it to the right country.
That's how you take home the soft magic tree and dispose of it, and then you go home.
Before that, I once again gathered the main faces and explained the current situation.
"I know Walter was on the boat with us, so Kik and Zen listen carefully.I just got word that an assassin has been released from Orient Country towards me.An assassin named Shadow Man, he seems to have a lot of trust and proven track record from Senator Orient.I want you to know that you could be attacked before you go back to New Balkans. "
"Really, is that it? Isn't that a big deal?"
"I'm not lying, Zen.In fact, this information came from Congressman Laura and Lord Banaj. "
"I see. So you're going to take the soft tree home while protecting Alphonse?The priority will be to protect Alphonse, is that okay? "
"Oh, please, Kik. I just don't know who the Shadow One is.So maybe you should just do your job a little bit normally.I don't suppose they think we're getting the assassin's information so quickly.I think it's better not to let them know we're on guard. "
"Yes, I will tell the mercenaries here to be vigilant so that the softwood they have won't be taken from them.I think that will also lead to the protection of Alphonse. "
"That's it. Let's go back to New Balkans. Let's go."
I did what I could do now.
All we have to do is wait for the assassin to arrive.
I don't know when they're coming, but it's a great opportunity for me to go out from the assassin's side rather than back to New Balkan City.
I think it is highly likely that they will attack us by the time we return.
While waiting for the assassin to arrive now or now, we towed a lumberjacked car back to New Balkan City.
