Survival in Another World With My Master

Episode 218: It's Not Easy to Steal a Country

Now, it will take some time for the King's Army, which has been expelled, to get back to the country and for the Holy King to contact us. In the meantime, we, the Merinard Kingdom Liberation Army, must be ready to launch the nascent Merinard kingdom... but taking over one country - taking over is not a viable task.

First of all, it is the Holy King's Army and the local guards formed by them that maintain law and order in the present Kingdom of Merinard. According to interviews, there are many patterns of security guards in the city, while the Holy King's Army is responsible for security outside the city. In terms of political governance, it also seems that the top of the Adolese religion built in each city often serves concurrently. It seems to be placing high priests in some large city to dominate villages around the park. Should this be seen as a form of governance unique to the religious state?

In any case, if we are to become a nation, we must first provide security to the people and prevent them from starving. Regardless of the circumstances, we will not be able to eliminate the current system with violence. Especially since there are dangerous monsters and bandits in this world. It is like the country of Shura, where violence reigns over everything, if you take a step outside the city.

"There's an urgent need to build an information network using Golem communicators, a vigilance network by Harpy and others, and a defense network using the manoeuvring power of the airboard."

"We also need to review the location of the fort and deploy it more efficiently. The development of a new Golem communication machine for wide-area communication was completed, right?

Merty adds to Sylvie's remarks, pointing the story to Isla.

"N.The development of a communication base device capable of processing multiple communications simultaneously has been completed. Combined with a magic wave amplifier that expands the communication range, it is possible to build a vast communication network while covering a wide range. However, short-term mass production requires the power of Koske. It takes time to build a core."

"We need Koske's help to relocate the fort, and we need Koske's help to boost agricultural productivity. Besides, it would be better if Koske could help increase airboard production and strengthen border defense."

"I need your help to get rid of the Adolese bishop faction in the country. Even if you can see through my eyes the bad priests can get rid of them, but it would still be better for the apostles of God to awaken the believers whose eyes have been clouded by mainstream lies."

After Ira's remarks, Merti and Ellen began to insist that my presence was necessary for their activities everywhere. Hahaha, even if you say that, there's only one body in me.

"Can't you double up like the limes?

"Don't say impossible, impossible. When it comes to mass production of things, you can carry it anywhere you want, so you can do it before you go to sleep while you're moving. The relocation of the fort and the domestic Adolese problem is that if I destroy the existing fort, collect the materials and rebuild it at the same time, there is only one way to proceed with the transformation of the surrounding cities and villages."

I think that's the only way to think realistically. Originally, it might be better to give people a job as a public utility to rebuild the fort, but that kind of thing has to be turned around later and minimally dressed first.

"Then I should accompany you on that journey. If we were to convert from the mainstream to our sect, it would be better if we had the names of the Virgin and the Apostle of God, Koske. We can see if the local guards can be trusted."

Ellen said that without changing her expression, Silfi and Isla, and Merty looked sorry. I'm sure they'd like to accompany us, but Sylvie, as the Queen of the Times, can't leave Merlinsburg. The same is true of Merti, who is essentially the prime minister. And Isla is working on rebuilding the court sorcerers in Isla, and she can't leave Merynesburg like the two of them.

In contrast, Ellen can shake hands and accompany me on my journey with the presence of talent that can be entrusted to Merynesburg, even without Archbishop Deckard and High Priest Katerina.

By the way, Archbishop Deckard looks at us a little farther away, drinking tea and talking. I wonder if he's relaxing on the edge or something?

Sir Leonard? He has been joining forces in the morning to monitor the King's Army as it evacuates the airboard. It's time for Da Nang to take the lead and arrive in Merynesburg, so say that Da Nang has the task of packing it in Merynesburg. He is an old man with fast running feet.

"How many members will accompany Ellen and Miss Zamir, one or two platoons from the samurai squadron to the escort, and Mr. Harpy?

"Is that so? Grande-chan may arrive."

"Because it's whimsical. You don't have to follow me, but if you want to see me, you'll fly."

I can't drive with you, and I'm just sleeping in the back of the airboard. In that case, I feel like I can eat and sleep in Merynesburg and fly when I want to see you. Tell me the general route, and they'll find it on their own.

"Mind if I pinch my mouth a little?

Archbishop Deckard entered the conversation as we were discussing his companion. It is foolish to despise his opinions as Archbishop of the Holy King. Sylvie nodded and encouraged him to speak.

"Not only Ellen, but I think it would be better to have a clergyman from our sect accompany you. If you want to insert a stranger's neck, you need the right people."

"Hmm... is that so?"

"Modifying the subsequent station airboards will make it easier for you to transport people. The driver should be able to use the person in charge of the station."

I need to get used to driving airboards. Because there are people who are familiar with corners, there will be no way to make effective use of them.

I see. I think it would be better for the civilian assistant to take the right number of people... and then it would be quite a number. Merty, what's going on with the civilian appointment?

"With the support of Eleonora, we are also in the process of recruiting former civilian and guild officials from the former Kingdom of Merinard, as well as other civilians, such as current merchants in Merinesburg. In the meantime, the minimum conditions are that you can read and write without excessive shortage, and that you can calculate to a certain extent. We are also reviewing the continued recruitment of those who were involved in the administration under the Holy King's rule."

"It seems that a lot of people were sipping sweet juice under white pigs, so it's not very pleasant to keep using it... but it's totally sad."

Ellen shook her head in disgust. Not all of the priests of the Episcopal School of the Holy King seem to have just been corrupted, but they still seem to be gathered under the corrupted ones. Or maybe a decent guy has also been corrupted by the influence from above.

"In the meantime, as a matter of policy, it is urgent to advance domestic stability, so please prepare everyone. In particular, Merti and Ellen should proceed with the selection of personnel to accompany Koske. Koske will prepare you for your journey and reforming the farmlands near Melinesburg until the people are ready. I want Isla to move forward with securing materials to build communications and defense networks."

"Yes."

"Okay."

Copy that.

"Nh, okay."

"Now, let's get started. I want you to get in touch with each other as soon as anything happens."

That's how Sylphie stood up. The other three, including me, stand up and start acting. First, make a craft reservation for the airboard parts and the core parts of the communication base equipment, confirm the development plan with Merti, organize the compartments in Melinesburg, and proceed with the rural land reform in the vicinity... a lot to do!
