Survival in Another World With My Master

Episode 347 - Meeting Imperial Diplomats

"Every time, why don't you feel free to visit another country's embassy as a king?"

"That's it. That's what they call an expeditionary, right?"

"Sometimes Koske gives you a glimpse of strange intelligence."

and discuss it with Kirilovich, the Vallag Empire diplomat.

"Ah, it's been a long time...? How are you?"

"Hee, hee... thank you, Mr. Schmel."

Shumel looked down from above at close range and saw Cubi trembling.All hairs cut mercilessly have grown and changed a long time ago. I lost them once, but I wonder if they are well cared for.

"You look so glossy...?Did you eat Imon for the money that sold Koske?Doesn't that look like a good fur, eh? "

"Well, that's not true.I lived with discretion and integrity. "

"Hmm? Good manners, eh?"

"Scratch it."

Cubi looks at us and asks for help, but ignores it.It was almost two years ago that I was hooked up with him, but if I made one mistake, I'd be dead.This grudge is not going to clear up.

"So, what's the situation this autumn, Mr. Kirilovich?"

"That seems strangely remarkable this past year.They are hardening their defenses like a tortoise child, and there are no signs of a major rendezvous.Giraiznik Plain - the plain where the Empire and the Holy King are in dispute, but the power divided between them has not changed much, but there are signs of moving troops from the north and south.Isn't this something you know more about? "

"Unfortunately, I'm not bright on the eastern side of the kingdom.However, according to the story, there are fewer skirmishes, and the movement of military operations seems to be shrinking.Yes, what are the forces moving from the north to the south? "

"What are you doing?"

Face to face and smile at each other.

In other words, there are no signs that the troops that the Holy King has moved from the north and south have been sent to the east, which is the front line with the Empire, or to the west, which is the front line with the Kingdom of Merinard.

"... civil unrest?"

"Well, is it the inner circle or the rebellion of the subordinates who are being enslaved?Either way, there is no doubt that something is happening in the Holy King's country. "

"I thought you were holding something."

"Let's just keep saying that."

Again, Nico and I looked at each other with a smile.I have absolutely no information, but if Kirilovich says so, he may think the kingdom of Merinard is biting a piece of what is happening in the Holy King's country.Or is it a mislead to make me think so, or is it trying to extract information from me?

Well, the day may not be that far away when we can answer each other.

"Perhaps.Therefore, I would like to talk to the Empire in the future, but I wonder if it will be possible to use the sea route. "

"That's a quick story.Can't the sea be used unless we do something about the Holy King? "

There is also a port in the Kingdom of Merinard.In the eastern part of the Kingdom of Merinard, where Sir Leonard is in charge of protection, there is a city with a fairly large port to the south-east, where he used to trade with the Holy King and the Empire.Now that the Holy King has blocked the route to the Empire, it should be impossible to trade with the Empire.

"But do we use ships to transport food to the Holy King?"

"Hassounander"

"Voice, Voice"

I tried to flush it with a body that I knew for the first time, but couldn't I go through it? Don't do it, Kirilovich.

"You're not gonna hide it, are you?"

"Hmm, I suppose we'll make the conversion of subhuman slaves a barter.Besides, he said he would pay properly.Well, it sounds like we're talking about trying to be as rude as possible. "

They trade with the Holy King not only for food, but also for luxury goods such as elf beer, crafts, and jewellery, so that they can obtain funds from the Holy King.However, exports of minerals such as mythrill products and those that can be used for weapons are NG.Gemstones are limited to products that have been polished as ornaments so that they cannot be used as materials such as magic tools.

Even after polishing, it is not impossible to convert to magic equipment, but in that case, it seems that the cost effectiveness will be very poor because the polished gems will have to be crushed even smaller and polished.

"Well, like that, I'm trying to tighten up the Holy King's kingdom like a cotton strangler."

I hope it works.

"Hahaha, well, it's better than nothing"

I'm sure the Holy King knows what we're up to, so he'll come after us pretty hard.But this is the same thing.All you have to do is change your hands, change your items, and crush them.This is similar to the weaknesses of the people who were taken away two years ago - subhuman slaves, but there are too many war dead and prisoners there, the bitter conditions under which the two-frontal operation is being forced, and chronic food shortages.I think I can carry something advantageous for now.

And if something is happening in the Holy King's country, there will be a way to take advantage of it.Whether it is a civil unrest or a rebellion of subhuman slaves, it is.There is also a way to fuel chaos in the Holy King's country by inciting conflict and helping forces that are convenient for us.

"Oh, yeah, I've been traveling a lot.I've bought specialties from all over the world, so please share them with me. "

"Thank you for that. Next time, we plan to receive distilled liquor from the Empire, so we will serve it as soon as we arrive."

I'm looking forward to it.

And while I was talking to Kirilovich, Cubi was snoring all the time behind me, but I completely ignored it.Harpy and the others were peeking at it from the window, so it seemed pretty horrible from the side.I don't think Kirilovich is the only one talking to me without changing his face in that situation.

But there are signs of civil unrest in the Holy King's country, right?I don't know what's actually going on in the Holy King's country, but I don't think this is going to take the form of a finale in a large-scale war.Interference in a way that promotes internal collapse is likely to be the main factor in the future.

However, there is a possibility that if we are hunted down, we will try to do nothing with one round of reversal.I will pay more attention to my surroundings in the future.
