Tadashi Tanaka (41) Birth of a Kingdom – ‘Medieval Europe Is Too Harsh!’

A boring winter has passed and spring has come.

Neither did Albert the Butler's unscrupulous training during the winter months, to such an extent as to make him perform martial arts auditions and kill the sick.

Anyway, in the winter, the sick are indispensable, so I killed many people.

It is horrifying to be able to kill efficiently every time you "get used to" it, as Albert put it.

It feels so much like slaughtering goats and dogs these days... it hasn't changed anything unpleasant, but it looks like work or something.

People seem to be able to get used to the environment.

Jean, who has been chosen as my alumni, is only eight years old... about the age of a sophomore in elementary school, but I am completely used to killing people and am a little worried.

"Dear Barian, what are you reading?

Jean spoke to me with interest.

Apparently, I was laughing when I was reading a letter from Rona, which caught Jean's interest.

"This is a letter, from Lolo's sister. He says he can read, write and calculate, so he's tasked with important work."

Jean looks at Lolo as he says, "Yeah."

"Can Lolo read the letters?

"Yes, but paper is valuable, so I can't write to you."

Lolo laughed lonely.

Parchment is expensive.

Letters from Rona are also things that I shredded and reused from me.

Because of the thickness of the parchment paper, it can be reused if the surface is trimmed with a knife or the like.

"Lolo's sister is Barian's concubine?

"No, I'm not. Friends."

While answering Jean's question, I remembered Lorna.

Rona, too, would be about 12 years old now...... in a few more years, there could be talk of that.

In the Kingdom of Amoros, the marriageable age of women is the second half of their teens.

"You're too different," Lolo explained to Jean.

Lolo is strangely grown up because of Osama's presence with me, which is also a little worrying.

As we chatted, a big shadow appeared. Albert.

"Keep the letters readable, and the calculations."

Albert talks to Jean, but he's still scared of his face.

"If you can't read the script, you have to subrogate the military order, which makes it easier for your confidentiality to leak. Arithmetic is also necessary for reward and food accounts."

Albert gave his grandson, Jean, a commonsense opinion.

unexpected.

"Okay, if Barrian has an untrained woman, why don't you try kidnapping her from somewhere else? No, Xama and the others can't have kids yet."

Albert has a bumpy mouth about something incredible.

Again, there was no common sense in this butler.

When I'm spending time with this man, my morality becomes paralyzed and horrified.

All right, then, let's go steal it.

Albert pushes us and goes to training.

Let this man tell you that stealing seems to be training.

………………

We were a little away from the capital and out of the fortified city of Portu.

It hasn't taken a day to get around with a horse, but Albert stayed overnight in Portu and it's early morning.

This is no longer Count territory, but the neighbouring Viscount Bashraal territory.

The Viscount Bashraal family is situated to block the outside of the fortified city of Portu, and they are very unfriendly with the Lionkur family as a common neighbour to each other.

Viscount Bashraal is no match for Count Lionkull by force, but he is harassed by stopping supplies from entering Lionkull from time to time, and as a Lionkull territory he is like a tumble over his eyes.

Albert broke into Viscount Bashraar's territory and moved to a small height.

And I think I've got eyes on a certain rural area.

"Look at that forest."

At the tip of Albert is a small woodland at the location.

A little away from the village.

By the way, the forest is determined by its owner, and if hunted or collected on its own, it is poaching.

If the owner of the forest is noble, a caretaker called Forest Number or Forest Clerk is placed, and poaching is tightly controlled.

If caught, he would be sentenced mostly to a fine, and if he was unlucky, he would be shot dead by a forest keeper or bitten by a hound.

"Looks like pigs are grazing in that forest. Steal."

Albert's instructions are ruinous.

Working in other realms stealing, if caught, it is capital punishment, good and half-kill.

For the record, pigs were creatures raised in the woods in a time when forest resources were abundant.

Left alone in the woods, ill-eating pigs grow up eating nuts that people don't eat, such as dongles, and breed on their own.

In winter, when the nuts were gone, most of the pigs were slaughtered, making it a precious food over winter.

Goats and sheep eat tree sprouts and barks, and they raise them in pastures, not forests, in order to hurt trees.

Now, let's get back to the variants.

"Ugh" stuck my breath when I heard it was stolen.

"A knight deserves to be killed and stolen. Kill and take elsewhere. Divide it into your body… it's a good knight to be able to do that"

Albert says remarkable things.

They don't make sense to him, like chivalry or big names.

"But there's a rancher, right? Some dogs............"

When I asked, Jean said, "What are you going to do with that is train, right?" I laugh.

The end of this eight-year-old is horrible.

"Yes, in enemy land, food is basic to local procurement, and from what I can see, the shepherd has one man, one woman kid, and two dogs."

"... you get rid of it and steal pigs...... ha"

When I sighed at Albert, Lolo reinforced his words, "No."

"If you let him get away with it, he's in danger. You have to kill him."

Albert laughs nibbly when he hears Lolo.

… this is a total crime……… there is no excuse if caught……

I felt like I was getting heavier with Zun.

"That's right! I'll shoot the dog first..."

"No, let's target the man with a stone throwing string (sling), the village will know when the horn is blown..."

Without knowing my mind, Jean and Lolo are planning a raid with pleasure.

I'm ready, too.

"Well, it doesn't taste good to fall apart"

Two people paid attention to what I said... If things got here, there's nothing I can do where I preached morality to both of them.

I switched my mind to at least succeed and focus on our safe return.

"The ranchers will have swords and bows, they will have contact horns, and we will all hit each other to make sure we kill them... the other two hounds on their own will taste bad and make safety a priority"

If this happens, I'll mix it up with the ops conference.

That's right, I want to believe you'll come up with a better operation than two kids.

"There's no point in dying or getting hurt badly. There's another chance to steal, but if you die, there's no next... if you don't, you light the woods, but you run away."

When I ran out of clarity, Jean pointed a little dissatisfied.

He may be hooked on "running away".

"If it's dangerous, it's natural to run away. Death sucks, the next thing you know you're gonna get caught... we're gonna work this out carefully."

Albert, who heard my words, was grinning creepily.

………………

We run over to the shepherd with a loud voice.

It's hard to sneak in from daylight.

Then let us know intentionally and let us be alarmed… Fortunately, we are children. I don't have a hand in not using it.

The horse is left to Albert, on foot.

"Help! Wolf!"

"Hey! Hey there!

"Help me!!

We run over to the rancher desperately.

The shepherd's on guard, but you saw us as children or you just whistled the dog.

"There you go! A wolf! A wolf!

When I approached him with my voice up, the shepherd said, "Where are you?," he inquired.

…… to this extent.

He doesn't care if we're armed.

Me and Rollo have swords and shields, and Jean has bows.

I laughed inside out.

"That way, that way!

The shepherd looked in the direction I showed him... and raised his voice strangely.

If you look, Lolo is sticking his left breast up from the bottom with a dagger.

Seeing this, Jean also shot the girl with a bow.

An arrow stabbed him and a second arrow stood on the fallen girl.

Jean has a clever bow.

"There's a dog coming, watch out!!

I'll fly. No, the hounds are flying.

I prevented it with my shield, but I lost the momentum of the hound and got caught up in it.

However, Lolo stabs a dog with a dagger that is chewing on my shield.

The other one saw him as unfavourable or ran away.

... Not good! Reinforcements from the village are coming!?

Seeing that, I jump instruction to both of you quickly.

"Jean! Hide the body! Me and Rollo catch the pig!!

Say no, me and Lolo went into the woods, roped the appropriate pigs and pulled them out.

"Jean! Can you light it!?

When I checked, Jean headed to check the rancher's fire.

What an eight-year-old who can move.

"All right, Lolo! We're leaving!! There may still be hidden enemies around! Watch out!

I desperately escaped with the pig after giving instructions to Rollo.

Afterwards, each person only leaves.

………………

"Look at that! This!"

Jean gladly blows a horn when he returns to the rendezvous point.

The horn whistle, which would have taken from the shepherd's body, made a loose noise between "Pa Pa Pa Pa."

Jean seems to have unwittingly stripped away shoes and clothes that she seems to be able to use from the corpses of shepherds and girls.

"You did it! Two pigs!

Lolo also roughed his nose in such a way that he couldn't contain his excitement.

The loot consists of two pigs, a rancher's crude bow and sword, and a horn whistle.

And then there are clothes and shoes stripped from the corpses of pastoralists and girls… In the days before they were industrialised, clothing is a luxury product.

I didn't seem to have any hardware.

... That said, I haven't spent any money since I got here? Is the monetary economy less developed?

I was staring at the loot with a blur.

"Well done, quite handy"

Albert came as he pulled his horse.

He hid his horse in the shadows.

"It's a good decision to set the forest on fire. It should protect the forest more than it should chase us."

Albert laughed with pleasure.

Lolo and Jean are also proud.

This is just a criminal group.

From the village, it's not something I enjoyed.

"It is a good knight to take it elsewhere and distribute it within you"

Albert said:

Indeed, it would not be uncommon for a hero from one side to be a killer from the other.

Surely the Duke who became Dracula's model should have been a hero locally, too.

"We're gonna eat pigs in Portu today."

Albert advances his horse with a laugh of guerraggera.

The fact that I behaved like a pig who stole from another realm was told as my 'beauty story'.

Albert's "Good Knight Statue" was right in a way.
