By the time we arrived in the autumn, the dispute in the centre seemed settled.

I have escaped the New Kings, and I have welcomed Jean and Andre and other allied forces from the northeast at Castle Bashrall.

In addition to Jean, André, it is a mixed army of about 1,400 men made up of Viscount Draine, Baron Albo and Baron Benuro.

I can say that there was considerable damage because I would say that it was originally about 2,200 people in size.

But it's not the line of command that keeps the defeated army going this far.

No, we lost.

"My apologies, Master Barian…"

Jean openly speaks of defeat, and Andre, by contrast, is still so tight (soggy) that he is likely to hang himself.

"As Lord Barian advised, we were treated heavily among the New Kings who acted as a convoluted force... well, it's time luck when it comes to winning or losing"

"Um, I simply didn't have many allies. Despite Lord Lioncool's destruction of Viscount Bashraal."

Baron Alboro said that winning and losing like a samurai was a regular part of a soldier's house, and Baron Benuro said he hated me.

Baron Benuro is a poisonous tongue family.

But I do have a choice if you say so.

Because it's true that I wasn't able to participate in the central battle.

"My apologies. This is what came out of our unknown."

I lowered my head honestly.

It is definitely my fault that I was unable to enter the war this time.

"No, I don't have a choice... but with Lord Barian, the battlefield would have been different."

"Exactly. There were rumours of a plot to destroy Viscount Bashrall."

Viscount Draine and Baron Albor made me joke and comfort me.

Baron Benuro is firmly pointing at Soppo.

"And now the situation and… my father, Count Lioncool,"

"But... Count Lioncool, to be honest, doesn't know."

Viscount Dorraine answered me.

Viscount Draine is now a leader in the Northeast.

Worked well in his mid-40s and had enough piercing locks.

"The Count worked a lot. Your Majesty's opinion was unfortunately not adopted by the Count. I thought it was funny."

Rudolph's contribution, if you ask me, was a manoeuvre to use a cavalry for manoeuvre defense.

Before the gathering of the King's Brotherhood, the Cavalry will be used to destroy each and every one of them… If you get hammered, it will be like a beating where the difficulty of grasping the position of the enemy and the main cavalry will fight in a row.

... Well, I can't help not hiring... but Father is likely to succeed...

I laughed bitterly that I looked like Rudolph.

It seems that Lioncool's eagle, who led the cavalry to its name, was still alive.

"But if we're at a disadvantage in the meeting, we just got away. I don't know about that."

Jean speaks openly, but it's not easy to look at the opportunity and leave the front.

There is something out of line about their judgment and command that kept them and left while reducing their troops.

"Yes, it's a sight to see here since we escaped. It would have been hard if Lord Barian hadn't held Bashraal down."

Baron Albor smiles bitterly.

From the look on his face, it could be read that this retreat was not easy.

"Please rest in this castle first. If you can also tell us the movements of the Horsemen……………"

After this, head to Lioncool and use the bridesmaid's street and you will not be attacked by the enemy.

They could say that the Northeast Coalition has reached a safety zone.

The coalition took a break for about two days, during which I learned the situation in the centre from them.

If you want to know the news, there's nothing more to it than actually hearing it from someone who saw it... there's no radio or newspaper.

"The Duke of Castella and the Earl of Darmon supported the king's army... the south is still a king's brother"

"Marquis Fourier, honestly, you don't know... because he's a little different there, too."

Viscount Draine and Baron Albor tell us the situation while looking at the map.

When the Marquis of Fourier said, 'It is unusual', the king of Amoros and the king of Fourier were originally allies.

That was when the forces of Amoros grew larger and at some point they became treated as ministers.

From the territory of the Marquis du Fourier to the south is inhabited by a different ethnic group called the 'Aniese', just like the Lionkurs, whose historical Marquis du Fourier also has a historical history and a characteristic that does not intend to be actively involved in the Amoros situation.

I suppose there is a cliché that says, "We are allies, not ministers" and "We are the people of Anise".

Honestly it was a pre-war story and it would be a big change of appearance now...... but far better than not knowing.

If you look at it this way, it's a pretty good fight in numbers.

I'm not complacent, but if I had led the Expeditionary Force by about 2,000 people, I might have been able to flip it.

... well, we're talking about 'maybe'...

I sighed.

Perhaps the throne moves, and the King's Brotherhood literally acquires heaven.

It is more obvious than seeing fire that the next coming is solemn.

There is no doubt that I am the top ranker on the Solemn Clearing List, having been a firefield thief in the unrest over the throne.

Viscount Bashraal reports my movements, and the Crusaders definitely come first.

…… if we surrender, will we be forgiven?

I can't do it first, you better think about it.

Optimistic predictions are forbidden.

You better think about the worst scenario.

Worst scenario...... In this case, replace my neck and a new Count Lioncool stands easy for the King's Brotherhood.

Perhaps Tristan from the point of view of the canonicity inheriting the governor.

Then there will be a storm of solemnity in the realm, and all the footprints I have left will be destroyed without thinking good or bad.

Naturally, the family and the servants of the small breeders are all killed.

And waiting for Lioncool, who was required to pay a lot of compensation, is a fierce hunger.

Lionkur will be the second bashrall, and the people are waiting for their future to gasp (ah) gu for heavy taxes to pay compensation.

Who will protect the weakened lioncool if it is targeted next?

There is no skewered variant around to stare at, and it can't be as powerful weather as Tristan, who has no experience, thinks he can lead a skinny soldier and retreat his enemies.

…… can you forgive………

If you can't choose the way to surrender, there's only one left.

"I'll be the traitor."

This is the only way.

We will have to beat the Crusaders and retain our position with strength.

If you win, your servants won't complain, and if you know I'm strong enough, your enemies will refrain from helping.

Wait that long for harmony.

Both Simon and Robert should be alone by then.

If it sticks that far, you can put my neck on the terms of harmony.

Fortunately, there is a newly acquired land of Bashraar.

It is huge to be able to defend the home, Lioncool, without turning it into a battlefield.

Make Bashraar a battlefield and Rionkur a rear base.

It will come alive that over the last decade we have increased the productivity of Lioncool.

I looked up, judging enough that I could 'resist'.

"Viscount Draine...... I will not yield to my king brother. You will be a traitor."

Everyone was surprised at what I said.

"That's...... aren't some dropouts enough to give up Bashraal territory and pay compensation? Isn't that a little too steep?

Baron Albor panicked and despised me.

But I shook my head quietly.

"If you do that, in the worst case, you'll lose your lioncool. That's unforgivable."

I cut off my words and put my strength into them.

"You can't protect Lioncool without me. This variant will protect you... As Viscount Draine knows, I have broken five times as many enemies in the field in my 17-year-old fold. I will lead 5,000 soldiers of Lionkur Bashraar."

This is a bit of a buzz, but it's sort of a place of appeal and within the bounds of error.

"You know, 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers is not enough if you want my neck."

I look around and laugh with care.

My mouth naturally looses when I think about the battle that's going to happen.

Baron Albor's throat rattled with a barometric pressure.

"The lords will never go out with me. Let's make peace with each other."

"Well, that's a good word! If we turn to the enemy, we'll be the most attacked. How do we gather 20,000 soldiers in the Northeast?"

Jean laughs with her nose when she hears my words.

This made me wonder what I meant.

Because when I say, "We try to be safe with each other", it contains the intimidation that we may become enemies.

Jean is also, in form, independent of me as a co-ruler of the Knights of Bashro, but naturally he has the freedom to retreat.

Everyone laughed bitterly and nodded, "Totally."

"It will be easy for us to go down to the King's Brotherhood and work passively with the King's Brotherhood. If you have to, it is good to go under the protection of Lord Barian."

"Let's give him some time to relax. Stand on our side of the arrow and fight King Lioncool. I don't care how many lives I have."

Viscount Draine and Baron Benullo mouth a strong reality route.

At first glance it also seems like cowardly behavior like a wind chicken, but as a local lord it is normal behavior to defend oneself.

It is gratifying not to be aggressively hostile.

But I reacted with Pickle to words I couldn't miss hearing.

"Who is King Lioncool?

"Ha, there's nothing to shy away from a traitor who won't get anybody up there, you just have to name King Lioncool Barrian I"

Everyone laughed when Baron Benuro said he hated it.

There is no grandeur for treason here.

... I'll do it if we get here... King Lioncool, he's superior!

I laughed heavily at everyone.

"Haha!! That's good! But not since we won! Name the king with victory!! Is there anything more painful going on!

It was a laugh of determination.

In November of this year, the New Kings surrendered completely, and the new King Henri II was abandoned and shut down.

In position for only a year and a half. Later he will be called the 'Helpless King'.

At the same time, the King's brother, Matthias de Amoros, will reign as Mathias I, the 13th king of Amoros.

He was later referred to as the "Bold King".

However, the former New Kings' lords everywhere did not acknowledge this as a false designation, and the unrest showed no signs of quiet.
