Tearmoon Empire Story

Episode 89: Ludwig's Terminal Delusion

"What? Is that such a good place?

Listening to Meer, the emperor was slightly frowned upon.

"Yes, it's a beautiful forest, and I thought it would be a good place to rest."

"I see. If that's what you mean..."

Ludwig, who watched that exchange on the edge,

- Oh, my God.

I was feeling a slight disappointment.

If you do make it the Crown Princess's direct jurisdiction, the Still Sea Forest will be saved. The conflict with the Loulou tribe will be dissolved.

But instead, I buy grudges from Viscount Bellman.

Viscount Bellman is not a very beneficial figure in Ludwig's view. Either you look like a short-circuited person to avoid dating.

However, he is noble.

He who has been entrusted with the reign of the land.

For the reform that Meer is trying (and he believes) to do, we really need a lot of people's cooperation. It is better to not buy unnecessary resentment as much as possible.

Or maybe Meer decided that the Loulou people should buy grudges and do it.

That is, I guess, justice and a laudable attitude as a princess......

- Still, I thought Master Meer would rule it well. Was I buying that guy away?

Yes, Ludwig was no longer satisfied.

It can also be described as a terminal symptom of paranoia. A little abnai......

But that disappointment was finally about to remove from his eyes the cloudiness in the name of faith in Meer.

Yes, Meer is nothing but witty, not a Virgin.

Either that or a slightly unfortunate Her Royal Highness..., he was about to reach that truth, precisely then!

"Then, Bellman, make the town of the Empress (Princess Town) by its woods. Build a castle for Meer."

To the emperor's words, Ludwig nearly held his head.

- Oil on fire. Something extra...!

Did they just reduce their territory, build a town there, even a castle to name a few?

- Sure, if you order Viscount Bellman, you won't have to waste the Empire's money, but for that matter, you buy extra grudges.

So he sighed, he noticed the look on Bellman's face.

"Oh, oh... Your Majesty, that's..."

Ludwig was confused by the way he was struck and trembled by emotion.

- So, what the hell...?

After desperate thought, he realized that there was... a war.

- -- Is that what...? No, but no way...

If the other person was a merchant, Meer's choice was to buy grudges. That's right, you take over your own assets, with the Emperor's power.

It doesn't have to be against orders, it can't be welcome.

But... oh, but no.

Viscount Bellman is a nobleman. And nobility is a creature that always values honor above all else.

Meer gave her a perfect idea of the character of her opponent.

An "honor" that's not on top of this.

Why did Viscount Bellman go on such an outrage in the first place?

That's because I was inspired by a sense of confrontation with Rudolphon's neighborhood Tubors.

Realizing the thirst of his heart, Meer bestowed the honor of having the princess's special title in her own territory on her to prepare a town for the princess.

It is an unparalleled tribute to the nobility.

Anyway, if that forest is going to be Meer's territory, naturally, it's because together, the Emperor and I have more opportunities to take a trip.

The honor is hard for the aristocrats to replace.

- Mia, are you saying that you set the conditions for protecting the forest without cutting yourself in any way?

In addition, the creation of the town of the Crown Princess (Princess Town) by the woods prepared a path to prosperity for the annoyed Louloulou.

The rest is up to them, but having a town nearby also makes logistics thrive.

It's also a way to not buy Viscount Bellman's grudges, but even get a thank you.

- -- If I were you, I would lose Viscount Bellman by conspiracy. Captain Dion would still have the strength to eliminate the Viscount.

But that's the next best thing to do.

Nobility, or lord, is one of the gears to turn society around. If, because a glitch occurs, there will always be confusion if we eliminate it.

In order not to do so, we have to decide on the next lord as soon as possible and take over for him...... but still, confusion is inevitable.

The hearts of the inhabitants will be disturbed and the territories will be rough. In order not to do so, what do we do?

Easy. Just make sure the lord moves well.

Meer did it easily.

- Probably not the end of this. For Rudolphone's Tubor, due consideration should be given as well.

Ludwig's terminally symptomatic expectations were to hit the following week for what cause.

A letter arrived from Tiona, daughter of Rudolphone's Tubor, under Meer, who returned to the Imperial City.
