The Adventure of the Boy With a Mind of a Middle-aged Man

Lesson 27: The Future of Prosperity

Then, for a few days, he raises the total strength of the Sagami Chamber of Commerce to treat and feed the captives of the Raddles who had been captured by Camelot during an insomniac rest (fumifucu).

Former lord, the oppression of David. If you think that nightmare has awakened, next up is the conquest by the Army of the Kingdom of Amulzez. Because David had taken away his resisting power and his temper, he had no choice but to take possession of it.

Of course, the care of the damage of the assaults of the Royal Army under occupation, both physically and mentally, is also important.

But more than that...

"Hmm, that the Royal Army of Amulzez took most of the food from each tribe and sent it home?

"This is ridiculous! Well, you're like telling me to starve to death!

Carla's words, in a way, show the truth. More importantly, the worst thing is that this degree of territorial aggression can no longer be cleaned up in some army outbursts. Now we can't just let this annihilation hit us by hand.

"Open up all the food that the Royal Army of Amulzez had occupied in Camelot, and how much do you have?

"About six months, Admiral. Besides, we're only talking about the five tribes around this Camelot. All tribes have a month."

Judd glances at the material he puts in front of me in a throwing mood.

"I can't forgive this outrage!"

Carla gets up and punches her fist at her desk, even as she raises her thick blue muscles to her forehead.

"Carla, you can have zero tea. If you make a scene, I'll order you to leave."

He turned his gaze like he was shooting at Jude and lowered his back to the chair as he still shook his shoulder.

For Karla, I guess past events in Toto village overlap and are not other personnel.

"There are about a hundred prisoners of this Camelot. Additionally, 30,000 people could fit in the settlements dotted at the foot of the Ladore Mountains…"

These 100 men were taken by force from each tribe, as the kingdom turned its resistance. Naturally, there is a population several dozen times that size.

Most precisely, after the Raddle annexation, the Empire fears their cohesion and has forced certain tribes to move to multiple territories of the Imperial Territory. The Ladorans near this Ladoah forest zone are less than 10% of the original total population. And 90% of its imperial territory is the dominated area of the Gate nobility, deprived of freedom of movement and freedom of vocational choice and, in fact, treated as serfs and miners.

Ultimately, all Raddles need to be returned to the area. To do that, it is still imperative to confront both the Gate nobles. Fine, you've done whatever you want before, and I'll make sure you get that reward straight.

"As you instructed, food could be purchased from Lady Gilles, 50,000 mounds of lime gi. In addition, I was promised food aid in the future by the McBurn Border Reverend and the two of you in the Count Hartwig family, so for the time being, I think I can manage to maintain it."

Fifty thousand mounds? It's about a year's worth of food for 30,000 people. You don't have to starve for the moment. In the dossier, the cost of the sale is 100 million g. Gilles' guy, I hear you've been pretty excited. The continued supply of food from now on by both uncles is really helpful. Thank you first to Gilles and both uncles for providing food later.

"So, what about the elders?

"Thirty-two representatives of the tribe are already, at the General Lordship Hall in Camelot, waiting"

"Okay. I'll see you soon."

He took Judd and the others and transferred them from the Sagami Trading Hall in Straheim to the General Lordship Hall in Camelot.

Upon entering the large room, the gaze of 32 people sitting on each seat of a large rectangular table pours on me simultaneously.

What dwells in those eyes are confusion, amazement, disbelief, anger, and hatred.

Flatly ignoring such a complex gaze, he lowers his back to the short side seat of the table where the Lord in the deepest part sits.

Perhaps no one objects to my sitting in the Lord's seat, partly because a number of matters concerning me have been pre-disclosed through the Chamber of Commerce to prevent confusion.

"I am the lord of the land - Gray Ines Navarro. Quick, but do you understand what's going on here?

Talk as gently and as teachingly as possible. They are hurting in every way. I don't care how many truths I pronounce from above, I have ears to listen to. Sometimes you need to be delicate and polite when you give up a crying child.

And they're losing what's most important. The first priority should be to make him get it back.

……

Nobody answers anything. Is the reason for this from my rebellion against ruling this land just because I am an empire young, or is it just hard to even put it into words? Either way, I am not going to give them the shifting of responsibilities or the leeway to evade reality.

"And the food that was swallowed up by David and the armies of the kingdom of Amulzez shall already run out of bottom, and not wait a month left, and the ladle shall perish."

My words stain the attendant's face with despair as if it were a wave.

But not yet. The ordeal they face is not like that.

"Besides, more than the destruction of the Army of the Kingdom of Amulzess in this land, they will, with their prestige, send troops and try to kill you all."

"It was your lord's army that did it!!"

To my words, a woman with long dark hair tied behind her back, changes her blood phase, gets up and is dramatically elevated.

"And Ri. But if they don't know that, the result is the same. Well, in two weeks' time, we'll be attacking the land with a big army."

All the secret detectives in the kingdom lurking near here drove them out. Given this nearby geography, it's about two weeks before they find out about the fall of Camelot's Royal Army. Based on the level of practice of the Royal soldiers stationed in Camelot, it takes another two weeks for the Royal Army to be in the land. I mean, there's room for a month.

Even though I can't tell them that, silly honestly.

"You bastard!"

"The Empire's Kusare Outside Road! Why do you always have to kill us!?"

"I was somewhat expecting Lucia and the others because they said they were so different from normal archivists, but in the end they were the same. They're nothing but animals who treat us like beasts!

When the tribal chiefs stand up one after the other, they begin to curse at me with shapes when I am a demon.

Well, do you have the vitality to be angry at face to face? That's a quick story.

"They're quick people. We have the means to regenerate death."

"I can trust you!

"You can't swallow a pelican, such as the words of an imperial!

Further anger flies simultaneously,

"Shut up."

Dread, a giant man over two meters of head, whimpering so quietly, slaps his desk with his palm. The wooden desk fell into the palm of a man, with spidery cracks in it.

And in a room where the earlier hustle and bustle quiet back like lies.

"Lord, let's move on."

Nice. I saw him as one of them. Was there still a man of great power in this hand left in the people of Radl? With this man, the plan can proceed without delay.

"Nah, you just have to change your mind a little bit. I mean, why do you guys only see things pessimistically?

"How can I be optimistic about this situation!?"

She frowned, her canine teeth peeled out, and the brunette raised her irritable voice.

"This time the kingdom of Amulzez dug the largest grave. We marched beyond the summit of the Radoah Mountains on the border, and without declaring war."

"So where is the grave of it!?"

"Don't you see? They gave themselves a chance to reclaim their territory."

This ladle and the kingdom of Amulzez are bordered through the Ladoah Mountains, the summit of which is the current border with the imperial territory. More precisely, it was originally Ladle territory, but while Ladle was exhausted in the war with the Empire, he took it from the side.

This time, the kingdom of Amulzez, without declaring war, crossed the border. Besides, they robbed the tribes of food. That responsibility cannot be shown to the international community unless it is necessarily taken. This is a good reason to reclaim the original land.

"... that sounds like a statement that we should win over our kingdom of Amulzess?

An old man with white hair, rubbing a bright white, long beard, but asking back for what he deserved.

"Exactly. Drop the Arkhroy fort on the other side of the mountain range within three weeks, and claim to reclaim territory in retaliation for this march against the kingdom. So all this Ladore neighborhood is Lador's."

In this statement of mine, the room is wrapped up in the noise (like a bee's nest).

"Ridiculous, you'd be forced to decide"

"If you fail, what kind of retaliation will you take..."

I was sincerely sick and tired of the words of denial spouting in my mouth.

Earlier, if you don't move, this ladle will perish. I should have assured you so. Now what are you going to do for fear of failure? Has the empire and kingdom shaved you to the bones and plucked your fangs so far? That's enough for me to yawn.

"Oh, hey, Gray -"

I noticed my transformation. Aquid grabs my shoulder desperately,

"Don't skip four or five."

Slap the words.

Regardless of the tribal chiefs who open their mouths with pokans like an abalone, I keep spinning my words.

"I told you. You've only got two things to do, doom or glory. It doesn't matter if it's impossible or not. If you don't want to lose your country and your family, you'll have to do it."

The dread-headed giant man was pulling his jaw and tapping his desk with his left index finger, but shooting me through with those dark eyes.

"The Lordship can beat our kingdom. Is that what this is about?

"It's up to you."

"Spirituality isn't the only one you can beat, is it?

"Dumb ass! Bringing spirituality to war and all that scares me!

War is what the mighty win. And a strong man is not something brave, but something that can kill more people. "

"I mean, you think we can kill the Lord better than the Royal Army?

"Oh, if only with my devised measures and weapons."

The dread-headed man hoists the end of his mouth with a ni for the first time as he strangely quietly returns.

"Finally, let me know what the Lord's purpose is."

"Is that a condition for participation in this operation?

"No, building trust."

Build trust. Sure, that also fits my purpose.

Whatever I proclaim on this occasion, these people do not trust me in the true sense of the Empire. Even if you repel the Royal Army only with me and the Sagami Chamber of Commerce, you interpret it at will and lock it in your own shell that I moved and exchanged the Imperial Army, etc.

As a result, I turn my word down as a cliché, I don't lend ears, and I choose an easy subordinate life. In that case, it is obvious that all my plans will fail.

My purpose cannot be achieved in the true sense of the word, except by eliminating the spirit of masochism from the Raddles.

"Fine. I'll only say it once, so listen carefully to your ears.

I intend to make this ladle the highest industrial, academic city in the world. For this there are enormous personnel and land, funds. Around the Ladore Mountains? 30,000 people? Ha! There's not enough of it as it is. "

Dredd, the look on your head obviously changes.

"Does the lord say that he will untie his compatriots?

"Don't be sweet. It's your responsibility to make it happen. Isn't it?

"... put that... no, let's not put it down. Everything is pictorial as it is now. We don't have a choice."

Dredd's head rises and looks over at the other tribal chiefs. The tribal chiefs also nodded small and rose one after the other.

"I'm the head of the tribe Grune - Theo. For this battle, we will obey the Lord."

When Theo corrects his posture and points his arms parallel, the other tribal chiefs become it.

"Don't look back. You don't need a miserable past anymore."

I, once I cut the word,

"The only thing to wait for is the future of prosperity after victory."

With all that power, I proclaimed.
