The Cave King will live a Paradise Life -Becoming the strongest with the mining skill?-

"It's too much about land protection. We alone will be able to drive our enemies back enough."

Ashton looked confident and went to us at the round table.

"The ship is coming, and the Navy can show it first class if you just look at it."

Camus also answers in a clear tone.

"Admiral! You two are right, leave it to me about the war! I wonder if they'll run away before they try to fight in the first place."

That's what Yerevan puts up his chest.

Then Barris asked me.

"Indeed, from what we once were, you've become quite a force of war... but I don't know much about the strength of the Kingdom Navy. But His Majesty knows them well. What do you think of the difference between him and me?

"Enough...... no, we'll be able to overwhelm"

Everyone's right, this island already has a strong defense.

A disciplined defensive force, a navy with a small but underwater golem.

Besides, Mappagolem, stone towers and walls will make you feel that this island's defenses are thick in appearance.

That's the kingdom navy, but it should keep the attack in mind.

Ariez the Octopus on the Round Table came as everyone spoke up to me.

"I see... with our superiority militarily. I thought you could take control of the army with the oligarchs..."

"Dude, I've been this octopus for a while now... I call myself the Grand Army Master... but my name is Ari... are you sure?"

When Jerevan says, Ariez absurds his voice.

"The Great Warrior, Ariez! And how many times do I have to tell you I'm not an octopus!

"Heck...... but a military teacher hey. What good idea would a military teacher have? I thought you were just listening in silence."

"Well, do you want my opinion from the new girlfriend? I thought you were a rougher man, but you're smarter. Seems to have a pretty good eye for it."

"Oh, well, sort of."

Yerevan put his arms together a little happy.

Hoole looked like she could be dazed by such Yerevan.

"Father, it's not too much...... well no. Aren't you listening to Alice?

"Well... if we had an advantage in military power, we'd have made sure we were in a good position in the negotiations."

"In negotiations? Specifically?

"Oh yeah...... yeah"

Ariez gets stuck in words.

What Ariez would be trying to say is that he wants something to surprise the Kingdoms even in the negotiations.

"Negotiating, do you mean... even money is easy to show off?

Haines shrugged about that.

Give money to the king in return for requesting autonomy, or even send a bribe to an inspector or a tax collector... one hand I wonder.

But there's a bit of a problem with this.

You thought the same thing about me, Riena said.

"Do you mean in exchange for gold and silver gems… instead, it could be something that inspires their greed"

"Right... even if I give you the money, you should make it a small amount. As I said before, the money on this island is going to dramatically change the continent's economy."

Besides, those outside the kingdom may also have territorial ambitions on this island if they find that there is a large amount of gold on this island.

You should still keep secrets about caves and gold.

Hoole says.

"Well, I didn't do anything wrong here, but I can't even give you something. So... why don't you use Alice's poison to force her to listen?

"... Ha! Right!"

Alice looked like she hadn't noticed.

But Riena speaks differently.

"That's a little..."

Barris also followed Riena and said:

"A negotiator is only a representative of a position. If you put them under control and can't defend the interests of your position, another negotiator will just be sent. Most of all, if Lord Heel wants to attack and destroy the kingdom, I know that he may sneak this breathtaking..."

"Exactly..."

Nevertheless, it can be considered as the worst means.

We may be forced to make choices to keep the dead from coming out.

Jerevan tells Hoole when he hears from Ariez about the poison that manipulates others.

"Hoole... you, don't say anything quite wrong..."

"I don't want my father to tell me. If we can avoid killing each other, we'd better, wouldn't we? If that's the case, what else?

"Yes, no... don't float..."

Like Yerevan, we all got our heads upset again.

That's when Layla opens her mouth next to me.

"Acquired with gold or poison... honestly, I don't think those kingdoms would be willing to compromise with that."

"Oh? If that's it, do you have something?

When asked by Yerevan, Leila tells everyone to appeal.

"You think you'll be convinced with money or something, even though they hate demons so much that they don't even try to enslave them? If we find the people of this island, they'll be the first ones who want to lift their swords."

"The thing is, we've been fighting the best we know. That's why I'm telling you what to do."

"You don't have to rush. They all think that all humans hate demons"

"Right...... right?

"So break that premise. Shake their ground."

"Uh, I mean... what do you mean?

Leila continues with her neck tilting Yerevan.

"What if there were more humans on this island? If people who admire heels came to this island and lived with demons... don't they think it's a good idea?

People of the same race coexist with the demons under me... they will indeed be in a hurry.

But...

I went to Leila.

"A man who admires me won't be the first in the kingdom. Recruiting migrants from other countries can be time-consuming..."

"Yeah, so you don't really have to bring a human."

"... you mean just looking, more people"

"That's right. You just have to build a kingdom-style, human-like house in a place where you shouldn't come in. If you look at the building on this island, it should be that easy."

Leila looked over the island and continued.

"So if you place people close to humans on your island or people on my ship sparsely, you can make them think there are few humans. Well... maybe it's a little bad to be naked."

Leila muttered about that as she watched the mappa dance in front of a human being on a Duchy ship.

He... you're gonna be welcome.

Those who arrive and obey Leila, so I guess they agree with Leila's idea, but I'm just confused about Mappa's dance.

"... that's enough for one measure. The Royal Navy will make security tighter, but no one will have any trouble because the Royal People aren't really here. And..."

I give out a bottle of gold liquid.

This is the Ryukyun Ciel gave me.

"Ryukyu... If you create a golem with metal that you can change this shape, you can also create a golem that looks close to human. The outside creates the human one."

"Heh. That's a lot of metal."

Leila answered unexpectedly, with a sober face.

That's a lot of acceptance...

Well, if you look at being a world tree, it's not even that surprising.

"Oh... they still have a lot in the vault in the basement. I was just about to go fix the control device..."

If we fix the controls in the first place, Syel and the humans can wake up.

"Okay...... Ciel, is it okay to use it?

Ciel shook her body vertically, of course.

"Thanks, I knew I was underground..."

So we decided to follow Leila's plan and increase the number of our people.
