The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

The occupying troops of the Amid Empire, which occupies and governs Sauron, have been worried that the normalization of dominance will not progress at all.

"I'll do it, Duke of Malmö. In this state, my position in my home country ..."

A middle-aged man with a hairline receding to the top of his head in a meeting room at the Duke of Sauron Duke's fort confiscated by the occupying army had a blue line on his forehead.

"Yeah, I know you know!"

The duke of Malmö shouts hysterically .... A cousin of the Emperor Maskhuzal, the Emperor of the Amid Empire, beat and shouted at the heavy round table.

It was this spring that Duke Malmö was appointed general commander of the Sauron Occupation Army.

The occupation policy, which had not progressed for many years since the occupation, was bravely determined to take the leap forward to the royal and sacred ancestors of the Duke of Malmö, linked to the hero Bellwood and the imperial family.

However, he got stuck shortly after his arrival.

The "improvements" and "measures" that the Duke of Malmö and his vassal conceived had already been tested by their predecessors. That is the current situation.

Regardless of whether the tax is fully exempted with a due date or the infrastructure such as the improvement of roads, the Sauron territories will not fall into the Amid Empire. Called the "Occupation Army" by any time, he never rebelled, but in favor of the Resistance in the background, waiting for the orphans of the Duke of Sauron to escape to the Orbaum election.

In the homeland, the discrimination policy of the new races of Vida, which are already common sense, such as beast races and giant races, is not a problem at all, since the emperor Maskhuzar has set a long deadline until implementation. However, problems have emerged with other policies.

Duke Malmö is trying hard to manage it with the duke army he brought in, but it has only worsened to date.

"The people's persistent resistance to the construction and conversion of the temple of Arda remains unchanged and workers are not gathering. On the contrary, soldiers who have called for recruitment collide with the people and the wounds have been cut off."

The Amid empire defines the state religion as the “God of God”, a religion of the gods that has the top of Alda, commonly known as Aldaism. The policy to change the Vida religion that had flourished in the Duke of Sauron into it had not progressed at all.

"And again ... if you have dozens of armed soldiers that are intimidating, the commoners will be rampaged so easily. You should have permission from the Duke and have enough soldiers. Why not do it? "

"No, it's like ... the first thing that went up was a soldier, who was also a member of the Duke of Malmo ..."

"What !?-Do those who are in the Duke Army say that they behaved like that !?"

The civilian, yelled at by the captain of the Dukes of Malmö, apparently unaware of the incident, continued to report with a blue face.

"Everything, a beast race kid fell in a puddle, and mud splashed on his shoes. When he tried to discipline the child, his children's parents seemed to be in the way ... blood spilled on his head. A soldier punished his father on the spot shortly after he stopped. "

"That led to a riot. Did he not tell you that soldiers did not have the power to punish commoners?"

"Shut up! I guess the soldier hadn't been hired since he was still hired, but your secretary would have asked you to go to the scene with only" not enough numbers "!"

"I've requested it, but it's up to you to be who you actually dispatch!"

A man who seems to be the boss of the reported civilian speaks to protect him, and the chief of the samurai who dresses the Duke forces yells, and the man yells.

And Duke of Malmo exclaimed, "Shut up!"

"Is there a next report?"

"Haha! The reconstruction of the fort in Syura Autonomous Region has been delayed. Estimates suggest that if you can send five soil-attribute magicians and a part of an engineer, you will be able to catch up by the end of autumn. But ... "

"Did you say in early summer, 'I can catch up at the end of summer'! What do you mean, even though you're dispatching a valuable skill among magicians?"

"I'm sorry! The construction materials and workers gathered so badly that construction didn't proceed."

"Well, are there any other reports !?"

Civilians report one after another to the duke spitting and yelling, with a blue and stiff face. There are plenty of complaints from adventurer guilds, mercenaries, commercial sorcerers, and petition books from various guilds.

In addition, military officers reported that the reorganization of the Resistance Suppression Unit, which had disappeared in the spring, had not progressed, and that more and more occupation soldiers were not seriously ill but could not move due to illness.

These issues are not only the responsibility of the Duke of Malmö and his vassal, who have not been in service for six months.

(Everything is the result of the resistance organization ... no, it's all due to obstruction)

Baron Cuoco Lux, who soaks his throat with tea, was sitting at the end of the meeting room, watching the dusky complexion look like a stranger.

The misfortune of the Amid Empire's occupation of Sauron began with allowing two powerful resistance organizations to form. The "Sauron Liberation Front" led by the "Liberation Princess Knight", and the "New Sauron Duke Army" led by Raymond Paris, the orphan of the Duke of Sauron.

The two resistance groups became the hopes of the occupants who were trying to get their occupation into their everyday state by the occupying forces and maintained their rebellion against the empire.

As a result, the occupation forces have been unable to recruit local humans as workers to repair and repair military facilities such as guards and forts.

After many checks and hiring of the commoners, the incident continued with a high percentage of members of the New Duke of Sauron being involved.

It is not a simple matter to bring labor and military recruiters from the homeland and the nearby Mirung shield state.

There are disturbing elements in the dependent nations, including the shield nations, and even in the empire's homeland. If it joins the resistance, it can be unstable until the homeland's security.

Without it, Milg Shield has not yet completed the reorganization of its troops lost three years ago during the Border Mountains expedition.

It is bad for workers to bring in large numbers from empires and dependent states.

First, the labor costs are simply high. Aruda, the state religion, stipulates that "pay reasonable compensation to workers." Wages cannot be unduly reduced.

And when workers from the occupied nations work, they are dissatisfied with Sauron's commoners and professional guilds, saying they have been "lost employment." At worst, it could lead to a riot between ordinary people and workers.

It's like making your own way to get the resistance, even if you don't go to the worst.

For all these reasons, the borders of the Mirung shield have been closed off and the traffic has been severely restricted, but this has slowed logistics.

Originally, each duke territory of the Orbaum election was independent before the founding of the kingdom, so that it was able to rotate to some extent alone.

But not everything is abundant. It also frustrates merchants and commercial guilds who were profiting from trade.

The inability to go elsewhere, not just those involved in commerce, has prevented mercenaries from mercenary guilds who originally traveled the battlefield like migratory birds from earning money.

The magician guild sorcerers have difficulty finding the materials they need for research. Top sorcerers, even those who have been allegedly dangerous to the occupation forces, have been monitored and have anointed the fire as research contraindicated by Aldaism has been banned.

The adventurer's guild is still good, but it's the same for adventurers who can't leave Sauron territory. In addition, adventurers of class D and below are more often employed by people and merchants than by nobles. If they hate the occupation army and hate them, their income could drop sharply.

And the occupation forces are not infinite.

The duke army of the Duke of Malmo is a considerable army of nobles. However, there is no reason to bring all troops to Sauron. It must be left to some extent to maintain the security of the territory. Also, even if you bring in too many people, you will not be able to keep up with maintenance costs and places to stay. Therefore, only a third of the Duke of Malmo joined the occupying army.

However, the sick man is coming out of the duke army that brought him. It is natural that sick people will appear because they are staying in places with different climates for a long time ... It seems that it was bad that security and security in the Duke territory originally made the expedition unfamiliar with the Duke of work .

It is not without our means to turn around these problems. You just have to defeat the resistance.

It sounds like a deception if the resistance goes well, but the occupying troops will not be able to freely collect people and things in the Sauron territory because of the resistance's obstruction and raids, and the ordinary people will always be Does not flutter.

Not everything is going well from the day after the defeat of the Resistance, but it is certain that the situation will improve.

The opportunity came when he defeated Raymond Paris and his younger brother Rick Paris in New Duke of Sauron at once.

If the remaining Sauron Liberation Front could be destroyed, the occupation would have taken a number of steps now. Duke Malmo would not have been assigned.

However, the "Duke of the New Sauron", which had been in the process of becoming a knight of the Liberation by "Liberation Princess Knight", was absorbed into the "Sauron Liberation Front" and reorganized into a large and strong organization.

And since the elite Force Suppression Troops have been annihilated this spring by the elite Forces led by The Liberation Princess Knight, there is little hope that the current occupying troops will be able to realize the Resistance Suppression.

(Especially the top is Duke of Malmo)

The shouting of Duke of Malmo reached the ear of Kuoko, who sighed in heart.

"Yeah, lowly guys! I'm doing a security job if I'm asking! If I don't like that, I should just hunt at the Makai!"

"Duke, if you don't care about the adventurer's guild to some extent, what if they contribute to the resistance?"

"If you can, ask the adventurer's guild to build a temple! You'll be able to carry stone even in that savage chain!"

"Well then, invading the guild's territory ..."

"What are those who do not cooperate in spreading the teachings of the holy and legitimate Arda ?! Together with the evildoers who worship evil wicked women!"

(Has it started again)

Cuoco is an insider who is sold by delicious ingredients and sells information to the resistance organization "Sauron Liberation Front". However, in addition to gastronomy, there was a motive to betray the country.

It was decided last winter that Duke Malmö would be appointed commander of the Occupation Army, and he heard that. The emperor chose the duke as a sacrifice sheep, including nobles, including Cuako, who had been dispatched at the same time.

(The Duke of Malmö is an overly religious deity of Alda who has strong ties to the Imperial Arda Temple, but the Empire also rejects Vida as violently as being considered extreme.)

Although the Amid Empire forbids worship of Vida, it is not recommended to degrade Vida itself. Vida made the mistake of spawning an extraordinary race through demons and disrupting the order of the world, but nevertheless was the god who created the world with the Ardas and fought the Demon King.

In other words, for many Aldaists, Vida is interpreted as a prisoner who has made mistakes and is being punished, returning to the god of life after some day of atonement.

However, it was the Duke of Malmo who abused the goddess as an evil villain. In the past, nobles have been famous for exclaiming the Pope as saying, "How do you know the law !?"

That's not all. The Duke of Malmo treats adventurers as lowly.

There are other problems besides values of faith.

In the empire and its dependencies, there is a tendency for military activity to rarely use adventurers. That is, long before the empire was founded, if a country hired a large number of adventurers as mercenaries to win wars with other countries and entered it, the ability to defeat monsters was insufficient, and damage from demons increased in various parts of the country, and wars began. Although he did not lose, there was a fact that the country was devastated.

That's not to say that they don't trust adventurers, but Duke Malmö doesn't consider the circumstances and unfairly discriminates them, except outside the common sense of Schneider in The Thunderstorm.

(But if you are still calm in the territory, it's still good. There is only a duke with a history, and the vassal is excellent, but ... the military officers including the samurai servant ...

(At least, the emperor knows that he may send things to the current Sauron territory to make things worse, but not turn around.)

Duke Malmo's frustration seemed to have peaked while Cuako was immersed in thinking to kill time before the barren meeting ended.

"Don't you, Maskhzar! Is this a duke of trapping this duke into a troubled occupied territory, enforcing the failure of the policy with me and the family of Duke of Malmö, and strengthening the emperor's own power?"

"Oh, man, please do not throw away the emperor!"

Surprisingly, the Duke of Malmo seemed to be thinking the same thing as Cuoco.

(I guess the duke can't be crushed, so I'm going to retire the current Duke of Malmö, but the debt-covered Baron's will be crushed easily. Well, that's okay ...

All you have to do is sell out your home and household goods, and return the remaining debt while doing adventure. The adventurer's guild has always been a convenience, and Kuoko himself has some confidence in Takei.

Since it was just about to collapse, I gave up.

(However, if you do poorly, you may be forced to leave home and live the religion for the rest of your life, or you may say that you took responsibility and decided yourself.)

Life is the only way to eat delicious food. I can't stand living in a simple temple. I'm sorry to die.

"Shut up! It's all because you are putting your hand on the Resistance! If everything is gone, everything goes well!"

(I'm glad I'm spending this wasted time on the Orbaum kingdom regaining Sauron territory in cooperation with Iris. I'm going down from the baron to the knights and possibly to the honorary noble. (Maybe you don't have to repay the debt.)

"In this case ... I have no choice but to call the 15 swords!"

However, the conclusions of the Duke of Malmo concluded that Cuoco had no room to keep his inner heart.

"A fifteen swords !? A secret unit directly under the emperor, derived from fifteen knights who helped the first emperor, Valshemit. It is said that each person has as much power as an A-class adventurer ... Did you do that? "

It's a surprising quark, but the duke's decision seems to have been surprising to the duke of Malmo.

"Surely, if you have fifteen swords, you can defeat them as quickly as the Resistance, but only the Emperor can move them. No matter how many palaces have the right to inherit the throne, it is impossible to move them."

"I bow to Mashukuzar! I would say that the authority of any of our dukes would fall, so if you rely on Mashukuzar before taking responsibility for the defeat, you will have less damage to my home!"

The decision to throw a pride may be sad, but it can be said that it is a bad decision. At least it's a much better decision than trying to do it yourself.

However, it was a bad situation for Cuoco.

(Iris's arm is probably about class C to class B for adventurers. It's an amazing skill considering her age.

There is no way that there is no one in the resistance organization comparable to an A-class adventurer ... If you do that, you will never get that ent syrup again! )

Kuoko was screaming in her chest.

Meanwhile, the band were moving toward the Arachne settlement.

The village of Gizania seems to be about three days away from the swamp. That sounds like a great distance, but the Arachne is only three days away on foot.

"Gizania's Lady, Walking Too Fast"

With three meters tall and a compass much longer than a person, Gizania's pace was so fast that Volks said that one big step and consequently fast walking stopped.

"I can't do it, I'm impatient ... I just walk fast"

The walking pace of Gizania who stopped by saying so was not a place to walk fast. It's just like a sprinting sprinter.

Thinking of being dull from his large body, Gizania skillfully manipulates his eight legs and kicks the ground with his claws to move quickly. Moreover, the upper body hardly shakes at that time.

"I understand my feelings and I can't catch up, but ... Are all Arachne's feet fast?"

When Basdia asked, Gizania nodded, "Yes."

"As we can see, Aracune has many legs, so everyone is fast. Large breeds like me do not turn well, but they are good at running straight."

It seemed unnatural that the Arachne had never contacted the Lizardman who lives in the swamps, although it was only about three days on foot, but it was equivalent to ten days on foot for people and lizardmen. It seems.

Often those Noble Orcs catch up. Of course, the orc was an energetic monster with a good rush, despite its appearance, so it may have been surprisingly quick.

There are, of course, other reasons not to contact the Lizardman besides distance. There was no need to simply go into the swamps.

The southern continent, which is east and west separated by the border mountain range, is roughly shaped like a long diamond shaped north and south. The northern end is Tarosheim, and the southern part is Onuma swamp. The Arachne and Noble Oak empires are the longest eastern and western regions.

Therefore, even if you do not go into swamps that do not match your ecology, there is more land available. Also, there are no magical foods if you are strong because the surroundings are all magical.

Of course, this is not to say that there were no adventurous people in various races. But most of them challenged to cross the east-west border mountains rather than the northern swamps.

Some of them may have set foot in the swamps, but at least there is no record of heterogeneity from the south in the history of Talosheim.

"Well, the princess Kuneria is fast?"

"Of course. Princess is a medium-sized species, much faster than me."

Gizania proudly asserts. Like Skylah, Arakne seems to be a special feature of the lower body of other races.

"It's fast, a princess ..."

Eleonora, however, did not focus on Arachne's racial values, but on her "Aracune princess who moves so fast".

"Surprised? Arakune's legs are fast."

"I'm sorry if I was bothered, because it was very different from the image of Arachne I heard outside."

"Speaking outside, outside the border mountains. It is said that the god of violence, Arda, is dominating ... Isn't this too bad?"

"Yes, I was active on the west side of the Amid Empire, especially when I caught a human being trapped with a strong thread like a spider from my head, or turned into a human being and seduced a man to seduce him. I've heard that, in general, it's thought to have a fascinating look and gesture. "

Eleonora's image of Arachne in the outside world was a notorious reputation he might have heard of in the Amid Empire, where the power of Arudaism was strong.

When Gizania heard it, she looked more aggressive than she had imagined.

"Then ... it's just a monster that mimics a woman. Didn't the cruel, valiant soldier tribe, the master of the savvy weaving, or the right figure of the Arachne tribe still come through?"

"Yes, I didn't even think it was a brave soldier race."

"Honestly I was unexpected too"

To Gizania, who says sorry, Eleonora and Vandaloo said so. After all, it seems that Arakne generally has no image of warriors or soldiers.

Ask Levia Princess and say so.

"The myth tells me that one of the races that fought with Vida and our founder Talos ... it remembers that he had skillfully used threads to entangle the warriors who followed Arda."

"What !! That's right ... maybe 100,000 years ago there were few large species like me.

But besides me, vampires and ghouls are treated outside like monsters themselves and persecuted. ''

"Yes ... vampires aren't out of the way."

"... well, yes, half-way."

Eleonora and Zadiris respond with a subtle face to Gizania, who said it would have been difficult.

The vampires of Bang Gaia continent are evil running dogs following the evil deity vampires, and the ghouls who repel are eating as prey and turning the captured woman into a family to be a tool to give birth to children, so it is not so strong Seems different.

"I'm more interested in the job Samurai."

It was subtle, but Basdia did a good job of changing the subject.

"[Samurai] is a reproduction of the job" Samurai "from the record of the hero Hilwillow. In the world where the heroes of Hill Willow were, they excelled in the hundred martial arts skills of" Samurai "long ago. Many soldiers were particularly good at handling single-edged swords, especially swords. ''

"Have hundreds of skills !? It's the world where the brave hero was ... then Gizania?"

"No, [Samurai] is not that much of a job. No sword has been able to be reproduced yet. Even me, a true [Samurai], I was able to kill my pursuers before being helped by Vandaloo. I would.

It is alleged that the true [Samurai] cut both swords and all the beasts riding enemy cavalry in battle. "

"I divide the cavalry with each ride ... I think that I can do the same thing as a normal knight and a war horse, but ... It was a terrible world considering that there were many such soldiers."

It seems that Gizania and Basdia have the same wavelength as female warriors.

(... Speaking of being a samurai only if you are excellent at martial arts, you must be a samurai if you are not good at martial arts. I guess I used it)

The inner mind Vandalu had put in the tsukkomi.

Then, while exchanging information with each other, defeating monsters that occasionally attack forests, small forests, and prairies where the grasslands are in checkered patterns.

The group reached the country where the Arachne people live.

Demon Explanation: Skoog Claw Widow

It is presumed that Skoog Claws that have been ranked up in a timed state are all races. Although the details are unknown, the ent syrup obtained by purifying the sap obtained from this demon seems to have a rich taste and aroma that is incomparable to ordinary ent syrup.
