The hero magician wants to relax. He was too active and targeted for his life, so we'll start over.

Nort Harwen is a land facing the Norte Sea in the northwest of the Kingdom of Verirald.

It is characterised by its elongation along the coastal area facing the Norte Sea. There are many villages that make fisheries their livelihood, but the heart of Nord-Harwen, Frustadt, is a city where trade is also thriving.

Nort Harwen, far from Tokitomo territory, but with the portal, he can come and go in no time.

Before I met Count Verger, I had SS intelligence personnel conduct a field investigation of Nort Harwen.

Information gathering is fundamental in order to stand in the way of the talks.... made me look into it, but Nort Harwen was in disaster. It's not a disaster, on a level.

I flew to Furstadt, a port town, using the portable portal installed by the decree.

Facing the Norte Sea, the town was lined with strong private houses united by brightly colored orange roofs. Right on the edge of town is the sea, and it feels just adjacent. Small boats, lots of boats, and if this town had remained until modern times in the world I was in, it could have become a tourist attraction.

The sky is an unfortunate cloudy sky. The wind is cold, but no sign of snow.

Head to Count Verger's residence with the Shapeshifter soldier who served as a preaching order. There is a castle-like building that is larger than the surrounding area, close to the sea. There, with a high spire, was the Lords' Hall.

The gatekeeper interacted with the preacher and was passed through the building without being waited for. Brightly colored walls. The painting of the ship is adorned while the decoration is also carried out.... Does the Count like ships?

They were put through the rooms and surprisingly had practical desks and chairs. About five minutes later, Count Verger arrived.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, Marquis Tokitomo"

A man who seems to be in his fifties. He has a thick brow, stylish moustache and a medium dandy look. I get the mysterious impression that I look like a Spanish man for some reason. But it also looked oriental somewhere.

"I'm sorry I didn't even welcome you. I am Grants Verger, lord of this place."

"I'm sorry for suddenly pushing you. My name is Jin Tokitumo. I'm a marquis. This is my friend Belle."

I will also introduce my partner in black cat properly. but Mr. Bell at the time just nodded and didn't speak up.

"I was told by the messenger that you were really quick to come"

Count Verger suggested a seat and began to talk about sitting himself.

"I saw you once at the King's Capital Spiral, when His Majesty's Successor was announced."

It was when Early was officially told in front of the crowd that she would be a 'woman' and Jarzy would be the next king. Apparently there was also Count Verger on that spot.

The maid prepared the tea and left when she was ready for use.

"Back then, he was just an adventurer, but now he's become a marquis"

"That's a big birth. Young, but big deal."

Count Verger was calm. I don't hate it, I can't see the seclusion. From his point of view, I would be a blue genius if I turned twenty.

"Actually, I wanted to meet you and talk to you when I had the chance."

"... Really?

"Yeah. And the battles that took place in the eastern part of the kingdom. Fighters and tanks active there… Willidis at its centre… I was convinced to hear that you were there"

As Count Verger stretched his spine, he switched words.

"You're Japanese, aren't you?

It was perfect Japanese. In other worlds, even though some species resemble Orientals, there will be names, but I can assure you that...

"Are you Japanese too?

If I give it back, Count Verger nodded.

"'Yes' and 'No'"

The Earl smiled small.

"You would be right that the previous life was Japanese. We will be reincarnated after death, to this day."

Summoned, sounds like a different kind of person from the past. It would definitely be because I made a clear affirmation in my previous life, after death, etc.

"Some of my memories are vague, but I remember I was Japanese and I had a son. The name was Nishimura… that's what they called it. I remember my last name, but I can't remember why my name is better."

Mr. Nishimura, who laughs bitterly, Count Verger.

Says he recovered his memories of his previous life when he was twenty-one years old, when he was wounded in a pirate crusade. Since then, he has ruled Nort Harwen as Earl.

"In a medieval level world, we've had a lot of difficulty, but we're proud to say that we've developed quite a bit. … though, being chased by everyday chores, we are halfway through what we were trying to make and we may not be able to do it in the end"

For example, a cannon? He said he had some knowledge, but had to be researched and developed from the materials that made up the cannon, which was difficult. Whatever, they made it with the added knowledge of future generations of this world, so they couldn't even make it very standout.

"We hear the Marquis Tokitomo is a wizard. I didn't really understand magic, and I thought it was like an occult, so your abilities didn't grow."

Seemed like a lot of hard work. Well, Japanese people, it's not a bad idea to chat with each other, but it's time to get down to business.

"The Count seems to know about tanks and fighters…"

"Yes. Right now, Nort Harwen is in a critical situation and cannot be dealt with by our territory alone. When I sent His Majesty Eman the text of the consultation, I also wondered if we could deal with it in fighters or something, but after that, things have gotten even worse."

First and foremost, the increase in piracy. Consequential raids on coastal settlements, looting, are taking place.

"This is a defensive sailboat, but the pirates are using small fast ships that cannot be captured inside."

Count Verger bit his lips in remorse. I snort.

"So if I had a fighter,"

"Yes, even if it wasn't a fighter, if there was even one destroyer in my previous life, I'd kick it off easily."

Destroyer...... Is this man, for a moment, a soldier in his previous life, or an associate of that system?

"Keep talking, more troublesome people than pirates have been out here lately."

Sahagin. It is a species that creates a dwelling in the water and has its own culture. But troublesome, they are fierce people who are belligerent against other intelligent races and recognize all but their own as enemies.

"Thank you, Nort Harwen, for creating a base. Like crusading, their opponents are in the sea. We have to intercept the enemies that come out, and we can't get our hands on them."

Enemies in the water? I wonder what the Willidis Army would do, when I thought about it, it was only about undine in a power suit for both surface and surface. Was an air carrier such as Ambal compatible with underwater? I don't know if I can use it without checking.

Thinking about it, it is noticed that there are no visions in our army that can overwhelm us in the water either. I didn't even think about it because I don't have a submarine or anything in the Great Empire, but it was a blind spot that I didn't have any means of manipulating or attacking warcraft in the sea.

"Third, as I wrote in my sentence to Your Majesty, the deployment of their combat sailboats is progressing to the ports of the Kingdom of Shaville under the occupation of the Great Empire, and we are also sending reconnaissance vessels to the coastal areas"

With attacks by the Sahagin and pirates, settlements along the Nord Harwen coast are almost devastated. From the Great Empire, unless you encounter them, it means you can land anywhere you want.

"My Nort Harwen has only two large combat sailboats, one medium and four small boats. If the Great Imperial Navy attacked us, we probably wouldn't be able to prevent it."

Count Verger frowns.

"And finally, the biggest problem is that giant Kraken is now on an island called Fluff, which is closer than here. This is the most troublesome thing."

I knew it because I was letting you look it up beforehand, but don't get more realistic when people on the ground still tell you. The northern sea was in a more dangerous state than we could have imagined.
