The Marquis’ Eldest Son’s Lascivious Story

Today is the second day since the fall of Nambonan.

It's the tenth day since we left Newnelly Castle.

i.e. the tenth day of the Ona ban.

I had already wandered around the city of Nambonan under control.

Though not comparable to the hustle and bustle of the day of the fall, tension and tense air was felt from all over the city.

"And you're a lot quieter than I imagined. I had the impression that we were going to be fought completely."

"Was it already the council, not the lord of this city...... City representatives are offering to surrender to prepare a forum for discussion. There will be nothing a mere citizen can do. And it looks like the city guards are actively hunting the resistance."

If you look at the Nambonan citizens on the road, they seemed to be walking very wary about the humans they thought were the guards.

People living in the same city are hanging out with each other, so you won't be distracted.

"If residents get bees or anything like that here and now, the Nambonan side of the bargain will be disadvantaged, so as the ruling side, we will desperately keep it down."

"You think you can negotiate decently, even though the city is already in a state of control. It's just a city of merchants."

Commercial city/Nambonan.

Its city, located on the banks of the Great River, was originally one of the cities within the Jinker En Empire.

The imperial inheritance unrest, which ended in the fall of the second generation emperor, was to heavily repaint the map of the empire, turning Nambonan, which was an uncharacteristically mediocre city located inside the national territory, into a border city overnight.

That border was more than anything else the border between the Jinker En Empire and the Kingdom of Levios.

At the time, the lord of the Empire, who ruled Nambonan, was a careless man, so he decided that he could not protect this land or anything else. He pulled up his troops early and consolidated his defenses in another city off the border.

Even if the soldiers can pull, the people have no place to pull.

The inhabitants of Nambonan, praying to the Great Spirit of the Sun that no war fire would arrive, resolved not to rely on nobility to defend their homeland, where they were born and raised, but to exercise autonomy solely on their own civilians.

From the results, Nambonan was fortunate not to be caught in the war.

On the contrary, unlike other borders, there were times when security was good, and value was created as a relay point for pedestrian trade routes.

Moreover, the city, where vested interests also disappeared with the dominion of the Lords, was also a dream city for merchants.

Several powerful merchants were elected to the council established as the governing body and developed to an unparalleled size as a commercial city.

Nambonan develops his own autonomy.

Even when the former lord, who saw Nambonan turned into a golden city, tried to return to his ruler, Nambonan rose up his own army and defeated him.

Nambonan was no longer an imperial border city, but so independent that it could be called an urban state.

From mediocre to border cities, and commercial cities.

It only took about twenty years to get on with them. It was a history of Nambonan upheaval.

"Oh, isn't that Lord Wilke?"

When I was talking to the escort, they called me from behind.

There was a toad man...... not a toad face and a body so full of meat that his neck was buried, and a middle-aged old man, Viscount Galliana, characterized by a creepy grin.

He is a villain no matter how he sees it.

"This, Viscount Galliana. What's wrong, in a place like this?"

Even though we came under the control of the Qualdenze coalition, we can't even say that there is still no guerrilla presence in the city.

Even though there are soldiers of the Qualdenze coalition waiting at the main points of the city, it is a strange story that the nobleman, Viscount Galliana, who is also the head of the Galliana family, is taking a leisurely walk.

"Hey... it's the same reason Lord Wilke did."

Viscount Galliana's face with a beard and a grin was so spiteful that he suspected he was really on his side.

Well, if my purpose is the same as mine, I can't help but grin evil.

What I get confused about going into the city on purpose is to hold a woman.

You found out you've been suffering from abstinence since the expedition, and my grandfather suddenly came to my formation this morning and said, "Bring me a woman in the city."

Sasu, your grandfather can talk!

That's why I had numbonan at the same time as I had breakfast.

"And that's the Marquis' man, with only a few escorts, that's a mind-boggling thing. I heard about your work on the battlefield. Like a ghost."

There are only five escorts around me right now. You'd be a little more if you included what you refrain from in the back, but less.

There appear to be nearly thirty escorts around Viscount Galliana just visible. When I activated detective magic, I felt like there were a lot of handlers.

"It's action because we know there's no big deal in the city with wide-area detection magic. At first, I was going to go into the city by myself, but your grandfather put me on guard."

There's nothing big about enemy magic. If he is, he's about a nobleman in the Qualdenze coalition.

I can see that the escorts have become more alert. Viscount Galliana in front of me is magical enough to raid me. They are wary of being assassinated in the midst of the disturbances in the city.

"I worked for the council in Nambonan until a few years ago. So this place is like a garden. It's been a while since I've wanted to look around the city."

Viscount Galliana looked far away and narrowed her eyes, as if she would miss it.

Viscount Galliana, made up of civilians, was originally a merchant. But it's my first ear that I was a councillor in Nambonan.

"Depending on what Lord Wilke wants, I may be able to offer some advice."

Viscount Pepper and Galliana began to talk about the information in the city even though they wouldn't even ask.

It was useful information for me to guide Nambonan's geography, such as the rich section with lots of boxed warrants, the section with lots of civilians, and the section with the whorehouse.

"... which way is Viscount Galliana going?

"It's a commercial district.... Someone who interrupted my business during the merchant era should still be setting up a store. His wife and daughter in front of him... whoa."

Viscount Galliana stopped speaking after coughing so deliberately.

After all, he looks good for a villain.

I came to the commercial district with Viscount Galliana because I was anxious to get to the other district locations.

Viscount Galliana walked to the intended merchant hall early, so I was flunking around the commercial district with my escort.

"Whoa, you're open."

Then, despite the cities under control, there were stores that were open.

As far as the painting on the sign goes, it's probably a liquor store.

Nothing. I don't blame anyone for underage drinking in this world, but I feel that it might somehow affect my physical growth and I try not to drink as much as I can.

I have to drink at a social party or something, but if I do, I'm going to drink it after I'm over 20.

I went into the store because the air was dry and I was a little thirsty. It would be nice if it were a beverage without alcohol.

"There you are."

"Give me something to drink. Number of people."

I leaked a voice that just seemed a little dissatisfied with the fact that the escorts couldn't drink alcohol.

No, don't drink during the escort, you guys.

A jock for six, including an escort, was placed at a table nearby. I guess that means sit here. Follow quietly.

"Young lady, I have no problems with drinks"

All the escorts I've got are magical, and some of them can use magic to test the poison.

I also ran an appraisal just in case to make sure it was a safe drink.

"Is this tea?"

The wooden jock contained tea with hot air, among other things.

It smells just a little like jasmine tea.

"It's a tea of flowers you can take near here, customer."

"Hmm? Really? Smells good."

"Does not knowing this mean that the city hired mercenaries? That was tough, you guys. At times like this, it's best to drink and forget about it. Tea would be delicious."

Quick to say, that waitress has gone to another table to carry the liquor.

Apparently, they didn't find out we were the occupying forces.

The family crest cloak was left in the main unit, and the escort may have been thought of as just a mercenary regiment because it's a brown cloak to keep an eye out.

In the first place, the general soldiers of the coalition forces of Qualdenze are forbidden to leave the formation made at the main points of the city. The citizens of Nambonan never come into contact with the coalition forces of Quordenze unless they go out of their way to see it.

Watch the air in the tavern as you drink tea and moisten your throat.

The tavern, which is also about the size of an elementary school gymnasium from what I said in my previous life, somehow felt like it was turning into something else.

"We could still fight! Why did the council surrender!

"It was a big mistake to launch into the field in the first place! Why didn't you cage!?

"What are you waiting for in a cage when reinforcements don't come!? You're waiting for me to starve to death!

"I can't forgive you for keeping high taxes on the fortress line and abandoning them immediately. I don't know what kind of facility it was for."

"... it was a mistake to defy the Qualdenze family in the first place"

"The traitor Qualdenze!

"Isn't it suicide itself to field a coalition of nobles against you!

"If I'd known the Red Ghost of the Empire was coming, I wouldn't have come to a city like this."

"You stupid council that failed to protect Nambonan's independence! I will never forgive you!

"I'm fine. Among the occupying forces was Viscount Galliana of the Levios nobility. Viscount Galliana would protect Nambonan."

"There's no way you can fight a cage castle!

"You greed-driven Qualdenze people! You're kidding me!

"This city was over when all the surrounding territories became Qualdenze territory!

"Mercenaries fleeing immediately! You guys were hired for Nambonan taxes, so you should have fought and died!

"What!? You coward who lied and hit the Red Ghost that the opponent to fight is the army of the current Lord of Qualdenze! What a city of merchants that can't even keep a contract. Naturally!

"There was Viscount Galliana, the star of Nambonan!? Good, Nambonan will be saved!

"I'm done! It's over! Our beloved Nambonan is over!

The tavern seemed to be full of mercenaries and patriotism… no, residents full of love for the city.

It is interesting that citizens who occasionally complain of a thorough anti-war are being secretly taken by the city guards. Maybe this tavern is a moth light that gathers disturbing molecules.

And they're treating me like a messiah. I think Viscount Galliana is about to raid a former rival store.

It was such a strange space to heat up everywhere and develop into a beating, spit back over drunk liquor, and laugh crying.

"The citizens of Nambonan love Nambonan."

"You know what I mean?"

A beauty waitress picked up the words she spilled with the intent of each person.

"Nambonan became a border city when I was six. That's where the current Nambonan started. As far as the aristocrats who spared their lives and fled, we who were just civilians rose up..."

The history of Nambonan, which she finally tells, is the same in large part as that of the material she read in the warehouse.

But the confusion at the time when it became a border city, the changing state of the city, and the hardship stories that were not written in the dossier were the only things that the parties could do, which was very interesting.

Forsaken civilians and abandoned mediocre cities.

Such is the story of them establishing autonomy and growing into a commercial city.

If you noticed, the tavern was in town, and everyone was listening to her tell the Nambonan Success Story.

Has the man who seems to be a citizen been impressed, spilling a whimper and stuck to his desk without even caring about his eyes?

"I feel like I've been serving in this store for a long time. The vibrancy of this city is not lost to the Imperial Capital. The best city you can live without being humbled by your nobility."

By the way, voices of support come in from the men.

Apparently she has been a billboard daughter in this tavern since she was six years old, and seemed really important to me from citizens and pedestrians who know the turbulent times.

Given Nambonan's history, I guess that's a big part of what it feels like to be still idle when it comes to being around 26 years old.

This seems to be the biggest tavern in the city, so there must be so many people who have seen her grow.

She's beautiful.

"Oh no, you're getting a little wet. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! Nambonan can't beat Qualdenze!

Soon she held her fist as if to shake off the tears that had accumulated in her eyeballs and laughed at the entire store.

"Whoa! You can't lose!

"Anna, we'll protect you!

"You are the symbol of Nambonan! You're gonna lose, squirt!

"Anna won't give it to the Qualdenze Army! Don't worry!"

"Well said! I'm so proud of Nambonan!

Wow the store was vibrant and the atmosphere was bright all at once.

"I can see that. But did you get to know Nambonan?... Hey, what city are you guys from? I knew you were here to join the war, didn't I? Let me talk to you. I like listening to other cities."

She looked back here so that she could illuminate and opened her mouth to deceive.

Somehow I felt like I was going to get a hoax. Or my libido has grown.

It's the tenth day of the Ona ban.

It's day ten.

Day ten.

"Oh, we've come to war"

"I knew it was. Mercenaries, huh? When I see the youngest you look like a leader, are you a warrior with magic?

I can see that the people in the tavern are listening to our conversation.

I laughed and replied no.

"Isn't that a mercenary regiment? You're here to fight a war?

I got up.

I can see they all paid attention.

"I've come to war. Except there seems to be a misunderstanding."

Look around the entire store.

The city guard is watching this one.

I said slowly so that everyone could hear me.

I've come to crush Nambonan.
