I'm leaving the council room, and I'm on my way to the mayor's mansion with that leg.

The next visit to the city of Nambonan is scheduled after the beginning of the year.

Once in the mayor's office, the clerks and staff brought in one case after another that they wanted to keep handled during the year.

Most of them were just confirmations, so I really didn't have much to do.

Drink up Odie's tea and I'll put my brush down and stretch my arms high.

"Here's the information I got from the merchant..."

It was the civilian of the Qualdenze army who said that.

I was sitting on a couch nearby organizing material, but maybe he was waiting for me to take a breath.

"It seems that there has been a clandestine purchase of food and weapons throughout the former Voystra. That can be quite a few, too. We may have a massive offensive before spring."

We naturally need supplies to start the war.

When you start buying and collecting them, rumors spread no matter how you hide them.

Civilians also hear rumors because they have many opportunities to interact with merchants. Either that or the rumor spread is better for the merchant. Because it leads to a chance to sell troops and weapons.

Inside, he said, "Husband, in the nearest neighborhood, you're buying weapons, right? Maybe he'll attack me. Yeah, well, actually, I didn't even handle weapons or troop food. What do you say? I'll keep it cheap for my husband who takes care of me, okay? Hihihihihi!"... and some merchants snitch on me.

"Speaking of which, there are rumors like this," said the oil merchant entering and leaving City Hall, not the kind of arms dealer sales talk. He told the civilian at last.

"What is a good number?

"Here's what I've put together"

One of the clerks stood up and brought the material to the mayor's desk.

Looks like I wrote it on a brand new wooden board, tight and easy to read even though the letters are small and dense.

"Ho, you're buying in pretty good"

The forecast for the quantity purchased states with a width on it, but even the smallest estimate seemed like a sizeable army could move it.

"We asked the Nambonan merchants to help us gather information. I think it's more accurate."

Because I use the room on the merchant network so skilfully, they had something to think about.

Apparently, the civilians are beginning to forge new cooperative relationships with the Nambonan merchants under room-on guidance and advice.

Since there are many merchants in the city of Nambonan who are familiar with the former Voystra, it did not seem so difficult to gather information on this one.

"The same goes for this finding, but it seems to be using merchants well, most importantly. Seeking room-on advice was also a good decision."

A room on would be just the right balancer for the civilian and merchant sides.

The slightly relieved looking civilians opened their mouths simultaneously.

"We have already sent word to the Hall and General Galphis. If only young people would pay attention."

"It is clear to everyone that in the spring the Qualdenze army will be in full swing. There is also a good chance that this buy-in will be ready for Cage Castle. But..."

"As Room-On used to say, the economic exhaustion of the old Voystra, including the city of Otheloria, seems to be more intense than we expected. We decided it was dangerous to buy them for defense."

It's the fruit of a collaborative study, but the civilians sitting on the couch begin their narrative.

When we gathered and listened to a number of Nambonan merchants, they said they were found to be buying in far more food than they had heard of.

I suppose you decided it was your chance to sell your charm to civilian members of the Qualdenze Army, and the Nambonan merchants just disclosed valuable information here.

"If you were to attack me, where do you think it would be?

In the last twelve years, I've studied military and combat quite a bit.

But I have memories of a previous life when I lived in a peaceful Japan as a civilian. I was constantly afraid of the possibility of misjudgment by unconscious assumptions, etc.

For this reason, I always seek the opinions of my surroundings regarding military, political, aristocratic relations, etc., and mix them with the thoughts within me.

"When it comes to the strongholds around here, there is only a front-line base where General Galphis is building a castle or the city of Nambonan. Given the realism, would it be occupation or destruction of a front-line base?"

"Yeah, you can't ignore the frontline base and take a fool's way to the city of Nambonan. General Galphis and the Nambonan garrison are interdicted and devastating."

And the front-line base, if you say so, is like a spear stuck in the Voystra plain, and from the old Voystra, it shouldn't be so blind.

"Well, if Castle Rishleaf falls at the foot of the frontline base, they'll never be able to cross the night in peace again."

The opponents currently being fought by the Qualdenze family can be divided into three main parts.

The first is the present Imperial Duke family, which once reigned as the royal family of the Kingdom of Voystra. This is what my grandfather wants most to destroy.

The second is the aristocratic family that was subordinate to the Kingdom of Voystra and is now an Earl, Viscount and Baron in the Empire.

The third is the aristocracy, which came from factional strife within the Empire to belong to the former Voistura faction.

Of these, only the second and third, in fact, have been invaded by my grandfather Galphis. I have never invaded the mainland of my uncle, the Duke of Hate Empire.

It is now that we have become a nobleman of the Empire, but once we had enough power to ride the king by name, and even now we still have a high territorial power that is not national. Neither was my grandfather's brain muscle enough to help.

Occupying about two-thirds of the area of the Imperial Duke's territory, the Voystra plain is one of the continent's leading barn zones supported by fertile land and abundant water resources.

The Imperial Duke Territory, which softly encloses the Voystra plain, also has a large civilian population.

If you make a city demographic ranking for the El Oro continent based on my arbitrariness and prejudice, the city of Oseloria will eat to the top. Are the top 10 certain, difficult places within the fifth place, etc.?

In addition, there are many fields in Imperial Duke territory. Sometimes resources can be taken from the field so that rock salt can be taken from the field in Newnelly City.

In the Duke of the Empire territory, quality stone materials can be taken, and there are also delicious fields where mineral resources can be taken.

Moreover, the field is deployed from north to south of the Great River as if it were a fort that obstructs the invasion from the Qualdenze family, making it a natural factor.

Other distinctive things, the kingdom of Voystra was a slightly rare country on the El-O continent, where royalty was relatively strong and other aristocrats were subordinated to the aristocrats who were kings.

The aristocracy, which was the minister's position during the Voystra kingdom, now became the Earl, Viscount, Baron, etc. of the Empire, and nominally a reciprocal position between the imperial aristocrats. However, there is still an upward and downward relationship at that time.

Assuming you storm the Imperial Duke's territory without thinking about it, it is likely that the reinforcements of the former Dependencies will come in unison and become isolated and returning in enemy lands.

That's why my grandfather and father have spent twenty years carefully hunting down that imperial duke.

The front-line base where my grandfather dawned on the castle is a bridge of sorrow to invade the Imperial Duke Voystra Plains.

It was already ten years away that a front-line base would have been possible if it had been.

Originally my father's, if you can't make it with that, it's my long term plan to overthrow the Duke of the Empire.

The plan was already in motion at the time I was born in El Oro continent, which makes me feel like a Japanese who somehow got their house built with three generations of loans.

It should be noted that the Castle of Lyshreef, which appeared in the story of the Civilians, is a defensive castle situated in the northernmost part of the vast Voystra plain and built on a small high mountain.

Something like the strongest shield to protect the Voystra plain, and hence the city of Otheloria, from the Qualdenze family?

Because there are many wide roads and traffic rushes leading to various places, the nobles of the old Voystra feel daggered down their throats all the time, assuming that they are subdued by the Qualdenze army.

It will be more than fifty years old, but at the time of unifying the western part of the continent, where the rampant turmoil of herds persisted, Emperor Jinker En had led a great army into the kingdom of Voystra.

At that time, we attacked southwards at once from the area currently controlled by the Qualdenze family, but anecdotes remain that the Castle of Lyshreef was spared the castle from falling by the sword.

Even the Jinker En Emperor couldn't drop it, the impenetrable Castle of Rishleaf. Its name is also famous within the Kingdom of Levios.

It should be noted that the Royal Voystra, who felt the momentum of Emperor Jinker En on his skin in this battle, surrendered just before the second invasion arrived and even offered it to his daughter after promising to dismantle the kingdom.

In fact, Emperor Ferrolt, the current emperor of the Jinker En empire, is the son of the daughter offered at this time.

Emperor Jinker En welcomed the daughter of the Royal Voystra, offered as a hostage, as the rightful wife of his own son Arginis, and chose to retain the power of the Kingdom of Voystra.

And a few years later, Emperor Jinker En proclaimed his country throughout the continent.

If you think of the current emperor, who has lost his authority, you know perfectly well that it was a mistake to take in the kingdom of Voystra.

The Jinker En Emperor, with numerous aliases such as the spokesperson of the turmoil, the heroic king and the West Sea dragon, was also probably vulnerable to domestic politics.

"We are constantly placing surveillance soldiers at key points. It is possible to immediately send a fast horse to the city of Newnelly when we have confirmed the invasion of the old Voystra. Rest assured."

They say there are a number of surveillance soldiers between the city of Nambonan and the front-line base, as well as near Castle Rishleef.

If we were to move the army, it would be rumours in the neighborhood, and it would take time there to gather soldiers no matter how quickly. It's unlikely the surveillance soldiers will miss that.

A knight's army marches at a good rate because his health is lowered by magic, but there's plenty of time before he wakes up and leaves.

"... no, make sure you get the early horses out first when there's a disturbing move even if you can't get confirmation of the invasion. It will cost a little, but I don't mind. This is the most important time. I've never gone beyond caution. Let's talk to my father about it."

The army led by the knight marches fast, but there is an army that moves faster than that. It is an army led by the nobleman, the Lord Ancestor.

An overwhelming magic ancestor can increase the speed of the march at once by strengthening the soldiers under his command with intense magic.

If the old Voystra is truly stuffed with cuts, it is possible that the nobility will lead the army.

Ordinary aristocrats often appear in battle if they are basically self-governing in dedicated defense, but they rarely come all the way to enemy lands.

But when I think about the investigation of the civilians and the progress of the room on, it kind of makes me nervous.

We need to respond quickly to the movements of the army led by the nobles. Confirmation work is important, but if there is a disturbing move, I want to get a first report for now.

"Ha! Then I'll tell the army from us."

It's a war my grandfather and father started, so I want it cleaned up by the time it's my turn.

We must not leave a burden on the next generation.

Clear the job, I'm going back to the perverted mansion.

Sleeping here lately has always been a perverted mansion.

"Welcome back, sir"

When I entered the Rave room, a beautiful woman greeted me with a smile on her face.

The bathing seems to have been done a long time ago, in bedtime clothes but the body is not on fire.

I sat on the couch taking Ravé's hand while we just had an exchange.

We usually keep kissing each other and come mate, but I have something to say first today.

I need to talk to Ralph.

"Yes?"

I'll go back to Newnelly City, touching Rave's body.

I have a lot to do on New Year's Eve when I'm a noble son.

Ravé doesn't take him to Newnelly City.

Because the best way to hide her presence from Eve is to leave it in the city of Nambonan.

It's not necessarily how much of a pause I made, and if there were two beautiful elves in the same city, some information wouldn't get to Eve's ear.

"Huh..."

Ravé blued his face when I told him I was going to be absent. Her complexion changes and her expression solidifies into a crisp.

I started shaking. I squeezed Ravé's hand hard and kissed her cheek.

"I'm not dumping Ravé"

"So, but..."

"Newnelly City will have a different environment than here. Rave's gonna be tough too."

"... well, still, I'd like to be with your husband"

Shin, and how adorable the leaning rave is.

Do you deliberately pull my arms subtly and push them against my chest?

The softness made my cock beefy by accident.

"I think it would be better for Rave to be with the daughters of the Mansion.... where there are a lot of people you don't know?

"Ugh..."

Rave blends well into the circle of protective daughters, and the servants are the only women except Tesh.

The Perverted Mansion is a safe place for her.

"Besides, New Year's Eve and I are really busy. So I don't even know if I can go see him at night. Then Ravé will be alone."

"Oh, that's..."

"I care so much about Rave. That's why I don't want to make you feel hard.... Trust me."

I grinned at Ravé and hugged my body thoughtfully.

Her breasts crumble and snap on my chest. It feels really comfortable.

Ravé moves his mouth around a few times so he can bite my words off. Maybe he tried to argue, but in the end, he stayed silent.

"Rave"

I turn my hand around the back of Ravé's head, my eyes narrow and my lips close.

"Your husband..."

Lips flutter with each other, and stretched tongues intertwine.

We exchanged saliva as we felt each other breathing and felt the softness and warmth of our lips.

My testicles are so desperate to produce their children that they are likely to reach operational limits.

"I haven't seen you for a while. Plenty to plant my seeds in Rave this evening."

In the end, I ejaculated three times in the rave that night.

The grades for today's sexual volume are one shot at Ravé early in the morning, two shots at Anna by day, and three shots at Ravé at night.

I somehow feel something similar to a cycle hit.

When fertilized, let's treat it like home base.
