King William von Mental.
The Mental Kingdom is now surrounded by the Snake Empire in three directions.
Because Uncle Snakes and Uncle Abbott are independent of the mental kingdom and named the Snakes kingdom.
The faction houses of the two houses, and the houses with friends, were also integrated into the Snakes kingdom, and the houses that were sandwiched between those houses could not bear to be smashed by the sandwich, and descended into the Snakes kingdom.
The Kingdom of Snakes then invaded the Zabine Empire on the west side.
It took only a month to capture the vast Zabine Empire and proclaimed the Snake Empire.
As a mental kingdom, it was not attacked by the signing of a friendship treaty with the Snake kingdom, but it is now the Snake kingdom of the Snake Empire to the west and north, and the Plum kingdom of the Snake Empire to the south.
The only unbounded direction is the eastern forest, commonly known as the Dragon Forest, or Wyburn, the habitat of the flying dragon, which is a very troubling land.
In addition, the Snake Empire almost seized the means to obtain salt.
Because until now, the Plum kingdom, which was a friendly country in the south, and the salt came in from its own territory in the north, but most of it became the Snake Empire.
It's like going out into the sea through a dragon forest in the east.
There is also the possibility of a Wyburn coming out to the nearby coast, and there are many water dragons and dangerous seas around there.
Slight rock salt and little salt fields.
We have to rely mostly on imports from the Snake Empire.
Next, iron, which is also a third of the Snake Empire's production area, has been dug from the remaining mines to secure the required quantity, but production is gradually decreasing, so this will also depend on imports.
Next, alcohol.
Whether it is made in another region due to the independence of Snake territory, which was the largest producer of alcohol, or wheat, the ingredient of which is consumed as food for the people, there is little extra food and less alcohol to turn into alcohol, so domestic alcohol is reduced and prices rise.
That's where imported liquor from the Kingdom of Snakes comes in, but the trouble is that there's a dispute over quality Snake liquor.
Snake Kingdom liquor tastes good and is very popular, so the aristocrats want it so much that they even formed a faction around the liquor.
I lost my faction, but I managed to do it again.Even idiots say attack the Snakes kingdom for alcohol.Well, I've disposed of it.
"The Plum Kingdom has become the Snakes Empire, and will you make us the Mental Kingdom of the Snakes Empire?"
As he murmured, Duke Dixon, the prime minister,
"I can't stop fighting over alcohol.But is it good? "
And I returned the words.
Kevin, the Duke of Dixon's three sons, is now noble in the kingdom of Snakes.
Well, my sister is the wife of Emperor Snakes.
Kevin made his mark on the battlefield as an employee of Snake Emperor Patrick van Snakes.
The wife is Aisha, the sister of the court sorcerer Decause von Canaan in Japan.
I hear Aisha is the emperor's cousin and is favored.
It goes without saying that Decaux is also a cousin.
The heart of our country is full of relatives and friends of Emperor Snakes.
Wayne von Simon, the captain of the Imperial Guard, is the best friend of Emperor Snakes.
"Well, Patrick and I still have a good relationship, and I have a letter from my sister saying I'll give you a preference if you want to join us.Either way, they hold most of the salt, so there's no turning against it.Wouldn't it be better for Patrick to enter the King on good terms?Patrick's son, who was born the other day, is my nephew, but he's not always friendly to us when he grows up and takes over the throne. "
If you answer that,
"I know what you're thinking."
And Prime Minister Dixon lowers his head.
"What, when we look at the state of the Kingdom of Plum, we don't change what we do.I'll just be king of my kingdom. "
Tell that to the Snakes Imperial Embassy in our kingdom.
Later, Emperor Patrick van Snakes came aboard with my sister Sonaris.
Patrick's descent from the Winged Dragon has remained the same as before, but he may have gained a little more power.
"Welcome. I'm sorry you came all the way."
When I talk to you for a while,
"No, I'll be here sooner than my brother."
That's how I hold Patrick's hand with my right hand out.
Even now, I'm glad you called me older brother.
"Oniisama, long time no see!"
That's what I'm talking about, my nephew's baby in my sister's arms.
"Sona and Alphonse seem to be fine, and above all..."
And while looking at his nephew, Alphonse,
I'm fine ~
And my sister replied in a good mood.
Are you sure?
To my question,
"Fine. It's like a brotherhood."
And, smiling, Patrick's answer came back.
My country has to pay taxes to the Empire, but my mental kingdom has been told that 10% of tax revenue is good.
This is better than ten fifths of the Kingdom of Plum.
It should be noted that the other affiliated countries are 30%.Still less than in the Zabine Empire.
"Thank you."
And when I say,
"Instead, please keep your stupid nobles under control.There's still someone complaining to me. "
That's what Patrick said.
"Haha, thank you. I've eliminated the tricks, but there are still a lot of people resenting Patrick.I mean, I've known since I became king, but you've done too much Patrick.Did you pull it a little? "
Yes, since becoming king, I have learned the full story of what Patrick did in our country.
"It's my creed not to be forgiving to those who face me."
And Patrick doesn't look bad.
"Well, I'm getting help from Canaan and Simon, so I can turn it off soon.So you're drinking with me after this, right?I've been happy since morning that Canaan can drink brandy for a long time. "
"My brother Decos and Wayne said to bring me a good drink.If you don't have any plans, why don't you come with me? "
And he invited me.
Are you sure?
And when I heard,
"Of course!"
And smiling, my brother-in-law.
Mental Kingdom, part of the Snake Empire.
Even after the collapse of the Snake Empire, the country still exists as a federation of the Snake kingdoms, along with the Snake kingdoms and the Plum kingdoms, east of the continent.
