Easy Lords Fun Territorial Defense - Unnamed Village in Productive Sorcery to the Strongest Castle C

I felt signs of people around the village chief's house, but I don't care about anything and keep talking. It is not a matter of trouble for those in this village to ask.

I have gained momentum in my own words, and I continue to speak without worrying.

"I mean, complaining about the laws of the kingdom and the way the country is doesn't change anything. So, this village, what do you think we should do?

I dared to describe myself as us. One of the inhabitants of the village told me he was one of them.

Well, it didn't sound like much to Rhonda and the others.

"... what do you mean, get another country to protect you?

Rhonda said that, so I shook my head left and right.

"No. The Kingdom of Yelinetta is governed in the same way, so it is treated in the same way. There are three specific measures"

"Do you have three?

The woman next to Rhonda opened her mouth for the first time. Nod at it and put your fingers up.

"The first creates such value that this village cannot be ignored by the kingdom. The second is to make money regularly and hire mercenaries. And the third is to remodel and develop the village itself."

"... none of which seems to be something you can do right away..."

To my words, the woman was immediately dismayed. Well, if you lived in the village for decades, all of them would have been thought of once.

However, even if wood, stone, etc. are picked up in such a despicable place, it cannot be sold because of the transport costs. industries that create products are difficult for villagers who cannot learn.

If you do, you won't be able to make any money, and you won't loose your way to remodel the village.

Is that the place?

But there we are.

"It would have been difficult so far. But here I am, studying to protect my territory properly. From now on, I will do my part to defend and develop this village."

That being said, the three of us don't react well. Then Espada, who had remained silent until then, opened her mouth.

"Excuse me from the side. I was the head deacon of the Marquis Fertio, my name is Espada. Master Van is a talented man who was eight years old and entrusted with the Lordship, but he has been known as a prodigy since childhood. In addition, I and Fertio Knights Vice Commander Dee also served as subordinates. I'm going to be on a big ship, and I want you to take care of it."

Espada tells him that, and Dee also fists his thick chest.

Rhonda and the others, who saw the two of them, were pleasantly surprised to see.

"Hi, Lord Deacon and Vice Chairman? Such a heavy town in such a village...?

"Wouldn't it be a dream"

You guys, Van, the Marquis Four, are here, too. Look at me, man.

I spit poison in my heart, but I was convinced. That wouldn't leave it to the eight-year-old to tell me to leave it to him.

Though it is sad to be treated like a child.

With that in mind, Rhonda's son-like man looked at me with a sunny face.

"Right! Now the Marquis is trying to rescue this village......! Master Van is also a powerful four-element magician…"

"Oh, I'm a magical aptitude for production systems, so don't expect me to be combative"

When I immediately denied it so as not to be misunderstood, I was clearly discouraged. Ugh. You don't have a choice. You can't choose aptitude.

I'm going to rush you, I am.

Put your arms together and open your mouth muffled.

"... In the meantime, we will first roll out the fence so that the village is safe. That wooden fence looks sturdy, too, but if you can fire an arrow, it's over. Later, so is the dwelling."

With that said, everyone's eyes turned this way.

"Will Esparda's earthly magic last?

"My magic can keep me stiff during activation, but if I lose my magic, it becomes just a piece of dirt"

"Hmm. Then let's use it as a wall of dirt. It is sufficient first aid if various stones, large and small, are put together on the surface. Shall we make it good now, as a solid wall? I want to build a moat later. I'd like to slow down the Raiders' legs, though."

"Then we'll take care of it. I'm used to the Warcraft Crusade. Let's also create a hook trap in the pit. After that, prepare to attack from the top of the dirt wall."

"Then let's get a bow and arrow ready. It's hard for an amateur to hit, so throwing stones is good. And then, shall we prepare a big shield so that we don't get hurt?"

Rhonda and I were stunned as we proceeded on our own.

I decided to go outside and say hello to all the villagers, but the Orts also stayed outside with the carriage. Oh, it's getting dark already, so I guess I'm going to stay the night and go home.

That's what I think, and I'll see you later on in greeting the Orts.

When Rhonda and the others spoke, the villagers quickly gathered. It feels like 30% of middle-aged men and women, 40% of young men and women, and about 20% of children.

When the villagers lined up clutterfully, they sat down on the spot according to Rhonda's words.

Make sure that, I open my mouth.

"My name is Van Nay Fertio. I was entrusted by the Marquis Fertio as lord to administer this village. We would like to make every effort to develop the village, thank you."

When I greeted him, he was applauded flatly. Thank you, thank you.

"I'm a kid on this street, but they followed me along. They're first-rate Knights officers and intellectuals. Even when the Bandits come, now let's all work together to repel them! Now is the time to create a strong, rich village!

It made me feel like a politician, but would it have conveyed enthusiasm? See how the villagers react.

Then a young man raised his hand.

"Yes, people there"

When nominated, the man opens his mouth with a difficult face.

"What happens to taxes? Previously, it was 30% of the harvest..."

"How much will that actually be?

"Will I have enough skins, fangs, bones or something of a small warcraft?"

I nod shallow and answer the anxious looking man.

"Then let's make it about five bodies this time. If they tell me there's not enough tax, it's temporary, but I'll pay for it. Now it's more important to work to survive the village."

Answering that, the villagers raised their voices of surprise. Some villages sell children because they can't pay taxes. You must have been surprised at me for answering to cut it in half.

Then, now a middle-aged woman opens her mouth.

"Can't you get the Knights or something to come?

"I ran my horse for two weeks to call. One more week to check priorities and get ready. Two to three weeks for the Knights to get here. You won't make it, and it's only a snuff on the spot. And, most likely, the Knights will not come because they will be put behind them in priority."

There is a voice of anger in my answer.

"You think we're behind?

"Just because you're a civilian..."

I snorted deeply at such dissatisfaction.

"I understand your anger. But the status quo is neither the number of knights nor the budget for this vast territory. It doesn't make sense to wipe out the Knights in small numbers to move them all. If we deal with bandits attacking villages, perhaps the knights will be dispatched from a hundred to two hundred. Preparing food, horses, weapons and tools will also cost you. If you hire mercenaries instead, the cost will be even greater. And the Knights Dispatch petitions come like every week"

I'm sorry if I don't have enough manpower and money. But everyone kept their mouths shut because it was easy to understand.

But exposing all the dissatisfaction only makes it negative. I saw Espada and opened my mouth.

"Esperda. Would you mind putting a dirt wall behind the village fence for a second?

With that said, Espada nodded and then turned her hand to the fence on her left. After a few seconds, the chant is over and the magic activates.

A rugged dirt wall appeared, just like when fighting the bandits.

I look at the villagers who are surprised by it, and I give them the edge of my mouth.

"Your cooperation is essential. But with your help, this village will be reborn much stronger than before."
