Kuro no Senki

The story goes back before Chrono and Leonhardt shook hands.

Chrono put up parchment that arrived from the imperial capital and tried to watermark it to the sun.

I tried to vertical, lay down, flip the parchment, and sear it with fire...... I didn't dip it in the water, but after trying to decipher the text in every way,

"Again, it's a battle. Ooh!

Chrono admitted that there was no hidden message on parchment and exclaimed in the office.

In order to improve the status of the subpeople, we decided to be prepared to realize the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, but the scary ones are still scary.

"... Uggu"

Chrono moaned with his head in his arms.

"No, think positively. This time it's not a battle between the military. Rio and Lord Leonhardt... oh, I can't think positively. Ugh, I hate religion."

Chrono can't understand one situation right now where the 'Temple' is about to devour the nation.

Most importantly, even if Chrono is not convinced, the 'Temple' of the Kingdom of Holy Argo has great power and comparable authority to the King.

"Well, let's be convinced. That's what it is."

But how am I supposed to start a civil war? and Chrono thought about the operation.

It breaks into the Kingdom of Holy Argo and causes a civil war while pretending to cooperate with the King.

Leonhardt seems to be trying to seal East-West streets to weaken the 'Temple' and secure new trading routes to increase the King's power, but will that be the only civil war?

The king will try to avoid a civil war, even if it is not, so assisting the king could be the end of it.

If you do poorly, you will be crusaded as a bandit, and if you are distracted from this intent, you will be expelled before the operation succeeds.

"Or is it impossible to work at the point where you reveal your identity? It's obvious if you say so, but is there another intention?

Chrono stopped thinking after a while.

There are too few materials to speculate on Prime Minister Alcor's intentions.

But isn't it just a bad thing?

This operation is highly liberal.

It is also possible to take advantage of this situation.

If done well, Chrono hoisted the corner of his mouth.

That was when Tilia came into the office.

"What are you up to!

"If you come in, it sounds terrible."

Chrono poked his cheek wand and said back to Tilia.

"That being said, until just now you looked horny"

"Erotic face?

"That's right. You do terrible things to me at night games, not long ago... my face when I imagine how I would react."

When Chrono asked, Tilia answered oddly specifically.

"So, what's going on?

Tilia leaned over to her desk as she walked over to Chrono.

Apparently, Tilia heard Chrono scream and rushed me.

"Fight again."

"Fight...... you mean that"

As Chrono tilted his gaze, Tilia was joining hands and rubbing her thick crotch together in embarrassment.

Tilia's face looks cheerful and somewhere happy.

"So you're saying you want to hold me for the last time, huh?

"It's not even the last one! I will definitely come back alive!

When Chrono protested, Tilia looked at Chrono with pitiful eyes.

"Isn't that a guy named Death Flag who explained it to me before?

"No, I'm not! And because the death flag is fiction! So-called, storytelling promises! You mess with real life and fiction, no!

Chrono desperately denied Tilia's theory of death flags.

"It's okay. I survived the first battle, the retreat, the death trials."

"You're a dick that there's no fourth time. Raise it up, raise and drop another one. Bad quality."

Hino, no, no! And Krono screamed.

"Calm down, Chrono. You're the biggest mess I've ever made while I'm telling you not to mess around."

Tilia gently slapped Chrono on both shoulders.

"Is it that dangerous?

"It's not dangerous. There's no fighting."

Chrono offered Tilia parchment.

Tilia received parchment and nodded Hmm.

"Tilia, do you know what Chancellor Alcor's aim is?

"We'll see."

"Huh? Ah, but"

Chrono put his hips to the unexpected words of Tilia, but immediately rethought and sat in the chair.

"But what?

"Tilia was deprived of her right to inherit the throne without realizing the sincerity of Chancellor Alcor, and now she has one degree of credibility."

"Gucci, gucci, gucci, gucci!

"It's a shame to tell the story of the past about being deprived of the right to inherit the throne."

Krono thinks while making irrevocable mistakes.

On the other hand, I was also impressed that one of the cases of the right to inherit the throne had a division within Tilia.

"Well, no. Tilia, what do you think Chancellor Alcor is thinking?

"You're buying time to stabilize the Empire."

Tilia responded instantly.

"Buy time?

"It's been about a year and a half since I was deprived of my right to inherit the throne. That's all it's been, but my brother-in-law Alfort hasn't become an emperor. Maybe there are a lot of problems that Chancellor Alcor wants to solve."

"Well, I don't know if I want time. You're wondering how effective this operation is. If I were Prime Minister Alcor's position, I wouldn't put people and money into an operation that I don't even know might work."

When Chrono said, Tilia put her arms together as she thought.

"If Chrono is in the position of Chancellor Alcor, wouldn't he do the same?

"I wouldn't do that."

Chrono didn't think of it and said it back.

"Isn't it lazy not to try an operation that might work, even though you have enough money and talent?

"Oh, I see"

Chrono almost pounded his tongue.

"That's the thing. I'm sure Chancellor Alcor has other hands on him."

I see. I see.

Krono smiled, saying it was a delicious story, depending on what he tried to do.

At the next moment, Tilia shuddered as if her fear had run.

"Chrono, stop laughing that way"

"I'm not bothering Tilia."

"Annoying! When you laugh like that, your back's freaking out."

Yes, yes, and Chrono sat back in the chair.

After noon, Chrono accompanied Tilia to the conference room at the Marquis Mansion.

As Chrono stepped into the conference room, his men… The nine deputies, Leila, Aridead, Deneb, Fay, Tyga, Shilo, Hylo and Gordi, stood up and saluted Chrono.

"Should I get up, too?

……

Rio doesn't make him feel any signs of standing on his back with words, and Sue is sleeping on her desk.

"Well, you two are not my men, so stay put."

The line of desks and chairs in the conference room is in school form.

Chrono sits in a seat that hits the teaching table.

Tilia is next to Chrono.

Phew, and Tilia pointed her provocative gaze at Leila and Rio.

"Seat!"

My men followed Krono's orders and took their seats.

"… Yes, trouble has broken out again."

"Ugh! Also, war?

"It's like I want you to spare me the war anymore!

Aridead and Deneb stuck to their desks.

"Take a look at your materials first"

"Everybody, I'll Ease Through Your Eyes" (Bubba)

With that said, the deputy took a bunch of materials.

The dossier describes two operations.

It's an operation sent by Teito and one that Chrono thought about with Tilia.

The operation conceived by Chrono and Tilia is close to the proposed correction to the original operation.

"Master Krono, what if we act on Master Krono's operation?

"I thought about it, too."

"Excuse me, Empress Tilia"

"Looks like I'm gonna have to settle with you for once."

Layla apologized pale, but that didn't seem funny to Tilia.

"Admiral, it's easy to understand that we have a new trading route, but why use the Sinner Trade Union?" '(Bubba, Bubba?

"Boo, it's impossible to give up the seeds of money to someone else."

"Boo, boo, it's like making more money on a deal would improve your treatment."

Aridead and Deneb took a ride to the deputy and expressed their dissatisfaction.

"I can't care about the funds, but unfortunately I don't have a subordinate familiar with the business. Besides, my purpose is to make a deal, not to monopolize profits."

It wouldn't be something he could monopolize, and Chrono clapped his shoulders.

"The 'Sinner Trade Union' will have you as a call-water. If the 'Sinner Trade Union' makes a profit, other merchants will come for a ride. And the money that the merchants make from the deal goes around and rolls into my pocket."

Chrono made the ring with his thumb and index finger.

It is a gesture representing money.

"Mmm, Master Chrono, this is an operation to hold down the roots of your specialty."

"They remind me of the difference between those who can and those who can't."

"It's like someone who can create a structure like this makes money"

The three Faye, Aridead and Deneb seem to be negative about capitalism.

"Well, it's in everyone's interest. The Kingdom of Holy Argo is a landlocked country, so you should be able to sell salt and salt fish. More mercenary guild jobs."

"He'll make everyone in Pioneering Village happy."

"It's finally Mr. Silva's 3D salt field turn. However, if we were to increase the number of 3D salt fields, Mr. Silva would overwork."

"... ask Kane to supervise so Silva doesn't work too hard"

If I found out I could make money from salt, I guess the people in Count Cado's territory would want me to build a 3D salt field - and Chrono had a feeling Fey's worries would become a reality.

"Master Chrono, one of the operations is called 'Cooking Out,' but are they taking Master Shaela?

"" Sheila?

Leila said, Aridead and Deneb tilted their necks wonderfully.

"You mean the general, the general's. No, I was going to ask Mr. Scion this time."

"To Master Theon?

Leila leaned her neck strangely.

Even though it seems strange, Leila's expression changes and neck inclination are extremely slight.

"Yes, I thought Mr. Scion would take it more commonly than the general."

"Is it a general acceptance?

Layla seemed puzzled, but didn't speak any more.

"Admiral, what is this dimension and billa distribution? '(Bubba?

"I thought I'd have fun with the people of the Holy Argo Kingdom."

The deputy had put his arms around him and tilted his neck to say he didn't know why.

"What about the real place?

"No, as I explained"

Rio smiled prankily, apparently realizing Chrono's sincerity.

"Chrono, what's your real aim?

"Hey, I thought I'd take my job seriously"

Chrono explained what he would cook out, dimension, and billa distribute for in mind.

Most importantly, the details of the magazine were not explained.

Three nodded with a strange face: the deputy, Leila and Rio, and seven as Pocan: Aridead, Deneb, Faye, Tyga, Shiro, Hyiro and Goldie.

Chrono wanted Faye to know.

"Admiral, it's easy to think it's new if you're new." (Bukuya ~)

"... Dear Chrono"

"Hahaha, isn't Chrono like the devil?

Tilia reacted in the same way as her deputy and Leila.

"I thought it was a good idea?

"It's what scares you to do with that one word."

Tilia said in a frightened tone.

"So that explains the operation. This will be followed by the announcement of the members participating in this operation!

"Get off! Get off!

"God!"

Aridead and Deneb were praying seriously.

"Eh, Rio is confirmed"

"I've been sloppy for six months. I'll work properly."

Rio said with great admiration on his shoulder.

"Next, Faye"

"We'll do our best this time!

Faye stands up, gutspaws.

The blockade of East-West streets is left to Leonhardt's men, and Krono and the others are in charge of a few elite maneuvers.

Fey's presence is indispensable if he is a few elites.

I also need it in service.

"Mr. Minot next."

"Admiral, it's easy for me to think you're useless."

"Rather, Mr. Minot needs to be here. Nice to meet you too, Shilo and Hyiro!

"Me, good luck! '(ugh!

"Me too, me too! '(ugh, ugh!

Shilo and Hyiro stood up and shook their tails.

Chrono felt just a little guilty about the two motivated people.

"Then, Aridead, Deneb...... Lead your own squad and say hello to the blockade of East-West streets!

"Duh, no, no, no, no! Ma'am, for once!

"Master Chrono's trust is heavy! It's too heavy!

Aridead and Deneb screamed.

"Uh-huh, a knight dispatched from Imperial Capital is in charge of sealing off East and West streets."

"I know and!

"It's like I read the material!

Aridead and Deneb slapped their desks to protest.

"It's just people who don't have real experience."

"Uggs, there's no amulet or anything."

"Besides, nobility... I don't think the sleigh fits"

Aridead and Deneb got bored on their desks.

"Dear Chrono, if we pull through this class of hundred captains, will there be a problem with policing the territory?

"I'll have Tyga and Nauru in charge of city security. Then, the holes of Alidead and Deneb..."

The door to the conference room opened when Chrono tried to say the name of the person.

It was Cecily who opened the door.

"What can I do for you? I'm busy at work."

"Eh, I'll have Cecily fill the holes in Aridead and Deneb, even if they're not. Cecily, while Aridead and Deneb are away, temporarily lead the cavalry."

"You've finally realized my worth"

Chrono said, Cecily smiled like she had won.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh I think I hear a high laugh.

"Isn't she quitting the army?

"I've dealt with that there"

Chrono answered Leila with a strange look on her face.

For once, anyone who puts himself in military status can be invited if necessary.

I have sent a letter to Count Pisce, so there will be no problem.

"So what about the Lords proxy?

"Kane has an office job, so Tilia will act as Lords' Agent"

"Um, I'll take care of it"

Tilia nodded to Eagle Deep Fried.

"Bu, the Empress Tilia is acting as a lord or something"

"Bu, bu, I'd like to see a shortage of talent."

……

"Aridead, Deneb, shut up! Half an elf, if you have a complaint, say it!

Tilia said something contradictory.

Well, not at all contradictory in mood.

"Finally, Sue asks for guidance on the coma forest"

"... minutes cutter"

Sue woke up murky.

"Were you listening properly?

"Me, my wife. Obeyu, naturally '

"If they say no, I'll be in trouble. It's fine."

Sue is splitting into comatose woods and harvesting herbs.

We need the help of those familiar with the woods.

"Then let us take over ourselves by the time Lord Leonhardt arrives... Dismissed!

The men stood up in unison and saluted Chrono.

In the evening, the outdoor area was being surrounded by silence.

Many store owners are starting to get ready for the store.

Stores that are trying to stick a little more and increase sales can also be seen as flirty, but that's a minority.

The outhouse will be busy tomorrow.

Chrono felt a little lonely as he looked sideways at the outdoor shop.

The festival ends.

Such loneliness.

The delicious smell of drifting from nowhere gives way to loneliness.

Outdoor food is delicious, but home cooking is exceptional.

Chrono stopped in front of the dewstore.

"The Painted Black Temple/Marquis Erakis Territorial Outpost" looked strangely coaled.

It's only been a few days since the clergyman set up the shop.

The clergyman was stuck at his desk to indicate the status quo where the idle birds were ringing.

"... Cleric"

"Oh, Lord."

When Chrono spoke, the cleric woke up his body.

"Are you making money?

"Do I look like I'm making money?

Krono was questioned by the cleric, who shook his neck to the side.

"Hmm, I can't give Faye his money back if he stays like this."

Krono was surprised that the cleric was trying to return the money.

No, I'm surprised you're trying to give me my money back for this job.

"Shouldn't you be working seriously?

"You're gonna work seriously, seriously!

Chrono roared.

I don't have to wonder if I can be fully committed to the work of turning my back on the word productivity.

"What was the cleric doing in the Kingdom of the Holy Argo?

"I'm a high priest, so I don't have anything to do. He drank it for me every day."

"No, work it!

Chrono went into it with all his might.

"What is the role of the clergyman's... 'Goddess to make it pitch-black and conduct chaos'?

"Mm-hmm. I think it's an approval for existence."

The cleric said to groan.

"Approval of existence?

"The work of the Goddess of Darkness and Chaos is an approval of existence. Maybe we could call it loving the bumblebee."

The clergyman poked his cheek wand and smiled.

That was like a Mercy Mother...... she smiled so it made me think I could stay here.

"I think love is an affirmation of existence. But human love is incomplete. Because I'm a parent and child, because I'm a lover, because I'm a friend... people can only find love in relationships. But God's love is infinite."

Chrono clenched his fist.

Six-pillar God is not the kind of God that man imagines.

What does the system say it can love?

"I get it. It is best to know that I am not a god. But don't you think it's necessary? Something affirms my existence..."

"Right. God needs it."

Chrono had affirmed nature and the word of the cleric.

I'm sure that won't change even in the world where Chrono was.

"... Cleric, I have a good job for you?

"Well, beauty is not a sin."

'Cause it's not that way.

Chrono slammed into the clergyman scratching up his hair.

"So what do you want me to do with you?

"I'm going to the Holy Argo Kingdom, so I need directions and... to persuade the Submen to come to the Marquis of Elakis"

"Hmm, you're not going to embrace the subpeople and develop the territory. I don't mind if I do, but how many can you accept?

Mr. Mino's pioneering village is paying two gold coins per capita, so Chrono calculates.

"... as a pioneering citizen, well, a thousand or so"

"Thousands!

The clergyman opened his eyes to his surprise.

If I can't do it, I'll triple it...... I can accept three thousand people, but I won't be able to break my budget for anything else.

A dilemma.

I have a desire to do something about the subpeople of the Holy Argo Kingdom, but Chrono can't move just because of his feelings.

"When are we going to start?

"What's more... why don't we do it after dinner?

"Are there other errands?

"I have some errands at the infirmary. Actually, there's something I'd like you to do for Mr. Theon."

Hmm? And the cleric leaned her neck wonderfully.

"Please?"

"Thought I'd do a cookout in the Holy Argo Kingdom."

Hmm? Hmm? and the cleric is acting strange.

Apparently, the cleric cannot understand what it means for Zion to perform cookouts in the Kingdom of the Holy Argo.

"Well, that's what I'm talking about."

"I'm going home one foot away."

Chrono dropped off a mumbling cleric wondering what was going on for dinner today.

The gift of Zion's devotion, or the Sanctuary, was noisier than it was a few days ago.

"Marquis Elakis"

"Hey, Dino."

"I chose them to be soldiers."

When Dino glanced at him, ten boys, a girl, lined up in the aisle.

It's a formation of three boys and seven girls.

Chrono did not ask about the criteria for his candidacy.

At the point where the girl is seven...... I can tell she's a candidate for mistress or picked it out for lip service.

"... What do boys care about a lot of cute systems are they alle?

"What are you talking about?

You think I'm a boy's mouth? Chrono swallowed the penetration that

Chrono looked over at the boy and girl...... stared at one girl.

I don't know what to say, she's a girl who doesn't seem well.

"What about that kid?

"... my daughter who has fled another settlement"

Oh, and Chrono nodded.

Perhaps the girl had a settlement raided and only one survived.

I should have remembered about the trick.

Now this is the best I can do, and Chrono walked over to the elf girl.

The elf girl looked up blurry and chrono.

When Chrono tried to stroke his head, the elf girl tried to avoid it.

Chrono grabbed the girl's head and shook it back and forth, then let go of her hand after a while.

The elf girl opens her mouth like an asshole and looks up at Chrono.

"My name is Chrono, what about you?

"... sha, ula"

"That's a nice name."

If you praise him, it shouldn't be a problem, and Chrono smiled, thrilled.

Elf girl...... Shaura pointed her lips at the top and bottom, whether she was lit or obstinate.

"I'm waiting for you to come home."

Shaura nodded cocoonly.

"What about Mr. Theon?

Master Theon is upstairs.

Upstairs means he's at work, or Chrono tapped Dino's shoulder lightly and climbed the stairs.

Theon's room... rightly a room to work as Dean of the Poverty Salvation Home... is a rampage upstairs.

When Chrono knocked on the door, there was an immediate reaction.

"... Dear Chrono"

Theon opened the door and opened his eyes as if surprised.

"Go ahead, go inside. You can fry incense tea right away."

Chrono lowered his hips on the couch and stared behind Zion.

Scion put two cups on the table and lowered his hips shallow on the couch.

"Dear Chrono, on what business today?

"Actually, I'm going to the Holy Argo Kingdom... and I want Mr. Theon to cook it out there ~,"

Theon tilted his neck wonderfully.

"Of course, I'll multiply the donation, and I'll have the cost of cooking it out this way"

"Danger, what is it?

"... quite"

Chrono uttered an honest prediction.

If the 'Temple' of the Kingdom of Holy Argo realizes Chrono's intentions, it will embark on the elimination of the Chronos.

"I know you're saying something unsolicited. If Mr. Zion says no, he won't cut the donations or the budget of the Sanitary Home."

That's a cowardly rhetoric, Krono thought.

If Chrono talks about gold, it becomes a bargaining material.

"If you'll cooperate, I'll protect you within my reach."

"When Master Chrono didn't have the power?

"I guess I'm gonna die."

Huh, Chrono exhaled.

……

Theon leaned down and, occasionally, raised his face to explore Chrono's reaction.

A painful silence lasted for a while,

"Okay. I will cooperate with Master Krono."

Theon said in a squeezing voice.

"... so I'd like you to tell Mr. Elaine what's going on"

"Well, that's good."

Kane's voice is a transparent sphere… sounds from the terminal of an ultra-long distance communication magic item.

Chrono leaned against the back of the chair.

Don't make a big deal out of it. Hey, you okay if I don't come back?

"To tell you the truth, I'd like you to come back, but without Kane, there's a deputy."

If the deal with the Holy Argo Kingdom is on track, there will be more mercenary guild turns.

With more mercenary guild turns, Kane's work will also increase.

"Can you come back before then?

"Ah, no evil."

Kane said groaning.

Since the presence of the contract has been added to the work, the workload of the Agency has increased considerably.

If you try to be a merchant, the presence of the contract is a thankful system.

Anyway, there's still evidence that we made a deal with each other on a small fee.

The deputies will be even busier because of the increasing presence of building rental contracts, he said.

'As always, you're short on manpower. It's enough to pull even Princess Tilia out, so don't be too understaffed.'

"Tilia wants to be on par with me."

"Huh? What, what?

"When I'm gone, you have to work for me instead."

Yeah, but Chrono felt a glimmer of anxiety that he might be overenjoying his freedom and not being able to.

"Take over is solid"

"… Copy"

Chrono had a meeting with Kane to terminate the communication.

June of the Empire Calendar four hundred and thirty-two...... Krono received a report from his men, waiting outside the mansion for a line of Leonhardt.

I did all I could in the past month.

Particularly difficult among them was the trade route through the coma forest… selecting routes and making rest stops.

You wouldn't have accomplished these two in a short period of time without Sue, a mountain expert, and a cleric who feels like he's quitting humans.

As Chrono was remembering a month of hard work, he saw Leonhardt on a horse near the gate of the Marquis Mansion.

Leonhardt went through the gate, followed by the men on horseback.

All Leonhardt's men are supposed to be knights with jazz, but they don't dress like knights.

Leonhardt is also an old travel outfit.

Have you been a little too temperamental? And Chrono picks the collar of his military uniform.

I was going to weave the cape I gave away from my father, but it didn't seem to be the right thing to do.

Leonhardt descended from his horse and approached Chrono.

Clothes are old, but the air that Leonhardt wraps around remains the same.

The air around Leonhardt seems to be shining light.

Chrono exhaled gently and flushed a shock (...) shot (...).

Long time no see, Lord Chrono.

"Right."

Chrono shook back the hand Leonhardt offered.
