Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

"First of all, let's go to King Rosais. Make sure the refugees really tried to escape to the kingdom of Rosais."

"Yup……"

Tetra answered in a small voice.

She seems to be worried about something.

"Let's go with a horse."

I attach saddles and stirrups to horses.

By the way, these saddles and stirrups were made by myself through trial and error.

It was quite surprising that rear did not know the saddle and stirrup.

Because this technology is useful, I will keep it secret. I can't laugh if my enemy gets stronger.

"Hey."

"Yup"

I reach out and put the tetra on the horse.

Two-seater.

This horse is not great for compliments, but it is capable enough to walk with two people.

"Hey, Almus"

After a while, Tetra, who had been silent until now, called out.

"What happened?"

"Is it surprising to know King Ferm?"

"A little bit"

Tetra wrapped his arm around my waist and pressed her body as if to hold her.

You can see that the arm has strength.

"He's a scary person. He's greedy. He doesn't choose the means for his purpose. But he has the power to scare people and naturally follows him."

"I see. In other words, could we steal food if we knew our presence?"

In fact, the refugees who are coming may be the custodians. I'm heading to the kingdom of Rosais to confirm that.

"How powerful is the kingdom of Ferm?"

"The population is around 30,000, so the military is usually 500, the wartime is 1,000, and in an emergency you can mobilize 2,000."

"Do you usually mobilize 500?"

"He just became a king by killing a raid who was in the kingdom of Rosais, Radous-Ass, so his status was unstable."

"They are constantly feeding their soldiers to maintain their volatile status, which is putting a heavy tax on them and making them more volatile."

"To say that"

Anyway, five hundred ...

Our population is one hundred. Among them are 62 men.

Only about forty people will be able to fight some of them.

Twelve times?

No, it's a thousand in wartime, so it's twenty-five times.

Either way, there will be no luck.

The fight speaks of numbers.

"Can you win?"

"I can't do it right now"

"If you prepare?"

"Fifty-five minutes"

He purchases the appropriate weapons and requests reinforcements by subordinated to King Rosais while developing guerrilla warfare.

You may purchase combat slaves from a Christian merchant.

After that, if you cut down from the inside in cooperation with a person who has a rebellion against King Ferm's rule ... I guess there will be no victory.

"so……"

Tetra falls down to think.

"What if?"

Tetra whispers in a small voice.

"Radow As-What if the former royal daughter survived? Will the winning rate increase?"

"Yes, I would be glad if I could reveal my identity and cooperate. In the view of King Rossais, she is a daughter of his ministry. There will be people who are running. ''

"so"

Tetra silences again.

Some time had passed, and Tetra opened his mouth as he saw the land of King Rosais.

"Can you protect me?"

"It's obvious. I'm a family."

"... then cooperate"

Tetra hugged me strongly.

_______________

"I see. In other words, is it true that you refused?"

"Yes, that's right. I haven't had enough food these days. I couldn't afford to feed them. I'll see more if I admit thirty.

that's strange. I heard that King Rosais had a population of about 170,000.

I don't think there's a hundred or two hundred people ...

Generally our village was a good harvest. I mean ...

"I'm plotting."

"I don't know what it is."

That's white.

"The curse from another country caused the failure of King Ferm's village. In fact, my village did not fail, because he was not cursed by fear of the griffon. There's a good sorcerer, no curse will make me bad, in fact, the villages along the way didn't seem hungry, and I heard from Julia that there was a good harvest, so the kingdom of Rosais would accept There's plenty of room. Isn't it safe to say 300 people instead of 30? "

"Yes, but it's still a bad loan.

"It's unnatural"

I block King Rossais's words.

"It's good that the population is growing, and the refugees are residents of the enemy kingdom of Ferm, and should be called for, so that the people of King Ferm will rush into King Rossais. In the end, food will be reduced, but it will eventually be recouped by taxes, and it would be nice to see King Ferm's nation's strength diminished. "

The story is different if King Rossais's country is short of food. But the kingdom of Rosais has a lot of food. So there should be no problem.

Language and culture are different. I don't know why they refused, but they were the same Adernians and until decades they were in the same country. There is no problem to welcome. No, it's a reason to take the initiative because it helps the fellow countrymen.

There are still many undeveloped lands.

And they told me they could be slaves. Naturally, he should have said the same to King Rossais. Can I get a slave for free? There are no human rights groups in the world in May. They can be overworked and sold off.

If you accept it, you can make a beautiful story that "Rosaith is a benevolent master".

Turning back is a trick.

Another discomfort is another.

"It's also unnatural that they came to my village. It's not just the kingdoms of Rosais and King Ferm on the Adernia. If you don't want to accept it, just push it to another country. Instead of having a lookout soldier, you could use a national traffic permit. "

The land of King Rossais was a good harvest.

In other words, the surrounding countries must have been well harvested. It is unlikely that the climate will change completely in the immediate vicinity.

Neighboring countries can afford enough refugees.

But they came to the forest. Find our village in a large forest.

That's hard. It's hard to think by chance.

"Well, there's a paradise over there anyway, right?"

"Hmm ... it's true. 90% is correct, but there is still something missing."

"Why did you move the refugees to my village? That's easy."

I stare at the grinning King Rossais.

"You read with a high probability that I will accept refugees. Well, I'm simple. No matter what I say. But kindness doesn't hurt my stomach. So I need to buy wheat from somewhere. There's something there ... "

"Do not become our country"

There is an option to buy from the Christians, but it is far away. It is most realistic to buy from a nearby place.

"Was you going to lend me wheat? Because lending to me is more likely to return than lending to refugees."

"Oh, yes, 95% correct."

Grinning.

It's a frustrating face when I look at it.

"And were you going to ask for sueki, honey, and papermaking methods in terms of lending?"

King Rossais wants this technology enough to get his hand out of his throat.

However, it cannot be forcefully heard.

I could run to King Demorgar. And King Rossais is ill and cannot go out. If you take a bad military action, you will be backed by a royal family seeking the status of king.

Above all, I am hated by Julia, who is close to me.

It would be painful to be hated by only daughters.

So I tried to hear it with my hands.

I would say so.

When I said so far, King Rossais clapped her hand.

Applause ... is that correct? I'm not happy.

"99% correct! Excellent. If you were my son, I would be a successor without hesitation. But 1% is not enough.

......

can not understand.

Seeing my face, King Rossais smiles evil.

"I'm the one who cursed the kingdom of Ferm this time. How about? Hahahahaha Geho, Geho, Geho"

Don't overdo it. I'm sick.

When I look with white eyes, King Rossais steps back with a face that eats nothing.

"Well, how much do you want?"

"No, I'm in time."

When I answered so, King Rossais twitched his face.

Two-field farming is the mainstream in Adernia Peninsula.

And in my village, wheel-cutting agriculture. The productivity is different.

And they cultivate deeply with cows and horses.

It seems that King Rossais had predicted that he would run out of food ... but in the case of the two-field system.

Shame for you! It's a miscalculation from the beginning! ! idiot! !

"Is it now? I will run out of it soon."

King Rossais said so with a blank face.

What are you talking about?

So you're saying it's okay.

Seeing mysterious look, King Rossais says.

"You haven't overlooked the important thing. Well, good. I'll come to cry within three days. Please lend me wheat."

What a face he looks like won!

Absolutely crying.

whatever.

"By the way, do you want one? If you were the ruler before King Ferm ... Was Lagou? What if his child were alive?"

"It's ... protected because Lagou was our important ally. You can tell if you're really a child by looking at the sacred script and crest on your back."

"So, if the child wants to regain his territory and rent a soldier?"

"It depends, but ... I'll lend you if I have a chance .... Surely, you're Lagou's child?"

"No way. It's not me."

If so, it's easy.

"... Is one good?"

"What is it?"

"Who is that woman?"

Before I answer, Tetra hugs me and declares.

"I am Armus' wife"

I don't remember getting married ...

Well, either.

That is more convenient.

"I feel like that"

"Really……"

King Rossais looks seriously at Tetra's face.

I look at Tetra's face.

Tetra nodded greatly.

"She is the daughter of Lagou ass. Tetra ass."

"I see. It's a face I've seen somewhere. It looks exactly like it."

"Are you sure?"

In response to Tetra's question, King Rossais shook his head.

"I don't need that. You can see it in your face. And you're not such a liar ball. And it doesn't matter if it's genuine or not.

In other words, if the humans around you recognize him as Lagou As's daughter, it can be real or just like it.

It's like this person

"But don't you think too hard. If you could let King Ferm blow a bubble, we'll attack King Ferm and make you a royal family."

"Haha, thank you. Well, if I could blow a blow to King Ferm, it would be when he attacked."

Not yet decided.

I don't want power separately. I just want to use what is available.

Nothing happens if King Ferm is an unexpectedly peaceful guy.

"Then I'll see the kingdom of Ferm soon."

"Oh, watch out."

We have separated from King Rossais.

____________

"Hey, Almus"

"What"

"I wish I became your wife? Isn't it impossible?"

Tetra was anxious.

"What are you doing now? I'm not overdoing you. You're cute. I'm rather glad. I'm just talking about my habit that's been appealing so far."

In fact, I like Tetra a lot.

I don't know about love, but ... well, Tetra is fine.

I think so.

"What about Yulia?"

"... I'm not in the first place."

She is the only daughter of King Rossais.

The body that must eventually invite a powerful tribe to his son-in-law.

I have no connection with me.

I'm not too dull, so I know Julia has a strong favor with me.

I like Yulia as much as Tetra. The appearance is also a favorite type. … Well, it's weird to think about this after accepting Tetra.

Well do you want to be a couple? I want to be realized if asked.

But there are differences.

"How do you enter the kingdom of Ferm?"

"Let's go with the settings of a merchant from the south. If you happen to pass by, it's just an empty dwelling and I'm wondering why I asked why ..."

Our dress is good now.

It's the return of the audience of King Rossais.

A rich merchant could pass.

"By the way, are there any people you know who could cooperate?"

"Hmm, my relatives are dead except me ... maybe I'm not there, and then I was ten years old."

"I see. Seven years have passed."

It seemed long and short.

Looking back, it feels like a long time ago.

"So today, let's just search and end it."

First of all, we have to think about the thirty people.

________________

"Ah ... I'm sorry. This village doesn't seem to have any people ... what happened? There are a lot of soldiers, plagues?"

I listened with a frightened expression.

"No, the inhabitants fled at night. Now I'm in the process of forming a search squad to bring them back. It's quite annoying. Well I'm heading the army this time is King Ferm. "

"Escape at night? Why?"

"Sorry you ..."

The soldier looks around and listens to me.

"It's a heavy tax. I can't pay the tax. I really want to stop being a soldier. If I don't work, my relatives will be taxed and I can't send them off."

That's hard.

There seem to be many complaints.

"Where did you come to such a place?"

"We're doing business. We've passed this country with the intention of heading north, but seeing the soldiers gathering in this village.

Tell a lie appropriately.

"Hey, I'm jealous of having a horse. Is your bride behind you?"

Tetra nodds at the soldier's question, making her face red.

"This time I went to find out what can be sold. Is there anything that could be sold in this area?

"That kind of thing. Well, you can sell food. Everyone is hungry. There is only one person who can pay for it."

Soldiers laugh at themselves.

For the time being, we'll laugh.

Yeah, this country.

Anyway, can you be so light?

"By the way, how do you get it back? If I'm a resident, I'll escape to the kingdom of Rossais. I think I've arrived."

"No, he doesn't seem to be in the land of King Rossais. King Rossais doesn't even need waste. We don't even need it. There was a rumor that there was an ideal home protected by Griffon-sama, and I believed it and went there.

Unexpectedly we are inhabitants of Utopia.

Was it bad that the wings were too good? Or was it bad to overuse Griffon's authority casually?

Or is it enough for a hungry man to be an ideal home?

"Isn't it hard to find it in the forest?"

"That's not true. There are so few sorcerers in our country. If you use a dog, it's a snap ... oh, I'm glad if you can turn that sorcerer into building a barrier "

The barrier is always depleted of magic.

King Ferm, who is always ready for war, preserves the magician's magic.

By the way, the reason that Julia opens a barrier to our field is that he has too much magic.

If the power of a normal sorcerer is full, he seems to have five baths.

A rare genius girl magician and princess.

Heaven seems to have given two things to man.

By the way, the person behind me is the oldest magician in the world (self-proclaimed) and a daughter of a former royal family.

There are too many guys around me with two things.

"I heard that Griffon was there ... Is it okay?"

"That's what I am ... I'm worried, but it's okay if about 200 people are King Ferm ... I'm more afraid of King Ferm than Griffon who doesn't know if he's there."

Apparently Griffon's authority seems to be of little use.

Or is Ferm just fearless?

Or maybe you're familiar with griffons.

"Almus, it's hard. They'll come to our village."

"Two hundred? That's troublesome."

I scratch my head.

For the time being, it turns out that the thirty are infinitely white.

Will you return in a hurry?

"So we're around here. Be careful."

"Oh! Let's get along well!"

I hurried back to the village.
