Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Black powder is one of China's four major inventions.

Needless to say, it is a bomb.

It can be made by mixing charcoal, sulfur and potassium nitrate.

The cannon can be made of wood, but it will burst.

It seems to be difficult to handle and I don't know if it hits properly.

I don't want to make it because if I don't do it I will die.

For example, throw it like a hatcher or set it on the ground and punch it with a fire arrow to explode.

That's the main thing.

If you combine it with the magic that Tetra has made, you can expect a certain effect.

But I don't expect much of the killing ability.

How destructive is the gunpowder I made of an amateur ...

However, the sound and impact should have a considerable impact.

You can demoralize enemies and use it before the war to surprise King Ferm.

Are you scared?

Perhaps I couldn't do it because I didn't seem scared just by pulling my skeleton.

The material for the black powder was charcoal, sulfur and potassium nitrate, as I said before.

First of all, there is no problem because you can make your own charcoal.

Obtaining sulfur seems to be difficult, but there are many volcanoes around here, so you will find sulfur.

In the worst case, we ask a merchant to import.

If you know a Christian, you know.

There are two ways to obtain potassium nitrate.

Do you mine or make your own?

I do not know where the saltpeter is buried, so I will make it myself this time.

The material is black clay beneath the stable.

However, the soil in our stable is not enough, so we will get it from King Rossais.

"Tetra. You have developed a magic circle of fire. Within a year."

"Okay. But my blood isn't magic enough to draw the charts. I want to buy some of the magic stones-magic stones that are the most useful for magic."

"I see. I don't know which kind of stone is good, so I'm going to order from all kinds of Christian merchants.

My purpose, of course, is to secure the soil.

Anyway, the soil is free and you can get as much as you want.

I want Ron, Rosward and Gram to learn how to lead the army.

I have to ask King Rossais to get me mixed.

Of course I will visit and have them mix if there is a chance.

But before that, you have to negotiate with a Christian merchant to get a horse, a high-performance bow and arrow, and an arrowhead.

In some cases, you may purchase combat slaves.

"I see. Tribute. If I gave it to me, I would have protected it."

"It was an unfortunate emergency."

At that time, even if he asks for help, he will die before he arrives.

in addition……

"Geho, Geho"

"Are you OK? Dad"

King Rosais lays down on a futon and asks Julia to rub her back.

I can't ask a sick person.

"Please, honey."

"... Sorry."

I give honey as usual.

"Well, haven't you come to the report?"

King Rossais laughs grinningly. I'm sorry.

"There are four requirements. First, please lend me the wheat."

"Good, how much?"

I ask Wrosaith for wheat.

"Well ... it's a lot. You didn't say it was enough before. How much did King Ferm take?"

"Well, that's it."

There is another reason for the high demand.

We need to fortify the village for a while. In other words, there is no more time for farming ...

That's all you need.

"Return it three years later. Interest is 10%.

"It's too demanding. There is a way to negotiate with King Demorgar."

When I said so, King Rossais shrugged.

"I know. I'm kidding. Tell me one."

Then ...

"Let's teach the technology of Sueki"

It's the easiest.

I ascend Rosais King and teach the structure of the kiln.

"Second, I want to get the soil from the barn.

"I don't understand the meaning ... well.

King Rossais gave permission with a mysterious look.

"I just want to ask next ... Is there any stone that burns well when lit with a yellow stone? I can dig at a volcano."

Unfortunately you don't know what to say of sulfur in this world.

No sulfur comes out in conversations between children.

"Oh, it's a stone or sulfur that can be picked up near a hot spring. Then you can get it up there. Take it as you like."

"Is that ok?"

"Oh, I always get honey."

That's surprising.

Well sulfur isn't very useful. Is it used to light a fire in the ancient world?

I've heard that during the Edo period they used it instead of matches.

"Fourth, could you show me the military training of King Rossais's army?"

"I see. Measures against King Ferm? I don't care.

"Are my friends OK?"

"Ah"

Alright, we got all the permission.

"Yulia. Guide me."

"Yes!"

________________

"How? The army of our country"

In front of me, a thousand men are training in a row.

At first glance, the department is like heavy infantry.

Similar to the so-called phalanx.

But ...

"Well, is this a skill?"

I don't know because I'm an amateur, but to be honest, it doesn't look very strong.

In the first place, phalanx requires strong cohesion and a strong will.

It does not hold for soldiers who have recruited.

"Ah, you're right. The Greek merchant who came to me said the same thing. It imitated the Greek tactics but it didn't work. According to the story, there was no king in Greece They all seem to be doing politics, so they're all morale, they train because they have time, but they have a father, and our soldiers are two years of recruitment. …… ”

I see. It can't be helped.

It is bad that the Christians are too advanced.

It's like a monkey.

"I'm training the bow over there."

Looking at Julia's finger, about 200 men were training to hit the arrow.

"They're not soldiers recruited, so everyone's morale is high."

Bows are a high technology.

A soldier who has recruited will not be able to do it.

"How is it? Gram. Are you going to win?"

"I can't even close my eyes at that distance. I don't know how many people can shoot the arrows, so I don't know if I can win ... I'm confident."

"And that's the guard. This is also elite."

Where Julia pointed, about fifty men were simulating.

"Is that elaborate? Ron or Rosward seems to have better movement."

I have done kendo.

I learned from the director of the orphanage (self-proclaimed four-dan, true or false).

From my point of view, it seems that there are many useless movements.

Of course, there will be differences in technology.

What I taught Ron and Rosward was Kendo, which has been studied for a long time in Japan.

On the other hand, they are probably waving their swords in their own way.

This is because there is no uniformity in everyone's movement.

So it is natural that Ron and Rosward, who know kendo, are stronger.

But that's not what I care about.

Physical ability.

Obviously they have lower physical abilities than Ron and Rosward.

"Isn't these guys skipping training?"

"Hey, don't say anything you like"

There was a voice from behind.

Looking back, there was a large man with a scar on his face.

Pretty young. And it smells alcoholic.

"Are you the one who seduced our princess?"

"Hey, Bartolo! What are you talking about?"

Julia turned her face red and complained.

"I'm Almus, aside from seduction. Are you sure you're a general in this country?"

"Yes, I keep the army from the king."

It is amazing.

Though it looks like thirties.

Is it so competent?

I'm drunk.

Bartolo was familiar with his arm on his shoulder, probably because I saw her look surprised.

Get away from the smell of alcohol.

"Are you sure King Ferm attacked our country a while ago?"

"Yes, I'm listening. You seemed defeated."

King Ferm leads a hundred soldiers and collides with King Rossais's army.

It is only recently that King Rossais's army has been defeated and has lost much grain.

"So I was taken responsibility for the defeat and the generals were fired (not the metaphor). I'm in this position."

Gladly Bartolo says.

"And my soldiers are weak?"

"Yes, well, at least from my point of view."

Answer honestly.

"Let's make sure, you and my soldier ..."

"I don't need that."

Ron pinched his neck.

"The leader doesn't have to fight. I do. Sadly, I am the weakest of these."

Ron hit the handle of the sword and said,

Perhaps Ron's "this inside" is me, Rosward, and Ron. Gram should be excluded because he is an archer.

"Like! I love high-powered guys. Let's do it now."

________________

""you're kidding……""

The same words spill from me and Bartolo's mouth.

Perhaps Bartolo thought it was a lie on Ron's strength.

And what I thought was a lie was the weakness of the Rossais soldier.

No, I'm getting it somehow, but what's probably a "lie" is Ron's strength.

Ten men who challenged a rematch in front of me were quickly dropped to the ground by Ron.

Bartolo's gesture should have made him quite confident.

In other words, it is reasonable to assume that the Rossais soldiers trained on their confidence.

So they are not weak.

Then the remaining option is that Ron is too strong.

No, the specs in our village are too high.

Because in my village Ron was certainly the third (I count Rosward), but it wasn't that strong.

Actually, I have wondered a little.

Why not get sick?

Everyone in my village was a weak child, and it was not funny to die some people in the first year. But no one is dead.

No, this is enough for my efforts and luck.

The most mysterious thing was the size of the field.

I have expanded and plowed the fields almost every year.

Now they are cultivating a field that is one and a half times as large as the field that was originally there.

The main workforce is children.

And I have time to study and do martial arts.

This is funny.

I thought it was such a thing, but it was funny. strange. Abnormal.

Suddenly looking at the neighbor, Julia was laughing.

She seems to be killing her laughter.

Realizing my gaze, Julia turns away at me.

"I'm sorry. It's interesting that you're a little surprised. You didn't notice."

"What is it?"

"Hey, good. I'll show you the seeds. Hey, Rosward, Gram. You borrow Almus?"

So Julia pulled me.

_______________

"What"

"Actually, I also have blessing.

Julia laughed mischievously.

"Also"?

"The most useful of the blessings I have are" Blessing Blessing "and" Cross-eyed Blessing. "The former is a blessing who can see the opponent's blessing ability. I found you while playing in the forest with a clairvoyance. I was doing something very interesting and I wanted to see you. So I called you with a butterfly. "

Suddenly ...

But the reason Yulia found my village was a long-standing mystery.

This has cleared one mystery.

"So what is my blessing?"

"It's already impatient."

Yulia loosens her cheeks a little.

"That's right. If you name it, I guess it's 'Blessing of the Great King'. The ability depends on the number of people who believe in himself. People who have pledged absolute loyalty will improve their abilities, if not as much as the blessing holders.

......

Loyalty?

I don't mean to be loyal.

"It's surprising. Are you more surprised?"

"I was aware of blessing. I didn't know it would spread to myself."

I didn't even know the conditions.

Well, it's strange that I got used to it.

"So, why now it?"

Julia shouldn't be saying this kind of thing (...).

"Actually, I thought I'd be silent until you noticed it, so I thought I'd be silent. But you're hard to notice ..."

Julia breaks the word once.

"I can't meet you anymore. Today is the end. My dad's death is about to end. So while my father is alive, I have to decide on a marriage partner and get married ... and have to give birth to a child. I can't meet you. "

Yulia was crying.

"So I'm going to tell you now. I don't have the chance to say it anymore. Oh, I thought it would be a bigger response."

Julia laughs with a bright voice and tears.

"Dad told me to refuse the relationship soon."

So Julia came closer to me.

Eyes moistened with tears approach.

"!!"

Yulia has put her lips on my lips.

Yulia's tongue comes into my mouth.

Strong and sucked.

I can't refuse, I'm left as it is.

It's almost forever, and Julia releases her lips from my lips.

A bridge of saliva is built.

"You're going to marry a lot of people from now on. You're strong and cool, and you have the vessel of the king. Surely a lot of girls will call on you. I want you to put it in your harem, but unfortunately it won't work, but just remember this. "

Julia turns away from me and turns her back.

"Your first kiss is me."

Yulia runs away.

……

"Shit!"

I knocked my fist on the tree.
