Episode 10: The Bible or the Sword.

"The failure of Hilderick II and his delightful companions is that you saw only my Alexandria decree and mistakenly thought I was a conciliatory monarch. The same political ideology as myself, I got the wrong idea... and I believed it. That's a typical example of how only the convenient part can be seen by humans. If you look not only at the Alexandria Decree, but also at the Alexandria Council... you know who I am."

"Even though it is worse for you to be fooled, Your Majesty thinks a lot about it too...... now for ten years the Kingdom of Cerda can't attack our country can't it?

Carolina dons to Elquille's measures.

As always, he is a man who cannot do what he does.

"Um, Your Majesty."

"What's up? Nia."

"... after all, isn't it unnatural? If you believe too much in anything at all... how did you make them believe? Normally, don't you think I'd take as much of a formal word for it?

Nia asks Erkühl.

Near questions in particular.

It is only natural to be cautious when we come up with a serious case that shapes our fate and that of our country, such as a coup d 'état.

Too little attention to anything at all.

"That's easy. I sent military funds through Antonio."

"Antonio... you're the Minister of Commerce, Industry and Trade, right?

"Yes, yes. Think about it. Antonio is a human race (human), a foreigner... a former merchant. And one of Hilderick II's neighbors is a human race, a merchant."

"No way..."

Yes, that's not true.

Oh, my God, Joamel and Antonio are familiar.

"People seem to be relieved that people who have something in common are their opponents. Antonio's people (human beings) are discriminated against against by Joamel, so I think he trusted me very much."

When Elquille said so, Carolina and Nia pulled their faces apart.

"His Majesty is terrible in His Majesty too... but Minister Antonio is probably also..."

"You look like a good guy with a smile on your face..."

Then Elquille answers with a smiling (...) face.

"Well, smile. Don't believe the guy who laughs from time to time. Think calmly. That's all you've got in that year, isn't it? I bet Shylock is repeating his heinous outrage enough to be cute."

Anyway, I can dis Shylock.

He's pathetic, too, not to think he'll be treated badly and outrageously just because he looks bad and lends high interest.

Most importantly, neither of us would want Erkühl to tell us anything.

"By the way, Your Majesty. What do you plan to do after this?

"What do you mean?

"It's the Rosa Pirates. Sure...... you didn't respond to the mass conversion by sending a letter from King Cerda, did you?

The Rosa Pirates only named the Knights and had great guts.

As a result, they continue to squeeze.

"Isn't it time we ran out of food?

"What do you think? If you were killing and eating horses early, wouldn't you have some more? Depending on your savings, you'll be able to stand it a little longer. And... you can't eat weeds, rats, lizards, straw in the worst dirt walls."

Regardless of rats and lizards, weeds and straw seem to be more challenging for humans to eat.

Humans cannot break down cellulose.

"And then you are... well... no, let's not"

"Wait, Your Majesty. What did you try to say now?

"Hope it helps, everyone!

"Wait!!!

"Um, Your Majesty. What are the intentions of this?

"It just costs a lot to keep surrounding you. Nevertheless, this island will not be stable without subjugating them. So... I thought I'd do a break-up job."

Before Elquille and Carolina, Nia, Oscar and Edmond......

The inhabitants of Rosa Island had been gathered.

But it wasn't just collected by the dark clouds.

It was… the families, relatives, lovers and friends of the knights and inhabitants currently standing in cages.

If you want to help them, name them.

And Elquille commanded it.

Erkühr confirmed that almost everyone had gathered before riding on the podium to speak to them.

"Thank you for coming together, gentlemen. No, they're really happy that some pirates care so much about them."

Elquille said with a provocative grin, looking down at them.

Many swallow their anger and grip their fists hard.

"But pathetic. As it is...... they will die. It's also a very painful way to die. Can those who have been eaten by men (...) or those who have eaten men (...) go to heaven in fulfilment? You don't know unless you ask a theologian. Well, they're heretics, so either way, are you sure they're going to hell? Whoa, so you guys were heretics, too. It's good to see you again in hell."

Ha ha!

And Elquille said with a laugh.

With anger and hatred in their eyes, the inhabitants glanced at Elquille.

Their thoughts will be one.

"You go to hell!" and…

But here...

Erkühr smiled calmly.

"But I don't want them or you guys to go to hell. No, it's true. Hopefully all will be saved.... so I'll give you guys a chance. It's a last resort to save those who are dear to you.... Well, if you don't want to hear what I have to say, you don't mind walking away from here. I don't blame it. I'm sure it will be hard to live in the future."

That's what Elquille said...

I looked around at the residents.

Not a single one leaves.

Elquille nodded contentedly.

"You guys were wise and helpful. Me and you will be the same. I want to help them. So why don't we say the terms? Mass conversion from heretical sect to Orthodox Mesianism. That is the condition under which I grant surrender. But in spite of this willingness to convert, some will not be able to convert because of fools and will die. This is so pathetic. There..."

Erkühl grins with a giggle.

"First you convert from heretical sect to orthodox. And... allow only those who convert to send out letters specifically recommending conversion to their beloved on the other side of the walls (...). And of the beloved on the other side of the wall, as for him who hath consented to conversion... let him surrender. Most importantly, Rosa, if the pirates don't allow me to open the walls and let your loved ones out... I can't do anything about it. The pirates will depend on how much they love you, your loved ones."

Against the words of Elquille......

Residents reacted differently.

Some are happy to be able to help...

Some regret, but still show the colour of joy...

While some are angry, they have no choice but to swallow...

Some show the colour of stray...

Some were outraged that they could not possibly drink such terms.

See how those residents react...

The Carolinas realized what Elquille was trying to do.

Split rule.

The conditions offered by Erkühl are…

It meant that the inhabitants of Rosa Island were divided into two parts.

One drank the terms of the Elquille, accepted the reign of the Lemurian Empire, converted to Orthodox......

Someone who can help his family and friends without being heavily taxed and can live happily ever after.

The other does not drink the terms of the Erkühl, does not accept the reign of the Lemurian Empire, remains Western Messianism, is heavily taxed, sees and kills family and friends without being able to help them, and is frustrated by guilt, who can live in pain in the future.

The former will never again defy Elkür, and will neglect the latter, which stimulates Elkür.

The latter will continue to defy Erkühl... but on the other hand, it is by continuing to have a deep sense of who I am that I have left the beloved to die. I have no pure resentment towards Erkühl, and I hate the former, which I have inflicted on Lemuria.

If the inhabitants of Rosa Island divide, they cannot work together against Lemuria.

And again...

Even on the other side of the walls will be divided into three parts: the helpless and the helpless, and those who were reached out but refused to do so.

Carolina (as always while my husband......)

Nia (That's Your Majesty...... lovely!

Oscar (will we be split before we even realize it?

Edmond (use no force, reduce enemy power with just your mouth...... I have to say that's just right)

"Well... Gentlemen, what do we do?

Erkühr said with a niggling grin.

"Oh my god, you Lemuria!! Do a despicable imitation!!

Rosa Knights captain, Jean trembled in anger.

Emperor Lemuria was running out of food at this time... only to those who had a plea for the life of their family, best friends and lovers who converted to Orthodox Messianism, not mass conversions... even individual conversions are forgiven.

I have suggested that.

Its purpose is undoubtedly the partition of the Knights of Rosa and the inhabitants of Rosa Island.

"... how many?

"There are two thousand non-combatants and about five hundred to the Knights."

Jean worried about her troubles...

"... leave it to free will"

"Are you sure?

"... it's already a loss. If... I've never crossed the line with less dead people. Instruct only those who wish to preserve their faith to remain. … will not stop those who want to live until they disobey God"

Jean...

I said as I bit my lips off.

He knew.

that this is the purpose of Emperor Lemuria.

Emperor Lemuria is the Knights of Rosa. Regardless, pirates ravaging the coast of the Lemurian Empire and...

A person who cooperates with pirates.

And I want to show the dissidents in the country what happens when they turn against themselves...

But... I don't want to be resented.

What he craves is fear, not hatred.

Hatred could leave a new spark.

Therefore... this is the kind of roundabout.

"Oh... God, save us..."

Jean prayed to God hand in hand.

But...

God just kept silent.

And...

Then five months passed.

Some accept conversion by pleading for the life of their beloved and go out of the walls alive...

Some died of hunger and plague.

Initially, a fortress of four thousand knights and six thousand surrounding residents stood in cages...

It was reduced to 3,000 during the nine-month offensive.
