The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

The day after Oran's wife and son were murdered, I entered Kotsuraha, into the mansion's conference room.

There's a whole array of faces there, starting with Kien.

At the end of the seat, there was a nice, prestigious lady sitting.

It's Tigris Hammon.

I have not said that I will not come under the curtain, but I do not think it is scum, so I called him and let him sit on this occasion.

Dressed neatly with a raised collar, long hair wrapped around the back of his head and dripping.

When I was a year, would I be about thirty years old?

Hi, the Hammons didn't have any traces of a man at all, and they also talked about getting adopted... but they became lords to every woman because Tigris affirmed, "No, I'll go to the cavalry and carry on the trail".

A clan lord is a landlord with several knights below, which will take on the nature of a frontier uncle as he goes to a region away from the territorial capital.

Distance is an important element for the act of governance, which still ceases to work as it gets farther away.

When a small independent territory falls apart in a region, it is blind and you do not know what you are doing.

An elaborate bureaucratic mechanism will be needed to make it so kitchy and suppressive, but there is no such thing for knights who are oblivious to politics.

So let's make the trustworthy local lords and leave the great realm to them. That was the quick way to govern in previous years.

There is no such thing as a knight for a woman, but it is rare that it is a clan lord.

Because in the process of taking office, the surrounding people put in cross spears, and most of the time there are as many stars as there are who want to be son-in-law and clan.

It would have taken a lot of effort both to take office and to maintain it, as a knight would be a fine knight if he had received a Knight's degree, so there is nothing wrong with it, but knights are the domain of men in a feminist state after all.

I don't know my background well, but the fact that I surrendered without bleeding seems to me to have a certain ability and track record, as it is quite a popular proof left.

Depending on the extent of the war, if Tigris is more unpopular and the Boff family is more popular, letting him open the castle bloodlessly, etc. is all the more impossible.

There's bound to be a clash somewhere, and it's not a child beating fight, it's a clash between soldiers with weapons that kill people, so there's death.

"It's taken you two weeks to attack the Boff family. The rest are the Nozas."

I said.

Two weeks. It's time for the next flight.

I've been waiting a long time for information on the Albio Republic, but I haven't heard from you since the 14th.

"What did Lord Yuri think?

Kien Rube has asked.

Lyao wasn't here. They're tasked with suppressing the northern part of the Noza family.

"The Boff family could have attacked each city without time to issue a circular because they were in the absence of Orone Boff, but the Noza family won't either. There are soldiers in Lord Kien's realm, aren't there?

"Mm-hmm. I checked with eagles, and they have about 3,000 cages. There is no city on the border."

Near the realm of the Noza and Rube families, it seems, is land like villages are just dotted in frozen fjords, with a uniform path through the villages, but not fertile enough for an urban-like city to form.

Well, if you need it in defense, you can even build a fort, but that costs money to maintain, so if there's no war, it's no use, so I guess you didn't build it.

Generals and generals are not virtual enemies in the first place.

"It seems to be well guarded by evacuating the inhabitants of the village closest to the border and stretching backwoods"

"Dimitri, tell us what's going on in this realm."

Near the realm is the enclosure of the Daz family, where Dimitri is the lord.

"On the south side, too, there are those first castle moves, but in large measure, no soldiers are deployed. Five hundred people is something like that at best. You're going to pull to Oregano as far as the south is concerned."

From Oregano to the realm, there is quite a distance, but in the meantime there is no town of loch.

You seem ruthless, but you might be right to abandon it.

Speaking of which, Senior Lily's home was a little north of Oregano.

It's a premeditated home, so my father won't be marching, but we have to protect him.

"Was the road through the mountains a Utane? That seems to be the thickest, but it seems difficult because it's an easy terrain to protect."

Utane is the main point on the trading route connecting Oregano, the territorial capital of the Noza family, with Shibjak, which deviates north due to the undulation of the mountain range, but it seems to be maintained compared to the others.

It's just a narrow, defensive side of the terrain.

When it comes to attacking from here, it's hard to fight, but it also raises the issue of supply lines.

Because the length of the supply line is not the only constraint on it, but naturally affects the dangers along the way.

A narrow, steep mountain path is the most difficult environment to replenish.

Where we were able to break through, food and other supplies would have to continue for a large army to operate beyond it.

Of course, the supply ladder row will support the supply by extending and coming through the steep road.

I doubt the carriage will even have a different road.

Like some Thunderlight famous for his passing, it would be nice if he could replenish the food by pillaging it across the river, but he can't do that either.

In the first place, the territory of the Noza family is dead land, so I don't know if I can make up for it even if I plunder it.

Still, if it's strategically advantageous, do it, but it's nothing. The Nozas don't have all the entrances blocked in the mountains, and the north and south are usually empty in Gabagaba, so why not bother crossing them?

At least, I didn't feel like it.

"If you're on guard, you won't even have to bother using the Either way, if you pinch it north or south, Noza is the end of a roll. Because the problem is how to defeat them."

"The number of casualties from the fall of Wang Du was about 300."

"That's right. There were two cities in battle."

"There are eight thousand soldiers in the Noza family, this time in a guttering battle. That's a hassle."

As Dimitri said, we will certainly be able to overwhelm our enemies in every battle station.

Though this one also loses a thousand or two thousand soldiers.

"First, let's recommend surrender"

Dimitri said what I was trying to say.

"Non was thinking about it, too. I've known him for a long time, but he's a really cautious guy. Outside, I might have a light drink. He's great as a leader, but he's not in the mood to fight from the beginning."

People reviews of what Kien calls Borafra Noza are harsh, but did something happen back in the day......

"Right. He didn't move his soldiers at all, like the last time he was in the Crusades."

Dimitri agreed.

"You're right to exchange positions. Noza was in the front of Tirrerme, so he took over the danger. If I'd left it there, they'd have pulled it out."

They had a lot going on in the Crusades, too.

"Let's just go in the direction of applying for talks. If that's all, it's free, and we need time to move the soldiers north and south anyway."

"Uhm. Whether the meeting place is Utah... it's not a good idea to keep him alert. He's a really cautious guy. Let them decide over there and they'll say," Utane. "

I wonder about that.

Kien can ride the eagle in large measure, but I don't know if Borafra Noza can.

If you can't get on the eagle, it's going to be tough until you get to the meeting point, as all the boundaries between the Noza family and the other mountains are along the ridge.

Even if he had the title of Heavenly Knight, he wouldn't really be able to ride it.

Flying in eagles really involves the risk of death, and there are a lot of people who have a long blank in their experience because they used to ride but stopped riding anymore...

"So that's what I'm going to do... so I'm going to make a sentence now. They're all here."

"I don't mind."

"Well, then, Tireto, get me a lady or someone who might be familiar with the mansion."

Tell Tileto standing in the corner of the room,

"I'm not your servant..."

and, dissatisfied, left the room.

I guess he went to get the girl inside.

You complain, but you obey orders.

"Is that a king's sword?

Dimitri said.

"Oh. For once, I was bringing him in. I might use it for sabotage."

"I see."

Gachari and the door were empty, and an old woman appeared.

Fast.

"I brought you here."

I guess I was just outside the room.

The old lady seemed so frightened that she leaned out of sight with no one.

"What can I do for you..."

"Excuse me. I'm sorry, could you bring me one note and an envelope? And the writing and the preparation of the wax."

"Oh, um... it's going to be our sealed one..."

"Yeah, I don't mind any of it"

I smiled nicely to ease the tension in the woman.

"And if you'll excuse me..."

That's what the woman said and left the room behind.

"You ask a lot more politely. To me, you have a cross mouth."

Tyreto seems dissatisfied.

"I'm sorry, I always respect it in my heart, but when I put it in my mouth, it's a different word. It's a tribute in my heart, so never mind."

"You..."

Tileto said as if he had been stunned.

"Buffoo."

Someone blew it out.

"Ha-ha-ha. No, excuse me."

It was Kien who laughed.

Did the joke just crack you up on the bump?

So the door of the room opened in a chatter.

"I brought..."

During the old woman, a set of basins was placed on her desk.

"Thank you"

"No...... Bye"

I bowed my head and left the room.

"I'll write."

Talking Offer

I would like to set up a place for discussion once, including the treatment of the Noza family, and apply for talks here.

1: Location of the meeting

To be designated at the Noza family. Provided that the location is not within your territorial area and that you specify a location within your territorial area.

It is unacceptable to hold a meeting in a place where there is danger, such as a place where it is necessary for a small group to penetrate deeply into the realm.

Designate a common sense location, not at the top of a steep mountain.

2: Deadline for response

As we are in a hurry to prepare ourselves against our Crusaders, we will turn the eagle over to the Howe family and send a response within April.

Taking into account the time of communication of the written text, if no response is received by 3 May, this written text shall be replaced by a declaration of war and an invasion shall commence.

If a response is received, the opening of the war shall be postponed.

3: Timing of talks

To be designated at the Noza family. As specified for the period from April 25 to May 7.

As we are in a hurry to prepare against our Crusaders, we cannot accommodate the extension of the specified period, etc.

Regarding the short deadline, please understand that it is disrespectful.

4: on witch-owned memoirs and the treatment of the Noza family

We possess the Memorial as a covenant of witchcraft ownership, and the covenant between you and the witchcraft shall have existed, and we do not acknowledge this and consider it to be abolished for the survival of the House of Noza as a Throne.

However, I do not intend to incriminate the Noza family, headed by Borafra Noza, if they are to surrender.

It seeks only the deprivation of the titles of the heavens and the return of the enclosures.

We squander the loss of human life, the consumption of costs and, above all, the waste of time caused by the invasion.

Why spare it. Because if your house surrenders, all of them that should be mourned, can be turned over to the Crusaders.

If a speedy settlement is to take place and disarmament and the surrender of territory are to take place, I would like to give you the corresponding thanks and treatment in addition to the pardon for your sins.

Yuri Hou

Finally finished writing.

"Can I have something like this"

Do paper to Kien.

Kien perused the contents, signed them when she finished reading them, and returned them.

"You're a boulder. I can also snort what I saw in the Cavalry in recent years as a rare talent."

"Tigris. How about you, too"

When I turned my mouth, Tigris looked at me.

"I..."

"Nothing, I don't want you to be the representative of the Boff family. Well, if I had your signature, it would be a little hackneyed. Read it. If you don't like it, you don't have to sign it."

"... ok"

Tigris, who had an extra long desk and sat alone in the last seat, came to me to pick up the writing.

Tyreto didn't trust her, he came from the wall to my side and showed me the structure of slashing her instantly if he made a strange move.

I don't trust you either, but if it's a knife pull that killed Einola, it's quicker for me to pull out a short knife and prevent it.

Tigris, when he received it without anything, returned to his last seat and began reading the writing.

"So, who did that?

I turned back and said to Kien.

"The cousin of Nong is the director of the cavalry."

"Oh...... Labello Rube? I haven't really talked about it."

Were you a cousin?

"I hear the exempted units were the most in history."

"Was it? I didn't know."

No, seriously.

Was it the most?

"Well, I guess we'll have plenty of free time early in school."

"I owe it to that leisure time to be able to create Howe Co. I wonder what would have happened if there wasn't an exemption mechanism."

If you were normally busy, you might not normally have thought about creating a Howe company.

Then I didn't have a ship, I didn't have a space-faring voyage, I didn't have a new continent, I didn't have a flame bottle, I didn't have printing technology.

"Is it true that he was doing it apart from the Howe family?"

"No, as business grows, witch jamming gets more intense. In the end, it turned out to be like under the Howe family umbrella. Until then, I came without my parents' help, and I didn't mean it."

You regretted it.

I didn't want to have to rely on my parents after all, even as I made an excuse in my heart that it was fair because I would pay taxes and pay for security.

"Hmmm... even if I just don't rely on my parents for money, it sounds amazing"

"Well, thanks to you, I sprayed the order (Billa), and I could make a flame bottle. The money money we started then is helping the war. I really don't know what's going on."

While chatting with Kien, Tigris took a seat and came this way.

When I put the paper on my desk, I took the feather pen and signed it in Kien's name.

"Written"

Then the paper is pressed.

"Thanks"

I threefold it and put it in an envelope with an empty stamp (embossed) from the Boff family.

Above the basin are also candlesticks with heavier foundations to prevent them from falling, where the candles are lit.

Candle wax and seal wax are made differently, so they cannot be substituted.

Once he tilted the candle and threw the wax accumulating on top into the pot, he drew the wax stick closer to the fire, broiled it and drooled it in the envelope.

Gu, stamp all the way.

I got an envelope with the Boff family crest on it.

"My lord Yuri, I will give it to you in haste"

Dimitri said.

"Oh. I asked for it"

I shook the envelope gently with a patter, solidified the wax a little before giving it to him.

"So, what if Non moves his soldiers north?"

"Will you leave one good unit here at the Rube house, to a good extent? It would be easier to do this with Kotsuraha in hand when evacuating residents"

Kotsuraha exists to block the main streets connecting the Rube family to the Wang capital, a city that has always taken tariffs.

Managing internal accommodation makes evacuation easier.

If the Howe family were in control, it would be harder to contact them, and at any rate, it should be easier for them to do so if their bodies were to rule.

"That helps, but are you sure?

Can you trust me? I guess that means.

"I don't mind. The Howe family doesn't have too many soldiers. He is also responsible for the security of the Wang capital and has assigned soldiers to the training of the Second Army. Rather helpful."

"Now let's say it's sweet for you"

"After the war, it doesn't mean giving it to the Rube family."

"Haha, I know"

Kien said that with a laugh and left the room.

Lord Yuri.

After the meeting broke up, I was called out to Tigris.

Dimitri also went to make an expedition, and the others left, and all that remained was Tirreto.

"What?

"There's one thing I want to ask you. You said yesterday that you would fall into Kotsuraha in a week. How did you plan to do that?"

What, about that?

"Hmmm......"

What shall I do?

"Was it a lie to deceive this one?

"No, I was confident I'd fall for it in a week. Just don't know if I can talk to you."

"As far as it goes. I haven't kept my spear yet. I can't do that."

"No, talk. I don't care if we talk about it now."

You don't need to think about what happened after the Crusades, and in a few more years, other ways will be feasible.

"Then tell me"

"This city is fine with all its castle gates, but the walls are too thin."

"Were you going to break the wall?

Tigris frowned.

The city walls of Kozlaha are not in the way they tailored the hills and soil to the castle, they are just walls surrounding cities on flat land.

If you say it, it is an extension of the fence, and this becomes the weakest form of wall.

For example, if there was a wall next to the soil that looked like a stone wall, this wouldn't break because no matter how many cannons you shot, there was soil stuck inside.

Well, if we could just persevere and add shelling, the wall that was sharply tailored might collapse and become slopey, and end up in the same shape that it was torn, but it won't go away.

Unlike that, the city walls of Kozlakha are merely fences and thin in thickness.

It's not a castle wall or fortress wall, it's a city wall that surrounds the city, so I can't help it, but it must be weak.

It's too much of a substitute to prevent people like bandits and night thieves from breaking in, so I can even say that their roles are different than that.

"There would have been places on the north side that had not been repaired. The stones were falling out at a low point."

"... is that it?

"Dig a hole there and drill a thin hole inside the walls. Fill the entire hole with gunpowder, attach more explosive devices to it, and blow it up. Actually, I don't know if I have to try, but maybe that would have crumbled the walls. All you have to do is sneak the army in."

"So how did you plan to install the wall if it collapsed?"

"I've been watching over the wall for a few days. I was wary of all the castle gates, but the walls were poorly guarded. Do the watchmen know what you're doing under the wall at midnight?

"... I see"

Seems convinced.

"I'll tell you what, don't even think about repairing the wall if you get the chance. That is an outdated substitute. I'm going to be of no use to you. Waste of money."

"... Yes"

"Your disposition will be decided after the Nozza family is cleaned up. Until then, you should go back to your territory and work out your soldiers."

"Let me do that."

No matter how reputable you are, you are the knight of the master's slayer.

You should put aside some time, even if you're going to entrust the Boff family's army one day.
