The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

Episode 240: Ange's Return Previous *

Angelica Sacramenta finally reached the border after an escape like walking in the abyss of purgatory.

When he swam the river, crossed the border, entered the realm of the Krah, exchanged gold and food in the colonial village, and stopped having trouble with food, he increased his speed at once and returned to the Tirrerme Divine Empire.

It took three months for that itinerary, and by then, already, the report of the reformed fall had echoed the Tirrerme Divine Empire.

Ange first returned to Altima and rested the soldiers for three days before heading to Andar, the Imperial capital, to ascertain the current situation.

By the time Ange arrived in Andar, three weeks had already passed since the arrival of a messenger from the Republic of Albio.

It was a situation where couriers with seals were running around the country.

No small lord or mercenary group can afford the ransom.

We needed to raise money by ourselves, and when we received a seal with the amount of the ransom, everyone ran around for the money.

The exchange was supposed to be an exchange of gold or Shan slaves in kind, so the price of Shan slaves skyrocketed.

The exchange ratio was that for one Shan slave, four soldiers of the same age if the slave was a woman and two men of the same age, so this one was more efficient from the market price, but less advantageous when the market price went up.

However, in various parts of the country, the owner of the whorehouse was unjustly arrested to add to the ransom, and Shan slaves were taken in successively.

The Lord of the farm and others, who used the Shan slaves of men mainly, also exercised the power of the Lords and took their slaves.

The slaves of the Shans are now the same as gold, especially the lords of the whorehouses and others who were originally full of suspicious qualities, and did not buy popular objections either, as any reason could be given for arresting them, etc.

It was an easier and more immediate alternative to raising the overall tax rate.

Those who did not need to worry about the law went out to more direct means.

The Republic of Albio did not examine access routes, etc., as the only problem was the state of health.

I mean, I didn't mind getting it criminally, so the mercenary corps and others used it as a substitute for ransom by attacking farms, whorehouses, etc. and abducting Shan slaves.

In other countries, because the king was alive, he seemed to press the king to make a lump sum payment, and the royal family acted as a point of contact to negotiate, but in the Tirrerme Divine Empire he could not do so because the king his person was absent.

In the seal, the captive species, the person, said, "Like to construct gold ○ ○. Sometimes it was sandwiched with paper that instructed the family to dispose of and pay for what castle it was in the treasury.

A rare example was that of the Count, who immediately succeeded the governor in a successor dispute, making and depositing a contract from hand to hand to let go of ownership of the real estate, and the envoy of the Republic of Albio coming to a large city to sell the real estate directly to a third party and raise ransom.

My uncle, who fought in the course of the succession struggle, was alive and well and could not trust the clan.

But wherever I looked, there was no letter for Alfred Sacramenta, and the queen left behind even after Angelica climbed the castle was only in mourning, and without a ransom demand, there was no appearance of being constructed.

Fortunately, his brother, Alfred Sacramenta, had died in battle.

"I would definitely like to ask you to hold an election for the champion in the near future"

Ange said before the nine contestants in line, without even bowing his head.

"Why?

Lord Vivi-Orlandorf said.

"Premature."

says Uncle Diver Emperor.

An Imperial Uncle is a kind of position, not necessarily a hereditary system, placed for the purpose of presiding over the Emperor in the absence of the Emperor.

It is not endowed with enclosure, but is called the Imperial Uncle to administer the direct jurisdiction of the Emperor.

It is appropriate, in fact, to refer to the belly of the emperor and to a prime minister or minister.

At the time of the replacement, it was possible to have about one exemplary of the will of the former emperor, which was the result of numerous emperor efforts and compromises on the part of the elect emperor Hou.

The name "Hou” is not dressed as a prime minister or minister, so he is named Emperor Uncle.

The former Imperial Uncle was the Oldinant Imperial Uncle and he was now the brother of the late Gustave.

After Alfred sat on the throne of the emperor, it was the newly appointed Lord Diver.

In fact, it is often the case that during his lifetime the emperor appoints a son who is responsible for the next, which means that a person who is surely seen as the next emperor holds a vote.

However, since the interpretation has only one-ninth of the influence, there have been numerous instances in which the eight electorate emperors were bought and unable to climb as a result of being spare bodies because of the next emperor, which we all acknowledge.

"The fall of Emperor Alfred has not been confirmed"

"But the fact that it wasn't mentioned in the name of the prisoner exchange should not be considered collapsed already?

"Take a Kingsguard, maybe he's still sneaking around in the woods"

Uncle Diver's emperor, though it was a natural attitude from the standpoint, was not obsessed either.

He may be lurking in the woods with the knights of the nearest abode.

At first glance, it seems possible.

But if I give it a good one, it's like my husband's missing wife can't remarry, and after all the hours, she won't be able to run for election emperor.

"The Royal Siyarta Army has already taken control of Reformation. We need to make an election emperor as soon as possible and set up a new emperor"

said Ange.

This reasoning was supposed to be certain persuasive.

In the last election emperor, the kingdom of Kirchena was still alive, but had just won the enemy army with pleasure in the Marsenas meeting, and there was a considerable military respite.

This time, I don't have time to spend ten years electing emperors, like I did last time.

"And it's premature"

Uncle Diver Emperor said it again.

"We are now demanding that the envoy of the Republic of Albio confirm the safety of His Majesty the Emperor Alfred. If you are already deceased, it is polite to return your body. It won't be too late for that response."

Ange was stuck responding.

The information was unknown to Ange, and the reason was there.

"... what if the other side was ignoring it? As Lord Diver Emperor Uncle said, if you have entered the forest of the White Wolf Peninsula, for example, and you have secretly died there, you will not be able to confirm. Are you waiting three or four years for a response?

"That's not something to think about right now. It's only been two weeks since I made demands on Albio's messenger. After a month and a half of conveying, a month and a half of replying, and about two and a half more months, if your body returns, you should finish the national funeral and start thinking about it for the first time."

"Knock..."

Ange did not carry on two sentences.

When it was about ten seconds after that,

"If you untie history,"

And, the Vigiterholm border uncle spoke.

"The Shans have never invaded the Tyrrelme area. I've never greeted you."

Ange filled her head with question marks.

What are you talking about, you old man?

Are you scared?

"I don't necessarily want"

- You just wanted to show off the knowledge you have in your rotten brain library.

Ange decided to convince herself to do so.

In this case, the Tirrerme region refers to the main part of the so-called province of Tirrerme, which is the same as the ○ ○ region.

"If you want to savor the bitterness of the time of the Battle of Cartiere, feel free. But just because a woman didn't hit you doesn't mean a man won't. Now the kingdom of Siyalta is ruled by Yuri Howe."

That's what Ange said, taking a seat.

"I feel better."

says Lord Vivi-Orlandorf.

"Let's call it dissolution. As Lord Diver Emperor Uncle said, it is now right to wait a while for a response from the other side. I'll let you go home."

Ange went home and turned around after two steps.

Because I thought you should say something.

"I'll tell you one thing, if you think Yuri Howe's victory is a coincidence, that's a big mistake. When the Queen was murdered and the Crown overthrew, he was merely the son of a local lord. That stabilized the country three months later and took a month to destroy 120,000 troops. It is we, the Tirrerme god empire, whose army is heading straight for us. Think about it carefully."

Two months later, it was one day.

Ange was in a room in a house he rented outside Andar, where he was in executive duty.

Write letters, meet people, be invited, or invite, eat and talk.

I prefer to attend parties and so on, respond to people and talk about things in battle.

That's how Ange was getting more supporters.

Many have already treated me as the next empress.

On the subject, there was still a lot about the return of prisoners.

Five months after the battle, the exchange of prisoners ended smoothly in the kingdom of Frusha and elsewhere, and many nobles made their return.

But there was not a single returnee in the Tirrerme Divine Empire.

Since they took me to the north and made me do the opening work, there was an explanation that the journey was taking time, etc., but the truth is that many people are feeling anxious.

The kingdom of Frusha, though good because it is still far away, the empire of the Tirrerme god is directly bordered by the kingdom of Siyalta.

Given that, the return of troops will be directly linked to the reinforcement of this one.

So I don't suppose you're going to give it back for a reason.

No, wasn't the plague endemic and wiped out?

Various theories had been whispered.

In the meantime, Ange was trying to write a personal letter to one of the Earls she met at the party and set up a meeting.

The door was knocked and the voice of one of his squire was heard.

"Dear Ange, from the Royal Castle of Andar, there is Mr. Leonard"

"Let it pass."

After saying so for a while, the door opened.

"Welcome, Lord Leonard Diver"

"Your Highness Angelica, I didn't know you lived in such a crude house"

Leonard frowned and moaned.

Leonard was the son of Uncle Emperor Diver, who was still young.

I will be twenty-two this year.

I do things like run for use, but for some reason I have become a supporter of Ange, and I haven't even hidden it.

The deed belongs to the loyal minister, who also wants to take the oath of his subordinate, etc., but it is now on hold.

I don't know if loyalty is false or sincere, so it was the truth that I was deliberately keeping my distance.

"Leon Sacramenta, the country's ancestor, was also a fisherman in the fishing village. I'd be happy to live in a house like this."

In fact, renting a house in Imperial Capital was too expensive.

You can't let a man of your breed sleep in a miscellaneous fish even though it's not a battlefield, so you have to give a private room to a minister of your service, and given the security room, you need a house of considerable size.

It is better to build in a suburb where there are a few fields, as soon as the enemy is imminent, and a house like the one made by Tomino has many rooms and is easy to use.

"That's over, too. Because there will be an election for the emperor."

Leonard turned over a roll of paper.

I've been stringing parchment, and there's a wax.

Ange broke the seal when she received it and opened the rolled paper as she twirled and looked inside.

Indeed, it says that in a month there will be elections for the Election Emperor.

In fact, it was in the form of a convocation of a meeting of electoral emperors for the election of electoral emperors, but the same thing.

There is no candidate for conflict other than Ange, and the atmosphere in the country is determined by Ange's monochrome.

If you choose the others out of curiosity, it's more obvious than seeing fire that you can't counter the threat of Yuri Howe.

Ange was convinced that the electing emperor would choose himself.

Has your brother's collapse been confirmed?

"Yes, just for the record..."

Leonard, in a small office, approached Ange a few steps closer.

"- What?"

"I received your clothes, which Master Alfred had wrapped around. The chest has spear marks..."

Leonard stroked sully with his fingers at the middle of his left chest.

It would mean there was a piece of spear there.

"It was snugly dirty with dry blood. The collapse is certain."

"Right..."

Ange felt like the weight of her heart had fallen on her lid.

I've told others that my brother emperor is dead, but I guess he was considering the possibility that he was still alive somewhere in his mind.

Right, is he dead?

"What else, letters, etc?

"Come on... me too, until I eavesdropped on your father's story, so that's it..."

"Right."

"Perhaps it means that returning the body is after waiting to become a bone?

"Right."

Whether you're transporting a body or something that's buried and rotten, it's creepy.

If the body cannot be returned quickly without decay having begun, whitewashing it and then returning the bone was something that is also done occasionally in Tirrerme.

"Well, did your brother emperor die..."

Ange was in a delightfully sad, complicated mood.

"Lord Leonard, you must leave today. I'd like to pray a little."

"Yes, I did. I'm really sorry for your loss."

Leonard, showing all his condolences in form, left the room.

Ange closed her eyes and prayed for the best.
