Survival in Another World With My Master

Episode 039: What's the Way Forward?

In the meantime, I've decided to release all the weapons I've made so far to the people in this fort. The people here will either operate my advanced weapon directly in the upcoming liberation of the kingdom of Merinard, or they will see it nearby. I need to show them to Da Nang, Merti, Isla and Cubi who are leaving messages in the village.

They all reacted quite a bit. Basically, Jagila and Pirna, who are soldiers rather than samurai, have a favorable reaction. Ser Leonard and Ms Zamir, the samurai rather than the soldiers, responded negatively.

"No, none of this is amazing. If all of us had these weapons, we'd be headed nowhere.

"This aerial bomb is amazing! I think it's amazing to be able to attack unilaterally from the sky."

It's like this. Simply feels happy with a strong weapon. Powerful weapons can kill many enemies and increase your chances of survival. You'll be happy as a soldier.

"Somehow... there's nothing to be proud of, no force, no samurai."

"Forged flesh and polished moves are like pieces of paper in front of Koske's weapon."

Both of them have very subtle expressions. Not as good as baristas and pistols. It seems to be a range of weapons for two with superhuman physical abilities and polished moves. No, I think it's amazing, too.

But anti-personnel mines, shotguns, and revolvers don't matter. Two or three bullets or barista arrows flying at high speeds can do anything, but countless bullets and metal pieces flying at once seem helpless.

I insisted that it was okay, so I actually shot Sir Leonard with an automatic gun, but all the bullets were cut off with a two-handed Falsion. What is it? You're an animated character or something.

"If you look at the gaze and the muzzle, the trajectory of the bullet is pretty much readable."

"The bullets are quick and small, but they can be handled compared to the proximity projectiles that the master fires."

"Hmm, well, how about a pistol...?

Jagila also agreed while twisting her head. Seriously?

"Well, a pistol can handle it. Bolt action rifle bullets are too fast to be fired at close range."

"Seriously."

Sylphie was on that side, too. No, I didn't think so.

"Hmm... is the direction of the weapon I'm trying to use wrong...?

"No, I don't think so. I'm sure Koske's weapon is strong."

"Yes, I've never seen such a powerful weapon for Harpy."

Jagila and Pirna deny my words.

"I still think I'm a weapon for humans. It's a good idea or a great weapon, but it's the same for humans and for us."

"That's right. Our strength is that overall we are better at physical abilities than humans. I thought that hand-thrown bullet was a good weapon. We can be thrown farther away than humans. I thought it was a little too light."

Sir Leonard and Ms Zamir are dry comments. What about Sylvie?

"I'm worried if Koske's weapon is taken by the Holy King. I don't think it's going to be copied soon, but when the Holy Kings start using the same weapon, they won't be able to handle it."

"Mm, I'm sure you're afraid of catching him."

It is very odd that the Earth's killing weapon is reverse engineered from the prey and used in this world. I told Sylvie one day that knowledge of weapons is very dangerous.

Crossbow will be easy to imitate from the catch, and the gunpowder used in guns and bombs can be solved in a magical way, such as being a unique substance in the world. It is a world of magic and alchemy.

It's analyzed by something like appraisal magic, smelted by alchemy, and I can't tell you that there's no flow.

"Mm, mmm..."

"Koske began to grow old."

"Oh, it looks like it's going to be long. I'll go check the fields."

Ah, I'm coming, too.

Jagila and Pilna stopped to walk to the field and thought.

We must win first. That's why I've been thinking about weapons that can kill people efficiently. Because it takes strength to win and take it back.

However, the weapons that I created were originally designed by humans on Earth to kill each other. A weapon that naturally specializes in killing people efficiently. Of course, the user also assumes human beings. However, the target was rabbits and horns, and the user was an outsider. Should we review it in the direction of subhuman easy-to-use weapons?

No, but I can't make it clear that it tastes bad when it's caught. Hmm... do we need to reverse the idea in the first place?

The idea in the first place is that I made the weapon. You talked to Sylvie earlier, not just killing, but looking in the direction of saving.

The weapons we have built so far are based on the idea that we must destroy the troops of the Holy King in order to recapture the Kingdom of Merinard. In other words, territorial recapture through the use of force. Let's try to reverse the idea here.

In other words, instead of fighting back and taking back the kingdom of Merinard, we will try to find other ways.

Other than the direct use of force... hmm?

If we reverse the idea, instead of fighting back and taking back the kingdom of Merinard, do we discuss it and ask for it back?

No, I don't think so. The Holy King is a fanatical monotheistic religious state. Besides, the idea of exclusivity to subhumans. If we settle this through discussion, we can't attack the Kingdom of Merinard and nationalize it in the first place. Rejected.

So you give up taking back the kingdom of Merinard? No, I don't think so. Sylvies' desire to regain their homeland is real. Recapture of the Merinard kingdom as a goal would be a must.

When I thought about it... Jagila and Pirna came back in a hurry.

"That field is amazing! I'm growing up to harvest!

"If there were such a field, I'd be able to live in the great wilderness of Omit. There's also water."

"That's it!!

That's right, Omit. Why don't we build a new Melinard kingdom in the wilderness? I can build as many safe houses and roads as I want, and I can build as many fields as I want with a farmland block. The harvest is fast.

I don't know how long we can promote cultivation, but if it goes down over time, it won't be worse than a normal field.

Build forts, roads, cities, and nations in the Omit Wilderness. Then gather the subordinates who are suffering under the rule of the Holy King to increase the power of the nation. I'm sure the Holy Kings won't shut up either. Defeat it with the weapon you developed. And eventually swallow the territory of the kingdom of Merinard.

It's a long story, but it's not like we have to hurry to recapture the kingdom of Merinard. It's been a long time since the kingdom of Merinard was nationalized, and it was a few years ago that Da Nang and the others rebelled. That is why there will be opinions that it is as soon as possible, but if so much time has passed, the reverse will also be true.

In the first place, my craft abilities are clearly more defensive than offensive.

"Koske, what's that?"

"No, I don't know if we can all agree."

In advance, I will tell everyone the flash of Jagila and Pilna's thoughts. Then they all looked so much like I had an idea.

"Hmm, I don't think it's a bad idea. We are small in number. I think we can win the battle with Koske's weapons, but in fact, it was difficult to maintain the occupied cities and lands. I think it makes sense to get ready in the great wilderness of Omit and recruit allies to increase the number."

"Many subpopulations are hiding in the kingdom of Merinard and surrounding countries. If we can tell them that Princess Sylvie is safe and that we are exploring the great wilderness of Omit, there is a chance that people will come together."

"But wouldn't that make you a holy kingdom?

"Then why don't we use Mr. Koske's weapon to defeat him?

My idea seemed to be generally popular with people other than Silfi. So what about Sylphie?

"... I want to recapture the kingdom of Merinard as soon as possible"

Sylvie's squeezing voice cooled the air in the area that was in favor of mood.

Yeah, Sylphie is. Perhaps Sylvie's relatives' elves have been enslaved by the Holy King's kingdoms, and their dignity continues to be violated at this moment. I understand your desire to recapture it as soon as possible.

"But Koske's idea is realistic. We are small and too weak. With the help of Koske, he gained power and spread death among the Holy King's kingdoms. Is that what this is about? Koske's power is not universal. As long as we're attacking based on the abundance of materials, it'll be over if we can't replenish our defenses."

I see. My abilities are not the ability to take anything useful out of nothing. I'm running out of supplies. I'm just a normal person who can move a little more strangely than a normal person. "

In fact, if you continue to be attacked from all directions relying on numbers, there is a high probability that your supplies will run out early and get packed. And the ability of Sylphies to fight on my strength will drastically diminish. Then there is no way to be inferior Sylvies in numbers. It is nothing but vandalism.

"Okay, let's go with that policy. We build strongholds and build strength in the Omit Wilderness. But I don't think that's enough. We will need work to infiltrate the kingdom of Merinard and bring the people into the great wilderness of Omit."

"That's true. The troops of the Holy King's kingdom, regardless of the King's capital or the big city, do not necessarily deploy great power to small villages. I think it is imperative to visit the villages, liberate our compatriots and lead them to the new heavens and earth."

"Some of our fellow human beings are hiding in the kingdom of Merinard. They can travel within the kingdom of Merinard relatively safely compared to subhumans. It will spread the word that we are based in the great wilderness of Omit."

Sir Leonard and Ms. Zamir agree with Silfi's policy. Jagila and Pirna also nodded.

"I agree with the policy, too. You might want to think about the equipment for the infiltration."

Maybe camouflage clothes, camouflage cloaks, backpacks that carry a lot of luggage. A portable water purifier or a portable food for storage would also be helpful.

It might also be better to make underground shelters that are difficult to find close to the Kingdom of Merinard. It's a temporary shelter and stockpile of supplies. Should there be other rifle suppressors...? No, crossbow's good enough? I want Jagira and Cubby's opinions.

"You look like you're thinking a lot again, Koske."

I see. I'm thinking about undercover gear, building shelters that might be hard for my enemies to find. "

"You look better than when you're thinking about weapons to kill people."

"Really? I think so."

It's easier than thinking about weapons that kill a lot of people efficiently. The rescue operation is almost entirely up to us. I have to build and expand my base.

It was good to have a new goal and a firm policy. I haven't talked to Da Nang and the others yet, but I'm sure they'll agree. I'd like to talk to Isla about things, and I'd like to go back to the village once the harvest is over.
