The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World

Episode 191 Meeting with the Rube Family

April 5.

Twelve days after the fall of Wang Du.

On that day, the sky was stretched with gray clouds, a weather that could not be described as refreshing.

I was in the Royal Castle conference room drinking tea with Myalo.

In the corner of the room, Tileto also refrains.

"Yuri, let's still open it. It doesn't make much sense."

Myalo said, looking at the envelope on his desk.

There is a wax.

"No. I want to talk to them in a broken belly. I knew you'd show up for attitude."

While I was saying that, the door opened.

It was Kien Rube and Lyao Rube who showed up.

I picked him up from the chair.

"It's been a while. Lord Kien."

"Hmmm... what a big deal this time"

Kien said, what a difficult face.

He doesn't really know where to start with his condolences or how to turn on me.

Lyao looks at me with a floating face.

For a moment, I didn't miss doing my eyes to Myalo.

"Yeah, I managed to survive"

I give Kien my hand.

Kien shook her hand in response to the shake.

It was an oil-free, crusty old man's hand.

Next, ask Lyao to shake hands as well.

"You did well, Yuri"

"No, it was just a failure."

When I shook hands with Lyao, I sat in a chair.

Lyao looks at me with a surprised face.

I guess it didn't come down to failure.

"Sit down, please. Easy to talk to."

When I said that, Kien and Lyao sat side by side.

It's a mess when it comes to the upper seat, but Myalo sits next to me on my left, so I won't have a choice.

"Yes, it was in the letter."

I wrote a letter about the Crusaders and called Kien.

Lyao is the one with him.

"This is the covenant that the witches exchanged with the papal realm. I've already posted a copy of it all over the city, but it's the original."

I left the paperwork I brought from Charleville's house on my desk.

It was something like this.

Pledge

As sovereign organizer of the Crusaders, the Pope demands that the group of witches of the Kingdom of Siyalta:

1: to extinct the royal family of the Kingdom of Siyalta in any way, or to set up a royal family to be puppets of a group of witches and to change regimes.

2: to maintain the post-replacement regime until the arrival of the Crusades and to continue to obstruct the development of a defence system against the Crusades.

3: to support the attack by the Crusaders on the Kingdom of Siyarta and, if requested, to open the port of the King's capital Sibyak and accept the Crusader fleet.

4: Ensuring as much as possible the Shan people with golden hair, starting with Terru Tuni Chartre. provided, however, that this shall not apply in cases where achieving 1 is an obstacle.

5: To arrest and imprison the heretic Etha Casolica Wichita and later hand him over to the papal territory.

If the above 1-5 is achieved, the Pope's Land undertakes to the group of witches of the Kingdom of Siyalta that:

1: Grant of equal rights to Klu for up to five thousand personnel of the witch group.

2: Grant of Duke status to seven members of the witch group.

3: Protection of the rights of witch groups with regard to their property.

4: Permanent protection of ownership of land for witch groups.

Above

With the above, it shall be the covenant between the Crusaders and the group of witches of the Kingdom of Siyalta.

"As long as it takes."

Kien said.

"That's a hell of a lot of crumbs."

Lyao also says. Both of them, their faces seeped with disgust.

"Well, Lord Kien. From here on out, let me talk to you equally."

"... hmm? Hmm. Lord Yuri is no longer the Lord of the Howe family... of course, I don't mind."

It's been a tribute.

Nevertheless, from now on, it will be difficult to talk about Kyou.

"Lord Kien, do you think the Crusaders will come?

"... that, I don't know. You may not come because this is how you failed, or you may come to see that you are confused. In fact, the Queen has fallen and the king's capital is at the edge of chaos."

The truth is, it's not.

Originally, the Queen was targeting the people to see me as a hero.

And I sprinkled the billa before the figure was tarnished.

The people, while anxious about Carol's absence, largely welcome a new ruler named the Howe family.

The bureaucracy has been destroyed, so I have a headache considering things like this year's tax collection, but it is rapidly recovering, at least as regards security.

"Here's the answer to that"

I put my hands on an envelope on my desk.

The wax seal is not crushed.

"Is that...?

"The day after the assassination, I sent a message to the Arbio Republic to check out the Crusaders' trends."

So it finally arrived.

"Usually it takes twenty days for the round-trip route, but the wind was on my side and I was able to go back and forth in fourteen days. We arrived yesterday, so we called you in."

Round trip in the fourteenth seems to be lucky about once every five times that it's the wind of the season.

I was lucky.

"The calculations don't fit. It's only been more than ten days since Lord Yuri fell the King's capital."

"Things were telling us that they were going through with the Crusaders"

"Yuri. It would be a clear white matter for Yurikun, but not so easy for others to understand"

Myalo said.

"It's boring to get misunderstandings, so let me explain."

Simply and clearly explain the reasons and rationale for Myalo's decision to do so.

"… so Yuri-kun was guessing that the witch was working with the Crusaders during that day"

"Hmm..."

"Anyway, here's that reply. As you can see, it hasn't been opened. Let's open it."

"Why did you call us without opening it? It's a letter for me, so why don't you read it?"

Lyao said.

"As far as the Crusaders are concerned, I see that without the cooperation of the Rube family, there is nothing we can do about it. So this is how we waited for the opening in the sense of thinking together instead of coming to a conclusion first"

"As long as it takes."

Evidence of this is that the wax seal is not crushed. I mean, it was, in fact, an uncertain story.

Even if the wax seal is crushed, if it is in a new envelope, and a new wax seal, the disguise can easily be made.

The stamp being pressed against the wax belongs to the Cookrillison family, but it can be counterfeited with the same seal, and it doesn't prove it for sure.

It is supposed to be simple proof, but when it comes to proof, the confidence of the messenger carrying it is more important than wax sealing.

"Well, if you hadn't come today, I would have opened it. Let's open it."

"Uhm."

I broke the seal and opened the letter.

"Let me read it first. This is also the company's business contact. I'd be in trouble if there was something incredibly confidential in it."

"I don't mind."

I: General matters

About the Printed Bible

The new fitting Bible is well received. It's an order increase to go with the naked Bible. (See Annex)

Old-fashioned (I would call it that for convenience) Bible orders are now a third.

The protests from the Archbishop of the Karlugi sect appear to be even greater.

I have received a letter of objection from Dr. Etha, so I will attach it.

(As for the assassination, I can't believe it, but if it's true, I wish Her Majesty the best of luck)

II: Information

A third decree for the formation of the Crusades was issued.

This was information delivered across the strait, brought to the Republic of Albio by an urgent message dove.

The spies of the Arbio Republic in the role of listening to these crusaders are rooted in the Euphos Confederation, but as a result of the Council of the Horses, they decided to participate for the time being.

This time it was confirmed that it would undoubtedly be carried out because of the Pope's approval and the guaranteed participation of the Pope's leadership, which means that he raised his heavy waist.

(The head of the Republic of Albio seems relieved to hear the association with the conspiracy due to explanations given by the chairman. Well, it's gonna be tough, but good luck, it feels like)

(The virtual enemy nation of the Republic of Albio is the Euphos Union, so I guess we value it in intelligence terms)

Due to the fact that the decree is considerably slower than usual, it is expected that there will be shorter time to prepare for soldier stations and other things, and that this crusade will be sloppier than usual at times.

III: Commodities

As instructed, I borrowed a lot of money from a gold loan to buy large quantities of guns and gunpowder.

Interest is 8% per annum.

(My butt was touched by a gold loan. angry)

IV: Ships

Complete handover of the Holland and Mamiya (small exploration vessels).

Back to port with loads of merchandise.

As for the construction of the new shipbuilding, business negotiations are suspended because the construction costs have been used to purchase guns.

"That's what's gonna happen..."

And I was alone.

If the Crusaders had been called off, I would have never been over it, so I was disappointed.

The arm means it was shaken up.

Once you've swung it up, there's nothing else to put it down is war.

Bad luck lately, and here's what's gonna happen.

Do the paper to Kien and read the enclosed annex.

I knew you were right to leave the fitting to the designer.

You're gonna make a lot of money.

Well, it's no longer a situation where you can say what the money is...

"Apparently, you'll be here by the end of the year"

Having finished reading, Kien handed the paper to Lyao.

"Right."

"Of course, the Rube family fights. We have 12,000 soldiers."

"The Howe army is sixteen thousand. 10,000 for the Second Army and 7,000 for the First Army. Altogether, 46,000. But the Second Army is like scum. You'd better see it in about a third."

"What is the Second Army doing now?"

"I say to the general soldier that I will push him for the crime of civil unrest and give him an amnesty after a year of military service. Senior soldiers of the House of Howe are in the process of being treated to death by placing them in the barracks of the House of Howe and the King. Including the First Army, we eliminated all the women who were officers just because of their position."

"Months before the Crusaders arrive, train and be..."

Well, that's the problem.

"They weren't the ones who used to be soldiers to fight in the war. They want to do the witch's men, have fun, be prestigious and make money. For now, I'll drive you out to war, but, well, training will only work about half the normal. Then you should reduce it by five thousand five hundred and see it as a force of about five hundred by flying 40,000."

"Was the last time the total number of enemies...... about 80,000? Without the help of Boff and Noza, we won't be fighting."

"Fortunately, there's still about two to three months of respite. Think in common sense, even in a big hurry. That's about it. To root for the nations, prepare the barracks. We're going to start it all."

"Hmmm...... you are"

Kien seemed to agree.

"First, in the meantime, we'll crush Boff and Noza"

I did paper to Kien.

Contract

The Seven Witches make a contract to Representative Olon Boff as the head of the Bov family, as follows:

1: When something goes wrong with the Wang capital, the Bov family must not advance troops to the Royal Heavenly Realm.

2: The Bov family shall not allow the territorial passage of the Rube family and shall obstruct its progress.

3: To obstruct the progression of the Rube family when they try to use the ocean to go south.

The Seven Witches, if the above three paragraphs are observed. undertakes the treatment described in the following Articles:

1: Granting of the Klu equal rights to a maximum of two thousand members of the Bov family.

2: Award of the Duke of the Head of the Bov family.

3: After the conquest by the Crusaders, the appeasement of the Bov family's enclosure.

4: Possession of the right to armed self-defence.

Above

Take the above and make it a covenant between the Bov family and the Seven Witches.

O'Lone Boff, representative of the Boff family.

"Ya..."

Kien's eyes were burning with anger.

I think I'm angrier than I was when I found out about the witch's betrayal.

Rube and Boff are neighbors.

"As you can see, those guys are garbage. Summon the chief to the royal castle and kill him."

"Kill him, what will the army do?"

"In a couple of months, we'll manage to absorb it. Everything's gonna be in a hurry."

"Hmm... but..."

Kien doesn't seem to be on board.

"An army of generals who make promises like this and give up before they fight is untrustworthy. Put it in the stronghold, I don't know if it moves, if it moves, if it moves, how stupid it is to fight while asking."

They were passive in the last war, too, and hardly fought.

Not very much, but I don't think I can count on it.

If we win, we'll talk about it, but once we let them fight, now it's not about judgment, it's also about grace awards.

If it doesn't help anyway, you'd better kill it now.

"But it will be a battle."

"Spread the billa in large quantities. I'll see you when I get Olon Boff into the king's capital. Afterwards, it is sandwiched from the north and south at the Howe and Rube houses. Not so much resistance."

"Mmmm..."

"It's just that the problem is with the Nozas. Borafra Noza is somewhat of a mind-breaking man. There is similar paper, but this is in the form of a memorial. A body of unilateral promises from the witch side, without the signature or seal of Borafra Noza"

I guess he knew the danger of giving such a two-way contract to a witch.

It could later be used as a tool for threats.

If it is in the form of a memorial, it can be forged 100% on the witch side.

All you have to do is burn down the memoirs you have and say, "I'm just caught up in a witch conspiracy".

"I know that one well. He's a worrying man. We don't have the qualities to unite the army."

"Olorn Boff is likely to show up with a scarecrow in response to a summons, but Borafura is likely to come."

"Mm-hmm. That's a smart little guy. He won't come."

Again, Kien seemed to have that opinion too.

"Well, there's a lot to do... Either way, it's been since I killed Olon Boff. It would be easier to bend after everything but yourself has turned to the enemy."

The problem is how to fight the Crusaders after that, right?

Well, whether Kien will be on board or not.

"Crusaders after that, but I want to win for sure. Whether there are 100,000 enemies or not, I want to fight a battle that can be won ten out of ten. Now, if you lose, it's over."

"Mmm?... well, it would be best if I could do that"

Kien said in surprise.

"To that end, the showdown is thinking north of the king's capital. I want the Rube family not to fight the Crusaders, but to let them pass the army while it's still warm"

"- What?

Kien looks awkward.

"If you're a citizen, you can evacuate them. I have three months. Wouldn't be so hard."

"But the village is burned. You want me to let go of Mittal?"

"Crusaders and shattering cities like Mittal break bones. When you get back, you can fix it. We're going to pay for that."

"That's why I'm going."

Lyao pinched his mouth.

"Mittal is a city that our Rube family has protected and inherited from generation to generation. Do you want me to burn it?"

"Then you should be on your own"

I said.

"The Howe family let me pull my hand. Fight on your own."

"What?

"Become...!

I am surprised that all parents and children are here.

"With the current power, it's hard to win near the northern border. I'm not taking that bet."

"What are you talking about like a child? We must fight in unison..."

I gave Kien a good idea that she didn't have any benefits.

"Lord Kien. If I may ask, how many legions do we really rely on in our power?

Howe Army, Rube Army. The Kingsguard's First Army is in a state where one falls due to the chaos of the chain of command, but I'll let you in with an omelet.

A total of 30,000 and 4,000.

Klu people, well, at least 60,000 or so will come. That was 80,000 last time.

Thirty thousand and four thousand, compared to the army of the Klu, willing, men are all powerful men?

That's not true. In the last battle, very normally infantry pushed each other to lose.

Lord Kien. I hear that the same is true of the army of the Rube family, which was pushed when it comes to infantry.

There are tons of firearms deployed over there, and this one just has a spear or fights with a sword. That's up to the other side to win.

Second Army, 10,000 and a thousand men. Boff's army, about nine thousand men. There are about 8,000 Nozas in the army. I can't help it because the land is bad over there.

A total of 20,000 and 8,000. They are already significantly less qualified than the army of the Klu.

60,000 and 2,000 combined.

I ask the other way, Lord Kien. In a battle betraying the survival of the nation, the extinction of the species, you challenge the showdown without any measures in this situation?

Speaking of ideas for using your head to execute, how much can you let the whole army wander through the rice and even drink it before the battle?

It's not over there, there's your prized cakedri and eagle, so you should be able to win. Is that it?

If you're going to fight with that, I won't say anything more. You can do it yourself. "

There are things that can't be done with all the human resources.

This is reality.

As much as we get on that bet, we'd better fight our own retreat and miss a little more to the New World.

"So you can win if you go down to the king's capital?"

"I can win. I'm working on it."

Well, even if you didn't win, then maybe the Rube family's worn out, too.

You'd better let me believe it.

"Specifically, what?

"I would already be running it. Saving the Second Army to take down the King's capital is part of it. Besides, didn't you wonder if these documents were all there without loss? I took it before I killed the witch."

If I had defeated the Second Army without thought, what would have happened?

The siege was wiped out, thousands of soldiers were killed, and laughing high in front of the pile of corpses couldn't have benefited anything.

If I had burned the witch without question, I wouldn't have gotten any evidence that I was intimate with the Bov and Noza families either.

It was too late to say I found Charleville's stash room a month later.

Given that, it's really scary.

"Lord Yuri, if we let go of Mittal"

"Father, are you serious?

Lyao rocked Kien's knee.

As for Mittal, that sounds pretty thoughtful.

But nothing. I just need to fix what's broken.

Like human life, it's not irrevocable.

"Lyao, keep your mouth shut... Lord Yuri, if we're going to let Mittal go, we need a good reason. Why not if it is not the king's capital? If you don't explain that, I'm not convinced."

Well, I guess so.

"Okay, let's talk. If you ask, you'll be convinced."
