Chapter 107
##107
I almost forgot, but I managed to remember.
If you are lucky enough to play as a starting player in the County of Leon, you can hire talented people from the field.
If you press the search button according to the period, you can find it with a 100% probability. Recruitment is also not difficult.
The reason is because he is the butler’s younger brother.
S-rank tactical instructor.
It’s a little disappointing that it’s not a strategy, but there is no better character to train non-commander soldiers.
If you teach a soldier a strategy, he will not understand it, and strategy is not an easy thing to learn just because someone teaches it.
This is because the preferred strategy is different depending on the personality or inclination.
“Have you seen my brother? He ran away from home before he was even born, and now he’s back… … .”
“I have heard of it.”
“Phew~ I came back half-dead. It’s stuck in the corner of the house and won’t come out.”
He left, saying that he would come back successfully, and he returned with his right leg and left arm somewhere, let alone a golden return.
It was fortunate that he returned to his hometown with a prosthetic leg and a prosthetic hand.
‘I’ll leave again with that body.’
After a while, someone will come.
He was a comrade in the old war, but it turned out that he was a nobleman. I guess this is the setting.
Knowing his talent, he sent someone to scout him.
“Didn’t someone come?”
“yes. Who’s going to find a guy with such flaws? Even if you ask where the hell did you do it. after… … .”
Since he’s a younger brother with a big age difference from the butler, it’s like a parent’s heart.
Between his wrinkles, the depth seemed to be full.
“Oh! When was my seal takeover ceremony scheduled?”
“Tomorrow. Listening to the Prime Minister’s words, I think we need to do it as soon as possible.”
An emblem of the lord kept in the church.
Only when you receive it can you be fully recognized as the owner of this land.
Of course, since war is imminent, it seems that he decided that it would be better to take over the seal quickly.
“Your brother will also attend, right? If you’re the butler’s younger brother, you’re the main character.”
“I don’t even come out of my room, let alone the house.”
“Still, it is an act of deceit as a member of the ‘Jae’ family, who has been in charge of the count’s butler for generations, to not attend the ceremony for my seal.”
The Deacon serves a role similar to that of the Treasury Department.
Since he was the chief in charge of money, there were many cases in which a family passed it down from generation to generation.
“however… It’s the first time my family has served as the butler… … .”
The butler had a troubled expression on his face.
‘that… Did you?’
I was confused because I only played once in the County of Leon.
There is a way to appoint ‘Ashes of Sinkon’ on the strategy board, so all I have to do is look for Count Leon a few times.
“We have to keep going. ha ha ha.”
“that… Is that so? How could you rate our family so highly? Thank you.”
“So, invite your brother to attend. This is my order as a lord.”
As Rian emphasized, the head butler nodded.
* * *
Ashes of Sinkon.
He is depressed these days.
When I closed my eyes, the memory of that day was vivid.
“Huh! under… … .”
Every day I wake up with nightmares.
“sh*t.”
It was dark inside the room.
The sunlight filtering through the curtains indicated that it was daytime.
smart.
Then a knock was heard outside.
“Brother. Are you sleeping?”
“It just happened. older brother. sorry. I don’t want to see your face now.”
I didn’t want to show my older brother my sweaty, terrified face.
“Yes, I understand. More than that, the lord wants to see you. He told me to attend the seal acceptance ceremony.”
“Why did the lord ask to see an idiot like me?”
“I don’t even know that much.”
“All right. older brother.”
In my mind, I never wanted to attend.
I didn’t like being in front of people like this.
no. I was ashamed and embarrassed.
“thanks. I asked my chef to take extra care, so don’t skip meals.”
“nice… Know… It is. older brother.”
Sinkeon-ui barely held back tears.
He is such a caring older brother, but he has been looking for the battlefield without a single letter, as if he had been possessed by something.
-Thank you for coming back alive. little brother
I was worried about whether I should return to my hometown or not, but I had nowhere to go.
I was afraid that I would be cursed at, but as soon as my brother saw me, he cried and hugged me.
“then. I’ll go. rest.”
“Take a look. older brother.”
Shinkon-ui lowered his head.
I hated myself for this and felt resentful.
I came to regret belatedly thinking that I should have shown my face.
‘Rather than that, why did the lord… … .’
I had to attend even if it was to save face for my older brother who would eat rust in the count’s family.
I told you to pick yourself up and bring me.
‘Is this just a courtesy?’
Of course, the butler’s family members were eligible to attend.
‘Did you know that I was a wandering knight… … .’
It’s an absurd thought, but my heart beat weakly.
‘I heard that there was a war with the neighboring territory.’
I happened to overhear what the servants were saying.
‘When conscripts gather… There may not be enough junior commanders… … .’
My body is like this, but if given the opportunity, I wanted to go to the battlefield again.
I still vividly remember the day I lost my limbs after being hit by a rope, but I thought I couldn’t just run away for the rest of my life.
If the opportunity arises someday, I will go to the battlefield even if I do not participate in the war.
Otherwise, you will have to live with this trauma forever.
* * *
Ryan locked himself in his room and didn’t go out.
“young master!! Let me guide you through the castle! Yes~ Isn’t it frustrating to stay in the room all the time? You came home after a long time!!”
“hmm. It’s only been two hours!”
To be honest, even Lian did not know the structure of this castle.
“Hey~!”
“If you feel stuffy, go watch it alone. Don’t just make an accident.”
“Is that really okay?”
“Since you are my escort knight and exclusive maid, no one can say anything.”
He had already told the butler and the chancellor in advance.
Of course, I also cautioned other employees and guards.
You never know what kind of accident Charlotte will have.
“Thank you!!! hehehehe.”
Charlotte smiled brightly and ran out.
“kid. Can I send that alone?”
“I will take care of myself.”
The vice-captain looked at him with very worried eyes.
“Rather than that, if we go to war here… Airy Island is… … .”
“Do not worry. You won’t be stranded for a long time.”
It might have taken quite a bit of time if we had only fought with the power of the Going Misha.
However, the power of Count Leon was absorbed without damage.
The condition of the mercenaries who participated in the succession war was also good.
“Don’t underestimate the potential of 101st place.”
“Where the hell are 100 people above you?”
Ryan shrugged.
“If I had, I would have applied it all. That’s too bad.”
Ryan thought of his skills as 101-100th, not 101st.
In fact, there are many contents that you can enjoy without paying (if you do not pay, the level of difficulty rises to atrocious), so there are some that I did not pay for… … .
Quitting the company was also the reason why billing was not easy.
‘If you stick with no charge… … .’
Actually, if everyone is free… Ryan’s rank may have been lower.
The reason was that they couldn’t learn how to become stronger only through no billing because they didn’t pay and couldn’t endure it.
“I get dizzy thinking there are 100 more guys like you.”
“There are many geniuses in this world.”
Honestly, I don’t know what would happen if I fought head-on with a force similar to that of an SR-class strategist or commander.
Charlotte alone might be stronger than Lian the moment her training ends.
‘Before sticking with them, I have to make sure.’
It was wrong to think that I would fight fair against those monsters.
the world isn’t fair War has many variables.
“That is a big deal. There are 100 geniuses above you.”
The vice-captain thought that Lian’s words were nonsense, but he just moderated them.
There are 100 more crazy people like Ryan. Did you do it or not?
“Still, there are immutable truths that even geniuses cannot do.”
“hmm?! Is there such a thing?”
“Quantity and training.”
At that, the vice-captain gave an absurd smile.
“Even a genius couldn’t do that.”
He responded with a bright smile to the vice-captain’s absurd laugh.
* * *
Charlotte wandered around the palace.
Perhaps because the country is different, the style is subtly different from that of Lian’s maternal family, Artrone.
It was fun enough just to look at these little things.
“hmm?!”
Then he saw that the mercenaries who had followed Lian were staying in the clearing beyond the palace.
There were no private houses around the palace for defense purposes, so there was an empty lot.
“Hello! uncles.”
Charlotte visited the mercenaries out of curiosity.
They were training in their own formation.
“you… His Excellency’s maid… is it right?”
“yes! She is a maid.”
I didn’t think she was a knight because she was wearing a maid’s uniform.
A competent maid who knows how to ride an auto horse?
“Excuse me. You must be a nobleman.”
Unlike maids, maids come from aristocratic families.
That said, driving an Auto Horse that riders rode was not an ordinary hireling.
“Are you training right now?”
“It is in preparation for the upcoming war. Unlike the succession war, the territory war will be bigger in scale.”
The bigger the war, the more important training was.
“me too! Put me in too!”
“hmm… … .”
The mercenary captain glanced at his adjutant.
-Aren’t you the closest aide to His Excellency the Count? What suits you is… … .
-What if I get hurt?
-It’s a woman who even rides an Auto Horse, but you won’t get hurt at all.
-okay.
After discussing for a while, the two decided to insert Charlotte.
There is nothing wrong with being seen well by the count’s aides.
* * *
Lian began to worry about Charlotte, who did not return even after the sun had set.
“Oh, where else did you go and have an accident?”
“So what if I send that wild thing alone?”
The vice-captain was also concerned.
It wasn’t that he was worried about Charlotte, but that he was worried about the person who would be harmed by Charlotte’s accident.
“Should I release someone to find him…?” … .”
at that time.
Smart~!
They said even ghosts would come if I spoke, and Charlotte just returned.
The problem was that the clothes were dusty… on the face… … .
“Who did you fight with?”
I had bruises. I can see nosebleeds… … .
“If he gets hurt this much… You didn’t kill me?!”
the vice-captain asked urgently.
Killing people is no big deal, but this is where Lian rules.
If your aide commits murder from day one, your image may suffer a serious blow.
“Huh~ I’m upset.”
Let Charlotte cry.
“Whew~”
Lian and the vice-captain breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
Apparently Charlotte was hurt.
“Rather than that, if you were to lose, the opponent would have been quite capable. Is there anyone in this estate who can deal with Charlotte… … .”
Compared to other territories, only the number of knights was high, but there were no strong ones.
The deputy knight commander, who was the only mid-ranking captain, had his ship pierced by the vice-captain.
“A mercenary.”
At her words, Lian tilted her head.
Mercenaries will no longer be Charlotte’s opponents.
Could it be that there are talents in the field that you don’t know about?
It’s good enough to beat Charlotte… … .
“Tell me in detail.”
“that is… Is there any way to break through the Tercio formation?”
“What?!”
“no way… You said you fought alone against Jin-hyung?”
The vice-captain also made an expression of amazement.
Even he himself can’t pierce an opponent who has formed a formation from the front.
Moreover, the opponent is a mercenary.
Mercenaries were more serious about war than regular conscripts.
They wear necklaces with the same spell.
Each one may be weak, but when many necklaces are gathered together, they exert great power.
Even if you are a great fighter, you cannot break through if you do not find a gap.
“Ouch!! Such ignorance!”
The vice-captain cuts Charlotte’s head! and squeezed
“Ah~ There are things the vice-captain uncle didn’t teach you!”
“hmm… You don’t need to know how to break through a formation to piracy.”
For reference, formation techniques do not work in naval battles.
Naturally, it was close to impossible to activate the spells at the same intervals on a boat moving in the waves.
It is even more useless on earth.
Why do you fight when the regular army is in formation? have to run away
“Huh~ then. Jin hyung can’t pierce it?!”
“that… It depends. As for how… … .”
When Ryan tried to teach me, I was speechless.
Come to think of it, don’t you know yourself well?
‘I vaguely thought I could do it… It wasn’t.’
The game character was not himself.
“Ask someone else tomorrow. I am an expert on that.”
