Episode 111
##111
Lian’s presence was strong.
In addition to being blessed by the two gods, the majesty of all of his subordinates was great.
Unlike when watching from a distance, you can feel the suffocating pressure from the great warriors on your skin.
Sharak Sharak.
Among them, there was the only person who was not an Awakener, and that was the former Countess, who showed off her presence right behind Lian.
‘That foxy b*tch!!’
Masju, the former concubine of the count and the mother of the sixth son, grinded her teeth.
It was disgusting to be acting like a winner when the subject of the succession war was waged together.
‘what?’
Keneina met her eyes.
In the past, sparks would have exploded in the air, but now I had no thoughts.
‘I guess I didn’t understand the situation. Tsk tsk.’
The moment I tried to look away like that.
“Oh oh. My little brother?”
Lian stopped and stood in front of her youngest sister.
“How cute!!”
Then he stroked his hair.
“Huh?!”
The youngest, startled, hurriedly hid behind his mother.
He was still young and had little interaction with Lian, so he wasn’t used to it.
“Natalia. It is said that my brother is cute. You can’t use it if you avoid it like that.”
Masjuu’s face, which had been very nervous, was in full bloom.
I was worried a lot, but if Lian cared for my little sister, I was relieved.
No matter how influential his aides are, they won’t be able to break Rian’s will easily.
“okay! Natalia!!! ah. Sorry.”
Lian’s accent suddenly got stronger, and Natalia didn’t know how to come out of her mother’s back.
‘I should get along well with this guy… sh*t.’
He is the only useful guy in Count Leon’s bloodline.
Occasionally, she rose to the rank of Countess, but she has considerable management skills.
There’s not much else to see, but he has good management skills and character.
Being good means being able to empathize.
‘I’d be reassured if this guy took over the county of Leon.’
Rian’s tech tree is bound to become a warlord.
The capital will change all the time, but the actual capital will be the county of Leon, and a trustworthy person must be put in charge.
Of course, she’s just a little girl now.
“The kid is very shy. I’m sorry. Your Excellency Count.”
“It is okay to omit the title of His Excellency. second mother.”
The other wives are dead, leaving only Keneina and Masjuu.
Although their bloodlines are not mixed, both are mothers to Rian.
“From now on, I will serve you as my aunt and uncle.”
Both were below Rian’s mother in rank, but they didn’t really care.
That’s because I don’t remember being persecuted.
“thank you. count.”
“You have to get along well with your family. I am especially looking forward to Natalia.”
Lian smiled at Natalia, who was peeking out from behind her aunt.
How can I say I’m lucky?
“What would my brother like?”
Ryan squatted down and asked Natalia.
“A child. My brother is asking, so I have to answer.”
“… money!!”
As expected, his managerial potential was A-level, and he revealed his money from an early age.
“Why does Natalia like money?”
“Papa. They said everyone can be happy with money.”
Probably all of them include the territories under their influence.
“It is extraordinary. Then you should give me a gift. Uncle Sebas.”
Let Ryan put his hand behind him.
“yes. dismissal!”
Sebas immediately took out a money bag from his pocket and placed the coins on Lian’s hand.
However, his expression didn’t look that good, because Lian has been spending a lot of money lately.
“ruler. It is a present from my brother.”
“Junjja. Are you giving it to me?”
“Okay!”
What Lian gave was 10 gold coins worth 120 pennies.
The price of the cheapest auto hose for daily life was about 1,200 pennies, so it was a great gift for a snoring dog to receive.
“hurry. I should say thank you to my brother.”
“Thank you. Oh bong~!”
“Oops. be cute.”
“Hing~”
When he slightly pinched the cheek of his younger brother who came forward to receive the money, he was surprised and quickly hid behind his mother.
“Count. The VIPs are waiting for you.”
At that time, my aunt (Kenneina) tipped off a little.
Come to think of it, I neglected the VIPs too much.
To be honest, though, they didn’t mean much to Lian.
“ah. Excuse me for this.”
In this war, they needed their help.
They are the ones who have influence in this land.
“It’s been a while since I met my younger brother, so I’ve been losing my mind.”
Lian lowered his head slightly, and the distinguished guests hurriedly lowered their heads as well.
There was no one who would dare to hold his head stiffly against the present Lian.
Even if it was because he was afraid of the vice-captain who was guarding Lian’s back.
Bubbly.
Lian, who lowered her head lightly, slid her short legs into the center of the hall.
Then, the subordinates also follow Lian.
It doesn’t look like a party.
There was a reason for behaving like this in this place.
Sreung!
Lian immediately pulled out the holy sword and slammed it into the table.
Pak!!
Although the rapier had a thin blade, it was quite heavy.
Although he has the body of a child, he is still a mana user.
Teeing~!
When I let go of the handle, the sword rang.
“Today is a meaningful occasion for me to officially inherit the Countess, but I can’t just enjoy it happily. I’m sure everyone knows why.”
Even the guests knew it.
Lian declared war and issued a general mobilization order.
The Battle of Yeongji was about to take place, but I couldn’t help but laugh, eat, drink, and enjoy it hahahaha.
“… … .”
The banquet hall fell silent.
Everyone was cautious even breathing.
That’s why Lian created an atmosphere of fear, and the men in the back exhaled their lives.
‘sh*t. They say the boss, a child, is the scariest, but it’s true.’
Everyone had these thoughts running through their heads.
No matter how young a child is, the authority they have is not easy.
“Taking advantage of the power vacuum in the County of Leon, Count Rudeac, who is like a wild beast, has seduced my innocent and kind second brother into a succession war. I will never forgive this.”
“Cough Cough!!”
Then someone coughed.
“Who made the coughing sound!!”
The vice-captain rolled his eyes and shouted.
Before entering the banquet hall, I was ordered by Lian to create an atmosphere of fear.
“hehehe! That’s not it! I support you, Your Excellency!”
The low-ranking nobleman, who had been coughing, hurriedly shouted in surprise.
“I… I support you too!”
“It is a clear interference in internal affairs to even provide military support even though there is a legitimate successor.”
“you’re right. If we go on like this, the prestige of our county of Leon… … .”
Starting with that, everyone helped one by one.
To protect the one who coughed.
Not because she’s particularly pretty, but because if she sets a bad precedent here, she’ll be in danger later.
“I’m glad that everyone thinks the same as me. I believe that you will cooperate as much as possible from tomorrow. now. So, let’s not be rigid, let’s just drink and eat today.”
The way he spoke was like that of an old man.
Lian tried to copy the way his boss in his previous life (?) used to speak.
“Who hasn’t filled their glasses yet?!”
Everyone was busy refilling their glasses in a hurry with their characteristic arrogant and coercive tone.
“ruler! George!”
“article… George!”
When Lian raised her glass of milk and shouted, everyone raised their glasses.
“Kyaa~~ This is delicious.”
Lian drank today’s fresh milk, and everyone emptied their glasses accordingly.
“Hria Min!”
“yes. Count!”
“Sound the wind music~!”
“All right! Nine Devils! Let’s sortie!”
When Lian shouted, she exchanged glances with some of the sailors before turning on the instrument.
“Kkeaaa!”
Hriamin shouted vigorously right into the microphone magic tool.
I’m going to go to the middle of the day ~!!
At the same time, the improved magic instruments resonated with harsh sounds.
“Huh!! what.”
“It’s a surprise.”
“This… what… … .”
The guests were amazed.
“Everybody scream!”
Although Hria Min shouted.
“… … !?”
The dignitaries put on puzzled faces.
Then Lian stepped out.
“What are you guys doing!! Shout out~~!”
“Waaa~~”
The guests couldn’t help but scream awkwardly.
for a while too.
From nob le mt l. com
Jing ji ijing~jajajajang~!!
At some point, the VIPs began to assimilate to the harsh sound of musical instruments and Lian’s coercive pressure.
Ryan walked around and poured me a drink.
The honored guests did not dare to throw it away and drank it up.
“Once again, let’s hear the voice~~!!”
“Wow wow wow!!”
As soon as the alcohol started, everyone became distracted by the crazy music.
Gradually, the party hall became a mess.
* * *
The next day, the palace was occupied by zombies.
Since everyone drank until late at night, most of them stretched out and slept at the party.
It was a truly crazy party.
“Please refine your clothes and attend the evening meeting!!”
Employees went around and took care of the VIPs one by one.
Those who were forced to stand up had to clear their stomachs with wide eyes or run to the back room.
Half a day passed quickly while I spent so hecticly.
bang bang!!
Ryan knocked on the table.
“Everyone, wake up!”
The place that had been used as a party hall until yesterday was cleaned up and turned into a conference hall.
Because the palace was so small, there was not enough space to accommodate a large number of people at once.
“crime… sorry. dismissal!”
There were still many people who complained of suffering from a hangover.
I’m barely holding on with my mental strength.
“There is nothing to be sorry for, Prime Minister. So, are the documents complete?”
“You gave me more time so I had time to refine it.”
“Distribute it.”
The papers were immediately handed out to the distinguished guests.
Those who saw it were blown away from their hangovers at once.
“this… this… Would that be possible?!”
What is written in the document is a scenario that ends the war in 15 days.
Correspondingly, supplies and conscripts’ march routes were recorded.
“Anyway, once you get over the Mano Fortress, it’s over. The palace of Count Rudeac is in an empty field.”
The capital of the county of Rudeac lies in the center of the basin.
The entrance to the basin is the Mano Fortress.
Of course, there were also side roads around the fort, but they were narrow and vulnerable to ambushes.
“There is no way to capture the fort. dismissal!”
“Why not? I have a floating line. Mapo alone is 30 gates.”
Ryan confidently exclaimed.
“Agate Fortress also has abrasion. No matter how much the floating ship is a moving fortress… It is difficult to attack the fort’s hemp… … .”
“you’re right. even if it is captured. The damage will be severe.”
In the end, you have to push your troops.
There will be massive damage in the process. Even if you win the war, you will suffer from the aftereffects.
As long as the general mobilization order is issued, ordinary people will be mobilized on a large scale.
The population, especially the number of Jeongnam, is the strength of the territory.
“What did everyone say to me yesterday?!”
“… … .”
Lian yelled.
“I am disappointed.”
“That’s not it… … .”
“Whoever opposes, get out. You will never find anything in your life!”
When Lian spoke strongly, everyone bowed their heads.
‘okay. f*ck off to your heart’s content If your strength weakens, we’re not bad either.’
There were also those who had such thoughts.
If the lord’s power is too strong, it’s hard for the lower nobles to straighten their backs.
“ruler. then. I know everyone is cooperating. Please move according to the plan here.”
Lian kicked off the seat with a scornful look on his face and left the makeshift meeting room.
“why… How can you end the war in 15 days after going out?”
“If you push too hard, the damage will increase…” … .”
“Is it because I’m still young that I don’t know… … .”
“For that reason, the assistants were not easy… … .”
Capturing the fortress was not an easy task, even for a floating ship.
Moreover, if it is a place where the advantage of the topography is well utilized.
‘I have to tell Count Rudeac about this quickly. whooping!’
Everyone was very worried, but some of them hid their smiles.
As it is a neighboring territory, there are those who have received money in exchange for information.
* * *
This news, of course, also reached the ears of Count Rudeac.
“Count!! It is urgent.”
“why. Did you try to break in already? Just plunder the lands on the outskirts and tell them to go back.”
If you only protect the capital and buy time anyway, there is nothing your opponent can do.
Even if it is occupied, seize the opportunity and recapture it.
“That’s not it. Count Leon gathered key figures and held a general meeting.”
“hmm? okay? So what do you say?”
“We will break through our mano fortress in 15 days… All operations were aligned there.”
“Ha ha ha ha!!! You’re crazy. it’s crazy. The young man ascended the county throne, and there seems to be nothing to see. very good. It would be better to stop this from happening and eat the Countess of Leon.”
The face of Count Rudeac, who had been haggard, widened.
Mano Fortress has been a notorious fortress for generations.
that inflicts massive damage on the attacker.
