57 – I won’t take it away from anyone!
“ah… no. You are leaving, what are we to do when the Great Spirit leaves us?”
“Yes. You must continue to lead us in the future!”
“Great soul Cromwell! It is to rise to the position of the new warchief!”
“Sigh… ”
The chieftains who prevent me from going back over the Epal Mountains again.
Looking at their reaction, which I expected to some extent, I said in a calm voice.
“I know what you mean. However, as I said before, my role here is to drive out the corrupted warchief Tayyandra. From now on, the Morks should be led by the chieftains in this position.”
“But!”
“You are the ones who have governed and protected this place for generations. In this war, all I did was simply support you guys. This victory is yours.”
“Um… ”
“You say that… I don’t know what to do.”
The chiefs and the chiefs who seem to be more at ease with my words.
Then, with even more seriousness, I spoke to them.
“I still have a lot of work to do. More than anything… Now that there is still a danger to the empire, it is more important than anything else to clear this up for the future of the Morks.”
“… I see what you mean.”
“If you say so… I can’t help it.”
Although it lost its power and retreated, the Empire still cannot be ignored.
In particular, in the case of the north, the force was broken, but the momentum of the southern imperial army was very strong.
Although they would not be able to cross the Epal Mountains recklessly because they were facing a confrontation with the rebels right now, but now that they had effectively declared a break with the Empire, even the Morks could not help but be vigilant.

My refusal, coupled with talk of such a real danger, forced the Mok chiefs and chieftains to finally give up on making me their warchief.
And.
seeing them like this.
I couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh of relief.
‘I’m glad… With this, I don’t have to embrace a bomb that has no ability and only high responsibility.’
Of course, I knew nothing about the governing part.
In terms of military power, it was somehow possible through games and knowledge acquired through hobbies, but there was little knowledge or interest in politics or governing something.
As a bonus, he knows very little about the small characteristics he needs to know in order to rule the Morks.
to me like that,
It was something I couldn’t and didn’t want to do to rule this place, which had a fairly large population and was so vast that I couldn’t even look around.
‘I’d rather cut a knife on the battlefield… I just hate annoying things.’

A wide plain covered with darkness.
Looking at the twinkling stars in the sky, she let out a deep sigh.
“… Whoa.”
Everything was in a good situation.
The warchief is dead,
Among the remaining chiefs and chiefs, the dark horse tribe, which made the biggest contribution in this matter, had the highest say.
Perhaps his older brother Morgant, the chief of the Dark Horse tribe, would rise to the position of the great chief.
But,
Despite this situation, at this moment she was feeling like a heavy stone had been placed deep in her heart.
‘Why… Why am I like this… ‘
A feeling that is so frustrating that I have never felt it since I was born.
And…
As for what the reason was, she actually knew vaguely.
‘It was then… great soul… From the time Cromwell-sama announced that he would leave this place.’
the moment you hear it.
A woman named Seri Tiekuna was seized with a feeling as if she was left alone in the world, which continues to this moment.
The exact reason was unknown.
But,
This unbearable loneliness…
It was touching her heart so painfully for her now.
‘This has never happened… Why are you doing this? Because of Mr. Cromwell, I can’t get my mind right. He’s just going to finish everything he has to do here… By the way… But why?’
Feeling stuffy without being able to shake off such a bland feeling,
Tiekuna was the kind of person who just wandered the plains in a nervous mood.
at that time.
“Here you are.”
“!… Brother?”
Tiekuna turns her head at the sudden voice.
Seeing her like that, Morgant spoke to him in a calm voice.
“You don’t look good. Also he… Is it because Cromwell-sama is leaving?”
“That… It’s not like that. I just…”
“I know your heart.”
“… Yes?”
“Aren’t you yearning for it? Him, the great soul.”
“!!… Five… Brother… ”
Although Tiekuna was embarrassed by her brother’s words that seemed to penetrate her heart,
At the same time, it could not be easily denied.
Not from anyone else, but from someone who has seen her all her life.
and at the same time
The moment she heard that story, deep down in her heart, she also began to feel that the obscure facts became clearer.
‘I like… there is? no… I adore… I have… ? I… Tiekuna… that person… ‘
That’s how Tiekuna came to recognize what this stuffiness means.
And,
Looking at my brother like that.

Morgant spoke in a calm voice.
“Do as you please.”
“come… Bunny.”
“It’s fine if you stay here. You may follow him. Don’t worry about anything else, just live the life you want.”
“… ”
An older brother who, as a deputy chief, may soon become the great chief.
As a younger sister, it was natural for her to help him, who would be busy in many ways in the future,
Nevertheless, her brother was speaking out of consideration for his younger brother at this moment.
To live as she pleases, without having to sacrifice to help herself.
And,
As I listened to my older brother…
She is…
Her name is Seri Tiekuna…
I started to think about what choice I should make.
And after a while…
After what seemed like an extremely long period of thought, she finally made up her mind.
“… Brother… Tiekuna… ”

Cromwell’s group returns to Saratoga after crossing the Epal Mountains.
But at this moment.
General Franklin, who had been in a high mood until just yesterday, was filled with deep frustration.
‘I never thought I would wear a hump like this… ‘
A newly added group this time.
He was now sitting next to the man whom General Franklin truly loved, talking in a calm voice.
“… Are you really okay? No matter what, I am leaving my hometown… ”
“As a Mok, it is natural to return the favor. You saved our tribe. And he saved my life twice. I should give my life for you.”
“Sigh… ”
A Mok tribe woman who was allowed to accompany her to the end in the name of repaying the favor.
Seri Tiekuna.
However, even after seeing her like this, General Franklin was already clearly grasping what the inside story was, as a woman’s intuition.
‘Annoying guy stuck… The feeling is that a bitch like a water buffalo, who is just dull, doesn’t have a cat.’
A year named tax collector who succeeded in making a seat next to Cromwell by pushing for a cause he could not refuse.
She knew that this was not simply to repay the favor, but a tactic to nurture a crush on him.
‘But there’s no way. It’s no use even if your bitch cheats. Cromwell is mine. only my own… never. I won’t be taken away by the likes of you!’
It was common to have multiple wives on this floor, but Franklin had no intention of being so open-minded in the first place.
From the time she first knew the man, she had always had feelings of longing for her, and finally she was on the verge of getting the man.
In a situation like this, that man can’t be taken away by some savage bitch who doesn’t even know where he came from.
Like that, the only person who can stand next to him is himself and with the thought that he must make it that way.
Franklin was determined to move forward with the work he had originally planned.

Imperial stronghold located in the south,
York Tower.
In the office located in the center of the place,
She is…
A female general with blonde hair and golden eyes.
He spoke in a quiet voice without taking his eyes off the scene outside the window covered in darkness.
“yes? That man is a rebel?…”
“Yes, sir. Rumor has it that the Battle of Seratoga, which took place in the north this time, is what he did.”
“… yes… You mean that?”
She speaks in a cold voice.
Then, after a moment of silence, she spoke in a quiet voice.
“I get it. stop going back.”
“Yes, General.”
The adjutant goes out without saying a word as per the order.
Right after I was left alone like that.
She thought quietly with a cool smile on her lips.
‘but… It was kind of strange. The dying rebels won such an incredible victory… There’s no way the soldiers commanded by that Gates over there could achieve such a miraculous victory.’
With that thought in mind, he slowly turned his head as it was.
She immediately sat down at her desk and started doing what she had been thinking about all along.
‘That bastard, Neto, ruined everything, but I can’t let it end like this… Edward Cromwell’s brother… My brother belongs only to me, Nelson. It can’t be taken away by anyone!’
