Chapter 922 (1/2)

Chapter 922

“I look forward to it since I never left outside the village” (Philine)

“As we are right now in the o to overly wonderful places though” (Wendelin)

“That’s okayPhiline will follow master” (Philine)

“Hey, Wend…” (Erwin)

“Master, do your best”

“Currently I’htly upset at you” (Erwin)

Earlyround, we ain and return to the field encampment

Our nuirl called Philine, as pushed on roup

On the way back she was in high spirits while riding a horse together with Elise

As it see born, everything she’s see around us appears to be novel to her

Happily chatting with Elise, she enjoys the scenery on the hile looking delighted

“What about your parents, Philine?”

“I was told by the village chief that my mother died soon after my birth and my father is somewhere far away” (Philine)

“Is that so? It was difficult to be all by yourself, wasn’t it, Philine?”

The kind elder sister Elise was used to handling children because she looked after the orphans in the church

While talking with each other, she extracts information about Philine’s circumstances skilfully

And Erho had Philine pushed onto him by me, is in the middle of his deliberation how he should actually explain things to Haruka

In e out much because the situation is as it is

At ether, I think?

Though it’s probably physically i them without a doubt if they act too lovey-dovey

That guy is restraining the two by often repeating 『Right now is a time of war』, but his real er sister and Erw getting along well since he’s a severe siscon

“There won’t be any proble?” (Wendelin)

“I can’t refute as it’s definitely a sound argument…” (Erwin)

Making aher into his concubine; that’s Ern responsibility

I don’t have any tiet involved with that

“Wend, if you get carried away, you will pay for it sooner or later, you know?” (Erwin)

“I will bear it in mind as admonition by a loyal retainer” (Wendelin)

We return to the field encampment without any particular issues

When I went to Therese to report that we finished the nursing rounds safely, she blurted out so unthinkable just as she saw Philine

“What!? A new concubine?” (Therese)

“Surely notElise took her in” (Wendelin)

“All’s well as I don’t particularly s won’t change, Wendelin” (Therese)

“Please give up on that already” (Wendelin)

“That’s impossible” (Therese)

“Impossible, you say…?” (Wendelin)

Therese presses and I dodge

These days even the retainers of the Duke Philip household have reached a state of looking at us indifferently while hiding their criticism

As expected, they got used to it, didn’t they?

“I’m a woman that won’t lose heart” (Therese)

“Make sure to use that will-power of yours for ending the civil war and ruling the empire” (Wendelin)

“Wendelin, saying what the gentle on is a killjoyI want thou to entertain me more” (Therese)

“There’s nothing about that in the job description of a temporary staff officer” (Wendelin)

It’s not like Therese has the hobby of enjoying getting verbally abused byin a role si, since I possess a honorary peerage for convenience

Of course I turn that down since I don’t have such resourcefulness

Only people owning outrageous talent can beco after all

Otherwise they would i executed

However, that doesn’t e

“She’s a fairly cute girlWhat’s thy age?” (Therese)

“Yes, duchess Philip-samaI’m nine years old” (Philine)

“You are big…” (Therese)

Elise learned various things about her on the way, but Philine appears to actually still be nine years old

Accordingly, contrary to her appearance, her speech and conduct has childish aspects

“In addition, the colour of thy hair is characteristic, too…” (Therese)

Philine had silver hair which we had not once seen in the empire yet

“My deceased mother said that my father had silver hair” (Philine)

“Really? People with silver hair are rare in the eh” (Therese)

Due to Therese’s stateulfed in silence all of a sudden

If there are no silver-haired people in the empire, all that’s left is for thedom

“Even if they are froht? There’s no friendshi+p between the two countries except for the trading decided by the Friendshi+p Visit Group…”

As Luise says, that means her father is either a merchant, a noble or a e, but even in the kingdom there aren’t that many silver-haired people

A nobles they are few, tooAs far thethem is concerned, there was no one except that person

“It’s Margrave Breithilde-sama, isn’t it?”

“Luise, are there any possible candidates?”

“If it’s li chosen for the Friendshi+p Visit Group, it’s only Margrave Breithilde-sama” (Luise)

“Dear, the hue of this girl’s hair colour is exactly like that of Margrave Breithilde-sama…” (Elise)

Certainly, Philine’s silver hair looks alrave Breithilde

Without looking at Elise, even I couldn’t think of sorave Breithilde

“Philine, there’s so we have to talk about…”

“Please askmaster” (Philine)

“(I’m her master as well, huh…?)” (Wendelin)

Since on’t get anywhere even if we talk here, we decide to continue the chat afterBurkhart-san

“What is it? This sirl is?” (Burkhart)

Burkhart-san, who slipped out of the training of theout in cooperation with Katharina, showed a puzzled expression after seeing Philine

He’s probably thinking that it’s inappropriate for a young girl to stay at a savage field encampment

Katharina and Doushi+, who returned together, had curious looks

“Wendelin-san, is she your neife?” (Katharina)

“No, and, should you be the one saying that, Katharina…?” (Wendelin)

“Hahaha! Earl Bau)

“Doushi+, youris deep” (Wendelin)

Even though it would have been fine even if Katharina and Doushi+ didn’t coht

“So, who’s this little girl?” (Burkhart)

“That old man is scary” (Philine)

As Philine was apparently scared by Burkhart-san who brought his face close to her, she ends up hiding behind Elise

“I believe I’h…” (Burkhart)

“Doushi+-sama isn’t scaryThis old man is”

“Burkhart-dono, it’s wrong to scare a still young girl”

“How novel, to be liked by a child…” (Ar)

Burkhart-san revealed an unhappy expression as he was completely feared by Philine

As atreated as an old h

In reverse Doushi+ was happy because he wasn’t feared by a child for a change

“As the talk will be long, please have these” (Elise)

“WooowThis looks delicious”

Philine stared at the cake prepared by Elise with shi+ning eyes

It was soic is especially useful for such things

Philine ate the fruitcake that had a great a it plentifully

“First, this”

I show a copy of an old diary that Philine had with her to everyone

At first we thought that the village chief presented Philine to us in order to lower the amount of mouths to feed

However, once Elise heard the circumstances from Philine herself on the way back, somehow it actually looks that there is another reason why she was pushed onto us

『Then give us an explanation, you shi+tty village chief!』 is the feeling that wells up within iven that our social standing is overwhelher than his own

The most he could do until we return was to let us know that her circu to Philine

“dae chief”

“Well, don’t say thatEven if the village chief of a poor village visits the guest house, where the Friendshi+p Visit Group stays at, while bringing this girl along, it would be norht away” (Therese)

Even if he said 『I’d like to get an audience since I have an illegitidom with et treated as swindler

Therese cah I didn’t even ask her to, but she does a proper follow-up for a change

I understand that as well, but…

“This tiuess”

“So, he should have told us the circumstances!”

“There was also the possibility of us declining because of the troubles involved as we are also participating in the civil war, if he says it unskilfullyOr such he ht”

“He didn’t consider it dangerous to send such a sirl to the outside world which is a battlefield?”

“And yet he thought that Wend will be able to let her rave Breithilde-sama?”

“I suppose he gave h assessment”

“You know, that’s because you never lost in a war, WendSuch rumours naturally spread to commoners as well”

I started to feel a strange persuasiveness fro

“Wend, I wonder, don’t you have to read that diary?” (Ina)

“So I have to read it, huh? For the sake ofsure” (Wendelin)

I think there’s alrave Breithilde’s illegitied on by Ina as well, I decide that I have to read the diary once to check

The one copy is soed to Philine’s deceased mother

It appears that she got assigned as one of the people in charge of taking care of Margrave Breithilde at the time of the previous Friendshi+p Visit GroupThat’s when she had a love affair with him

O the small details of the diary about that part, she returned to that village right after Margrave Breithilde returned to the kingdonant

She gave birth to Philine as unmarried mother, but her physical condition declined when Philine was still very young and herjust like that

At the end of the diary ritten that she’s worried about her very young daughter that will be left behind

“It see care of the nobles of the Friendshi+p Visit Group”

I explain the contents of the diary in a simple manner to everyone

“Holy cow! Not only a traveller’s journal, but even itimate child…”

“You didn’t notice, Burkhart-san?”

“I guess that’s because I was all the tiether with just Doushi+ and Therese-sa to uard of duchess Philip-dono?』” (Burkhart)

“I think he said that because you would have been a nuisance for his tryst”

“That must be it…” (Burkhart)

Upon Luise pointing that out, Burkhart-san dropped his shoulders crestfallen

“So, do you have any evidence?”

“I do…”

Philine was e chief

Inside were the love letters frorave Breithilde addressed to Philine’sthat it’s his child if a child is born despite it having been an affair for around one week and a knife that was decorated with a wonderful ornarave Breithilde household’s family crest on it

Or rather, if he goes that far, I think that it would have been the best for hi

Maybe he was scared of his legal wife?

“There’s nothing I want to say in particular, but he’s the worst” (Katharina)

The fairly blunt act of Margrave Breithilde was criticized by Katharina who is in a position that she doesn’t have to hold back on nobles too ician herself

It seeree with her, too

In that rave Breithilde, who looks like an agreeable liberal arts youth, took a heavy hit

“Love letters, Margrave Breithilde is a liberal arts person even at such times, isn’t he…?”

When I tried checking the contents despite feeling guilty about it, after taking just a look, there are e lines such as 『The sun-like beautiful you』 and 『How should I convey this throbbing excitement in my chest to you?』 written in there

Seeing the contents, Doushi+ and Erw burst into laughter while rolling on the ground due to the overly ees

The person himself was probably serious, but seen by an outsider, it’s a public execution as it’s a kind of comedy

The difference between the scornful laughter of the fehter of the male camp was surreal

“Wend, you don’t write many letters, do you?” (Ina)

“That’s because I’h I have more opportunities to do so than Luise” (Wendelin)

“Since it’s difficult for me as well, I hate letters and such” (Luise)

I’

I don’t have a hobby of expressly writing unnecessary letters either

“So, this is?”

Next, another copy of a diary appeared, but the things written in there were even

“『Sent tovon BreithildePoems of Love』It’s completely off…?”

An erave Breithilde hie of the diary

It appears that traveller’s journals and si point, but he has absolutely no talent in writing love letters and poems

To rave Breithilde’s dark past

If I had written soot leaked out into society, I would certainly consider suicide

The quality of the poe to that extent

“Margrave Breithilde-sama is unexpectedly irresponsible, too”

“It’s not a conduct that I can praise overly much”

As it looks like even Elise, who doesn’t bad- soh position since she’s a corave Breithilde as father and man has hit rock bottom at this point in time

Believing that it would be futile even if he covered for Margrave Breithilde here, Burkhart-san stayed silent without saying anything

I guess the sole salvationthe female camp’s sympathy?

“I wonder if a normal woman would be happy to receive such a poem?”

“Umm… I have heard that love is blindTo the bitter end it’s just soh…” (Ina)

After looking at the Margrave Breithilde’s peculiar euistic expressions that ritten in the letters and poems, Ina states her impression in a whisper

I think that even Elise thinks that she wouldn’t be happy even if she received this poem

Ina gave quite the auous reply

“Margrave Breithilde-sama has zero talent as poet”

“He h” (Luise)

“Luise, you…”

It should definitely be a hit if it’s publicly shown at a noble salon, but that’s not because of hih but simply because that poem will be ridiculed

Getting apparently ridiculed, his life span as comedian will likely be short

But even before that, I’ to be treated as comedian

“So, you are saying that this girl is Margrave Breithilde’s illegitimate child?”

“I think all the evidence has been put togetherPhiline”

“Yes, master” (Philine)

Me and Erw seem to be currently Philine’s masters

Once I called out to her, she answered alongside a pure smile

A bit of fresh creairl that has inherited the blood of Margrave Breithilde, that made her all the more cute

“Philine, you have cream on you” (Elise)

“Thank you very much, Elise-sama” (Philine)

Getting the cream wiped away by Elise, Philine looks happy

Elise’s special characteristic that is idolized by Wilered by Philine, too

“Well, as the hair colour of your deceased mother?”

“It was light brown” (Philine)

“I seeThanks for telling usIf you want another serving of cake, do tell Elise” (Wendelin)

“Yes” (Philine)

Philine herself apparently doesn’t care at all about her own father as she see for the first time in her life

It’s definitely not like she’s cold-hearted, rather she probably doesn’t feel anything about it even if her father, who born, is mentioned

“So, e do?”

“That’s, of course, hand her over to Burkhart-san”

“Me?” (Burkhart)

Not expecting to be no in wonder

“I hter”

“Well that’s certainly true, but doesn’t it look like she hates me…” (Burkhart)

With Philine being a slightly unusual girl, she likes Doushi+ more than Burkhart-san who’s popular omen and children

Therefore it was dismissed by him as he wouldn’t be able to take care of her himself

“Rather, as she’s a girl, have the young ladies over there take care of her”

Burkhart-san apparently wishes to leave the care of Philine to Elise and the others

“Doushi+ is… I guess impossible…”

Being liked by so able to look after that very person are two different pairs of shoes

Besides, given that it will turn into a probleht be best to prevent that fro

I would hate it to be blarave Breithilde later

“Philine, the cake is delicious, no?” (Ar)

“Yes, Doushi+-sama” (Philine)

“That’s great” (Ar)

“She’s an unusual girl, isn’t she…?”

After all she owns the notable characteristic of being afraid of Burkhart-san, who’s well-received by children and women, and instead not only isn’t she scared of the unpopular Doushi+, but she actually even likes him

Even though her appearance is on the cute side, she sees

“It’s your turn after all, Burkhart-san? Look, it’s a good training for the tihter”

“I will consider that after nantSay, haven’t you entrusted her to Erw-boy, Earl-sama?” (Burkhart)

If she she were a simple commoner, it would have been fine with that, but now that we have confirrave Breithilde, it becomes necessary to handle her appropriately

Meaning, we got once again burdened with difficulties

“That’s rightI agree with my lord”

Even though he has no official position, the times when Erw calls me lord are mostly when there is some worthless reason for it

Ered an expression of “got ya” on his face

“In rave Breithilde-sadom’s south, as maid apprentice is impoliteThere’s no other option but to leave this to you, my lord” (Erwin)

It’s a sound argu able to use this as excuse to paypushed Philine on him once

Due to Philine’s unexpected appearance, I took a trashi+ng as payback

“Erw, try to spell out your real intention”

“No matter how you think about it, no one but you can look after her, WendServes you right” (Erwin)

“I can’t refute that…”

Erw deliberately offered his opinion while respectfully bowing his head, but a bright smile is plastered on his face

It was obvious that you couldn’t interpret that as anything but hi happy that he pushed a seed of trouble upon me

“Just a bit, I feel like killing you, due to that bright smile of yours”

“With it being a real problem, there’s no other choice but have you take care of her, Wend”

“Even if that’s so…”

This kind of banter with Erw is no probleo as Wendelin and not as Earl Baumeister

Given that even Erw can discern between a private and an official occasion, it won’t turn into an issue either

Rather than that, the matter was that she would definitely be forced onto rave Breithilde after having taken care of her

“Once Philine turns 15, Wend, you will be 22 years oldI don’t think that feels out of place at all”

“Moreover, as she’s an illegitimate child, her rank in the succession line will be loellSo there won’t be any kind of problem with that either” (Ina)

I couldn’t do anything but sigh due to Erw’s and Ina’s opinions

I have no doubt that Margrave Breithilde will say that as well

“Master, am I a nuisance?” (Philine)

Just when the discussion got heated, Philine, who finished eating the cake before anyone realized, asks with her eyes tearing up

It looks like she ended up wondering whether she’s unwanted from the flow of the conversation

“There’s no way for that to be trueSince it will take some time to let you meet your father, Philine, I plan to have you learn various things during that time”

“I will be able to meet father?” (Philine)

“He’s in a foreign countryBecause it’s not possible to let you meet with him due to the circumstances, I want you to work as maid for a bitElise” (Wendelin)

“Yes”

“Please use your free tiive her a basic education” (Wendelin)

“Understood” (Elise)

I placed ive Philine an education

“The least auess?”

“Since you are probably busy as well, Elise, I don’t h”

Since her father is Margrave Breithilde, it should be necessary for her to have aher meet him

We ork out an attire that ht now the end of the civil war is the highest priority

“If it’s about that, I will help out as well”

It appears that the talk about teaching Philine good s

She volunteered to participate in Philine’s education

“CakeDelicious”

Wil the cake she received fro it

She’s probably believing that she won’t be able to to teach noble manners by herself

“Eh? Katharina, you will?”

“Although s necessary for a noble without giving upIt’s so use of even nowIt will be fine to leave Philine-san to me with a peace of mind” (Katharina)

“Really?”

“Wendelin-san, do you have any complaints about my conduct as noble?” (Katharina)

“Katharina, your conduct as noble is slightly unnatural”

She’s sticking tooall her strength as she’s always slouching, she ends up appearing as if she has no leeway due to so at her absolute limit

Also, I think it’s also a problem that she occasionally spins her wheels with all her heart

“Wendelin-san, you are too obedientBy nature that’s how nobles are” (Katharina)

—————————————- End of Part 1 ——————————————-

I don’t quite understand since I became a noble all of a sudden, but if all nobles were like Katharina, I feel like that would be a problem in itself

“Beside, it will be problematic if Philine obtains a loner characteristic similar to me and you, Katharina” (Wendelin)

“I’ you, I’m no loner!” (Katharina)

“A loner says that they are no loner”

“Master, loner, what’s that?” (Philine)

“Someone like Katharina”

“Geez, I’m no loner!” (Katharina)

Philine is puzzled due to Katharina’s and ue

Luise had re downhearted

“What’s wrong, Luise?” (Wilma)

“That girl, Philine, even though she’s seven years younger than her than me…” (Luise)

Upon being asked for the reason by Wilrowth

Certainly, if you were to compare Luise and Philine, the majority of people would probably say that Philine is the older one

“But, being set caressed by Wend-sama” (Wilma)

“I’et caressed” (Luise)

“Really? Katharina is delighted when occasionally getting caressed”

“That doesn’t suit her”

“That’s none of your business!” (Katharina)

Leaking the conversation between the two to Katharina, she retorts with a loud voice at Luise’s statement

In the end it’s decided to place Philine at my side as a maid apprentice on the surface and to have Elise and the others take turns in educating her

Of course it’s a secret to the surroundingsI have Therese keep it confidential, too

Given that Therese is a high-ranking noble as well, not allowing her to reveal that kind of inforuaranteed by her as it’s a required etiquette for a noble though her country’s different

“In exchange thou will owe me one favourI wonder how I should have thou pay me back?” (Therese)

“…”

Even though only slightly, I ended up cursing Margrave Breithilde who isn’t here

“Therese-saht the tea”

“Sorry” (Therese)

One week after accepting Philine, Duke Nürnberg should have gathered up his forces and co to Therese, but for so

Philine, ore maid clothes that were adjusted by Elise, lived in our house while learning the hter and maid

Since she had also been a freeloader in that village to begin with, she was apparently able to handle the bare minimum of housework

She is handling the work quicker than I expected

That Philine pours tea to Therese who had visited our home for some reasonTherese thanks her for that

I don’t knohy she ca decent

Her speech and conduct being bad for my stomach was, by now, a set fact

“This is classified information, you know… but it looks like an expeditionary force of Hel like that was annihilated” (Therese)

“Haa?”

At first I didn’t co about

“Thanks to that device, the operation of ic airshi+ps and communication seedom as wellThe whereabouts of the Friendshi+p Visit Group are unknown as well『The royal palace of Heldom couldn’t hold back the advocates of a troop dispatch?』 is” (Therese)

“His Majesty…”

To the nobles, who desire achievements and territory, and the military authorities, who aiet, the disappearance of the Friendshi+p Visit Group until now e

Infore network is not working with co impossibleSo it’s also possible that they were unable to restrain a call for a limited troop dispatch by the nobles who felt anxious

However, this opinion is just a conjecture

Without any communication, it was a problem that no news reached this place

Even Therese is so an inforeons and the traditional fast radation of speed and accuracy of those was considerable after all

There’s also theof spiesAt this time it also happened that absolutely no information came in

“It’s not definite informationBut they probably aiantic Crevice once the opportunity showed itself after waiting and seeing” (Therese)

She heard that an estidom’s royal army infiltrated the eh a impromptu rope-way and occupied a part of the eht attack, destroyed the royal arale with a cavalry unit he led himself

“Just hoeak is the royal army…”

Even though they are our allies, their weakness is pathetic

“Duke Nürnberg is a great commander if he actively takes part in a normal battle” (Therese)

“Duke Nürnberg is a great commander if he actively takes part in a normal battle” (Therese)

Apparently he even left behind the slow-footed infantry and perforainst the royal arantic Crevice

Even if there’s uneasiness as to coth with just the cavalry, he didn’t want to let the advantage of opportunity get away

Youbeing a great commander

“So, what about the royal army?”

“It looks like quite a few nobles were defeatedThough the infor” (Therese)

There ht have been some commanders of the royal army and northern nobles who sent out their soldiers

At any rate, the royal ar is heard of them anymore

It’s bad that they would have to cross the rope-way even if they tried to return to the kingdoantic Crevice even if they escape

“They have capitulated after giving up, are getting finished off through a hunt for the re down the fleeing soldiers” (Therese)

“Guess so… So that’s delaying the in on us?”

“Will there be another troop dispatch by Heldo away since their troops got annihilated? The rebel ar sure of it” (Therese)

Also, if they leave the defeated soldiers alone, the public order will deteriorate

Since it’s possible that the desperate, defeated soldiers will attack villages and cities in their desire for food, Duke Nürnberg has the duty to mop them up

“You are saying they are et the support of the populace as it’s a coup d’etat administration?”

“After all it’s coht have encountered many unexpected difficulties” (Therese)

“I wonder howwith the rebel army?” (Wendelin)

“Even though they are thy allies, thou are saying so there” (Therese)

For me the royal army counts as an ally

However, in this situation I don’t have the leeway to help defeated soldiers who are 1500 kilometres away in the south

Crossing the rope-way of the Gigantic Crevice anda half-assed number of troops invade in this chaotic situation is reckless in itself

Moreover they ended up throwing the situation for our side into disorder unnecessarilyIf things don’t go well, this ht actually become the main reason for the defeat of the liberation army

If he pulverized a royal ar will likely start to talk very highly of his own deeds of arms

There’s the possibility that the nu him due to that will increase

Considering that, I didn’t feel an ounce of will to save the royal army whose commander I don’t know

After all they are an existence pulling our legs

“Maybe the kingdo obliterate the war advocate faction that has become uncontainable?”

As information about the state of the empire’s civil war al a reckless dispatch of troops grew in nudom

Accordingly it『Then, for of only those like-minded』

The kingdoreat celebration if they succeeded despite the low probability, and likewise, even if they failed, they would get cleaned up by the imperial army

There are scary people in the kingdoovernment

“Froantic Crevice to here it’s 1500 kiloht lineThere’s little hope that there’s a corasps the current power distribution of the rebel army and the liberation ar that, systeathers the remnants of the defeated army and escapes up to this place”

“If there was such excellent coin with, I think”

“Being told that…”

“The royal arht attack by Duke Nürnberg, just like the seeds of balsamHowever, it seeot killed in that night raidAccordingly the rebel army seems to hunt down the dispersed remnants of the royal army” (Therese)

The information from Therese ended at this point

Duke Nürnberg won’troyal army in the empire’s south

With those circumstances, we decide to seclude ourselves in the field encampment in the Great Sorbid Wastelands

Even if we once again attacked fortresses and cities because of their lacking stationed troops, the et beaten just like in a whack-ame, thus ill obediently stay in the encampment this time

Since our forces gree advance the construction of the encaainst horses while at the saanization

Given that the nu like a district where athered and in addition it was also necessary to run a red-light district which is an unavoidable part at the front

Of course that responsibility has been completely placed on Therese

“In ht district isn’t really necessaryBut, if we leave it alone, spies will enterAlso, our corief, why does the virgin me have to…” (Therese)

Around half a hed in her office while signing budget docuainst venereal diseases that will be sold cheaply to prostitutes

“I don’t need soh” (Wendelin)

“Wendelin, thou have five wives after all” (Therese)

While looking at a business license of a brothel that had been newly established, I looked for errors in the documents

At the beginning I was slightly bewildered, but when I actually tried to do paperwork such as this, my memories from my previous life are useful as well

“Since thereto attack my wives, brothels are a necessary evil, I suppose?”

“That’s a splendid way of thinking for a devoted husbandIf thou like, I don’t mind at all if thou add me into that as well” (Therese)

“Hahaha, that’s a funny joke, you know” (Wendelin)

“Thou have dodged that one s problems” (Therese)

asse their for theoes favourably as well

But, it’s a long enca

Even if you consider just their food consu in the liberation army are likely at their wits’ end

“The rewards due to distinguished war services are put on holdWe are even asking the nobles, who have some leeway, to provide food andthe central area” (Therese)

She’s going to have to repay the nobles, of who some extras

In noble society, words such as volunteer or donations don’t exist

No one considers the donations to the poor and the church as genuine donations as they obtain benefits in the form of reputation due to those contributions

I will say it one more time; in noble society words such as volunteer or donations don’t exist

“The rebel ar with the national treasury of the central government, aren’t they?”

It can be seen well on a glance, but that’s carrying on by sacrificing the precious assets of the empire

If it’s a foreign cah the pillaged oods or territory, but since it’s a civil war, the eoods

Once the civil war ends, it’s quite likely that there will only be eroup in the treasuries located in the empire’s imperial palace

“It’s a great help that thou are here, Wendelin” (Therese)

“Really?” (Wendelin)

“Even the other nobles can’t ask for anything too greedy in front of thou, Wendelin” (Therese)

I have obtained the best deeds of arms within the liberation ar patrols to cast healing s and a Therese as a staff officerI have also provided quite the amount of food and money

Since even so conferred the title of honorary Earl, it seems to be a situation where it’s difficult for the other nobles to speak up

“If you don’t provide proper rewards afterwards, it will trigger a second civil war”

“That’s so harsh to sayOf course I will provide satisfactory rewards” (Therese)

It’s probably fully possible if it’s the national power of the eer for a bit due to the heavy burden on its financial affairs

It won’t work out unless she creates a neer distribution in the empire with the nobles who participated in the liberation armyFor that reason the liberation ares of the nobles, who participated in the rebel army, as much as possible

But, if she goes too far with that, it will lead to a second civil war

With the difficulty of balancing that out, I was certain that I would immediately escape and seek asylum if it was me

That’s because I think I would beco of the rewards, going by Earth’s tery

“Really, if there was another optio”

“You have my condolences”

“Why are thou treating it as if it’s somebody else’s problem? It also concerns the reward for thou, Wendelin”

I still haven’t received even a single copper coin, but with the annuity as honorary Earl and the individual request achieve a decent amount of money

Also, I’ due to the collection of metal resources from the abandoned mines around the Great Sorbid Wastelands
