Vol 9 Chapter 152 (1/2)
Sevens: Fiennes Walt
Fiennes Walt
It was the Sixth’s room of memories
Having corade, and was shown the Sixth’s memories
A single woer sister of another mother sobbed as she held onto her own birth mother
Looking at the Fifth… at Fredricks, she hung her head, and cried even harder
The Sixth of memories… Fiennes spoke
『Pops, she just went through hell Leave her be』
Fiennes rose to protect his sister, but Fredricks was different He looked at the sobbing girl, and spoke to his mistress, the woman’s mother
『… We’re bringing her back Make the preparations』
There, the woman
『… It’s because youhter with good blood, after all!』
In regards to that, thejeers close, as she took her out of the room
And perhaps Fiennes couldn’t endure it anyrasped Fredricks’ lapels
『So your damn beasts really aretreated that way, you don’t even feel irritated, do you!?』
There, Fredricks smiled just a little
And he punched Fiennes off his feet, and restrained hiround The one who ran into the rooal wife, Fiennes’ mother
『Fiennes!』
Seeing a scene of her own son held to the ground, Fiennes’ mother panickedAnd Fredricks spoke in a quiet voice
『Right, that how you all should be… you pass』
Saying that, he released Fiennes, and spoke in a loud voice
『Prepare the ar along No… you should stand at the head』
Seeing the figure of his father s, Fiennes looked surprised
And with those words, Fredricks left the rooathered infront of it After he issued out a series of orders, they beganaround in hot haste
But they seemed somewhat happy
Fiennes was lifted up by his ure, and muttered
『The hell That unsociable man is…』
There, Fiennes’ birth mother spoke
『He used to be a man who smiled a lot, it seerandmother?』
Fiennes
『… I’d heard But it was surely bullshi+t』
Saying that, fiennes parted with his mother, and left the room
Seeing the scene, the Sixth put his hand to his jaw He looked upon it with soia
The scene changed
It was a scene outside
In the very center of a settles Fields expanded outwards, and a river ran through But it wasn’t such a serene setting
Knights rode their horses, and the soldiers marched in orderly lines
Equipulation to the for the close, the arh the settlement
“What is this supposed to be? Norht!”
The Sixth raised a laugh It was a grand laugh, as he pointed at a certain point
『What if you go far enough that resistance is pointless?』
Looking back,in succession They weren’t only gathering on that path
They gathered fros as they headed for that walled district
The Sixth spoke nostalgically
『Our father thought of the Walt House’s martial law But to fully actualize it, he would need those that had studied it stationed across the land And he couldn’t just teach everyone without discerning friend and foe That’s ere necessary… he educated us, and trained us to be deployed in foreign land He taught the daughters as well, and taught them to pass the doctrine to their children』
“He did so like that?”
『Yeah But at the time, it was so they could make it to the top in any House』
I wondered whether there was really a need to go that far In the Seventh’s era, there’s no doubt it had spread even further
『Troop nuulations… it was around that time that an elite force that maintained all of those points was completed』
That may be why the equipment looked uniform
And the Sixth spoke
『Look The soldiers who climbed up the wall to look are dazed, aren’t they? It’s because this is the aather at a moment’s notice!』
There’s the fact it was still within the territory, but thatthat created a situation where so many troops could be mobilized at once
The surrounding feudal lords had torh for him to feel a need
Looking at the town, an envoy hurriedly caotiate
The scene changed to a tent with Fredricks and Fiennes In it were men with extra armaments
The envoy wasin his chare
Next to Fredricks sat the woirl’s clothes Herher head as she sat
Seeing her like that, her brothers of the same mother tried to stand, and attack the envoy Their other siblings around held them back
『Unhand ht!? Take his head, and make that our response!』
To his ra brothers, Fiennes spoke
『Don’t kill the er! That is our rule If you want to kill him, wait for the battlefield, or after that』
The envoy’s face was pale
『Count! We’ve sworn to enter your patronage! This treatment is too much!』
And Fredricks sent a glance to his daughter casting her eyes down
『… Tell this envoy what’s happened to you Your family will see to the rest of it』
There, the woan to recount
『… Once you birth a boy, we no longer need you they said』
The envoy’s face grew paler, as he tried to correct a
『T-that’s wrong! That e were teaching her the rules of our House, and while we ht it best to be strict with our teachings』
The sharp eyes around shut up thewith her siblings behind, were some other vassal nobles
『… How ave you worth, they asked A poor and unreliable house, they said』
Crying, the woman used a hand to wipe her tears The reactions around were cold ones And there, Fredricks started laughing
『I see, so I’ot so o around And then?』
The envoy sent a look to the wo everything that had been done, perhaps he was beginning to regret
『… People of the Walt house should just be slaves We’re going to turn coat and take e can, after all, so you need only hand over your noble blood They took away my son… I haven’t even held him before!』
Hearing that, whatever filled the tent had turned to a thirst for blood Those around of vassal houses yelled at the envoy
『So that was your intentions after all! Since you cas slide… Count! Leave the vanguard to hter of yours the saive any such as he!』
There, Fiennes’ siblings
『After treating our sister like a slave? Don’t screith et back! That’s why I told you never to take up a House like this! The only one here who’ll help you is the waning baron, so go try and sell yourself to him!』
The Sixth was s, but as I couldn’t s the situation, I tilted my head
“Waning? Um, what exactly happened?”
『Hmm? Ah, around this timeframe, the Baron House next door was on the decline Well, they did do a toll on Walt House land Look, the Fifth disinterestedly crushed all the bandits flowing in, and crushed a few ades He used quite some terrible means, but the Baron House that’d taken the opportunity to try and plunder… their knights were killed, and on top of no longer being capable of plunder, they lost their horses and equipment! What’s more, with constant losses, they even lost their credibility!』
Hearing that, I got the general idea The Fifth had endured
He crushed the bandits invading, and crushed the e and plunder Meaning the Walt House was beco a troublesome entity for its opposition
“But if they’re all part of the same country, doesn’t repeated plunder drop credibility as it is?”
But the Sixth…
『It’s actually quite co, and using e politics, we increased our allies It was true noble blood Anyone would want it』
Anobles, there were quite a few Houses without that bloodline So that’s what the Fifth had made use of
The envoy frantically tried to alter the explanation, but the floas no longer changeable
