South Beim

There, Ih

“It has been a while, Lyle-sama”

Pledging loyalty on a knee in knight attire, Baldoir-san… no, Baldoir had o, apparently

After that, he ventured out fro On top of that, once he returned, he helped the head, and spent his time on his territory, so he was an individual uncharmed by Celes

Even with the Sixth’s Skill, Baldoir’s reaction was displayed in blue

“Good of you to have co you to work for my sake”

He stood

“Leave it to h House is a House with a debt to the Walts You’ll certainly see how useful I can be Order however you will”

I didn’t have thehi But to be honest, I was too busy at present to talk about that

“Hearing that is a relief In that case, the three hundred fifty troops you brought will come underout their equipinal equip out However, don’t sell it off”

In the office of my simple estate in South Beim, Baldoir was a little confused

“I understand that you’re short on troops, but are you certain? If you have the money to pay for the equipment of three hundred fifty men, should you not hire more?”

I sat in a chair, and faced the desk I had been processing theanother of them, I turned my eyes to Baldoir

“No problem I’ll procure the troops I lack frootten the equipether”

The craftsrated in… on top of the smiths of the four-country alliance and Cartaffs; I had already put in the requests

I was curious as to how far they’d gotten in my time away, and when I asked around, it seems we had three thousand ready

“By the way, there’s a weapon I’d like to entrust the for those three hundred fifty”

Baldoir gave a strong nod

“The Randbergh House has never been negligent in basic training Whether it be sword or spear or bow, they will handle them well”

Tough luck What we assembled wasn’t sword, spear or bow

“It’s a bit different Truth be told, I’ll be having them use this”

I handed a gun to Baldoir

“Lyle-saun, is it not?”

“Oh, you know of it? Thatthem for your numbers was our lie help Your h quality, and I can entrust it to the at once?”

Baldoir held up the gun in both hands

“I do know of theeneration of the Walt House uns kept at our house However… saying there were too many problems to use the them…”

There were quite a few probleic shi+eld And the biggest proble of soldiers who used theht down the drain

“It’s fine They’re also Magic Tools engraved with Skills To add to that… theI’vve borrowed from an acquaintance, so worry not”

Seeing me avert my eyes, Baldoir looked worried

Hearing that Baldoir knew of guns, yet that my father had prohibited their use, the Seventh let out a conflicted voice

『… no eforward』

To hiave a fed-up tone

『We were able to carry it out because we have the crafts Realize we’d never be able to ainally On top of how it couldn’t help but cost money, the effect is too questionable Maizel’s decision was spot on』

Money wasn’t enough to ather all the consumable rounds, the craftse, or you’d never be able to apply them

Baldoir carefully held the gun as he sought verification with me

“By the way, Lyle-sa appart from us?”

I returned back to my paperwork

“From the entirety of the alliance, thirty to forty thousand I’ve already borrowed close to ten thousand fro your men, close to five hundred With the entire force of South Beim, not even two thousand”

Hearing those words, Baldoir cried out

“Hold it right there! You plan on fighting the armies of Bahnseim with those numbers!?”

It’s true, they had forces exceeding three hundred thousand If we fought that, victory would be a dream of a distant dream

“Eh? No way Don’t getto breach a massive foe with a small force”

Baldoir was flustered

“In that case, you aim to break it piece by piece? But with such a difference in number…”

This tiin using soldiers of Bahnseim

If I were to borrow soldiers froe debt post-war What I hated most was the fact that matter was directly related to the power balance of the hareuess that didn’t matter for now

“Piece by piece is standard fare But Beio about it Well, I won’t do any reckless charges”

There, Baldoir laughed just a bit

“What?”

“No I just thought Lyle-sama was a splendid man of the Walt House, is all”

For some reason, his words did not sound like a compliment to me
