The Ability to Make Town!? ~Let’s Make a Japanese Town in Different World~ Chapter 98 – At That Time Other Countries

Town chapter 98: At that time other countries

The situational story of the continent before entering into politics:

The information brought back by the spies of each country has shocked the continent.

『Initia Kingdom lost』

The advance of Initia Kingdom, which had a tendency to drop flying birds. The fall of Dryad Kingdom was obvious to everyone when, in fact, the Initia army has captured the royal capital of Dorisben and only needed to capture the queen who fled to the north. However, the outlying land where the queen fled, just one territory in the north, defeated the pursuing Initia army and captured their leader, Reanis.

"Wh, What happened!"

These words aren't from someone specific. In other words, 「Everyone」. The influential people of each country heard the news of the defeat of the Initia army―words that everyone said.

Particularly astounding were the generals of the Eastern Nations Allied Forces, gathering troops in the western part of the Igor Empire and waiting for commands. Among them, the surprise of the current Pope of Ras.h.i.+a, Evans Holt En Bruem who himself served as the General of the Eastern Nations Allied Forces, staying at the headquarters was extraordinary.

Anyway, Reanis is Evans's younger sibling, and the big decisive battle between east and west that was supposed to begin was to decide which one is appropriate for being the Pope. Before it was settled, it can be said that the surprise is not unreasonable since Reanis lost to the fighting power that only one territory has. Evans heard of the news of Reanis's defeat, but shook his dull silver hair, which was similar to his younger brother, and stood up while swaying the useless flesh attached to his body and didn't speak for a while.

"Is it some kind of plot?"

Eventually, Evans lowered his barrel-like a.s.s onto a chair and muttered. He acknowledged his brother's excellence and doubted whether he would win or lose because he believed to be superior to his younger brother. But there is no answer to this question yet. It was less than a day after the battle started. The spy was not on the scene, only witnessing the defeated army and not knowing the details. The only answer from the spy was 「I'm investigating」 and Evans waited for a follow-up call and strictly ordered all the troops in the coalition to be on 「Standby」.

Meanwhile, news of the defeat of the Initia Kingdom spread throughout the city.

"No way, the Initia army was defeated in an old country with one foot in a coffin.''

"No, no, it was the lords of the frontier who defeated the army led by the bandit general Reanis and the Dryad Kingdom itself seems to have been defeated."

"Quite fast. Should we laugh at Reanis's inability to lose to the lord of the frontier or pity on the weakness of Dryad Kingdom who lost their lands or praise the lord of the frontier who defeated Reanis? It's a difficult story."

From ear to ear, from mouth to mouth. There is no gap between people's rumors. People who make and sell information live by saying, 「The Kingdom of Initia is not a single rock. The internal change is probably the reason for the defeat」 or 「Not sure. It's just the difference in quality, that is, the difference in morale and skill of soldiers」. Talking, deceiving, or uncertain information causes people to get confused and begin to whirlwind of things that do not exist. Rumors have always been the entertainment of people which did not change over time.

Meanwhile, Evans received a letter from that place――Fujiwara territory――with the establishment of Edo. At the same time, spies brought about new information. The report states that the Fujiwara territory (now Edo) defeated Reanis's army with cannons, just like the Initia Kingdom. Financial bureaucrats are also working hard to raise a ransom for the captive Reanis. It was reported that beastmen were responsible for the military in the country of Edo.

"I see......Reanis, did that foolish brother lose? Kukuku......haaahahahahahahaha!!!!"

Upon receiving the report, Evans laughed out loud, shaking the meat on his cheeks. It was proven here. Reanis was not an opponent, but rather an enemy who is easy to defeat. Only Evans was worthy of being the Pope.

"The Initia Kingdom is insignificant. I'll destroy it. I'll let you know who you were confronting with."

Evans has issued a command to advance now. There is no reason for the Eastern Allies to obey this. If the general is taken captive, the enemy is no longer an army. Its morale will have declined significantly. On the contrary, the morale of the army is increasing. In addition, the allied generals had fierce contempt for the Initia Kingdom army. They shout:

"The Initia army's success to date may have been due to the fact that the small nation and Dryad Kingdom were so pitiful."

Anyone reasonably thinks so. The generals became as enthusiastic as to say that the time was ripe and moved the army. It's not the only way to make a mistake. It was an advance to start the invasion even by tomorrow.

However, some countries have turned to logistical support. The Sandra Kingdom and the Princ.i.p.ality of Schugling. The two countries refused to go on the front line until they had supplied their troops. The general of Sandra Kingdom, Mireille, was severely damaged by the previous battle with the Robutas Kingdom. And due to the fact that the military was not yet fully restored, the generals of the Princ.i.p.ality of Schugling had little experience in fighting.

No matter how anyone looked at it, it was clear that they have taken a neutral side right now. Then, what is their real intention?

The Sandra Kingdom was deprived of the western region by the Princ.i.p.ality of Schugling just a few years ago. The Sandra Kingdom might want to take advantage of this opportunity to regain the western region. The Princ.i.p.ality of Schugling may antic.i.p.ate it and return to their home country at any time. In short, it's not impossible that they might restrain each other.

In the prestigious Allied army trying to defeat the continent's rebels, the ideas of both countries are not normally forgiven. But now that the army of the Initia kingdom is considered a scare, the land of Dryad Kingdom is equal to a golden pie for the Allies. It is better to distribute the pie to fewer people. Thus, of the Allied Forces of the Eastern Nations, El Dorado, the Igor Empire, the Castille Kingdom and the Robutas Kingdom will be in charge of front units while the Sandra Kingdom and the Princ.i.p.ality of Schugling will be supporting the logistics.

Initia and Eastern Nations Allied Forces. No more until they cross each other. The war that decided the fate of the continent was about to end.

South of the continent, Youju Empire. It is a land where revolts have recently occurred in several territories, following the invasion of the Initia Kingdom.

"Fujiwara, I thought that only Reanis was fighting for victory. But was there an ambush in an unexpected place?"

It is Giuliano Gavino Va.s.sari who says so, with brown hair with white skin and red that is often found in the land of Youju Empire. The sharp eyebrows and well-shaped nose are proof of their neat features. But a handful of people called Giuliano:

――Nagai.

Nagai heard the news of the defeat of the Initia Kingdom army at the 「Throne」. Why, throne? It should be known that the castle and the town where the emperor lived are now all Nagai's. The banner of revolution that was raised was already raised in the emperor's castle.

"Report!　We have captured the emperor and his family!"

A new messenger has arrived in the throne room. The former emperor of the Youju Empire fled from the imperial capital. No one is on the side of the emperor anymore. First, Nagai destroyed the lords who would swear loyalty to the emperor even if they died, and the rest fell to Nagai, judging the big picture.

The emperor and his relatives are pulled up like sinners before Nagai who ordered to「Bring them」. There is no supremacy in those expressions though they are all members of the royal family. They were all living corpses.

"Va.s.sari......"

"You're in the opposite position now, Emperor."

The emperor, who regretfully calls the name of Nagai. And Nagai, who looks down on the former emperor from the throne. In the past, the emperor has been making numerous out-of-the-ordinary requests to take advantage of the development of Nagai's territory―the Va.s.sari territory. Nagai knelt to humiliation and accepted them all. But the sharp nails, which should not be known, were still hidden.

"Emperor, a fierce monarch. You have been busy building up your fortunes and building your army and it is certainly right to see the situation on today's continent. But you don't care too much for others. The country and myself can only see that you are strong. In the lower part, the people were tightened, the far relation was excluded in the upper part and only your blood was given preferential treatment. Therefore, a disturbance broke out. Can you hear those voices? You have only enemies."

From the outside of the castle, you can hear, 『Va.s.sari-sama Banzai!! Our new Emperor!』, which is like a storm. The soldiers and the people inside and outside the castle, all of whom rejoiced in Nagai's victory, continued without stopping.

"... I guess you're right. I don't care if I'm killed. Do as you like with the others. But only my smallest daughter needs help. She is four, an age when even the responsibility as the royal family cannot be understood yet. Please, I'm begging you"

The emperor begged with his head on the floor, his hands tied behind his back. Surprising his relatives as they start begging for help. They say bad things about the emperor and even began to utter words that praise Nagai.

"Alright, I will help her. The youngest daughter will be helped. Let's take care of her here so that there is no inconvenience until she come of age."

"Thank you."

Mercy is the best way to attract people. Especially for the j.a.panese, the effect is instantaneous. There was also a j.a.panese as a lieutenant of Nagai, so Nagai knew well how to handle the situation.

Only the youngest daughter is taken to another room and the emperor and others are taken to be beheaded. Nagai left the room without seeing their execution.

By the way, Nagai showed a piece of mercy. But that's just ostensibly. When Nagai returned to his new room, the Imperial Mansion, he called someone. It is Nagai's confidant and a secret secretary who works behind the scenes. Nagai gives an order to him.

"Clean up."

"I understand."

Who is he going to get rid of? It is not surprising.

From the j.a.panese point of view, it may be an act without blood or tears. But Nagai knows what to do as ruler. No matter what the situation, you may use your feelings, but you will not be praised by your feelings. The death of the emperor's family did not matter, and his thought had already moved far north.

"Reanis lost. Has he terrible abilities or terrible wisdom? Fujiwara......I left him alone until today, but apparently it was a mistake"

Nagai sinks down on a luxurious sofa. He knew about Fujiwara. However, just like Reanis, he left him alone after a little research. The only things to look at were spices such as pepper and potatoes. But that is wrong. At the same time, Nagai's thoughts that Reanis's current position might have been himself came to mind. Nagai raises his head when the secret chief returns.

"Send all humans to the northern land. Not only spies. Anyone who can breathe here, regardless of profession or race. Even if it's trivial. It doesn't matter. Gather information from all angles, regardless of size."

"Yes, certainly."

First, know the enemy. In modern j.a.pan, it is a common law that everyone knows. Nagai has to be cautious about the one who can defeat Reanis. Gather all the information, make the land of Fujiwara bare and then take measures.

"In any case, first of all, the loser?"

Given the current situation in the Initia Kingdom, it is not hard to imagine the movement of the Eastern Nations Allies Forces. Even for Nagai, it was a great opportunity to destroy the Initia Kingdom――and thus Reanis.
