After all, the eastern third of the Great Southern Forest has already been taken over by our Lord.
　With the Shin-En-Dragon who reported to me with a smug look on his face.

...Yeah?
　I'm not getting the point.
　I don't get it, but what do you mean by territory?

The Lord's sister, who is under your protection, would never dare to try anything in your domain.
...Yes?

　What are you saying in the past...?

See, she's been away since this morning, hasn't she?
'Yeah. You were out somewhere as soon as you ate breakfast, weren't you?

"As a matter of fact, my concubine has cut out a strip of land on the east side of the Great Southern Forest in the name of our Lord.
Cut it out.

　Shin'en-ryu, are you really saying what you said earlier...?

This means that one third of the Great Southern Forest belongs to our Lord. What a surprise!
I'm really sorry about the super smugness. But can I just say something?　What are you talking about?

　I had a straight face.

No, no, my sister told me that you can't play in the forest.
''We had a bunch of demons out a while ago. We're going to have to wait and see for a while longer and not go into the forest too much...

That's why I went out and gave those impudent thugs a break. And on the way out, she talked the forest dwellers into swearing their undying loyalty to the Lord.

This isn't happening to me at all!　Why do you think he's just going to have a light-hearted conversation about whether to have a katsudon or a ten-don for lunch?　I mean, what do you mean you made me pledge my allegiance?!

There were elves and beastmen living around there. I gently asked them to choose whether they would obey their master quietly or resist and let their entire clan fall to ruin.

Hey hey hey.
　Wait a minute.

There was no resistance at all. Perhaps they were afraid of the greatness of the Lord, the God-Destroying King, and the greatness of the Mistress, the Shin-En-Dragon, so they showed their reverence one by one, putting me first. So the forest is now at ease.

　With a smug look on his face, he was nodding his head with a satisfied smile on his face.
　But--.

I'm so relieved! I'm not!　The revolutionary regime has been playing the politics of fear for a while now!　That's called blackmail!　I'm not afraid of you, I'm literally afraid of you!　I mean, what are you doing, dude!

It's a good thing that he is a king, because he needs a certain amount of land. It's still not quite big enough compared to how big the Lord's vessel is, but I'm glad to see that the Lord is pleased.

I'm not happy at all!　It's a total panic!　Aren't those large forests the territory of the Empire to begin with?　The road to the imperial capital that we passed last time, it goes through the northern part of the forest, right?　I don't suppose you're depriving the Empire of its territory?　Isn't that seriously bad!

　I'm not looking for a story of a nation-stealing or a territorial management simulation of an alternate universe reincarnation!
　I really don't want to be at war with a huge empire that controls most of the continent or anything like that!

The area around the road is the territory of the Schweinsteiger Empire, but the area south of there isn't ruled by anyone in particular. It's also meant to be a buffer zone between the dark continent where the demons live and the dark continent. If I had to put it that way, it would be something like the autonomous region of the Supreme Wolf and the Forest People Elves.

　Uzuki, who had just finished preparing dinner, came over and gave me a simple explanation.

Uzuki came over after we had finished preparing dinner and gave us a clear explanation. Thank you for the clear explanation. You're a real expert," Uzuki said.
'No, no, I'm glad to be of service to you, Seya. Yes, here's your tea.

Thanks...... Ah, a hot cup of tea will soothe all the mental fatigue that has come over me at once....

　Thanks to the tea you made me, I can take a break.
　It's a good thing, Uzushi, that the strange conversation that's been going on here is going to go smoothly.......

　........There was a time when I thought that too.
