"...... Once again, they are a great bunch of guys. The general is great, but his brother Kyle is pretty crazy too. I didn't think it would go this far."

"It is truly amazing, Mr. Vargas. Kyle was a good friend of my husband's and we often had dinner together. He was always smiling and kind. ....... He was such a great guy."

"Yes, it is. I've known Kyle since he was just a little boy, so I'd say that's even more true. He's been under the shadow of the general for a while now, but maybe this will make him famous. I guess that's what he was aiming for."

"Oh, you mean that this broadcast will make Kyle's name famous. Yes, that's right. I'm sure it will."

　The battle between Reed's army and the allied forces of King's Landing ended easily.

　The great battle, which was to have taken place in the south of King's Landing, ended without a single man crossing swords.

　All that was left was a beautiful field of flowers, and the figures of those who had fallen down, incapacitated by sleep, paralysis, or poisoned by the flowers.

　However, it would be a bit awkward to end the broadcast at this point.

　The battle between the Balkan army and the Reinsatz army took quite a long time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I mean, in a normal battle, it would have taken time anyhow.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had assumed that it would take much longer, especially with such a large army at work.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I was not the only one who thought so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Probably, the same is true for those who are listening to this radio broadcast, or were planning to listen to it.

　Especially, we do not know when the live commentary of this battle will start.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The only thing we can do is to give an advance notice of how many days later and at what time the two armies are likely to make a move.

　Those who have just been listening to the news may be fine, but those who have just started listening to the news or are planning to listen to the news may be annoyed if they are told that it is already over.

　Therefore, it was decided that it was necessary to continue the broadcast for a little while longer.

　When the radio broadcaster showed us a piece of paper that said, "Stretch the story," we decided to take a look back at the battle.

"How well do you think Kyle has been known so far, Miss Kiri?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Kyle, your name recognition?　I am sure that within the Kingdom of Fontana, it is reasonably well known. They must have a person with the surname of Reed to rule in each area. But in other areas, such as the royal capital area, I don't think it was well known at all.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I knew it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's not surprising. The Reed family itself is the name of the new house created by Mr. Kyle. Besides, Kyle wasn't even a knight, let alone a nobleman, until he acquired his domain just a few days ago. There's no way he's well-known.

"When you think about it, I wonder how they are able to rule the current Reed territory. The residents of Reed Territory started to manage the territory with the question, "Who the hell is Kyle Reed?　I'm sure it was a lot harder than I thought it would be."

　I know this firsthand.

　I am now in charge of the entire Arbalest region.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But this land was originally ruled by the Arbalest family.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Naturally, people with close ties to the Arbalest family have taken root in the community.

　And here I, a mere peasant, was to rise to the top as a ruler.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There was quite a backlash.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But I guess I was still better off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　After all, at that time I had the acting head of the Fontana family, the general, behind me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To oppose me would make the general an enemy, which would also make the entire House of Fontana an enemy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I managed to keep this kind of relationship of power in play.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But in the vicinity of the Holy City, that approach must have been almost impossible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There must have been many who refused to listen to the Reed family, saying that they did not know them.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I think it was because of Kyle that he was able to control them and manage his territory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Especially, the fact that he created such a magic as [Judgment] was probably the most important thing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I can't use it, but I've heard about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I've heard voices in my head forcing me to make a decision.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Almost everyone in the territory heard Kyle's voice dozens and dozens of times a day, day after day, and knew that they were being judged.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Because of this, they would have been able to remember who their rulers were.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it is not perfect.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With the judgment, Kyle's name is now recognized in Reed's territory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it is not enough to pay attention only to the inside of the territory in order to manage Reed Fiefdoms smoothly.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Rather, it is what is outside the territory that is important.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle's name was still not well known to the people of Rheinsatz and the nobles and knights north of King's Landing, including those in the King's Landing area.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They may not have heard the voice of the judge, and they may only be aware that he is the leader of the power that suddenly took possession of the site of the Holy City.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And his power is also unknown.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle was a general in Fontana's army, and he was in charge of the army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　However, it was only one of the armies.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In other words, he was only recognized as one of the generals, since he had never been a general who ran the whole army.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He may have been barely recognized as a general who excelled in wits and skillful military maneuvering.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In such a situation, it would have been difficult for him to have a diplomatic relationship with the royal sphere and the nobles on a more than equal footing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That is why the general had this radio broadcast.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To make the name of Kyle Reed known.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To show that Kyle is not just a man with some useful cultural magic.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He also made all the nobles and knights realize that he is not just a man who is good at military command and control.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe that is the reason why the general did not go to Kyle's aid.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　To prove that he alone can win a battle against more than 12,000,000 opponents.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And it turned out to work.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kyle showed his undiscovered ability and won.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　And I, and others on this radio station, would celebrate Kyle's achievement day after day.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Thus, even after the battle between Reed's army and the Allied Forces of King's Landing was over, the station continued to broadcast about Kyle's achievements, and Kyle's name became so well known that no one would ever know of him.
