"Hey, hey, I've been waiting for you, that I have. Nice to meet you, I am Banagher, that I am.

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

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Banagher. I am Alphonse Valka.

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

Welcome, Mr. Alphonse. Hmmm, you and Ars are indeed very much alike. I am sure that we are brothers, that we are.

"Isn't that right?　People often say I look like the same person as my brother Ars."

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

"Ha-ha-ha. You're right. That's a very good point.

　We enter the building, walk through it, and enter a back room.

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

　The person in the back room was Banagher.

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

　He welcomed us with a big grin and open arms.

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

　We greeted each other and exchanged pleasantries.

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

　Banagher told us that he belonged to the council that ran the city-state of Orient.

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

　I had expected him to be much older.

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

　But it seems he is not that old yet.

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

　Maybe it is because he is a blacksmith like Gran.

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

　His arm muscles are well toned.

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

　He is probably in his early twenties.

I would like to say, "Thank you for coming, that you are, but can Mister Alphonse really fight, that he can?　He is still a child and does not seem to be old enough to be on the battlefield, that I can see. ......"

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

"Don't worry, I can fight. I mean, that's what I'm here for."

"Hmm. Certainly, Christina, a female merchant, testified to that, that she did. Mister Alphonse is more powerful than all the men in the world. Well, we'll see how good he is in a real battle in the near future. We will offer the mercenaries a place to stay in the house we showed them, that we will. I am sure that they have everything they need, that they have, but if there is anything missing, that they should let me know.

"Thank you, Mr. Banagher. By the way, that was decided in the discussion with your brother Ars, wasn't it?"

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

Yes, that it is. But to tell you the truth, I wish you had come in larger numbers, that is, not as mercenaries but as an army. Speaking of Mister Ars, he's a person who talks with the 2nd Prince Charles and Princess Charlotte, who are also the high lords of Briaria, as equals, that he is. Can't we ask Mister Alphonse to contact Mister Ars now and ask him to lead the army, that we can't?"

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

　Hmmm.

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

　I guess Banagher wants his brother Ars to bring the army.

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

　That's right, he may feel why a child is bringing mercenaries with him.

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

　He only promises to treat them as per the arrangement he made with Brother Ars because he knows Brother Ars.

　I may have to show you how the Barka mercenaries work at the earliest opportunity.

"I don't think he'll come even if I told him..."

"Why is that, that it is?　I have heard that the Sky King has closed his country, that he has closed his country, that he has closed his country, but he stayed in Briaria last year, that he should have stayed in Briaria last year. There is no rule that says you must never leave your country, is there?"

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

"No, I don't. But I can't. Brother Ars and Gran are busy with other things.

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

"Engrossed in other things?　And what do you mean, that you and Mr. Gran are together?　What are you preoccupied with, that you are?"

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

"Maybe they're on the moon by now.　I thought you said you were going to explore the moon."

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

"What about ......?　By moon, do you mean that round moon shining in the night sky, that you mean?"

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

"Yes, yes. The moon, Mr. Banagher.

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

"I don't know what ...... means, that I don't know. How are we going to get to that moon in the sky, that we are?"

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

"It's a ship. They say they're going to build some kind of spaceship and fly it up to the sky. To be honest, I don't know what that is.

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

　Banagher is puzzled by my words.

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

　As expected, his understanding of the situation has not caught up with him immediately.

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

　Anyone who hears this story will be like that.

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

　You wonder how much of the story is true.

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

　But this is a true story that seems to be a lie.

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

　Brother Ars has been preoccupied with his plan to go to the moon.

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

　I'm sure he and Gran were working together on building a spaceship or something.

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

　And it has taken shape and is being put to practical use.

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

　I think they are probably flying to the moon by now.

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

"......I don't understand, that I don't understand, that you are doing something like that now, that you are doing something like that. No, in fact, I wanted to say something to him who has not shown any sign of coming back while his country is in such a situation, that he is not coming back to the moon or ....... You are doing a magnificent research that is unimaginable.

"You know, it's great, Brother Ars and Mr. Gran."

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

"By the way, why are you going to the moon, that you are?　I assume that there is a reason, but I have no idea what it is, that I do not know.

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

"Well, can I tell you something, Ai?"

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

"Not at all, Master Alphonse. Master Ars Varka has gone to collect moonstones.

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

"Moonstone?　What is it, that it is?"

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

"A mineral found on the surface of the moon, Master Banagher. It is believed that the mineral, which has special effects, is difficult to obtain outside of the moon.

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

"Moonstone. An unknown mineral. I see. No wonder Mr. Gran hasn't come back, that it is. I'd like to go there myself.

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

　It seems that, as a maker, he now understands how Gran feels.

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

　In addition to Banagher, there are other Orientals in this room.

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

　Until then, they seemed to be taking a step away from us, leaving their responses to us to Banagher alone.

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

　However, the atmosphere changed.

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

　I could see that everyone was listening intently.

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

　Thank you, brother Ars.

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

　You've made a good point.

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

　Thus, the Balkan mercenaries who met Banagher in the heart of the Orient succeeded in making a reasonable impression on him.
