　The post-processing against Peria is over.

　Now it is up to the remaining Karens.

　Formally, Peria has not been annexed by the Orient, so it remains an independent and self-reliant nation.

　Well, in case they try to attack me or the church again, they will soon find out since Ai is there.

　While we hoped that they would do well, in the meantime, preparations for an attack on the country of Glugaria were being steadily made.

　They had been gathering evidence even before Karen and the others arrived in Peria.

　They would show a move to attack the church in order to lure me out, and when I came to their rescue, they would use their main force to attack from the rear.

　The question is whether the Hail Medium of Glugaria was involved in this operation.

　We will examine the items we confiscated from the occupied building and interview the people involved to find out what happened.

　In this way, we have evidence that Hale's move was coordinated in advance with the Peruvian state.

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

　With this evidence, he declared a declaration of war against the country of Glugaria.

　The fact that Hale, a leading figure in the country, had cowardly attempted to conspire with another country to launch an attack was a sufficient reason to open war.

　In the meantime, here are some measures to avoid war.

　You can give me the right to cut down the soft magic tree in the middle of the Gulu River, along with compensation.

　As a matter of fact, due to the recession that followed the collapse of the magical tool market, I have been purchasing land in various places.

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

　Among them was a piece of land in the middle of the Gulu River.

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

　So, although I have a piece of land in the middle of the Gulu River, I had not obtained the right to cut down trees on the land alone, as I was not allowed to do so.

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

　So, I am going to get the right this time.

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

　But, of course, the country of Bulgaria did not recognize it.

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

　They must have known that.

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

　They knew that they could never do that.

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

　In the first place, the soft magic tree is not just any tree.

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

　It is not only the material for a powerful bow that only the Gulagarians can make. It is also a spiritual pillar and a symbol.

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

　It is a matter of course that we should not give the right to the top of the military of a neighboring country to have it at their disposal.

　And moreover, it may be impossible to preserve it.

　The Gulu River is a rather large river, and its middle is also quite wide.

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

　But no matter how wide it is, there is a limit.

　If we don't cut the softwoods there with proper consideration, they may be gone in less than ten years if we do as we please.

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

　It is precisely because of Grougalia's management of the island that the softwoods are still here in this world today.

　It is not possible to destroy it by granting logging rights.

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

　So, it seems that the country of Bulgaria has decided to fight against our declaration of war.

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

　But it is not a good choice.

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

　I guess they did not understand my kindness in allowing them to pay for the attempt on their lives with the right to cut down the trees.

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

　If they want the softwoods, they will probably go down the river to get them in the future, so I think it would be cheaper to settle for the right to cut down some of them.

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

　Well, okay.

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

　It's up to them to make their own choice.

I'm coming with you this time, Alphonse.

"Ian. Okay. I went to Peria with Elvis, so he's been looking after me, but now Ian's going with me. Well, Elvis is off."

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

"Oh, no. You mean to tell me that Elvis cannot go to conquer the traitors who targeted Master Alphonse?"

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

"It can't be helped. The ai told us that one of the three of us should stay here. If someone strong comes from elsewhere, it's not good if there's no one left who can fight against him.

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

"I understand. If Ai-dono says so, I have no choice but to obey him. Well then, have a safe trip, Mr. Alphonse. And you, Ian, protect Mr. Alphonse.

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

Okay. I'll take care of it."

　Once I returned to the Orient from Peria, I met up with the army that was attacking Bulgaria.

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

　I had gone to Peria as a mercenary company, but this time I was going as a member of the Orient since the country had declared war.

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

　Ian was to accompany them.

　A small number of soldiers could not compete with the overwhelming difference in numbers.

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

　However, even if there was only one person, such as the head of the family, who was extremely powerful, that small number could still be an overwhelming threat.

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

　I am sure of that, since I defeated the main body of the Perian army with only a small number of men.

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

　So we need to be prepared for that.

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

　So one of the three of us was told to stay in the Orient, so Elvis was next in charge.

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

"Mister Alphonse. This time I will go with you. The army is already prepared.

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

"Hmm?　Oliva. Okay. You can move the magic iron ship, too, right?

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

"Of course. We have already prepared and secured the magic stone. We can approach from the water and reach the country of Glugaria at once.

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

"Good. Then, let's go settle this with the archery nation.

　Oliva, who had once been Banagher's assistant and had thought of eventually becoming a senator, was now a fully fledged military man.

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

　He has always had a good head on his shoulders, but recently, perhaps because he has been working out, his back has gotten bigger, and he seems to have improved his physique by one or two times.

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

　Such Oliva commanded the Orient army and boarded the magic iron ships one after another.

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

　Iron ships that can go against the current of the water.

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

　They were heading for Glugaria at maximum speed without risk of capsizing against the current of the river.
