　After Altia's marriage, I worked even harder than before on the development of the city of Maust.

　The population had grown more than I had imagined, and I had to expand the area of the town beyond my original plan.

　As a countermeasure, we decided to expand the city to the vicinity of the castle on the hill where I am now holding my political office.

　However, since it is practically difficult to construct a detailed canal to that area, we decided to divide the city from the river side by a large horizontal canal, and to designate the river side as the river town and the hill side as the hill town. In the big picture, they are one city and two cities side by side.

　Finally, after about nine months of building the castle, I moved to the castle of Maust.

　Normally it is connected to the castle by a bridge, but if you drop the bridge, it becomes a fortress floating completely in the river.

　First of all, I gather my vassals in the hall of the new castle.

　It is a much larger space than the castle of Navre, but it still does not look so spacious since the number of my vassals has increased.

"Gentlemen, from today this is the center of all our political, economic and other affairs. You may not be used to it yet, but you will grow to love it. At least there is no place where we can beat the castle of Navre in terms of construction."

　The vassals are made up of men from all over the land. There are some vassals who have been in the Nevre family for generations, but they are not so numerous as to constitute a majority.

"Now, let me tell you about one of my goals. You can still laugh at my delusions of grandeur. But I intend to make that fantasy a reality. I have been planning to acquire this much land since I ruled only three villages. What I'm going to do is not much different from that.

　After a short pause, I ramble on.

"The royal family is currently in a state of confusion. The royal lineage is divided into two branches, both of which have powerful retainers and powerful families who are repeatedly fighting for the capital. As a resident of the Kingdom of Thirlwil, I am truly saddened. So--"

　You probably think that half of them think that they are puppets to the king to seize power.

　Of course, it will not be an easy road, but my territory has already increased sixfold since I took over my house.

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

　If I can increase it six more times from now, there won't be many forces that can defeat me.

I expect you to work as hard as you can for that purpose. I will give you tough assignments, but I will also give you as many rewards as I can. It is not surprising that some of you will be the ones who will turn not one county, but an entire prefecture into a landmine. Work with that in mind. Let's end this by saying a few words together.

　--The special ability [Spirit of the High King] is activated. As long as a person in this profession acts as the High King in the castle of the High King, the aging process slows down drastically, including his relatives.

　I heard you got something else.

　Does that mean that his relatives will also be his wife? I'll be thankful if I can keep Serafina and Raviara's good looks.

　--You should be more happy that you can keep your youth. You're a man without a soul.

　We have more important things to do than that. First we must unify the prefectures. We'll take the three remaining counties in the north.

　--Where most of the small lords are gathered. Let's see how you do.

"Among the three counties not under my command is an uncooperative viscount. I will attack them and destroy them. Let me make this clear. Be thorough! Don't let any of the men in the fortress live!"

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

"Count, may I have your confirmation?"

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

　Noen asked. Noen was a well-seasoned warrior in his mid-thirties.

"This time, the enemy is located near a village, so it is possible that some of the neighbors have fled, making it difficult to distinguish them from the soldiers. In that case--"

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

"You can kill anyone in the fort."

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

　I replied simply.

"I have already sent word not only to the lords, but also to the villages. <Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, sir. If you can confirm that, that's all that matters.

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

　Noen nodded.

"So, the way to take down a fortress, do you want to surround it slowly and try to wear out the enemy?　If it were a set strategy, that would be the strategy."

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

"What do you think I've gathered you all for?　Attack them with force and drop them."

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

"Wow, okay. ......"

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

　Noen nodded, a little fearful this time.

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

"Since you still don't seem to understand what I'm trying to do, let me explain it to you. If I wipe out all the enemies in the first battle at once, what will happen to those who are waiting behind us?"

　The old general Sivik said as he stepped forward.

Many of them are too afraid to fight. If they are from the peasantry, they will try to escape.

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

"That's what I mean. If you show the difference of power in the first battle, the enemy will soon submit. This is wishful thinking, but I believe that if we can win the first battle, we will be able to pacify the enemy lords without another war.

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

　So we will crush the first stronghold, even if it takes some doing.

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

　I will remind them that my forces are qualitatively different from those of the lords before me.

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

"Besides, prolonging the war will bring more troublesome enemies. I hope you won't let that happen."

"You are Colt Lentland, in the province of Nagouri."

　After all, Sivik has a lot of experience and is very quick-witted.

"That's what I mean. They are sending troops to help us in the name of rescuing their lords.

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

　Originally, the lords of the three remaining counties were friendly with the Lentlands of Nagouri. That was the security for the small lords.

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

"From the beginning, I never set out to unite the provinces by destroying the minor lords. My goal is to destroy the Lentlands of Nagouri. This war is only the first step.

　The soldiers seemed surprised at these words.
