19 – Episode 19. Brief Peace (1)

*

The Brans army defeated the army at a rapid pace.

As promised, our army did not pursue the Brans army.

Honestly, there was no way to break the agreement here and just chase them down and stab them in the back, but it was obvious that if they did that, the Lunarien military would not be able to carry out normal diplomacy with any other country in the future, so they didn’t go that far. Didn’t

Other than interfering with Brans’s army, there was nothing we could gain by pursuing it.

More than half of the walls of Zeeland Castle collapsed, and more than 8,000 soldiers were unable to fight –

In conclusion, we succeeded in protecting this castle.

Brance will be busy taking care of Serpina for the time being, so we had a golden opportunity to strengthen our internal capabilities.

And this place – inside the royal castle of Zeeland Castle.

Compared to the royal castle of Annell that I visited, it was quite shabby, but it didn’t seem that bad, perhaps because I felt like I had really arrived at my home.

Here, Luna, the monarch, Gustav, Aaron, and Kane, who were defending different places, were all gathered in one place.

From what I heard, Tifa suffered a serious injury during the war and is currently receiving treatment.

I said as I placed the bag full of gold on the table.

“Three thousand gold.”

After checking the gold, Kane looked at the gold and my face several times with an expression of disbelief and said.

“So… Swen, you went to sign an armistice on the condition of 1,300 gold, made an agreement, and ended up receiving 3,000 gold?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

“How on earth…?”

I spoke calmly to Kane, who was shocked and unable to continue speaking.

“I did some bargaining.”

“No, it’s a bargain, go to sleep… Huh… Really.”

Kane wiped his cold sweat and looked at me.

When he first looked at me, there was no emotion whatsoever.

Is he just a new person? That’s just my impression.

But as time passed, he became wary of me, but he also seemed a little surprised at my abilities –

Now, he was looking at me with eyes full of awe.

“Swen. You are truly amazing. What on earth has an outstanding person like you been doing all this time?”

“I just spent my time doing some pastime.”

“Huh, really? I never thought that in this day and age, there would still be talented people left undistinguished… You really have a long life to see. You are truly amazing, Swen. Your decisions will be yours in the future. There will be no doubt.”

“We were surprised too. They went to sign an agreement with unfavorable terms and instead received money… It’s really amazing.”

“Swen is a very talented person.”

Gustav and Aaron were also supporting me.

I wasn’t the type of person who enjoyed giving plane rides, but since I worked in the Lunarien military, this kind of reaction was good, and not bad at all.

In the future, a brain with 100% intelligence will continue to make various predictions that are correct in the end, even though the process is unknown. It was clear that it would be easier to proceed with the work if you completely trusted me rather than persuading me each time. Peel.

“I thought it would be like this.”

Luna chimed in from next to me.

“Because I… Trusted him. Thank you so much, Swen.”

It was not difficult to read the deep trust in her ruby eyes as she looked at me.

Yes.

More than anything, I felt reassured by the overwhelming support from Monarch Luna.

What I say is absolutely correct, but if the monarch did not listen to my opinion, there was a possibility that a frustrating situation could be created –

It occurred to him that he wouldn’t have to think like that, at least while working under Luna.

To that extent, she trusted my words.

He will probably continue to push me in the future.

Just in case, I typed in my head the question Lunarien first asked me again.

‘Can Runarien Inien become the monarch who will unify the continent?’

The conclusion was the same as before.

The main character of unification was not someone else, but the woman in front of her eyes.

Honestly, even now, I still don’t know how she will become the monarch who will unify this continent-

My predictions are never wrong. She will definitely become a unified monarch.

Until then, stick with her closest associates and return to your original world in a stable manner.

Even in my opinion, it couldn’t have been a very stable other world plan.

‘It’s too easy?’

Oops.

No, no, no.

You should never let down your guard just because things are going well.

No matter how determined the future exists, there is no change in the fact that the current Lunarien County is a weak and insignificant country.

Even if I had managed to survive so far, I didn’t know what trials would remain in the future.

As a result, 4,300 gold came into the hands of our military.

This time, Luna did not use all of her money to save Young Jimin.

She seemed to be prioritizing consolidating internal affairs by recruiting troops, developing commerce, and providing funds for mercenary corps to operate.

In any case, it was a very valuable activity fund for the development of our Zeeland castle.

At first, I thought that I would quickly abandon my last name.

At this point, Zeeland Castle and other nearby castles were all occupied by separate leaders.

While they were unable to expand in the early days when they had no soldiers or capital, other feudal lords took over many empty castles.

The location of this place, being too close to Brans County, was not that good, but it was a bit disappointing that there was no other way than to grow this place.

‘It’s okay. Everything will be fine.’

As long as I am here, we will be able to solve it somehow.

With that in mind, I stood by Luna and assisted her.

* * *

Arriving at Annell Castle, Irene divided her wounded soldiers and ordered supplies for the remaining soldiers, then quickly headed to the royal castle.

Soon after, she was able to reach the royal castle where her lord, Lin Brans, was located.

“Master. Irene Juliet has just arrived.”

“…….”

Lin approached Iren, who was reporting to her.

One step, two steps.

When the distance between two people becomes so close that their noses touch when they fall-

Slap!

“……!!”

Lin suddenly slapped Iren hard on the cheek.

Iren’s cheeks became noticeably red from that single blow.

Her body also stumbled slightly in an unexpected situation –

I quickly regained my balance and straightened up.

“What are you doing? If you had taken over the castle sooner, there wouldn’t have been this humiliation. Why do we need a few more days?”

Rin said, glaring coldly at her Airen.

It is unfair.

Iren himself knew very well that this was absolutely unfair.

But even in these moments, she does not think about her protest even for a single moment.

Instead, she bowed her head deeply and apologized.

“I’m sorry, my lord. I failed to take over the castle due to my shortcomings.”

Just a few more days.

No, if there had been just one more day, the castle would have been taken over.

It could have been explained, but Irene doesn’t bother to make excuses.

“I will accept any punishment.”

“Okay, just report the situation. How many troops are left?”

“Yes. Excluding wounded soldiers, there are about 18,000 people left.”

The siege was fought and even retreated, but only about 5,000 people were reduced.

Furthermore, not all of the 5,000 people were killed, but the number included wounded soldiers as well.

If you look at it objectively, it couldn’t have been a very good result – but even so, Lin couldn’t help but disapprove of Iren.

It felt as if the reason she was actually forced into a humiliating negotiation with Swen was because she couldn’t handle things properly.

“Order the soldiers to prepare for departure immediately. We have to send them to Kelstein Castle.”

“Then the vanguard is-“

Lin harshly cut off Iren’s words.

“Why? Are you asking me to let you out? Are you trying to ruin my work again like this time?”

“…No, there is no shame in it.”

Iren slightly lowered her head.

She meant that she would accept any disposition willingly.

Lin, who noticed her silent signal, sighed and spoke.

“Just in case, you are at least protecting the walls of this place. Do you understand?”

Defense of the castle walls of Annel Castle.

For your information, the area surrounding Annell Castle was all territory of Brans County.

In other words, there was no need to defend the castle walls.

The act of placing generals where they are not needed.

It was like scolding you for being useless, but after Iren nodded, she spoke in a serious tone.

“Yes! I will faithfully carry out your orders.”

“Okay. Let’s go.”

Iren’s figure disappears from sight.

Rin thought as she bit her nails.

‘If you add 18,000…… I’ll be able to somehow defend Kelstein Castle.’

If we gather all the existing troops in Kelstein Castle, the surrounding troops, and the soldiers who have now returned, we will have nearly 40,000 soldiers.

Of course, if you combine the forces from the west and the troops from the south, the number of troops is more than twice that – but it was difficult to bring this side to this side and it took a long time to bring them in.

Considering that it was an overwhelming advantage over a siege war, it was calculated that 40,000 soldiers could sufficiently block 55,000 soldiers.

But.

What if an armistice agreement had not been signed and we had been chased?

If taken broadly, there was a high possibility of losing nearly 8,000 additional soldiers. The soldiers in retreat inevitably lost their combat power.

In addition, the pursuing soldiers belonged to two famous mercenary groups, Raven and Chilean, trained special forces. What he meant was that, rather than taking a broad view, we might have to judge that at least 8,000 people would be lost.

So-

That man, Swen, was right.

This armistice agreement saved the Brans army, which was in an extreme crisis.

I don’t want to admit it, but.

‘…… Phew.’

Rin felt her body tremble.

I wanted to make that man my own right now…… First of all, the urgent priority was to stop the Serpina army’s offensive.

‘I guess I’ll have to go to this battle myself.’

His first brother, Chell, was in the south, and his second brother, Kalinz, was not trustworthy.

Then, it was time for him to step forward as commander-in-chief for the first time in a long time.

‘It’s fun. Serpina. No matter what you think…… ‘I know you can’t even come down to the central part.’

Thinking so, Rin quickly got ready to go.

After the armistice agreement with the Brans army.

Fortunately, each day passed without any major incidents.

A day becomes a week, and a week becomes a month.

A few months of such a peaceful daily life that it felt a little bit boring.

Leave work to the generals and try to ‘predict’ what kind of work should be done.

Even though we lack military power, we can help with the things we can do…….

The appearance of Zeeland Castle was also very different from the first time.

New buildings were erected where the typhoon had swept away, and the streets, which had been not only empty but also gloomy and dreary, were gradually regaining vitality.

Farming, raising livestock……

Zeilland Castle, which was apparently an abandoned land, is transformed into a place where people live.

The people of the territory who witnessed this change with their own eyes unanimously praised Runarien’s benevolence.

When I think back now, it was ‘peace’.

Time passed, and the harvest season arrived.

Me and Luna were walking around the territory to inspect the public sentiment.

Along the vast fields of the territory-

The golden wheat fields were swaying in the wind.

It was the first harvest in Zeeland Castle.

“Farming has gone well.”

Luna nodded her head and said to me.

“It’s all thanks to Youngjimin’s hard work.”

“The people of the territory are all praising Luna’s rule. I think it will be okay for them to slowly realize that they are excellent leaders.”

“Swen is the only one who thinks of me that way. hehehehe… Still, thank you.”

At that time.

Some kind of commotion was heard from beyond.

‘What is it?’

Are you having a festival?

Luna looked at that place and then grabbed my sleeve and asked.

“Hey, over there.”

“Please speak.”

“Would you like to go over there together?”

I looked at Luna’s face as she said that.

Her face was slightly red and she was strangely hesitant, just like a cow.

The patrol is almost over, and my lord wants to go, so what can I do as a servant?

“Is that so?”

“Ah, yes…! Let’s go together!”

Luna’s expression brightened after hearing what I said.

I thought that the two red eyes shining red in the sunlight were like jewels.

We walked together to a place where people were gathered.
