49 – Episode 49. Luna Rien entrusts herself to the Karelian army

As she was plowing her fields and encouraging her farmers, a woman was approaching her.

“Luna, you were here.”

“Ah! Hello, Cecil.”

Cecil Lohengrin.

She is one of the founders of the Karelian army. She was the monarch of Karelia, so impressed by her personality that he donated all of her wealth to her, a member of the Lohengrin family who had built up her wealth for generations. She was an only daughter.

Her elegant light brown short hair and her monocle that seemed to prove her meticulousness went well with her, and she had a gentle personality like her lord, and she was very popular in the Karelian army. .

She was in a wandering state, and she was one of the people who insisted that it was okay for Luna Lien and the others to accept her.

She was quite close to Luna Lien, even if it wasn’t for business reasons.

“How are you? Is work going well?”

“Well… I think all the farmers are doing their best… But the weather is not helping so much, so I’m not sure if we’ll be able to achieve our quarterly goal.”

Even in this day and age, agricultural production has increased dramatically due to the development of various technologies.

If the most important thing, the weather, did not help, we were bound to be in trouble in many ways.

It was said that a year’s farming depends entirely on the sky.

“Luna is working hard, she always comes and goes and everyone is watching. I don’t think you need to worry too much.”

“Now that you say that, I don’t know what to do.”

After Luna bowed and greeted her, she asked carefully.

“But, is there a reason you came looking for me…?”

I understand that Cecil has received a special mission from the monarch of Karelia this quarter, so he will not be able to afford to come here.

It was not difficult to draw the inference that if he showed up, there must be a reason.

“My lord is looking for Mr. Luna.”

“Master?”

Nod.

I didn’t know why he was calling me, but in any case, as a subject, I had no choice but to respond to my lord’s call.

“Okay. I’ll go to the royal castle right now.”

“That’s right. I really want to clear things up with Luna after a long time, but we’re both busy right now… So let’s talk together again when we get the chance.”

“You are always welcome, Cecil.”

After parting ways with Cecil with a smile, Luna spoke to the farmers she was working with.

“Everyone. Since my lord called me, I think I’ll end today’s work here. You can all go home. I’ll finish the work when I return.”

“It’s okay if you don’t come back, Lunarien! Just leave the rest to us! It’s okay if you don’t come back today!”

“No, it’s okay. Just don’t overdo it-“

“Please allow me to work for you, Lunarien!”

“…Everyone…”

Luna hesitated for a moment, moved by the farmer’s words, then bowed her waist 90 degrees and spoke.

“…Then, please take good care of me. I’ll take good care of you tomorrow as well. Everyone, don’t overexert yourself and go in carefully.”

“Please come back!”

The fact that there are generals who say they are sorry, even though there is no need to ask for their circumstances.

She could not bear to notice that this fact was becoming a hot topic among the farmers of this castle.

*

Madelan Castle was a space that was clearly visible as having been built for a very practical purpose, lacking the splendor of a royal castle in a big city.

This was a result of not only the fact that the royal castle itself was planned and built from the beginning to play a minimal role, but also the intention of the current monarch, Makana Karelia, who did not prefer meaningless extravagance.

Luna passed through the now familiar corridors of the royal castle and headed to the throne room in the center.

When we arrived at the throne room-

“Oh, Lord Luna. Welcome.”

Karelia was welcoming me with her smiling face.

The long, dark green hair was beautifully tied up, shaped into a shape, and secured with simple accessories.

Her eyes, which were a little darker than her hair color and seemed to have been mixed with a drop of green ink mixed with black ink, were filled with something similar to kindness and generosity.

Although she didn’t have any fancy decorations, her plain, plain clothes felt very elegant just because she was wearing them.

She definitely had the aura of a monarch.

An aura of warm leadership that encompasses everyone, different from a monarch who proves his charisma through coercion and dominance.

The woman standing next to her, with short brown hair and looking at us with a slightly cold expression, is none other than Vanessa Trinity.

She was the national counselor of the Karelian army, perfectly filling in what Karelia was lacking.

“Lunarien Inian, I have just arrived after receiving a call from my lord.”

Karelia said, gesturing to Luna who got down on her knees and bowed.

“It’s okay to take it easy. Yes, I think I’ve asked you to do farming. What do you think the work is like?”

“I’m working hard… But I don’t think I’ll be able to achieve my goal due to my lack of ability.”

After hearing her words, Karelia tilted her head.

“Lack of ability? I know that even if you don’t say that. I know full well that the weather hasn’t been kind these past few days. I hope you don’t blame yourself too much.”

“But…”

“No, no. Bury it. I didn’t call you today to talk about this for a long time.”

After saying that, she continued her words in a slightly serious tone.

“I have something I would like to ask of Lord Luna today.”

“Are you asking me a favor?”

“It’s about Tepelo Castle. Luna, you know it well, right?”

Vanessa was shocked for a moment when she heard those words, but Luna didn’t even notice that.

“When you say Tepelo Castle… Do you mean the castle adjacent to the border with Ohana County?”

“I know very well. Lord Luna, your friends Lord Tifa and Lord Kane also belong there.”

When she defected to the Karelian army with 3,000 soldiers.

Luna belonged to Madlan Castle, the capital, and Kane and Tifa, who came together, belonged to Tepelo Castle and were separated.

Since then, we haven’t seen each other once because we had a lot of work to do.

Although the war did not break out, Luna’s honest feelings were that she still felt uneasy about sending her colleagues to the border and not being able to stay in the capital.

“Yes. Not long ago, the castle lord Carlos wanted to step down from his position due to old age and health reasons. I would like to respect his will to devote himself to our military even at that age. Therefore, the Tepelo Castle “Seongju is currently in a vacuum.”

“Is that so…?”

“What do you think?”

“Uh… So, I think Prince Carlos must have really had a hard time…”

“And?”

“And what do you mean? That’s… Um, I’m really sorry, but I don’t know what to say…”

“……Huh.”

Karelia laughed a few times because Luna’s reaction was funny.

“Lord Luna is a truly naive person. I think he would feel more comfortable speaking directly to someone like you.”

“……?”

“Lord Luna, please become the lord of Tepelo Castle from this moment on.”

Only then did Luna realize why he had called him and became four hundred people in surprise.

“My lord, my lord. The sudden position of lord of the castle is too much for me-“

“I’m sorry to interrupt you, but my feelings haven’t changed. I want Lord Lunarien to play in bigger waters. I don’t want that ability to be wasted here in the capital.”

“Haona…”

The very moment when I tried to refuse the position of Seongju again with appropriate words.

A voice that she could never forget quickly passed through Luna’s mind.

“Master! Stay healthy! And if the opportunity comes, don’t miss it! I will definitely return to your side!”

‘Ah…….’

Swen.

Her first book, buried deep in her heart, that she can never forget.

The voice of the man who said, ‘If you trust me, I will put the world in your hands’…… Why did this cross my mind right now?

Becoming one of the castle lords of Karelia County.

This could have been an opportunity.

Becoming a castle lord meant managing the territory in a narrow way, and if the person managing the territory did well, he would inevitably gain the support of the people of the territory.

And, just in case…… Depending on the situation, it was possible to rebel and raise an army.

Isn’t this a much easier method than raising an army in an empty space with no one around?

Then, isn’t this an opportunity?

But still, her mind was not at ease.

As the saying goes, ‘easy raising of an army through treason’, but wasn’t it ultimately a slap in the face to Karelia, which had taken over him?

Luna never wanted to do that. It’s true that she wants to take the world in her hands, but she can’t betray someone who trusts her like this-

After she thinks about it, she realizes again why she lost her country.

‘No…’ … You have to be cool…… I made a cold-hearted decision, sacrificing Swen…… You can’t run away from responsibility anymore…… !’

Yes.

Even if there was no betrayal, there was no difference in the fact that this was an opportunity.

She swore to him that if the opportunity comes, she will definitely take it. So, Luna said without hesitation, nodding her head.

“…I will obey my lord’s command.”

“Oh, thank you. I’m counting on you.”

Karelia stood up from her seat and stretched out her hand.

“Lunarien Inian. You are the lord of Tepelo Castle from today. Stop all your duties right now and immediately go to Tepelo Castle and fulfill your duties as the castle lord.”

“I will do as you command, and I will do my best not to offend Karelia.”

The seat of the castle lord of Tepelo Castle.

I didn’t know if this was an opportunity or a poisoned chalice.

She did not hesitate any longer.

The moment she parted ways, she tried to fulfill the request of her one and only agent……

She fiercely grabbed the opportunity that came her way.

Everything about her was for believing in herself, and for her strategy that she believed in.
