108

Training ground number 1.

There were already five thousand soldiers and two hundred knights lined up there.

From each captured military unit to the flashy weapons.

Although the family had lost a considerable amount of power, looking at the soldiers in the training ground, I didn’t think that way at all.

This must be the power of a prestigious family.

I went up to the stage with Iris, leaving the rest of the group behind. Abel, Craft, and Duke were already seated on the stage.

“Are you here, Kyle?”

“yes.”

“Young-ae, please come this way too.”

After taking our seats on the stage and waiting for a moment, Abel came to the forefront.

It was because of the speech at the inauguration ceremony.

He looked around at the soldiers and knights and slowly began to speak.

“Today, we are going to hit the Prinus.”

At those words, the knights and soldiers murmured.

Today was the first time they had heard about this fact.

This is because, until now, only intermediate-level and higher knights were given separate notice.

Despite such a sudden announcement, there was confusion but no fear in the soldiers’ eyes.

They are the elite among the elite who have undergone countless training sessions and, crucially,

‘If it’s Prinus, it’s a pretty easy place.’

If he had brought up the idea of ​​competing with another noble family, it would have been different, but Prinus was merely a fief ruled by a viscount.

Even though they are soldiers, they must have known very well that the odds were tilted in their favor from the start.

That’s probably why I wasn’t overcome by fear.

“The schedule is simple. Two weeks. You must completely conquer Prinus within that time. All you have to do is demonstrate what you have learned so far in a real battle. Can you do it?”

“Yeaa!”

The soldiers of the training ground shouted a powerful response to Abel’s words.

“When you return, there will be a reward waiting for you. So, don’t die. That’s all.”

After Abel’s brief speech, Commander-in-Chief Craft spoke.

The story was not long.

The soldiers who had quickly finished preparing began to rush out of the gate.

As we waited for a moment, looking at them, the servants came out and handed over the words to the group.

Heehee!

There were five horses in total.

Seron and Erciel.

Because both people were given words.

First of all, Leonhard climbed onto the horse very naturally.

The one who followed was Iris.

Perhaps because she was from a noble family, the way she rode on horseback looked quite natural.

Now it was my turn.

Actually, I would just get on and stop.

There was a separate problem.

Erciel and Seron.

This was because these two people were just staring at the horse’s back as if advertising that they couldn’t ride a horse.

The public opinion is that it is possible for him to be like that, since he was a commoner and had lost his memories.

Erciel was unexpected.

“You’ve never learned horseback riding either?”

“……yes.”

Baron Helaim.

I knew they were a fairly small family, but I didn’t think they would be so small that they wouldn’t even teach horseback riding.

‘what…….’

This is a neighborhood where horses were originally treated as quite precious, so that could be the case.

I thought I should teach you about horseback riding whenever I have time in the future.

While the two people were looking at each other like that.

The gaze of the boy on the horse turned to Erciel.

“Oh, Sister. Are you by any chance not good at horseback riding?”

The look in the eyes of the guy who brought up the subject was full of superiority.

“…….”

The maid bowed her head slightly at those words.

There’s no need to bow your head like a middle-aged man.

I had a lot of magical knowledge.

Of course, he also knew some magic that could help with horseback riding.

I cast a spell after seeing two horses.

Charming.

It was one of the mental support magic of the 1st circle.

The effect was to increase the target’s favorability, but since it was only a 1-circle skill, the effect wasn’t that great originally.

At best, it was a magic that could only be used on monsters such as beasts or goblins with low intelligence.

However, the characteristic of going up there was that the favorability rating was not that high.

The magic that applied the mixed drive method was different.

Heehee!

The moment the magic happens.

The eyes of the horses that started looking at me became hazy.

It was an expression as if he had fallen in love.

‘Ugh.’

A gaze filled with the fierce courtship of a horse.

‘That’s why I didn’t want to use it on animals.’

But there was nothing I could do.

If you didn’t cast the spell first, the horses might run wild.

“Stay still.”

Heeeeeeling!

As if they understood what I said perfectly, the two horses neighed powerfully.

In addition to the charming, we also gave them mental cleaning, and they became even more gentle.

Heehee.

It was a bonus that they let out a languid whine as if they were in a good mood. Now that they had calmed down, it was time to climb onto their backs.

“Both of you, try it.”

At those words, Se-ron looked at the horse’s back with a look of disgust.

“……Are you talking about…… up there?”

“Then you’ll walk? Horseback riding is a must to become a knight. Have you ever seen a knight who can’t ride a horse?”

“……All right.”

Contrary to the public’s bewildered gaze, my personal maid was already on the horse’s saddle.

You’re really fearless.

The way he got on was very immature.

If it were normal, the horses would have gone crazy.

Of course, things are different now.

Despite her inexperienced riding, the horse stood still as if it had been scolded.

As Erciel climbed onto the horse, Seron also seemed determined and stepped onto the saddle.

Eventually, both of them were able to get on the horse without any problems.

“Follow me slowly, Leonhard.”

“Yes, your highness.”

“You two. Come with me and teach me a little about horseback riding. Right now, I’m ok with enchanting the horses, but I can’t keep the enchantment going forever.”

The escort knight nodded at my words.

After lightly climbing onto the horse.

As I approached Iris at the very front, she began to look at me with curiosity.

“That thing just now… was that Charming?”

“you’re right.”

“I know it’s not a magic that has much effect…….”

“Yes, it is magic that uses a mixed driving method.”

At my words, the little boy looked behind him quietly.

After watching the maid riding on the horse as if it were a comfortable bed that did not shake.

He started looking into my eyes with a look of resentment.

“……Please tell me that too.”

“I will decide that after seeing Youngae’s actions.”

“…….”

“Let’s go.”

So Iris and I led the way to the front row.

Craft and Duke.

Now it was time for the two to join forces.

* ? ?* ? ?*

Three days passed like that.

The area where the army was now moving could be said to be almost the edge of the Marquis’ territory.

‘I hope it’s around this point.’

This movement must have been reported to the Count’s ears. He must have thought that it was just a movement for training as usual, but what if it went beyond the boundaries here?

You will realize that something is strange.

It would be too different from usual movements to be considered simple training.

The sky was already getting dark.

Craft, who was moving quietly along the street, looked around at the soldiers.

“I think we’ll have to camp here today. What do the 3rd and 4th princes think?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

The Duke and I nodded at the same time at the old knight’s words. Since we had decisive evidence, there was no reason to rush and advance quickly.

So the soldiers began to prepare for camping.

In an instant, the tents were completed, and smoke from cooking began to rise from inside the barracks. The front row was also filled with white smoke.

It was because Erciel and I were cooking together.

Craft and Duke.

There are five high-ranking knights, including Leonhard, Seron, and Iris.

My maid and I were currently in charge of feeding these twelve people.

‘I didn’t know you’d like it that much,’

After that old knight tasted the food that Erciel and I made on the first day.

It was because, seeing the old man repeatedly exclaiming in admiration and giving a thumbs up, I ended up taking charge of the meals for him and his superior knights.

‘That’s true.’

Craft.

This is the first time in my life that I have seen someone praise food so deliciously.

Thanks to that, I ended up taking care of their meals, but it wasn’t a loss.

It is said that you can become friends with the old knight and other high-ranking knights just by giving them some food.

That was a significant gain.

There will come a day when you will be able to use your increased favorability rating.

The food preparation went very smoothly.

Erciel and me.

This was because both of them had more than basic cooking skills.

After preparing some bread to go with the hot meat stew, I called the group together.

“Please eat.”

“Huh……! The smell is really amazing today too! Thank you, 4th Prince!”

“thank you!”

The senior knights and craftsmen who saw the food expressed their gratitude loudly.

Is it because they are people who have lived rough lives?

The greeting was very warm.

If it weren’t for me, he would have filled his stomach with simple foods like beef jerky, so it was understandable that he would have such an expression of deep emotion.

The little boy sitting in the corner was also drooling at the sight of the stew with lots of meat in it.

“Young-ae, eat quickly. Here it is.”

“……I’ll eat well.”

After finishing the meal like that.

Kraft took out a map.

It was a map depicting the geographical features of the eastern part of the empire.

“The Four Princes.”

“yes.”

“We are passing by now. Where do you think the count will be waiting to meet us?”

In response to the old knight’s question, I pointed to a certain spot on the map without hesitation.

Puerto Prairie.

It was a terrain that took about half a day to walk to Prinus.

“It’ll probably pop out around here. Once we leave the family’s territory, his gaze will be focused on us.”

“Then you will come out to the Puerto Plains?”

“Yes. We’ll probably wait and see for a couple more days, and when we’re sure that they’re really going to advance towards Prinus… there’s a high chance they’ll come out to meet us and block us.”

“Maybe it’s because it’s a grassland, but there are many places to hide. By the way, if that bastard doesn’t come out… have you thought about what to do next?”

“Then I guess we should go to the siege.”

“Siege warfare. If that happens, the casualties will be great.”

well.

The reason I wanted to catch the original work separately was not because I was afraid of damage, but to reduce the hassle.

The walls of Prinus were not high.

‘It was about 3m.’

It was a height that even intermediate knights could reach in one go by jumping hard once.

Even if the knights just fight each other, they are no match for each other, but what if I and Erciel’s buffs are combined here?

The battle situation will become overwhelmingly advantageous, to the point where even the castle walls will collapse in an instant.

All that had to do was deploy elite troops while the knights were running wild on the walls.

Either the Count closes the gates tightly and defends them, or he pops out and goes wild, complaining about persecution or something.

From the moment the Marquis caught him drawing his sword, he could already be considered dead.

I smiled brightly when I saw the craft.

“Siege warfare may be a bit more difficult, but it’s worth it anyway. I’m sure you know a lot about my and Ersiel’s buffs, Lord Craft.”

Kraft nodded quietly at my words.

“It’ll be a little more comfortable if you come out, and even if you don’t, it won’t be hard to eat Prinus.”

“……I understand. For now, we need to move quickly to the Puer Grassland.”

“Yes. If possible, I would like to see his face in three days.”

Three days.

It was the time it took to get to Puerto Prairie. That would be much more comfortable than seeing each other in person four days later.

If I see that bastard’s face in four days.

‘Because we’ll have to fight a siege.’

After the night has passed.

The army has finally left the Marquis’ domain.

They began to advance in earnest towards Prinus.
