The Young Lord Who Was Disengaged Focuses on His Territory - The Young Lord Who Was Disengaged Focuses on His Territory chapter 96

96 – Episode 96 Food Independence

After the first agenda,

The next agenda started right away.

“The following is about the Order of the Moon.”

The Church of the Moon was very angry about what happened in Ireland.

Didn’t the Counts of Valois move to punish Elwin?

“Didn’t we decide to skip the Paonia incident?”

“That’s true, but it looks like Elwynn’s followers have no intention of forgiving him.”

The saint let out a small sigh.

‘Obviously, the victim is an Elwin believer.’

Cult of the Moon.

To be a servant of God,

My mind is too narrow.

I am very greedy.

I don’t know how to forgive.

A lot of negative sentences came to mind.

“Elwynn believers and Ireland must be protected.”

He is like a ray of light in the declining Earth Church.

You can never give up.

“We are linking up with other churches to prevent the Moon Church from moving.”

The majority of the Holy Royal Empire was controlled by the Moon Church.

Is that the effect?

There were many times when the remaining denominations linked up.

Especially, when it comes to stopping the Moon Church like now, we actively gathered our strength.

“However, if you move the noble like in this duel, it will be difficult to stop it.”

Separation of church and state in the Holy Royal Empire.

Politics and religion fight in their respective fields.

Nobles fight with other nobles and take away their interests.

Denominations steal believers from other denominations through evangelism.

Cracks began to appear in those separated areas.

This was when the Moon Church secured the majority of believers.

The Empire’s separation of church and state is part of the Moon Church.

If you wear it on your ear, it is an earring. If you wear it on your nose, it is a nose ring.

When it is advantageous for them, they advocate separation of church and state, and when it is disadvantageous, they intervene in politics.

Just like they attacked Elwin using the Valois Count family.

The problem is that it is difficult to block if it moves so secretly.

The Church of the Moon will say that they did not do it.

“Even the nobles can’t be stopped. “We only prevent the Moon Cult from moving directly.”

From Noble mtl dot com

Unfortunately, there is only so much the Earth Church can do.

The saint closed her eyes and prayed to Thera.

‘Please protect Elwin believer.’

Western border of Frontier Territory.

After completing the removal of demonic energy in the new village, I came here.

“Is this your first monster hunt using gunpowder weapons? Hans, are you excited too?”

“Of course. “Lord So.”

Phalanx 1,500.

Shield Soldier 400.

200 Musketeers.

+ Mercenary, Hunter, Priest.

The reason we gathered here is

This is to occupy the Great Plains of the troll area discovered by the hunter team.

Building a city there would be more advantageous for food production than building ten villages.

“If everyone is ready, let’s leave.”

“I understand. “All troops march!”

The hunters set off as an advance team,

The main unit followed behind.

Entering the troll area,

When thirty minutes had passed,

One hunter has returned.

“There are six trolls ahead.”

“Lure them here.”

“I understand.”

Hunter left for the front again.

Meanwhile, he prepared for battle.

The musketeers face the front,

The phalanx soldiers lined up behind them.

The flanks were guarded by shield soldiers.

“Inon, mercenaries, wait until given orders.”

“Yes.”

Through this operation, we plan to find out whether ordinary soldiers can kill large monsters.

After a while,

A troll has appeared on the front lines.

“Aiming the musketeer.”

“Salvo fire!”

Ta-ang!

Ta-ang!

There is a huge noise,

The troll stopped moving.

‘Are you surprised by the sound? Or did you kill him?’

1 Second. 2 Seconds. 3 Seconds.

The trolls, who were standing still as if dead, moved again only after 3 seconds.

Thump. Thud. Thud.

Trolls rushed in at high speed.

“The musketeers retreat. Blessings from the priest!”

The musketeers retreat behind the phalanx,

Meanwhile, the priest blessed the phalanx.

The body of the phalanx was engulfed in white light.

Quang! Quang!

The troll swung a huge club towards the phalanx.

“Oh… You’re holding on?”

It is a phalanx that can withstand a knightly assault.

Compared to that, the troll’s charge was much easier to deal with.

‘I can survive as long as I have a fuse. The problem is the attack…’

While the phalanx was blocking, the musketeer finished reloading.

“A musketeer. “Aim for the troll’s head.”

In human-to-human combat, it is difficult for musketeers to fire from the rear.

This is because only direct shooting is possible.

However, it is different if the opponent is a large monster.

Because they were bigger than humans.

“Fire!”

Ta-ang!

Ta-ang!

Three trolls collapsed.

Kuung.

The remaining trolls were also killed after reloading.

“Lord So, I killed a troll with an ordinary soldier!”

“Congratulations. Lord Su!”

“Congratulations!”

Common sense in this world is that ordinary soldiers cannot catch large monsters.

If the training was not good, it would be difficult to defeat the orcs.

“Everyone, calm down. But with trolls.”

Phalanx.

Gunpowder weapons.

Priest’s blessing.

It would be strange if you did all this and still lost to the troll.

I approached the fallen troll corpse.

Scars were visible all over the body.

“Dig out this place.”

I cut the scar and found a bullet lodged in it.

‘Did it penetrate the leather? ‘Couldn’t it penetrate?’

There were more than twenty scars on one troll.

In other words, twenty bullets were lodged in the body.

‘But it still moved. ‘Is the problem compatibility?’

He recovered in an instant thanks to the troll’s excellent regenerative ability.

The troll was killed within a few minutes of the first shot.

But wasn’t it already healed?

After completing the body search,

Moved to the troll head.

‘I guess the autograph will be here.’

“Dissect the troll’s head.”

The mercenary opened the troll’s head, and about a dozen bullets came out from inside.

Most of it was lodged in the skull, and only a portion reached the brain.

After checking the troll, I stood up.

“Take care of monster byproducts. After that, we advance.”

The march begins again,

This time we encountered five trolls.

“Aim gunshot!”

“Shot at the troll’s head!”

Ta-ang!

Ta-ang!

I aimed for the head from the beginning.

This is because it was not easy to kill it by attacking its body.

But,

‘Not a single one fell down?’

Like the first battle, the trolls engaged in close combat with the phalanx,

In the meantime, I was able to kill him by firing additional shots.

We dissected the troll head again and were able to find the problem.

1) Low accuracy.

2) Weak penetrating power.

There has been no problem with accuracy so far.

Because, if you shoot at more than a thousand enemies, you will most likely get hit.

However, it was not enough to target the troll’s head from a distance.

Next is penetration power.

Guns boast the best penetrating power among weapons in this world.

Because it had higher penetration power than not only a bow but also a crossbow.

The problem is that it is not enough to penetrate the tough leather and bones of large monsters.

‘There’s a lot of room for improvement.’

After completing the gun testing,

Even mercenaries were used to subdue the trolls.

Thanks to that, we were able to arrive at the Great Plains area before long.

‘This is the place my uncle told me about.’

It is definitely spacious.

Except for the Plain, I have never seen a plain this size on the Frontier.

“This is the place. A place where a new city will be built.”

Cult of the Moon.

Council of Cardinals.

“The saint was angry.”

The other cardinals bowed their heads at the words of the first cardinal.

Looking at those people, the first cardinal continued.

“Ireland was a long-term plan. But in the end it failed.”

Decades of planning went to waste in an instant.

Someone must take this responsibility.

“It has been decided to dismiss the 13th cardinal in charge of the Irish development plan.”

Rumbling.

The 13th Cardinal got up quickly and his chair fell.

“Bah… But First Cardinal!”

“This is what the saint decided. She should become a high-ranking priest and carry out her duties.”

The 13th Cardinal could no longer argue with the word saint.

“I understand.”

Internal responsibility rested with the 13th Cardinal.

The dismissal of a cardinal-level person would be sufficient.

“The following is Elwin’s disposition for disturbing us. 9Th Cardinal.”

The 9th Cardinal stood up with a nervous expression.

“The method using the Count of Valois failed. Sorry.”

“This incident has made the name of the denomination ridiculous. “You know that, right?”

“Sorry!”

The First Cardinal smiled gently.

“The past cannot be helped. However, Elwin must be eliminated unconditionally. If it doesn’t work once, twice. If that doesn’t work, you can try ten times. “This is the saint’s will.”

“I will definitely hold Elwin responsible!”

She shouted loudly and sat down.

At that moment,

The First Cardinal’s expression hardened.

“What are you doing?”

“Yes?”

“Are you going to attend the meeting leisurely? “I guess the 9th Cardinal has a lot of free time?”

“Sin… I’m sorry.”

The 9th Cardinal quickly got up from his seat.

The first cardinal added something to him.

“The saint is strict in her rewards and punishments. If you punish Elwin, you will be rewarded handsomely. If she fails, she will punish.”

“I will keep this in mind!”

The 9th Cardinal leaves,

The meeting started again.

“The next item on the agenda is the election of the vacant 13th cardinal. Everyone, please recommend a candidate. A total of five candidates will be selected, and at the end, the saint will make the final decision.”

The quiet conference room began to become noisy.

.

.

After leaving the conference room, the 9th Cardinal gathered the high-ranking priests under him.

Wow!

The cardinal hit the priest standing on the far left in the face.

Wow! Wow!

I hit every single person in order.

In between, there are male and female priests.

There were various old and young priests,

The cardinal didn’t care about anything.

Wow!

Only after slapping the last priest did he return to his original position.

“Use all means and methods to defeat Elwin. Do you understand!?”

“I understand!”

“I understand!”
