nI have evolved the skills that are available, consuming 5 SP each and I have also improved my equipment which I got from Yagan Family as spoils of war and Moonlight Family as presents. My potions have been prepared as well, so everything’s ready, yes?

nRena: “Shall we go?”

nYamada: 『－－－－!』

nKageyama: 『Uuu!』

nAzabu: 『……! (*Bassa bassa*!)』

nSanta: 『Gaa!』

nInoue: 『Iiii!』

nEveryone is motivated as well, I see?

nWell then, time to depart.

nFeudal Lord: “Sigh…”

nI can only do nothing but sighing from my mouth. The cause of this is something from about half a month ago.

nIt was the day after the migrants surged in with great numbers just like the oracles said… The day when that tragedy happened.

nSubordinate: “…Your excellency, why don’t you rest for a little while?”

nFeudal Lord: “Muh, I can’t do something like that.”

nNot good, I’ve even made my subordinate worried about me as well. As a person who is standing on top, I have to act more grandly and keep my calm even if I’m anxious about something….

nFeudal Lord: “In any case, you still haven’t found the culprit yet, knight captain?”

nKnight Captain: “Yes, we had been searching for the culprit with everything we have, but we only manage to found out that the culprit’s gender is a woman and has a black hair….”

nFeudal Lord: “I have known about that and she even killed the bishop, Chronos-dono as well. The temple had been pressuring me really hard about this….”

n(TL Note: Oh my, so the bishop was a man then…?)

nEven without that, it hurts for me to see Chronos-dono got killed both individually and as a lord.

nChronos-dono was a man of character who even though he had climbed up to the Cardinal position, he still moved to this remote region and started again as a bishop to save a large number of people. I heard that there are many people in the capital who worship Chronos-dono and had been taken cared by him.

nHe treated everyone indiscriminately, and he was like a walking library due to his knowledge… I was also taken care of when I just inherited the feudal lord position….

nAnd to top it all off, Bishop Chronos was the sole revival magic user in this remote region. The death of that person is synonymous with the loss of a thousand lives of the ordinary people, and that loss is immeasurable….

nKnight Captain: “But, we had been working non-stop since that day. The soldiers below are also worried about Your Excellency’s health, so why not take a rest for at least a cup of tea?”

nFeudal Lord: “However…. nevermind, let’s go with that.”

nKnight Captain: “I see……”

nWhen I said that I would like to rest, the Knight Captain, Alexei Vallenceーーーmy sonーーーblatantly released a sigh of relief.

nThis damn boy.

nFeudal Lord: “You should sit down as well.”

nAlexei: “But……”

nFeudal Lord: “It’s fine, don’t you want to hear your miserable father’s idle complaints?”

nAlexei: “That’s…… I understand, father.”

nLet’s throw away the lord and retainer mask and spend time as parent and child in this short amount of time.

nFeudal Lord: “So, how is it? Have you found a good partner?”

nAlexei: “Father, that is……”

nFeudal Lord: “If you don’t find one quickly, I will decide it for you instead, you know?”

nAlexei: “Please choose someone who can give the greatest benefit to our family.”

nFeudal Lord: “What’s up with that? That’s so boring…”

nEven when I teased him, he still gave me a serious reply. What an uninteresting fellow. Though, it might look cute if it’s my wife, but when it comes to my son….

nAlexei: “…Father, what are you thinking right now?”

nFeudal Lord: “Hmmph, I’m thinking that you’re lacking an interesting side.”

nAlexei: “Good grief, father doesn’t get bored on teasingー”

nMessenger: “I’m very sorry for interrupting your talk! There’s an emergency call!”

nFeudal Lord: “ーーーWhat happened? State the emergency.”

nThe parent and child’s conversation stopped there as a messenger came and brought in an emergency call while we were talking, hence we return back being the lord and the knight captain who serves me from here on.

nMessenger: “Yes! Just recently, several guard stations were bombed simultaneously, and some people invaded the noble area as well at the same time!”

nWhat did you say? What in the world is happening…? Several guard stations were bombed simultaneously and there were intruders as well? How many enemies are there exactly? It should be a lot of enemies as they can attack the guard stations at the same time, so it might be better to watch over those stations.

nAlexei: “Send the ones who are safe in their guard stations to assist them immediately! After that, call those who are off duty and who are taking a break as well! The amount of enemy is still unclear, so pretend that they have the same strength as or even more than us! The guards and patrols will stand by in the rear expecting another assault and the imperial guards will intensify their patrolling!”

nWhile I was thinking about the assault, my son… no, the knight captain was giving instructions one after another… I would like to avoid dispersing the military strength in a situation where the information is not enough, but it can’t be helped as the guard stations were attacked simultaneously and the noble district was invaded at the same time as well, huh…?

nFeudal Lord: “And, tell the ones who are in the noble district to advise the residents for evacuation and don’t ever leave the house. It’s fine to use messengers, so go!”

nMessenger: “Understood!”

nWhen I gave the additional instructions, the messenger immediately went out.

nFeudal Lord: “…and you as well. In the unlikely event, don’t hesitate to attack me.”

nAlexei: “…..I understand.”

nUnlike the tragedy half a month ago, this is clearly an act of terrorism, an assault with purposeーーーthat is, war.

nI want to be spared with street fighting, you see……………but even if I said that, it’s unavoidable, I guess……….
