On this day, Richard, Reilly, and their followers gathered in the conference room.

"Is there anything that needs to be taken care of during this time?" asked Richard.

Erin is most familiar with the situation in Farrow, and she is recognized as the lord's wife, so she is the first spokesperson: "The power of the Sequoia Kingdom is empty, and the royal family and the three major dukes have been hit hard, so there are many people who are ready to move. In addition, the Iron Triangle Empire also shows signs of meddling in the internal affairs of the kingdom, and our people have clashed with each other on the border several times, and they should be testing our reality. In addition, the church in Sinai sent a notice asking us to surrender the Dark Sanctuary. ”

Richard's face showed a hint of murderous aura, and he said: "Didn't the gods issue an oracle? The nobles who have made a meritorious crusade against the invaders are all protected by the gods, and no one is allowed to invade their territory for a year. ”

"Of course, the Iron Triangle Empire will not act openly. Reilly spread his hands and said, "If I'm not mistaken, it's just some 'private act.'" ”

Richard said lightly: "It seems that I have to find a time to fight the Iron Triangle Empire, they always can't remember the lesson." Wait until I'm done with Norland......"

"Don't wait that long. Reilly smiled and said, "Since you don't have time to pay attention to those guys, let me teach them how to behave." ”

"Don't make a big fuss. Richard frowned and said, "It's not time for a full-scale war yet. ”

"Don't worry, I'll control the pace. Reilly said confidently.

"How do you reply from the church?" asked Erin.

"Let them go. Reilly said lightly: "The church in Sinai is not to worry, at least not beyond what I can handle. ”

Erin nodded and said, "The third thing, Toffler, the heir of Duke Wolf, has not been able to officially inherit the title of duke until now. ”

Richard was silent for a moment before he said, "Why?" Like most people, he thought Duke Greywolf was dead.

"Someone intervened, it seems that they want to divide the territory of the Duke of Blue Wolf. Erin pointed to the map and said, "It is said that the royal family is very moving. ”

Richard nodded and said, "Okay, I see." What do you think about this?"

Although he was asking for everyone's opinions, he was mainly looking at Reilly and Minnie. The rest of the followers are militant and not very good at dealing with political matters.

"Let them make trouble. Reilly smiled and said, "After dividing up the dukedom, it's time for the bloodstained lands." ”

"Oh, those people still dare to beat my idea?" Richard's voice was full of murderous energy.

"In the battle against the invaders, the royal expeditionary force was completely annihilated, but it was only 10,000 men. Reilly spread his hands and said, "And the loss on your side is more than fifty thousand." The most important thing is that the lord to whom you are allegiant, Duke Blue Wolf, has fallen!"

"So what?" said Richard lightly, "They think they can eat me?"

"The benefits of the Bloodstained Lands are too great, and it's normal for someone to be red-eyed. Moreover, they also have the big tree of the royal family to rely on. Reilly said meaningfully, "I just pushed them." ”

"Huh?" Richard was stunned for a moment, and then showed a shocked and angry expression: "Reilly, you deliberately didn't send troops?!"

At the time of Richard and Raymond's decisive battle, Rayleigh did not send a powerful puppet army, but only supported twelve Knights of the Dawn. Richard originally thought that something had happened to his territory, so he didn't send reinforcements. Now it seems that Reilly actually released water on purpose!

"That's right. Reilly said calmly, "I just want to weaken you and the Duke of Blue Wolf, so that some people can jump out." ”

"Bastard!" Richard grabbed Reilly's collar and roared, "What do you think of human life?!What !!do you think of human life?!" If Reilly's puppet army joins the coalition, Richard is even sure that the loss will be limited to less than 20,000. However, there are no ifs and ifs in reality. In order to complete his strategy, Reilly hid the puppet legion, which indirectly caused the death of tens of thousands of warriors!

"Human life is human life. Reilly shook his hand away and said, "I will not regard human life as gold, nor human life as dung." For me, killing people is just a means. ”

“...... You have the power to save a lot of people, but don't you feel bad in your heart when you watch them die?" asked Richard after a moment of silence.

"No, it won't. Reilly shook his head and said, "I don't feel sorry for the dead pigs when I eat pork." ”

"How can a man be compared to a pig?"

"In my eyes, all life is equal. ”

“...... This is not an idea that humans would have. ”

"I'm not mortal. ”

In the end, the argument between the two was still settled. Richard returned to Norland with a splash and quicksand, and Reilly went into the lab again.

Before Richard left, Reilly gave him a sealed box, which contained the death of life.

――――――――――――――――――――

On this day, Reilly sat on a dirt hill next to the Blue Water Oasis, facing a grave. The tomb was rudimentary, with only a crudely made stone tablet with an epitaph inscribed: "Here is my most sincere comrade-in-arms, Duke Billier, the Blue Wolf, and I have laid him to rest here in order to invite him to witness the beginning of a new era, Richard Akmund." ”

Due to the Duke's own insistence, his body was not returned to the family, and the weapons and armor he had used were left here.

An old man with white hair staggered over and sat quietly in front of Reilly. When he saw the tombstone, there was an imperceptible sadness in his eyes.

"Reilly, are you looking for me?" asked the old man calmly.

"Just for you to meet the Duke. Reilly handed over a bottle of wine and said, "Drink some, Palin!"

Perrin took the bottle and glanced at the tombstone, he suddenly tilted his head and poured the whole bottle of spirits down his throat! The next moment, he broke the bottle and coughed vigorously on the ground. Soon after, the cough turned into crying.

Reilly didn't comfort him, just watched quietly.

At some point, Perrin sat down in front of Reilly, his face flushed.

"Palin, follow me. ”

Reilly led Perrin into his laboratory to the altar where Duke Greywolf lived.

"W-This is ......" Perrin looked horrified at the statue behind the altar. With his knowledge, he could naturally see what Reilly was doing.

"As you can see, I'm helping Duke Blue Wolf become a god. Reilly said with a smile.

“...... What can I do?" Perrin knew that Reilly wasn't going to bring him here for no reason.

"I think you can be the duke's pope. ”

"But I didn't know how to run a church. Perrin said with a frown.

"You don't need to understand that. Reilly pointed to the statue of Duke Blue Wolf and said, "What he needs now is a pope he can trust." ”

"I see. ”

"By the way, how is Toffler?"

"You mean my third brother?" Perrin thought for a moment and said, "In my impression, he is a good man. If he inherits the title, then the people in the realm will be happier, even happier than when his father was there. Father...... Too many battles have been fought, which is not good for the development of the territory. However, Toffler's maternal family is too weak, and he himself is still young, although his father's will is for him to inherit the title, I think it is difficult for him to sit in this position. ”

"It doesn't matter. Reilly smiled and said, "I'll help him get this seat." ”
