Episode 38

##038

Leopold had not thought that his family had grown since it had been a while since he had been kidnapped.

Anyone in the same situation would think so.

“Nominally, it is a gift to the Empress. yo. this. You will be very satisfied.”

After saying that, Rian handed the baby statue to Seina.

She carefully picked up the baby statue, set it on the ground, and said a prayer.

ugh~

It sounds like something is hitting your ear.

It seemed to be hallucinations, and it sounded like singing.

It gets clearer as time goes on.

-Spring is coming. spring is coming soon Children, get ready for spring. Now the cold winter is over and spring is here. Spring is coming to us

A calm but cozy feeling… this… … .

“Because it’s not!!!”

puck!!

Lian ran up and kicked the baby statue in the face.

Then, the song suddenly stopped.

in the gap.

“Eos, mother goddess who presides over all springs. Please wait a little longer. The long winter is still over… … .”

Seina denied it and soothed the baby statue.

I think it’s a fantastic collaboration between a whip and a carrot.

Squeeze.

Dew formed on the face of the distorted baby statue.

“Crying because you got hit by one… This is why they are babies. After~”

Ryan barely sighed.

After all, Seina, who worships the god of war, had limits in suppressing the power of the baby statue by herself.

Tangle, the god of war, is indeed a god with many flaws.

“hey! grandfather.”

Lian went straight to the village chief.

“west… Captain… !! Please have mercy. It was never an intentional rebellion. They are ignorant bastards.”

Villagers could be seen crawling on the ground around them.

Fortunately, the pirates didn’t handle it badly, so no one died.

“I know. Things are much worse than that.”

Very skin bones made a wound.

Dark circles under the eyes are barely visible.

“I couldn’t even go out to sea to catch fish. Even if you want to go upstairs… … .”

It is a fishing village that can only be built by farming in the fields.

Because the field farming was also salty, there were not many crops to grow and the yield was low.

I have to go to the city to get grain, but I couldn’t because of the baby statue.

at last. They had to survive on only a small amount of fish.

“Uncle Sebas.”

“Did you find it? Captain.”

“yes. Take half of the supplies back to town. And tell Mr. Cooker to cook and feed the villagers.”

“yes… … ?!”

Sebas’ head tilted slightly to the side.

He’s usually dignified, but he doesn’t seem to understand orders now.

No matter how gentlemanly he may appear, a pirate is a pirate.

“I think we should do some relief work.”

The pirates were not plundering, but were doing relief work.

Heaven and earth will open.

“For pirates, relief efforts are kidnappings. Captain.”

Yes.

Pirates have a duty to do when they meet the poor villagers.

Kidnapping and selling into slavery. That is the highest mercy and relief work bestowed on them.

“I am an aristocrat from Eili Island. This land is also part of Airy Island. what. Breaking down the pier also bothers me a bit.”

“hmm… If the captain wants it, I will. However, I will deduct some of the cost of the supplies taken out from the captain’s activity expenses.”

‘eww… Salty.’

“Maybe I won’t have to take it out of my own money. There will be supplies again for free.”

Perhaps if left alone, a third of the village would starve to death.

At least that’s about it because I came to this town in the beginning.

When I played the game, it was almost like a ghost town.

aaa!!!

As the food was distributed, the villagers cheered.

To Lian, who was looking down on it from the top of the deck.

“bantling. Did you decide to become a hero?”

The navigator approached and asked.

His eyes were tinged with a faint smile.

“You know that.”

“yes. It looks like you intend to use the people here as guides. Are you thinking of finding the vice-captain’s land?”

“what. There is no such thing as a free lunch.”

The vice-captain’s hometown, Baron Tramall, is not far from here.

This is why they are generous to the residents of this place.

“ruler. Let’s go now. It’s been a long time.”

“I’ll go in first and tell you.”

The navigator put his hands behind his back and entered the cabin.

After a while.

Ding~ Ding~

I heard the ringing of the bell announcing the return.

“What? I don’t know, but let’s go… … !?”

“Oohhhhh???”

Returning like a pirate was quick. Even more empty-handed.

The basics of looting depend on quick disembarkation and embarkation, so it was natural.

“Captain. Personnel check is over.”

“Yes. Let’s go now.”

At Sebas’ report, Rian grabbed the back of the chair and naturally turned the crystal ball.

“Tiri-ri-ri-ri-ri-ri-ri-ri~”

while making a backing sound through the mouth.

cooong!

The Going Misha, which had been entering the village for a long time after destroying the pier, began to slowly move backwards.

From the point of view of the residents, it would have been normal to pour out insults, but they cheered.

“hurray!!! Long live Count Ryan Leon!!!”

He chanted Lian’s real name without saying that he was a pirate or a pirate crew.

In particular, he even informed me of his last name.

I don’t have the title of count, but everyone called me count.

Lian’s survival will already be known through this war.

Sooner or later, the news will reach the Duchy of Brittany.

It’s not too far from the place where the naval battle took place.

“From now on, we’re going direct to Dublin.”

“Distribution is… … ?”

“It’s roughly stuffed with bread. If you fall down anyway, your nose will touch you.”

The vice-captain’s face darkened.

It is necessary to starve as much as possible for free supplies.

* * *

Dublin, a port city ruled by the Counts of Der.

It is a natural fort in the form of a deep inland bay and is also the largest harbor on the Isle of Eili.

Shaaa~

A pirate ship with both a pirate flag and a white flag raised there slowly approached the port.

“what?! pirate?”

“An open pirate flag?”

There is no such thing as a pirate who cannot use a port.

However, since it is the largest port on Airy Island, it should be said that it is a bit burdensome for pirates to come and go.

Most pirates do not use such a large port, and even if they do, they put down the pirate flag and come in with moderate notice.

slap. slap. thud.

By the way, that unusual looking pirate ship came in the middle of the pier very openly and put the boat.

chuck! chuck!! chuck!!!

The port manager hurriedly gathered his troops and stood in front of the Going Misha.

Because I didn’t know why I didn’t lower the pirate flag all the way.

Let’s go!

A board came down from the side of the Going Missha.

On top of that, wearing a high-class field officer jacket of the Serang Navy without a rank insignia like a coat… … .

“Little?!”

After that, the stalwart men follow.

“What are they doing?!”

The troops on the port side were still being recruited.

Both sides were tense with tension.

“I unintentionally caused a commotion. lol.”

The little boy smiles brightly at the port manager.

“what… What?! You guys!”

It was the innocent laugh of a child, but I could never let my guard down.

It is the vicious pirates who do not do anything strange.

“Looks like the news hasn’t come out yet. hehehe.”

There is a magic communication facility in the big city.

However, it cannot communicate over long distances through its own coordinates like a communication line. Two-way communication is possible only when a connection is established in the capital city first.

That’s why the capital periodically communicated with large cities and large estates.

Perhaps the news of Lian reached only Atrone.

Admiral Haeguk -> Capital -> Artrone.

Artrone was a manor right next to Dublin in Ryan’s maternal family.

“here. This is a pass issued by the admiral of the Navy himself.”

In fact, Ryan was well aware of this fact.

It was over without a fuss if you quietly entered without bothering to hang a pirate flag and presented your pass.

I’ve been working for nothing.

Not only the soldiers but also the citizens’ attention was focused.

‘Is this a species of interest… Khehehehe.’

The corners of his mouth twitched and his nostrils flared.

After all, nobility are people who feed on fame and attention.

Rihanna now needed attention and fame.

In other words, not lowering the pirate flag was intentional.

He wasn’t a man to let go of the opportunity to promote his presence without spending money.

‘It would have been nice if they had attacked me.’

In fact, I expected the Dublin side to act appropriately to catch the culprit, but the port manager’s response was quite gentle.

The troops were ready, but they did not cross the line.

“Huh up! The Grand Admiral himself?”

After receiving the pass, he gasped.

The grade was classified as special.

“I’d like some supplies, please.”

It was also the reason why Lian didn’t stop by to resupply.

If you have a limited express pass, you can get supplies for free.

‘Huh. My activity fee won’t decrease.’

Of course, the payment is paid in arrears from the issuer, but… … .

Some of them must also be borne by the city that supplied them.

“If you wait a little bit, I will get your approval.”

FYI, wealth just doesn’t move.

Instead of infinite energy, manastones must be supplied periodically.

Magic stones are a fairly expensive energy source, but it seems that they can get them for free.

Of course, the port side is bound to be burdened.

“I’ll be doing some sightseeing.”

“All right. Prince Leon.”

The port manager said that the opponent was a pirate, but he had an example.

In the first place, it was natural that the person with the express pass was not an ordinary person, but in his memory, he thought of Lian.

Because the owner of Artrone, right next door, was Lian’s maternal grandfather.

“Uncle Vice Captain. Give the crew a break until tomorrow.”

“They will like it.”

oooooooo!!!

The response came straight away.

The sailors of the Going Misha rushed into the port with their eyes turning red.

“What are you going to do?”

“Anyway, Uncle Sebas will draw and eat the maximum amount of supplies. I have a place to go. Oh. I hope the little mother is well. Put a guard on it and tell it to buy a necklace that an unmarried lady might like.”

“huh?!”

* * *

The port manager hurried to the mansion.

The reason I went to the mansion, not the management office, is because the person in charge of this port is there.

“miss!! Do you have a lady?!”

Its head is Baron Patrasche.

She was the youngest daughter of the Earl of Dublin.

“what’s the matter? Shut up!”

A woman who easily weighs over 100kg, burping with a lot of white cream in her mouth.

She always had a cake in her hand.

“The grandson of Count Atronne has come to visit. ”

“huh?! Aww, that cute kid. Didn’t he leave for his hometown?”

When Lian left for his hometown, the Earl of Leon, he boarded a ship at Dublin Harbor.

“I came with some pirates… … ?”

“Have you been kidnapped?”

“no. I feel like a pirate.”

Something about the story was puzzling.

She scratched her head with her cream-stained hand.

“Baron!! There are guests outside.”

At that time, the lady-in-waiting rushed over. Then he took out a handkerchief and wiped her face roughly.

“What guest?”

“It’s the boy who identified himself as Lian Leon… He said Count Artrone was his maternal grandfather… Recklessly… … .”

It was quite noisy outside.

He roared so loudly that passersby stared at him.

“Lady Patrasche! I, Lian Leon, have come to see you, whom I ardently adore!!! Please open the door.”

Of course, the loud noise could be heard from inside.

“Puuu!!!!”

Baron Patrasche, who had been sniffing the chocolate cake, spewed it out.

what the hell is this

At that time, I only saw his face for a very short time.

“mind… I need to meet you.”

“miss. It’s not possible. After doing this now.”

“Can’t you just leave it there!”

Her face turned red.

“Then clothes… … .”

“Anyway, no one here in the harbor doesn’t know about my piggy behavior. Okay. I’ll have to find out what the hell they’re trying to do with me.”

Still, I couldn’t help but feel my heart beating.

I know that Rihanna is younger than I am, but there is only a 5-year age difference.

It’s not an age that can’t be overcome.

‘no. It can’t be… … !’

Even if you are not in a romantic relationship, even if you are a married woman, you can fall in love.

In a relationship between a man and a woman, the meaning of support is sometimes expressed as admiration.

Knights are especially good at using such expressions when addressing queens or female lords.

However, the Counts of Artrone and the Counts of Der (Dublin) are at odds with each other.

A lot of tariffs are imposed on goods entering through the port, which is a great cause of the price increase in the Countess of Atrone.

Recently, the relationship has become so bad that the Battle of Yeongji almost happened.

A person from Atronae’s family wants to support someone in Dublin, but there is nothing they can do.

“Let them in.”

“yes… miss.”

You won’t know what he’s thinking until you meet him.
