"Uh, I'll come back to life. Hot springs are great for healing tired bodies."

"It does feel good. It's going to be a relief to be able to soak up warm water and warm up your body in this cold time."

"Oh, Lion says something nice, too. How is Master Carlos? It'll feel good, the hot springs."

"Hmm, not bad. but it's more groundbreaking that you can drink while soaking in water than that. The booze goes well with the warm body, Ars."

After my work in Paramere, I was somehow soaked in water with Carlos and Lion in a hot spring on Barca Knights territory.

Well, I asked Carlos out for some reason.

What Clarice told me before when I came in with Lilina at the hot spring.

It was about the problem that the Hot Springs Inn was too low an inn grade to invite guests from outside.

So, since then, I've had a lot of buildings built with Clarice and other opinions in mind.

The architects introduced by the Graham family built the Hot Springs Inn in the form of a new rebuild from the hot tub.

The building was completed and all the conditioning items and so on.

In the meantime, I was able to make a building that would just invite my wife, Lilina, while targeting the merchants there in the main.

I was actually going to come in once I got that report.

So, as usual, we invited Carlos to the hot springs in an attempt to build brand strength that it was an inn recognized by Carlos, lord of Fontana territory, as a means to increase added value.

I just thought Carlos, as far as I'm concerned, was more likely not to come.

Because they're busier than me.

but when I speak, I admit in two replies, and this is how we come all the way to the Knights of Barca together and dip in the water.

Most importantly, Carlos himself did not seem to find meaning in the act of entering the hot springs that far.

Is it only about dating?

"But you have a good inn, Master Ars. I think it's good that you don't have to be naked outside like before."

"Oh, I guess I was just too free up front. He seemed happy on that occasion, but neither Lilina nor Clarice had spontaneously come to the hot springs unless I asked him out."

"But wasn't my sister happy to hear that we had this inn?

"Sounds like it. Besides, the merchant who was coming to Vulcania also went into the hot springs because of his rarity. Well, the fact that herbal water is popular is a bit subtle."

"Isn't that nice? It seems that this village is beginning to spread its name as a village of herbs and hot springs. Don't you owe it to Master Ars for everything he's done?"

"Right. If you're going to be famous, I'd appreciate it."

As far as I'm concerned, I suppose I should go in without mixing in hot water weirdly, but they say it's medicinal water that's popular as a hot spring right now.

They use some of the medicinal herbs that they grow steadily all year round in this glass greenhouse in Linda Village to put medicinal herbs in hot springs as medicinal water.

Actually, it seems that the meme has confirmed this as a clinical trial to the extent of the effect, but it does mean that the effect is acknowledged.

If so, I can't forbid medicinal water because of my personal preference.

Thus, it seemed, through the merchants, that the herbal hot springs were beginning to become a secret boom.

"I'll tell the others about the hot springs. but it's time to get back to business. Suppression to the west isn't a problem, is it, Ars?

"Yes, Master Carlos. Residents also took in, and Paramere was resurrected as a fortress. I suspect it's unlikely they'll break through there and take it back soon."

"Alright. Ghana originally served Fontana as the Knight's Home in greatest contact with the Arborest Territory. Leave it to him and he'll deal with it without difficulty. So will the next problem be the Urk family in the east"

"Next? Winter is coming, Master Carlos. Just move your soldiers in the snow and you'll freeze to death before you fight."

"I know that. It would be difficult to actually take immediate action. But the Wolk family has never been more vulnerable. It's not a good idea to miss it."

"It's true that the Urks have lost a lot of power in the last two years. Two of the Urk family's real children alone have been taken over, and there's been a huge reduction in the force."

"Exactly, Lion. That's why I just want to keep my wedge in right now. Any ideas?

"Oh, then..."

"What, Ars? Did you ever think you'd go out there and kill all the people in the Wolk family?

"No, no, don't fuck with me, Master Carlos. I was just wondering if it was a normal abbreviation."

"Adjustment, huh? Specifically?

"No, it's troubling when people ask me about specific proposals... What about this? There must have been a traitor out of Fontana in the battle between us, right? We're going to use the Wolk people who were connected to him."

"Using Wolk humans?

"It's made to look like a so-called double agent. Mr. X (pseudonym), the Knight of Wolk, had made contact with the traitors of Fontana to coordinate with the Arborest family in the west and had been measured to set up an assault. but actually, that was a lie, and there was a connection back there with Master Carlos himself. That battle seemed to be the biggest crisis in the Fontana family, and it was actually an operation for Carlos to work with X to take over the heads of the two aristocrats, twisting the facts and giving them information."

"... The Wolk knight who was in contact with this traitor was actually in a cooperative relationship with me. So you're spreading the lie that he's a traitor to the Urks?

"Yes, Master Carlos. Because it doesn't matter if it's actually right or not. Why was it better to launch an attack and get all the principals picked up? That's still because someone was pre-circulating the information, and there's no reason to suspect it. Did you find out which knight of Wolk you were in touch with from an inside man who was betraying us?

"Oh, the information is squeezing out tightly. Right. I can't even move my army in the winter, and I can't even get my hands on it. If so, would you use false information as time for it to penetrate the Wolk?"

"If that's the case, you might want to do the same to the Arborest family. Sure, the informant must have had the other information."

"Right. Lyon is right. The people I was in contact with in both houses told me all about the invasion period and the composition of the army in advance of the blackmail. Shall we then also help to take over the main class? Later, the Fontana family agreed to receive the territory."

"Uh, that's good, that. I look forward to seeing what happens when we all get together in New Year's celebrations after we get suspicious in the winter months when we can't even travel."

"You have a pretty good personality, too. All right, I'll adopt this proposal. I'll use my hands to keep the information flowing."

Hmm, I don't suppose they even think that such a ruse was decided while soaking up the bath.

Well, this won't mean moving the army again by the end of the year.

This is how we discussed how to deal with the West and East, and the winter time came.
