CH 128

Sequence theorem (1)

A week has passed since I left the capital.

After arriving at the warp gate in the northeast area, Roman and his soldiers took a rest and headed for Dmitry.

It is an arduous journey that started from the southern front.

Although he recovered a bit of his stamina in the capital, there was no reason to arrive at Dmitry as quickly as he had to push the soldiers.

just one week

Roman entered the territory of Viscount Konrad.

Now, after passing this place, Dmitry came out, so the soldiers were inflated with anticipation for their longing for their hometown.

how far did you move

As we approached the border between Dmitry and Konrad, a strange sight caught our attention.

Gosh!

"All the farms this year are ruined!"

"These bastards! If this is the case, then how are we supposed to live?"

bunch of people.

People who were probably peasants were sitting on the floor and weeping. Just by looking around, the situation was grasped.

The vast expanse of land where they were cultivating crops was devastated, and the farmers wept as if the sky had fallen with their messed up faces, probably because of a battle.

Roman looked away from them.

I don't know what kind of disadvantage they suffered, but there was no reason for Roman to solve their difficulties.

right next door.

Until Chris explains.

" Apparently they are Dmitry's peasants. I've heard that some people who aren't engaged in mining are renting land on Konrad's estate to farm. As Konrad, it was difficult to manage the distant land, so it was said that it was leased out, but something seems to have gone wrong in the process."

stand tall.

Roman stopped walking.

As for the people of Dmitry.

The story was different.

The incident with the Castro family.

Roman took Dmitry himself into the fence, and then their work was out of the question.

said Roman.

Kris. bring them before me I need to hear what happened to them."

Okay.

Chris bows his head.

Eventually, Chris commanded the peasants to colonize Roman.

* * *

It was as Chris said.

They were uncommon farmers in Dmitry, and they complained of injustice at Roman's question.

"As you know, there is not much arable land in Dmitry. So, there are many farmers who rent this land on the border of Dmitry and Konrad, and we signed a contract directly with the Konrad family and got a promise to rent the land here for 10 years. Now, in a month, it is time to harvest the crops, and a few days ago, the Konrad family suddenly sent us a nonsensical message."

on the word notice.

The farmer pounded his chest as if frustrated.

Just thinking about it, I still felt like my blood was gushing upside down.

"The Konrad family have work to do with the land themselves, so we told them to clear the land within a week. Does this make sense? No matter how common we are, we have a contract to rent this place for 10 years at a reasonable price. With 5 years left on our contract, they are trying to kick us out unilaterally without any discussion. young master. It's really sad. Look at this. We couldn't get out, so the Konrad family sent men to ravage the land."

"Hehehehe, we have no way to live now. I've been working hard for so long, only watching the crops being harvested, but how are you supposed to live if you can't even get a harvest like this?

The peasants cried.

It was a frustrating situation for them.

The Conrads completely ignored legitimate contracts, but the world had more problems than contracts.

class society.

Against the Konrad family, which had its own power in the northeast area, the protests of a single peasant had no meaning.

It is possible that the pod is caught and the neck is blown away.

At least it was Dmitry's people, so it ended up ravaging the land, and if it were Konrad's people, they wouldn't have been able to protest.

It was an unreasonable situation.

At the thoroughly trampled rights of the weak, Chris said in a quiet voice.

"Sir. The situation of the farmers is unique, but it does not seem to be a problem we can do. The land leased by the peasants belonged to the Konrad family. Even if they prevent them from taking back their possessions, it could lead to problems between the two families. And the Konrad family is forming their own power with the aristocrats in the northeast. So the problem with Konrad is by no means simple."

the northeast area.

If Barco and Dmitry were two mountain ranges, there are forces like Konrad below them.

Although their individual powers are not that great, they formed a fence to protect each other.

Northeast Association.

They were like bats.

When the Barco family was in power for a while, they were attached to it, and as soon as the Barco family fell, they appeared at Dmitry's social party.

They usually don't raise their voices.

They only show a grouping nature when they are in danger, so there was no reason to touch each other and blush.

the problem is.

The opponent was Roman Dmitry.

The situation in the northeast area was closely related to Roman's plans for the future.

said Roman.

Kris. If we ignore the problem because it is not simple, no one will solve our problem. Bystanders only increase the problem. Before I inflate my body any further, I should completely uproot the problem."

" !"

Chris widened his eyes.

Roman's words.

didn't know its meaning.

Chris took a step back and bowed his head.

"I will obey the command of my lord."

If only Roman had made a decision.

It was the subordinate's responsibility to follow it.

* * *

finally.

Arrived in Dmitry.

The gates were wide open to welcome the return of Roman, and Dmitry's men came out and gave them enthusiastic cheers.

"Roman! Roman!"

"Roman! Roman!"

"The hero of Cairo! You are the pride of Dmitry!"

There was a riot.

They also heard rumors.

The fact that Roman Dmitry played an active role on the southern front, and that incident was called the hero of Cairo.

It was a moment of great pride as a member of Dmitry.

He was once a human being called Dmitry's jerk, but now everyone looked at Roman Dmitry with respect.

through the crowds.

Roman moved forward.

It was a familiar thing to be welcomed by people, and wherever Roman looked, people cheered.

The entrance to the inner city.

Baron Romero ran out after a month and gave Roman a hug.

"Son. It was really hard!"

"How have you been?"

"Everything is fine. What's special about a frontier like Dmitry? I have prepared a grand party for you. As if today is the last day of your life, let's eat and drink and have fun."

Baron Romero walked ahead.

By the way.

Roman did not follow him.

He spoke with a face that was far from the cheers of the people, and with a voice that caught the steps of Baron Romero.

father. Can you spare some time for me?"

* * *

The lord's office.

My deaf ears regained stability.

Roman explained what had happened to the Conrads, and Baron Romero said with a rather firm face.

" I've heard of something like that too. But son. There are sensitive issues in the world that cannot be touched lightly. No matter how much the contract was signed, there was no way to prevent the Konrad family from reclaiming their land. even if it's blocked. Will Dmitry's peasants be able to farm properly on Konrad's land? Rather, creating new jobs for them is a peaceful solution."

It was like Chris.

Baron Romero hoped not to escalate the problem.

If it were to seriously harm Dmitry's people, this issue was on an ambiguous border.

said Roman.

"I know what my father is talking about. But there is one thing I want to ask you."

"Tell me."

If the. If it wasn't Dmitry, but the people of the Marquis Benedict. Do you think the Konrad family will be able to take the peasants' land?"

Moment.

Baron Romero's expression hardened.

It was a sensitive issue.

It was a meaningless example, and even Baron Romero could not understand Roman's intentions.

"I don't know what you mean by that, but the Marquis Benedict is no ordinary nobleman. The head of the central government that controls the Cairo Kingdom. Earl Gregory and Earl of Denver are protected by the Empire and have their own axes of power, but in the Cairo Kingdom, in the end, the Marquis Benedict is the living power. Who can touch people like that? This is a false example in the first place, and it has absolutely nothing to do with our problem."

I just drew a line.

That's right.

Assuming that the Marquis Benedict is the premise, no problems will be solved.

The placenta is the placenta of people who look at him in the first place, so how could he possibly touch his people?

Yes. As his father said, the Marquis Benedict is a living power, so no one thinks of touching his people. If so, what do you think is the position of the Dmitry family in the northeast region? Just half a year ago, we were not in a solid position. However, as we overthrew the Barco family, there is no other family stronger than us in the northeast region."

"I will not deny you. Although Dmitry is said to be the strongest in the northeast, if he blindly trusted his own power, he might not know what kind of danger it would pose due to the attack of the neighboring coalition. This is not a matter of self-esteem. There is no need to create a confrontational structure between Dmitry and other forces by raising a problem that does not need to be touched."

no. There is a need for that."

strongly protested.

Despite Baron Romero's words, Roman did not take a step back.

"We defeated Barco. At that time, the northeast area seemed to completely follow their opinions in order to be seen well by the Barco family, who were protected by the "central government." But what about now? Although it is said that Barco's power came from the central government, the Konrad family and other nobles are showing a complacent attitude when Dmitry holds the real power. people say Oh, Dmitry isn't as sensitive as Barco, so there's no need to worry too much about it. Even touching Dmitry's people won't cause any major problems. After all, Dmitry is just a family in the northeast region, and I think there is a limit because he does not receive the protection of a large power such as the central government."

northeast.

it's a small world

The king there was too insignificant compared to the whole of Cairo.

father. The Konrad family touched Dmitry's people. It wasn't a problem between the Young Ji-min, but even though the Konrad family was in direct control, they made the easy decision that it was okay to touch Dmitry's people. What would that mean? We're just not that good. People say that Dmitry is the best family in the northeast, but in reality they don't."

His voice changed violently.

War with Hector.

Roman found the wildness of his previous life.

The predator who survived to the end of the world of weak meat-eating knew that this problem should not be overlooked.

He looked straight at Baron Romero.

And then.

said in a firm voice.

"Now is the time to organize the ranks of the northeast area. Who is above and who is below. We have to show it clearly through this incident."

Fireworks went off.

the northeast area.

Roman revealed a new ambition.
