Chapter 278. The war is over… (3) + the future of the spiritists (1) going back a few days.
The current King of the Kingdom of Ernesia was exchanging opinions with each of the influential nobles to discuss the future direction of the war at this royal meeting.
“Hmm? Is that true?”
“Yes, Your Majesty. Undoubtedly.”
Duke Gast nodded, expressing strong conviction.
“Did different races really unite the country?”
Jeil could not hide his surprise while checking the report that he had uploaded after organizing the situation.
While the kingdom of Ernesia was paying attention to the war with the Holy Kingdom, another change of situation was taking place on the continent.
No, it’s not a small thing that can be simply called a change.
It is truly an unprecedented event in the history of the continent.
National integration of heterogeneous peoples.
Originally, the different races were living in small tribal units, except for the kingdoms of elves and dwarves.
And they must have been in conflict against the continued oppression of the Holy Kingdom.
Did they unite and build the country?
It is also said to have happened almost recently.
“…I always thought it was impossible.”
The reason why it was considered impossible is based on extremely common sense grounds.
In order to integrate, ideologies must be aligned to some extent.
However, unlike humans, it is difficult for heterogeneous people.
The number of different races is so diverse that it is impossible to count them with one hand.
As much as they are diverse, their values are also innumerable, so there are many cases where even different races cannot enjoy harmony with each other if they are of different races.
Occasionally tribal alliances were formed when interests were aligned, but these did not last long.
That was one of the reasons it was difficult for heterogeneous groups to grow as a nation like humans.
tying it together
He thought that he, the king, knew best how difficult it was.
Humans and each lord don’t get along, so there are endless trivial troubles…
“The world really doesn’t know.”
Cheil was once again in awe, and he even felt ashamed of his narrow insight that he had been concluding.
Anyway, what happened is what happened.
“But Lord Gast managed to find out about it.”
“It is nothing to be proud of. There were just a few people from different races among my aides. That is what they reported to me.”
“Is that so?”
I heard the circumstances.
I don’t know what method of communication they used, but it seemed that the heterogeneous nation informed all the heterogeneous tribes spread across the continent about the founding of their country.
It seems that he had no intention of keeping it a secret, and it seems that he just informed it, so his aides reported the fact to the duke.
It was really surprising.
At the same time, I was also concerned.
“Right. But is there any harm to your servants even if you report it like that?”
It’s trivial, but it wasn’t that it didn’t raise such questions.
Maybe there will be retaliation?
To that first concern, the duke replied that it was fine.
“No problem. Rather, he said he sent such a letter hoping that it would be widely publicized.”
“Hmm, is that so?”
I’m not sure, but I’m sure there’s no problem with that.
What is important is the birth of a unified nation of heterogeneous peoples.
A change unprecedented in any past history.
It certainly won’t end with the mere creation of a new country.
By now, not only Jeil, but also the heads of other countries would have heard the news and were rolling their heads.
It’s a pity for the Zelnian Holy Kingdom, but their problems are no longer trivial.
“Then the important thing from now on is the relationship with that foreign country.”
Jeil smiled and murmured.
Other nobles were also quietly sympathizing with his thoughts.
Hearing those words from the older brother, I smiled faintly.
What did you think when you said that Seongguk would be ruined?
“A country that integrates heterogeneous races… What did you mean?”
“As expected, Arell. Did you know?”
Why do you say it on the premise that I will know?
As expected, I knew.
Rather, I heard it right after I returned to Fahilia.
“Isn’t there a Dwarf artisan in our territory? I heard from him.”
“Ho-oh… did you contact him?”
“I heard that the kingdoms of elves and dwarves were all integrated.”
It was an incident that I would have heard and had some interest in.
As you can see, the elves give the name of the kingdom, but in reality they are isolated from the world and form their own culture.
Dwarves run the country more harshly.
Although the directions are different, the two races have one thing in common: they have extremely strong pride.
That they were willing to step down from the throne and bow down to a unified nation.
“There must have been a lot of movement between us and the Holy Kingdom.”
It can’t be helped that they couldn’t catch their movements.
Because it was the mainstream to not touch the other races.
For me, there is nothing to lose even if they found a nation.
Is it rather welcome?
Establishing a huge nation and making it public.
In other words, it has some relationship with other countries.
Then trade cannot be left out.
This will open the way to new products that have not yet been acquired.
I wish I had something tasty.
“Arel seems to be waiting for the situation.”
“Isn’t it obvious? Your Majesty will be of the same opinion. We have no reason to be hostile to them anyway…
I don’t know about the Holy Kingdom.”
It is also the opinion that the Seongguk that Brother Jeil said will be ruined.
Now that it has stood tall as a full-fledged force, the heterogeneous nation will take a decisive action regarding the castle.
Even if it wasn’t so, a lot of blood was shed because of the unfair oppression.
In addition, the heterogeneous tribes continued to lose their livelihood under their persecution as the kingdom grew.
Will they really leave the kingdom as it is?
I’m sure he’ll grind his teeth.
“A lot of people see a war going on.”
“That is self-employed.”
It is the result of doing useless things in the name of God, claiming to be only for humans.
Perhaps their order will disappear from history sooner than I expected.
I thought so calmly.
Anyway, from the perspective of the Kingdom of Ernesia, it’s just another matter.
In the first place, the relationship had gone so far that it even went to war with the Seongguk.
“Also, there is no reason for the different races to be hostile to us.”
In the first place, the kingdom of Ernesia had a friendly policy to the extent of issuing citizenship to the different races.
As far as I know, it was a policy passed down from the first king.
It is said that he sternly said, “Do not be hostile to them, whether they have horns or not, whether they have scales on their skin or not, whether they are large or small.”
And that policy continued into the next generation.
Because of that, there were quite a few conflicts with the Holy Kingdom and those who hated the different races.
In the end, that’s a good thing.
Other countries may not know, but the kingdom of Ernesia has no reason or justification to be hostile to them.
‘…I don’t care if it’s a coincidence or not.’
It’s enough for me to eat only delicious food and relax.
If there is a problem, let’s think about it then.
“Even so, there could be an emergency, so I think we should contact them quickly and see the trend.”
“I think so too, Arell.”
Perhaps, at this point, Big Brother is already trying to contact them.
No, it will definitely be.
It seems like he’s consulting me on a lot of things, but he tends to push things that he’s sure of.
It is my hope that it does not depend entirely on me, so I have no intention of tripping over it.
“In addition, I also believe that they will not mind contacting us.”
“The grounds?”
“When it comes to the Seongguk issue, they will be in a position to thank us. Could this be a coincidence?”
There are no coincidences in the world.
This is the only thing I can say very few times.
Seongguk fights against us and eventually loses and stumbles.
As a result, they could not interfere in the unification of the different races.
Is this really a coincidence?
“Wouldn’t you like to create a place for conversation in return?”
If they also know how to discern self-interest to some extent, they will surely try to redefine their relations with neighboring countries after the provincial government’s treatment.
Thinking like that makes me wonder what kind of person he really is.
Integrate all the different races with different values.
And a person who calculated up to this period and created a huge nation.
“I wonder what kind of man he is.
It seems like a pretty big deal to integrate them.
However, when I expressed these sentiments, the oldest brother’s reaction was somewhat subtle.
“Actually, that’s it, Arell. He…
no, she.”
“she?”
Jeil hyung-nim smiled bitterly and said,
“You called yourself the Queen.”
“Hmm? Is it like that?”
Some useless information.
At least from my point of view it is.
Well, calling her a hero would be rude again.
That’s just the perception.
“It is indeed like that.”
I, too, let out an awkward laugh and said only my personal impressions.
“Looks forward to the next few years.”
What will the world be like?
That got me a little curious.
The future of the spiritists (1)
Decided to leisurely eat snacks and see how the world would go.
I went to meet some people because I had another personal matter to organize.
There was nothing to go far.
Because now they are in Fahilia.
“Is there anything lacking in living?”
“Is it possible? Even if I express my gratitude to Her Highness Arell Ernesia at least three times a day, it is not enough.”
A man with a rough look bowed his head while politely bowing in front of me.
He has a face that would suit him even if he went to a battlefield right away and smiled lightheartedly. Surprisingly, his voice was gentle and his manner of speech was well-mannered.
“Thanks to Your Highness’ grace, we Elementalists were able to live most safely for the first time in our lives.”
As he said, he is a spirit sage.
Those who were born with the qualities of an Elementalist that I mentioned earlier when I gathered the Emperor of the Empire and Nelvenia.
Now, on behalf of them, this man is speaking with me.
This man’s name is Mezont Legian.
In the meantime, he was a man who secretly rescued those who were born with spirit affinity while avoiding the oppression of the Holy Kingdom, and avoided their eyes.
“Again, we are giving thanks every day. I even pray three times a day.”
“No, don’t do that. Because it’s embarrassing.”
Seriously.
What are you guys doing’?
“I just did what I had to do. So don’t take it to heart. There are no hobbies that occupy a place in a man’s heart.”
“Grace is grace. I will never forget.”
I’m joking, but he was always serious.
The joke doesn’t work.
“Well, if you don’t mind forgetting, then do whatever you want.”
‘Cause I won’t care
In the first place, with the intention of screwing up the Holy Kingdom, and helping Pena, I helped the Spiritualists in order to cut off the relationship between the Empire and the Holy Kingdom.
Therefore, I have no intention of condescending to them.
Well, anyway, there was a reason why I personally visited this man and called him out.
“You’ve heard the story about the war, right?”
“of course. Congratulations on your big win.”
“It’s not even that tidy. Anyway, putting that aside…I just called you to talk about the future.”
Since the long rush is over, I decided to tell him about the business that called him.
