Chapter 241: 242

If you decide to do so, you need to act quickly. If such a monster exists, it’s dangerous if we don’t send the flagship out to sea as soon as possible. I, my mother, and some of the sailors boarded the dinghies that were lowered in no time and headed for the Koenigsvelg river port.

As soon as we left, the 2 galleon ships immediately started moving offshore. Even the monsters of the Kingdom of Polsky wouldn’t be able to run on a lake this large. It might be dangerous if someone slipped into the shadows and approached in a dinghy and boarded us…

At least I don’t feel like we can stop them if they board under cover of night, with Mother being ashore. It would be quite dangerous if it was that opponent who had crossed blades with her many times on the battlefield. No matter how vigilant I am, I don’t think I can always spot a dinghy approaching quietly in pitch blackness. If you miss even one, you will be boarded and it will be a disaster.

“You don’t have to worry about it,” Mother said. “Even Albert is quite strong by himself.”

“Mother……” I said.

…… That’s right. There’s no point in worrying me more than necessary here. Maybe the enemy won’t board the flagship. Even if they try to board, we may be able to discover and repel them. If my father and that monster fought, my father might win.

Everything is just my imagination, and it’s foolish not to take any action against possible dangers, but it’s even more foolish to be anxious even though you understand, anticipated it, and taken countermeasures. What you should do is not be afraid, but read the war situation and make proper countermeasures. That’s all.

“Even so, there are no signs of them in the surroundings at all,” I said.

“Right…?” Mother said.

The people around us didn’t react at all to us who were approaching the town by stepping off the dinghy from a distance.

If the Kingdom of Polsky has completely surrounded Koenigsvelg, there must be some kind of action against us who are trying to approach the town, such as someone coming up to stop us.

Or, if the enemy hasn’t completely suppressed the surroundings yet, the residents of Koenigsvelg and the guards should take some action. If they thought we were people of Polsky, there would be no way they would just let us silently land without warning.

“… Hmm? It seems that some people are holding their breath in this town,” I said.

“Seems you’ve also realized as much, too, Flora dear,” Mother said.

Come to think of it… I feel like I’ve come to be able to sense signs of things hiding in the shadows before I know it. You can see the signs and movements of all creatures in the forest even before you enter the forest! It’s not that ridiculous, but somehow I’ve come to understand what’s around me.

Wild animals are holding their breath and hiding, monsters are eyeing you, and people are hiding and following you, if it’s not too far away and seems to have something to do with you, you can get a sense of it, it seems. If you follow that sense, you’ll know that there are a few people lying in wait near the Koenigsvelg river port.

“What is the situation…?” I asked.

There are explanations for them not calling out to me. If the town is safe and they don’t know who we are, wouldn’t the Koenigsvelg side usually come up with a warning or something? People from the Kingdom of Polsky may have landed, so there’s no way they’ll let us pass into the town. The lack of any warning is…

First and foremost, the worst case is when the town has already fallen to the Kingdom of Polsky. In this case, if the Kingdom of Polsky occupies the town, they know that any approaching strangers are the enemy. After all, if anyone other than their navy approaches, they’re all enemies. So there is no need for them to do anything, we’re not allied forces, so they’ll know for certain we’re enemies and ambush us.

This one is better than that scenario, but the situation is no one is can do anything since making noise will make things much worse. For example, Koenigsvelg could already be completely surrounded, and if you shout loudly here, the enemy will notice, so you best keep quiet.

There are several other theories that can be considered, but the most optimistic one would be that the Koenigsvelg side understands that we are allies and are silently waiting for us to land. I think this is overly optimistic, but I can’t rule out the possibility.

“The number of opponents and their skills aren’t that big of a deal, so let’s just land like this,” Mother said.

“Yes, Mother…” I said.

Apparently, my mother can even see the ability of the opponent lurking. Mother’s skill is so much higher… it seems that it will still be a long time before I can catch up.

""

A dinghy is brought ashore at Koenigsvelg river port and landed there. If I get this close, I’ll know too. Five people are holding their breath while hiding in the shadows, and they seem to be watching for an opening. But when my mother and I landed, the hostile presence wavered. It seems we’ve upset them.

Well, I can’t say that anyone would be surprised if my mother showed up in an undeniably aristocratic dress in this besieged city in the middle of a war… I’m wearing a dress, too, though…

“Don’t be so alarmed. As you can see, we are not the enemy,” I said.

We approached the town while spreading out our arms and showing we were unarmed, then a young man came out of the shadows. Older than me… around his 20’s. It is thought he was a dock worker because he was quite tanned.

“Stop! Don’t get any closer! Who are you guys?” he asked, pointing with a hook-like object you couldn’t even call a weapon.

Judging from his outfit and tools, I think he’s related to the fishermen.

“We are members of the Caanza Alliance. We also brought in a relief force under the direction of the Kingdom of Ploiss,” I explained.

Houses Caan and Carruthers certainly came to the rescue under the direction of the Kingdom of Ploiss. However, there is no reason to give all the credit to the Kingdom of Ploiss. Originally, the Caanza Alliance obtained information about Koenigsvelg and came to the rescue. Ploiss was on board with it, and the Caanza Alliance was the primary contributor to this rescue.

“Ooh! The Caanza Alliance!” another said, coming out of hiding.

“Ploiss acted so fast!?” yet another said, their voices all full of anticipation.

But only the young man didn’t break his stern expression.

“Is there any proof that you guys are really part of the Caanza Alliance? And I don’t think the Kingdom of Ploiss will move so quickly. Do you have any evidence?” I asked.

“There is no way to prove that we are from the Caanza Alliance,” I said. “But you guys who saw the galleon ship that came out to sea earlier, do you know that it is a Caanza Alliance ship? And the Kingdom of Ploiss’s, as well, so this proves we are who we say we are.”

And with that, I showed the Royal Rescript that Wilhelm and Dietrich had prepared. Ordinary citizens wouldn’t be able to tell if it was real if they were shown something like this, but if they showed it to the government agencies of Koenigsvelg, they would know it was real.

And when I landed, I realized that they should have been able to see the galleon ship where I was before from here. If these young men were engaged in business at the port of this town, they must have seen the ships of the Caanza Alliance and the Caan Family Merchant Fleet.

“Even so… it’s different from the town I came to when I invited Koenigsvelg to join the alliance before,” I said. “When I visited last time, I was called to a town on the other side of the peninsula, not entering through the river’s mouth. Was that not Koenigsvelg?”

“Are you talking about Zimmelbude? That place is a branch of Koenigsvelg, so outsiders who come discuss diplomacy will probably be guided there,” the young man said.

It seems that various things have been done for our meeting. We had not come to this estuary when we had previously visited Koenigsvelg and when we sent envoys to join the Caanza League. We were taken to a town on the peninsula beyond the lake and conferred with the Council there.

But it seems that it was not the main part of Koenigsvelg, but a branch that was used when inviting outsiders for political discussions. For the time being, there was a port and it was developed as a fishing and trading town in various ways, but the scale is different from Koenigsvelg proper.

Maybe they didn’t trust me or the Caanza Alliance at that time, but I can’t help but wonder how they would treat me when they asked me to let them into the Caanza Alliance.

Well, that’s not what we’re discussing now. In any case, I’m glad that I was able to find the real Koenigsvelg, and guided the House Caan Merchant Fleet to it. We were in danger of being deceived.

“That you know that I know you are an important person, in turn!” an older man who looked like a fisherman cried, worried. “But don’t get us wrong! It’s too far away to invite someone from the outside to go up the river to this place, so diplomacy should be done there when dealing with envoys! It’s not like we tried to deceive you or lied to you!”

It seems that he knows some things.

He said that it would be a little inconvenient to invite diplomatic missions from outside to the interior of Koenigsvelg itself, so there was a town called Zimmelbude on a peninsula in the lake a short distance from the river’s mouth. It seems that it was originally just a fishing village, but it now it had been developed in that direction because the location makes it easy to entertain outside diplomatic missions.

So, instead of trying to hide or deceive the location of Koenigsvelg, if you come by land and Koenigsvelg is closer, you can go there, if you come from the sea and Zimmelbude is closer, they’ll guide you there, it seems Koenigsvelg’s methodology is a simple matter of convenience and distance.

“Understood…” I said. “It’s not that I don’t think anything of it, but right now is probably not the time to discuss that. Let’s discuss it after this matter is settled. First, I’d like to know what’s going on in this town…?”

“Are you certain they’re not enemies?” the young man asked.

“Yeah. No mistaking it,” the old man said. “That she was invited to Zimmelbude means she must be a high-ranking person who came when we were joining the Caanza Alliance.”

Hey, it’s fine to whisper among yourselves, but I can hear you. I don’t mind, but…

“… Understood,” the young man said. “I am Stefan. The Admiral of the Navy for the Koenigsvelg Defense Corps.”

The title sounds amazing, but is this young man the governor? It’s called the navy, but it doesn’t have many ships. There are only small ships and no large ships in sight.

“I am Baron Floto von Caan,” I said. “This is Margravess Maria von Carruthers, Land Commander of the Koenigsvelg Relief Force.”

“…… What?” Stefan went, dumbfounded.

I don’t have the time for this. After somehow managing to bring him back to his senses and entering the town of Koenigsvelg, we headed for the administrative organization established by the Caanza Alliance in place of the disbanded council.

There are people who know me if we go to the Caanza Alliance’s governors and administrative agencies. The people dispatched from the Caanza Alliance consist of people I can trust, so it’s only natural that they’re acquaintances. There, I received an explanation of the current situation, including Mother and Stefan.

“In other words, you have no recollection of the cause of the sudden attack, and there has been no official notification from the Kingdom of Polsky’s side, so you’re only besieged from afar?” I asked.

“Yes……”

Apparently, the Kingdom of Polsky hadn’t started a full-scale offensive yet, so there wasn’t much damage to the town. However, since the land route is blocked, supplies will continue to decrease, and if this continues, they will starve to death in the not-too-distant future.

That Polsky suddenly surrounded Koenigsvelg is unknown, and it was just that they were suddenly surrounded by land without a declaration of war or notice of hostilities.

Also, it seems that the dispatched governors and administrative agencies didn’t know that I was only guided to Zimmelbude than here. So there were no reports. However, they were certain it wasn’t malice or trying to obfuscate the location of their town, it really was the same for everyone.

Well, I don’t have time to talk about it now, so I can do that later. First of all, we have to think about how to deal with the Kingdom of Polsky, which is the besieging force.

And Stefan really is the Admiral of the Navy. However, as I expected, the navy is a fantastic name, but there are almost no ships, and it seems that the members are mostly just regular sailors. It goes without saying, but there can’t be a full-fledged navy.

The land force is the same, and it seems that it is not a decent army at all, with only a small number of people from the town and some vigilantes added to the original town guard. Outside are about 3,000 Kingdom of Polsky soldiers. On the other hand, there are only dozens, hundreds of civilians and some soldiers here.

I feel like there are fewer enemies than I expected, but that’s my mistake. Even on Earth, during the Middle Ages, it was normal for wars to involve thousands of soldiers in a single country’s large army or tens of thousands of soldiers in a coalition of multiple countries. Until after the modern era, wars that mobilize hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of troops were abnormal, and I had forgotten that in this world, even a few thousand would be a large enough army.

However, even if the number of enemies is less than I thought, our forces are even fewer and the situation has not improved. It seems that there are monsters in human form among the enemies, so what in the hell is going on…?
