Chapter 180: 79.1

Caenista Capture Operation 4

“Bert-san, please.”

“Okay, I’m on it. Let’s go.”

“””Hah”””

The former swordsman Bert-san, who had revealed his true face, was followed by the decent, low-ranked knights of Arceides with joy filled faces.

The knights, who were nobles but had only a farming area, were close to the commoners and far away from the royal family, so when I promised them food aid, they were all tearful and happy.

From now on, Bert-san, knights, soldiers, and others were going to persuade (physically) along with the demon army the nobles and knights that were close to Arceides and their neighboring territories.

The kingdom-leaning nobles in Arceides’ castle have already been captured, but there were few kingdom supporters left, probably because they were weakened by the confiscation of their assets by Cam five years ago.

Also, the commercial guild of Arceides had offered their full cooperation.

They said that they were troubled by the nobles and the royal family who did nothing despite the current bad harvest and the stagnation of distribution, so they would put the word out to the guilds in the various regions.

They said they felt foolish to be alarmed by the sight of me, the “Demon Lord,” making oatmeal with a single-minded devotion. However, it seemed that many of the guilds in the royal capital had the Prime Minister’s support, so it would not be that easy.

For now, I gave about 20 million silver coins to the Commerce Guild so that they could get food from the Royal Capital, which had the only good harvest this season.

The silver coins in Isbell Continent could be used in limited places, but even if they did not deal in food, there were many wealthy merchants close to the royal family and the Prime Minister, so it was possible to exchange them for money.

“The exchange rate is 1 to 1.2, and you can spend up to five times the exchange rate on your purchases.”

“Then the negotiations will be easy. I’ll leave the rest to you, Carol-dono.”

Jess-san of the Commerce Guild took care of it with a smile. He was responsible for blacksmithing, but since the original branch manager was leaning toward the kingdom, I asked him to be the branch manager instead.

The adventurers who were out of work were asked to take the place of the missing knights to deal with demon-related matters and to catch anyone who tries to escape from here and inform the royal capital.

At first, they rebelled, but after we broke every bone in their body, they all agreed to help us half-heartedly.

Well, I still couldn’t trust them, but I heard that soldiers and demons from the daemon kingdom would come to support the security, so it would probably be fine.

…I wondered if demons who had sworn obedience were more trustworthy than humans.

As for Dirk, when I was thinking about what to do with him, Elma approached me and asked me to take him into custody.

“I’ve been so squeamish about him crying his gooey tears after he’s been broken by me. I’d like to make him cry with a better voice.”

“…ok.”

Normally, I would have dismissed this request, but Dirk had been planning to train a half-elf as his exclusive pet, so in a way, it was close to what he wanted. I’m kind.

That Abel was also going to be a farmer in a roundabout manner under Bert-san’s supervision, so I hoped he could get along with Dirk as well.

And then there was the matter of father and mother…
