Surviving a Harsh Fantasy with Cheat Items

TN: Changed fistmen to boxers.

The star boxer and commander of the boxer corps, Boxer Emperor Dyson, was originally a slave, so he doesnt seem to like nobles like us. He seems to be on good terms with the three rebelling kingdoms of the east though he is having a bit of temper tantrums.

If we succeed in rescuing the old emperor and the imperial granddaughter, they may ask for our protection.

Hearing me say that, Duke Emehart knelt again.

Please dont do that. It kind of reminds me of the Duke of Transylvania. He likes kneeling too.

Considering our origins, we are imperial subjects so we would be happy to cooperate with you. However, we will only do it if its the will of your excellency King General.

I understand. The Dukes Alliance of Germania is now a protectorate of the Kingdom of Silesie and if the Boxer Emperor attacks you, the kingdom will assist you. Yes, are Garan Mercenaries useful?

After the war ended, the Garan Mercenaries were at lost for what to do next.

Given that the Dukes Alliance were having trouble finding soldiers due to the deteriorating security situation caused by the civil war, I mediated to have them hire the mercenaries.

Yes, we are very grateful for your help. The soldiers of the Dukes Alliance around the Tsurube River are weak compared to those of the empire, that includes our duchy. Therefore, I have something to consult with your excellency King General.

What is it?

I asked Duke Emehart, who looked a little uncomfortable as he stood up.

I think it would be a good idea for us to recruit volunteer soldiers in the name of his excellency King General or rather, the Hero of Silesie.

I would love that but, is that okay?

Nobles and knights do not like peasants taking up arms. The recruitment of volunteer soldiers is not allowed in the territory of local nobles even in the Kingdom of Silesie.

That repulsion is natural because that is the source of the power that only the privileged class can use violence.

In addition, the empire is ravaged by peasant uprisings.

Given that they are even willing to recruit peasants, they are kind of desperate.

Seeing the power of the citizens and peasants who have brought down the imperial capital, I thought that we could no longer resist this era. There are people from our territory who will join the Silesie Volunteer Army. I also thought that it would be better to recruit troops directly from our territory and use it for the defense of my homeland.

Very well. Then, you may do as you please, Duke Emehart.

After all, Duke Emehart has the power of foresight.

He will persuade the other dukes to recruit volunteer army in their territories. Id be grateful for the strengthened defenses so I decided to cooperate.

If we send people, know-how, and weapons. Not only will the defenses be strengthened but even my name will be more fragrant. Its basically killing two birds with one stone.

I would like to have dinner with you, your excellency King General. My little girl will be back soon.

That little girl should be his daughter Eleonora.

My little girl, hmmm. I cant tell if he seriously means it. Eleonora acts like a little girl in some ways after all.

Is Herman in a hurry?

No, I earned a lot of time thanks to hero-sama so theres no problem even if we stay for a night or so. Honestly speaking, the empire is struggling against bandits now. Since we have to consider a lot of things, it is normal for you to discuss it with Duke Lanct first.

Since Herman says so, all is well.

I wonder what kind of dinner Duke Emehart is eating.

Even so, were going to stay for a night?

Well, flying at night is dangerous.

As I was relaxing in the parlor, drinking a cup of rich and tasty tea, I heard the sound of heavy footsteps of an armor-clad person coming from the outside.

If you come here with such momentum, wont the high-class carpet be damaged?

Seeing Kato-san, the butler knight, chasing in a hurry, Im sure its her. Eleonora, fully armed with her flame armor, came in after vigorously opening the door.

It seems like she returned safely unhurt after subjugating some wild thieves.

Eleonora, long time no see, yo!

I stood up and greeted her but I couldnt finish my greeting.

Eleonora, who has long blond hair and wearing a scarlet cloak fluttering in the air, ran up to me and punched me in the stomach while she was equipped with her flaming armor.

What a surprise. I would have died instantly if I was not wearing my mithril armor under my black robe.

I spew out the tea in my mouth.

After punching someone in the stomach as a greeting, Eleonora looked down on me with her blue eyes as I fell back with a grin on her face.

Congratulations on your marriage.

thanks.

Shes still a fierce woman.
