Remaining in Obscurity
"Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhh! It hurts! It huuuurtsss!"
Shelma's ever-victorious and undefeated man has fallen.
"How is he?"
I urge the civil officer who checked on his condition to report back to me.
"It's no good. The blacksmith and the doctor can't do anything about it."
A needle-thin piece of metal seems to remain lodged in his right eye.
"They can't get rid of it?"
"It seems that it has probably penetrated from the right eye to the back of the head. And it is curved and turned over by the inner wall of the helmet."
"It’s horrifying just thinking about it."
"It's a miracle that he's even alive. It avoids bones and blood vessels so he doesn't bleed much."
Such a miracle cannot be called a miracle.
It would be better to call it hell
"Even the blacksmith was surprised that the sword that was stuck in it didn't break. It's not a metal that we know of."
"Oh, so we'll just have to break the helmet, then?"
"It's impossible to break General Marquez's helmet. It's too thick."
"Because it has a head in it. I guess you can melt it?"
"If you don't mind killing him, the blacksmiths can take out the metal that's stuck in it."
That's a problem
He is somehow an excellent and strong man.
"He can't be killed just yet. He's still got his uses."
"He's quite mad, you know?"
"If he's mad, isn't there a use for him? Like a solo attack on enemy territory."
For now, I need him to be quiet for now.
"Assign a lot of caretakers."
"With expendables?"
"Of course. Don't pick nobleman's daughters, okay?"
The group that injured him declared the founding of a nation in the dead desert.
The backing behind this is definitely Boldoi.
If they were recognized as a country by the East, we couldn't attack carelessly.
The iron mines there will have to wait.
But this is an opportunity for me
"What are the movements of Western countries?"
"I spread a rumor that there would be a shortage of iron ore. Just as the prince ordered."
"What was the public's reaction?"
"It seems that they are dissatisfied with your father and brother. Everything is going according to plan."
That's great
"Keep the military officers on their toes. Give them as much money as they want."
"I understand. Well then, Prince Daviz."
Right now, I'm still hiding behind my father and brother.
But I shall fly to the heights before long.
West and East.
All this land will be mine to claim as King of Shelma.
