Chapter 339 – If Anyone Touches the Little Fermaten (5)
Starlight is falling.
No, golden light falls.
The countless golden lights pouring from the sky become bullets, arrows that pierce the head and heart.
“Wow!!”
A wizard died young.
With a gold coin stuck on the top of his head, he fell unconscious.
It’s money.
Money falls from the sky.
When you draw a circle with your thumb and index finger, round gold coins with a diameter just enough to cover the top rain down from the sky.
In order to obtain that gold coin, the Marquis started a war.
It is said that he earned several times more than the marquess’ monthly budget in just one day at Fermaten.
If you can make that kind of profit a day, how much money can you make if it is done more systematically and efficiently?
Even if he just takes that gold coin and puts it in the warehouse, the marquis will be able to live happily for hundreds of years.
-I intend to distribute the kingdom’s currency in earnest.
However, the king tried to do something useless with those gold coins.
No matter how cumbersome and common a gold coin is to carry around, a gold coin is still a gold coin.
Although the gold coins from the Infinite Labyrinth cannot be processed into other forms, the numbers written on the outside of the gold coins have had enough value as face value.
Gold coins are also used in the empire.
The moment he hinted that he would exchange those gold coins as he was pleased, the Marquis made up his mind.
Let’s oppress the king who had just taken power, unite the nobles who were dissatisfied with the king, and take over Fermatten.
They also knew better than anyone else that a huge amount of money was pouring out of Fermaten.
The nobles could not have known that a huge amount of money would be poured in just by turning succubi into prostitutes.
In the end, it all started with the desire for money, gold coins, and wealth.
There were times when I couldn’t see Permaton doing well.
It’s not like Fermaten’s power is growing day by day.
It was also unpleasant to see the people of the territory boasting about it, saying that it was nice and cheap to live in Fermaten.
Most of all, she didn’t like the idea of a young brat with only cursed blood, relying only on her dick, and pretending that she was some kind of king of the frontier.
So a war began.
All you had to do was create a justification, and that justification actually worked effectively.
But.
“Damn… “
I didn’t envision a future like this.
“What the fuck is this?”
Even though the Marquis uttered foul language that only commoners would say, he did not even realize that he had said it.
“Marquis, you have to avoid it!”
Gold coins falling from the sky.
In that famous painting, the goddess gives down gold coins from the sky as a blessing, and people reach out for the gold coins and are happy.
“Aaaaah!! It hurts, it hurts…!”
“Ugh, protect your head!! Take your helmet! Block your head with your shield!!”
“Get off the horse! If the horse is right, wow!!”
The reality was chaos.
“It’s like hell.”
When you die and go to the underworld, the goddess of the underworld will ask you.
How did you die?
How did he die?
So how should I answer that?
You raised soldiers to punish a traitor, but were killed by the enemy’s ridiculous strategy?
-You’re lying! You were killed by a gold coin thrown from the sky by succubi!
“Fuck.”
Where in the world can such a ridiculous death exist?
Is there any place in the world where elite soldiers, knights, wizards, and nobles die like that?
“This damn Fermatton-“
Per— billion.
The moment I looked up at the sky without realizing it.
Something golden stuck right between my eyes.
Along with the tremendous pain, my eyes sparkled with gold.
“Marquis!!”
The sounds calling out to him slowly faded away, and the Marquis could only see one thing.
High in the sky.
The succubus, who was flapping her wings and holding a cylinder like a dick towards herself, was just smiling.
* * *
“Count!”
“You got it.”
The movements of the noble alliance soldiers outside the castle walls began to slowly lose their structure.
“Shall I give you instructions to descend?”‘
“No. Keep attacking. Keep shooting until all the gold coins in your gold coin bag are used up.”
It is impossible to let down your guard.
No matter how your opponent begins to collapse, you must not let down your guard until he or she is completely dead.
Actually-
Wow!
With a huge explosion, the castle wall collapses.
The wizards of the noble alliance use explosive magic one after another, and the castle wall, which was unable to withstand, eventually collapses, creating a hole from below.
Shoot ㅡㅡㅡㅡ!!
A stream of water flows from inside the collapsing castle wall.
The mana water that was filled inside leaks out in an instant.
“Oops!”
At that moment, my heart sank.
Even though it was an enemy, I was afraid that people might be swept into the hole in the collapsed castle wall, sending shivers down my spine.
However.
“…Ha.”
Was it fortunate that the water inside did not rise higher than the shoulders of an adult man?
Or is it because the stream of water swept away not the people, but the armor and weapons they discarded when they surrendered?
Or is it because many soldiers have already succeeded in climbing up the castle wall to be embraced by the succubus?
“…That’s a good thing.”
Few people were swept out.
Some were struggling and being swept away by the water.
However, when they saw the castle walls collapsing, they struggled against the current with all their might to survive, and the succubi jumped from the sky and rescued them one by one.
Kwa—–!!
With the explosion, the entire castle wall began to collapse.
As if a dam was destroyed, the entire castle wall built above began to collapse as soil was lost through a large hole from below.
However.
[Report! We are safe!]
[Joanna unit, no problem. We safely moved to the next wall.]
[Barbas immediately created a scaffolding! We will treat the injured immediately!]
“…Haaa.”
No matter how much the castle wall collapsed, it was already under constant attack even before it collapsed, and the succubi began retreating from the moment they began their aerial assault.
Fortunately, all the knights were safe.
“…Notify the entire army. From now on.”
I pointed to the noble allied forces who were still confused as to what to do and what to do.
“Get it all sorted out.”
Wow!!
The beginning of a counterattack.
No, it is time to put an end to the war they started.
* * *
Half a day has passed.
The battle is over.
The leaders of the noble union were killed by being struck by gold coins, were cut to death by soldiers who came down from the castle walls and charged in, were discovered while hiding among the soldiers, or only tore off some of the teleportation scrolls and ran away.
And the battle ended with our victory.
From the moment the enemy entered our territory, they were already fighting a battle in which their defeat was certain.
Crisis?
There is no way something like that exists.
We poured so much money into the budget that Fermaten’s warehouse was almost empty, so it was impossible for us to lose.
“Wealth goes and people come.”
Although Fermaten’s warehouse was empty, there were so many people left that there was not enough space even if they were crammed into the warehouse.
And their name is ‘Prisoners’ of Fermaten.
“Nero. How many people are ‘seeking conversion’?”
“About a thousand people.”
Nero smiled bitterly and handed me a briefly summarized report.
“There are a lot.”
“A lot, right?”
“If 1,000 people decided to become citizens of Permaten, that’s a lot. There are about 14,000 people who haven’t decided yet, but it doesn’t really matter.”
Because I decided right away how to treat them.
“Are you going to kill them? Or are you going to rebirth them all as succubi?”
“If you are a prisoner and point a knife at a Fermaton, you will be killed. If you want to become a succubus, you must do so.”
“You say it as if you won’t do that.”
“Exactly. I wouldn’t do that.”
I have no intention of killing her, nor do I have any intention of turning her into a succubus.
“They are important guests of our Yas Island, and they are the dicks that will provide vitality to the succubi.”
“Count… Express yourself a little.”
“It’s not wrong, right? Hehe.”
It has already been said that it is a very precious human resource that should not be killed.
“Nero. Has there ever been a time in history when there were this many prisoners after a war?”
“…No.”
“Then, it will be a problem to feed them right now. Look, I can’t feed them with gold coins.”
Even though you can buy bread with gold coins, you cannot make enough bread to feed 15,000 people three times a day.
“Well, there is only one way.”
I pointed in the direction of the kingdom.
“It’s a counter charge.”
“Yes?”
“Use the prisoners and have them head back to the kingdom.”
“Hey, Count?”
“I already thought about the situation after the battle.”
“So… ?”
Nero’s eyes shake greatly.
“Are you planning to start a war against the kingdom? Using prisoners?”
“War is war. A bloodless, invisible war.”
“…Please tell me the conclusion first. Don’t spin it around.”
“Hehe. Are you worried that the people will get hurt? It’s okay. There is a way.”
I picked up Nero and pressed my lips to her forehead.
“Just ask them to bring their families.”
“…Yes?”
“If you want to live in Permaten, just ask them to bring their families. In the end, what they want to protect most is their family.”
A new life in Permaten with my family.
“Well… Should we start by rebirthing her wife as a succubus as a benefit?”
The benefits of reporting a move into the Kingdom of Permaton County will be abundant.
“To a man who has no wife, let him give an elf to be his wife.”
