Survival of the Demon King of Another World 566

Chapter 566 – Imperium of Man #3

“I made rough preparations. Currently, Admiral Barka is in a tight grip on the maritime side. Besides, because of my life as a pirate, I’ve made friends with the empire’s smugglers. In that state, I pretended to do business with smugglers I have them hypnotized and enchanted while doing so.”
“Ohhh! After all, Karti!”

You are doing a great job!

Barca, who used to be a female captain, has been running tremendously since receiving my power. A state of outstanding prominence in the world of the sea.

I fear that spying on the empire will become easier thanks to Barca.

“Very good. The routes and hideouts used by smugglers must be very secretive.”

Vera is right.

As it is a closed empire, the merchants who do smuggling there are bound to be very careful and secretive.

“It would be enough to identify and analyze all such places and create a route to safely inject and escape the spies.”
“That’s it!”

Vera too!

“Yes. That’s right.”

Carti also agrees.

“And of course, as much as I hypnotized the smuggling traders, I’ll be able to get their help and knowledge. Besides, due to the nature of the smuggling trade, there’s a possibility that the traders are connected. If I catch the other guys, it’ll be a bigger help in making a route.”
“Okay. Let’s leave this to Barca.”

For reference, there are several things like the map of the empire that Barka brought back. If you have the experience and guidance of smugglers, making a route won’t be too difficult.

“I’ll have to call Barca for this.”

Liliane is needed to summon Barca. I have to use teleport magic, so I can’t have them attend the meeting right now.

So we let it go and spent our time having other meetings.

As we talked like that, time flew by. When it was break time, everyone got up from their seats one by one, and I thought I was going to do something too.

“Haa. Are you really going to infiltrate that unknown human empire now?”

Reika spoke up for her.

“That’s right. If only the route is completed, we will infiltrate the empire along with the smugglers after training on a similar coast.”

From there, my spies will take care of it.

I will gather information.

“I’m a little envious.”
“Hmm?”

But Reika said that while looking up at the ceiling.

“Reika? Are you envious?”
“That’s what it is. What about us… Now that we’re at the top, we’re doing almost all administrative work, right?”
“Well, it is.”

Now, the country has developed to some extent and the administrative system has been established.

All of my early members have now become top performers.

“By the way, is there anything you envy?”
“Yeah. They’re playing directly on the field.”

Site.

“I miss it. Running in the field.”
“Ah. You mean fighting on the battlefield together.”
“Yes.”

Reika nodded her head and Vanessa agreed,

“Certainly. Because there’s no such thing these days. In the past, we fought well with a small army… To directly infiltrate a foreign country and engage in espionage activities. I’m envious of being able to make such a big contribution.”
“Vanessa.”

Was that what you were thinking?

Since everyone is only doing high-ranking jobs, they miss the days when they were running in the field with passion like the old days.

My country is the devil.

I didn’t even know my girls were worried about this.

“Don’t worry! If we go to war with the Empire in earnest, even ten limbs won’t be enough! Let’s rekindle our passion then!”

I am currently training civil servants. There are many people who have received a proper education and are outstanding in administrative work.

In the future, such people should be put in key positions. If I put such people in key positions, I too would be able to go on an expedition to the Empire with trusted officials.

“…”

It’s an expedition with my key executives who have been fighting together for a long time.

There is nothing to be afraid of.

*          *

Barca had most of the work done. As Carti ordered, he caught and hypnotized many smuggling merchants, obtained a map of the empire, and figured out their hiding places and maritime movement routes.

“I haven’t been there myself, but this route is pretty good. Besides, the smugglers have a close connection with the local officials. If you look at history, at first they literally made their fortune by smuggling in secret, but at some point it is said that they bought officials with bribes. Shape.”

As expected, the collusion between smuggling and government officials cannot be avoided.

“Then do the officials know about smuggling routes?”
“No. That’s not the case. But there’s no such thing as trust. The route of seeking bribes for officials and the route of smugglers who can get back money. It’s a situation where the two are mixed together.”
“Hoh. That’s amazing. A smuggler goes that far.”
“Even if you’re a smuggler, you have to have that level of ability. To touch a lot of money in a place like that.”

Apparently, these smugglers are veterans who have gone through all sorts of battles. So, he must be smuggling in a place like that and making a lot of money.

Anyway.

“Can you contact the local officials through the smugglers?”
“Of course.”

Even that much seems to be able to open the water for imperial spying to some extent.

“Smugglers know what the official likes. Get them sorted out and give them to me. I need to train the spies.”
“Yeah. I’ll do that.”

In this way, various ideas were embodied with Barca.

Inject spies through the smugglers, work there as they are, contact the officials through the smugglers’ arrangements, enchant them, hypnotize them, and spread their influence.

In the process, the missionary work of Culse will also be carried out.

“Okay. Let’s do it.”

It was decided to implement the specific details immediately.

Now, let’s start.

The day to set foot in the Empire has arrived.

*          *

He educated the spies on the information obtained through Barca, and also went to the beach where Barka had seen and conducted infiltration training.

That’s how my spies were reborn as talented people who would infiltrate the empire day by day, and finally.

“Now, the time has finally come!”

It became an operation failure.

“My dear spies! Today! Let’s go over to the Empire and show you your abilities!”
“Yes! Demon Lord!”
“You guys who have been trained so far have become very competent!

ㅡ Yes yes!

To my speech, the disciplined spies responded vigorously. Everyone’s eyes are determined.

They have been trained and trained over the years, and they have become skilled. I will be able to do my duty well.

“Then let’s hug each other before we go!”
“Ah…!”

I immediately hugged each of my spies and kissed them on the cheek. Everyone likes to blush again, but the morale has just become fully charged.

“Then board!”

ㅡRemember!

The spies turned around and boarded Barca’s ship.

Does it feel like going back home?

Originally, most of them were female pirates.

“Demon King! I’ll be back!”
“I’ll set up the ball and come back!”
“I love you, Demon King!”

The spies on the ship waved their hands at me and sent me a kiss. I also accepted the greeting and sent spies.

“Nice.”

Now, they will have to carry out difficult operations in enemy territory with extremely few allies. I’m very worried about that, but it’ll be fine. Didn’t you train thoroughly for him and drill all kinds of routes?

If you put your skills to work, you can do anything.

“Have a good trip!”

It will take some time to come back.

Gathering information, building contacts, and creating impact. It’s not something you can do in a day or two.

“It will take a long time.”

And after that, the second and third spies have to be sent again. If you do all that… It’s a few years if you can’t.

So.

In the meantime, we just have to wait here while concentrating on raising the national weight class and strengthening internal stability.

“Come on guys! Let’s go to our jobs!”

From recruiting troops to clearing farmland, there is so much to do!

*          *

Time goes by quickly.

After my kingdom got on track to a certain extent, it grew on its own without any major repairs, even if I just strengthened my inner strength.

But this is my kingdom story.

Almost all of the Shar-Oud Kingdom has passed into my hands, but it’s not perfect yet, so I haven’t been able to fully extend my administrative power to the provinces.

Not to mention the small kingdom. The capital of the small kingdom and the surrounding cities all came to be followed by the Culse Church and followed my order, but not to the provinces.

Well, no matter how many dragons you use, it’s not easy because the temperament of elves is different from that of humans. I just replaced all the high-ranking positions with my women.

Even though I’m having such a busy time.

“Hmm.”

There was no damage to the magic stone representing the safety of the succubus spies. It’s really fortunate. They say they’re still safe.

Safety confirmation is possible only with this.

Dream pass, contacting them through dreams and talking to them. It didn’t work, perhaps because the distance was too far. There may be other reasons, but it seems that it does not reach the empire from here.

I moved to the small kingdom for the experiment and tried to communicate, but it didn’t work out.

Likewise, Liliane’s teleport magic didn’t work either.

“It’s a problem.”

The two most trusted methods were blocked, so I had no choice but to wait. Anyway. I’ve been trying to figure out why this doesn’t work, but I haven’t had much success.

Is it because of the distance or is there something else?

Time passed while I was thinking about that.

“Char! Maang!”
“Uh, why Sharan?”
“The spies are back!”
“What!”

The spies sent to the empire have finally returned!
