I Become a Rogue Lord in a World Where Only I Level Up

When the king said this, Eurasian, who knew it was not good to continue, brought up a new proposal.

Help me and I promise you five times the annual tribute!　Your Majesty, this is the limit of Rosellen.

"Five times the annual tribute?

The king showed some pretense of thinking, and then opened his mouth with a face that still did not like it.

"It's not like we're sending reinforcements to get more tribute. As Ronen says, we can't afford it. We can't afford it!

Eurasian became desperate when the king again refused.

*

Rosellen was a troubled country.

Shortly after the start of the war, all the nobles, fearing the barbaric invasion of King Brigitte, fled.

However, even under such circumstances, it was not easy to perish.

Because there was a presence that fought to the end with Bridget, denouncing the fleeing soldiers and the public.

An entity that has had the support of the public since childhood.

Her natural charm drew cheers when she gave her speeches, and her popularity grew daily.

And she did not disobey that trust.

I fought on the front lines to protect my country.

Eventually, she took the lead and was killed in action.

It was only because of her power that Roserun was able to hold on for months after her death, as Roserun perished less than a week later.

Of course, so far the history of the game.

Her name is Rosellen Eurasia.

Now in front of me she was kneeling like that.

Rosellen Eurasian]

Age: 20 years]

Martial force: 87]

Intelligence: 57]

Conducting: 95]

I came to ask for reinforcements purely out of a single-minded desire to protect the country.

You don't know that just sending reinforcements can lead to many political struggles.

If we had taken in the nobles and then asked for reinforcements, we wouldn't have been turned down in one shot like this.

Looking at the ability values, it seems that a high degree of attractiveness was evident in the ability to subdue soldiers and command them.

In fact, there is even anecdotal evidence that it fought Brigitte with its power.

He also seemed to have mana qualities, given his high military strength figures.

I'd say he's more of an honest warlord type than a political one.

What, you've come to the capital too?

All this is not a mere coincidence.

I've already been in King's Landing for a few days.

The war between Rosellen and Bridget is an important one for me as well.

I've been to the capital for a while now, and my chamberlain and maidservant, whom I had bribed during an earlier visit, had informed me of the envoy's visit and I had come to seek an audience with the king at once.

A situation that was evidently refused.

Princess Eurasia was on her knees, biting her lip at the king's refusal.

Her nobility drifted from her long blonde hair.

It's like she has a charm that would make anyone fall in love with her.

A noble charm that makes you feel like you're out of reach, too.

Of course, she has nothing to do with me.

My focus was on reinforcements.

Because Lunan should send reinforcements to Rosellen!

"Your Majesty, I think I should send reinforcements. Leave it to me to lead the reinforcements!

When I suddenly called for reinforcements in a situation where all the nobles were against it, Eurasia looked at me with a surprised look on her face, and the kings and nobles reacted the same way. The king and the nobles reacted in the same way.

'What nonsense!　I don't have the power to send reinforcements to Lunan now!

Ronen hissed at me like that.

'Yes, indeed!　Where are you going to go, who should be guarding the signs!

Then the king also said something like a child.

The King of Lunan is a coward.

But he was also terribly greedy.

It will be quiet for a year or so," he said, "no matter how much Naluyah can't move fast enough to lose 70,000 men. Isn't that right, Duke Ronen?　I have heard that you have sent spies,

"Be that as it may, this is not a situation to get involved in another country's war!

When I asked, Ronen shook his head again, recoiling.

This is why Lunan is no good.

I honestly don't care what happens to Rosellen, I don't care what happens to him.

In fact, I'm the one who convinced him to send reinforcements, and I'm the one who owes him a favor.

The fact that you could be on my side just by helping me.

Just Rosellen is geographically adjacent to many countries. Not a very nice land.

In that respect, Brigitte was different. There are several islands in a row along the coast.

The land was quite suitable for secretly raising an army.

Rosellen Eurasia.

With her, you can denounce Rosellen's military strength.

With her troops, we will stop Bridget, and with a force led from Lunan, we will conquer Bridget!

The king of Brigitte leads his own soldiers to attack Roserun.

That's the history as I know it.

Brigitte succeeds in destroying Roserun, but is then attacked by Nalja and destroyed.

What if I can't do what Nalja has done?

The unification of the continent will be difficult.

There are various ways to bring down Bridget, if only they could kill the king who attacked them directly.

Because the king of Bridget is not an S-class entity like the king of Nalja.

I couldn't pass up this opportunity.

Because this was my chance to gain someone else's land with someone else's army while saving my own!

"Your Majesty, my goal is not Roserun. If you leave the reinforcements to me, I will stop Bridget from invading Roserun, then I will counterattack and destroy Bridget. When Bridget belongs to Your Majesty, Narya will have nothing to worry about. You will be the very victor of this age!

It was natural to be intrigued by the story that the greedy king could get his hands on Brigitte.

Rosellen is a country that pays tribute anyway.

If you can even get your hands on Brigitte there, you will certainly gain a lot of power.

The greedier you are, the easier it is to bite the bigger bait.

I have a tactic for you. I have a tactic, the one that Nalja's schemer used to march to the royal city of Lunan. If I couldn't do what Narya's schemer could do, I wouldn't have a face to show you. At that time, I will return my lands to His Majesty and return to being an ordinary nobleman!

When he said that much, the king gulped down his spit and hurriedly asked back.

"Brigitte is going to be your, no, Lunan's?　All that land?

"On your left, Your Majesty!

As soon as I assured him, the king made eye contact with Ronen.

He looked puzzled, and Ronen didn't know what to do.

'The last war did little damage to the southern territories. We sent troops late, but the war was already over. If you can gather only 50,000 troops from the southern territories, I will launch a counterattack against Brigitte who invaded Rosellen!

It can't be helped that as soon as Bridget is destroyed, it will become Lunan's land.

I don't have the manpower and the manpower to manage the land now. It's not time for us to be independent yet.

Of course, we'll just leave it with you for a while after we take it.

After the great conquest of Nalja, as soon as the royal capital of Lunan was occupied, it was going to absorb the lands of Brigitte as they were administered by Lunan, without shedding a drop of blood.

A strategy that allows you to target large areas of land without using your own troops at all?

For that, we must first destroy Brigitte.

You never know if you'll succeed or fail!

That's why this world is even more interesting.

The king looked at me as if he had succumbed to temptation.

That's just as well.

It's an irresistibly lustful proposition, right?

*

In the audience room where Ronen and two others remained, the king said.

"Is it true that there is no movement in Naluyah?

Yes. If all you have to gather is the Southern Guard, you'll be fine for a while. Erchin says he will settle the matter within six months, so ....... I thought there was even less to worry about. The northern territory has been rebuilt by Erhit, and this time we have sent spies to read the enemy's movements.

I see. Then go to ....... Are you sure you want to go after Brigitte's land?

Erwin will be able to do it. In the last war, the enemy strategist who had aimed at the royal city of Lunan returned home without being able to do anything. If you use that tactic on Brigitte, who lost her king, you'll find ....... I thought it would be too much to handle. Of course, that is if we can kill the king of Bridget with Rosellen, but I think it's worth a try.

Kukku. I guess so. It's well worth a try. Erhin is even going to give back the territory. Fair enough. I'm open to such a gamble. Brigitte or ....... Kuh-hah!

Towards the delighted king Ronen carefully opened his mouth.

"But, Your Majesty. If Brigitte comes into possession, Erhin should be recalled to King's Landing at once. Do not share the territory with him!

Of course. I just want Erwin to play a role in fighting Nalja. Then we'll kill him when the enemy of the premonition is gone. Kukkuh. We don't need it unless we are of the Lunan royal family. That's why I didn't give them any rewards in the last war by bringing up the subject of titles. Hmph.

Duke Ronen is a relative of the Lunan royal family.

That's the same fellow.

He, too, was laying bare his desire to make unclaimed land his fiefdom.
