Chapter 62: The Returned Letter Chapter 64: Attack on Wife

Translator: Nat Editor: Beansprout

Aegir POV

All troops move out!

On my orders, the eastern independent army formed into ranks and headed south onto the highway . Our objective is the maintenance of peace in Count Radhaldes territory as well as my own . When we entered Erichs territory, the army spreads out horizontally, lining up and marching .

If you think about it tactically, its such an idiotic formation .

Stretching the army sideways and advancing is the height of stupidity . On top of being able to be spotted by enemies from far away, it is vulnerable to all sorts of attacks .

Our goal is to bluff . There shouldnt be any problems .

Leopolt stands beside me . The purpose of this stupid march is for it to be witnessed by everyone .

Both thieves and villagers will be able to see these 2000 soldiers if they are closeby .

The shady ones will be shaken up and those who arent will feel secure . That in itself will be effective enough .

The soldiers were worried about the villagers coming to riot, but nothing happened . Even though its against my will, the warped rumors about me are doing their job .

His strength is like that of a fierce god .

With the town behind him, he didnt take a single step backwards against the approaching tens of thousands of enemies while cutting down 200 people . He is kind to women, but those who stir up unrest will be mercilessly crushed .

During the establishment ceremony, it seemed to me that the soldiers eyes towards me seemed scared for some reason . If a person identical to that of the descriptions in the rumors appeared, I would be scared too . Its Erichs fault, since the rumors originated from him .

From now on, the soldiers will get to work under my command . Eventually, they will see the truth and get used to it .

Leopolt, divide the troops and exterminate the bandits . I will leave Erichs territory to you while I will continue to head to Rafen and clean up my territory . It should be over in a week .

Yes . I understand .

Leopolt will take command of the troops of the eastern independent army as the vice-commander .

And me!? What am I supposed to do!?

Celia appeals next to me . Theres the difference in the size of horses too, but her head is positioned in the perfect place, although shed get angry if I say shes in the perfect position to be my armrest .

You will take the spear cavalry and stay vigilant on the outer circumference of the main squad until we reach Rafen . Inspect as many forests and brushes and other suspicious places as possible, that will probably cause the bandits to run away .

For the small number of thieves, a group of cavalry is a nightmare . Just by seeing their appearance, they will run away in a hurry .

You dont need to refrain yourself for the escaping bandits . If possible, eliminate all of them .

Roger that! Cavalry, follow me!

Following Celias orders, the spear cavalry gallops off . At first, the soldiers looked down on her, but after she knocked out two large men who rubbed her ass, they acknowledged her . The finishing moves were a kick in the crotch, and a high kick to the chin .

Along with the growth of Celias body, shes also steadily growing stronger . She has always been a genius at fighting but was limited in what she could do because of her small stature . As long as her body grows, it looks like things will turn out splendidly .

Her parts as a woman are also growing, she has surpassed Maria in the breast race and has gotten in range of Kuu and Catherine . The enthusiastic Celia is already eager to overthrow Nonna, but thats a reckless challenge . A man may become a king, but a king cannot become a god . This is similar to that .

When I was thinking about Celia and the breast competition, a messenger came . Celia, who just separated from us earlier, has immediately discovered bandits, and seems to be attacking them . They sent a messenger to give a report as a precaution, but they are overwhelmingly advantageous, and reinforcements seem unnecessary .

Even if I were to send reinforcements, it would be difficult for them to keep up with the galloping cavalry .

As I thought, the spear cavalry are quite convenient to use .

The spear cavalry that Celia took with her earlier is just as their name suggests cavalry equipped with spears . Their weapon is a powerful and large spear but comparatively, their armor is relatively weak, being only leather armor . The horses are also not quite protected and are pretty much bare naked .

Its like equipping a common light cavalry, used in scouting and as messengers, with a full-blown spear . If long spearmen challenge them up front or if they become a target for the archers, they will suffer large amounts of casualties . In battles with cavalry alike, they will also be put in a disadvantageous position .

However, they are lightweight and are able to move faster than heavy cavalry who have donned metal armor . Their horses will also be less fatigued so their endurance will be higher . Still, they are sufficient enough to do things like jousting . For a territory with such a wide area, they are the ideal unit to cover the ground quickly .

Gaining a full-scale military, the public order of Erichs and my territory will improve rapidly . The clean up operation will pretty much destroy all the bandits within my territory in one weeks time since my arrival .

Meanwhile, the ones directly responsible for the misconducts committed by the government officials, which are spreading like disease within Erichs territory, are being removed . With soldiers moving around within the territory, they cant do things like setting up illegal checking stations or collaborate with unlawful people in committing robbery .

Theres nothing I can do about the private tax set up by the acting official though .

Just by reducing the type of exploitations, the citizens will take it as good news . In the first place, it is none of our business what happens to the citizens of other feudal lords . Our only job is to maintain the peace .

Thats true, but I want Celia to become a lit
