by fnovelpiaIt is said that when Henry Neville managed to escape and return after the battle, there were only seven knights left.
The rest were all dead or disbanded.
It was such a gruesome battle. Mayer County also suffered great damage.
‘It was a close gap. ‘I could have lost.’
Henry Neville threatened the friendly forces with perfect command even in unfavorable situations. To be honest, if the soldiers were the same, our team would lose.
So far, we have won against many great generals. So it’s easy to be mistaken, but I’m actually not a master craftsman.
If I were to calmly quantify my leadership ability based on the battle results so far, it would be around 90. In other words, if you were better than me, you could be considered S-level, and if you were worse than me, you could be considered A-level.
Nevertheless, the reason I have been successful so far is because Leona created the situation well. Leona was the type that always started with a win, so she always won regardless of her leadership stats.
For a moment, I was conceited of my victories so far and went into a head-to-head match with unfounded confidence that I could win against Henry Neville. So, of course, it was inevitable that we would lose.
‘I should have been a little more self-objective.’
Of course, I know full well that I am excellent. This is not to be conceited, but looking at it calmly, he has abilities that are far superior to average.
But there were still many monstrous people above me, and Henry Neville was one of them.
‘I found out why I felt uneasy before the battle.’
me. Leadership 90. Lucille. Leadership in the original was 90. It could have been improved by 2-3 levels through repeated regression. Asilia, leadership 61. Felix, leadership 50.
Yes. There are no great generals in our military.
There is no one who can stand against Henry Neville.
Of course, this battle was won, but it was the result of Lucille’s 100-level intellect, not her leadership skills.
And the ruse doesn’t always work.
“Where is a competent general with a leadership level of about 95?~”
I want nothing more than Henry Neville.
The only generals who surpassed Henry Neville were, at most, Albrecht or Wolff, Albrecht’s one-time rival.
Lucille, who was working on paperwork next to me, looked at me inadvertently expressing my sincerity and said,
“How about Agnes?”
Agnes. I also knew who that person was.
She is currently the leader of a large mercenary group and is an outstanding heroine.
With leadership skills of 95 and strength of 94, he is the ideal commander I am looking for in terms of ability.
but.
“He can’t do it.”
“Why?”
“Well, I’ve tried it a lot. No way.”
Agnes’ recruitment difficulty is truly extreme.
Even if you somehow manage to get hired, you will have to resign soon as your loyalty declines.
Even if we stop talking about the game, looking at Agnes’s actions in reality, we can see that it will be difficult to hire her.
He had been a vassal of Wofford for 5 years from 15 years ago, and was forced out as if he had been kicked out of Wofford, and then served the Wolf family.
He worked for the Wolf family for three years, but he did not do well there and was kicked out, so he served the Albrecht family.
He could not even complete 6 months in the Albrecht family, and after that, he was a mercenary for 5 years.
Since then, he has been working as a mercenary to become a vassal of a military commander. Currently, he is a large-scale mercenary group of over 2,000 people who is conducting war projects by visiting places where war is taking place around the world.
In a word, it is not the type of person to be subordinate to others.
‘In the original work, Agnes worked as a mercenary for her entire life and then died.’
It’s unfortunate that a master general with 95 leadership skills and 94 military strength is at best a mercenary, but Agnes was not the type of person to be subordinate to others.
That’s why I had given up on Agnes.
“Brother.”
“Yes, Lucille.”
“Can you trust me and follow just one thing?”
“Of course. Tell me anything.”
“First, give 400,000 songs to Felix.”
400,000 songs. The moment I heard that, I couldn’t help but gape.
My territory is 3.2 million songs. With 400,000 grains, it is a territory that can accommodate 10,000 people, and is one-eighth of my territory. It was like handing over such a huge territory to Felix.
“But… If that happens, the balance of power among subordinates will be ruined. Felix becomes number 2 in our army. Are you okay?”
The reason I asked Lucille if she was okay was simple.
Until now, Lucille has been recognized as number 2 in name and reality, but if 400,000 songs are given to Felix, Felix will be ranked higher than Lucille.
The hierarchy becomes a mess.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry about me, just take it down.”
“If it’s okay with you… What is the meaning here?”
Felix may be a military commander, but he is an administrator. I don’t think releasing 400,000 songs will do anything great… ?
“It’s not like I know anything either. but… ”
“Just?”
“Only one out of 18 regressions. Something strange happened. I’m just trying to reproduce it.”
Lucille smiled meaningfully.

next day.
Felix was dumbfounded by the sudden drop of 400,000 songs.
“I… 400,000?”
“Yes. Congratulations.”
“But… What did I do? All I did was take care of a little administrative work.”
“This is considering your future potential, so don’t feel pressured and take it.”
“If you say so, I will accept it… ”
Felix was just confused. How did this happen? Is it okay for me to receive this? Could it be poison? It was such a ridiculous thought.
“My lord, I am sorry as soon as I received this much territory.”
“Yes?”
“Can I take some time off?”
Take a vacation.
This means that if Felix rests, I will have to take on the enormous amount of work that Felix was doing.
I don’t want to send it away. I want to make you work under me for the rest of your life. but…
“Well, Mr. Felix is not the type of person to want a useless vacation.”
“Thank you! I will definitely bring good results!”
Good results? Going on vacation? What do you mean it’s going to be amazing?

Meanwhile, Agnes.
Agnes, who was working as a mercenary under Clemens in Albrecht’s army, was fighting against Albrecht with a troop of 2,000 mercenaries, helping Clemens’ army, which repeatedly advanced and retreated.
‘Wow, Albrecht-kun is really strong. This is my first time seeing such a strong group in my life.’
Agnes was exhausted from dealing with Albrecht, but she was also satisfied at the same time.
‘As expected, being a mercenary suits me.’
When you were a noble, you had to watch what your superiors thought, but now that you are a mercenary, other people watch what you think. Agnes was very satisfied with this difference.
‘Of course, there are problems with my personality as well.’
I didn’t know it when I was young, but as the same thing happened over and over again, Agnes was able to understand. The fact that you are a person with a broken personality. The fact that wherever you go, you cause trouble.
‘But that doesn’t mean I have any intention of catering to incompetent people.’
Agnes is stubborn. But competent. So there was only one way. Rather than receiving orders from others, I was in a position to give orders.
And the best way to do that is to become a mercenary, not a noble.
A mercenary does not need to take orders from others. Of course, some instructions will be given, but in detail, your orders will be completely followed. Therefore, for Agnes, being a mercenary was like a calling.
‘There’s just one thing that bothers me. It’s a pity that we can’t go to the end as mercenaries.’
Agnes wanted to test the extent of her talents. I wanted to stand at the pinnacle of samurai. I wanted to fight a similar enemy using a large army of 100,000 men. Like Clemens of Albrecht’s army. However, from the mercenary’s point of view, it was just a shame that this was not possible.
‘If I had the same heart, I would like to become an officer at Krusenstein, which is expanding towards the world… Leona is the tyrant of the world. There will definitely be a conflict with me.’
It’s a combination of a character-breaker and a tyrant. Just thinking about it makes me feel dizzy.
‘okay. Let’s eat pine needles today too.’
Aren’t pine needles a healthy food for songchung? With that thought in mind, the moment I was about to go into battle again today.
“Agnes.”
“What is it?”
“There is a guest. It is said to have come from the Carter area.”
“Carter District?”
If it’s Carter’s army, it’s probably Franz Mayer’s subordinates. I remembered him as a popular person.
“Why such a person?”
“They say they want to scout Agnes.”
Agnes chuckled. This was clearly not Franz Mayer’s suggestion. A person that smart would know that it wouldn’t work anyway. The motivated young man in the Carter County Army is probably doing something foolish. Thinking so, Agnes waved her hand.
“Go away.”
“G, really?”
“What if I get it for real! Give it a reasonable excuse and send it back.”
“Yes.”
Monarchs cannot be trusted. When applying, they pretend to take out both the liver and gallbladder, but when they get into trouble, they throw it away.
I’ve already been fooled a lot. I won’t be fooled this time. It was Agnes who made that promise.
