I had put all my strength in that first strike, but Drake managed to parry it. “HAAAAAAAAHHH!!” “SSHAAAAAAAHH!!” With shouts that sounded more like roars, I swung my sword two, three times in succession. The clashing metal shook my eardrums violently. I…

If the lands continue to dry at this rate, the people will starve!” “The tax collections will also decrease severely, please reconsider…” “...I fail to see the problem. Even if a few plebs die, it can’t matter much, can it?” Inside Zeus — on the top floor of the tower of Babel, I was being forced to listen to the reports of my brainless subordinates.

Interlude 11 - The Dragon Soars to the Heavens “So this is the battlefield. What a majestic sight.” The imperial army to the right, the eastern province’s forces to the left. Our horses advanced proudly exactly in the middle of the two unmoving forces. I was carrying a spear wrapped in cloth. My new trusted blade, 【Siegfried】, was safe in the scabbard at my waist. “Hahaha, this is awesome!! Both armies are huge!!” “A few thousands of soldiers, simply standing there...that is enough to…

Chapter 20 - The Things Young Ninjas Say… Oboro, who I was meeting for the first time in months, was fanning himself, due to the sweat caused by his disguise, and sighed. “I heard you just returned from the southern islands, and you are already off to the west! Always the busy young master! What possesses you so?” “No jokes please, I’m actually worried about it.

Chapter 44 - Plotting in the DarkThat night, I visited the mansion designated by the old man. The building, located on the outskirts of the town, was completely dark: no lights were on, as if it was deserted. I had Sue and Sakuya return to the ship first: if anything happened, they were to leave me and escape from the port. I knocked on the backdoor five times, as the old man requested. “I have been expecting you. Please, this way.” The door was opened by the same old man I met earlier that day, now…
