"You do remember me, Taichi," said Sean, sitting in a chair close to Tobias, where his friend was still in shock from Sean's confession."H-How did you end up in this world?" asked Tobias.Sean smiled. He looked at Tobias attentively, his right hand seemingly clutching a glass of water. Sean had never told this story to anyone; Taichi was the first to hear it.If he met Akihiko in this world, maybe Sean would tell her about it. However, until this moment, he hadn't found the woman's presence, no matter how hard he tried."The Ueda continues to attack the Yamaguchi territory. They know the clan is no longer protected by you," Sean said."Every week, there was fighting in the outer regions of Yamaguchi until in the seventh week after your death, Yamaguchi Castle was completely besieged by Ueda's forces," Sean added.Tobias listened carefully to the story, which had a huge impact he never expected. If only he could have sensed Ueda's attack mor

Tobias drove on, away from the Norman Kingdom's border post. Sean was still there, watching Tobias' departure along with the border guard soldiers. Until Tobias' back disappeared from his sight, Sean left the place.He turned his body around, stepping closer to his horse. Sean's steps stopped when the border guard soldier leader called out to him."Can you make sure everything will be okay?" the man asked, looking worried since what he was doing was a crime.Sean looked back, looking at the man with seriousness, "You don't have to worry. I'm sure it's gonna be alright."The border guard leader's eyes narrowed. He could only hope with Sean that none of this would reach the palace. Sean said goodbye, waved to the ten soldiers, and rode off on his mount, leaving the place."What do we do now?" asked one of the soldiers, asking their leader.The man turned around, walking toward the border gate. His eyes gazed intently at the wilderness before h

***One week later.The sun was setting down. Tobias and Felicia rode ahead on their horses, followed by Liam, leading the way to Leafvile. Since it would be difficult to travel at night, Tobias decided to camp after finding a large grass field.He found a spacious place that was suitable for camping. Tobias turned to Liam, which the man immediately understood. He turned around, riding his horse backward to inform the rest of the troops.Tobias' return journey to Leafvile was expected to take longer than expected, considering he was traveling with 20,000 of Vitrea's troops from the trade agreement with Vitrea.Tobias needed to make sure they were not left behind, as well as the fact that they were walking while wearing their armor. It was matters like that that Tobias was focused on, so he couldn't make his way quickly to Leafvile."I'm worried about their logistics," Felicia said.Even though the troops were carrying seven wagons ful

Three hours later. As the night grew late, the moon rose steadily in its beautiful, perfectly round shape. Tobias stood alone before the five earthen mounds where his five soldiers were buried. It was a much different scene than at the camp center. The soldiers partied, drank, ate meat to their heart's content, and had sex one after another with the bitches sent from Lakebarrow. The number of women reached 1,000. Ubaldo hired all the women in the city to satisfy the soldiers' lust. Tobias wasn't interested in that at all. Instead, he was busy pondering, figuring out what to do next. Liam arrived with a man, fully armored. He glanced to his right and left, searching for the whereabouts of his lord. "Lord Tobias," Liam called out as he found Tobias' presence. The young man immediately turned around, looking at Liam, who arrived with a man. Liam explained that the man beside him was the leader of the city guard; he was Hannes. "He's Hanne

*** Five days later. Tobias, along with his troops, continued to make his way through the country roads toward Leafvile. However, before reaching his main destination, he had to visit Carlisle as Beatrix had told him. The young man sat on a horse, walking along with Liam and Felicia at the front. Right behind the three were 27,500 troops consisting of the two city armies, Vitrea and Lakebarrow. There was no significant dispute between them. The closeness began to be formed because they had abandoned the identity of city soldiers but were now part of the Archibald Nobility soldiers. They were all proud that Tobias' noble title was much higher in status than their previous leader. The soldiers were confident that Tobias could give them a better life than they were currently living. Whenever Tobias' troops marched through the village streets with tens of thousands of soldiers, all the villagers spontaneously watched it like a military parade. Even some village chiefs looked terrifie
