Hello! Im Mitchell, the new governor for the North. A pleasure to et you~
The new governor ca to the village to pay his respects, at least that was what he said.
He was quite friendly, though it might be better to say he was kind of a light-hearted person.
anwhile, Dant-santhe forr governorwas beside with a raised eyebrow.
Ahm, well, Im Luke, the chief of this village. Thank you for coming all this way.
Oh, please sir, I dont know what Ill do if you humble yourself so. I am but a servant of House Albert.
He should have knowledge that I was expelled out of our noble house, yet he still showed respect as though I wasnt. That wasnt enough of a reason to let my guard down though.
According to Dant-san, the new governor was from a rather poor family. He wasnt in the army either. No, he rose up through the ranks because of his own work and managent skills. In other words, he was a self-made man.
Until recently, he served as the governor of a western county, but Dant-sans removal from office prompted a transfer.
Rather than being chosen by Raul-sama, I think he was chosen by the group of retainers who remained in the capital to support Raul-sama. I dont know much about him, but rumors about him all point to him being a capable person. My point is, he is capable enough to be entrusted the North in such a dire ti, so dont let his deanor fool you.
Dant-san whispered so to .
However, my villager appraisal skill told he didnt have any vile ulterior motives.
But, my, what a wonderful city you have here. Its pretty, lively, devoid of trash as well as vagabonds. Plus, I hear theres lots of delicious food, and public bathhouses that can be used at any ti. Of course, there are those dwellings that your citizens can comfortably live in. It makes so much sense why people are immigrating here one after another. In all honestly, I too want to live in a city like this.
Mitchell-san openly praised the village like that.
Well then, lets get down to business, shall we? I have a proposal for you, Luke-sama.
Mitchell-san suddenly started talking with a serious tone, and the air quickly beca tense.
This proposal, in all likelihood, was the real reason for his visit.
While Dant-san gave a look as though to say if he starts making stupid demands, leave the rest to , Mitchell-san continued talking.
Id like to ask you to make the North a part of this city.
As expected, we cant accephuh?
Dant-san reflexively refused, but then let out a baffled voice.
Make the North a part of this city? Not make this city a part of the North?
Hahaha. You are aware, of course, that this citys population, industry, and military might at this mont far exceeds that of Riesen, the largest city in all of the north, yes? You might even say its superior to all of the North combined. Given that, I dont think were in a position to demand anything from city like this. And just so were all on the sa page, Ive actually been told by my superiors to leave this city alone, aning this proposals my own.
Mitchell-san said so and then smiled mischievously.
As for the forr governor, his face twitched wildly.
A large number of the Norths people have already immigrated here anyway, and theres no sign that that trend will subside anyti soon. If left unattended, therell be no one left in the North. If thats the case, Id rather we join your ranks sooner rather than later.
B-but can you really make that decision on your own?
So long as they dont find out, its fine, right?
Wha
Ignoring Dant-san who was at a loss for words, Mitchell-san smiled and proceeded to make requests.
Is it possible to make the dwellings in your city back in Riesen? And those fields where incredible crops can grow? And while Im at it, wed very much appreciate those public bathhouses.
S-stop spouting nonsense. Even with Luke-samas Gift, Riesens too far
yeah, its possible.
Eh?
The size of the villagethat is, the area where my village skills could be used in and not only the area where people livedwas now larger than the whole North and I didnt seem to have any problem using my skills anywhere within it.
Based on that, distance didnt seem to matter as long as it was within a part of the village.
Of course, this move would also an that I would be making all the citizens of the North my villagers.
so, are you sure?
TL notes: I guess by the way I translated the North, one can say that Mitchell had served as governor of the West. I think its better to leave it as western county until further context reveal otherwise.
