The armament this time, was only Walther PPS in one of my armpit and thigh . I have a lot of guards, but in order to play the aristocrat’s lady, it would be bad if my equipment is exposed .
Besides, there is a high possibility of getting attack, if you try to use weapons . Perhaps it’s very outdated, but it’s necessary to pay close attention, because the opponent may have guns, perhaps they may also have a handgun .
Like for example, the flintlock or matchlock type .
Although I am going to deal with the gap, I’m not giving any consideration for safety .
In addition I am armed with, 2 IC recorders, in the bosom .No, the evidence is important, you know .
For other evidence preservation, just like the case of Adelaide’s debut, I taught video recording and still picture shooting methods to the servants . We plan to shoot from the shadow of the soldiers, so as not to stand out .
Because it is suspicious, if it’s too close, it would be troublesome if we get attacked, because they thought we had weapons in place .
But recently the magnification and the brightness are amazing, so you can take a good picture without problems, maybe .
And also, clinging on my shoulder, a VHF handy type radio .
Yeah, back in the mansion, my Butler Anton is going to push the send switch of the HF fixed machine and the VHF fixed machine facing each other .
This doesn’t look like a weapon, so it wouldn’t cause their vigilance or danger .=========================
When I went out of the Viscount residence, everyone is already assembled .
Their small boat left the ship and heading straight for us . A total 3 boats, 1 per ship . And about 20 people per boat .
About half of them are rowers, but of course, they are also combat personnel .
A total of 60 people, huh… .
Well, as it lands on an unfamiliar place, where you can’t understand the words, it’s a reasonable amount of people, don’t you think? .
It’s a sufficient force, and that number of people will not hinder the navigation of the ship, even if they lost .
Most of my knowledge about this level of civilization, such as sailing ships, on-board weapons, and the way people think, comes from the [horn-blowers] series I read when I was a junior high school student, novels about pirates, marine adventures, and so on .
Everything is just a speculation from the description of those works that are fiction .
That’s why the possibility of a mistake is quite high, but it’s okay, because there is the ability to transfer .
…Maybe .
============================
Now, let’s head to the beach .
If you guys have a good attitude, then I will invite you to the Viscount’s mansion .
But if your attitude is bad, then this will be the end of your journey .
Yamano Territory’s only fishing village, is a sandy beach .
The young Feudal Lord with her arms crossed, the benevolent Viscount, Mitsuha Von Yamano .
36 soldiers aligned in the back, the officers are standing on both sides, the servants and personnel who are filming, are lurking in the shadow of the crowd .
In spite of his strong opposition, Mitsuha placed her Deputy Commander Wiilliam behind, the reason is『What if the top two are standing side by side and they got suddenly attacked and are both are defeated?』 And sadly William couldn’t refute to Mitsuha’s point of view .
That Willem was shaking his head in the words of Mitsuha, 『If my body seems to be blurred, then you don’t have to worry about the other attacks, don’t worry . 』 (そのヴィレムは、『もし私の身体がブレて見えたら、その後は向こうの攻撃は気にしなくていいから、早まらないでね』とのミツハの言葉に、頭を捻っていた。)
3 boats are gradually approaching the beach .
If you look closely with binoculars … . .
As I thought, they have a gun, and a sword hanging on the waist .
The gun is probably a [prefabricated smooth-bore rifle], or commonly known as a musket . The rifle is not carved (no riffling), the bullet is ball-shaped and a loading rod device, is it a match lock or a flint-lock…… .
Apparently, the commander is on the last boat . It’s not the fleet commander though…
Well, that’s normal .
Soldiers can be trained relatively easy, but it takes time and money to train a commander, and there are only few good people .
However, when saying that the commanders are all good people, that’s not the case, here .
It’s a cruel world… .
Besides, if you go by the example of the Earth, the commander may not be a regular soldier . It could be a sailor or a merchant whom just picked by the king and given money, a ship, a crew, and so on . Even for the occupants, they might be a country soldier, a sailor who was hired by money, a forcibly recruited ordinary person or a prisoner…… .
Apparently, it seems that these details can be confirmed from the other side, and they have a delicate expression of relief, that I don’t have a gun . And they seemed a little surprised that I’m the leader .
=========================
Finally, the 1st and 2nd boats landed on the sandy beach and the men jumped off, and after the soldiers made a wall of themselves on front, the 3rd boat was pulled up . Then one of the soldiers riding on the 3rd boat jumped off quickly and helped the commander get down as a stepping stone .
The man who seemed to be the commander walked towards me while his soldiers protect his left and right flank, and then said it with a stupid smile on his face .
Enemy Commander: 「Ho ho, are you welcoming us little girl, she’s is a little young, but its better than being greeted by her grandfather . Aren’t you a little cute girl . 」 (TN: A pedo spotted . )
Whoa, does he think that I didn’t understand his language?
Mitsuha: 「I’m quite disappointed that this is not a cool young man . 」
Enemy Commander: 「Wha……！」
The face of the man, quickly became a beet red . Was he angry or thought that I wouldn’t understand the words he said and he was upset with words that I said … .
Enemy Commander: 「The…, the words of our country …?」
Mitsuha: 「Yeah, shouldn’t those who lead the army, will study the unfamiliar words to prepare in case of something like this?」
Enemy Commander: 「You, you lead the army?」
Oh well, I’ve through that the impact was big, but my territory was called the undeveloped land, by this guy… .
Mitsuha: 「Yeah, I am the Viscount, who was delegated with the full authority of military affairs and foreign negotiations, and I was delegated with the administration and defense of this Kingdom by the King . So, I will ask you, as a representative of this country . What is the reason for breaking into our country, without prior notice and without permission? I demand an explanation immediately . 」
Enemy Commander; 「Ah? What you’re talking about? We’ve discovered this is a continent, so it’s mine, the natives are under my control from now on . First of all, hand over the treasures, and the food and water supply!」
Oh, I knew it, he’s that type after all .
It seemed that he was upset for a while, but he thought that I was just a child and now I am being underestimated by this guy . You are saying that this is not a proper state .
Even though he tried to acquire the treasure and the slave by occupying the undeveloped land, he thought that it would be impossible to rob the country if it was a formal negotiation and so on, so just rob it from the start, the story would not be transmitted to the home country anyway .
Maybe, they thought that we don’t have guns and cannon, but they do, so they are thinking of threatening us…… .
Mitsuha: 「Does that mean, you are invading our country? Do you mind if I take this as a declaration of war? Is that a declaration made by you and your fleet, or is it made by the whole country, by your King?」
Although my tone is compelling, I don’t like to respond indifferently without fear at all, the man gradually began to raise his voice .
Enemy Commander: 「I am the Viceroy of the kingdom of Vanel! My words are the words of the kingdom!」
Yeah yeah, I wonder if you received a promise of, [If you win the new territory, I will make you the Viceroy there,] just like the Earth’s Columbus .
So that’s why it’s not the Viceroy of the kingdom itself . Such a person will not lead three ships and will not go on a dangerous expedition .
Besides, you haven’t acquired a new territory, so you’re not the Viceroy yet, you know?
Well, that doesn’t matter .
As a representative of the kingdom, I would be able to say that [I had fought an invasion war against my country,] so I was able to achieve my goal .
Mitsuha: 「Are you trying to dominate our country with Merely 3 vessels? That’s funny . 」
The man glared at me laughing from his nose, but immediately ordered one of the soldiers with a (creepy) smile .
Enemy Commander: 「Shoot that goat . 」
E e ~, my important livestock… . .
But, well, it can’t be helped, how sad .
I’m sorry, Goat Number 27… .
But, why can I remember the goats and the horses easily, and not the face of a person… .
While thinking about such thing, the soldier who was sneaking around is aiming for goat Number 27… .
Oh, I knew it by smell and when I took a closer look, the firing device was a matchlock type, the same matchlock gun in Japan .
Pa~an! (Gunshot sfx)
With a slightly loud Sound, Goat Number 27 fell to the ground . (TN: RIP Goat No . 27)
The guy has a doya (smug) face .
I looked calm and said…
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
Enemies: 「「「「Eh?…」」」」
Not only the commander-like guy, but also the enemy soldiers leaked out voices that was taken aback .
No, I’m not surprised by that shabby shot sound, you know .
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
Enemy Commander: 「No, you’ve already seen it now! The power of this powerful weapon that you didn’t know!
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
Enemy Commander: 「No, if you fight against us, you’ll be like that goat . ……」
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
Enemy Commander: 「No, just listen to…」
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
Enemy Commander: 「Listen up, will you!!!」
Mitsuha: 「One goat, for one gold coin . 」
I thought that the story would not advance as it is, the man unwillingly took out the gold coin from the wallet, gave it to me .
…… Yosh!, I won!
