Mysterious Job Called Oda Nobunaga - 170

During the reign of Rumi I, I completely eliminated the insurgents in the country in about two years.

It was a slow process, but what I did was nothing less than work. There is no one in the country who has the power to defeat me anyway.

But it was not that I was not busy. There were many decisions to be made.

“We should not move it carelessly,” he said.

Yes, Kerala insists clearly.

Raviara immediately stands up and replies.

“No!　It should be moved to Maust!　Because Mr. Arsrod’s castle is in Maust, not in the current royal capital!　Maust should be the capital and this should be the sub-capital!”

At the meeting, there was an ongoing debate about which of the two should be the new capital.

“Mr. Raviara, if we move the capital, there will be chaos. It is dangerous to take measures that will increase hostility.

“The lords of the land have already submitted to Lords Arsrod and Rumi. It won’t make much difference where they take King’s Landing now. The merchants have already moved to Maust!

Both have a point. Rumi and I were sitting next to each other, watching the discussion and laughing.

“What do you think, Your Majesty? I ask.

“Well, what do you think, Serafina?”

“I don’t care either way. I think that the Regent should be made king as soon as possible, with the Regent as co-ruler.

Serafina said in a mischievous tone.

“Serafina, we will discuss this another time.

“I have no opinion about King’s Landing. My dream is to be the king’s wife. I’ll be happy if you fulfill that dream.

What can I say, he’s not a distortion …….

“So, then, Fleur, what do you think should happen to King’s Landing?”

Rumi, as the rightful wife, asked the opinion of each of the side wives in turn.

Fleur bowed and then took her seat. Her expression is softer than before, when she had been in constant strife, but she still maintains an imposing attitude in the political arena. She does not look like the wife of a regent.

“The current size of the capital cannot withstand future city planning. We need more land. We should move to Maust.

Raviara looks at me like I’ve seen it all.

“And now, Mr. Jahnhahn, as a merchant, what are your thoughts on this?”

Merchants naturally move in the direction of profit. On top of that, there are many who are looking for Maust as a new place to do business, and there are also those who are ready to put down roots if they think they can make it in the current capital. Please feel free to do so.

When Jahnhahn finished his hearing, he took the liberty of drinking the tea that had been prepared for him. It was a loose space for the king’s presence.

“Thank you very much. What do you think of Tarsha Machar, Count of the Frontier?

Maust is closer to my land. All the people of the North welcome the transfer of the capital.

It is a very rude thing to say in front of Rumi, the king, but he knows that and has invited us here.

The momentum is now leaning in favor of the transfer of the capital.

What do you think, Yucca?

Yucca looked around and then replied emphatically, “I support the Maust faction, which is outnumbered …….”

In a way, it was the right thing to do.

“Thank you all for your opinions. I think the final decision should be made by His Majesty the Emperor.

I glance at Rumi’s profile.

Rumi takes one look at me, smiles, and turns to the table in front of us.

“I would like to move the capital to Maust. We will call it the southern capital.

My inner profession said something else I don’t understand.

–Nanto. Like Nara in Kyoto.

If there’s a precedent for it in Oda Nobunaga’s world, we can do it.

And when the move to the new capital of Maust began to settle down…

I was chosen by Rumi to be his co-ruler in the midst of a crowd of vassals.

That means I am king at last. King of Thirlwil, to be exact.

“From now on, you will help me not only as my husband, but also as a king in the same position.”

Rumi puts his crown on my head.

“I accept. I will protect you until the day I die.”

I kissed the back of Rumi’s hand in pledge.

A year later, Rumi was about to give birth to his second child, so he abdicated, leaving me alone as king.

Later historians will debate whether to regard that as the founding of a new dynasty or the beginning of a new dynasty when I became Rumi’s co-ruler.

Well, it doesn’t matter.

I am definitely the king now.

A few days after I became king, I visited Serafina’s room at night.

Laviala and Altia were already there.

Althea greeted me in a joking tone: “Your Majesty, you’re so loud”.

Please don’t do that. You don’t know what you’ve come here for.

But what’s the use of being king if you don’t act like one?

Serafina, as hostess of the room, prepares tea while making light remarks.

“Mr. Arsrod, you have finally done it. Raviara is very happy too!

Laviala hugged me in public, and I patted her head. But I thought that she was hugging me as a big sister.

“But isn’t there still something important to do?”

Serafina poured tea into the cups one by one.

“What do you mean?”

“If Rumi’s next child is a boy and continues on the throne, it might be treated as a continuation of the same dynasty.”

Oh, you mean the next king.

Yes, the name of the dynasty may change if the next king is my firstborn, Serafina’s child, or Rumi’s child. That would be a big problem if there was a war for the throne.

I couldn’t help laughing.

“What’s wrong with you?”

“No, I just thought it would be nice to still have a job and not get bored.”

I prefer a peaceful country, but I also don’t want it to be uninspired. People like me probably don’t belong in an age of peace.

I’d rather build a new temple.

“Brother, you are too optimistic.”

Altia warned me that you are much younger because of the guy you are going to worship in that temple.

“I will prepare a temple for the god Odanobunaga, which is my profession. It’s going to look rather odd, but I have the blueprints.”

I’ve got it in my head that it should be something like Azuchi Castle.

As the construction of the Oda Nobunaga Temple was about to begin, Rumi gave birth to their second child. This child was a boy.

This is a problem for the next king, but so be it. I’ll do my best to address that issue.

Arsrod I of the Kingdom of Thirlwil of the Nevruids can only flourish if the world is in turmoil.
