Tower of Karma

Gilbert stood on the outer wall of the bluff Tat that flickered. The exhaled breath is white and there is no tremor in the body. I can understand it with a little standing figure. That he is different from others. It is difficult to approach and that it is a race born to be a hero.

“Oh, it’s Gilbert! Oh, what are you doing in such a place?”

Everyone was at a distance. Just as others felt the distance to Gilbert, Gilbert also felt the distance to others. Gilbert still felt strange that there was a man who jumped over there and rubbed like an idiot.

“You can see it if you look”

Carl von Taylor is a strange man.

“I don’t know if I look. I can only see it standing.”

Even if everyone avoids Gilbert, only he does not feel the distance. It is so from the time I first met. Maybe at the time of the first look did not even know the difference in position-

“Meditation”

“… so cold?”

“It’s because it’s cold.”

“strange thing”

But now it is different. I understand my position, but I am near the Gilbert, who will not be stuck together. In the first place, as a result of Gilbert’s back work to get the curl, this composition was not in the head of the person himself, Gilbert. It is an unexpected fool.

“If so, did you read the letter from William?

“You can’t reach you. The enemy of that man is your father.”

“Oh, yes. That’s right.”

Gilbert is strange. Why does this man stand next to Noh Weather so much? Even if Gilbert doesn’t feel like that, others are afraid of Gilbert and they are separated. It was so from childhood.

Oswald is such a standing position in this country. Even though-

“I disagreed, but my father decided to give some money, because the reason is the country, so ask him in more detail. I can’t let my temper go down, that’s the deal. ”

“Hirda was beating homely. I did not read it.”

“… The reasoning goes against Gardner”

“It is unreasonable.”

If you think in theory, it is best for Carl to try to use Gilbert. Just as Gilbert tried to use it as a shield, Carl is also thinking about using a sword called Gilbert. It would be a story in line with logic.

“I wonder if it will be early spring. I am not good at cold weather.”

“In the spring, a bloody battlefield will be waiting for you. If it’s a chance, you’ll be fighting.”

“I hate that too. Peace is the best.”

But this man has no ambition. It was not without small desires, but he did not have such ambitions. It is a surprise that a man who does not like war has climbed up to the head of the division. However–

“Even if you say so, the enemy will attack. It doesn’t matter here.”

This man doesn’t like fighting-

“Yeah, I know. By that time I have to be strong enough to protect everyone.”

It was not that I was not loved by the war. I hate fighting, but I want to protect those in the midst of it. I have to plunge into the neck for every battle I do not like. The attitude made Karl a leader of the warlike with Arcadia’s leading ability. The battle led by the army will be second only to William. The attack is still as usual.

“Huh, it gets stronger without saying. I’m Gilbert von Oswald.”

Gilbert hates himself awfully ignoring these remarks. How long do I have to show off myself and show my strength? There is no longer any meaning such as strength in words. It became an adult rather than a child. If it should be shown not by words but by martial arts-

“I will be strong!”

That’s next to the unsuspecting man, what a cozy thing there. Many left their own feet. At least all those without Oswald’s connection take a distance with Gilbert. Gilbert also made it good. There was almost no partner who wanted to keep the connection even by bending his own mind.

“If so, you have to get trained.”

“Hey, Father!” “General !?”

Now I was walking along a curving road. The man who had been promised to be a hero named Gilbert von Oswald is trying to get out of his way and become a hero’s sword. It’s really cozy. A place of peace where you were not at home. My niece and envy are too far away, there is only a warm sun.

“It’s good to be motivated. We both go crazy!”

“Oh, but you have a job as a general on your father?”

“I threw everything to my men. You are safe to receive training. This is a general order.”

The man Gilbert is obstinate. And he was not obedient, just a little timid. I am used to loneliness. I am not worried about being alone. One person may have time to sharpen the sword. Training by one person. Time for myself. But it wasn’t my fault for some time. For the country, for the house, a little different path from them.

“I’m going Taylor. I will take one from my father today.”

“Yeah! I will do my best!”

The road was very comfortable for Gilbert.

○

Shilla stood in front of Gilbert. Continue to train the sword already half a century. Oswald’s house that holds a sword from the moment of birth. Born here, this monster gave Oswald glory as General. A sword general who ran through many battlefields.

“That’s right, Gilbert”

“Oh, still not!”

It is my father’s back who is standing still. That was a pity for Gilbert. But now, Gilbert is trying to surpass it.

“Be more sharpened! Your sword will not be so ‘wide’!”

Gilbert’s vision diminishes. The atmosphere is concentrated at one point and the air is condensed. Bernhard felt something intoxicating to the skin. This is Gilbert’s sword. And Oswald’s sword. More than anything–

“That’s fine, but it’s still wide!”

I was the talent farthest from the sword.

○

“It’s slack. Above all, it’s messy. It’s too dyed to the war.”

“Sorry, Father.”

Gilbert looks up at his father, who is yearning. His knees are already broken, and even standing up is more than enough. The opposing father is standing on the ground firmly standing still. It is still far. Gilbert felt that way.

“If you decide to live as a sword, throw away your thoughts. The more you hold your thought, the slower your sword will be. Just think about cutting off the enemy.

Gilbert was shallow in the words of Bernhard. There are times when you are worried. I was just wondering if I could ask for it here, I was lost here.

“I was intending to take a break. I have not wiped my mind. It is meaningless. I will eliminate it if it interferes with practice.”

Bernhard saw a loss of Gilbert’s sword.

Gilbert showed a brief loss but looked at his father.

“Why did you lend a hand to Liwius?”

The request for a loan from William came under the Gilbert. At first, I tried to destroy it with my own hands and asked what face I wished to put down a wish, but I thought that it would be necessary to have a report that William was doing such an activity, and brought this story to Bernhard.

“Are you worried about that?”

So Gilbert was still not convinced by Bernhard’s answer. Bernhard decided to lend five hundred gold on this matter. How about Oswald, but five hundred pieces of gold is going to give it to a large coin, a partner who has nothing to do with it. Gilbert thought that the other party was different if it offered it to him.

It was an extremely personal feeling-just beyond the sight of a glance, there was a figure of a young man lying on the ground like a rag. I have no consciousness.

“There is a lot of money in the five hundred to get rid of that. I can not be convinced.”

“… it’s a difficult story. If, indeed, he was moving to get mine only, I would have kicked it off because that’s what anyone can do. It doesn’t have to be that guy.”

“So why this story-”

“I set up an integrated steel mill in the north. This word moved me to this Bernhard, General Arcadia. It was not easy to do this, but if it could, this would have been Arcadia for many years. It will be possible to solve the problems that came up at once. ”

I can not understand it with Gilbert. I can not see the connection between the stories.

“First of all, it’s iron. Arcadia was absolutely lacking in iron. It is now possible to convert everything that has been compensated with bronze etc. into iron weapons. It is also cheaper than ever before, However, there is no facility to smelt all the iron ore produced in the north in the current Arcadia, although it is necessary to expand it, there are few lands full of forest resources and stable ground in Arcadia, and they are owned by nobles It is easy to go out and there is nothing to go out. ”

There is too much shame in Arcadia. In addition, iron purification in the surrounding area was not good from the aspect of agriculture. Iron smelting with lots of trees and lots of water. And the drained water was regarded as harmful. Landowners will not accept this. No matter how much iron produces wealth, the land will be dirty and forest resources will be lost from a long-term perspective. The places in Arcadia that are suitable for refining were too rich in land to throw away farming.

“But there is little shame in the north. The land is thin from the beginning, and the trees are not suitable for agriculture at most. We are a winning country and it is a big advantage to say that we will make an ironworks. That makes perfect sense. ”

Bernhard sighs.

“And this depends on the second reason, but it can be expected that there will be very few opposition from the population. Rather, even a welcome move will come out.”

I still can not understand to Gilbert. The above story is too complicated. It was a situation where it was far from understanding because it was a bad idea that I had focused my thinking to the limit just before, or that I could not help thinking about it.

“The second is the people, people of the land who have gained the north, are also Arkadia people. Both sides have not yet been able to keep up with it, but one day they will be part of Arcadia, including their ideas. The way they use them is as long as they use human resources effectively, they will fall behind in a big country, but rather they will pull out their legs. It is not good to have hunting and living a living. ”

As I expected, I could understand Gilbert as well. Mining of iron ore and refining of iron, if you use local people as these two jobs, it will also be the use of human resources. It will be somewhat cheaper than using the Arcadia people, and they will still be happy to work. You will be given the industry to the north. Land and people can be used effectively.

“That man is moving in anticipation so far. It is evidence that you have found your worth even if you head down in all sorts of ways, but it’s more than you thought. I do not know if I have a brain.

Gilbert did not miss the power of Bernhard’s fist.

“Third, it’s a weapon. That man is an army human. We will stand at the military’s point of view, and we’ll hit the weapon. The waste and hollowing out so far will disappear. It will disappear completely, but the cost will drop significantly. From now on, the number of weapons will be needed in the age of war, if it is going to put it at the current price, it will put a heavy burden on the treasury. I have to lend a hand to this project as a manager.

Movement that greatly changes the structure so far. This would be a painful reform. It is a vested interest that gets pain. Pests who have taken advantage of the good thing that there is no rival horse until now. They are not aware yet. You have to decide the game before you notice it.

“And finally, it’s William Pon Liwyus that makes this happen. It’s all that matters, if he fails, he will lose his leg. His fame fades, leaving his name in history as a rare fool You will be leaving the country. ”

Gilbert thinks what is the problem with it, in the emotions. But in theory, I understood what Bernhard would like to say in the future.

“That man is a standout, no doubt that in any country would have been successful. There is no doubt now. A rare standout showing war or business standout is William Liwius. It is a man, and in the coming years, the turbulent times will come, so it is possible that it will be fatal if Arcadia lacks him, if there is only salvation, but if he becomes an enemy? Takako Ao and Queen of Arkland … And because they are aliens, there is such a possibility as well.

Gilbert also feels sorrowful. It is still good if you only lose. The problem is the lightness of foreigners. Even if it fails, it will be anywhere in the country that wants William Liwius. There is also the possibility that he will be at the gate and become an enemy of Arcadia.

Of course, if you know William’s nature, you will find that this anxiety is jealous. He is particular about Arcadia and wants to reach for Heaven from Arcadia. Well, if you do not know it, you will certainly be anxious.

“Of course, there is no need to help me get out of the way. This is just a good deal.”

Still, a rumor remains in Gilbert. The great fathers have to be mindful of William, who is a foreigner, and get angry at the reason.

“Even if you are an enemy, there are many people in this country, including your father.”

“……Where are you?”

Bernhard’s eyes had a light that I had never seen. Like selfishness, like a toothache, like a regret, like a frustration-

“Where are the people in this country who easily go beyond me and Valdias?”

“That man wins over his father”

“It has already been exceeded. If it is a field battle on the plains, there may be a win, bricks and mens combined forces will probably overwhelm me and Valdias. We got old, and that man is up-to-date. There is no way to win. ”

Gilbert is stunned. That great father, who has no respect for his heroes, is, in any case, pointing to William above him.

“The strength of one strike is not the strength of the general. It might even get lost in a few years. His strength is a field of vision that does not stay in the battlefield. There is such a strength in winning the game, whether it is a battle or a business.

It’s far from conviction. William’s excellence is also acknowledged by Gilbert. But if it goes beyond the father, the story is different. It’s not such a simple wall, the wall that says Bernhard von Oswald. It should not be such a cheap wall.

“… Wow, I don’t say that, but there should still be a lot of human resources in Arcadia, beginning with the commander of the Jan Corps. Yes, yes, he would be a domestic home of the great Zekt’s remnant”

Bernhard’s face became cloudy at the moment when Yan’s name came out.

“Yes, I’m expecting you and Carl von Taylor to have a combination of the two. Rather I think that there is no possibility that he could rival William, except this combination. In the case of Jan von Zekt, it is necessary to change the recognition.

A sorrow dwelled in the eyes of Bernhard.

“That man is, in a sense, a man who is more dangerous than William. He hates Arcadia. He hates the country, the nobles who rule this country, the society that forms the nobles. ”

Bernhard breathed deeply.

“Surely that man was a hero. Everyone envyed for the future, and no one had doubted his glory. In the future, everyone thought that he would become a general and exceed the huge stars of Even so, he didn’t choose that way, there was only one tragedy, no, many tragedy, and the man broke down, pushing the blade to the throat of Stracles, and the man who defeated the deputy general Berger The tragedy took light from his eyes, lost his purpose, lost his motives, we were misled, what was it looking for, Arcadia made a mistake And ten years later that man had been haunted in the north, tragedy and contraindications, as if they were waiting for the two to weather. ”

The story of Gilbert’s unknown age. The Swordsman, who was my brother, did not send this kind of gossip to Gilbert. It would have been decided that it should not be leaked. As Gilbert drowned on them, they might have been jealous of Jan too. Bernhard also didn’t say to dig deeper. What does tragedy mean? Apparently Bernhard knew he had a deep situation. It is a matter of little interest to Gilbert.

“Everyone is undecided to handle that man. The superiority is proven. The defeat from Stracles has defeated him of the same generation, and the right arm of Stracles, who was the superior at that time, also the deputy general Berger. Defeat it after defeating him, and thanks to your brother’s death keeping Laconia in sync with him, the pragmatic was on us, and Berger was great, because the power of the Stracles army was greatly weakened by that. ”

Vice General Berger. A name that even Gilbert of different generations knows. A hero who ran the battlefield as a shield, sometimes as a shield for Struggles. Its power is such that it can cross over with the Golden Generation and the previous generations, who have been redeemed, and the previous three nobles, and it has survived with the Werkingrix again and again. Gallias, from Arcadia, was as scared as Stracles.

“But it’s scary that I really don’t know why. I wondered why it’s up again now, coming out of the north despite the crisis of the state’s death, settled in Laconia’s defense as it was. A man is. ”

I could not find such a shadow in the impression of Yan, but it is a strange story that so many squeakers have not yet spread so much. Even though it was trying to weather it, why did it start to move now?

“The story is off. Anyway, I don’t care if I recognize William as dangerous. I don’t have any credibility with me. If you and Carl go over the guy, there will be no big problems.”

Bernhard told the end of the break by pulling out his sword. Gilbert also stands up supporting the sword. I have enough rest. After all, it has to be stronger. It becomes deterrence by the man who says Gilbert becoming strong. It has to be counter to William.

“Now come.”

“I’m going!”

Gilbert’s growth, or jealousy to William. It must be strong. Because it is full of enemies both inside and outside. There is no loss of strength.
