All Warriors Are My Disciples

140. Oh, so why not?

“… So, in order to prevent attacks by demons… It means that the general kingdom people will be prepared to fight at any time.”

“Yes. The disciples already before coming here. So, the warriors took care of the monsters.”

“Do you mean monsters?”

“From what I can see, all the small villages that have already settled in remote areas seem to have been victimized.”

At Namgoonghyun’s words, Baron Rahman blinked his eyes.

There are only about a hundred soldiers in the Lake Territory.

Except for those in charge of the lord’s castle, the rest were only at the level of guard duty.

What if monsters attack in such a situation? That is the road to death in droves.

“Huh, is it true that the warriors organized everything?”

“For now. My senior and I took care of them all. But….”

“It won’t be the end. There must have been someone who summoned them, but they probably hid or ran away right away.”

Saying that, he tut tut at Namgung-hyeon and clicked her tongue.

When they are cornered, they use a very disgusting method.

In the past, I usually chose a reasonably large city and made some threats.

Taking advantage of that opportunity, the demon worshipers in the city use their tongues to expand their religious power.

I used to use a very subtle technique, but now it’s different.

I just started from the outskirts and slaughtered at random.

Those who want to escape the fear that the end is near.

Take care of yourself and open your arms to welcome the mighty demon.

‘A monster. What kind of lightning is this!’

Because of this, Baron Rahman naturally had no choice but to tremble.

So far, demon worshipers have been targeting mainly decent cities.

There is almost no interaction with the outside world like Lake Mansion.

The place where there was nothing useful had to be out of their interest.

Even in the middle of the ominous rumor that monsters appear.

I was able to spend a very quiet time here at Lake Mansion.

Ironically, those who harmed peace brought peace.

Of course, now that peace has been shattered.

“If you don’t, doesn’t that mean that another attack can come at any time?”

“Yes. That’s why I’m not saying I will arm the people here.”

“Hey, sir. There are soldiers and knights, but why….”

It could be a simple question out of curiosity.

Baron Rahman had something very calculated hidden inside.

Soldiers are a kind of limbs that work after receiving a salary from themselves anyway.

If those soldiers become stronger, their own strength will eventually become stronger as well.

If you do well, you can become the strongest lord in the area.

It would be great if someone who was said to be the teacher of the warriors taught them.

Of course, such a reaction came out when he said he would leave the soldiers behind and arm the villagers.

“Isn’t the level of soldiers and knights okay?”

However, Namgoonghyeon was not such an easygoing person.

“Eh, yes?”

“Everyone can protect themselves from low-level monsters. They belong to a ‘group’, so they have a sense of bonding, and at least they know how to fight together. But the people of the kingdom are different. Even low-ranking monsters are difficult, and when a crisis strikes, they will scatter. We have to teach them how to live.”

“Yeah, that’s right….”

No matter what you do, I’m on top of your head.

Namgoonghyun smiles and smiles, as if telling him not to roll his head.

“I’m telling you clearly in case you misunderstand. I’m not expecting some sort of warrior-level criminal record. At least able to hold out until support comes from outside. Even when surrounded by monsters, instead of thinking about death, she thinks about fighting and has the hope of living. I want to see you like that.”

“Ah….”

“There is no specialized training. There won’t be any time for that. Basic fighting methods and body training. And I plan to teach them how to help each other and how to fight. In other words, useless time for soldiers and knights who already know it.”

At Namgoonghyeon’s words, Baron Raman let out a drool.

In the end, that means that people who don’t know anything become soldiers.

What on earth is the uneasiness on this side that will come as a result of that?

It’s scary when there are hundreds of people with only farming tools.

Think of those hundreds flocking in now knowing how to handle weapons.

Anyone will spend the night with open eyes and worry.

“You seem very worried about something?”

Namgung-hyeon smiled as if he knew everything about the baron.

It’s obvious. Why is that nobleman making such a face?

The vested interests hate it when those under them have power.

Because I can use it to stand up at any time.

Instinctively, I want to stay away from it, and I try to block it.

The less good you are, the stronger this feeling becomes.

‘He knows he could get stabbed if he doesn’t.’

Originally, I thought I would go crazy when I said this.

What these rural nobles hate the most is their insignificance.

Because authority and power, which are nothing really, are crushed.

But Baron Rahman was worried, but he didn’t show intense hostility.

That means one of two things, this man is an unexpectedly decent nobleman.

Or he’s not like that, but he’s only making the mistake of himself.

“As you know, you know, but as someone above you, you have no choice but to worry.”

“That sounds odd. Aren’t nobles supposed to serve as shields for the people of the kingdom?”

“Yeah, that’s right. Not like that.”

“I will carry it like that shield. I’m going to teach you to listen together, but the reaction is really strange.”

“Ahahahaha. That’s what you mean, sir.”

“Why? Are you afraid that they might hold the spear knife upside down and point it at your neck?”

I’m laughing, but it’s a very sharp question.

At those words, Baron Rahman had no choice but to momentarily harden his face.

Saying such a thing in front of an aristocrat is itself a serious disrespect.

It’s more like a provocation that could lead to the Battle of the Territory.

Originally, it would be right for Baron Rahman to burst into anger.

But the opponent is someone who has received absolute authority from the royal family.

He is even the man who is said to be the teacher of those incredible warriors.

Looking at his appearance, he doesn’t have the profound feeling of being a ‘teacher’.

I think it’d be better to call yourself a hero instead.

Since the two women called warriors are calling each other “Master,” They seem to be right.

Is there any reason to say something unpleasant to such a man?

It’s best to keep your mouth shut and stay still.

“Baron Rahman. Why do you think that?”

“Kuhm. I never thought of that. There will be no better lord around here than me.”

“Is that so? If not, you’ll have to teach people the basic military parts. A good lord would never be able to watch people fall pathetically.”

“Ha, but if those with impure hearts do something against it….”

“If that’s a concern, you just need to be kinder to people. Isn’t that so, boys?”

“That’s right, Master!”

“Su, Master is right!”

The teacher of the warriors and the two warriors are said to be right.

The baron didn’t have the courage to say no here.

At Namgoonghyeon’s words, Baron Rahman felt that he had fallen into a trap.

He just said that he would take care of his pride.

Conversely, I couldn’t even get my money’s worth and I just ended up following it.

Since he’s also holding a royal power of attorney, he’ll have no choice but to follow if pushed.

Still, at least as the person in charge of the territory, I wanted to give some opinions.

I fell into a trap that looked good, and I had to accept it without being able to pull it off.

“I know why the baron is worried. I understand. I can’t help but worry. But if you think of it the other way around, isn’t it rather an opportunity?”

“… Opportunity… You mean?”

When you want to move and lead your opponent the way you want.

You must point out the benefits that the other party can take from there.

Only then can you convince your opponent more easily.

Even if you can’t be persuaded right away, it might make you think about it.

“Because of the Baron’s decision, the people here receive essential lessons from me. And when the monster really invades and puts Yeongji in danger, everyone joins forces to stop it. If so, who will people praise?”

“Yes, I taught them….”

“Yes. Of course, rank 1 is better. But I won’t be there. I’m just a person who stays for a while and then disappears. And who will be the next to be praised?”

“… I… Are you?”

Even after saying that, Baron Rahman seems to be concerned about himself.

My eyes were full of doubts as to whether this was really true.

Namgoong-hyun seemed to be nagging me if I said two things.

Pair! They even clapped once and agreed very fiercely.

“Of course! Whether something succeeds or fails, the decision maker takes a stake in it. If you fail, you take responsibility, and if you succeed, you get the praise. I fought against the demons and won. Then who is it for?”

“My… Thanks.”

“Tell me again. Thanks to whom?”

“Thanks to me.”

“Yes. Everyone will admit that. If not, the public sentiment will get better, and the united public sentiment will make this territory grow even better.”

Some of these claims make a lot of sense.

It is said that too absurd words are ridiculed by people.

A well-explained and logical argument strangely gets sympathy.

There is only one thing that is needed, the consistent confidence of the one who insists.

“Trust me. This is a crisis and an opportunity at the same time.”

A crisis and an opportunity at the same time, is there anything sweeter than this?

People are inherently better at moments when they think things will not go well.

He said that he concentrates more on the moment when he thinks things will go well and imagines more.

It’s not a situation where you only see losses, but if you can get either gain or loss.

Even though I tilt my head, I end up looking a little more at the gains.

That’s right, it’s about ‘expecting’.

“Hmm….”

Baron Rahman was troubled, fingering his chin.

Namgung-hyeon, who had been watching her, decided to drive a wedge.

This is enough of the gentle persuasion, and now, in the end, to bring this nobleman back to his senses.

“Oh, so you’re not going to do it? Are you really not going to do it?”

I just had to raise her fist again and end it with threats.
