Became a Strategist With an Intelligence of 100 and an Accuracy Rate of 100%

55 – Episode 55. Even after all this, will you kneel to me?

*

After that day-

I began to take on the role of giving advice alongside Lin in earnest.

Without any special order given to me, she would give me advice whenever she called me to her castle.

Since Farfalle, the national counselor, was still handling the situation in the east, it would have been a reasonable decision for Lin to call me.

I was giving her advice for her as I did, as her brain told me with my intellect 100%.

First of all, she needed to trust me to some extent.

“Swen, we have three people to play with. What should we ask them to do?”

“It appears that there are still some hidden talents around Anel Castle and this territory. A search may yield good results.”

As a result of the search, I was able to obtain a B-class general and a treasure worth about 2,000 gold that were still buried in the wilderness.

“I’m slowly trying to organize the western region, but I’m planning to invade Garammil County. What do you think?”

“It is not the time yet. I think it would be better to gather more soldiers and focus on border defense.”

“…Really?”

The news that came a few days later was that the Brans army attacked Garammil County, west of Zeeland Castle, with about 30,000 troops and was defeated.

With a sudden outbreak of disease in the friendly camp and low morale, it seemed that the Garammil army, risking their lives, was unable to breach the walls.

It seems that Rin went ahead with the attack without listening to my opinion.

It’s okay. On the contrary, it would be difficult if you did not do this. The more I test it, the more I will unconsciously trust my opinion.

“…Swen. Looks like you were right this time too.”

“I just thought we needed to build a defense line. You don’t need to overestimate it. We lost because of sheer luck.”

“Then it would be better to keep quiet now, right? The morale of the soldiers is extremely low, and there would be no point in bringing in additional troops to the border.”

“No. Regroup immediately and attack. We will be able to occupy it safely this time.”

“…….”

And again, a few days later.

With the news that the Brans army broke through the walls and occupied Hoero Castle, which was occupied by the Garammil army –

There was news that Garammil County had disappeared into history.

“…I won. Just as you said.”

I spoke to her, who had a subtle expression on her face even after hearing the news of her victory, adding to her plausible situation.

“In the first place, the soldiers of the Garammil Army would not have considered the last victory a victory, as they were defeated due to an outbreak of disease in the Brans Army. So, even though they won, their morale would not have increased. It was just luck. Okay, I just defeated it.”

“For those who thought they would be quiet now, their morale must have been broken when they heard the sound of the Brans army approaching again. No matter how many times they watch it, it is difficult to realize that there is no future in the end. Because it’s not like this.”

I ended the story by lowering my head.

“I just did a good job of stabbing the enemy when their morale was low, but not everything worked out as I said. I think it’s all thanks to Lin’s decision.”

Of course, things like increased morale and things like that were just sentences I made up by adding random words to make it look real.

What I found out is that the first invasion is ‘lost’.

And the second invasion had only the outcome of ‘victory’.

Nevertheless, the result was correct.

This will definitely resonate in her heart.

In my free time, I deliberately went into a cave a bit far away from the territory and meditated.

Two soldiers were stationed in front of the cave to prevent anyone from entering the cave.

There is only one picture I want. The goal was to acquire the image that ‘There were times when Swen meditated alone in this place without anyone’s interference.’

One day, I was assisting her for a few days like this.

She asked me a question.

“Swen. Thank you for your hard work. Farfalle will be back by tomorrow, so from the day after tomorrow you won’t have to come visit me every day like now. More than that, is there anything you want? Since you worked hard for me these past few days, please take care of something for me. “I want to.”

“Didn’t I tell you? I want to make a name for myself. I hope you will continue to utilize me thoroughly in the future.”

“Really? That’s all?”

“Yes.”

She didn’t say anything, but then she smiled politely again and spoke.

“Still, I want to repay you. When you get out of the castle gates, I’ve prepared something you might like. I hope you accept it as a sign of my sincerity. You must take it home and watch it alone. And, please let me know what you think. “I’m curious about your feelings, okay?”

A sign of gender?

I felt a little uncomfortable about taking it home and watching it alone, but anyway, I needed to show loyalty to Rin here.

“Thank you for your kindness. I will never forget it.”

“Okay, okay. hehehehe.”

Leaving the capital like that.

What was waiting for me was definitely something completely unexpected.

“I… I wonder if you are Swen…?”

It was a woman.

A woman who is very beautiful in her appearance, wears s*xy clothes, is blonde, and has a voluptuous body.

She did not appear to be a general belonging to the Brans army. Should I say that she is just like an ordinary person?

No. If you look at the way you apply makeup or the clothes you wear……

‘She’s a woman who works at a brothel.’

And, I was able to read Lin’s intention here without difficulty.

She…… They were trying to ‘tame’ me.

As a reward to his subjects, he gave them a woman from a brothel.

They said you would like it, and even asked you to take it home and let me know what you thought.

This is not repayment. It was an insult.

To put it lightly, ‘Let’s see how long you can endure’ or ‘Even after all this, will you bow down to me?’ It would be correct to say that it has some meaning.

So, that is-

It was a test to see how far I would obey him.

This probably means that I must go through this process before I can trust my abilities.

I’ll give you what you want, so stand tighter in front of me, or something like that.

‘hehehehe, indeed.’

If I were her subordinate who was truly loyal to her, she would have lamented this situation and her resentment would have built up.

I was a very disloyal servant who had every intention of stabbing her in the back.

Yes.

It was a time to act to show that ‘even if you inflict this humiliation on me, I will do as you ask for my own success.’

I told her with a grin.

“I… I’m thinking of going back to my house now, but would you please follow me?”

“Huh? Ah…”

When she saw my face, her face blushed, then she nodded her head and said.

“Ah, I understand…”

Ha.

What does it mean that a person who has become the monarch of a country takes an ordinary person from a brothel and makes him do something in order to have a battle of wits with his subjects?

I was fed up with her persistence, but now I was just grateful.

That persistence could eventually catch her off guard at the last moment.

Just like that, I arrived home with the young lady.

Of course, Irene, who was practicing at home, had four hundred eyes.

“S-Swen…? That person…??”

“Please think of me as a temporary guest. Oh, could you please provide me some tea?”

“No, that’s not difficult…”

“I’ll explain everything.”

After hearing what I said, Irene looked confused as she kept looking at the woman’s face and my face.

She quickly nodded, regaining her composure and spoke.

“Um, I understand. It’s shabby, but you can stay comfortably.”

“Yes? Ah, yes…!”

I sat down comfortably at the table with the young lady.

At that time, the girl sitting next to me came closer to me and asked in a whisper.

“Um… Master Swen.”

“Yes?”

“Well… I heard you ask Swen-sama to let you feel the pleasure of a man… But do you have to do it in front of that woman? Well, I can do it if Swen-sama wants… But no matter how much I do, “It’s my first time in a situation like this…”

“…….”

I spoke after a short sigh.

“Teacher. What is your name?”

“Huh? My name is Lina.”

“Lina. You don’t know what I heard from my master, but that’s not what I want you to do.”

“So…?”

“You can have a cup of tea, spend some time, and then leave the house.”

“Yes…? Master Swen, do you have walls like that…? Well, I heard that men’s walls are really diverse.”

“It’s not a castle wall… Ha…”

“Hmm? The castle wall? Swen, did you do any work repairing the castle wall today?”

Iren, who had already made all the tea, came over and placed a tray with three glasses and a teapot on the table.

I explained the general situation to Iren while drinking tea.

“Well, that… More than that, the castle wall wasn’t that, it was something like that… Hmm.”

Irene sipped her tea with her shaking hands, her face flushed with blush.

And then she suddenly showed signs of shaking, which was uncharacteristic of her.

“Are you okay, Irene?”

“No, it’s me… Um…”

“Um… Then, you’re not doing anything today…?”

I nodded at Lina’s words.

“Yes. However… I would greatly appreciate it if you would spend time with me and act like you ‘did’ something with me outside.”

There was only one reason why I brought her into the house instead of biting her right away in the first place.

I thought that if it were Lin Brans, he would have been following me.

Of course, my senses were not that great. There was no such thing as feeling like someone was following me or looking at me.

Nevertheless, I decided that it would be better in many ways to act like that. If she found out that I had just sent her away, there was a chance that she would overvalue me unnecessarily.

It looks like he is completely submissive to her.

It was a necessary procedure for a perfect exit.

“It’s not that difficult… But it’s a little disappointing.”

“…Yes?”

She heard something unexpected and turned her head.

Lina was looking at me with her face slightly red.

“Actually, when I was first asked to do this… I wondered if I would have to deal with an old man again, but there was someone as cool and cool as Swen… So I was really looking forward to it…♡”

“Keuheuk! Kukkuk! Kukkuk!”

While Irene was drinking tea again, she heard a case and started gurgling mercilessly.

After patting her on the back a few times, I asked Lina a question.

“…Do you often receive requests like this from her?”

“Yes. Actually, I have some connection with Lin Brans.”

“Are you related?”

“Kalintz is my regular.”

…… Ah.

Kalintz, it looks like you had a really fancy time out.

“You know what? Mr. Kalinz, you have a strong body… But as a man, you’re not that great. I heard it’s over in 3 minutes, right?”

“…….”

This was the information I really wanted to know.

It was a bonus that Irene continued to cough.

“Anyway, I would like you to do me a favor. Please act as if you did something with me. This is not a big deal, but please take care of it.”

I said, handing her half of the funds she had saved from her work in Brans County and her salary.

It was useless gold for her to have anyway, but from her perspective, she said with a grin on her face.

“Child, give me everything and everything!”

She took her money and nodded her head.

“Yes! I understand. But, well, I tend to be unable to resist a favor from a good-looking man. Don’t worry!”

“Nothing will come of flattering you, but thank you.”

I had a trivial conversation with a woman named Lina for a while.

And then, after some time, she left her room.

Iren finally asked me in a serious tone.

“That person named Lina… Was that given to you by your lord?”

“That’s right. It felt like he was testing me. Will you still follow me like this? Something like that.”

“I see…”

Iren lowered her head and smiled bitterly.

He probably understands this situation better than anyone else.

It was none other than Irene who had been tormenting her in this dark way until now.

“…I’m worried that you, too, have come to be hated because of me.”

“What do you think? I don’t mind being hated by Lin-sama. I wouldn’t mind being hated by Iren-sama.”

“……Uh, huh…?”

“If Irene hates me, I might be very sad at that time.”

At my words, Irene lowered her head again with her face deeply red.

Then, she answered me in a strained voice.

“I have no reason to hate you, Swen…”

“Me too.”

“…Yes.”

She hesitated for a while and stared at the empty glass.

She then looked up at me and asked cautiously.

“Well… There’s something I want to ask you.”

“What is it?”

“What… Will happen to the castle walls…?”

“…Yes?”

I answered, wondering if I had heard wrong.

“I came here without any repair work on the castle wall.”

“Well, that’s not it. It’s not that… It’s… That thing that the person named Lina was talking about just now… Something like that…”

“Are you curious about that?”

“No, it’s not that I’m curious…! Well, that’s… That… It’s just that… The story came up… But I didn’t answer. All the men say there are various castle walls… No, that’s what I’m saying. It’s not like that…!”

By this time, her face was beyond red and it looked like it was going to explode at any moment.

Why did you ask that if you were going to be so embarrassed?

I suddenly felt that she was very cute.

At the same time, for some reason, she felt like teasing her.

“It’s a castle wall… I don’t know if this should be called a castle wall, but I like women with big breasts.”

“Oh? Ah… Yes…! Is it breasts? Yes. I heard that men like… Breasts…!”

For some reason, I felt proud, was it my mistake?

“And, I tend to like people with red hair.”

“Buh, red hair?! Hmm, hmm, hmm…!”

“It’s better if you’re good at using a sword. I have a female knight fetish.”

“Female knight fetish…?”

After hearing that, Irene looked at me with a puzzled expression, as if she sensed something strange about her.

I looked at her like that and said with a smile on her face.

“It would be better if it was someone who practices it every day. Oh! And I get excited when I see a woman who is good at making tea.”

“…Swen…!!”

Irene spoke in an argumentative manner, with her cheeks puffed out, which was uncharacteristic of her.

“I was asking this seriously… Why are you joking…!”

“Did I answer seriously too?”

“…Ah?”

And again.

Her face is red, she opens her mouth as if she has a breakdown and she can’t say anything.

“I like a female knight with big breasts and red hair. She’s really serious. I told her honestly, but I’m upset because she thinks it’s a joke.”

“That… Is that what it was?”

She spoke helplessly, as if she was truly sorry.

“I… I’m sorry. I didn’t think it was a joke, it just seemed like it was all about me… Ah… That’s right, that’s, um, that, that… That’s…!”

I laughed out loud looking at her like that.

After laughing for a while, I couldn’t even remember what Rin had done to me just now.

“I’m sorry. It was a joke.”

“…Woman, as expected of a joke-“

“But regardless of that, I like Irene.”

“What…!!”

When she heard what I said, her face became very red again.

Iren was a much more expressive person than I thought.

She always had a heavy expression on her face, and her frustration at being rejected by the Brans County people felt like a lie.

I want to see more of her various expressions.

Suddenly a thought occurred to me.

“Please continue to be with me from now on. Understood?”

“…….”

She didn’t say anything, but looked into my eyes for a long time.

My image was completely reflected in her purple eyes.

“……Yes…Swen. I understand.”

The bond between me and Irene is stronger than anything else.

There was absolutely no room for Lin Brans to intervene in this situation.

*

The next day.

Lin, who went to visit the castle, looked at me and said with a smile.

“What do you think, Swen? What’s the ‘thing’ I gave you?”

I spoke with a smile that did not waver at all.

“Thank you for your concern. Thanks to you, my lord, I was able to have time to recharge. I will not forget this favor.”

“What?”

When she heard what I said, she giggled as if she was happy.

“Was it a favor that I would never forget? Swen, you are a man too! Well, I understand! My brother felt the same way!”

I smiled appropriately.

He seemed to really like my words of submission.

Well, how pathetic I must look in her eyes.

Even though he has this level of ability, it seems like he only wants to impress himself.

Yes.

Now, slowly…… She felt it was time to make a move.

“Master. Since today is the last day, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it?”

“Since I have received a reward from my lord, I would also like to give you a gift.”

“A gift? For your information, my favorite is Swen. She’s a soft and pretty girl like you, so it would be nice if you could keep that in mind.”

“It’s a much better gift than something trivial like that.”

I grinned.

She said something she probably wouldn’t have expected.

“Balharat Castle.”

“…!”

I spoke in a confident tone, with my eyes shining and an expression that seemed to see everything through.

“I think it’s time to clean up Mr. Aceers, who is a thorn in my master’s eyes.”
