Claude and his three friends once again climbed over the wall behind the school, but this time they came out after lunch. Just like Bockard said, everyone has money around them now, but you can’t spend it carelessly. Going out to eat delicious food every day means money is spent very quickly, just like Claude spent three days on a treat last time. A Doriaso. Second, if you are used to eating delicious food, it will be difficult to eat school lunches in the future. What will you do if you have no money
Everyone had to admit that what Bockaar said was very reasonable. Even Erikson, who had been making noises about going to the town to find something delicious, went to the canteen to eat the unpalatable lunch with everyone. Go climb the wall.
This time the destination of the four people was still the Old Monk Fishing Gear and Boat Supplies Specialty Store at the slum pier. Although the current store owner Vakuri has changed the ancestral store sign, he has not given up the grocery store business. The powder muskets for the new muskets that Claude and Boquear needed had to be purchased from him.
Mr. Morsand had a long talk with Claude last night, and he had a frank exchange of his plans for Claude's future life, which made Claude realize that his father's plan for his life path was extremely appropriate. The consideration was very thoughtful and meticulous, so he had to accept the result.
There is no way, this is not the society in the previous life where people could leave at will and survive by working casually. The social structure of this other world is completely different, and the restrictions on personal freedom are very strict. As a civilian, if there is no proper reason to go to another place, endless inquiries and inquiries will be waiting for him.
If it is during a war, then the suspicion of evading military service will always be around. However, evading military service is not only a felony in the Kingdom of Ovelas, but also in all countries in the Farea continent, and the minimum penalty for evading military service is ten years. , those who are unlucky may even have to serve in labor force indefinitely.
In the Kingdom of Ovilas, you can only have personal freedom rights if you become a citizen, because you have contributed to the kingdom and obtained national status. So you can freely walk around the territory of the Kingdom. Whether you are doing business or traveling, you are free to carry firearms with you. Of course, you cannot do anything that violates the laws of the Kingdom based on your national status.
The mainland of Nubicia is vast and sparsely populated. Although wars have continued over the years, the royal troops are basically suppressing and annihilating the rebellious indigenous armed forces. Even though the indigenous armed forces had more or less received covert and covert help from other countries, and had replaced their primitive weapons such as stone axes and wooden spears, and picked up more advanced matchlock guns, they were still at a disadvantage when facing the king's team. In exchange for the casualties of a kingdom's soldiers, the battle-loss ratio would reach dozens or even a hundred.
As the godson of Viscount Jerry Hausen Van Kruse, the governor of the Tiersim region, even in name only, Claude went to the mainland of Nubisia to join his godfather and enlisted in the army, so he would definitely receive corresponding care. , at least they won't be sent on duty in those more dangerous war-torn places. The most likely possibility is that he will be placed in the Governor's Guard. Is there any safer place than the Governor's side in the Tiersim area
This is Mr. Morsant's analysis. He believes that if Claude can be smarter, gain the trust of Viscount Jerryhausen Van Kruse, and rely on his status as godson, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be able to survive in three or four years. He will be regarded as a confidant by the Governor and receive strong support from him.
Then it would not take fifteen years, but at most seven or eight years, for Claude to obtain national status. After all, it is easy to perform meritorious service on the battlefield. Even if you are behind the scenes, you can get some credit for assistance such as command and logistics.
From a security perspective, Mr. Morsan believes that even if the kingdom goes to war with the five countries of the Anti-Austria Alliance in a few years, it will not affect the situation in the seven overseas territories directly under the Nubisian continent. The kingdom has deployed nearly 100,000 troops there, which is enough to clear out several overseas territories of the five anti-Austrian alliance countries on the Nubisian continent. Especially since the total number of troops they deployed there is less than 30,000, it is impossible for the king to do so. team's opponent. Where the king's troops were heading, the enemy's greatest possibility was to surrender and head toward the prisoner camp.
Therefore, the most brutal war can only occur in the eastern part of the Farea continent. This is likely to be another war with hundreds of thousands or even millions of casualties. The anti-Austrian Five-Nation Alliance wants to suppress the rise of the Kingdom of Ovelas, while the Kingdom wants to ensure the safety of sea lanes leading to the overseas territories of the Nubisia continent.
