Chapter 383: 383
About half a month after becoming the Northern Plenipotentiary .
The nobles finished their greetings, and the days of dealing with various rubbing continued .
You can't solve everything at once .
Still, we have been working little by little towards a solution .
However, the road to such reconstruction was blocked .
"This is not a natural disaster at this time . . . . "
I murmur as I look out the window .
There is heavy rain outside, and strong winds blow through the windows .
Ruggedly built noble mansions will be fine, but they won't last a long time in miscellaneous buildings .
I had heard in advance that heavy rain might come, so I told all lords to prioritize the protection of their people .
As a result, many people had taken refuge in the Mansion of the Marquis of Zweik . The other aristocratic mansions would be similar .
Many have lost their homes in the war . They had a makeshift house, but this rain won't make anything useful .
I can't help complaining here naturally, even though I think you did it .
"Can't Al help you?
I asked if Fine could handle it .
In contrast, I shrug my shoulders .
"I'll do it if I can . But it is impossible to blow up such a wide range of natural phenomena without being noticed . It's a lot of hard work, even if it's a condition to be noticed . "
Honestly, it's not worth the cost .
Besides, the damage has already occurred .
When I decide not to do it first, I have to go with the policy of not doing it anymore .
"That's right . . . I'm sorry"
"You don't have to apologize . Even I think so . I was wondering if someone could do something about it . "
Sighing loudly, I slapped myself in the cheek with both hands .
If the weather is bad, my thoughts come close to negative .
Now we have to do what we can .
Switch .
Sebastian showed up in the room telling himself that .
"Mr . Arnold . "
"What happened?
"A river is about to flood the Marquis of Zweik . "
"That sucks . "
Saying so, I'll spread out the map I had .
There is one big river flowing into the Marquis of Zweik .
If the river floods in the Marquis of Zweik, the centre of the north, the north will finally be hit hard .
That's all you have to avoid .
"Let's go . Whatever it takes to prevent flooding . "
"But how do we prevent flooding?

Reinforce the river .
That's why I wore the rain gear I had in my room .
I have to go to the field to reinforce it .
"I'll leave this to Fine . Say hello to the people . "
"Ha, yes! Be careful!
"I'm fine . I'm just looking at the scene . Call Charles and Elna . "
Ha .
This made the mansion rushed at once .

"Al, it's dangerous!
"You can't leave me alone, can you? Let's go . "
The Knights of the Third Guard and the Knights of the Marquis of Zweik ordered me to prepare to leave .
But it's heavy rain and strong winds .
Approaching the river near the flood .
It is only natural to say that it is dangerous . Anyway, Elna is my escort .
"Al! Are you out of your mind?!
"I'm crazy . Get ready . "
Charles, who came late, doubts my sanity the most .

Sighing at such a char, I ordered him to prepare .
"How can I be a guard!?
"I can't help it! I'm stopping you!
"Forcefully imprisoned!
"There's no way you can do that! If the Knights of the Guards were imprisoned, they'd laugh at you!? You're in jail!
"There's no way you can do that! He's a plenipotentiary standing above the northern nobles!
We started talking about my confinement in the back .
I don't know, even in this situation . Can you afford it? You two are in trouble judging .
"Cut it out . If you don't want to follow me, that's fine .
"That's not what I'm saying!
"That's right! Just worried . . . . . "
"It won't start unless I go . The policy was indicated . Do what you can before you worry . Much more for the people than for what they say . "
" . . . I understand . . . "
"Admit it!? If we get close to the river under these circumstances, it's gonna cost us our lives!
"Just get ready! You can't say anything anymore!
That's a childhood habit .
You know very well .
Marc and the Knights of the Third Guard, who were waiting around, were also watching with astonishment .
Did you feel that Charles could no longer be stopped? I sighed a little .
Promise me you won't be rude .
I can't promise you that .
"Oh no . . . . "
"Now you have two choices . Believe me or not . Elna believed me . What about Charles?
" . . . of course I believe you . "
"Then let's go . Better than during civil unrest . "
That brings me closer to Mark .
"I want to hear your opinion as a skilled knight . Do you think it's safe weather for an unskilled man to ride a horse?
"I won't be able to do it without me . Rest assured . We have a carriage . It's a bespoke item, so the muddy road is fine . "
"Are you ready?
"This is not the first time I've ever been with you in your life . "
That's true too . It seems that there is a connection with the water when I'm with you . Can you help me if I drown?
"Are you kidding me? I'm not sure I can help you this time, so please be careful . "
That's how Mark choked his neck .
With such a bitter smile on Marc, the knights of the Marquis of Zweik are ready .
"I understand the danger . Still, you can't miss the damage in front of you now that you've been tasked with the North . Follow me . I'll do everything I can right now . "
That's why we left the Mansion of the Marquis of Zweik .
