New Life as the Kingdom's Youngest Son

Agnes came to Aldric who was sitting at a table without drinking at all "Aldric survived... I've heard everything from Domma" Aldric scratched his head in shame "ah... I'm used to just doing my best"

agnes' eyes narrowed slightly "well.... Tell Aldric why did you shoot those prisoners ? Shouldn't we be saving everyone" Aldric later explained "because it's the action we need"

"but it's still wrong we should have saved them" Aldric seemed to have paused where this talk would have led them "well from your word alone we have a different purpose in this movement, you're here to save everyone... And I'm here to seize and secure the dwarf capital, from the beginning our goals are different obviously our ways will also be different"

"stay away... They were not guilty and did not deserve to die" Aldric nodded "i understand... Then why did you send your troops to fight ? They are innocent, right ? Why did you send them to fight that could have taken their lives ?"

Aldric added "your army and mine are innocent too, right ? You want to save everyone but you don't save your own troops instead send them to the battlefield, if you say 'everything' then they should be counted right ?"

Agnes does not know what to answer, but it remains in her heart that she wants to save everyone and she believes she can do that if only she is stronger and can prove Aldric wrong, until Aldric touches his shoulder.

"but I also understand how you feel, as a general I have to attach great importance to objective and long-term impact while I as a human feel sorry for them, as a general, but in the end a sacrifice must be made even if the victim does not want it.... They want to hold us back and I refuse to hold back because we don't have time"

Agnes nodded her head anyway she insisted on saving everyone even if she did not save a single prisoner, she had to train or find a way to save everyone in that condition before.

The Celestial being arrived at that moment was Radiant everyone still partying it seemed like they were getting drunk but it seemed that the radiant did not mind "here what is the name Aldric ?" Agnes held Aldric's hand and held him up "here" Radiant went straight to him and Agnes went "good luck"

Aldric muttered little "asshole.", "Aldric... Nice to meet you, I was sent by Goddess Victoria... And he wants you to have this" Radiant pulled out a dagger, dali it had the logo of three swords crossed in gold "this is bravery because you defend your city even against all the odds you defend it"

Radiant then gave it to Aldric, because Aldric used steel armor it is impossible to associate it to his clothes Aradia smiled before going to teleport "thank you for the hard work" he just disappeared.

And Credric comes to Aldric "wow... Waw... Waw... Look at that first digali you" Aldric felt unworthy of it felt like his heart did not want the dig as if it should be given to someone else.

"remember the party attack that time ? Yes I got it there, I saved a lot of people fighting to the brink... Haha.. I'm not even aware of my own actions and you must be the same, you just want to protect everyone right ?"

Aldric nodded but there was an uneasy feeling, a worry about whether the burrow was worth it... Are all his actions really that big ? Aldric questioned himself whether he was right or if he was someone else.

This feeling weighed down his heart and his mind, it felt like he wanted to quickly go home Aldric kept his dantian in his magic bag and continue whatever fate gave him even though he felt unsure of himself.

They were allowed to stay in the dwarf kingdom they did not refuse and stayed there for 2 weeks and returned to their respective kingdoms, when Aldric arrived in his city he was greeted warmly by his people he was greeted with praise and thanks.

Vermut was also the same when Aldric walked into his town hall he was directly hugged by Vermut "hahaha... You miss me huh ?...." Aldric sat down at his desk and fitting in once it was his city income day and Aldric was shocked.

"where did we get this much gold ? It feels like every month our income increases now we're making a lot of gold even my share gets 5,000 gold ?" Andy nodded "surprisingly to the food you found, so it became very popular and we even started getting orders from outside the city and the country next door, tapj we haven't responded waiting for you and the king himself to decide"

Alric initially let his citizens buy tofu was as an experiment but it seemed that the situation had become uncontrollable when he dusted to himself, Aldric sighed softly "alright... Let's wake up some factory know again if that's what they want" Andy noted it in the book and nodded.

Andy then spoke "oh yes sir, the Dark Iron Cluster you created with those disciples and blacksmiths ?" Aldric nodded "well how is the production what all the units have been made ?" Andy nodded "already... But many foreign news seekers want to know what is possible what should we do ?"

Aldric already knew this was going to happen so he made the location of the Dark Iron Cluster's creation and research as a place that was banned without permission from him directly "just give them ambiguous and hard-to-understand answers.I'll even give them the wrong facts, I don't care about journalists as long as they don't enter the forbidden area they're safe"

Andy nodded "I'll do it... And what about your next project you say you want to make something called a heavy crossbow"

Aldric nodded "yes that's how the design has no material already there and now it's just to make a prototype until we get the results, bolt (crossbow arrows) also I want to make it aerodimis as much as possible to reach a longer distance"
