ONE COULD BE THE KING OF ANOTHER WORLD
Volume 1 (Ch 2 STARTING FROM ZERO) Part 2

"Three Dukedoms" refers to two dukes and one duke who held control over land, sea, and air forces.

The current holders of the Three Dukedoms are as follows:

Royal Moniyan Army General, Duke Georg Carmin e. A beastman with a lion's mane. He commanded his army with the intensity of the blazing flames, igniting fear into the hearts of our enemies.

Royal Navy Admiral Moniyan, Duchess Excel Walter. A sea serpent descends from the pirates. She is a rising woman, not only adept at fleet fighting but also in politics.

Royal Air Force General Moniyan, Duke Castor Vargas. A dragon. He was the king of the heavens and the leader of the stars of the royal army, the Knights of Wyvern.

In return for swearing allegiance to the kingdom, their families were allowed to hold territory (dovey) within the kingdom, where they were given self-rule.

By the time the kingdom was established, it had been created by the unification of many races, this system had been placed to protect their race from friction with others. However, even now, with all races living in harmony, the system still remained in place. In exchange for territory, their families risk their lives to defend the life they love. It was the pride of the Three Dukedoms.

However, right now, the Three Dukedoms had taken their forces and were exiling themselves in their own territory. It seems that the three, with their great love and respect for the former king, have yet to recognize David, who had ascended the throne in a way that seemed like he had usurped it, as their liaison. That's the source of David's current concern.

If you combine all three duchies, they make up a third of the country. Without cooperation, David's reforms would be difficult to achieve.

I myself have written to Duke Carmine, who loves me like a daughter, several times, asking her to meet with David in person, but the answer has always been, "Until now, the answer has always been, "Until now, I see no reason to believe it."

He was a person who was firm in his beliefs, but I never knew that he was so stubborn. So why is he so stubborn this time? For my part, I hope he will accept David as soon as possible.

Without knowing how I felt, David shook Sir Ludwin's hand. "I'm David Mashlow. Technically, I am the king of this country now."

"I'm Ludwin Arcs. I heard a rumour about your hard work from the civil servant."

"Well, you told the civil servant,

'If you have time to gossip,

work hard for me."

"Hahaha, I'll do it. Do you mind if I join

You for breakfast?"

"No problem with me."

"Thank you."

Sir Ludwin brought a tray of breakfast, and sat down next to me. "So, how's it going? By this reform of yours, I mean, Your Majesty."

"... Not too well," lamented David among the bites of toast. "We mainly suffer from a lack of qualified people. Currently, I inherited the previous king's advisor. In other words, the people who leave the country alone until it gets this bad. Put the Prime Minister aside

Marx, the rest is useless."

This country is an autocratic country. The will of the king is reflected in his politics.

There is a People's Congress in which all citizens have the right to elect representatives, but that is only the place where laws and policies to "suggest" to the king are drafted, he said, and these laws and policies would then be "recommended" "To the king by the prime minister

ministerial. In short, it is a glorified box of suggestions, and whether these suggestions will be implemented or not fully

up king.

Although, that said, if the king did whatever he wanted, he would lose the hearts of the people, and would likely see himself overthrown by the Three Dukedoms.

Further, when the king wants to

In fact, even before ascending the throne (in this kingdom, ever since someone became a prince), a would-be king would start gathering people who might be his advisors. But with Souma who ascended the throne so suddenly, he had none.

"People who can tell me things I want to know, and who will work hard on the tasks I set out to do" he said. "That's the kind of personal follower I want.

"I understand. All who stand above others long to have capable subordinates, "said Sir Ludwin.

"Is that the same for you in the Forbidden Army?"

"Yes. Most of the graduates from the Officers Academy requested to be assigned to the Three Dukedom army. Because, while they call us the Forbidden Army, we are basically just the capital's defense forces. That's not a popular post, is it, Princess?"

"Yeah .. I don't think so. Most of my classmates went to the Three Dukedom army."

I was on the ground, but it was

because I have no point in joining the Forbidden Army, as it exists to protect the royal family.

"Well, that's how. These days, the Forbidden Army has many faults and eccentricities in it. We even have a mad scientist who moved into us from Branch

Weapons Development."

"Oh, now it sounds like someone I want to meet!" Said David.

Seeing David's enthusiasm, Sir Ludwin replied, "I'll introduce you sometime." He laughed wryly.

After that, we talked for a while and parted ways with Sir Ludwin.

When I return to my room, I will send another letter encouraging Duke Carmine to meet with David, I thought to myself.

"We are really suffering from a lack of capable people!" My

moaning.

"I-I guess.." said Liscia.

I tried to persuade Liscia, but she looked a bit confused.

Since I have worked with my abilities so hard, it might level up. Lately, I was able to move up to four things at once (effectively, I could do a five-person job), but even with that, it was only equivalent to having one extra person. Someone who has no knowledge or skills that I lack. All I need is a person with knowledge I don't have. People with skills I don't have. I really want to have people like that.

and that, I decided to gather them.

"So, because of that, I thought I'd use the Jewel Voice Broadcast."

"The Sound of Jewels?"

Jewel Voice Broadcast is a system for sending the voice of the king to all regions of the country. In the Jewel Sound Room in the palace, there was a floating gem that should have a diameter of about two meters. The gem is said to be inspired by the magic of air spirits, sylphs, and water spirits. It would give the voice of the king to the whole country, and in cities with suitable arrangements, it could even project its image. Past kings apparently used Jewel Voice Broadcas to unveil new constitutions, or to declare war on other nations, that sort of thing.

"I'll bet you'll be the first to use it to gather capable people,"

liscia said, looking impressed.
