Yamato Empire Chronicle – TS Girl, Conquering the Fantasy World With the Strongest Modern Nation Made in a Game - Chapter 34

Chapter 34: The Führer and the King of Beasts

So now, the war against Beastvania is finally coming to an end. 

Yup, the war is over. 

It’s been a long time, I started this war around June of this year and soon it will be December. Negligent aside, we have been fighting for about six months. 

During this time, there were a lot of things happening on the Empire’s mainland, there was also a bit of incident on the Western Continent, which is dominated by Elves… 

“Your Excellency, this is King Lycan II of Beastvania.” 

“Nn, perfect job. Captain Wakabayashi.” 

“It’s an Honor, sir” 

Fugaku’s foredeck. The place is just in front of the bridge. 

There, 100 armed Imperial Guard maids, with their guns ready, formed a line and stood on high alert. 

The captain of the cruiser Izumi is bringing along a muscular, macho lion Beastkin. 

So this guy is Lycan II… 

He looks more like a leader of a barbarian tribe than a king. He looks like a martial artist. 

They have him placed in a handcuffed, kneeling, with his head rubbing against the deck…A rather uncouth spectacle, if you ask me. 

He looks like a loser. 

Is this how the losing side would end up…I don’t want to be in the same position. 

Anyway, since it’s the first time we’ve met, let’s say hello to each other. 

“This is the first time we have met, Lycan II. I am Eryutheia, Führer of the Yamato Empire.” 

“Grrr… Damn you!… Gubhah!” 

Lycan II raises his head and tries to glare at me. 

But he couldn’t do it. 

Because… 

“How presumptuous of you to look at my Eryu-san.” 

That’s because Ayame-san kicked him in the back of his head so that he couldn’t raise it. 

It’s a quick, lightning-fast move. 

A moment ago, she had been standing behind me with a cool but composed expression on her face, but the next thing I knew, she was right in front of Lycan II, giving him a good kick to the head. 

Not even a professional martial artist could have done it so quickly. 

“…Gughah! A-are you trying to kill me, you maid!” 

It seems that Lycan II is also surprised by the blood dripping from his face. 

“It’s a technique that I trained to protect Eryu-san.” 

Saying that, Ayame-san returns to my side while fixing her disheveled maid’s uniform. 

That, aren’t you mistaken about the technique you trained for peeping? 

No matter how I resist, she always slips in. Whether it’s in the bathroom or the toilet. 

　……ahem. 

I’m getting a little sidetracked here, so back to the topic at hand. 

“Err, there is no doubt that you are Lycan II, King of Beastvania.” 

“That’s right… So what’s the deal, furless ape? You capturing me here.” 

“Mm, I don’t mind explaining it, but the first thing is I don’t like the way you call us ‘furless apes’. I do have a name, Eryutheia.” 

“Hmph, why do I, the superior species, the beastkin, have to… Gubraagrh.” 

Having said that, Lycan II was kicked again by Ayame-san. 

Apparently, he has once again touched Ayame-san’s nerve. 

Well, that’s what you got by calling me a furless ape next to a yandere…That’s just how it goes, isn’t it? 

“G-Grrr… Damn you, I’m the king, how dare you… Don’t you know the word ‘courtesy’?” 

“You are the one who is disrespectful to the Great Führer Eryutheia, the ruler of our empire. This one needs to be educated.” 

“What do you mean, Education?… Wait a damn minute, what’s that thing you’re holding in your hand?” 

“These are oyster shells. These are used to scrape off the flesh. You know, it hurts very, very much. It is so painful that it makes you want not to live.” 

While smiling, Ayame shoves the oyster shell at Lycan II. Gush, blood came out… 

“Your Excellency, you must not look.” 

When I was just about to look at it, my vision suddenly went completely dark… 

It seems that Yozakura-san, who was nearby blindfolded me from behind. 

I don’t have that much tolerance for grotesque things, so that helps. 

However…It sounds like a horrific scene. “Gu, Gruaah! S-Stop it!” “U-Ugyaak! W-wait a sec, calm down, maid. That’s right, Eryutheia. Okay, I got it.” 

Yozakura-san takes off the blindfold… Lycan II, who was covered in blood, was frantically rubbing his head on the ground in front of Ayame-san. 

“Listen, you shitty cat, it’s not just Eryutheia. She’s the most beautiful girl in the world, Eryutheia.” 

“I got it! I know, so stop the torture!” 

By the way, apparently, the torture of oyster shells is excruciating. An ordinary knife is incomparable to this… Well, oyster shells are jagged, after all. 

Phew, at any rate, this solves the problem to some degree…If we don’t crush their beastkin spirit here, it will be troublesome later on. 

I mean, Ayame-san is giving off some kind of black aura, isn’t she? What is up with her? 

“Hey, Captain Yozakura. What are you doing to my Eryu-san? Embracing her from behind.” 

“The Führer cannot be shown torture. That’s why I blindfolded her. Is there a problem?” 

“…Well, there’s none. However, Eryu-san is mine. Don’t forget this.” 

“‘The Führer is sacred and inviolable’―Making the Führer one’s personal property is against the Constitution, Chief of the Imperial Guard.” 

Ayame turns away unhappily. These two are still unfriendly as ever… 

Oops, that’s not what I’m talking about. 

The important thing is the post-war negotiations. 

I snap my fingers, and out of nowhere, Ayame-san prepares a soft chair for me. 

I sit on it and look down at Lycan II, who kneels down. 

“So, Lycan II. That’s the reason why we caught you… Well, simply put, surrender.” 

“Hah, nonsense. Do you think beastkins will surrender so easily?” 

“Otherwise, we will kill you. I want you to understand that your life and death are in our hands.” 

Of course, it’s a lie. 

I don’t want to do something foolish like burning down the market myself during this time. However, the point here is to let them know that we can kill them all if we want to… 

“If you surrender and follow our instructions, we will spare your life. I hate unnecessary killing. But if you become the enemy of the empire… You know what I mean, right?” 

Lycan II, with his face down, contemplating. 

“Grr… What will happen to me, Lycan II, if I surrender? Are you gonna execute me? Is there a guarantee for my life?” 

“We don’t care who the king of the country is, as long as he complies with our demands Of course, even if it’s you. You get it, right?” 

I’m not going to kill you, so why don’t you just surrender, you idiot. 

“You best surrender quickly. If you refuse to surrender, we will simply use that ship to burn down the city that you call home.” 

Saying so, I point to the battleship Fuji which is sailing right next to Fugaku. 

“I’m sure you’re well aware of the power of that battleship…” 

“I know there’s no chance of winning… A-all right, my country will surrender to you. Now, what are your terms…” 

“The documents on that table summarize it all.” 

I point him to a table prepared on the deck. This is the table for signing the instrument of surrender. 

By the way, the content is not that difficult. 

One, Yamato Empire and Beastvania Beastkin Nation are on equal relations of friendship. 

Two, Beastvania Beastkin Nation will pay 10 tons of gold as postwar compensation. This may be substituted for other goods. 

Three, Beastvania Beastkin Nation will sign a trade treaty with the Empire and completely abolish tariffs. 

Four, Beastvania Beastkin Nation will stop discriminating against half-beastkins and will strive to build an independent nation for half-beastkins. 

In short, you lost the war, so you should pay us compensation, let us form a friendship, and while we’re at it, help the half-beastkins to create their nation. 

By the way, 10 tons of gold is about… 50 billion Japanese yen in the 21st century?　

It should be equivalent to the national budget of Beastvania. 

Lycan II, while still in restraints, reaches the table and confirms the documents. He looks like he doesn’t like it…Well, I think I gave them much better terms than just getting them all slaughtered. 

We are also spending money on the war, and we need to recoup some of it. 

“If there is no problem, sign the Instrument of Surrender. Otherwise… You will die here.” 

“I-I know. But, actually, the ‘King’s Seal’ is in the royal castle! So, let me go back and get it!” 

King’s Seal…It is a kind of seal for the king’s exclusive use. We have something similar in my country, the Führer Seal, which certifies that I, the Führer, have approved it. 

But, well, if he doesn’t have it… 

“I can sign it in my handwriting if you like?” 

“No, that’s not going to cut it! This is an important document that will determine the course of the nation. It is also necessary to let the country know that it belongs to the rightful king.” 

Lycan II desperately pleads this to me. 

Hmm, well, you have a point. 

It is an agreement between nations, and it is reasonable that it cannot be done in an arbitrary manner. 

“…I understand. Captain Yozakura, set the course of Fugaku to Lycanvania. Please send this king back for me.” 

“Understood, your excellency. however…” 

“If he tries to escape, kill every single last one of them.” 

“Yes…!” 

I hope he doesn’t run away. If he runs away…It’ll be troublesome. 

Hmm, what’s the matter with you, Ayame-san? Bringing me a rope. 

Eh, did seeing Lycan II tied up get you interested in bondage play? 

No way that rope you’re gonna use on me… Hey, wait, don’t tie me up! Why is this girl getting in heat at this important time! 

Come on, don’t just smile around, please help me!
