Charging Magic With a Smile~ Infinite Magic Power After Being Reincarnated Into a Different World Chapter 25

Marato’s stronghold was a town named Ribek.

After a long time of being controlled by Marato’s military power, it was now reaching the end of its rope.

「Akito-san!」

The one who called out to me was Gerashim.

From behind him I saw the rest of the townspeople from Magatan, all armed.

「So you came Gerashim?」

「Then that’s Agafon over there?」

「Huh? Those guys came too?」

「Is that so?」

I was surprised.

I could hear the sounds of sporadic fighting coming here in Ribek.

Bisk, Magatan,…..and Akito(temporary).

Ribek was under attack from three different towns. Now that they’d lost their leader, the town was completely dropped into a panicked state.

After the news of Marato’s death spread around, his remaining subordinates surrendered within a short amount of time.

Nighttime, Marato’s residence.

We had gathered in the shiny mansion’s most resplendent room.

Me, Madway, Agafon, and Gerashim.

The representatives of the three towns were all here.

The first one to open their mouth was Madway.

「That Marato guy’s subordinates all surrendered. It seems like most of them were made to serve using his strength. Now that he’s dead they’re feeling half relieved and half 『helpless』 apparently.」

Next Agafon spoke up.

「The residents Ribek are thankful to you Akito-san. Marato did similar things in this town and they are well experienced with his tyranny. The mayor said that they wanted to express their thanks.」

Last Gerashim opened his mouth.

「However, they are worried about what they will do from now on. The town itself has a Fountain of Ilia so monsters won’t usually attack, but they can’t just stay cooped up in the town forever.」

「Like hunting or something…」
「If there was someone to replace Marato it’d be good…」

The three of them said and furtively glanced at me.

It seems like they want me to take Marato’s place…

「…..there just has to be patrols and guards right?」

I had thought that it was the perfect time because I had just increased to a silver card. If I used it then patrols and guarding would be easy.

However, they replied somewhat unexpectedly.

「Could you govern these four towns?」

It seems that instead of maintaining sovereignty, they wanted me to rule their towns.

I was relaxing in another room of the golden mansion.

Next to me were Risha and Mira who were taking it easy and serving me.

The two engaged me in some small talk.

「Master, what do you intend to do?」
「I intend to accept.」

I replied readily.

「The plan was originally to someday gather these towns and create a country right?」

I said. Risha was there when I met the goddess so she understood and nodded.

「Yes.」

「Yes indeed!」
「Then Master…..what do you think you will become?」

Mira tilted her head in curiosity.

「I think it’d be good to be called King!」

「Is that so?」

「Sooner or later&helli

p;」

I answered and looked at the two of them once more.

The golden haired, elf eared race.
Eternal Slave, my slaves.

I wanted to show them my appreciation.

「You two have really worked hard.」

「We’re Master’s slaves, so we’re doing what’s expected.」

「Ok!」
「I understand.」

The two of them had smiles across their faces.

—Magic has been charged by 5,000—
—Magic has been charged by 5,000—

‘Please continue to work for my sake’ just by saying those words I received a charge of 10,000 magic.

The four towns were placed under my rule in the blink of an eye.

Three of the towns had received my help and been rebuilt, so there was no real dissent.

Because I defeated Marato I ended up obtaining the town of Ribek for better or worse.

And just like that I controlled four towns.

「This is sudden, but would we be able to take in one more town?」

Gerashim had come to ask me.

「One more you say?」

「I see.」

I thought for a bit, then nodded.

At this point we’d wouldn’t be any worse off if we accepted 20 more.

「I understand.」
Gerashim nodded.

I started thinking.

That town gave me the feeling of when I just started out. I built a town of about 30 people where I found Madway.

There were quite a few things I needed to do.

I had to make sure that my people had food, clothing, and shelter. Then I needed to make sure they had the tools to do things for themselves.

This work came with the territory.

Those people had come all this way for help so I thought they should have various circumstances.

「The representative is here now. Do you want to meet him Akito-san?」
「I’ll meet him.」

I stood and left the room with Gerashim.

「So, what kind of guy is this?」

「A handsome guy (Ikemen) huh?」

「Oh.」

Kinda like this one guy I know.

「That’s right. He came here with a slave. An Eternal Slave just like the ones you have Akito-san.」
「……..huh」

There’s no one else it could be.

As I made a quick guess I followed Gerashim.
We arrived at the reception chamber and entered.

Then,

「Seiya….」
「You are——」

Seiya was sitting, but when he saw me he jumped up from his seat.

The man who was summoned to this world at the same time as me, the man who was given an Eternal Slave by the goddess, and the man who had the same power to create.

Though to make things you need to charge magic, and his method was completely different from mine. I feel like he’ll have a really difficult time.

「Why are you here!?」

「Join you? Wait…it can’t be…」

Seiya looked at Gerashim in shock.

「That’s right. Akito-san is our leader. He rules four towns so far.」

「Nothing much.」

It’d be a pain to explain everything, so let’s move on to the main issue.

「Are you going to join Seiya?」
「Who would join under you!」

That’s what I expected.

The last time I’d seen him, Seiya had already begun to think of me as a sort of enemy.

Well from the start he had looked down on me.

Be that as it may, he was not the kind of man who would join me.

「Is that really alright? Your place is—–
「Shut up! That has nothing to do with you!」

Seiya yelled in response to Gerashim’s concern. Gerashim frowned and knit his eyebrows.

「Ch! Who’d join such a place? Let’s go home idiot!」

Seiya said and kicked his slave hard. He then left by himself as fast as he could.

His slave had been kicked and hit her head. She got up unsteadily and slowly followed Seiya.

「Akito-san that is….?」

「Ok…….but…」

「I’d feel bad if we just left those 20 people to live under him.」
「………..」

I couldn’t answer. I couldn’t find the right words to say.

20 people huh…….

「That’s right. How many citizens do we have now?」

「I see.」

1,037 people…

That’s quite a difference from before.
