Chapter 1001: Tiselle’s Ambition V
I am the Unifiying King of the Careland region.
The Unifiying King.

The apology from the angels ended up being brushed aside when dragon-dono who claims this area as his territory showed up.
Alright.
Very good.
Dragon-dono really understands how things work.
「Well, I was dragged into Tiselle-sama’s affairs myself……」
I heard the story from an outside merchant.
The Six Dragon God Kingdom, right.
「Yes, that. Well, joining it made my own kind look at me with more respect, so it was not all bad」
Dragon-dono’s name is Zahazaha.
Together with his wife, Haifreniars, he controlled the territory around the royal capital.
「I have already told my wife properly about this place, so there will be no trouble」
Much appreciated.
Very reliable.
Extremely reliable.
As expected of dragon-dono.
Dragon-dono should be able to keep Lady Tiselle in check.
「No, that is impossible. Impossible, impossible, absolutely impossible. Her father is incredible」
Her father, meaning the husband of the Angel of Annihilation, right.
「……Ah, that is how you see it」
Is that wrong?
「It is true, but he has other wives as well」
Others.
Ah, well, of course.
It is not strange for someone with wealth and power to have many spouses.
「Do not say you heard this from me」
After that warning, dragon-dono told me that Lady Tiselle’s father has as a wife a dragon named Hakuren, said to be the most ferocious dragon in the world.
What do you mean?
Is Lady Tiselle’s father a monster.
「Something like that. Which is why restraining Tiselle-sama, one of his daughters, is impossible」
What, there is really no way.
「Ah, if you wanted to try, the only option would be to speak to her father……Want to try?」
……Scary?
「No, he is ordinary. Terrifyingly ordinary」
Then……
「Calm down. I said he was something like a monster, remember. How could an ordinary man take Hakuren-sama and the angels as wives?」
……
「By the way, he has even more wives」
………………
「Even the Demon King treats that man with respect」
The Demon King.
The Demon King as in the one ruling the Demon Realm that the great powers are fighting together against with everything they have.
「That Demon King」
………………
Um, then, how can we avoid the apology from the angels.
「All you can do is keep telling Tiselle-sama that it is unnecessary」
That is hopeless.
「Live strong. I will help you as much as I can」
Ugh, thank you very much.

After that… I guess that works.
I desperately kept telling Lady Tiselle that an apology from the angels was unnecessary.
No “but” and no “however”.
It was all in the past.
An apology that the other side does not want is violence.
More than apologies, actions matter.
What is important is not causing trouble from now on.
Ah, and we will also stop complaining.
Yes, that was our fault too.
Getting excited over old stories like that.
Let us forget the past.
Let us move forward toward a new future.
That was what I insisted on, doing my best.
The other territorial kings supported me as well.
Thank you.
A lot happened, but thanks to Lady Tiselle, the Careland region truly became one.
Surely the future will be beautiful.
By the way, about the next Unifiying King Selection Battle, how about holding it next year?
No, no, I really felt my lack of strength.
Do not hold back.
Everyone wants to fight, right?
I will sit out, but I want you all to do your best.
……
The Careland region split cleanly in two, between me and everyone else.
Why!

The country name was decided.
It became the United Kingdom of the Careland Region.
Development is progressing rapidly everywhere.
The merchants coming from outside are very scary, but it seems Lady Tiselle and Ekaterise-sensei negotiated in advance, so the deals are not bad.
The quality of food has also improved.
Feeling that meals are delicious is a rare sensation for me.
Well, sometimes I feel like moving my body in battle, but…
There is no one to fight.
Ah, how about rebelling against the United Kingdom of the Careland Region?
「A king rebelling against his own country makes no sense」
A far-sighted civil servant looks at me like, see, this is why we told you to lose.
「In any case, if you did that now, you would not just be crushed, the people would resent you. Things have finally become peaceful」
Guh.
…General, how about the general?
You want to fight, right?
This general is the guard who led the command that defeated Lady Tiselle’s giant golem.
I appointed him as a general.
If it is him, surely he will agree with me.
「Ah, no, I also prefer peace」
What?
「Even if things stay as it is, we can always ask Tiselle-sama, Ekaterise-sama, and E3-sama to fight us」
…Did you win?
「Total defeat」
Yeah.
I cannot win either.
Maybe you should be the kings.
「Our king is the Unifiying King」
Damn.
「Ah, speaking of which, Tiselle-sama said she has something to discuss with you, my king」
You should have said that sooner.

Hello.
I am a human man known as the Conquering King.
I am the king of the Jidoen Kingdom.
Yes, the Conquering King.
The Unifiying King of the United Kingdom of the Careland Region?
Hahaha, what are you talking about.
The Conquering King.
I am the Conquering King.
Such a man as I am now traveling by ship.
My destination is a place called Village Five in the Demon King’s Kingdom.
It seems Lady Tiselle’s father is there.
……
Why?
How did it come to this?
I should have resisted.
First of all, it is strange for a king of a country that was just unified to go on a long journey.
Even I understand that.
A king should stay in his country and serve as a stabilizing presence.
And yet, after talking things over with Lady Tiselle, this is how it turned out.
She said that, considering the long-term stability of the United Kingdom of the Careland Region, it would be best to properly greet her father.
Well, that might be true.
He is someone even the Demon King is careful around.
But is he not too far away?
When I said that, the idea of going by dragon came up, so I hurriedly asked to go by ship instead.
……
Once more.
Why did this happen?
I know.
In the end, it is mostly the angels’ fault.
Oops, no complaining.
Ah, I wonder if this ship might wreck somewhere.
I would like to live peacefully on a deserted island.

Territorial King A「What should we do about the country name?」
Territorial King B「I want to include the idea of not being hostile to the angels」
Territorial King C「Not being hostile? What kind of country name would that be?」
Territorial King D「The Kingdom Forgiven by the Angels」
Territorial King E「If Tiselle-sama is there, would that be safe?」
Territorial King F「Wait, wait. That would definitely get us scolded by the angels. What if they come here?」
Territorial King G「Then how about something straightforward like the Garet Kingdom Tiselle Unified Territory?」
Territorial King H「Then the Unifiying King would become the Unified Territory King, would he not?」
Territorial King I「If that happens, what would we territory kings be called?」
Territorial King J「This is a pain. How about just the Careland Region Kingdom?」
Territorial King K「I want to include Federation. Please include Federation」
Territorial King L「Then, the United Kingdom of the Careland Region Federation」
Territorial King N「Decided!」
