FLTL Ch 379. Widel - III

Join up as the Duke of Tiranat to read more than 50 chapters ahead!

“I know you all are tired,” the baron began. “You’ve been working all day, and you want to eat and rest, so I won’t take too long. But I have two big announcements for you all."

The crowd went even quieter, like everyone had decided to hold their breath at the same time. Widel found herself hanging on his each spoken word too, wondering what the announcement was going to be. She kept sta...

LOTM Ch 13. Monsters

***

A/N: It's a super long chapter today. Enjoy!

***

It continued like that for a while, with everyone hacking and slashing at the monsters to keep them at bay—including even Alden now—as they rode faster and faster to reach home. Before long, they passed a bend on the dirt path, and Alden saw the edge of the forest approaching. He spurred his horse again for a final push as they broke through the treeline within a few moments, the monsters still chasing them, but...

LOTM Ch 12. Options

***

Alden shook his head. There was no way crossbows would be useful for anything other than the smallest of monsters, if that. It was still a good idea to make them, since they could also be used for hunting and defense against other humans—like that bastard Baron Marachi’s men—but they needed something more powerful to defend against the monsters, with winter only a few months away. That was especially true if the rumors of Garitus charging people for protection turned ou...

LOTM Ch 11. The Lokir

A/N: Hey everyone. Welcome back to the new story. This is the same story MLI that you have been reading, but I have changed its name to 'Isekai'd As A Lord Of The Manor' , or in short, LOTM. That will be the tag I will be using in the future in the title of its chapters. Enjoy!

The sailboat bumped softly against the pier, gently bobbing up and down with the flow of the water in the Lokir River. The boat was long and shallow, with a series of i...

Widel tried to look past the enormous buildings. There was a lot of open ground ahead of them on the right, while on the left, she saw a smaller palisade wall that had to be the manor. There were a few wooden houses visible in the distance too, but no huts. No damaged and half-burnt shacks. It was weird. Really weird. 

Closer to them, on the right, she saw construction work underway. S...

~ Approaching Tiranat ~

Widel was tired. And hungry. And angry.

Just how far did she have to keep walking! They had been walking south for days and days, but this miraculous village of Tiranat was still not in sight. Tesyb kept saying they were close, and the other guards kept repeating the same thing, but her tired legs did not care a...

A/N: A minor change has been made in the previous chapter to reflect that there are two gates in the new design of double story longhouse blocks, to cater to the larger number of people living in them.

“That’s nearly 250 people per block!” Duvas grinned. “Almost twice the capacity of the first ones. Now I just hope it’s finished soon. The cramped conditions are already causin...

“I went to the market square and to the north,” the majordomo said. “The deconstruction of the abandoned huts is almost done. The last few shacks will be taken down by evening. Most of the shops in the market square are proper wooden houses, so they’re still standing, even though a lot of them are damaged. Same with the makeshift vegetable stalls. But we can’t afford to pull those buildings ...

MLI Ch 10. Marachi

***

A/N: Hey everyone. Enjoy a bonus chapter today!

***

Vusato’s gaze flicked at Alden for a moment. His horse plodded steadily, as he took a moment before speaking. “This barony is large enough,” he said. “Larger than most, because not many choose to live this close to the northeast, where the monsters come down. Whether you call it lucky or unlucky is up to you.”

"Still, what marks our borders?" Alden asked again.

Vusato glanced at him sideways, b...

MLI Ch 9. Into The New World

“Why don't we clear the trees further?” Alden asked, trying to take his mind away from the upcoming monster threat. “Wouldn’t it give the guards a better view from the watchtowers? As it stands, it only makes it easier for monsters to hide so close to us."

Vusato’s mouth was set in a thin line. “We clear out around the wall every spring when people come back from Garitus, but the forest starts to creep in after a few months if we don’t keep at it—which w...

MLI Ch 8. Non-Humans

***

The majordomo shook his head and continued before Alden could reply, "A long time ago—probably centuries ago—when the monster threat from the north wasn't that serious, there was a lot of persecution of non-human races. The church of light considers them as inferior beings forsaken by the god, so no church-following village or town wants to see non-humans living amongst them—"

Roderic glowered at him. "Not as a free person anyway! There are a lot of non-human working...

When the first rush around the food settled down, Widel pointed toward the swords at the guards’ belts.

“You've brought gifts from the goddess,” she said, while glancing at satchels of grain and bread. “It's something we never expected, and I thank you for it. You've even invited us to your incredible village where we will supposedly get such meals regularly.” Her gaze went to their...

Feroy gave her a small, easy smile, which did nearly nothing to soften the woman's expression. “We’re from Tiranat, and we came to invite you to come back with us. In our village, you all will get—"

“I knew it!” she cut in sharply. “Tiranat is where our men went! And you killed all of them! You want to do the same with us!"

The next morning, Tesyb, Feroy and the others had left early for the encampment. The man who lived there and three wagon drivers had come along, and they all had been walking for nearly three hours already. The remaining guards and drivers, along with Hyola and the merchant Trevalo, had stayed behind at the clearing where they had camped last night. They would wait there, praying an adzee didn’t come sniffing around.<...

“How are you here?” Tesyb asked the former mercenary as they clasped their arms in greeting. “It’s quite lucky we met at this spot."

Feroy laughed. “Hardly. This is one of the just two good places to stop on this road—apart from the old Helga’s inn. We left that place a little late today because of a boar attack, but I'm glad we reached this clearing before dark."

Tesyb grinned. ...

MLI Ch 7. The Rangers

***

Roderic, who had been riding nearby, gave the answer this time. "Yeah, the one in the northeast. The outpost is technically located within this barony, but we don't man it. That's the Rangers' task." 

Alden raised his eyebrows. "The Rangers?" 

The guard captain nodded. "The best of the best fighters in the world. Swordsmen, archers, spearmen and pikemen form the bulk of the Rangers' force—each squad led by a knight. All human kingdoms contribu...

MLI Ch 6. Sarnok

They threaded through the market street slowly, the horses’ hooves kicking up little puffs of dust that hung in the sunlight. The village smelled like a place that lived with its hands—leather and wet wool, wood smoke and the sharp, yeasty edge of fresh bread. That smell hit Alden more plainly now than when he’d only glanced out from the manor: it was the scent of people actually working with their hands to survive, not the distant, anonymous smell of a 21st cent...

“That’s a good idea,” Kivamus said to the majordomo. “On the way back, the horses won’t be dragging the weight of the trunks, so they can pull a loaded wagon easily. Let’s assign two wagons here full-time, one for each crew. The workers here will load them with lumber and planks, and when the log mover crews arrive, they’ll unhitch the trunks, attach the wagons behind the log movers, and take them back to the vil...

Tesyb shrugged. "I never thought to ask exactly how much he was willing to pay you, but I'll tell him what you earn here and ask about it next time. But I can still tell you what people earn back home. The rates are obviously lower than those in a big town like Cinran, but our expenses are also lower. Anyway, unskilled laborers and coal miners get eight to ten coppers a day. There's enough work for everyo...

Vusato smiled. "Because of you and your siblings. You may be the heir, but you still don't have any experience of organising the village defense in case a monster attacks while your father is away. It's rare outside the winter, but you never know these days. So he always leaves the captain in the village to manage the defense when he's not here." 

Alden nodded, hiding his laughter. Of course he had no idea where to send swordsmen and where to send bowmen in case of...

Edaroc's voice turned somber. "If he still refuses, then I can only afford to keep our family and the household staff inside the city walls. We simply don't have the gold to pay for the whole village..."

Lidoroc snorted. "Hah... You are still way too soft-hearted! Just like always. I say, let them fend for themselves. They're commoners! Who cares about them as long as no noble blood is shed."

Edaroc glared at his brother again, before he just shook his head.

Table of Contents for 'Lord of the Manor'

Hey everyone.

This is the table of contents for my new story, Isekai'd as a Lord of the Manor (previously named as Manor Lord Isekai). I have made a separate post for it instead of adding the chapter links in the same ToC of FLTL to avoid getting the chapter links of different stories mixed up. The link to this new table of contents will still be available in the original ToC for FLTL, so you can refer to it easily.

“How can a brother try to pimp his sister to a noble...?” Isuha whispered harshly, her eyes already glistening with tears. “I never expected such a thing from you...” She spun and made for the door.

Around half an hour later, Tesyb slipped away toward the market square to meet with his sister. Once the guards and the wagon drivers had started hauling out coal to the warehouse, he had told Trevalo that he needed an hour for a task from Lord Kivamus. That wasn’t exactly a lie; the baron had told him to give his offer to Isuha whenever he came...

Tesyb sat beside Trevalo on the lead wagon, watching the stone walls of Cinran approaching ahead of the caravan. This was the afternoon of the third day since they had left Tiranat, and they were arriving right on time. Last autumn, during those frantic emergency runs with Pydaso, they had pushed the horses hard and managed to reach Cinran within two days. Luckily, none of th...

It only took a moment for Alden's memory to supply the names of those riding in the middle. The silver-haired rider on the left was Baron Edaroc—his newfound father. He wore a polished iron breastplate—possibly even steel—while the rest of his body was covered by leather armor, under a dark cloak to protect against the windchill during his iron mine visit towards the mountains in the north. His beard was cut short,...
