Chapter 276.1. The Boss Mii-chan

“Hmm… it seems like our harassment operation is going well.”

Her glamorous ash-gray hair was half-up, and her ice-blue eyes outshone even the finest gems.

Mii-chan, a 1st-year middle school student, proudly representing Takano County, one of the 36 high-ranking noble families, seemed to have grown recently.

I waved her tiny limbs. I think I’ve grown. My hair has grown a few centimeters. I’m planning to get some heavy armor soon.

Mii-chan read holographic data floating in the air and sniffed proudly.

Several other windows were open, displaying a few companions.

[Everything is going well according to the President’s instructions, yes. Currently, Yggdrasil Island is suffering from a shortage of supplies, yes.]

[As reported by Yashibu, we are currently unable to perform maintenance on magic armor, and it appears that the production of magical tools is also impossible, Your Excellency.]

A slender-looking man reported while wiping his forehead with a handkerchief. Next to him, Euno, the leader of the Heroic Spirits displayed in another window, provided precise figures.

.

“Magic ores and gems have also been stopped. The flow of supplies has been reduced to less than 10% of what it used to be. Hmm… Yggdrasil is finally weakening, isn’t it?”

Sitting on the plush sofa in her room, Mii-chan looked satisfied.

Since acquiring control of the Washizu family’s shipping business, I have been quietly harassing Yggdrasil.

At first, I just stopped some magical supply materials and reduced ferry services. I continued to decrease them gradually, and by the time the enemy noticed, the supplies had dried up.

Because it was an artificial island, I used the lack of regular ferries to their advantage.

Previously, they had maintained their ferry services through political connections with politicians who were healed by the healing power of the cult leader, Skadi. However, by bringing those politicians to our side, Takano County, which controlled shipping, could reduce the number of ferry services.

Previously, they had operated ferry services personally as an excuse for the lack of regular services, engaging in smuggling, illegal entry, and exit, and doing as they pleased.

In the original work, Yggdrasil was able to carry out its activities as the secret society Nidhogg due to this setting. But strategically, it was more effective to crush them from these inconspicuous aspects.

It’s like an economic blockade. It might be slightly different. Mii-chan and her group now managed the ferry services. While motorboats and helicopters can transport supplies, they can’t carry them in large quantities. Probably only high-ranking members can get their hands on that amount.

[Excellent work, Your Excellency. We’ve had some perceptive hired magicians fleeing from the enemy organization. We’ve made contact with a few of these magicians and are in the process of verifying the information.]

[As the President has said, they’re in name only as advanced believers. Many of the security magicians are hired for money. When we flashed some bills, they spilled everything, yes.]

[We secretly spread rumors about Takano County’s generosity with money. Yggdrasil will continue to weaken in the future.]

With a look of admiration in her sharp eyes, Euno continued with the report, and Yashibu, with a cheeky smile, revealed the amount of money spent.

The amount was in the billions of yen, but compared to the results, it was a small price to pay.

[Lowering the strength of Yggdrasil through economic disruption is something only the young lady like you would think of. I almost feel sorry for the enemy.]

Fright-oneesan looks with dismay, but Mii-chan finds fighting troublesome.

In games, it’s a common scenario to encounter hired magicians in dungeons, and if you have abundant funds, you can eliminate such enemies beforehand.

[As expected of Your Excellency, that’s correct. They’re just people who we can buy with money. While the outcome is determined before the battle even begins, we are practicing exactly that. This Euno is truly impressed by you.]

[That’s right, yes. The Intelligence Department can achieve excellent results when given ample budget, but I think only the President would allocate such a budget, yes.]

Mii-chan was slightly taken aback by the two’s excessive loyalty to her. In any case, if Yggdrasil Island weakened, we might be able to make our move. A localized volcanic eruption could occur, causing it to sink.

[Then there are the genuine believers. Religion is powerful. Even if they starve to death, they’ll protect the island.]

“I know. History speaks for itself. That’s why we’re not completely blockading the island. But we’re allowing them to transport a minimum amount of goods.”

Frigg-oneesan is right. Even in my previous life, it has been proven that those who believe in religion are strong.

Like the Ishiyama Honganji Temple that Sakuma couldn’t bring down, or the Amakusa Shiro Rebellion. Their hearts are not frightened because they have a strong pillar called God.

“Let’s continue the blockade. And let’s think about how to deal with the believers. Hmm, it would be good if there’s an opportunity to make them lose faith.”

[In novels and such, there’s often the idea of exposing the top as corrupt and making it a scandal for everyone to see. It’s a cliché, and you should stop expecting it.]

“So, revealing that the Pope is corrupt and that the believers are just ducks won’t work, huh?”

Imitating a duck with a quack-quack and flapping her hands, the cute Mii-chan replied with a seductive smile. Frigg-oneesan seductively nodded.

[Believers don’t believe in the Pope. They believe in the doctrine and God. Even if you condemn the Pope, they won’t lose their faith.]
