Loser System and Berserker Me Chapter 31: Even More Ridiculous

“Ah?” The military commanders stared at Pasha Callerga incredulously as if they couldn’t believe that he had just suggested such a thing.

2. All villages, cities, and fortresses on the Thrace Plains that are in Constantinope’s vicinity will be ceded to Romie.
