Pseudo-Villaines

Baron Jean De Ruhr's

Prince Hans returned empty-handed. And so do his followers. In this gamble, the Dublin kingdom has lost. He almost lost everything.

His prestige in the eyes of other kingdoms in the western part of the Akkadian continent has been destroyed. Economy hurt. His army was also nearly annihilated. Really, a wasted bet.

Prince Hans might get his father's punishment. In other words, the king. The nobles also lost their power. Many of their knights left but did not return. The money they had spent was simply wasted, without ever getting into their pockets again.

The rich merchants who participated in the war were also destroyed. The money they spent to finance the war was not small. But then again, the investment they spent was not so profitable. They are in huge debt.

Apart from the tempest, there is one person who actually gets the greatest benefit. And we know who it is.

When Prince Hans decides to return to the kingdom of Dublin while swallowing a bitter pill of defeat, a letter comes to Jean.

The king forbade him to retreat. Instead, Jean was asked to defend three villages that had fallen into his hands and build fortifications there. The King of Dublin has not given up on conquering the Kingdom of Bucharest and the kingdom of Vilnius.

Jean immediately executed the king's order. He sent a letter to Charlotte who was in Saint Georgia City to deliver various materials needed to build the fortification. All the finest materials were mined from the Ural Mountains in the north of the Dublin kingdom.

He also combined the three villages under his control into a medium-sized city. To ensure that food stocks were maintained as the population grew, Jean decided to make the surrounding forest a new farmland.

Soon, Jean gained the title of Baron with the name De Ruhr in tow. He was the only Baron who had a self-managed territory, in contrast to the other Barons and Viscounts. Jean also became the youngest noble in the kingdom of Dublin.

But there is no time to celebrate. He was not so interested in the peerage title he had just obtained.

Jean preferred to consolidate his power. He obtained permission to build his own army and govern his new territory at will as long as Jean paid tribute to the king.

Of course it brings envy and envy from other nobles. What right did Jean have to get the title of Baron? Why do lowly people seem to be able to get what they don't get?

A rift arose between the nobles and the royal family. Little by little, the rift spread and widened, the conflict between the two sides was no longer inevitable.

Despite the conflict, Jean doesn't really care. He will use every conflict to instill his influence, use all the cards at his disposal to achieve his goal, and destroy all obstacles that stand in his way.

First was the kingdom of Dublin, then the kingdom of Bucharest and the kingdom of Vilnius, while the next target was the western part of the Akkadian continent.

With this, began Jean's debut as a nobleman, more precisely Baron Jean De Ruhr, who would carry his name spread throughout the western part of the Akkadian continent.
