THE WORLD DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM

the chapter 169

Diana asked Vlad with an anxious face, “What is written in the letter? And is there any word from Dad?” 

Vlad nodded and spoke, “It looks like Prince Chad Fireabys was able to convince many nobles to fight us. This is only exacerbated by our monopoly on the Soap and Paper trade. The King himself is quite wary due to the purchase of our Ballista and has stationed his army units near our western border under the pretext of infrastructure protection and road safety due to the robbers planted by them on the road to clean up while your father sent me a secret letter not to go home because it seems the minister may be doing funny business to jeopardize our relationship with John. However, I think I should go in the end and make sure your father is safe. But that's not now. “

Diana smiled and asked, “You read the newspaper, right? What did you take from John's previous declaration?” 

Vlad thought for a moment, “Witnessing his courage, I became nostalgic and remembered my youth. I think this is also one of the reasons why most empires hate guts. However, I think John is crazier and braver than my previous self. But if he has some big plans then he's probably the most cunning person I've ever known. He would even defeat the demons in that case. You see I can't make predictions on him because he is someone who will bring something new out of the box like last time when he introduced a balista. “

Diana smiled as she heard him and spoke, “Well, in that case, you were right when you said she was a very cunning person, You know, you are a very cunning person, You just missed the last meeting when you came out and there's a new secret weapon being developed by John. John asked me to keep it a secret and just to tell you. Even my father. Whaddya think? ” 

Vlad thought and agreed, “Hmm .. I guess he's planning something big and he doesn't want our ministers to know it. Okay, we're going to play along with her acting because it seems more interesting. Previous achievements in the east sea made me more hopeful. In the meantime, tell me about the new weapon introduced. ”

Vlad was shocked after hearing about the details of the Cannon.

He remembers, ‘If they betray me. I will only make weapons that are more lethal and thousands of times more destructive than they are today. ‘ 

With a surprised face, Vlad thought,’ Yes God, it seems like he had planned to make this weapon from the beginning. ‘

Vlad slapped his forehead and spoke with a smile after he heard about the Cannons, “It looks like he managed to make everyone in the arena play this continent. Looks like he'll succeed in building a kingdom.” 

Diana could not help but understand as Vlad muttered, “What are you saying, Vlad?” 

Vlad shook his head and said, “Nothing, you won't understand in one sentence. I'll explain it to you later. So, tell me other things what you noticed recently and the new inventions that were built in this city. Recently I have been busy coaching Jake and Georgio, ”

Diana thought about clock tower,” Yes, there are many things. I think we'll need all day if you plan to explore all the new discoveries. Take that clock tower, for example, let's go there. “

Vlad nodded and headed with Diana,

Chad, the Demon prince in the Imperial palace in the Fire-gulf kingdom. 

A Chadian subordinate handed over the report, “Master, you can see the current wave report in Aelius Kingdom. I think this will open pandora's box for the whole region.”

“True, this Count seems very interesting and cunning at the same time.” 

“Why did you say it was Milord?” 

“Seeing the history of his decision then it can be seen that most of his movements are counted, whether it is buying Archer's slaves or buying that border town. At the same time he had handed the ballad technology to the royal family but he still had not given up the printing press technology and he finally started using it. My instinct tells me that he is luring all the players to play his game. From an outsider's point of view, he looked carefree and did what he wanted to do. After all, the current situation was extremely grim after witnessing the strength of the ballistas in the ocean. What was the reaction of the dwarves? “

The subordinate spoke, “No matter it seems they are waiting for something big to happen.” 

Subordinate read the report, “It looks like he will stay in the city and from my report he is quite close to that number and his friends. This time he might be affected due to the upcoming war. As for the Bluesea family, they had already started arming themselves with new ballistas after we deployed an army unit under the same pretext to finish off the bandits near their border. However, the ministers there had summoned that person, Vlad. If he doesn't come then we can use Bluesea's brother Draco to create internal conflict at Bluesea's home. It will be an opportunity for us to divide that family. “

Chad nodded and spoke, “Oke, it will be a good opportunity for us, I just hope Diana returns safely as the city will be the eye of the storm. Damn it, if he doesn't get close to Diana we can be great friends. This was also one of the reasons why I had not met before when I visited the Kingdom of Aelius. “

The subordinate had a puzzled face and asked, “Why do you say so, sir? Is he really good?”

we'll keep staring at him and the Dwarves as they move around unorthodox these days. “

Meanwhile Henry was in the southern Domain Capital, the Iron Rainforest. Inside a pub he was here to gather information about political events. 

He called the Bartender and ordered a beer, “Special Wheat Beers.” 

The bartender smiled as he understood and asked, “What kind of special beer do you want?” 

Henry is accustomed to the routine and goes straight to the point, “Hmm .. Which is related to the political events of the Kingdom of Aelius. However, I want to focus on Duke Fjord and Duke Rose’s Domain.” 

The bartender took out a newspaper and handed it to Henry with some other information relating to the rulers of the Fjords domain. 

I think this can answer your question. He handed over 2 papers to her.

Henry was quite surprised when he saw these newspapers in John's domain before leaving. 

He read one of the outstanding newspapers and got most of his information. 

He spoke after reading, “You are quite sharp in realizing the value of this newspaper and use it to your advantage.” 

The bartender smiled as he gave Henry his beer and said, “You flattered me, Dewa.” 

Henry smiled as he drank Beer, “So, what do you think of the last battle of Fjords and Johns?”

The bartender spoke without hesitation, “The damage is complete as most of the Fjord fleet is underwater at the moment. I guess the ballads were game-changers and hence this was also one of the reasons why Duke attacked them as this affected their personal interest in the ocean. As for Duke Fjord, The one who is so ruthless as to be so honest, he will use and dispose of anyone who is under him is what I deduce, whether it be his subordinates or his own son. He was quite good at using his own son's death to his own advantage. ” 

Henry smiled and continued to ask,” What about Count John? “

if the northern border town and Lord John can survive then I plan to move there because most of my colleagues earn enough money to do business there. “

Henry nodded as he took his opinion, “Oke, I got most of his information, you can go now.”

Henry murmured as he read about Duke Rose's trip south, “It looks like Duke Fjord is traveling right now, maybe I should meet him later and try hunting bastard Sebastian or Darius for now. It would be a good blow to that trash. I guess I need to travel to Laguna city. Before that, I need to get a good disguise or I will be identified too easily.”
