THE WORLD DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM

chapter 86's

Evan ordered his men as they prepared to leave in a hurry, “We've been quite humiliated in this shitty place, we'll be leaving soon.”

At the end of the conclusion, everyone in the city cheered including the slaves and commoners alike. The cheers are performed by the Slaves in the most extravagant manner as these events remove the knots tied in their hearts and minds for a long time. 

John smiled widely after watching this show, however, it was not the same for all the officials. 

Many officials have different thoughts, This includes Tornwall who has mixed thoughts, ‘We made too many enemies and that too in a short time. I guess this is what I would have thought if I had never lived the life of a slave. But after becoming a slave I guess I now have a different opinion on John ‘'s decision

Witnessing this, Vlad thought and conveyed his thoughts to Diana, “So this is the reason, why he is against the duke, it seems that he prefers to strengthen his long-term goals rather than short-term gains. A very wise choice by him.”

Diana was perplexed when she asked, “Why do you think, practically seen, isn't she just making enemies from Duke Fjord?” 

Vlad pointed towards the people who were cheering and commenting, “You saw all those people celebrating? At some point, they will become John's greatest strength and asset. Why do you think your father treats his people better than all other domains?”

Diana spoke when she heard him, “Well, I thought it was her nature attached to father.” 

Vlad smiled as he asked, “Do you know why the royal family hates our guts?” 

Diana said in a clear tone, “Yes, we are strong and we have a long history where we oppose them a lot, so that's one of the reasons why they hate us.”

Vlad explained, “Where do you think our power comes from? It's from ordinary people, our people don't sell us easily under pressure, it's harder to cause civil unrest by raising tax issues. So there are many factors. It's good that the elders understand when it comes to the internal interests of our family yet they are still nagging when it comes to lowering taxes. Well, let's go there, they've been waiting for us. So you get the gist of why he's prioritizing long-term goals? ” 

Diana nodded in agreement as she gestured to Maurice, “Oke, come on, Maurice, we head to the square, tell our people.” 

Vlad and Diana arrived at the square where all the officials were gathered in front of the Hope's restaurant, 

Dearil comes and salutes Vlad as he begins to give his report,

Vlad came to Dearil when he flicked his forehead with his finger and said, “I heard you previously enjoyed the show when this happened.”

Dearil frustratedly thought as he muttered, “My neighbor it sure makes me angry, I will make sure to make it work twice than usual. As for that incident, even if I do something, it will increase to this level because Noble Evan already knows Martha, then I think why not let the fire burn and see the show. ”

Vlad nodded as he spoke seriously, “Oke, enough of this boring report, now I want you to do an urgent mission. As you probably already know, it was to tail Evan and his men, you had to report his whereabouts and all the aristocrats he met, he said, immediately let me know if he made contact with Duke Blackwolf from the west. That guy actually funded a lot of pirates to attack our current fleet. 

Recently he even tried to plow our caravan towards the Fire-ravine kingdom. It seemed like he was very annoyed with this high-quality soap. ”

Meanwhile, Glenn and Prague had other thoughts when they saw the whole scene from the sidelines, Glenn revealed his thoughts to Prague, “He is quite impressive and different from what I heard in the rumors. From this incident, I can at least hope for him to protect us if the Imperial academy tries to target us in the future. ” 

Prague touched his chin and added,” Hmm ... somewhat different from a practical point of view, he should have handed the slave over instead of offending Duke Evan. Because the profit may not outweigh the loss. However, I'm not sure. If I'm right because there are many factors I don't know that Baron John might consider. “

Glenn smiled, “Isn't that good? Since that person is willing to protect a slave, I have no doubt he is a man who will protect all his people. I was always worried that he would not give us up if he was involved with something big in the future. ” 

Glenn pointed towards Diana as he asked,” Hey Prague, isn't that the famous princess of the Fire Ravine kingdom? “

Prague nodded and confirmed, “Ya, from what I heard, He has just moved here recently because he likes the City and is most happy with the food here. From the rumors, I heard that he even made various deals with Baron John and that was also one of the reasons where his support came from. The man next to him was the right-hand man of the Bluesea Duke, Vlad. Currently, he works as his bodyguard. It was from the rumors that the man had quite a lot of authority in the Bluesea house and was quite frightening when he dealt with the matter in his own hands. ”

Vlad met John when he reached the square, “Unexpectedly such an incident happened with Jake and his family today. Well, some things are meant to be like them, like them, The only advice I can give you is that you have to be careful about that port city because the Baron is a sissy when someone stronger puts him under pressure, You should immediately start planning to raid that port city or claim a forested area north of Port city so that you can have access to the sea and trade to the south does not stop or become more expensive because of all the taxes you'll pay for crossing the land. As for Jake, he's fine already and will recover soon. I hope this incident creates a lot of waves in Aelius . “

John smiled mysteriously and shrugged, “Well, you can't expect me to let go of my men, right? No one in the future would believe me if I even gave up on my first knight. As for those waves I already have a solution for those waves. Have you been following him? From what I know he will try to make a deal with many nobles but the only obstacle is his brothers. ” 

Vlad nodded,” Well, don't worry, They are already being stalked by Dearil. There is good and bad news. We'll talk about it later. You have to start making that Ballista early just to be safe. ” 

John nodded and gave a look of understanding,” Okay, we'll talk later. We have to prepare from now on. ” 

Vlad and Diana left because they were also heading to make preparations on their own,

John turned to Taylor when he gave the order immediately, “Bring Tornwall and Jake to my room after he recovered. We will have an important discussion at this meeting. Be sure to let them know in advance.”
