Book 12: Chapter 31


    Its finally over.


    Freya ced the pen in her hand down with a sigh of relief. She had finally finished signing thestmand. The site selection for the factory, the workers, the governing system and my subordinates area grading were finally all confirmed.


    Thanks to the assistance of the former nobles, Freya and I were introduced to all of the trustworthy people. The people were former nobles who were willing to help us and absolutely trustworthy. I arranged for locals and people I trusted to manage things. In doing so, I avoided agitating the people due to ignorance.


    I followed the province, city and vige ssifications to divide the North into ten parts. I divided them up with local specialties, tribe poption and religion as the criteria for one group. However, for Ling Yues sake, I gave the Imperial City a very wide radius so that Ling Yues home could be included as part of it.


    Basically, the new policies, area distribution and poption census were in the midst of being carried out. I didnt intend to dere myself the new King after upying the Imperial Pce. I wanted to wait for the poption census and policies to bepleted before officially dering myself King of the North.


    The North was still a mess. Besides the small poption, everything else was good. We didntck resources or anything of the sort, either. Therge in in the centre wasnt inferior to the ins where food was produced in the South. Furthermore, the North had the terrifying mana-powered machines. The n was for me to first control the factories, and then permit private factory operations once the poption in the North stabilised.


    In essence, we already did what we could for the meantime. We were just waiting for the poption census and for the guardians to inform the people of the new policies and area distributions so that they were mentally prepared. Then, I need to wait for my children to be born. That was about it.


    Mommy Vyvyan prepared names for my children in addition to clothing for them. She told me there was a particr one I wore when I was a kid, and then I watched her hold it up to her nose and sniff it with her eyes blood-red. Boy, I was so scared I didnt even dare to speak.


    Aside from clothing, Mommy Vyvyan also brought powder to mix with drinks. She apparently didnt have much faith in Lucias body. To be fair, Lucias body was small and cute, but not t chested!! I once caught Mommy Vyvyanparing her boobs to Lucias! Come on, man, that had to be unscrupulous y!!


    Lucia was small, not t chested! Vyvyan, who had a body better than humans, was basically a terrifying existence! It shouldnt be considered a valid contest! Lucias body wasnt bad among the elves!


    As for Mommy Elizabeth, she prepared a mountain of stuff and had lots of things transported to the North from Hilles City as if there was no tomorrow. They werent things officials sent to ingratiate themselves with her, but purely things Mommy Elizabeth prepared for the child.


    I really didnt get it. How did Mommy Elizabeth know how my child would be at eighteen years old? How did she manage to have people send everything for my child up to eighteen years of age and even have wedding clothes prepared?


    I felt the things Mommy Vyvyan brought were legitimately things for taking care of childrenpared to the things Mommy Elizabeth prepared. I had the impression Mommy Elizabeth had no idea what taking care of children entailed. Im willing to bet she justmanded thedy-in-waiting, All of you, prepare good things for me! Ill kill you lot if youre one thing short! That mustve been why they brought so many things. Having said that, I was also baffled. I felt there was something I hadnt told her when I saw her, but I couldnt figure out what it was.


    Freya stretched her back out after she finished sorting out all of the documents. With a smile, she said, I really feel as though I can have a long vacation now. Your children will be born in about a month, right, Onii-sama? We can have a one month vacation, but after that, you will need to ascend the throne and give your speech. Be honest, do you still remember the first time we met, Onii-sama?


    Are you talking about the church?


    Freya smiled: No. Let me put it another way. Do you still remember the time we first discussed what sort of monarch you wanted to be? That was the point in time I considered to be my new life. Therefore, that was our first time meeting, Onii-sama. The conclusion we came to that time was that you wanted to be a fair King. Queen Vyvyan is a very benevolent monarch. She is able to forgive others for as long as it was not a serious mistake. Empress Elizabeth, on the other hand, is a very tyrannical Empress. Aggravating her would spill a river of blood. At the time, you said that you wanted to be a fair King. You would also kill, but the people you would kill are those who deserved to die, not the innocent.


    Freya thenughed in a quiet voice before resuming: I initially thought you would lead humanity or the elves as a new King. I never imagined you would obtain your ownnd. Elizabeth and Vyvyan have no prestige here. You are the only one here. You are here on thisnd. That is what makes you a true hero King.


    Freya walked up to me and hugged me around my waist. She buried her head on my chest and quietly said, This ce is your home. Our home. This is the only ce where I will not be discriminated against, so I really cherish this ce. I care about this ce very much. Only here, can I be by Onii-samas side


    I stroked her Freyas head: Youre my sister no matter where you are. Youre my sister I cherish most.


    She checked her surroundings, and then giggled, I never imagined there would be a day, like this. I thought about seeding a nation with you, but never did I imagine I would be able to establish a new nation with you. I am truly very excited. It feels surreal when I look at everything around.


    This is real and this is what you personally built.


    Yes. You are right.


    Freya grabbed hold of my hand. With a smile, she said, The warmth of your hand is so real. This is real. This is reality. I am very happy. I am honestly very happy. Congrattions, Onii-sama, you will soon be true a heroic king. Establish an empire in the North that doesnt pale inparison to Empress Elizabeth as a symbol of your fairness!


    I stroked Freyas small head: Uhm. Ill be fine with you here.


    Freya went with the flow by leaning her head onto my chest. She pressed her hand on my belt and giggled: So, Onii-sama, when can we go to the hot springs at Troy City again? I want to go again. I want to see the flowers, soak in the hot springs I also want Mm Onii-sama, your wives are all now upied You cannoty hands on your moms, either. Last time was not bad, was it?


    Freya


    Come on Come on Onii-sama Ah!!! Dont! Dont! I was joking! I was joking!! Onii-sama, you cant do this here! You cant do this here!! Dont do this! Ah!! Someone will see us! Someone will see us!! Mm Mm Close the door Lock it


    I trust that Freya would be careful when she tried to tease me in the future.


    <em>Teasing me is a very dangerous game.</em>
