"Honey! Wake up!"

Reiner, who was sleeping early in the morning, was woken up by Junice.

Since he set the goal of building a nation, the number of times he slept in has dropped sharply.

Every morning for several days, Junice would find a way to wake Reiner up and report the latest situation about Cannon.

And Nora was used to it. She would not be woken up anymore and slept soundly in Reiner's arms.

"Now the Barnett flag on the city wall has been taken down, leaving only their family flag.

Ai has officially announced his break with the Hero King and is currently giving a speech in the heart of Cannon City.

Reiner rubbed his eyes and gently pulled her into his arms. "What about the other lords who were on good terms with him? Have they made their stance clear?"

"Two lords have expressed their intention to follow Ai and break away from Barnet and seek independence."

"Last time, they said that four lords betrayed Ai, which means there's another lord who's the traitor, right?"

Junice nodded heavily: "Well, the intelligence given by Lelith is this: the Hero King ordered him to temporarily lurk in our formation, and when we let our guard down, he will surprise us and give us a fatal blow.

In addition, the Hero King has reorganized two more legions in the heart of Barnet, totaling about 15,000 warriors, to deal with the threat from the east, that is, us."

Reiner yawned again: "Lelith has flown to someone else's hometown..."

"It's just that, although the country of Barnet doesn't advocate the use of force and has many warriors who have trained their bodies to the extreme, they despise magic. So much so that even when Lalith flew in the sky for several days, they didn't notice it at all.

If it was in Roseno, it is estimated that Lalith would have been shot down by a magician who noticed her as soon as she arrived in the royal capital.

But this is also a good thing. We can fight a war to spread our fame far and wide, letting other countries see that the kingdom of Barnet, known as the third most powerful kingdom on the continent, was easily defeated by us."

"There's no need to be so ostentatious in the early days of the founding of the country. We don't have to completely destroy this country. We can just grab a few pieces of land for development and let them know that we are not easy to mess with." Reiner gently touched Nora who was lying in his arms.

Junice continued, "Right now, Laelis is training the demons, and Paige is training the demihumans. I have to say, they're both quite capable. They know a little bit of everything, even some weird tactics."

Reiner nodded.

Judging from the panel, the intelligence of these two people is S-level after all.

Peggy even had a record of single-handedly killing 25 demi-human guards in the woods.

With them helping with training, Reiner can rest assured.

"You've been busy all morning. Come lie on the bed with me and rest for a while. Your belly is seven months pregnant now, so you must take care of yourself." Reiner put his arm around Junice's neck and gently held her in his arms.

"Oh, you're sniffing me again. It's so itchy, haha." Junice struggled slightly, but she calmed down after being covered with the quilt.

Reiner lowered his head and kissed her, and it took a long time before he pulled away.

Junice secretly reached out to touch Nora's cat ears, then sighed, "They feel so nice and furry. She doesn't like me to touch them normally, and I can only touch them when I get the chance."

"Really? I often see you sneaking around Nora, grabbing her ears whenever you get the chance. It's almost annoying her."

Junice pouted and muttered, "She's just too cute. I love kittens the most."

As soon as the words fell, Noila's ears twitched sensitively, but she had not yet woken up from her sleep.

Junice lowered her voice and said, “Look, how cute it is.

Nora is only so relaxed when she sleeps in your arms. If she sleeps with me normally, she would have woken up long ago if I moved like this."

After that, Junice inched closer and kissed the kitten on the cheek.
