[If the host can really manage to snag those few powerful followers, they'll be able to support themselves.]
"Oh? That makes sense. But what if they don't agree?"
The topic has returned to the beginning: did she rely on deception?
If I can do everything myself, why would I become her follower?
【······】
Can't we just have a normal conversation?
[Host, you must believe in the allure of the king and the realm. Becoming a follower of the king is something many people dream of.]
Even imposters can fool them with just a body of water; the host has almost a complete package of food, clothing, shelter, and transportation. Only a fool wouldn't be happy with that.
“Then I trust your judgment. It’s decided then. I’ll go and pick up the pieces after I see Fang Jia breathe her last!” Fang Yuan replied.
She was thinking about how many houses she owned.
Then I'll have all these guys work as prostitutes for him.
She simply became a hands-off manager, only needing to count the crystal cores and cultivate each day.
Oh, and we can also have them hunt hamsters and kangaroos for her, so her storage bag will be taken care of.
The more I thought about it, the happier I felt, and I even cooked faster.
Soon, one meat dish and four vegetable dishes were served. Fang Yuan thought for a moment and then each took a portion.
I turned around and brought out the snake meat porridge. Finally, I can eat meat today.
Fang Yuan scooped up a bowl of porridge and took a sip; a fresh and fragrant flavor overwhelmed her taste buds.
"Hmm? I didn't expect this snake meat and mushroom porridge to be so delicious."
This meat, imbued with spiritual energy, no longer had a strange taste and tasted better than ordinary meat.
It looks like she'll have to stock up on more meat in the future.
Just then, Wang Hao and the others came downstairs.
Fang Yuan heard the noise and looked up.
All four of them were wearing bathrobes provided in her room.
Wang Hao and his uncle remained calm.
However, Kaga and Yaro felt a little uncomfortable wearing the clothes, and occasionally they would protect their clothes, as if they cherished them.
This scene put Fang Yuan in a great mood; she thought her bathrobe would sell well in the future.
She asked with a smile, "Are you all up? Did you sleep well last night? Do you want breakfast?"
At this moment, she had long forgotten about her earlier struggle with the system over dignity.
She became a landlady who wanted to earn crystal cores.
Forget about being kings or queens, these people are all her gods now!
"Sir, shopkeeper!"
"Sir, shopkeeper!"
Regardless of Fang Yuan's attitude, Wang Hao and Kaga bowed to her respectfully.
"Hello, Your Majesty!" Upon seeing this, Yaro quickly followed suit and bowed as well.
Last night he even suspected he was under a spell and almost offended the Queen.
Wang Jin, who was at the front, quickly put on a smile and bowed to Fang Yuan:
"Hello, shopkeeper. My name is Wang Jin, and I am a Level 5 Evolver. Thank you for saving me last night."
As he looked down, he secretly glared at his nephew.
That brat is definitely trying to make him look foolish.
They didn't even tell him that the person who saved him was a psychic king.
Fortunately, due to his business dealings and transactions over the years, he has developed a calm and composed demeanor.
But he was truly shocked; how many years had it been since a female ruler had appeared on this continent?
"You're welcome. I saved you because I took your nephew's crystal core, and I'm very happy to see you're better."
"By the way, do you want to eat? One level-one crystal core is enough for a day's meals, preferably wood-type." Fang Yuan asked again.
The grand opening promotion is over, and she won't be offering free meals anymore.
Thinking back to last night before bed, I tried to absorb a crystal core, and it felt amazing.
She didn't stop, and absorbed all the wood-type crystal cores.
Fortunately, his superpower is almost at level three.
Knowing that she is advancing faster than others, she urgently needs crystal cores to enhance her superpowers.
Wang Hao quickly replied, "The food you provide is all very good, of course we'll eat it!"
He then took out a level-two wood-type crystal core from his storage bag and respectfully placed it on the square table.
This was compensation given to him by his third uncle this morning.
"Thank you for your patronage!"
Fang Yuan happily accepted the crystal core, then waved to the table next to him.
An identical meal appeared out of nowhere on the table.
It was indeed wise to divide the food beforehand.
They can't get into the kitchen.
As long as she doesn't say anything, these people won't know that she cooked the meal, and her high-class image will be preserved for the time being.
"Thank you, shop owner!"
The four of them then walked over.
Wang Jin and Wang Hao were the first to sit down at the table, while Kaga and Yaro stood behind them.
Wang Jin glanced at Fang Yuan, then waved to the two of them: "Sit down and eat together."
Even a king like him is so down-to-earth. He's not a demanding person, so there's no need for him to show his subservience here.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Thank you, Master!"
Kaga and Yaro didn't stand on ceremony; as soon as Wang Jin spoke, they naturally sat down as well.
They were followers, not slaves, and the two had had many opportunities to eat with Wang Jin during their previous business trips.
As soon as they put down their chopsticks, the four of them were immediately delighted to taste the delicious food.
"This dish is delicious..."
It was better than the food they used to have when they were feasting in the royal city.
Moreover, it seems to contain a faint restorative energy.
"Third Uncle, you've just recovered, eat more."
As Wang Hao spoke, he even put a piece of snake meat on his uncle's plate.
"You can eat it yourself, everyone please don't be shy, the owner's food is very good."
Wang Jin also said something to the group.
He didn't know that Fang Yuan was the only one there, and that the food was prepared by Fang Yuan.
He thought to himself that she truly deserved to be called the Queen of Wood-type Psionic Energy, as even the plants born in her domain possessed healing properties.
"I'm glad you like it, there's still some porridge left!" Fang Yuan was happy to see that her food was well-received.
Then they put the rest of the snake meat porridge on the table for them.
I quickly finished my own meal as well.
After tidying up the table, she took out a tea set.
Then slowly start washing the teaware, and then boil water to brew tea.
This tea set was kept in her luxury suite on the top floor.
Seeing Fang Yuan's actions, Wang Jin also signaled to the others to speed up their eating.
As Fang Yuan brewed the first cup of tea, Wang Jin led Wang Hao to Fang Yuan's side:
"Sir, the owner."
"Please sit down and try my tea."
Fang Yuan gestured for them to sit opposite him and handed each of them a cup of peach blossom tea.
She deliberately brewed tea here to wait for these two people.
"Thank you, shopkeeper."
The two sat down opposite Fang Yuan, looking at the glass of water in front of them with flower petals floating on it.
After exchanging a glance, they each picked up a glass and took a sip.
"This tea has a wonderful aroma; it's truly excellent. Thank you for your hospitality, sir," Wang Jin replied with a smile.
The tea still had a subtle energy in his mouth, which made him feel very comfortable.
"It's just a cup of tea. If you two have any questions or concerns, feel free to ask." Fang Yuan calmly looked at the two of them.
But secretly she hoped the two of them would ask her to buy things.
Wang Jin put down his cup and bowed to Fang Yuan again, saying:
"May we ask which royal city you are from, sir? When we return and inform our patriarch, we would like to present you with another generous gift as a token of our gratitude!"
The gift-giving wasn't for gratitude, but for building relationships.
He wanted to seize the opportunity to be the first to live in her capital city before the new queen began to gather the city's inhabitants.
After all, there seem to be more and more powerful alien beasts in recent years, and everyone's living environment is getting worse and worse.
Only the domain of a king can withstand these threats.
However, very few people have broken through to the King rank, and in recent decades, there has been no news of a new royal city appearing anywhere.
Currently, there are no more than ten royal cities in the human world that are still shrouded in domains.
Some royal cities, whose kings have been dead for many years, are on the verge of collapse due to the weakening of their protective barriers.
