After Ron left the consulate building, Nika immediately began to consider her own plans...
Three days later, a document appeared in Ron's lord's study.
This is Nika's newly introduced improvement to the territory system...
Ron opened the document and began to read it idly: the territory held a steward's meeting every three months to decide on the use of the magic crystal quota for the next quarter, at which time new laws would be introduced and old laws would be improved...
In addition to this territory management meeting, Nika also submitted documents detailing the latest developments in the territory.
The high-end house with a terrace where magic crystal cars can be parked, without stairs, sold out unexpectedly. There were too many people, so the head steward approved another expansion of the new house and increased the production capacity of magic crystal cars.
The territory's research and development department has recently recruited several high-level mages from the Carlo Magic Empire. Although they are not grand mages but rather high-level elementalists, they are quite knowledgeable about magical artifacts such as magic carpets, and their skills have been further enhanced by the existing research team.
A new type of magic carpet has appeared in Sandy Lane.
The new magic carpet has multiple dedicated slots for storing magic crystals, and the distance it can travel in short flights will also be longer.
The initial production date for the Sandy Magic Carpet is... the fourth of the following month.
On the first of the following month, Nika decided to convene the first Territory Management Council meeting.
Sixty percent of the net income from all territories, in the form of magic crystals, must be recorded. These magic crystals must be used wisely; everyone should contribute their ideas…
...
...
The document contained as much information as ever.
It's always better to have your own people in charge!
Sandy's governance system is so well-developed that someone has come to consider things for Ron.
Ron's task was simple: after reviewing the key points of the thick document, he would issue encouraging comments.
"My dear Steward Nika, the recent development of the territory and your governance have been excellent. I, the lord, am truly grateful to have a steward like Nika..."
Various words of praise followed, and since Ron didn't need to write them down, Rita quickly scribbled them down beside her. (。＿ 。) ?＿
The angels are now quite skilled, and Ron isn't worried about how fast they'll go.
In fact, given the abilities of angels, writing some words is not as difficult as personally casting a top-level divine spell!
Even if there were any unforeseen circumstances and there wasn't time to write it down, Angel Rita could easily recall Ron's words and actions over a period of time.
The next day, you can copy the same content and do it exactly the same way.
Ron saw that Rita had finished writing the instructions, and without saying anything else, Vivian picked up the thick document and handed it to the guard outside the courtyard.
The guards outside the courtyard are a bit far from the study, so I'm sorry to trouble Vivian. I think it would be better to streamline the reports and documents at the consulate and review the key points at once.
He acted on his thoughts immediately. When he first took office as lord, Ron was still thinking of just going through the motions. The reports from his subordinates were mostly detailed, and Ron would only read the key points...
Now that 60% of the territory's magic crystal revenue and some legislative power can be liberalized, there's no need to pretend anymore.
Ron then had Rita write down the requirements for future reports, and in doing so, he also finalized the loyalty points he had prepared a few days earlier.
In other words, a few sentences were added: from now on, resolutions of the territory management council can be implemented first, and a report can be submitted after the effects are observed. In addition, new laws that are too important will be implemented first in pilot areas...
Ron Sandy's territory doesn't seem that big, so this pilot program doesn't seem necessary!
"Fine," Ron told Rita to add, "considering the pilot program for the new law, we don't necessarily need to go through the pilot phase for now."
This time, to avoid Vivian having to make the trip again.
After Vivian returned, Ron said, "Let's go for a walk."
As he left, he also handed the lord's decree to the guards at the lord's manor.
If we're going out, where are we going to go for a stroll?
...
And so the days passed by.
The month is coming to an end, and tomorrow is the first Sandy Territory Council meeting, which is also the day for the quarterly bonuses for the months of January, April, July, and October to be tallied and distributed.
Several days have passed since Ron proposed the latest territory pay reform, and tomorrow, April 1st, will be the day Ron stipulated.
Nika will also be holding a territory management meeting tomorrow, and just the day before, a message reached Sandy Territory, and even the ordinary people of Sandy Territory know about it.
'The Carlo Magic Empire embarks on an imperial expedition to defeat the demons of the Vita Continent and protect our world…'
The official documents of the Carlo Magic Empire were also sent to the capital of the Gil Kingdom a few days ago. These official documents are not like news from the public; official documents often have an ancient, ceremonial tone.
King Gil looked at the crumpled contents of the document from the Carlo Magic Empire, and the old king knew all too well that war was coming.
The Carlo Magic Empire is recruiting troops and seeking aid from all kingdom-level powers across the entire Oran continent. These aids can be in the form of soldiers or magic crystals, and there are various other requests.
The top leaders of the kingdoms certainly knew the key to this battle.
This battle came a little late, probably because there are gods in the world! Most kings only hoped for the gods, but the Carlo Magic Empire was the first to step forward.
It was decades of preparation.
From a strategic perspective, we must not allow a continent in the Abyss to be used as a training ground for troops; otherwise, it is very likely that in the next year of catastrophe, the hundred races will not survive until the appearance of the divine beings.
The initial stage of the dimensional abyss transformation process is the dimensional law storm.
It is a process of destruction and then construction, but it is the side of the abyss that wants to destroy and then construct.
The effects of the Abyss Laws system colliding with the ancient world are similar, and the initial stage of the dimensional storm is when it is most suppressive to those who are proficient in the cultivation of laws.
At this point, even the gods could not make their appearance, and even the demigods were suppressed to the point where they could only use their legendary-level strength.
Unlike the current Vita Continent, where suppression is a focused, area-of-effect attack, the suppression effect there is much stronger, to the point that even legends can only use master-level abilities.
During the initial stage of the dimensional storm's catastrophic first year, there was global suppression. The relationship between points and surfaces meant that the suppression effect of the law system was somewhat reduced, and demigods could use legendary-level abilities.
After the later stages, the world will gradually return to the suppression of power at most demigod level. Demigods are collectively called demon gods in the Demon Abyss, and a decisive war will usually follow.
If the ancient world cannot survive this initial stage, then in order to prepare for the arrival of the next stage, the Abyss will spend hundreds of years laying out a net in the ancient world, waiting for the possible arrival of the gods.
There is talk of magic circles, and the magic of the Abyss is even more intricate, taking hundreds of years to set up. The gods are unwilling to abandon the world of Gus, and the enemy has spent hundreds of years preparing a backup plan...
How can we increase our chances of winning?
Conversely, the ancient world of Gus had enough time to prepare for the battlefield, but overall it still lost, only managing to save the continent of Oran. The continent of Vita entered the process of abyssification. The continent of Oran really cannot afford to lose again, otherwise the ancestral planet of the gods of the ancient world will be completely destroyed, and the abyssification will accelerate throughout the entire dimension.
The lifespan of a dimension can be considered similar to that of a star. Even if the origin star of the gods were to fall, the final abyss transformation would still take tens of thousands of years to complete...
We must win this battle!
This is what King Gil sees at present.
Based on the distance, a few days later, which was the day before April 1st, the official documents from the Carlo Magic Empire arrived at Ron's place.
Ron's small Sandy Territory is actually being considered a kingdom by the Carol Magic Empire. The Carol Magic Queen really thinks highly of Ron.
Ron didn't care about the feelings of the current inhabitants of his territory. After reading through the documents of the Carlo Magic Empire, Ron let out a long sigh...
Dimensional war, a battle for resources and survival, nothing else.
After a while, Ron was met with a sharp gaze: Fight, then!
Anyway, Ron is only in charge of logistics. He's only a high-level magic swordsman, not even a master swordsman, so he has no choice but to do this.
Ron ignored the public's reaction, but the people in each territory were in an uproar.
The general public is not very aware of the overall global disadvantages. The people of the world of Gus only know that when war comes, they will calm down as soon as they hear that it is not their own country's war.
Go to war in unfamiliar places?
War equals military merit, and military merit equals nobility.
The noble class of most hereditary territories on the continent originated from the lives of most noble ancestors who fought for them. Only nobles who achieved military merit could be granted hereditary territories. This was the default rule for most kingdoms.
Of course, there are many exceptions, such as when an individual is too powerful and has to be granted hereditary lands to win them over, or when a king has too many daughters or sons and has to be granted dukedoms or marquises, etc.
Exceptions are things that commoners can hardly hope for; to rise to the ranks of nobility, military merit is essential...
The first to offer military merit and noble status was the Carlo Magic Empire. Those who earned a certain amount of military merit would be granted a hereditary noble title with land, which was definitely not the lowly knights and nobles of peacetime.
Following closely behind, the kingdom-level powers that had received the invitation to reinforcements also offered military merit and nobles as bait. There was no other way; the Carlo Magic Empire couldn't afford to take all the talented people who could earn military merit. It would be too unbalanced, and it was hard to guarantee that one of the Carlo Magic Empire's emperors wouldn't want to unify the continent.
Each kingdom made its own promises to its meritorious nobles.
These official announcements caused an uproar among elementalists!
To secure wealth and honor for future generations, right now, isn't the Demon Race the only option? The elementalists don't seem afraid; many of them have been fighting monsters for years, risking their lives just like everyone else. This time, maybe they can fight their way back to a noble status.
Because it was not a war fought by their own people, the martial spirit among the common people actually revived in the early stages of the expedition, with even ordinary people who were not elementalists secretly encouraging their descendants.
That's impressive!
Nobles, commoners, and military nobles.
