The desolate land has a large territory, but as early as a hundred years ago, seventy percent of the land was swallowed up by demonic energy, and that place borders the Demon Realm.
That place is full of lords. Every time someone goes there, he dies. Up to now, there has been no lord there for three years.
The king hardly collected any taxes from there. After all, the people there were too poor and even had trouble getting enough food and clothing, so there was no point in talking about taxes.
And because it borders the Demon Realm, once the monsters break out, the people there will be the first to be killed.
Under such terrible circumstances, the wasteland became a lawless area.
The great magician frowned. Although he didn't like the woman very much, he was the one who summoned her. It was really unfair to her to be abandoned in such a place just because she had no magical elements.
"Your Majesty, she is a woman who knows nothing. Even if you give her a territory, she will..."
The great magician was interrupted by Fu Mingcheng halfway through his speech.
"Your Majesty, I believe that the Desolate Land is the best choice for her."
Fu Mingcheng sneered: "After all, she doesn't know anything. It's time for her to learn how to behave properly."
The king breathed a sigh of relief. Since the brave man had said so, he stopped hesitating and sighed, pretending to be worried but actually secretly happy: "Well... then it's settled."
………………
The next day, Chi Sui, who was still having a good sleep, was woken up by the maid.
She looked at the intricately patterned golden robe with a confused look on her face: "This..."
"Here are your clothes, Count."
Chi Sui, wearing a golden robe, casually tied his hair up.
Looking at the unusually shiny ruby crown on her head, she couldn't help but say, "Ah~~I am the queen~~"
After showing off for a while, Chi Sui walked towards the palace with heavy steps.
It wasn't that she was feeling heavy, but that the dress had so many diamonds on it and the crown on her head was also very heavy.
The diamond necklace on her neck covers her entire chest, which is really rich and beautiful.
Every time Chi Sui walked a distance, she would hold on to a pillar to rest, which made the maid look at her with even more pity.
Poor girl, her health is so poor. If she goes to a desolate place, I don’t know if she can survive for three months.
"齁...齁..."
The king and his ministers, who had been waiting in the palace for a long time, heard the man's voice before seeing him.
"snore……"
A slender figure walked in, holding on to the wall along the way.
The king quickly put on a smiling face and said, "Lady Chi Sui, you are finally here."
Chi Sui's face was pale. Who could tell her why she had to walk three kilometers to get to the palace?
"Hello... hello... sorry to have kept you... hmm... waiting for so long..."
Ruan Ruan was wearing a white dress, her flaxen hair was tied behind her head with a piece of silk, and a light golden gem hung on her forehead.
At this moment, she was looking at Chi Sui quietly.
Fu Mingcheng felt ashamed when he saw Chi Sui gasping for breath.
She has been like this since she was a child, doing whatever she wants, as if she never cares about dignity and manners.
Seeing Chi Sui breathing heavily, the great magician sighed softly and asked, "Did the lady read the parchment scroll?"
Chi Sui suddenly raised his head: "The parchment scroll? I saw it, but..."
"I don't understand... ouch..."
When the maid gave her the skirt, she did take out a roll of delicate sheepskin in a silver box.
It was filled with words that looked like English, but they were not English. Chi Sui pondered over it for a long time but couldn't understand it.
"can't read?"
The ministers discussed in a low voice in surprise.
Chi Sui was puzzled. Was it strange that she couldn't understand the local language? She wasn't from this world, so of course she couldn't understand it.
The great magician was stunned, then frowned. How could that be?
According to the rules of the past few hundred years, every brave warrior and saint summoned to this world, after taking the Holy Stone test, can establish a connection with this world and instantly master the common language.
Although Chi Sui did not test out the magical elements, she had indeed touched the holy stone. How could she not have mastered the common language?
Seeing the great magician's increasingly puzzled expression, Ruan Ruan thought to herself that something was wrong and looked at Chi Sui and asked, "Could it be that... Sister Chi doesn't have any magical elements?"
Everyone was silent.
Indeed, Chi Sui's situation is the first in hundreds of years.
The great magician frowned. This was the only explanation.
The king sighed and said, "It is like this, Chi Sui, I will make you the first countess of the Kingdom of Cassio."
"From now on, you will own the largest fiefdom in the Kingdom of Cassio: the Desolate... cough... Land of Hope!"
Chi Sui's eyes widened: "Me? Countess? Territory?"
Fu Mingcheng sneered: "Yes, the king also exempted your fiefdom from taxes for three years."
"Within the territory, except for war, all other matters are decided by you with full authority. The Royal City will not interfere."
The wise man also smiled and said, "Lady, in three days, the great magician will activate the teleportation magic to send you and the followers we carefully selected for you to the fiefdom."
Chi Sui frowned, feeling that something was not right. However, it was obvious that the king had made up his mind. Even if she said she disagreed, it would probably be difficult for her to...
Thinking of this, Chi Sui nodded: "Thank you, King, but..."
"I have a request, please consider it, King."
The king's fat face hardened. "Please speak."
“I need some start-up capital…”
"Uh...it's just...currency."
The king's mouth twitched.
The wise man knew that the king was stingy, but it was best to get rid of Chi Sui for the time being, so he tugged at the king's robe.
Chi Sui looked at the king with a stiff smile for three minutes before nodding: "Give the lady one thousand... nine hundred... six..."
The king kept changing the number, and the ministers below twitched their lips. The great magician shook his head helplessly: "Lady, the king means to grant you a thousand gold coins to accompany you to the territory."
The king laughed stiffly for three minutes and then said, "Ha...ha...yes...it's one thousand silvers..."
The Grand Magician interrupted: "One thousand gold coins."
King: "Gold coins?"
The wise man nodded: "Yes, gold coins."
King: "Haha...gold coins..."
Chi Sui: ………
Finally, the maid behind Chi Sui, holding a box of gold coins, set out on the journey back to the bedroom with her.
Chi Sui: ………Oh my god, we still have to walk three kilometers back!
"Why is there no carriage in such a huge palace?! Ouch..."
Chi Sui collapsed and shouted.
The maid holding a heavy box of gold coins said: "My Lady, if the palace uses carriages, the horse manure will be difficult to deal with."
Chi Sui: …reality is reality…the white horse and pumpkin carriage in the fairy tale is actually like this in real life: the prince and princess express their love to each other in the carriage, while the white horse pulling the carriage poops…
"Hmm...Ellie...when...will...I...hmm...come..."
Maid Ellie held the large box and sighed, "It's almost there, Lady."
Finally, after walking three kilometers, the baroness finally returned to the bedroom where she had lived before.
Then I fell asleep.
Ellie put the box at the end of the bed, sighed, and went out.
