Lord Who Visit Another World

Chapter 82 - Invitation

I take a breath and put my head on Lucina's ŀȧp. Currently, we are in the garden with my mother and sister. It has been a week since the fight against the S-class monster, and I have been busy overseeing all the damage the monster does.

The first one is conquering the Dungeon near the sea. Because the dungeon already exhausted its core to produce as much as the monster it can in the monster wave, a two dozen group of elite hunters and soldiers is enough to destroy the dungeon.

The hunter checks for traps and the soldier is the one that handles the monster inside.

After taking care of the dungeon, I need to order the road to be repaired as the monster decides to destroy it for some reason. There is also the need to repair the farmland across the land. I also need to help the other lord to repair their farmland. Well, it was more of being hired by the other lord as they pay me to do it.

Well, I'm not the one to do it. I'm only sent some people to do it. Even then, I only sent some people to deliver the special fertilizer I created using the Green Magic.

The next thing is the need to rebuild two of the villages that got destroyed by the monster. Lucky for me, there are not many villagers who die from the monster wave.

I snap from my thoughts when I feel someone flick my forehead.

"Don't think about that. You are here to relax, not to overthinking things."

I smile at her and decide to enjoy my time here. I close my eyes and enjoy Lucina patting my head. It has been a while since we have a picnic together. The cold wind coming from the west and the warmth coming from Lucina's body makes it a perfect combo.

"Hey, Lucina?"

"Hmmm?"

"Did I ever tell you how much I love you?"

"Yes, you did, dear husband. You say it every night."

"Then I will say it once again. I love you."

"Love you too."

I raised my head and gave her a quick kiss on her lips. I chuckle a little when I see her blush a little. Even when she has a tomboyish nature, she is still a maiden in the heart. She is shy when I show her affection in public. I guess it was because of the current era tradition.

"Brother!"

I open my eyes and look at Ginerva, waving her hand at me.

"Hello there, Gin Gin. What can I do for you?"

"Can you summon your creature?!?"

"Of course. Which one?"

"The big one!"

I smile at her, get up and take out ten Pokeball from my pocket dimension. I decided to let our pokemon inside their Pokeball a little bit longer. I don't want to be caught off guard not to have an additional creature to help me in a fight like before. Lucky for me, I have a few pokemon inside their Pokeball and not running around inside my pocket dimension.

"Gin Gin, let me introduce you to our companion."

I then begin to introduce Ginerva to our pokemon. After the introduction, she began to play with them. My mother hesitates a little, but she becomes comfortable after a few seconds. My mother decided to stay with Lulu the Absol and groom the Disaster Pokemon with her hand.

I smile at their happy expression and decide that this is what I want in this life. A peaceful life that I can spend with my family.

~The Next Day~

I read all the paperwork on my desk and sign it one by one. Among the paperwork is a report on the construction of the village and the construction of the road. I already permitted to take some gold from the vault to reconstruct the road and the village.

It looks like the damage is more than I thought it would be. The road that connects the Northern Region and the Southern Region is completely destroyed. The reason is that the monster coming from the south is a Giant-type monster like Cyclops and Orc.

I then look at another paper and see that the fort that was just newly built needs to be repaired. While the damage is not too extensive, it still needs to be repaired as there is a hole in the wall.

*Knock Knock*

"Come in."

I look at the door and see Ayas walk inside my office with a stack of paper in his hand. I wince a little when I see the stack of paper. It looks like I cannot leave this room very soon.

"My lord."

"What can I do for you, Ayas?"

"I want to deliver the report about the money we use."

"Place them on the corner of my table."

"Of course."

Ayas then places the paperwork on the corner of the table.

"Anything else?"

"Yes. What will we do about the people that migrate from the south?"

Oh yeah, for some reason, the people in the south of the gate decide to migrate to Sea Dragon City.

"Why did they decide to come here? Do you know?"

"They come here in search of safety, my lord. With the King deciding to gather all the soldiers in the southern region in the capital, many villagers near the Bloody Gate swarmed with monsters. Some of the villagers survive the monster wave and decide to come here because their farmland is destroyed, and with the lord deciding to increase the taxes because of the failure of the crops, they decide to go here."

".... Let them stay here. However, they need to work if they want to eat. Please tell Richard to tell them to join the construction crew to work. The construction crew will be busy from now on. If they do a good job, I will give them a place to live in the Lionheart family farmland."

"Of course, my lord."

"Also, tell Richard to tell the people there to follow the rule. I don't want any criminals like my people. I don't want them to shit in public. We have the public toilet for a reason. Tell them that I will punish them harshly if they cannot follow the rule. I don't want my city to become the capital. Lastly, tell Leonardo to limit the number of people who come here. I don't want them to overpopulated my city."

"Yes, my lord."

"Good, if there is nothing else, you are dismissed."

"Ah! Do I interrupt you?"

"Of course not, my lady. I'm just about to leave. Excuse me."

As Ayas leaves my office, I look at Lucina and smile at her.

"Good afternoon, dear."

"Hmmm~ What can I do for you, dear?"

"There is a letter for you."

"A letter?"

"Yes. It was from the capital city."

I raise my eyebrow. I don't know what the king wants from me, but I can think of a few things he wants. Either he wanted to punish me for disobeying his order to march my soldier to the south as he ordered all troops to go to the capital after all.

"Please give it to me."

"Here you go."

I open up the letter and begin to read it. The more I read the letter, the bigger my frown is. After reading the letter, I give it back to Lucina, who also read it. After reading the letter, she says.

"I don't trust this."

"Me too, dear. Me too."

"He wants to reward us? After what he did, it was most likely a trap."

"But we also cannot discard the chance that he really gave a reward for defeating the S-class monster. It was good for his public image, after all. By doing this, he will get some positive image from the public to cover his questionable decision in the past."

"That is true. The letter also said that all the northern nobles were also invited to the palace to be rewarded for their contribution."

"That means he will do the second one then. He will reward us for defeating the S-class monster."

"I guess we will go to the capital?"

"We don't have many choices. This letter is the official letter of the Royal family. If we disobey the summoning, we will be seen as a disloyal family. Even though we have enough reason not to attend this farce ceremony, I don't want any conflict. Not for now."

"Then, should I write a letter agreeing to attend this ceremony?"

"Yes. While you are doing that, I will also write a letter to the other lord saying that I will go to this ceremony and ask them if they want to attend or not. When the ceremony is happening?"

"In… One month from now"

"Then we need to prepare."

He wants to show the world that he is a benevolent king, huh? Then I will show him that I'm not someone that will obey all his orders.. Let's see how he handles a pack of lions coming to his den.
