"Remove the martial law of the entire city. The original prefect, Cadet, worked day and night for Gomir City. He died of overwork yesterday.”
"Order all officials to report to the territory office! Those who do not arrive will be automatically dismissed."
"The guards outside the city will enter the city and seal off the official hall!”
"Bring over all the records regarding taxes, prisons, personnel, and soldiers!”
……
The taking over of the government office went very smoothly. With Cadet's death, the government office was leaderless. Coupled with Aiders 'personal decree, no one dared to obstruct the Empire's influence on the local areas. After Natara executed a few of the people who were perfunctory on the spot, the entire government office was operating at high speed under Joly's orders.
Arthur and Chelsea chatted on the side while watching Joly deal with the affairs of the territory shrewdly and shrewdly.
" It looks like the residents of Gomir City can finally live a good life," Chelsea lamented.
" Yes." Arthur nodded." With Sir Joly's methods, it won't be long before the territory is governed in an orderly manner. Now you know why I let you go!”
Chelsea turned around and looked into Arthur's eyes." I know you're different from the nobles I know." I'm a thousand times better than them."
" Heh." Arthur smiled. He did not think he was noble. All his actions were purposeful and utilitarian.
"Aren't you going to leave? Cadet's death has already been determined as death from overwork. No one will go after you anymore. Although it was a pity that the crimes he had committed could not be made public, at least it would not attract the attention of the Imperial Capital. Moreover, the earlier this matter ended, the earlier everyone could build their homes.”Arsène asked tentatively. Deep down, he did not want Chelsea to leave.
Chelsea was silent for a moment, then looked up and gave Arthur a deep look.
"I don't plan to leave. In the past, I chose to leave because I was working here. I saw Cadet's evil deeds every day, but I couldn't do anything. This feeling of nothingness made my soul die, so I thought of assassinating Cadet.”Chelsea looked at Arthur with her big eyes, which were glowing brightly. Her face was flushed." It's different now. You and Sir Joly have given me hope. I want to stay here and watch everything change bit by bit.”
"That's good too. Since you've decided to stay, the territory needs some warm-hearted people to change the old age of this place.”His tone was calm, but Arthur's joy was inevitable. Chelsea was also a powerful figure. After all, everything that appeared in the original art had some elements of destiny. With her around, Arthur's goal of rebuilding the empire would be realized faster.

A few days later, everything in the territory began to operate according to Joly's will.
The evildoers were punished, the unjust cases were redressed, and a certain amount of compensation was given.
Taxes were reduced, and policies to promote production began to be implemented.
The army was purged, and those with bad records and physical fitness were dismissed.
The goal to reorganize the territory was achieved as scheduled. Next was to build the territory, including infrastructure, economy, legal system, and even military construction.
All of this would take time, so after everything was settled, Arthur decided to return to the capital.
It would take too much time for him to accumulate strength in his territory and wait for the empire to fall apart. It was far from being as fast as relying on bloodline to directly seize power. Reorganizing the territory was only to provide him with money, manpower, and many other conveniences.
When they returned to the Imperial Capital, Blackeye was the only one left by Arthur's side. Chelsea took up a post in the territory government, and Natara was left behind by Arthur to protect Joly and the others. On the other hand, Sibiya was quite interested in the prosperity of the Imperial City. However, Joly was already old and it was not convenient for her to travel far. With a bitter look on her face, Arthur rejected her request to travel with him.
After returning to the Imperial Capital, Arthur and his " first wife " Aiders spent another night lovey-dovey, and the days became regular.
In the morning, Aiders went to the military camp to deal with military affairs, while Arthur took the four little lolis to the suburbs to hunt Peril Species to increase their strength.
The afternoon was a warm family life. Arthur and Aiders 'relationship quickly warmed up and they were glued to each other.
Couples in love always had to do what couples should do. Shopping, eating, playing…the two of them were everywhere in the capital.
The restaurant that they had just visited in the Imperial Capital had left a deep impression on Arthur. It was said that many of the dishes there had been passed down from the great countries in the distant East. They were very unique. Arthur and Aiders liked it very much, so they often went there.
Naturally, Arthur and Xier met more often. Over time, Arthur and his wife and Xier became good friends.
Let's not talk about this for the time being.
During this time, Arthur had the three Beastmen ask around for news about Leona. After all, they couldn't just ignore what had happened. However, perhaps it was because Arthur's painting skills were too poor or the woman had hidden herself too well, but after several investigations, there was no trace of Leona.

As usual, it was a collector's item and had good reviews!
There was good news. It had been more than ten days since the book was opened, and the contract for this book had finally been signed. I know that my updates aren't good enough. I'm an amateur writer. I won't say much about the reason. Everyone understands. However, I will persevere! Thank you for your support!
