385: Chapter 385: The Illusion That Was Shattered Again 385: Chapter 385: The Illusion That Was Shattered Again Being confined at ho was not without alternative options, and despite the New Year, Zhao Guang was actually very busy.
In his own domain in the Otherworld, there were still a lot of matters that required his attention.
So things others didn’t understand, and he could only rely on himself.
With a sigh of resignation, Zhao Guang ca to realize, upon arriving in his domain and looking at those docunts, what a Lord’s daily duties typically entailed.
The seemingly trivial matters all needed his personal oversight.
Nor could he just delegate them to others, as doing so could easily lead to a division of power.
If he wasn’t careful to maintain control, the consequences could be unimaginable.
Unfortunately, his domain had not yet settled into proper order, so all sorts of trivial issues ended up resting on his shoulders.
Even if these minor matters only seed minor from his perspective.
To an ordinary person, they might not be so minor after all.
For now, it was manageable with the few subordinates he had, most of whom were slaves.
When the population increased and these people beca citizens, such matters would definitely multiply.
“No,” he muttered, “I must find a way to quickly resolve these issues.
If that fails, I’ll need to find a few assistants, the reliable kind.
If this continues, it will impact my own advancent.”
In fact, Zhao Guang felt that he was already running short on ti.
The ti spent dealing with these matters would be better used for magic research.
While Zhao Guang was pondering, Jeana suddenly ran in.
“Master, master, they’ve co, the Rabbitfolk have arrived.”
Zhao Guang was startled, then rembered those rabbits; he didn’t expect them to act so quickly.
But it was understandable that Jeana was excited; after all, she was a Beastman herself.
“Good, let’s go have a look.
By the way, is the place where these Rabbitfolk will reside ready?”
Qiao Miya, who had followed inside, hurriedly replied, “It’s ready, but it’s only a temporary solution.
Common housing will take so ti to build.”
There was no helping it, with the harsh winter, even though these people seed to have boundless energy, physical Laws still had to be obeyed.
“As long as it’s temporarily useable, that’s fine.
And the clothes are enough, right?”
“Clothes, well, with so alterations, they should work.”
What did that an, why the need for alterations, could these rabbits all be that fiery?
Zhao Guang felt his nose grow warm, as though sothing was about to uncontrollably flow out.
Couldn’t stand it anymore, he had to go check it out.
This winter was far colder than Earth’s.
Lately, Earth’s climate was inexplicable, with each year hotter than the last, and snow becoming a rare sight in the North.
How much nicer it was here with regular snowfalls, the land covered in white as far as the eye could see.
In the distance, large carts drawn by oxen approached rapidly, escorted by Jackal Wolfn.
This ti, Aleya was nowhere to be seen, instead replaced by another common overseer.
But those white, hopping figures getting off the carts were undoubtedly Rabbitfolk.
Yes, those long ears, snow-white skin, and the white fur on the backs of their hands almost blending in were unmistakable.
Their eyes were a bright red, gemstone-like, delicate and exquisite.
Even though they appeared bedraggled, they really fit his aesthetic.
But… “Why are they all children?” Zhao Guang observed the group of Rabbitfolk, none taller than one ter forty and many below one ter twenty.
Had all the adult mbers of the tribe perished?
“They are not children, these are the adults.
They look like this when they grow up.”
No way, adults barely reaching one ter forty, they all looked like children.
Especially with those pitiful eyes staring at him, it gave him an odd sense of guilt.
Yes, guilt, this was completely different from what he had expected.
Damn, another illusion shattered.
No wonder Rabbitfolk were considered weak.
Being so tiny, whether in lee or at range, their strength was greatly limited.
It made sense that Beastn would look down on such little creatures.
Even the Mouse-n had many breeds larger than them.
Mouse-n excelled at burrowing, skilled in subterranean assaults, whereas Rabbitfolk lacked these strengths and even had weaker fighting abilities.
Due to their evolution, the Rabbitfolk no longer sported sharp claws.
“Alright, I understand.
Leave these to ; I’ll take care of the follow-up matters.”
Being suddenly entrusted with twenty thousand Rabbitfolk felt like being saddled with twenty thousand burdens.
Fortunately, he was not short on provisions.
Any ordinary noble would have been crushed by such a burden.
“Alas, why must I be a decent person.”
Jeana looked at Zhao Guang, unsure of what the master ant.
Zhao Guang felt helpless in the face of these legitimate lolitas.
Had it been a pervert standing here, they might have been thrilled with their own tastes.
But he was a decent person, it wasn’t possible for him to lay hands on these people.
He waved his hand: “Take them to settle in.
Also, have them pick out a group skilled in plant inspection, I need them to assist with so experints.”
Such a large group outnumbered his current personnel.
There was plenty of work to go around.
And during this cold winter, no matter how skilled at farming the Rabbitfolk were, they could not be expected to work the land just now.
So for the ti being, a few assisting with his projects would suffice.
Leaving there, Zhao Guang continued with his duties and training, business as usual.
What Zhao Guang didn’t expect was that, despite the deep winter, there were still those who were scheming.
At this mont, Coruas sat in his chair, with many kneeling on one knee below, faces full of loyalty.
“You all know that with your status, it’s unlikely you’ll ever beco nobles.
But now there’s an opportunity.
I have ten charters for colonization.
You can beco Lords of new territories and rise to nobility through your achievents,” he said.
“Next, you need only obey my orders and establish territories in specific locations.
I will help arrange everything afterward.”
“Did everyone hear that?
Work diligently for , or you’ll regret it.”
Coruas glanced helplessly at the Prince, exasperated by the turmoil caused by his interference, but it was unavoidable.
Now that both n were inextricably tied together, no matter how incompetent, Coruas had to support him.
If anything were to happen to the Prince, keeping his own life would be considered a stroke of luck.
“So, soone will instruct you further on what to do.
If there are any issues, rember to contact us promptly.”
