They even suspected that, in fact, more than a hundred years ago, after the war with the Supre Forest ended, the Bell Federation had reached its peak and then began to decline.
Later on, it was rely relying on its accumulated resources and powerful military to barely sustain itself.
Kael’s eyes darkened slightly; it was because of this suspicion that he adamantly insisted on developing his own territory.
Only by strengthening the territory under his control would he feel a sense of security.
Even if... even if in the future, the Duchy of Ingilan or the Bell Federation, despite his interference and influence, still followed the sa script and headed towards destruction...
As long as his core territory remained intact, even if other places turned into dead zones, the peril wouldn’t imdiately spread to the border regions.
After all, according to the rules governing the appearance of dungeons, the older and more prosperous an area is, the more often its dungeons have been raided.
Obviously, the closer one is to the Federation Royal Court, the higher the challenge level of the dungeons, to the point of being daunting.
For soone like him, a Border Lord at the edge of the Bell Federation, which was also the edge of the world, even if a dead zone appeared, it would take a long ti for those Magic Beasts to traverse the vast distances and threaten his territory.
To put it bluntly, when that ti ca and the teleportation array was activated, guiding the exiled refugees to the territory, he could still elevate his territory to a new height, even if it ant feeding off the federation’s resources.
Of course, whether or not he would ultimately make such a decision depended on how things unfolded. If he could develop stably in the rear, he would adopt another developnt thod.
But regardless of the developnt direction, the premise was that he possessed a stable rear area.
"Forget it, Elanna, don’t overthink it. These things are too far off for us.
In a few days, I plan to return to my territory. Coming back will take quite so ti, so let’s go out for a walk today!"
Kael looked at Elanna and said softly.
Elanna’s eyes brightened slightly. It was the first ti she had received an invitation from Kael in the Royal Capital. She did not feel shy but instead smiled and said:
"It’s rare for you to invite out today."
Her words made Kael feel a bit conflicted.
Elanna didn’t realize that it was usually her who ca to find him most of the ti.
Even though when Elanna visited, he wouldn’t ignore her and would try to give her a relatively joyful day (without any special activities involved), her words still made him feel a bit guilty.
After all, the progress between him and Hassaka was much faster than with his fiancée.
This sense of guilt always made him feel a faint sense of remorse when facing Elanna.
Hassaka looked at Elanna with so envy. She knew that when Kael spoke that way, he surely planned to go out alone with Miss Elanna later.
The clever Hassaka understood that this was not her place to intrude, so she planned to give the two more private space.
Thus, she quietly stepped back, as if she rembered so forgotten chore, and ran off happily.
Kael, who had been watching Hassaka’s movents secretly, relaxed a bit upon noticing her discreet actions.
It was really unbelievable. Even though in his previous life he was already experienced and had many female fans, he never engaged in a certain kind of transaction between celebrities and female fans. The intense training and matches at the club had already drained most of his energy.
Such masterful ti managent operations were sothing he had never attempted. Yet here, inside the ga, he was experiencing a chaotic situation.
So, should he feel happy or be amused by this special experience?
Kael still showed a gentle smile to his fiancée and said, "Shall we take a walk around the comrcial district?"
Elanna rembered sothing and her face lit up with a light smile, her voice barely audible:
"Okay!"
...
[Outside the gate]
"By the way, Kael!"
After leaving Kael’s residence, Elanna seed to rember sothing and laughed teasingly, saying:
"On the way to the comrcial district, we’ll pass by our academy. I plan to stop by and get so stuff; can you wait for ?"
Kael nodded and said, "Haven’t been to the Royal Knight Academy in years, might as well visit with you today. Should be a nice experience."
Elanna’s laughter carried a hint of lightness, and she understood the underlying aning in Kael’s words.
As they were about to get onto the carriage, Elanna suddenly leaned in close, breathing warmly as she whispered softly:
"Just like you, anywhere with you is a wonderful experience!"
Kael instinctively turned around, only to see Elanna mischievously jumping onto the carriage.
He shook his head helplessly; Elanna was always so impulsive!
The carriage started moving toward the comrcial district, but the atmosphere inside had subtly changed.
Perhaps because of her words before getting on the carriage, they both sat in silence, staring at each other, without a word for a long ti. Eventually, Elanna seed to grow tired from the bumpy ride.
