After seeing off Fang Thirteen, I imdiately felt a sense of comfort.
As expected, compared to for a gentleman, 10 years to take revenge isnt too long, solving the hatred as soon as possible made feel more comforted.
Once Fang Thirteen left, the pressure on West-Resisting City instantly weakened by a lot. Even though I found out from Aleyas words that Li Neng on our east sent out so people to show off their military strength, their army was worse than Fang Thirteens army by at least two levels and was sothing Felita could effortlessly defend against.
With this being the way things were, I needed to think about what my next step was going to be.
As of now, the resources I have on hand are as follows.
Firstly, there were the two fighter personnel: Aleya and Felita. Aleyas strength was still about the sa as I last ti I checked while Felita improved slightly. However, this sort of improvent is very unstable; during the ti I ca back, she was in a state of extre fear, to the point that it crippled her fighting power. Therefore, I temporarily didnt intend for her to liberate her Demon power.
Then, theres West-Resisting City. Compared to the ti before I went to Yun Hai, West-Resisting City has made a certain amount of progress. Once Moon is able to bring so old hands to create a thermal power generator, West-Resisting City will officially enter the Industrial Age. Agricultural production has also recovered to a decent level, so the lower tax policy has achieved initial results and a great amount of wilderness has been reclaid for cultivation.
In addition to this, the demon cultivation industry has already achieved so initial results. Not only has it produced quite so number of uncommon materials, it has also produced a rare species like the colorless sli. The two Charm Demons have also co in very handy, so I feel like Ive basically profited.
The army expanded from 81 people to 163 people. Although Ive divided 23 people to be part of Bai Huangs patrol mbers, that still leaves the remaining 140 people for the official army.
The only problem is that the gold coins in the treasury have decreased. The original 2,500 gold coins are now about 1,500 gold coins remaining, but this was an inevitable result. The money was handed over to Moon for her discretion, so it will most likely disappear faster than the naked eye can see. Thinking about it just makes my flesh hurt.
Apart from these resources, there were two new groups.
The first is naturally Moon and his assistants that I purchased and brought over from Yun Hai. With Moon at the head, these people now basically constitute West-Resisting Citys internal affairs system. The work they do consists of so common affairs, discussing next step counterasures, contacting and monitoring various projects, constructions, and so on. If I were to rate Moon like I did to Aleya and Felita, then Moons rating would be SSR, the sa level as Aleya.
Of course, this is only for now. After all, Felita is currently West-Resisting Citys most treasured person. It wouldnt be a boast to say that the city is protected as long as shes present. I was the one who taught Aleya her swordsmanship and Moons work was sothing that I could already pretty much do (though I would be very tired). It was only Felitas role that couldnt be replaced.
Afterwards, theres Bai Huang and Hejis patrol system. Its main duty was to keep the law and order of West-Resisting City as well as maintain fairness and justice; basically things that comrade Little Huang most liked doing. The evaluation I held for Bai Huang was N, not essential. It would be better if she wasnt present since not only did she stand up, shes also outright threatened . Sooner or later, Ill find myself an opportunity to retaliate. However, even if Bai Huang isnt of much use, Heji is actually quite the capable young man. This could be seen from his swordsmanship as well as how accomplished he is in his conversational skills, so Im taking this situation as buy one Heji, get one Little Huang free.
Nowadays, my job is much easier.
The mont Fang Thirteen and her army left was the mont when the threat towards the city beca much smaller. Although the state of West-Resisting Citys people is still very tense, I didnt feel so tense because most of the work could be handed over to Moon.
This happens to be the reason why I like it here.
There are plenty of people who have far-reaching ambitions after they reincarnate, continue to work hard in the other world, and shine like a star, but why bother? Work is sothing that never has an end, business is sothing that will never finish, the sea of learning has no horizon, only the shore when you look back. If the work youre doing can be done by your subordinate, then why do it yourself. If the subordinate cant do it, then find a new subordinate that can. These two sentences are the core substance of the way of the slacker.
The only thing is, the current West-Resisting City is too weak. If I laze around and eat every day, then Im afraid there will co a day where all the food is done. Thats why I plan on doing sothing, and this sothing is what I talked about before; bringing Aleya to the Demon Race Territory to kill.
Theres no point in doing sothing that isnt profitable, so since Ive decided on this, there are three main points of profit.
The first is tempering Aleyas swordsmanship. After all, she trains in a swordsmanship ant for killing people. Once the swordsmanship reaches a certain level, real combat becos much more effective than training. As for the people that are near West-Resisting City, well, Aleya is no match for Fang Thirteens army, she cant exactly fight Yun Hais people, and as long as Li Neng doesnt take the initiative to send his army over to die, its not like she can climb over their city wall and besiege the city. That leaves the Demon Race as the most suitable training item. Theres a saying, the mountain dweller lives off the mountain, the shore dweller lives off the sea. Us West-Resisting City dwellers live off of so absolutely useless things, its only the Demon Race that can give us so warmth.
The second reason in, up to date, Felita still lacks a good magic staff. The sword Aleya uses is my dads forr sword, the Roaming Dragon, and its rarity is naturally outstanding. In comparison, Felita appears a little pathetic. I was thinking of buying a staff for her in Yun Hai, but it ended up that I couldnt even afford it. The reality of it hurts deep inside.
In the end, sorcerers are too rare to co by and that is what determines how highly priced their weapons are. The rarer sothing is, the more expensive it will be. There are many Overlords that have an expensive magic staff in their private stash with the purpose of attracting an outstanding sorcerer. In contrast, Felita is the model of being treated shittily. She has no request for a good weapon or decent equipnt yet is still hell-bent on protecting West-Resisting City and . If I dont reciprocate, then it would be too inexcusable. During this journey westward with Aleya, I planned on hunting so Demons on the sa level as Gobulang and collecting their materials for creating a staff. In the worst case scenario, the level of the staff would be blue.
Reason number three is related to that colorless sli.
During this period of ti, Ive observed it a few tis and feel like this fellows als should improve in quality, but West-Resisting City is too poor, how could there be so many precious materials for it to eat. So far, its eaten at least several gold coins in materials yet still hasnt shown any change from the outside and inside. Its like a material grinder, a bottomless black hole. It just so happens that I plan on going sowhere with Aleya this ti. The things that we can take along with us are limited and there will probably be tons of low-level Demons being lost along the way. It would be a pity to just throw all those materials away. Might as well bring this sli along with us since, on one hand, it is able to eat those inconvenient-to-take-along-materials. On the other hand
I have other uses for it.
