The next day, early in the morning.
Fang Hao awoke from his sleep, looking at Little White who was still sound asleep beside him.
He lightly moved his leg which was resting on his waist.
He tapped lightly on Little White’s hip twice, causing her to slowly open her
eyes.
“Mtnm…”
“Time to wake up, we’re going to Pruell City today.”
Perhaps due to the closing of the store, Little White, who had taken a few days off in the territory, got up even later than Fang Hao.
“Oh, right.” Little White instantly woke up.
She had actively sought out Fang Hao yesterday, asking him when he would reopen the store.
Yet, she fell into a deep slumber today, sleeping even deeper than her master.
She sat up and helped Fang Hao get dressed before putting on her coat.
She opened the door, stealthily peeped her head out to check, and then quickly ran out.
Fang Hao stretched leisurely.
After a simple wash, he too left the room and went downstairs.
Eira was preparing breakfast. She did not react unusually to Little White, who had just run down from upstairs.
“Good morning, Master,” Eira greeted him with a smile.
Fang Hao yawned and gave a faint smile to Eira, who had a sweet smile.
He thought for a while and said, “Eira, keep breakfast simple and notify the maids that they will have the day off. I will take you all to Pruell City for a stroll and buy some things you like.”
Pruell City had already become a subsidiary city of Fang Hao.
It wouldn’t be a bad idea to take the maids out for a stroll and to relax a bit.
Being cooped up on the grounds all the time, surrounded by undead creatures, he hoped they wouldn’t develop any psychological problems.
What if they became gradually distorted?
“Really? Can we all go?”
Before Eira could answer, the two rabbit maids responsible for cleaning let out
a gasp.
They were very excited about Fang Hao’s plan to take them out for fun.
“You can all go, but don’t run around when we get there. If you get lost, there’s no one to find you,” Fang Hao said with a smile.
“Yay! Thank you, Master!” The maids cheered.
Eira also smiled faintly and said to the maids, “Alright, you don’t need to clean here. Go and spread the news, so everyone can get ready. We will depart after
Master finishes his breakfast.”
“Okay.”
The maids happily rushed out of the lord’s manor.
After breakfast,
Fang Hao manufactured 101 merchant wagons directly.
Little White directed the skeletons to move the condiments and utensils from the warehouse onto the wagons.
The other maids, under Eira’s organization, put on their best clothes, waiting to head to Pruell City together.
Fang Hao stood aside, watching Eira, Anjia, and others chatting.
Soon, Little White had finished preparations on her side as well.
All necessary items had been loaded into the wagons.
She quickly walked over and said softly, “Master, Sister Eira, everything here is ready. We can set off now.”
“Okay, get in the carriage.”
Fang Hao greeted, and all the maids got on the wagons.
The convoy then left the territory and headed towards Pruell City.
Two hours later,
The caravan arrived at Pruell City.
The sudden appearance of several rabbit and fox girls, fair-skinned and adorable, caused quite a stir in the city.
The maids, with Eira in the center, were excitedly shopping around.
Residents gathered on both sides of the road, looking at these vibrant beast girls.
For awhile,
The maids were shopping at the front, and many followed behind to watch the bustle.
Inside the city lord’s mansion of Pruell City,
Fang Hao sat on a beautifully carved wooden chair, with Anjia sitting next to him.
Across from him was the current City Lord, Tawik, who used to be a well- known cloth merchant in the city.
“Sir, the city has now returned to normal, and the news of my appointment as the city lord has also been sent to the Federal Conference. I estimate that it won’t take long for news to come back,” Tawik said.
His lifelong wish had always been to expand the family’s textile business. Unexpectedly, Fang Hao had directly placed him in the position of City Lord, shifting his responsibility from managing textile trade to governing an entire city.
With his increasing understanding of Fang Hao, Tavek grew more and more in
awe.
It was certain that Fang Hao possessed powerful armies of humans, Orcs, and the Undead.
Villagers returning from the Blood Clan even mentioned that their rescuing army included a large amount of Dragon-Type Troops.
All this information made Tavek tremble inwardly, but he also felt blessed to have made friends with Fang Hao.
“As long as everything goes smoothly, it’s good. I’ve already arranged for our army to launch an attack on Crescent Heights. You need to strengthen the city’s defense to prevent the desperate Blood Clan from taking any retaliatory actions,” Fang Hao said calmly, picking up a cup of fruit wine from the table.
Fang Hao was quite satisfied with Tavek1 s efficiency.
He had managed to present the collusion between the Blood Clan and Cyril as an ordinary change of power.
He had also gained the trust of the other power holders in the city, who were supportive of him becoming the City Lord.
“Understood, I will immediately arrange to strengthen the number of city defenses,” Tawik assured him.
After finishing his statement, Tavek gestured to his attendant who brought a small-scale sandbox model of Pruell City, showing the streets and buildings. Although it wasn’t the kind that could be included in the Book of Lords, you could clearly tell the location of each building.
Tavek continued, “Sir, these are 12 vacant mansions in the city, how would you like to deal with them?”
The source of these mansions was the houses left vacant after Fang Hao killed Cyril’s followers.
The owners were all the city’s elite and their houses naturally stood out, deserving the label of mansions.
“This one looks pretty good,” Fang Hao pointed at a mansion near the City Lord’s residence.
This mansion had a courtyard and was sufficiently spacious to accommodate the maids.
“Great choice, sir. This mansion used to be the residence of the minister of internal affairs and is now vacant,” Tavek complimented.
No wonder the house was so large. It used to belong to the minister of internal affairs.
“Fine, I will take this one and you can sell the rest,” said Fang Hao.
“Understood, sir.”
Having obtained the keys to the mansion.
Fang Hao and Tawik continued their conversation for a while before Fang Hao finally left the City Lord’s residence.
After leaving the City Lord’s residence.
Fang Hao went to the ‘Scoop of Delight’ shop and met up with Little White.
The three of them proceeded to the newly acquired mansion.
After passing through many streets, they arrived at the affluent district. The streets were cleaner here and the passersby were dressed much more elegantly.
They reached the past residence of the minister of internal affairs. In front of the towering mansion’s gates, Little White gaped at the sight.
She knew Fang Hao was arranging a place for them to live, but she did not expect it to be so grand.
This wasn’t an ordinary affluent district. It was the center of power in Pruell City.
A short distance further, one would arrive at the City Lord’s residence.
“Mas…master, are we staying here?” Little White asked, visibly shocked.
“Yes the daily necessities inside should be complete. Later, you all can divide the rooms among yourselves.” Fang Hao took out the key, unlocked the door, and pushed it open to reveal the large courtyard inside.
Fang Hao nodded in satisfaction. It was indeed a great place.
Of course, it still couldn’t compare to his City Lord’s residence.
Commencing his inspection, he entered the mansion and climbed the stairs.
All the furniture was still in the mansion, Tavek seemed to have just evicted the mansion’s inhabitants and didn’t pillage the items within.
“Fang Hao, take a look at this.” In one of the rooms, Anjia called out to him. This room contained a desk and a bookshelf, seemingly the study room of the former minister of internal affairs.
In Anjia’s hand, she was holding a beautifully crafted curved sword.
“Let me see.” Fang Hao walked over.
Anjia handed him the curved sword, and the weapon’s attributes appeared as soon as it landed in Fang Hao’ s hand.
[Absolution Curve Sword (Purple)]
[Type: One-Handed Sword]
[Damage: Third-Order]
(Description: A curve sword that has killed its former master. Rumour has it that anyone who possesses this weapon will suffer until death.)
