By the time Darius was done half an hour later, there were about 900 filled chests with different labels. He hadn't just randomly transmuted anything that had come to his mind these past few years, but had rather done everything slowly and categorically.

When Foldo and Jorge saw the various labels, they understood the depths of Darius' planning. With the things he had put forth, it would be truly hard not to build up a solid powerbase since he had covered almost every aspect!

In truth, Darius had actually covered every aspect, but there weren't enough chests here for him to leave them with even more materials. As such, he had the various servants leave as he spoke to Foldo and Jorge slowly.

"There are still a few more things, but since you will be taking them to the new territory, I don't want to burden you with too much weight or the journey would become even longer. I do not wish to leave them there because I don't know how long it would take you to reach there, and the defenses I have left are insufficient."

Foldo nodded. "I understand. I will send Georgina and an elite group I have trained over these past few years that are loyal to the location first to settle everything. Then, I shall slowly send over the various elites that we can trust, then the commoners and ex-nobles."

Jorge nodded in agreement, but Darius smiled thinly. "I trust you and Georgina, but I won't blindly trust anyone else in this faction. Take these Bags of Holding. Each one contains rolls of Soul Paper that you can use to draft loyalty contracts. Only send over those who have signed off, before you let them see our stockpile of resources."

Both Foldo and Jorge showed excitement instead of dismay at having their subordinates doubted. After all, it was not like they were attached or 100% trusting of those fellows, but only that they were sufficiently sure.

With these contracts though, it would become a matter of ease in sifting through who should become a core member of their faction who could be privy to these types of secrets and those who would at best be considered loose members and gain resources only through an equivalent exchange.

Darius nodded to them. "Now that this has been dealt with, I need you to bring me to your slave storage area, Foldo. I wish to pick someone to become Gunner's new team member."

Foldo looked surprised, but nodded when he peeked at Gunner who was now almost 7 feet tall. He could still remember the day when his master had come in to take away the former slave.

At that time, Foldo had only felt that Darius had made a wise choice in choosing a half-giant, but now he could see that Gunner had become something greater than what his original fate had probably deigned him to be.

Foldo also asked as he pointed to the other side of the large chamber. "What about the rare items we stored here?"

Darius gazed at them and smiled. "Bring them to the conference room. I'll head there after selecting my new assistant."

Foldo nodded and led Darius away towards the slave pens. As for Jorge, she only gazed at his back longingly before making sure the room was secured after some servants carried the rare materials up to the conference room.

Instead of following them, she contacted the elite squad under her command, making them sign the Soul Contract. As soon as they read through its details, they signed without hesitation on their faces.

After all, they had already made it known to Jorge that they were her people. She nodded with satisfaction and headed out with her crew to secure the new site.

Darius had given her a HoloBrace that was of the normal variety, meaning it had no AI and limited functions.

Still, he had connected it to his cloud, meaning that Jorge's brace was under the supervision of the Miranda AI although he had told the AI to hold off on creating a child AI for the server management so she could fully focus on Darius' needs for the time being.

Jorge had been given higher rights than Shanks for obvious reasons. He had only been physically scanned and registered on the network, but Jorge could directly do so much more with her own bracelet.

Jorge and Foldo had been informed of the migration of the residents of Poleria's Homestead as well as their value to the budding territory, so Jorge would rendezvous with them first and take Derek and Portia ahead.

Shanks and Foldo would bring the rest of their groups as one large caravan after securing logistics and security. When they got there, the new territory would have been kickstarted by the entire group.

Upon Darius' return, he could directly establish his academy and attract talents from all over the continent to his place. He also made some resource's for trading to boost his new territory's currency.

After all, they couldn't use Ando Coins anymore, and a new currency would have to be backed by value if it didn't want to be utter shit in terms of exchange.

However, with the obvious quality of Darius' goods, would that ever be a problem?

He even had a single slot full of 999 bags that held items like Awakening Scrolls, Spark Potions of different kinds, and even aheavily diluted bottles of Lunar Dew to be sold at a grand auction that would be built in the territory.

Once there, he would only accept the currency he would come up with later. So he would set up a brutal currency conversion point outside the auction house where esteemed visitors would have to trade their local currency for his own, at rates that were extremely horrible, but enough for the patrons to swallow in order to get his premium goods.

That was just one means.

Right now, he was currently in the expanded slave pens that Foldo kept, so would think about the best way to handle the situation at a later time.

Like always, the place was neat and quite homely. Darius knew middle-class citizens in Listo who had lived in poorer conditions than these slaves.

Apart from a bit of heaviness in between their brows from being treated as goods, most of them were actually quite happy with their life, just hoping to find a good master eventually,

Good food, sanitary conditions, enough entertainment, and chances to gain knowledge. Most importantly, life here was peaceful.
