"This color is so beautiful . " "It smells so nice too . " Venuda commented after Bimonson . Both of them took a sip and smiled . "Oh, and I heard the Kukideri family that sold the land to us a while ago were attacked by bandits on the way . " "Is it vengeance?" "I assume so . It might affect our business in a bad way . " "No, it will do us good . They will require more mercenaries . It's all money in the end . " * As time moved onto the middle of summer, the Torian King left the throne and all power came to Joonbum . It was a start of the Khalodian Kingdom . Nobles were shocked that the land had been given to a man who was considered a traitor, but they quickly dismissed it as it was in fact, a noble's way of life . -There will be civil war!- The rumor was spread by an unknown source that made the whole world focus on what was to come, but it did not happen . It was so peaceful on Khalodian land . Meanwhile, the Ress Merchant Group quickly overpowered the opposing nobles with their financial power . It was as Joonbum expected . The loyalty of this land was a result of money . There was no chivalry or honor, as one would fantasize . Nobles that arrived at Khalodian were shocked . They were shocked by the huge castle with a tall wall that towered over fifty feet outside the perimeter . Not even the empire's capital was this grand in scale . It was like a forest of buildings . All buildings inside were made out of stone, and the various statues and roads were so clean . After half a day inside the carriage, they arrived at the new inner castle of Khalodian . The road was covered with precious blue stones that made distinctive noises as the horses trotted along . The land was filled with fascinating cultures and technologies that mesmerized the nobles . Nobles began staying at the Khalodian capital and more business came about from within the city . -The Khalodian Administration is offering a land management service . - People were skeptical at first as they grew suspicious that it was an act to swallow the land as a whole, but they quickly realized it was too good to be true . It promised the development of the land while not requiring nobles to pay for it . "Jackson, how is it going?" Joonbum asked Jackson, not turning his eyes from the window where he was watching the roads below . Jackson, the Secretary of the Kingdom, smiled and nodded . "It's a huge success . There's no problem . " "Good . " Jackson laughed . "It's only natural . " "I thought they would oppose the idea . " "That's because you overestimated them, my prince . They are fools . " Jackson spoke calmly, but it was apparent that he despised them . "They took down their own king to please us and sold off their kingdom . What can we expect from such people? They are garbage . " Joonbum smiled awkwardly . "I see . Oh, and that . The way you call me . Can you stop doing that? I can't get over it . " Joonbum changed subject and Jackson laughed out loud . "Haha, you are a prince now . You should get used to it . " "Yeah, but… call me a commander, or… a general… or something! I will save prince and princess for my brother and sister . " Jackson shook his head . "Okay, I will . " He agreed and looked at Joonbum . 'I can do that, but the world doesn't see it that way . Khalodian is yours . No one can deny it . ' Jackson thought that in time, Joonbum would have to accept that fact . "Oh, by the way . I heard the amount decreased a lot . How are you going to take care of that?" Joonbum asked . Jackson smiled . "I'm working on it . " "Yeah?" "The landlords seemed to be surprised by having much less expenses on the land . They don't seem to know what to do with the funding so we are offering them to deposit it safely at the Khalodian Central Bank . "
