Chapter 80 . Harvest, and preparation for war .
There was once a male celebrity, that grew to extreme fame in the late 2000s, and later plummeted in terms of support and fame .
… This was because it was later revealed that he was actually bald .
A smile that could melt any woman’s heart, snow white teeth, as well as high, angular cheekbones . Not even the face that seemed as if crafted by the gods could stop his fall .
Although it could be different with another actor, actor Kim Deuk-Chul was the most popular male actor in the 20s, and this lead to a huge backfiring in his image, due to him ‘betraying’ all of his female fans when they found out he wore a wig .
“Hello, everyone . How have you been?”
Kim Deuk-Chul, who had taken off his wig, didn’t look amazing . It was even more so due to the fact that he hadn’t even completely shaved his hair, due to the fact that he felt that all of his ‘remaining’ hair was a waste .
“The reason I… am here is… well, it is to apologize for everyone that had fallen for my stupid trick back when I was an actor, and was to embarassed to embrace the fact that I was, and am, bald . Also, I would first like to thank the Galaxy Corporation for giving such an opportAs if she was running away, Lee Chae-Rin hurried away from the Lord’s hall . She needed some private space to sort out her thoughts .
“To think that you even had a daughter… Ack!”
Suddenly screaming, Lee Chae-Rin fell to the floor on her butt .
“Oww… What did I even bump into…”
“Sorry, are you okay?”
And someone held their hand out to the fallen Lee Chae-Rin .
“I-I’m okay…”
“No, no . You nearly got injured because of me . But… I haven’t seen you around here before?”
“Oh… yes, I’m actually the Lord of the Dorado Territory . ”
“…What?”
Suddenly, the woman, Lucia’s voice turned frosty .
“Oh, so you’re that woman with a lot of money?”
“Do you know me?”
“Of course, who wouldn’t? Anyway, I’m Lucia, the secretary of the territory . ”
And in the air was an invisible pressure, formed by the two women staring each other down .
Economic Power Vs Military Power .
This was the first meeting of the two women that would have the greatest rivalry throughout the whole of Pangaea .
As Kang Chul-In had enough economic power and stability, he decided to increase the population . Sky Fortress Laputa Lord: Kang Chul-In Level: 9 (Can grow until level 30) State: Idle Price: Costs for 1712 gold per every 30 days (changes depend of State) Security: Very good / Finances: Average: / Food: Severely lacking (Before harvest) Loyalty: 99/100 Happiness: 80/80 Durability: 1000/1000 Military: 300/300 Facilities: 27 (not including bedding) Population: 1286 humans / 47 Dwarves / 93 Ants Population Limit (human): 1500 (varies with level of the territory and Lord) Population outside the city: 15 (adventurers)
‘1500, huh…’
Although it was easy to increase the populace, Kang Chul-In didn’t do so immediately . magic
It only costs about 5 gold to summon a person . And even to summon the max limit of people, it would only cost 7500 gold .
But the difficulty lies in the fact that you had to pay them constantly, every month . Bedding, food, salary, etc . It was difficult to handle if the increase in population backfired against them . It would cause their economy, which had just turned for the better to struggle again .
“I will just discuss with Timothy . ”
And while Kang Chul-In was looking for Timothy, Kwak-Jung appeared .
“Milord . ”
“Oh, you’ve come?”
“I have something to speak to you about . ”
“What is it?”
“I have something to speak to you about…”
“Well, go on then . ”
“Hmm… I’ve been thinking for the past few days, and…”
“As a result?”
“I-I believe that…”
“Do not hesitate, and speak . I will make the final decision after listening to your decision . I will not ignore or shame you even if I disagree with you . ”
“W-Well…”
And after hesitating for a little bit, Kwak Jung’s eyes gleamed .
“Milord . ”
“We need to start war right now . ”
And it was faster than even Kang Chul-In was anticipating .
