Lord: Exiled by Stepmother, I'll Rule the World Anyway

Field was delighted. I don’t know whether it was luck or skill, but he actually hit the target with one shot. The pigeon is in good condition, but its right wing is injured, and now it is like a free-roaming chicken, looking around stupidly.

"I will cure it." Kuroyu mustered up his courage, clenched his fists, and begged with tears in his eyes, "Don't kill my sister, please, I will do anything."

"Haha, poor little girl, I didn't want to kill anyone. After all, the Night Territory didn't issue a law against hunting birds." Field gave himself a step up.

Imperial decrees only stipulate that land belongs to the nobility, and only territorial decrees promulgated by the nobility themselves regulate the wealth of rivers and skies.

"But the pigeons do belong to my private property. I will punish you both with labor reform. You will have to go to the chicken pen and shovel the chicken manure every evening for one month without any pay. Do you have any objections?"

"Ah?" The two sisters were dumbfounded.

Field asked doubtfully: "Any objection?"

"No...no! Thank you for your grace!" The two of them responded excitedly, crying with joy.

They had no idea that the punishment would be so light.

Is picking up chicken manure a punishment? For the two sisters who have been doing farm work since childhood, it is just daily life.

"Go to the yard behind the big winery and find Kao, the butler. He will tell you how to do it. Let's start today."

After Field finished handling it, he looked at the two running figures and said with a confused look on his face: "Why are they still looking happy after being punished?"

Asuna winked playfully: "I guess it's an honor to work for you, right?"

The two returned to the room and found that Rosaria had come back before anyone knew when. She was sitting at the desk with her big white legs crossed, drinking Field's black tea, but she was holding Field's development plan in her hand, looking confused. force.

"Why can't I understand any of the words you wrote?" Rosaria turned the paper upside down, confused.

Only those who can understand it are ghosts. This is written in modern Chinese.

"I want this effect. Someday some spies will sneak in and see all my little secrets." Field shrugged, "Now that Rosaria is back, let's discuss the Survey Corps. "

Field told Asheina the details of the outing.

"Rescue Shirley Gasina, or not. Of course, our work may be in vain. We may not discuss this for now."

Pointing to the paper map of the Northern Province, the three outermost territories of the Northern Province are Cloud Veil, Night Veil and Morning Veil, which lead to the High Castle Province and the Riek Province. The Cloud Veil Territory can also lead to the Elves. The homeland of the dwarves, the Cloud Veil Territory was originally a place where elves, dwarves, humans and orcs fought. The corrupted monsters there were definitely much stronger than the Night Veil Territory.

In contrast, in the Night Veil Territory and the Morning Veil Territory, there are not particularly many powerful corrupt creatures due to the imperial defense line and the cleaning up by royal and church troops. The deeper you go into the Northern Province, the more terrifying the enemy will become.

The Claudia Road is the only way to the Night Territory from Griffin Viscounty.

"If they still have mounts, they can reach the Night Territory in one day."

Field was very confused about rescuing people. He was not very kind-hearted, or he reacted when he heard that it was a woman.

"Gathina? If I remember correctly, she is also a big family with a history of 600 years, right? The family believes in the goddess of war. She relies on bravery and loyalty. She is deeply trusted by the royal family and is a rare duke with real power."

There are seven electors in the empire (the electors can even be counts, viscounts, etc., the title is related to strength, but not absolute). In theory, the throne is elected by voting, but the reality is that the throne will always belong to the Griffin family. . Even though the previous empress turned the Northern Province into a place of corruption, the current empress is still the young lady of the Griffin family, and the nobles of the Northern Province did not vote against it. After all, she was dead.

In addition, the empire has thirteen dukes and sixty-seven marquises.

Not even one-third of them had real power, and most of the duke's territories were only in name, and the land was managed by the imperial magistrates.

"The power of the Gasina family is less than one thousandth of what it was ten years ago." Spreading his hands, Field said with an amused face, "The empress's loyal dog is right, but the vanguard against the orcs is the Gasina family, which is shrouded in They are the ones in the gray fog, they are still the main force of the expeditionary force, they are the main force of the Survey Corps, and everyone in the family is almost dead."

Short name: So involved that all the work in the company was given to him.

"Pfft~" Rosalia spat out all the black tea, and then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief, "Then Miss Shirley's worth will be greatly reduced."

As a noble, Rosaria knew what Field wanted.

Benefit.

As long as the nobles swore promised benefits or had legally binding agreements, they could really benefit. If Shirley can be saved and an agreement can be negotiated, Field can gain something.

"Whether he's alive or not is still a question." Field sat down and looked at Asheena on his left who looked confused, and then at Rosalía who was drinking tea.

Except for himself, everyone participating in the discussion was actually the Chosen One.

Field was stunned: There will be more chosen ones in the future. Do you want to vote then? But you still have to listen to me in the general direction.

"It's best if you die. The equipment and treasures left behind are all ours and don't cause us any trouble." Once they think about it from the perspective of profit, everyone's words are cold, and Rosaria is no exception, "But It is unlikely that all of them will die in the battle. The Survey Corps must be escorted by the Chosen Ones, and at most they will be in extremely poor condition."

"If they are in a very bad state, they will either capture the Chosen Ones or kill them all." Field said coldly, "But if the state is still good, you can earn favors and benefits by providing help in times of need, or you can simply negotiate terms with Shirley."

Negotiating terms with other nobles is really profitable, unlike the original owner who gave away random money before his mother's heart was broken.

"Would that expose the territory?" Ashina asked.

Field said very logically: "It doesn't matter. First, they are willing to destroy the corrupt creatures along the way, and they can also relieve us of the pressure. Second, the principles of the Night Territory are in my body, and no one in the empire can invade them at will." .Third, it’s useless at night, it’s worthless.”

The Night Territory they care about is worthless in the eyes of normal nobles. Otherwise, the northern province would have been taken over by the nobles, and no one would be willing to invest precious resources in the corrupted land.

The only thing worth worrying about is the ill will from the family, but when Field went to the Maple Leaf Territory, he had already exposed the fact that he was alive.

"The Night Territory cannot be autistic in the gray mist forever and not develop. Sooner or later, people will know about it. Of course, the most critical thing, such as the existence of the Chosen One, cannot be exposed. I have to make good arrangements for this."
