Chapter 122: Chapter 95 Yatun Sanmin (Soliciting

Recommendation Tickets)

“Sigh—”

“It’s finally over.”

In the captain’s cabin, Elsa and Fiona sat unceremoniously on the couch, shoes off, exposing their legs clad in white silk stockings to the air.

As for the stockings, they were naturally crafted by Lilith using magic.

“You two were so aloof just now. Won’t you keep it up a bit longer?

“Oh, please, Sister Gonnia, having so many people staring made me nervous.

Elsa’s first time handling such a matter meant she was nothing like the leisurely Fiona; Elsa was tense throughout the whole process, fearing that she might perform poorly and bring disaster upon Yatun Duchy.

“Besides, casting that memory rewrite spell so many times. It’s not the magic power that’s the issue, but the mental fatigue that’s really unbearable.”

“That’s because you have so much magic power.”

That was precisely why Elsa had been sent here-she was the most talented witch in all of Yatun.

“Right, Sister Gonnia.”

Elsa asked, “Several of these people have serious issues; why did you still want them?”

“Problems, yes, but only in terms of personality. As long as their loyalty is not in question, they are acceptable.”

Gonnia said, “Also, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing. We in Yatun need all kinds

of talents—sly, deceptive, ruthless.”

Gonnia, unlike Elsa’s purity of thought, felt most of these children had potential and were assets worth utilizing.

“Of course, they still need to be properly educated (or brainwashed).” Someday, spies, assassins, envoys—all would need people to fill those roles.

But these were all high-risk professions, and Bailuo certainly wouldn’t want those close to him involved in such matters.

However, if someone couldn’t even guarantee loyalty, Gonnia would likewise suggest to Bailuo that they be dealt with, “Yatun now has laws and regulations; we can’t just decide someone’s life or death-it’s only within His Majesty’s power to do so.”

“Yes.”

Elsa and Fiona nodded, both girls held great respect and admiration for Bailuo.

They intended to make Yatun an orderly civilization; naturally, some barbaric customs had to be gradually corrected.

“In fact, His Majesty’s decision to bring in these first slaves as an introductory population was made after consulting with several elders.

Choosing young boys and girls for their stronger adaptability and malleability.

Bailuo would take over a month to slowly transform and assimilate them.

As for loyalty, that really wasn’t an issue.

If they could accept the Miracle Power, it also indirectly indicated their sense of identification with and belonging to Yatun.

Loyal to Bailuo in the grand scheme of things, as long as they didn t overindulge in bad habits or break Yatun’s laws, Bailuo would give them the chance to become Yatun Commoners.

Yes, commoners, not citizens.

The population of Yatun Duchy is tiered into three levels: vassals, citizens, and commoners.

Vassals and citizens are not discriminated against in terms of honor.

Any citizen could become a vassal; their difference lies only in the fact that vassals possess the talent for governance and administration, while citizens do not.

Compared to citizens, who are absolutely loyal to Bailuo and can enjoy all of Yatun’s benefits, commoners are not regarded as insiders by Bailuo until they’ve passed certain tests.

” Gonnia should have already received the new populace.”

Meanwhile, in the castle of the Yatun Duchy, Bailuo sat in the administration hall, dealing with state affairs.

Standing by his side was Tree Elf Lu Anya; with Gonnia now assigned by Bailuo to handle foreign trade and exchanges, Lu Anya rose to become Bailuo’s aide- de-camp.

Yes, aide-de-camp, or secretary for short.

That would be the secretary who always has something to do.

“Are you worried?”

“There’s nothing to worry about,” Bailuo said, “With so many Tree Elves going, and two Regular Witches who know spells, even if they encounter a large number of Sea Beasts, they can easily repel them.”

“Then you…”

“I’m just thinking about how to choose once this group arrives.

Bailuo really hoped that among them there would be talented individuals:

“Talent and loyalty are like fish and bear’s paws.”

“Uh…”

Lu Anya didn’t understand Bailuo’s words, so Bailuo told her the story about how one can’t have both fish and bear’s paws.

“I see.”

Lu Anya: “Your Majesty, you really don’t need to worry about this.

“We plan the port just to settle those commoners,” Lu Anya said, “Besides, once we officially open to the outside, the surrounding islands can also be inhabited.”

“We, the People of Yatun, have so many delicious foods, vegetables, fruits, grains—a bounty of resources.”

“You said that whatever people do, it should always comply with the law of interest.”

Yatun offers food, drink, and shelter. Where else could you go if you left Yatun? After all, those who were sold into Yatun as slaves, if they truly had such abilities, wouldn’t have fallen into slavery in the first place.

“Hmm.”

Bailuo felt it was true, he was being overly concerned, “By the way, have there been any messages from Fulara and Little John?

After the establishment of Yatun Duchy, Uncle suggested to Bailuo to send someone to gather intelligence on the Pirates.

They couldn’t just sit and wait for their doom. Even if they didn’t launch an attack, they needed to proactively collect information; otherwise, to passively get hit was simply foolish.

Bailuo sent Fulara and John to Shipwreck Island, located to the west of Yatun Island.

That place was a hidden gathering spot for Pirates, not just the forces of Morgan that would stay there, but also Pirates under the command of several other Pirate Kings and independent Pirate Groups, who enjoyed their days in drunken stupor and decadent dreams.

“Grandfather said that Shipwreck Island is a very free and easy-going place. “That place belongs to the Western Pirate King ‘ Ogysail’,” Lu Anya said, “We have no direct contact with him, and there’s no conflict, so even Morgan doesn’t dare to act rashly on Shipwreck Island.”

The safety was guaranteed, which was also why Bailuo dared to dispatch people there.

“What about the island development, how is it going?

Previously, due to a shortage of people, Bailuo had only sent out a few teams to explore Yatun Island.

But now, with the gifts brought by the Mysterious Dragon, the strength of the Tree Elves had greatly increased.

So, Bailuo sent out 40 adult Tree Elves at once, which included many Tree Elf priestesses (Witches). They rode flying brooms, directly overseeing the land from the air, which greatly improved the efficiency of development.

In addition, there were some Rat Clan Fairies with mining talents, who mined many ores for Yatun.

Previously, because there were few Yatun Commoners and mining wasn’t safe, Bailuo chose not to touch that mine.

Mainly because they had no use for it.

The metals native to Yatun and the weapons left by Pirates, once smelted, had already met Yatun’s needs.

But now, as Yatun developed, the need for metals would increase.

Moreover, with the Rat Clan Fairies’ expertise in digging, Bailuo naturally delegated the work to them.

In addition, Lilith, having evolved to the second level, not only retained her healing ability but also gained a new ability.

How should I put it?

In simple terms, Lilith attained a blessing similar to ‘enchantment.’

Lilith could fix her Fairy Power into certain objects, initiating an internal cycle of Magic Power, eventually turning them into items akin to magical tools.
