Chapter 464: Governor of Panar I

Chapter 464: Governor of Panar I

"I have been loyal to House Silver, all my life."

"I have worked for your father since, he was even younger than you and was his most trusted man, and after his untimely death, I have been working for you."

"I hope, looking at my serve, you will give me a greater opportunity to serve you, by making me governor of this city," said Hendriks.

I kept my expression neutral as he pleaded his case to become governor.

"I do not doubt your loyalty, Hendriks, but I have already chosen the governor," I replied to the man.

My voice is gentle, but firm. Leaving no space for the doubt.

His expression changed and disappointment appeared in his eyes, but the man had recovered it quickly.

There is no anger or visible rage. The old may feel some, but he is good enough to hide it. He understood that this was just one opportunity, many would come in the future.

If he reacted badly and displeased me. He could forget about getting those opportunities.

"May, I know, who it is, my lord?" he asked after a moment of silence.

"You will know when I announce it," I replied.

Less than five people know about the person, I had chosen. Even the person, I had chosen isn't aware of them becoming the Governor.

He left a few seconds later, and Hardt came.

After him, another and then another; soon all six of them have come and met me to plead their case to become governor.

"It had taken only half of the time," I said.

I had given an hour; ten minutes each, but I had finished in just twenty-six minutes.

I stayed in my office for half an hour more, before going out. The sun had set and there was a moon in the sky, but the city did not feel beautiful despite bathing in its light.

It's not a physical beauty, but a feeling. There is too much pain in the air.

As the carriage moved through the city; I saw the lines of people for the food, like the morning.

They will continue for a while till we make the places for the children and provide the jobs for the adults.

Arranging the latter won't be a problem.

There would be a lot of jobs in the most, that we would need to bring the people from the outside

Nearly 70% of the adults here are miners. I plan to open the mines in the next ten days. The other 30% could work in construction and other things.

The problem is the care of children. It's not an easy problem to solve.

I checked the things that came from the Greltheaven, in the past few hours, before going back to city hall, where I worked till midnight, before sleeping.

Hun!

Once again, I was late when I woke up. I quickly freshened up and showered before walking out.

"Any emergency?" I asked Shaun.

"No, but there are a lot of messages," he replied and handed me the stack.

I read through them one by one, before handing them back. He burned them before following behind me as I stepped out of the suite.

Click!

"What is the solution?" I asked after a few seconds of silence.

"We will start what you had thought. We will select a few areas of the city and work on them."

"As you feel more secure with finances and more people come, we will slowly expand the repair to the other areas." He replied, and it made me relieved.

"Its good. Look at all things carefully and give me a quotation, but first start with the wall."

"I need it fixed as soon as possible," I said to them, to which they smiled.

"We will start on it in a few hours. We have brought the men and required material, to last us for a day. The second batch had already left the city," replied Amellus.

I cannot stress the importance of the wall.

Without the wall, it would be hard for us to defend against the undead if attacked.

"Have you talked to General Stone and General Azalia, taken their opinion?" I asked. "Yes, we have discussed the things with them, they agree with our plan for the wall," replied Davidson

I already knew that; they had informed me earlier about it.

"I hope, you will be able to finish it quickly," I said at last. "We will and with your skill; the repaired wall will be better and more powerful," replied Amellus.

As I had said. People could sense it, especially like them. They are Lv. 30 and above and have classes sense these things easily.

They left while I focused on the work. I didn't walk out of my office, even when the sun went down.

"Lord Silver, Kelgir had fallen?" informed Shaun suddenly. I stopped immediately and sighed.

Kelgir is the second largest city in the Angeltar region and now it has been conquered by Edruin. They have been resting it, but now they couldn't.

"It is General Kalmazar, right?" I asked, and the man nodded.

There are three huge armies of Edruin attacking the empire. Kalmazar is the most aggressive of the three and also the most powerful.

It is not just Edruin capturing our territories.

There are Tabes, Yressor, and Geim; all of them have aggressively moved into the territory of the empire and captured more and more territories by the day.

"If they kept fighting among themselves; it won't take long before our enemies capture half of the empire," I said.

I am worried about it, but that danger is far from me. There is the Kingdom of Tabes, but Dustorn Fortress is handling it.

There had not more than a few small incursions which were easily dealt with.

Tabes didn't care too much about the wasteland. It is more interested in capturing the juicier territories. Only when they are done with that, they will turn their eyes toward us.

I didn't say anything further about that subject and kept working.

Click!

The door opened, and Lola walked inside. "Master Silver, they have gathered," she informed.

The important people have gathered. It is time, that I announced the Governor of Panar.

"It's time," I said and got up, activating Get Ready.

Immediately, the wrinkles and dirt from my clothes disappeared. The tiredness from my face lessened, and I looked like, I just came out of the shower.

I looked at myself in a small mirror on the wall and smiled before turning.

It's time I ask the question.
