Chapter 284 I Can't Fulfill Your Request

Maybe it was because people only appreciate things after losing it.

Norra had never looked at the sky before, nor had she realised how beautiful it was because she had so many things that caught her attention. But after coming to this world, where fog covered everywhere, and although she was just simply looking at the night sky, it looked very beautiful.

Before, Norra had never noticed how delicious cake was because there were so many other dishes around her. But after coming to this world and feeling the torment of hunger, she realised that a cake was enough to make her happy.

Norra finished eating, and she felt very full, but looking at the cakes on the plate, she felt like eating again. She decided to put these cakes in the system's space bag so that she could eat them later when she was hungry.

Suddenly, Norra discovered a very important problem when she saw the bulletin board in front of her.

[Ding! You cannot put items from this world into the system's space pocket.]

"Items of this world?" Norra frowned. She held the block of pastry in her hand and looked at it closely, but she still did not see any problems.

"Could it be that items from this world cannot be placed in the system's space pocket?"

Norra tried to put other things into the systems space pocket, such as tables, chairs, beds… However, no matter how hard Norra tried, it was impossible to put those items into the system space pocket.

And of course, the reason was still the same, as the system repeatedly displayed the same message.

Norra began to worry, after all, she thought that she would go to the Void Lord's territory, survey it and then bring food to the group of women that Tyne was managing.

But now it was different, because food could not be placed in the space bag, which also meant that she could not use the system to deliver food to Tyne.

Norra struggled with this problem and she still could not find a solution. Finally, she decided to go to sleep, and decided that tomorrow morning she would meet the Void Lord to find a solution.

As Norra lay on the bed, she felt that it was the first time she felt comfortable lying on a bed like this.

A feeling of warmth and security enveloped her entire mind, which made her worries disappear, and she fell asleep.

…

The next morning, Hikaru opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. On the bed were Selvih, Anno, Tsuraguki, and Saraya.

Hikaru sighed. In fact, he didn't sleep at all yesterday. After talking to Shala, Hikaru returned to his room to find Tsuraguki waiting for him.

Naturally, her face was filled with displeasure at that time because Tsuraguki knew that Selvih, Anno, and Saraya had 'fun' with him without her.

After that, Tsuraguki joined in the fun, and the four women continued to suck his milk until morning. Hikaru felt that if he didn't have a skill that could give him unlimited stamina, he would probably be dead.

Hikaru kissed their foreheads, then got up from the bed and went to the study. He looked at his watch, it was now past 7 o'clock, meaning he had 'fun' with them from 11pm last night until almost 6am this morning.

Of course, Hikaru didn't feel tired, on the contrary, right now he felt extremely alert. He was just sitting at his desk when there was a knock on the door.

"Master, it's me, Shala."

Hikaru: "..."

He felt that Shala did not rest in the evening. He clearly remembered that last night at 9 pm, Shala had just come to him to discuss the information about the Harpy clan.

It was only 7 a.m. now, and she was already looking for him. That's why Hikaru suspected that Shala didn't sleep but worked from last night until this morning.

"Come in!" Hikaru said.

Shala entered, and immediately after, she smiled and said, "Good morning, Master."

Hikaru nodded and said, "Didn't you sleep? How come you came to see me so soon? Is there something important?"

Shala smiled and said, "Master, I have already rested. Around 12 o'clock I went to bed, and at 4 am I woke up."

Hikaru frowned: "You only slept for about 4 hours? Are you fit enough to work?"

Shala smiled upon hearing that. It was the first time she had seen a king so concerned about his subordinates. Her heart felt very warm as she felt her master's concern.

"Master, don't worry. Normally, when going on an adventure with my father, it's normal that sometimes I don't sleep for three or four days."

"That's why every day there is time for a lunch break, and being able to sleep well at night is a wonderful thing for me."

Hikaru nodded and said: "Although I know your physique is very good, you are just an ordinary person, so you should pay attention to your health. Don't try too hard, do you understand?"

"Sometimes, you should also live for yourself, like finding someone you love or marrying someone."

Shala felt warmth when she heard that, she suddenly wanted to tease Hikaru: "Master, you treat me so well that I can't love anyone anymore, you have to take responsibility."

Hikaru: "..."

"Hahahaha… sorry, master, I was just teasing you a little."

Hikaru sighed: "Haizzz, next time I won't let you do that."

Shala was happy inside, as if she had just found a new world. Never before had she seen a subordinate who was able to tease their master like this.

She thought that perhaps only her master could be such a warm person in this world.

"So… are you looking for me so early because of the harpies?"

Shala shook her head and said: "No, master, the harpies are just one reason, last night I met someone..."

Shala recounted what she and Norra had discussed about.

Hikaru fell into deep thought after hearing that, perhaps the Norra Shala mentioned was a player. However, he was also a bit interested because he didn't think that one player would want to save so many other players.

Is she someone who loves righteousness? He thought.

Shala now added: "Master, she also said that she can help our domain have a complete set of laws and make all the activities in the territory take place according to a certain rule."

Hikaru frowned upon hearing that. He guessed that the girl named Norra was probably a policeman or a lawyer. Only these two types of occupations were capable of understanding and drafting legal documents.

Hikaru thought for a long moment, then said, "Then… bring her here. I want to talk to her."

Shala bowed respectfully: "Yes, master."

…

While waiting for Shala, Hikaru used his teleportation skill to travel to the other construction sites. The special buildings were still under construction, such as the Administrative Hall, Healing Hall, Guild Hall, and Quest Hall.

Although he had not yet found personnel for the special projects, seeing the work gradually being completed made him feel happy.

Darnag was not in the territory because he was looking for a suitable place to build the greenhouse. Anyway, it was a very important project, so Darnag put all his heart into it.

Hikaru teleported to the temporary residential area and floated in the air. Of course, no one could see him due to the Void Cloak's effect.

After teleporting, he would enter an invisible state, so no one could see or feel him.

Below, there were only a few players moving around, however, Hikaru could tell that they were all tired and lifeless.

Of course, he knew why. After all, the players who came to his territory were the players who lost their territory, so they had nowhere to go.

Therefore, his domain was a place that gave them a safe and comfortable place to live.

As for strong and active players who wanted to operate independently or build their own territory, they also didn't want to leave their territory for his.

At this point, Hikaru realised that the players weren't as omnipotent as he thought. So he had a little expectation of what the mixed-blooded people would be like after coming to this place.

Will they be like the players in his domain, or will they be better?

After that, Hikaru returned to his office with many thoughts in his heart. Hikaru now felt that he was no longer free because he had just realised that there were many problems that needed to be solved.

The first was the matter of territorial activities. He could not feed a few thousand or more than 10,000 people in his territory who did not contribute to it..

Hikaru needed to create jobs that generate income for them so that the territory could enter into an operational process.

But how would he create the jobs?

This was a puzzling problem. Solving the problems of jobs was a very huge problem that could not even be solved on earth.

If there is supply, there would be demand.

But what were the people's needs? What could he offer?

Besides, what could the mixed-bloods do after coming to his territory?

These questions gave him a headache.

A moment later, suddenly there was a knock on the door, and from outside came Shala's voice: "Master, I brought Norra."

"Okay, come in!"

Then, Shala pushed open the door, followed by Norra.

Hikaru looked at Norra and knew that she was also a beautiful girl, but of course she couldn't be as beautiful as his women.

If he were to score her, he would give her about 85 - 87 points on the beauty scale. If her beauty wasn't above 90, she wouldn't be affected by the [Taming] skill's effect, so Hikaru didn't have to worry about her having weird feelings towards him.

Hikaru stared at Norra, making her feel a little embarrassed, after all, this was her first time facing someone of such a high rank.

But before, Norra worked as a police officer, and she had faced many criminals, so she was able to control her emotions quickly.

Norra hastily bowed: "This is the first time we are meeting, I am Norra, a player."

Norra said that because she thought that the Void Lord was the NPC of the system.

Hikaru, of course, understood why Norra would say that she was a player. He said, "Norra, I have heard from Shala about you."

"But I want to say frankly, I will not allow any unidentified elements to enter the administration of this territory, therefore, I cannot fulfill your request."
