"Now that we have enough territory, I thought about officially announcing our establishment as a kingdom,"
It wasn't a crazy idea for anyone in the room right now, because they had enough resources and land to be called like that.
"Will people really like that?" Lyra always thought about inside jobs like management and stuff, so she didn't even question about what would happen with another kingdom.
Velian looked at her seriously while questioning her.
"Us or their former corrupted nobles? Which one is better? Besides, I have their royal family under my control,"
Sariya already knew about that, so it didn't even surprise her at this point. In her eyes, it might be the most normal thing Velian had ever done.
"So are we going to ally with other kingdoms too? But I don't think, they will let us overtake a main kingdom like this," Worried about the status quo, Sariya muttered.
Even though she knew about Velian's power and ability to completely defeat a whole kingdom, she didn't want their people to be entangled in a never-ending war.
"No, we will form some relationships, but I don't have any expectations,"
She knew what those words meant.
'Is he going to conquer this land? Nobody has ever done it, not even the Almighty empire'
Sariya thought in her mind and looked at Velian's face.
"It might be possible," While thinking about possibilities, she muttered unconsciously.
"What is?"
"Nothing! So when are we going to hold this banquet?"
Daphnia settlers in her chair comfortably and listened to the conversation between her son and Sariya with a curious face.
"They look like son and mother, Velian really doesn't mind older women like us," Unable to realise her own charms, Daphnia muttered thinking she was just an older woman in her thirties.
"Yes, Banquet of Keller, we are going to announce the birth of a new royal bloodline and new noble families," Everyone felt rather excited hearing this idea.
In what era can they even witness one thing so grand as this? And Sariya was confident that Keller's royal bloodline will be one of the greatest thanks to their looks and skills.
"Are you going to occupy the castle of the Rapidclaw? Veli," Daphnia questioned.
If there's a king then he should have a castle otherwise he will just be another adventure, in Velian's case the most suitable place was either their old village or the newly conquered castle.
But if he occupied his former village then that means, Asumiko would lose her land so the obvious option was the Rapidclaw castle.
"Yes, mother," Velian quickly answered her showing, he had already decided everything and made plans.
"You, Both sisters and my other girls are going to come with me, we can't invade other people's houses like this every day," Looking at Sariya with a smile, Velian said but Daphnia knew he had hidden intentions behind it.
"Ehhhh~ sure, we can move," Daphnia also agreed with and chuckled under her breath seeing Sariya's reaction.
"Sariya, you can manage here right?" Velian quickly looked at her and questioned but, he didn't get any answers.
"Sariya...?"
"Ohhhh~ I'm sorry, of course, you're moving out, now that you're a family,"
The disappointment in her voice was rather apparent to Velian. She didn't know that she was feeling sad about this news.
Sariya thought she was worried about her daughter but deep down, she wanted Velian to stay with her.
"Elda will be sad," She muttered hoping, he wouldn't pick up her line but Velian didn't want to let this golden opportunity go to waste.
So he said the legendary line getting close to her ear in a seducing voice.
"Won't you be sad, If I'm gone?" Daphnia and Lyra who were observing this knew what was happening. But others thought they were just whispering something secretive.
Sariya blushed hearing his words but, she quickly regained her composite and went back to their main subject.
"When are you going to hold this banquet? I might be able to recommend some people for the new noble positions,"
Sariya had some recommendations in mind. She wanted fewer troublemakers and more hard workers this time those who won't leech off their citizens.
"You can give me their names, I will do a background search and appoint them if they are suitable,"
Velian accepted her proposal because finding people for the baron and count positions was a hard task for him.
"Three weeks from today, we are going to hold this banquet in the main castle and I want to send letters to the other two kingdoms, but with empire-" Velian paused for a minute and looked at Daphnia, who smiled at him.
"We can't discuss peace with the empire, they are tyrants,"
It was hypocritical for Velian to call them tyrants when he was using all these innocent citizens but, unlike in the empire, both side benefits from Nikol's hard work making it a win-win situation for both parties.
"Veli, won't the empire attack us? We have a lot of prisoners and the emperor himself locked up," Lyra questioned.
She didn't want anyone bothering her brother's plan, so she decided to exterminate anyone who is against it.
"They will and all the more reason to collect all the people against the empire and show we are the only group that can lead them to victory,"
The dinner table was lively after the meeting, as everyone started to gobble their food including Velian.
Most of them were improved versions of existing foods in this world, so he was pretty sure these food recipes are not normal.
pαпdα-ňᴏνê|·сóМ "Sariya, did you find a man yet? Since you're noble now, you have to pass your bloodline, or are you going to hand it all to Elda?" Daphnia questioned hoping her answer would be negative.
She didn't want to see anyone bothering her son's love life, especially another man.
"Don't be ridiculous, Daphnia," Sariya said with a chuckling smile.
"I won't marry again, I'm done with men, there might be some good people out there, but my only goal is to develop this land and take care of my daughter," Her words were concerning for the management people in the territory because they needed an heir to make things right.
"Is that so? I thought you already had someone else in your mind," Sariya picked up the weird tone in Daphnia's voice and she knew something was wrong.
Then only she realised who she was talking about.
