Chapter 1092: Chapter 1079: Muria’s Troubles, Establishing the Queen Chapter 1092: Chapter 1079: Muria’s Troubles, Establishing the Queen “Before the spring plowing, end all wars.”

As Gai Nation’s army fiercely fought in the front, Muria, stationed at the major rear and in charge of food transportation, issued the war objective.

And after Muria set the objective, the battles at the front turned even more intense; almost all the soldiers understood what Muria meant by that objective.

If you can’t do it, I will!

The military of Gai Nation understood that if they could not meet their king’s requirements on time, then the king would personally take action. Had it been before, they might have been pleased to hear this news, but after Muria had intervened twice, they no longer felt the same.

Because once their king took action, all the glory of the victorious war would be attributed to the king, and all their fierce fighting would appear useless in the eyes of the commoners, merely an embellishment to the king’s glory.

In the eyes of other nations’ armies, the army of Gai Nation was just a group that could only fight with the wind in their favor. Such a critique was intolerable for any general with the slightest bit of self-respect, let alone the current army of Gai Nation.

Hence, the army of Gai Nation was extremely eager to prove themselves, and the war became even more fierce, increasing the casualty rate within their ranks. However, with this, the speed of their advancement greatly accelerated as well.

As Muria had nurtured a large number of powerful individuals for the army, with this war, they managed to push over the second country that had once attacked Gai Nation.

While their army flattened the second country, Muria had also personally handled and suppressed all ruling strata of the third country because this country knew it could not escape the destiny of being conquered while Gai Nation’s army attacked the second country.

Thus, they also took action, but were single-handedly stopped by Muria and then completely suppressed.

After this war, Muria ceased fighting and prepared to begin spring plowing, but the entire Ymir Plain had fallen into a brief tranquility because of Muria’s battle.

Because the outcome of annihilating three countries in one war was so astonishing that even Yas Country in its prime could not achieve this. Consequently, all countries on the Ymir Plain began frantically gathering everything related to Gai Nation.

Naturally, their focus was wholly on Muria because in the war that wiped out the three countries, two were personally erased by Muria.

The countries started extensively collecting data related to Muria, and when they learned of his current age, they were once again astonished because they had never seen such a young and yet so powerful king.

In the end, they concluded that Muria’s ability to annihilate three countries in one battle was all due to his power.

The reason for the destruction of the Three Kingdoms was entirely attributed to the remarkable power of Muria, which in turn, was attributed to the special method of Inheritance of the Gai King and Muria’s exceptional talent. They also unanimously believed that Muria’s power was not from his conventional military strength.

They all believed that if Muria indeed possessed such formidable power to annihilate a country single-handedly, he would definitely proceed to eradicate all their countries, making Gai Nation the sole overlord on the Ymir Plain.

But in reality, they underestimated the patience of Muria as an Eternal Life Being, as Gai Nation currently lacked the foundation for rapid expansion and annexation of nations, so Muria had only annihilated three countries in this battle.

As nations began frenziedly investigating everything about Muria, he commenced leading Gai Nation, which had expanded its territory fivefold, into a phase of recuperation and regrowth.

For Gai Nation, conquering three countries in one battle was akin to a snake swallowing an elephant. In short, Gai Nation had bitten off more than it could chew. This was the helplessness of a small nation with few people, and also Muria’s predicament.

He possessed military power far superior to the collective nations, yet he had to pause and wait for his country to develop slowly and catch up to his pace.

Muria ordered Gai Nation to enter a comprehensive state of ceasefire, which wasn’t merely about simple farming but reinstating the system implemented five years ago—repairing canals, digging reservoirs, and building roads.

In the occupied territories, besides doing these, they also had to abolish the local script and customs, promoting the culture of Gai Nation, and completely erasing the shadow of those three annihilated countries from the spirit.

“Learn from the past, and the future will not fail,” Muria muttered softly, “I only repair channels and build roads, not wonders. The laws I set, although strict, are not overly harsh, and the taxes are not too heavy, completely within what the people can bear. In this way, I refuse to believe that I could still fail.”

“Moreover, I have no eunuchs around me.” Saying this, Muria looked around. Every night, his vicinity turned ghostly, as many of the nobles and ministers he had transformed into Corpse Ghosts would come out to handle the day’s accumulated national affairs.

“Moreover, I am immortal,” Muria extended his hand, clenched a fist, and could guarantee he would keep living until he unified this world.

Of course, even though he was eternal, he did not intend to stay in this world forever, and when he dealt with the source of chaos and could obtain source power from the world, he would leave with Michaela. By then, he would need a successor.

“The heir…” Thinking about the issue of the heir, Muria rubbed his brow helplessly.

“Arnold, have you thought it through? Under your rule, the Gai Nation has grown stronger day by day, becoming more prosperous than ever before, and now that it’s a time of truce, with me and the ministers helping you manage the state affairs, you don’t need to worry about extra matters. Shouldn’t you now consider your own affairs?”

“My affairs? I have nothing to think about.”

“Don’t be willful, I know you are powerful now and have high standards, but that’s not a reason for you not to choose a spouse. Your marriage is also a major issue for the survival of this country.”

Ferdinand appeared within a group of Black Mist and then gazed at his son sternly. This was not the first time he had come to urge him over this matter.

It was only recently that he discovered his son actually despised marriage and was very resistant to establishing a queen. This discovery had shocked Ferdinand at the time.

For a country, the most important person is the king, and the second most important is the king’s spouse, the queen.

When Muria initially ascended to the throne, since he was still young, no minister suggested establishing a queen, but after five years of cultivation and after wiping out three countries, ministers suggested he establish a queen.

To such a request, Muria naturally refused outright on the spot and even ordered everyone not to mention it again.

But how could Muria possibly stop people from talking about it? In the court, time and again, as if fearless, people requested Muria to accept a queen.

And by Muria’s side, Ferdinand kept nagging; as a father, he became extremely anxious when he found his son seemed to have no interest in women.

As a king, not establishing a queen or taking concubines, what is that? Not producing an heir, who will inherit his throne in the future?

“I understand, but now is not the time.” Seeing his father pop up again to nudge him, a helpless look appeared on Muria’s face.

“If now is not the time, then when will it be? Muria, I ask you, even if you conquer vast territories, what use is it if you have no heir to inherit them? Hmm, do you plan to pass all your hard-earned achievements to your brothers and nephews? Would you be content with that?”

“Of course not,” hearing Ferdinand’s words, Muria’s headache worsened, “Don’t worry, I will establish a queen in the future, but now really isn’t the time.”

In the previous worlds he’d arrived in without supervision, Muria never engaged in frivolous affairs; in this world, with Mikaer following him as well, he was even less likely to mess around.

If he really dared to respond to the increasingly powerful calls to establish a queen, then once he reached a certain point and collided with Mikaer, well, the image was too beautiful; Muria dared not even imagine what would happen then.

And Ferdinand, clearly taking Muria’s words as an excuse, in his eyes, Muria simply did not want to establish a queen or take concubines, which could also be interpreted as his son having no interest in women.

“Do you like the same gender?” After pondering for a moment, Ferdinand asked tentatively.

“Of course not, what nonsense are you talking about?” Hearing his father’s words, Muria’s expression immediately darkened, what nonsense.

“If you don’t like the same gender, then why are you so resistant to establishing a queen?” Ferdinand stroked his chin, his eyes showing contemplation as he sized up Muria, then shook his head, “At your current level, your body is definitely fine.”

“Can you leave? I still have matters to attend to right now, don’t disturb me.” Hearing Ferdinand’s words, Muria’s expression grew even darker.

“What matters could you possibly have? Haven’t they all been handled by them?” Ferdinand pointed around the hall at the Corpse Ghosts, who were bowing their heads and dealing with state affairs.

“…” Muria didn’t want to speak anymore.

“You can’t shake me off today without giving me a reason.” Ferdinand stared at Muria.

“I want to meet the right person at the right time, and then spend the rest of my life with them.” Muria began to make up stories, he was particularly eager to find Mikaer. If he could find her, the issue of establishing a queen could be resolved.

“You’re a king and yet you crave this useless thing called romance.” Hearing Muria’s answer, an incredulous look appeared on Ferdinand’s face.
