[Territory Expansion Alert! Governor’s District of Transia gains a new administrative unit "Ancestor Woods," incorporating 146 settlements of citizens!]

Population of incorporated citizens numbers 72,454.

Alert!

Ancestor Woods is a special administrative unit, with a completely different management model from the basic administrative units of Transia. It is suggested that a corresponding manager be appointed as soon as possible.

The current candidates for manager are...]

Murphy didn’t bother to read on.

The notification of the seventy-four thousand citizens was enough to make him realize what a rich gift Little Sheron had just given him.

This meant that Murphy instantly had an additional 724 player slots, which would spare him from worrying about the distribution of test slots for quite a while to come.

The Vampire felt a deep satisfaction and joy from within, a joy second only to his experiences of overcoming Salockdale with the players and confessing to Cui Si without being rejected. Murphy reflected on how today was his lucky day when, without any anticipation, fate had rewarded him handsomely.

Murphy took a deep breath. He looked at the smiling Little Sheron before him, and to her surprise, he handed the register back to her.

The Vampire Governor said softly,

"For many years, this woodland has been protected by the Xikemeier Family, and the Highlanders have already grown accustomed to living under your leadership.

Although I claim dominion over all of Transia, I have no intention to disrupt your simple but content way of life.

Managing Highlanders is different from managing other people, and you are the most suitable manager I could find.

Therefore, Countess Ellen of the Xikemeier Family, I hereby appoint you as ’Mountain People Leader’ in my capacity as Governor of Transia, and ask you to continue fulfilling the Xikemeier Family’s responsibilities and obligations to the Ancestor Woods.

Whatever you need to improve the lives of your citizens, you may apply to Crimson Castle, and we will strive to accommodate."

"Wow! You are overly generous when it comes to distributing power. I’ve heard more than once that all you desire is victory, and beyond that, anything goes.

It sounded exaggerated at first, but I didn’t expect it to be true," Little Sheron commented.

"If I had known that, I wouldn’t have needed to earnestly persuade those Elders."

"No, it’s still different."

Murphy laughed, noting the relieved posture of those Highlander elders surrounding them when he returned the register to Ellen.

These unique tribes really did not fit in with the outside world, not just because managers would have a headache trying to settle them into a new life, but also because the Highlanders themselves resisted changes from the outside.

At least for now, the development of Transia was nowhere near attractive enough to pull these tradition-following people away from their homeland.

"The Saxon Region, already occupied by the Golden Flower Kingdom, has many Highlanders who are displaced."

Murphy said to Little Sheron,

"During the Ten Year War, there were three Highlander conflicts. King Louis’s yearning for rule forced many innocents to be driven far from their homes, and since Xike Woodland connects with the woodlands of Saxon, if possible, Little Sheron, I hope your Highlander elders can invite more homeless individuals to live in Transia.

I promise you, whether or not they wish to dwell in the woods, I will grant them official status and protection from Crimson Castle."

"That’s a bit difficult, especially with the Black Disaster looming."

Ellen replied with some difficulty,

"Highlanders are stubborn but not foolish; no one will come to settle in Transia, which will surely become the front line of the war, at this time.

But if we can withstand the assault of the Jackal and Wolf People, your promise will become very attractive to those poor refugees of the Saxon Region, and I could persuade the elders to send people across the border to recruit more of our kin.

After all, Highlanders cannot detach themselves from their woodland life, and more than a third of the woodlands in the Saxon Region have been destroyed. But if they really come, you’ll suddenly have over a hundred thousand more mouths to feed. Are you really able to support so many people?"

"That is my concern to address," Murphy replied.

Murphy placed his hand on Count Shuren’s shoulder, looking around the woodlands that brought him this surprise, and said,

"As for population, at this stage, the more, the merrier."

He planned to discuss the Highlander population with Ellen further, but seconds later, another alert disrupted Murphy’s thoughts, this time coming from the small eastern city of Bataxin:

[Population Expansion Alert! The administrative unit Bataxin City under the Governor’s District of Transia has incorporated 6,519 new citizens!]

"Eh!"

Murphy blinked in surprise,

"The Armed Blood Servants repatriated from Nordtoff Kingdom have already entered my territory, ha, another 65 slots. Today is truly a double celebration, great! Life has pounded me again and again until I’ve become resilient and tough, but after abusing me countless times, fate, that bitch, finally knows how to cherish me.

This is how I should be rewarded!

Reward me fiercely!"
