Komer also sighed incessantly, with a look of a man deeply touched by the suffering of others.
To be honest, Komer hadn’t come up with a better way to deal with the current situation in Leon. Although he coveted the mineral-rich region, he thought it would be better to observe for a period of time when considering the direct hostility he might face from Homer.
It was just as well that the short-sighted Half-Beastmen were not yet willing to intervene, which gave him an opportunity to lie low.
Of course, it was necessary to place some pawns, and Mr. Dragumo seemed an appropriate candidate. However, it appeared that Mr. Dragumo was too concerned with the fate of his compatriots, which made Komer both moved and worried that it might lead Mr. Dragumo to refuse to collaborate with him.
Luckily, this Half-Beastman was not as inflexible as Komer had imagined. Although he very much hoped Komer would consider the entire Leon Region, Dragumo still preferred to prioritize the forces under his command after Komer made it clear that he could only offer limited support. He also agreed with Komer’s proposal that letting his compatriots accept the harsh reality and become more sober might be more advantageous for future cooperation.
After accepting Komer’s advice, the quietly arrived Dragumo left just as quietly.
No one knew what the lengthy private conversation that lasted over an hour between the Half-Beastman and Komer was about, but at the subsequent dividing of spoils meeting in Leon, Mr. Dragumo volunteered to station himself in the Mandu Region, which had little left to offer. This move unexpectedly won the hearts of his fellow Chiefs.
After all, the Mandu Region was the first to be occupied by the armed mob; nearly everything of value there had been looted long ago. Apart from some inactive mines, there were only the estates of some Nobles in Mandu Town, but in Leon, these possessions were of no value.
Almost everyone was still reveling in the intoxicating joy of having defeated the Homer Nobles and gained a new lease on life, and the new ruler mob leaders kept providing food and various supplies for free to show their benevolence to the liberated slaves and win their favor. The inherently crude and disorganized Half-Beastmen had not given any thought to what to do next; it seemed as if they were indulging in a mindset of living only for the present.
After returning to Leon, Dragumo promptly carried out a significant reduction in armed forces, cutting his ten thousand Armed slaves down to Three Thousand People in an instant. In his words to the outside world, the Leon Revolution had been successful, and now was the time to enjoy the fruits of victory.
While he continued to distribute supplies to the people, just like other Rulers in the region, the frequency and quantity were much lower. He also encouraged the freed slaves to go forward to the Caucasus to find a new life.
Now the entire Leon Region had come to a complete standstill, with no production; everything had to be imported from Muscat, but it required the exchange of various seized gold and treasures. Yet no one cared about these issues—they were for the Ruler to consider.
The Homer Nobles had left behind a considerable fortune, enough to support them for some time, and everyone was still infatuated with living off their dwindling resources. The worried Dragumo did not know how long this life could last, but he was acutely aware that the day would inevitably come.
