Chapter 178: Conversation Before Shore
After looking at the system things just last night, I guessed that we were only a day before shore after weeks of being on the ocean. I was glad that I was close to right with my guess, and the shore was quickly coming into sight. The sight of land was one to behold after spending a couple of weeks on the ocean. The weather was cloudy, and I felt like a storm was over my heart. I had so much to do coming up, and I had a Lich in tow now to keep an eye on. It would be a tough sell, but I could only think a Necromancer would be useful in the coming war.
On the shore that quickly was coming into sight, I saw a gathering to welcome me back. in the meanwhile, the sailors helped the boat along on oars. The bunny-kin sailors were working bringing in the boat, and I watched as the share got closer. Behind me, Rose was there with Queen Mira. My other women were either meditating or getting their things together. I was lost in thought as my mini vacation came to an end. In my possession was an economic agreement that would probably pay for the war if used properly. The bunny-kin were a large population, and with population eventually came prosperity with the exploration of resources.
I wanted to use these 'human resources properly, and I had a nation that couldn't utilize them properly. I wanted to change this, but I didn't have the power. Slowly that would change, and I turned to Rose. "Rose, before we hit the shore, I want you to start gathering things for me," I said to her and saw both Queen Mira and Rose look at me.
"What is it?" Rose asked, her expression turning serious.
"Things are going to change in the coming days, and the economy will change slowly over to a warfighting one. Now that doesn't mean that there will not be a civilian market; just that it will be much smaller than before. The agreement in my hand changes things, though. Not many know this though at this point in time. That means we will have an opening to gather businesses and talent that otherwise wouldn't be for sale. In order to make the plans I need to be done in the future, we need to gather common talent and make them loyal. While we are also doing that, we need to make a lot of gold." I said, my expression showing that I wasn't looking at her but in the future, as I thought of things, "I want to build a city from the ground up, and we will be spending gold as if it never even entered our hands. I want to start purchasing and taking land in the north by opening the Elven forest as the main point. Not many tribes should be there, but if we can recruit or move them would be for the best. I don't want to make a city like Silvermoon city or whatever the real name is called. I want to build a city that readily accepts all races. That will be our starting point in the north, and while I am fighting on the war front, I want you gathering talent for me, Rose." I told her and looked her in the eyes. "Can you try that for me?" I asked her.
Rose chuckled softly and looked in the distance. "You brought me here from the Elven forest. Helped me enslave my sissy husband, who is probably below deck sucking off some random Sailor. You freed me from my plight and allowed me to follow my dreams and try to own the world's largest company and try my best against the best business minds." She looked at me with a sly smile, "You are asking me to follow my dream and help you follow yours?" Rose asked, "Sure, I lost a bit of money in the Demon lands, although I am still making some of it back even now. You ask too little of me. Of course, I will try," She finished as if it was apparent.
"What are you ultimately trying, Chelsea?" Queen Mira asked. "Making a City that accepts all races is pretty easy except for building the City and populating its part. Even the Empire allows all races inside of them, even with prejudice. Still, this is normal as no nation on this continent can let go of talents just because they are of a different race. Slave or no slave, even the Demon Lands follow this."
"You make a good point, but I will be making the rules. Over time there are things I plan to do, some of which need to be routed into the culture, not the law. Some things, if you say them and make them the law, then they become problems. instead, you have to make a culture and thought process that enables those things to be 'frowned upon'; when that happens, they become almost laws that people are allowed to break even if it is frowned upon." I told her, "Essentially, I need to shape a culture and thought process, and in order to do that, I need a place that I control with my own power and a people that begin thinking in a direction that I want. More or less, I will be trying to do something very complicated by manipulating the population into a thought pattern and culture that I want with their own things mixed in. it is hard for me to explain further and would take more time than we have and plus a little more time." I smirked as if it was the truth. "Basically, I need to create a culture and shape the thoughts of the people living in this City, and to do that, I need to own and control that City with the power to keep it and control it. Once a time has passed, and I have shaped the thoughts of a large population, then I will no longer need to control it, and it will spread on its own." I chuckled, "My plan is not even in the planning stages, Mira." I told her, "It is in its infancy, and I don't even have the start of a foundation made. This is a lifelong goal that I will never stop working toward if I am to make it happen."
Mira and Rose were looking at me with weird expressions, and I turned and watched the galley slowly get closer to the shore. The silence between us was broken with a beat of the drum as someone was helping the Sailors pace their rowing, and the shore was getting close. I watched as the boat would soon come to the docks, and I noticed that there was a couple of silver-haired bunny-kin there of my family. There was a serious amount of them, too, and I sighed, "Looks like I might be in for a family reunion when I get back." I commented.
"What do you mean?" Queen Mira said, stepping up, "There are quite a few bunny-kin waiting on the docks, but most are sailors or deck hands ready to help us back on shore."
I chuckled, and Rose chuckled along with me, and Mira looked at us. "It seems you didn't do your research about the Bunny-kin Queen Mira," Rose commented, and Mira raised an eyebrow at her, and she shrugged. "The main reason that Chelsea is allowed to bring her group of women," She said, motioning to the cabin then herself, "Is because of her family's position in the hierarchy of the Silvermoon tower. In fact, the City here is the Bunny-kin's tribal land and mostly doesn't allow other races outside embassies to reside here. I believe the reason comes from a moment in history where the Bunny-kin were being mass murdered by many races but mostly humans after freeing themselves. Many were scared of the bunny-kin need to," She looked at me and directly continued, "Reproduce." I couldn't help but nod at that, "That led to the bunny-kin for a period of time after striking a deal for the protection of the Dragon-kin to seal themselves off for almost a hundred years, where the Bunny-kin began to worship the strong and began to reproduce. The Silvermoon tower and the founder of the tower from the Loveknot family were the main talents at the time that every bunny-kin wanted a piece of. From there, the Silvermoon tower, which was made using the last of the resources the bunny-kin stole from their captors, was what they built their City around and looked for internally. With a rising talent and population increase, the bunny-kin eventually began to spread but not without one family being revered. The Loveknot family has always been the leader of their Elder council. They are a family with the unique characteristic of being Silver-haired. Their numbers are not as large as most families and among the people are still very influential."
"Which means that there is a bunch of family on the docks that I have no idea who they are and why they are waiting for me. Other than my mother and now Christina, I know basically none of them. Oh, there is Anthoney which we left in the kingdom. Speaking of Christina," I said, turning to Rose, "I haven't seen her."
Suddenly a shadow began to appear, and I looked down, feeling dark mana moving, and Christina came out of my shadow slowly with a serious expression. "Unlike you, I have been meditating, and following an enlightenment, I feel to strive forward." She looked down at my crotch, then back up, "It is too bad as I would have enjoyed some of your nightly activities." Her cold expression remained, and she turned to look to the shore. "Ah, Father is here to greet us as well," She looked a little lost. "Must be here to greet Queen Mira if she decided to come."
"Makes sense. I never sent ahead the draft of the agreement. I wonder what the reaction will be." I said and grinned as I rested on the railing of the galley as it got ever closer to the shore. "Not much time to talk anymore," I finished as I saw that was closing in on the dock. "Dad will be able to hear us now. Oh, and be careful of my Mother, Mira. Don't let her rope you in," I commented.
Suddenly I saw my mother on the docks as we closed in, and I could feel her glare. Seconds later, a bunch of sailors came onto deck sweating and began to prepare for final arrival, and I sighed. "Vacation over," I said, and I saw Taylor coming up with a bright smile.
"Land again," Taylor sighed, stepped back, and the sailors finished bringing the boat into the docks.
"Things are about to get hectic again," I sighed as the boat slowly floated into the spot, and the gangplank came down.
It was time to talk to family and the elders.
