I'm the King Of Technology Chapter 802 - Treason!

Chapter 802 - Treason!

"Good morning brother Landon."
(^_^)
Lucia strolled into Landon's office merrily and sat down on the couch.
Her brothers of course were right behind her.
"Brother Landon.
Words can never express our gratitude towards you and your family for taking care of us so well.
I have to say, your home (empire) is very lovely and warm."
"Thank you," Landon said with a broad smile on his face.
Seeing them comfortable and happy, also made him calm and pleased as well.
After all, they were the people that the system had asked him to take care of.
So their emotions were linked to his mission.
Is, it would make things easier when signing the treaty in future.
This was what many would call, planning ahead.
Landon took a sip from his coffee calmly.
"You all said that you wanted to know more about the temple of Adonis right?
Well then, I'll give you all a detailed rundown of who they are and what they stand for." Landon said sternly, as he began talking about the temple.
Everyone's expression turned cold the more Landon spoke.
Dammit!
What sort of beasts were these people?
Everything about their deeds and beliefs made their hearts icy.
Andrew gripped his chair cushion angrily.
These people had to be stopped once and for all.
"Brother Landon, thank you for agreeing to our request."
"Hey, enough with the thanking alright?
I'm already your brother, so how can I watch you all suffer without extending a helping hand?
Don't worry, we'll get to Zalipnia before March as scheduled."
Everyone looked at Landon warmly.
"Thank you, brother!"
.
One should know that typically, even if they left now on a regular ship, they would arrive sometime in March of next year.
But Landon had promised them that they would travel on January 5th and arrive around mid-February, which was earlier than they anticipated.
It all sounded miraculous to them.
But after seeing everything within Baymard, they firmly believed it to be true.
Additionally, it wasn't advisable for them to travel with so many injuries as they could meet pirates and other dangers out there.
More still, they had to be in fighting condition for the battle ahead when they got back home.
So Landon's plan of letting them recuperate and travel in January was the best option.
Seeing that their worries had faded a bit, Landon began discussing the Zalipnian treaty with them.
Of course, none of them could sign it since the system required it to be their father, the current ruler of Zalipnia.
But he wanted them to see the benefits of it all.
Plus, wouldn't it be good if they also got transport sh.i.p.s that took them to and fro Zalipnia?
From education to crime, agriculture and whatnot, they had a lot to benefit from the treaty.
More than ever, he would be pleased to welcome them to the U.N (United Nations) team.
All 4 discussed for a bit before calling it quits.
With the Zalipnians properly settled, Landon once again focused on Baymard's development.
And while all this was going on... Far away from here, troubles continued to crew one by one.
.
--The Capital City, Arcadina--
.
In a very spacious office, William was currently having a meeting with a few of his men.
As expected, nothing ever went as smoothly as ge planned.
Of course, he was prepared for whatever troubles were ahead.
He frowned and tapped his fingers on the table thoughtfully: "Reddit, have the letters been written and stamped yet?"
"Your majesty, it has been done."
"Good!
Bring them to my office later in the day."
William thought about the letters and secretly sighed from relief.
A few days back, Landon had visited him once again and had spoken about this weather thing with him.
He planned to slowly write the letters inviting those on the list to go to Baymard.
But Landon literally held him at sword-point, hurrying him up to begin writing the letters.
The list was so long because Arcadina had over 30,000 cities, towns and villages.
At least one person from all cities and some towns would be invited.
And at most 10 people from a single place were invited as well.
Just from a single glance, William knew that there were at least 40,000 people on the list.
So within these few days, he got 200 people to write these letters, stamp them with the royal seal, and cross-check it, making sure that all names on that list had letters.
Landon told him that tomorrow night, he would come and pick the letters up.
So everything needed to be ready before then.
William knew that this project was a world-changing one.
Even the royal astronomer couldn't sit still.
Additionally, when Landon said that all empires would be involved, there was no way that William wouldn't participate in it.
As Landon had said, this was a historical moment and his name would once again be added into the history books.
So of course he was willing to participate.
.
"Your majesty, we'll send everything to your office right away."
"Good.
And don't forget to send the list back as well, Reddit."
"Yes your majesty"
William nodded and turned his attention towards another person.
"Collins, how far have you all gone in taking care of that matter?"
"Replying to his majesty, as planned, we have set up an office just near the palace for human rights.
And as it stands we have gotten hundreds, if not thousands of reports, thanks, and complaints already.
Many slaves are currently registering their new identities as citizens.
Some have been successful, while others haven't because many nobles don't want to release their slaves or pay them.
They're insinuating that we are partial to the slaves.
And are requesting that we buy them back instead if we truly want them to be free.
Your majesty, they've even gone as far as secretly electing another King to usurp the throne."
'Bam!'
Reddit slapped the table hard in fury.
How dare they?
This was mutiny!
The air turned frosty, as everyone was in rage
But unlike the rest, William didn't show any signs of shock or disbelief.
Rather, he chuckled coldly.
.
"Oh?
So it's treason, aye?
How bold!
Heheheheheh.
I already knew of their plans.
I heard that they called me a paper Hangol, and even insinuated that it was by luck that I could capture Alec and become ruler.
Heh...only a fool will take a Bear's meekness for weakness.
That I'm kind to the less privileged, doesn't make me weak!
But since they want to play so much, then who am I to disappoint?
Hahahhahahahaha!
Things are really getting interesting"
