Chapter 165: There Are Always Troublesome People

  Feeling the enhanced body digesting food at an incredible speed, verting it rapidly into energy that surged through his limbs and bones.

  Matthew had to admit, the abilities of a pure human body alone would struggle to achieve this effect.

  Matthew didn’t know what methods his "mother" and the Ser family had used or how much they had spent to create a "genius" like him.

  But ohing was certain: the ability to manipute bloodline power had existed for a long time.

  And it had signifitly tributed to the growth and development of humanity.

  "It’s quite simir to my idea of promoting specializations and training skills!"

  However, they did it for the sake of the family and legacy.

  Matthew did it to accumute power to the fullest extent!

  Time waits for no one!

  After satisfying his hunger, Matthew pced the bean-mung Yaya on his shoulder and quickly sorted out his thoughts.

  He reviewed all the pns and arras he had made sining to Bay Territory, paring them to his thoughts and iions.

  Soon, Matthew found several discrepancies and issues.

  There were problems with the military arras.

  The sele of soldiers had been carefully handled.

  But the training and ideological education of the soldiers had remained superficial, never digging deeper.

  Even though what Matthew had done far surpassed other lords and fas,

  It still wasn’t in lih his expectations.

  He had seen invincible armies and withe dee of forces that had once been unstoppable but became pt and decayed over time.

  There were many strategies he hadn’t implemented yet…

  It had to be the influence of Tai Ji.

  The goddess only cared about soldiers killing or being killed ier numbers, as quickly as possible!

  There were signifit issues with the civil arras.

  Too much freedom!

  The househistration system had only been touched upon briefly, without deeper statistid iigation, leaving room for cultists and spies.

  In this world full of dangerous cults and powerful individuals, life was certainly more important than "freedom"!

  Tai Ji was too "impatient" and didn’t want to see more people living good lives.

  After all, hardship art of fate!

  The stant ges of life ah were much more beloved by Tai Ji than peace.

  This allowed her to quickly plunder more of the power of fate.

  Eically, there weren’t any major issues at the moment.

  Matthew had no obje to pnned eies.

  As long as everyone had "enough" resources, pared to their previous lives, they would naturally uand.

  However, there was a signifit issue with internal affairs.

  Matthew thought it was inexcusable that he hadn’t noticed earlier.

  There was no effit internal governance system in pce.

  Although Butler Ralph, loyal as ever, handled almost everything ierritory by himself,

  Matthew hadn’t appointed more specialized mao haasks more effitly.

  Nor had he established detailed, specific tasks for these "tools"—there was no proper distribution of power among the higher ranks.

  In simpler terms, there were no clear rules or ws.

  Nor were there people to enforce those ws!

  Matthew uood why Tai Ji had overlooked these things.

  Gods, let alone lords, nobles, spellcasters, or professionals, often didn’t care about ordinary people.

  They wouldn’t themselves with the "petty" rights of people they sidered to be like ants.

  But Matthew uood it very clearly.

  True civilization, real ws, must apply to every individual.

  Everyone must follow them!

  No one should have special privileges.

  It would be incredibly difficult, but Matthew felt it was worth attempting.

  Imagine, Matthew, with his advanced memory and legacy, came to this world only to behave like everyone else—oppressing, exploiting, and indulging in arrogance.

  How would that make him different from the high-and-mighty "gods"?

  Of course, Matthew also uood something very well.

  There are always troublesome people in this world, no matter which world you’re in!

  People who only seek to oppress and exploit others for their own gain are far too numerous to t.

  Matthew suspected that during his time in seclusion in the chamber,

  Many flicts must have erupted in Bay Territory—some due to human error, but most certainly due to iional malice.

  During this time, Matthew decided to pn things carefully.

  The sun hung low in the sky, and the clouds spread zily.

  A gentle breeze blew, causing the rice shoots in the flooded fields and the green leaves of the wheat in the drynds to sway.

  Long lines of pioneers orderly returo Bay Town, their eyes filled with eager anticipation as they gazed at the lush green sprouts in the fields.

  Two newly added patrol teams were preparing to leave the town to patrol the outer areas.

  They would clear out the restless murlocs, capture suspicious spies, and stay vigint for potential enemies.

  The murloc camp’s ret u had made everyone appreciate the peace of Bay Territory even more.

  The reinforced gates, now equipped with a few extra s, quickly quelled the restlessness among the adventurers.

  But behind the ses, some people were secretly pleased.

  Didn’t this mean that those in charge of the territory were beginning to aowledge that they couldn’t trol the situation?

  Their opportunity was ing!

  Beh the calm surface, turbulent undercurrents began to stir.

  The Lord’s Manor.

  Almost everyone in charge had gathered here.

  They thought Butler Ralph had summohem to discuss termeasures.

  But when the now-taller Lord walked out of the study with a smile, each person’s face lit up with ued joy!

  It wasn’t until they had lost him that they realized how much they relied on him!

  Without the Lord overseeing everything, everyone had felt uneasy.

  Now, seeing the Lord present, exuding even stronger power and making no effort to hide his strength,

  Everyone’s hearts were immediately at ease!

  With the Lord or Arist around, no monsters or spirits would stand a ce!

  However, when everyoiced the small figure on Matthew’s shoulder, they were baffled.

  They certainly didn’t believe this was the Lord’s daughter.

  Because with just one g Yaya, everyone could sense a familiar presence.

  Their minds would instantly jure up the image of a majestid beautiful figure.

  Lord Yaya!

  “Lord Yaya transform into human form now. This means her power has grown again!”

  In the minds of most oners and professionals, the more mysterious and unique a creature was, the more powerful it became!

  Letting the little foodie sit on his shoulder,

  Matthew carefully reviewed the reports hao him by Butler Ralph, casually remarking with i:

  “So, I slept for aire month?”

  “Tsk, tsk, Bay Territory remained fine, but the murloc camp has been quite active!”

  Having firmed that the Lord’s physical ges were harmless, Butler Ralph felt a weight lift from his shoulders as he thought of those despicable individuals and replied helplessly:

  “Their numbers aren’t small, and they have noble backers. Without your orders, Lord, we couldn’t take a.”

  Matthew uood Butler Ralph’s implication and stretched zily, his voice clear and bright as he said:

  “Don’t worry about the murloc camp. Let them stir up trouble for a while longer. We’ll deal with them ohe fortress is fully built.”

  “Bay Territory is our foundation; the problems here are more pressing.”

  “If some people don’t want to behave, then we’ll teach them the rules.”

  “Perfect timi’s make an example out of them for the adveo see!”
