      AWDC Chapter 68 Cover
      by Volare Chapter 68: Ricardo's Engagement Even before Waomou declared himself king, various movements were already happening in Toriholi Village. One was the increasing influx of farmers into Toriholi Village. "If you go to Toriholi Village, you can cultivate fields with peace of mind," they said, and the number of people settling in the village was rapidly increasing. The population of Toriholi Village exceeded 20,000 in one fell swoop. Seeing this trend, I changed the administrative divisions of…

      AWDC Chapter 67 Cover
      by Volare I thought the chaos in the country would eventually subside once the riots had raged to a certain extent. Based on my past life experiences, I knew that things fueled by anger alone don't last long. Eventually, people tire of rioting and things return to normal. I was sure of it. Even if they're consumed by riots, people will eventually want to get back to their daily lives. Even if they can loot food during the chaos, once there's nothing left to loot, they'll try to produce food to get their hands…

      by Volare Chapter 66: Hofa's Visit Returning from the capital, I peered into my daughter's sleeping face. "Marina is so happy," my wife Margarita said with a smile. In my daughter Marina's hands was a doll I had bought in the capital. "There were so many urgent matters this time, I couldn't choose something I really liked." "Seeing your face was the happiest thing for me." Indeed, my daughter, whom I hadn't seen in three weeks, couldn't hide her excitement. Now, it seems, she was exhausted and fast…

      AWDC Chapter 65 Cover
      by Volare ## Chapter 65: Incident in the Capital The King's death was no mistake. Eric, Peck, and the people from Labos's shop had been gathering information. The wound inflicted by the mad King's blade was not shallow, but it wasn't a fatal wound. However, the blade was coated with poison. The King's personal physician lacked the knowledge to neutralize it. The poison caused respiratory failure, and he passed away unconscious. The assault could be described as an extremely coincidental event. A…

      AWDC Chapter 64 Cover
      by Volare King His Majesty returned to the capital. And left a souvenir in Toriholi Village. "This is a good place. I like it!" Standing before me with a satisfied expression is Prince Raphael, the troublesome souvenir. Even after His Majesty returned to the capital, His Highness was still in the village. His Highness is the fifth son of the previous king and also the younger brother of the current king. That Highness was left behind as an inspector of the southern region. Although it hasn't been announced…

      by Volare Chapter 63: The King's Desert Inspection The next day, His Majesty boarded the rail carriage in high spirits. We prepared a specially-made carriage pulled by two horses. To allow him to view the outside scenery, we installed glass windows and placed a bench seat along the window side, with a sofa in the back for His Majesty to sit on. "This is an excellent ride! How is it done?" "The rails are level, allowing the wheels to turn smoothly, and we've used leaf springs to cushion the impact." In…

      AWDC Chapter 62 Cover
      by Volare The King arrived in the village accompanied by influential figures like Lord Midland and Lord Gregg. The entire village turned out to welcome them, but being a small village, they lacked sufficient manpower. They greeted the King in a flurry of activity, but some mistakes were unavoidable. The King arrived by ship, but the gangway of the luxury vessel didn't match the village's barge. They hastily prepared stairs and platforms, but they couldn't hide their clumsiness. There were too many attendants,…

      AWDC Chapter 61 Cover
      by Volare ## Chapter 61: The King's Declaration The King was more a strategist than a soldier. Seeing that Prince Charles' side had too few soldiers to strike at the center, he had been plotting from the beginning to separate the southern forces. After isolating the southern region, he further worked to break down Prince Charles' side. Prince Charles had no means to counter this. As time passed, Prince Charles' forces weakened, and in the end, he surrendered the castle almost without resistance, as if begging…

      by Volare ## Chapter 60: The Battle for Milona While Prince Charles was establishing his power base in the southern region from Milona Town, the Crown Prince was also steadily consolidating his regime. Half a year after the rebellion, the King passed away in despair due to illness, and the Crown Prince immediately ascended to the throne. With the exception of the southern frontier districts, there was no opposition to this. Prince Charles sent documents to nobles throughout the country denouncing the Crown…

      by Volare Chapter 59: The Advance of the Orthodox Church For a time, rumors circulated that Prince Charles, who had shown a stance of thorough resistance, would be pursued and suppressed by the Crown Prince's side, raising tensions. However, even after half a year, there were no reports of a punitive force departing from the capital. "The capital is peaceful," a merchant from Labos reported. Meanwhile, in Toriholi Village, military training was conducted, and I also delivered wheat and other goods to…
