I'm the King Of Technology

Landon majestically strolled into the grand hall calmly.

'Chack!'

The massive silver door opened and as soon as everyone spotted Landon, they either went on their knees or bowed in salute.

"We welcome your majesty Landon Barn."

Landon looked at them and nodded.

He walked past them and sat directly on the throne.

And of course, the lord in charge of the town just silently stood beside him instead.

Baron Jamison, who was the town lord... nervously wiped his sweat and sneakily peeked at Landon gratefully.

If his majesty hadn't shown up, he had no doubt in his mind that some of these nobles here would eat him alive!

Some of them were on Landon's side, while others opposed him behind the scenes.

And even though they tried their best to conceal their hatred, Landon still noticed every little thing.

Hehehhehe...They were truly unconvinced and had done quite a lot just to prevent development within Menda town.

But no matter what tricks they came up with, Landon's team had come out unscathed... while they on the other hand, lost their time, money and resources.

So how could they not get mad?

If they had their way, they really wanted to beat Landon up until no one else could recognize him.

F***!

This guy was the root of their current predicaments.

And here he was showing his annoying face before them.

These men were both helpless and infuriated by his majesty's nonchalant attitude.

But Landon just looked at them and smiled.

Heh... what could they do to him?

They could boil and stew in their anger for all he cared.

.

"Menda town is on the verge of a great transformation.

In the nearest future, everyone will eat more, get paid well, live healthily and happily too.

This should be a cause of celebration for all.

But I hear that some of you noblemen and wealthy merchants disagree.

Hmmm...

Don't worry, this is just a gathering to discuss Menda's future development.

And as the backbones and pillars of this glorious town, it will only be fair for your opinions to be heard as well.

After all, some of you have businesses here and know more about the town than I do.

So if you have any suggestions or concerns, feel free to voice them out.

I won't punish you in any way.

This is a meeting and not an execution.

So just say whatever it is you wish to say.

And if it is to my liking, I promise to compromise and consider it."

(0∆0)

What?

He will?

Some of the nobles and merchants were secretly jubilating over Landon's words.

Sure enough, in their eyes... he was too weak.

If it were Alec, he wouldn't even give them that opportunity.

But here Landon was, asking them about what they like and don't like.

As if... he were a little child seeking guidance.

As expected, he was still too young in the game.

With this, they could trick their way into getting what they wanted.

What great Baymardian king?

This stupidly kind nature of wanting everyone to be happy in his empire will only be his downfall.

As a ruler why ask?

Just do what you want and damn those who stand in your way.

This is the way of a true King!

.

Those who secretly opposed Landon smirked victoriously.

"Your majesty Landon Barn.

This one is called Fabian Sadowski, from the 2nd rated Sadowski Family.

And To be honest with you, a few if yes have problems with some of your rules." Said one of the gang leaders amongst them.

He was the most powerful noble in Mend town, Viscount Fabian.

Sadowski was a distant branch member of the noble family.

He had proved himself against all odds despite his low birth and had been placed to overlook the massive branch family here in Menda town.

In fact... Amongst all the nobles and merchants around, only he and a few others came from a 2nd rated noble family.

But even so, he was ranked the highest because he came from a high-class 2nd rated family.

Not the rest that either came from lower ranks.

Most of them came from 3rd rated families instead.

And ever since Baymard became popular, the main branch in the Capital had now paid proper attention to them.

They now received more pay and more guards.

Additionally, their business down here had started booming over the past few years.

And all these made them greedy by the day.

But, if they allow Landon's new rules to pass, then how would they continue making such high profits?

No!

These new rules and policies had to go!

.

"Your majesty, I speak for most of us when I say that the new rules do not favour us at all!

And that is the main problem."

"Oh?

In what way are the rules hindering you all?"

"Your majesty, the rule about banning Slavery should be abolished.

The slaves run our households and take care of our businesses.

So if they go, what should we do then?

We had to use our hard-earned money to buy these slaves.

So are we just going to let them go just like that?

This seems like a loss to us.

Maybe it might've worked in Baymard.

But out here, this humble servant thinks that it wouldn't be fair to us nobles.

That's why the whole slaves are a mist and the rules should be removed.

After all, after we bought them, they are just objects and are barely regarded as humans.

So why go into so much trouble for dead weight?

They should remain as our property and do what we say as per usual... at least until they earned back all we spent to buy them."

At least that's what many of us nobles and merchants think."

"That's right your majesty.

I am a merchant.

And I rely on them to do my account books and even clean the stores.

So if they go, then who will work in my store?"

"Your majesty!

We need them.

And if we don't treat them harshly, how will they obediently follow our instructions?

Only by letting them know that they are below the level of humans can we properly deal with them.

That's why I totally agree with Viscount Fabian."

"Yeah, that's right!

We are even kind enough to provide them with food, water and a secured estate to live in.

So shouldn't they be the ones who were grateful to us instead?"

"Your majesty..."

"Your majesty..."

"Your majesty..."
