Yang Hao reached out and pinched Hela's adorable cheek. Then he explained the importance of Karina accompanying him: her research would be very useful in Kazdel. After all, Kazdel lacked everything, except for the various things buried underground.
"So, Karina, you'll have to be my archaeological consultant then—ah, that's all. The call went through. Hello? Therese?"
"—"
The call was connected. After Yang Hao briefly discussed the issue of the [quote] with Therese, without waiting for Therese's response, knowing that he was on the stronger side, Yang Hao also talked about his conditions regarding the [representative].
"Then a...representative of the alliance?" Ms. Therese was clever; she clearly understood what was going on. But her greatest wisdom lay in knowing the power disparity between the two nations, so she accepted without complaint: "I will find someone who will satisfy you, teacher. It's just about the issue of city takeover..."
"—I will be moving to the Kazdel region in a while, at the latest a month. Remember to make sure the handover is done properly, and if there are no unforeseen circumstances, I will meet with you on the same day I arrive to discuss matters concerning the Gallo Empire."
"I understand. What else?"
"There are some things I might need to talk to you about privately."
"...yes."
She paused for a moment, then gave her answer.
Chapter 129
The day quickly came to November 17th, the day Theresa was to carry out her plan to "eliminate the enemy".
That day, Yang Hao lent Margarita, Lady Northam, and some of the Serpent Scales and Templar Knights to Theresa. And then? After Theresa and the others went to carry out their plans, he, happy to have some free time, simply accompanied Karina to work.
Although it was described as "accompanying," this energetic nobleman was quite perceptive about what Karina was actually planning... So after sending Hela to experience the customs and culture of the Great Knight Territory with her mother, Sonia, he spent time alone with Miss Karina in the office to deepen their relationship.
"But, Mr. Yang Hao? Aren't you worried about Miss Theresa's plans?"
"No, I'm not worried. She can handle it, and I can't always boss her around, can I? Let her develop her abilities; it'll be good for both of us in the future."
"Um..."
I sat on the same sofa as Mr. Yang Hao, studying the documents on the table.
Miss Karina smiled and nodded upon hearing this. Then, she leaned against Yang Hao, muttering, "Finally, I can be alone with you," while also wondering what would happen if Lord Green came along.
After all, Yang Hao hasn't done even the slightest research on [dolls] during this time. If he has to create a new body for Miss Green after he goes back... what should he do?
"Margarita's teacher, Lady Northrend, seems to know a lot about human anatomy as a Blood Demon. I plan to learn from her when I go to work in Kazdel..."
"Hmm...but Miss Margarita won't be coming back to Ursus with us for the time being, right?"
"She wants to mature a bit more... Let her be. Anyway... Karina, what are the recent findings of your research?"
"Yes! Of course... but when I'm studying these documents, I always dream of a crimson church, or an exhibition hall full of worms... Has Mr. Yang Hao ever been to those places?"
"No, that's not true. So please tell me what happened."
...
Yang Hao and Miss Karina deepened their relationship through their discussions on "Wandering Abode" and "Ascension".
Meanwhile, the invited guests arrived—the capitalists split into two factions and entered the meeting room of the captured Columbia landship. But before the two factions could look at each other and accuse each other, the high command of the Knights of Conquest also arrived.
However, the conquering knights were quite clever; they only sent a portion of their men, while another portion secretly remained in the Great Knight Territory to guard against any possible attacks. Even so, when they arrived, they were still quite surprised by the sight of the capitalists waging war against each other.
"What the hell is going on?"
Amid the grumbling of the conquering knights, the capitalists gradually came to understand everything; they realized it was a trap—and the conquering knights, too, sensed something was wrong through the expressions on their faces.
But they had already walked in, and it was too late to run away.
9:20 a.m. on November 17th.
With a deafening explosion, and the landship being blasted into pieces by an internal blast, the vast majority of capitalists and high-ranking members of the conquering knights in Kazimierz were wiped out.
The survivors panicked and tried to resist Theresa's next plan, but they soon realized that not only were the people not on their side, but even their own men were not.
The capitalists' workers and employees have completely sided with Teresa's newly established behemoth corporation called the "Kasimir United Merchants Association." Meanwhile, the high command of the Conqueror Knights has discovered, to their despair, that the vast majority of their practical warriors have chosen "neutrality" and are completely disobeying their orders.
Combined with Theresa's public relations skills, and just like that—at 11 a.m. that day, all the people of the Great Knight Territory knew the momentous event that [when capitalists and a group of conquering knights were inspecting a captured landship, an accident caused the landship to explode]. At the same time, considering that [the merchants and conquering knights were no longer capable of maintaining order], Theresa proclaimed herself Grand Duchess of Kazimierz and, amidst the cheers of the people, announced that the establishment of a new government was imminent.
"The formal inaugural speech will have to wait two more days. Then, I still need to win over those 'neutral' factions... By the way, Ms. Sonia—we really have to thank you so much for those capitalists' safe houses! If it weren't for you, it would probably have taken us quite a while just to open the doors."
"It's alright. But Miss Theresa, you have to keep going!"
"Thank you~"
Watching the pony and the Deepsea Hunter celebrating their successful plan not far away, Ms. Northumberon simply sipped her tasteless chilled blood from the refrigerator, then turned and nodded at Margarita. She said Margarita should also prepare to go back, since, barring any unforeseen circumstances, they would need to hitch a ride back to Kazdel to continue their "classes."
"Okay, okay," Margarita replied happily, after all, she had already developed a considerable sense of acceptance towards Kazdel. More importantly, being able to spend more time with Yang Hao was indeed good news and something to celebrate for her.
But then again...
"Um, teacher? Why do I feel like your appetite hasn't been very good lately... oh?"
"...It's nothing. Just like how humans who have eaten white bread don't like sour black bread anymore. Sigh... Margarita, you were actually able to drink those blood bags that had been sitting for who knows how many days... Indeed, you are stronger than I imagined, Margarita."
"Huh? Um... thank you, teacher..."
"..."
Although Margarita was very confused about why her teacher would do this, the innocent girl never considered the possibility that something might have happened between her teacher and Yang Hao—after all, he was her teacher!
Margarita trusted her teacher the most! Of course, the person she trusted most was Yang Hao.
However... as expected, Margarita still felt that it would be wonderful if Ms. Northumbers could stay with her forever...
(After all, she's family...) she muttered to herself, watching Ms. Northumbers listlessly drink the blood. Margarita hoped that she could stay with her teacher in the future.
Chapter 130
......
That evening, Yang Hao was keeping his promise to Theresa, trying to get her a child before he left.
But then again—
"Wait, wait a minute?! Boss! Let me, let me rest for a bit!"
"...If you don't try harder, you might not even be pregnant by the time I leave. Although there's still a long time ahead, Teresa, you're talking about before I leave Kazimierz, right?"
"This has happened four or five times already! Ming, I have an inaugural speech tomorrow, please, just let me off the hook today..."
Theresa had a feeling that something was off.
Why is my boss being so incredibly brave today?!
Her heart was pounding so hard she didn't even have the strength to turn over, let alone speak... This shouldn't be happening!
Usually, when I'm exhausted, my boss is about the same! Why is there such a big difference now?!
This shouldn't be!
Teresa, the little pony, was filled with confusion, yet her body was overwhelmed by pleasure. She knew this couldn't go on, but the power to decide was completely out of her hands!
Her master, her boss, was overjoyed by his "excessive energy." After two more rounds amidst Theresa's desperate yet expectant gasps, he finally stopped—
Then he hugged Theresa and fell onto the bed.
"If this still doesn't work, then I really can't help you." The man muttered something, stroking the face of the drowsy Theresa, who was too weak to speak. "—Go to sleep now, little pony. I can't go on the field with you then. You'd better do your best tomorrow."
"Well..."
Exhausted, she closed her eyes, her stomach stuffed full of goods.
......
Then the time jumped directly to 8:11 AM on November 18th.
There was one hour left before Theresa delivered her inaugural address as Grand Duchess of Kazimierz.
After a hurried breakfast, Yang Hao, followed by Sonia's mother, accompanied Theresa to the government office to help her prepare.
Although Mr. Yang Hao certainly couldn't walk onto that platform with Theresa due to his own status, he could at least offer some help. For example, he could provide some psychological counseling to calm Theresa down, guide her on how to handle certain situations, or instruct her to maintain composure and finish her speech in case of any unexpected events.
Then, under Sonia's mother's unwavering gaze, Mr. Yang Hao, biting the tip of Theresa's ear, said:
"And most importantly—barring any unforeseen circumstances, we will leave Kazimierz at the end of the month. At that time, I will try to make the straight-line distance between the Duchy of Kosiché and the Grand Knight Territory a little closer... As for defense, we will cancel the border troops stationed on the Kazimierz border, and instead, our troops will be concentrated in the north and south."
"Oh? Uh... I see, I'll focus my border efforts on the west side too... But boss, um, what did you put in my skirt...?"
"The thing you really liked yesterday."
"Well..."
A little jumping prop that Teresa really liked during foreplay yesterday, and Yang Hao also recalled his bold idea from the past—just like that.
...
And so, with something inserted inside her, Theresa barely managed to control her trembling body as she walked toward the government's public address stage.
After Miss Teresa left, feeling both aggrieved and excited because of her boss's "personal interests," Sonia's mother tapped Mr. Yang Hao's forehead expressionlessly. By now, Sonia's mother knew that Mr. Yang Hao had completely gone astray, and instead of trying to correct him, it was better to just let him be.
After all, orthodontic treatment is a waste of time and ineffective. Sigh! How did my child become like this? Who taught him to be so bad?
After much deliberation, Sonia's mother could only conclude that she wanted to kill the person who had corrupted her child in order to vent her anger. However, she only thought about it...
“Sonia, let’s wander around a bit—well, there’s really nothing to do these days. I’m planning to check out our army’s camp and then strengthen ties after Theresa is officially recognized… Oh, right, I need to go see Ms. Northon. So, shall we go now?”
"Ah."
They left the small room amicably.
After a while, Theresa finally arrived at the place where she was supposed to begin her speech.
Damn it! She cursed inwardly, the thing inside her buzzing and vibrating. If it weren't for her knightly physique that allowed her to endure it, her speech today would probably have had to be abruptly cut short.
At this point, some people might ask: Why didn't Teresa take the things out?
Faced with this question, Theresa could only give her answer without hesitation: although it was indeed possible to do so, she liked the thrill of it!
If you remove the most exciting part, won't her speech be completely boring?!
In a sense, Yang Hao's understanding of his little pony was indeed thorough... You know, even Teresa's best friends Lily and Mars didn't know that this girl had this kind of fetish...
This kind of habit of openly engaging in "entertainment" in public...
If they knew that Theresa had even considered livestreaming her recent nightly "work" to the Duke of Kosiché... I wonder how horrified those ponies would be to look at their current boss.
Ugh!
Forget it.
"...[Kasimir swear words], how am I supposed to give this speech later?"
She muttered to herself... Looking at the people of the Great Knights' Territory who had gathered in the square waiting for her to speak, she smiled and then stood in front of the microphone on the podium:
She didn't quite understand what politicians wanted to say—but she knew what the people wanted.
so...
"—From now on—"
Let's start with the promises we made to the people.
Now that Kazimierz is in ruins, taking over the assets and factories left behind by those capitalists [who died in an accident] will be Theresa's first step in making Kazimierz rise again. It is also the first step in fulfilling her promise upon taking office.
...But then again...why does the excitement only intensify when we start talking about serious matters?
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the shop owner who was casually passing by the square. Noticing he was holding a controller as he waved at her...
She was dumbfounded.
Chapter 131
... ...
Shortly after Grand Duchess Theresa announced on November 18, 1042, that the Kingdom of Kazimir would stand with Ursus through thick and thin, facing the threat from the west together—
11 month 24 day.
There are still two days until Mr. Yang Hao leaves.
Theresa lay slumped over her desk, while her doctor—a sister also drawn from the Creed—stared at her with a horrified expression.
"So Theresa—say that again, you fucking idiot?"
"Huh? I'm a Grand Duchess now, can't you show me some respect, Moss?"
"Respect your mother! Although the girls have known for a long time that you have that kind of fetish, getting pregnant before marriage is one thing, but you two have done it so many times and never had a fertile day, and your fertile day is the fucking 27th?!"
"Don't speak so loudly, I'm a shy person too."
“A shy person wouldn’t stuff XX in during a public speech and then come back to the office with their stockings soaked! Damn it! Anyway, your test results are as healthy as ever, you just need to work harder.”
