***
Long story short, this world is called Galliather, a world consisting of 3 small continents, 2 unknown continents and 1 main continent called Clyster.
And Kazuki was now in the main continent.
On the main continent there are 2 empires and 13 minor kingdoms and 1 ownerless territory.
The 2 empires were the Arthia Empire and the Razor Empire.
The main continent had an area of about 110 million square kilometers, even though the units of calculation here were different, Kazuki could still figure it out through some experiments on calculations and comparison with Livy.
With a total population of about 1.22 billion people on this continent, about 457 million live in the Arthia Empire.
The Arthia Empire has an area of about 39% of the area of the main continent and for the Razor Empire it has an area of about 26 of the area of the main continent, while the rest is owned by 13 other kingdoms and 1 area that is not owned by anyone other than this forest which has an area of about 10% of the continent's total area and this forest is right in the middle of the Clyster continent.
However, no single country is capable of controlling this forest, so they only make this side of the forest as their national boundary.
The state of this continent was in quite an intense war but the two empires did not participate in the war.
But suddenly the Razor Empire attacked the eastern part of the Arthia Empire with the excuse of wanting to get its past territory that had been taken over by the ancestors of the Arthia Empire.
In order to maintain its sovereignty, the Arthia Empire also put up a fight.
But suddenly 6 other small kingdoms declared war on the Arthia Empire for unclear reasons and joined forces with the Razor Empire to attack it.
Even if they were just an empire, but if the 6 kingdoms united with the Razor empire to attack the Arthia empire, wouldn't the Arthia Empire indirectly be like fighting 2 empires?
Day after day, the Arthia Empire fought very hard, but they were always beaten back by the Razor Empire and the 6 Kingdoms Alliance.
The current internal state of the Arthia Empire was also extremely unstable, the King was seriously ill, the Imperial Family's First Son was a gambler and a drunkard, who was completely indifferent to the Empire's affairs, and the other family members neither had sufficient competence nor strong support.
So that only Princess Olivia is the best candidate to lead this Empire, apart from this girl having a very great genius in the field of magic and politics, this girl also has a strong sense of responsibility coupled with her incomparable beauty which makes her respected and praised as the strongest genius and the most beautiful woman in the world. this continent.
The Empire's responsibility this time was completely in Olivia's hands.
This is what caused Olivia to want to go to the Razor Empire for diplomacy and talk to the Crown Prince of the Razor Empire who has the ambition to conquer the territory of the Arthia Empire.
Since the normal road that connected the two Empires was currently still ravaged by a huge war, it would be absolutely impossible to go through the normal path, so Livy decided to take the road that went through the Great Erchellot Forest to reach the Razor Empire.
Even though before they decided to depart via this path, the explorers had confirmed that there would be no monsters on this path at this time.
But what happened was the opposite, suddenly their group was ambushed by dozens of very strong monsters.
And if told briefly, the story is their soldiers and even Livy lost then came a hero who came too late and killed all the monsters that finally made the princess fall in love, and the story is over.
That's about the story...

'... This girl is much more amazing than I thought... By the way, how did you know that she is a great girl?'

The moment Kazuki saw those stats, he was immediately stunned like a statue.
'F-Forty thousand?!!! His highest stat is forty thousand?!'
Although his surprise was not shown on his face, it could still be seen from his movements that froze slightly for a few seconds.
'Even my stats haven't reached that number yet...'

'Ack! My strange skill has increased by one!'
[...Congratulations, Master, you finally got the skill you were meant to get!]
'I don't need it.'
Livy, who noticed Kazuki's changing expression, finally asked, "Kazuki, is something wrong?"
Hearing Livy's question immediately brought him out of his contemplation, "Ahh... It's nothing, I just thought of something trivial."
Glancing at Livy again, Kazuki realized something.
"Hey Livy, since your entourage has become like this, are you going to continue on your way?" asked Kazuki while looking at Livy's face.
When she heard the question, she immediately looked at Kazuki and thought about it.
"Umm... It seems impossible to continue the journey this time. Apart from the horse carriage and some documents that have been destroyed, some of my soldiers have also died, and most of the remaining ones are still mostly seriously injured..." Livy said softly.
Kazuki saw that it was getting dark and asked Livy, "Ahh... Livy, it's getting dark. Do you and your troops want to set up camp here? Isn't it very dangerous?"
Livy was instantly stunned upon hearing a fact she had forgotten.
"T-Then what should we do? Many of the soldiers right now are still seriously injured and need a lot of treatment, and there's also no town for us to live in near here..." Livy said with slightly trembling lips.
She still remembered how strong the monsters here were. Her magical energy had yet to recover, and the soldiers also couldn't fight for the time being.
'Even this girl is still worrying too much about her soldiers...'
Kazuki was completely in awe of Livy's character, even when her head and hair were still wet with her blood.
Raised the hand...
Kazuki subconsciously raised his hand and caressed the girl's hair gently.
"Hiii~...!"
Livy was a little surprised by what Kazuki did, but she still enjoyed it.
Knowing that Livy was enjoying his caresses, Kazuki was a little embarrassed when he came to his senses but continued on for a few more minutes.
The girl's blood had also dried so it wasn't hard to caress her.
'Livy looks like a cute cat when petted, her stiff face replaced by a soft and comfortable face...'
It's a good thing the two of them did it in a private tent, otherwise... It's possible that the soldiers would be talking about the two of them.
Well… Even though the soldiers were already talking about the two of them before Kazuki even realized it.
After a few minutes had passed, Kazuki also raised his hand.
"Uhhh~..."
Knowing that Kazuki ended her hand caressing, Livy pouted and looked at Kazuki with her cute hostile face.
"Why did you end it too soon~...?!" Livy protested to Kazuki.
"Ahhh Livy... I've been at it for ten minutes..."
Livy who heard the statement was slightly surprised and asked, "R-Really?"
"Of course Livy~, I'm not lying."
"Uuu~...Okay..."
Even though Livy nodded, she was still a little sad that the caressing had ended too soon.
Seeing that Livy was still pouting, Kazuki offered to let her and her troops stay at his nearby residence.
"Hey Livy, since you and your troops don't have a comfortable place to rest, how about you all stay at my residence which is nearby?" he suggested.
Livy was surprised by the offer. "What... Where do you live? Do you live here?!" she asked.
Kazuki scratched his head and replied, "Ahaha... Not here, but it's more accurate to say that the place where I stay when I came here was temporary."
Livy was still doubtful about the size of Kazuki's residence. "I see... But can your residence accommodate more than a dozen people?"
"Don't worry, Livy, my living quarters are more than enough to accommodate even more warriors," Kazuki said confidently.
Livy was pleased with the offer and couldn't refuse it. "Alright, then Kazuki, please show us the way!" she exclaimed, shaking his hand.
"U-Uhh... Kindly follow me," Kazuki said, feeling a little embarrassed but also happy that he could help Livy and her troops.
*** "So that's my decision, Robert. Can you speed up getting the troops together and gathering the horses and valuables to take with us? We'll hide all the horse-drawn carriages nearby," Livy ordered from beside Kazuki, as Robert kneeled in front of them. "Okay, Princess. I will organize the soldiers as soon as possible!" Robert replied. "Thanks for your hard work, Robert." A few hours later, Robert had finished giving his orders very quickly. All the valuables and injured soldiers were swiftly carried away by the soldiers on horses, after they had hidden the carriages in a very hidden but accessible place. As for the soldiers who had died, they were moved to a place that was more secluded from view of the street. At this point, the soldiers had already gathered in the middle of the road, looking at Commander Robert who was standing in front of them all. "Soldiers! We will be staying overnight at Lord Kazuki's residence! So take all valuables with you, and don't forget to bring t
Staring at the door for a while, the old man sighed tiredly. "Hahh... Takeru... Can you hear me?" he asked. Suddenly, the office telephone on the old man's desk rang. "I can hear you, sir," Takeru answered. "Is that young man the heir of the Igarashi Dojo?" asked the old man calmly. "..." Takeru hesitated before replying, "That's right, Sir." "Have you been monitoring him properly? Why has he become so different? Has he been training his body?" the old man inquired. "That's right, Sir. We have been monitoring him closely. We even have satellite footage and we found a doctor who was giving him dietary and training advice. After investigating, we discovered several incidents that had befallen the young man, which might be the reason why he decided to train his body so hard," Takeru explained at length. Hearing this explanation, the old man smiled slightly and asked, "Ohoo~...? What did you find?" "We found out that this young man was a victim of extreme bullying. He was subjecte
*** "Was it this young man who knocked you unconscious yesterday?" asked a muscular man, showing his cellphone to another man. "That's right! That bastard also stole my photoshoot!" growled the youth with a face filled with rage. "Hahh?! Losing to a young man who can only rely on his face, you really are embarrassing, Kisaki!" exclaimed a man with a face full of horrible tattoos. "Shut up Hanjin! I didn't even realize when he kicked my leg without warning and then kicked my head when I fell!" Kisaki roared ferociously in response. "Tch! Shut up, you two! Let me think of a way to get revenge on that bastard!" The muscular man who had shown Kisaki the picture scolded the two of them when he was distracted. They were both shocked and immediately apologized to the man. "Forgive us, Tobi-sama!" they shouted in unison. "Alright, call the other core leaders, we'll discuss this!" Tobi ordered them. "We understand!" After some time, they all had gathered in a narrow but clean alley. T
*** "What about the attack? Is it certain that the girl will die?" "With such powerful and numerous monsters, I can confirm that the girl should be dead," said a black-robed man without a face visible. "Good. If there are no survivors, it should be easy for me to carry out the next plan." "Yes, do as you please, and goodbye." That was what the robed man said before walking out of the dark and extremely dirty room. "Sure, goodbye..." After the robed man left, an old woman entered the room. "What about our next plan, Father?" asked the old woman to an old man with a thick beard who was sitting quietly in a chair. "We can carry out the plan this time. Prepare your son to execute his plan. Our subordinates are ready to take control of this Empire." "Okay, Father," replied the old woman to the bearded grandfather. Then the old woman left the room, leaving the bearded old man alone. Seeing that his daughter had completely walked out of the room, the old geezer heaved a tired sigh
*** "Do you know where the Princess is now?" asked a soldier as he carried his food. "I don't know, don't ask me," snorted the man next to him. "Perhaps the Princess is in the more luxurious room upstairs?" "That could be..." They chatted about where Livy might be sleeping until a surviving knight commander walked up to them all. "Hey you guys! Do you want your mouths sewn up?!" Hearing the scream, they all immediately stood up and bowed their heads to the knight. "Please excuse our language, Sir Dawson!" they exclaimed in unison. "Well, let's not talk about the Princess anyway... Why do you guys like talking about her so much?" asked Sir Dawson with a tired sigh. Glancing at each other, they finally answered. "Nothing else to talk about?" "Too interesting to see the Princess's sudden change in character!" "Talking about the owner of this Palace?" "Yeah, those are all fun topics to discuss..." They expressed their own opinions to each other. Seeing that they still had no
*** Now, Sir Dawson will describe what happened from his perspective, regarding the political system in the Arthia Empire. The Arthia Empire had a centralized government system where nepotism was always the norm, even though those promoted through nepotism were often untalented in their field. As a result, the Empire remained in a state of prolonged stagnation. Poverty in the Empire was also quite extreme, as there were very few gold reserves in the state treasury. The entire continent used the same currency, namely gold coins. However, a small country located to the south - a kingdom that was very rich - controlled the circulation of gold, so the Empire had no power to restore its economy. Many events led to this situation, with the United Kingdom and the Razor Empire having absolute control over the circulation of gold coins. Ultimately, they were able to choke the Arthia Empire's economy and significantly weaken it. "Though the Arthia Empire was a fertile and wealthy country, d
After arriving at the dining room, Kazuki and Sir Dawson saw that half of the soldiers were still there to eat. Looking at them all with a bright smile, Kazuki immediately shouted loudly, “Etto~!! Everyone, can you hear my voice~!?” The soldiers nodded lightly. Nodded... Nodded... "Alright, I'll just get straight to the point, Sir Dawson and I have been discussing for a while, and we'd like to ask for your opinion on your grievances towards the Arthia Empire. Please share your personal opinions about the Empire, whatever that opinion may be, we will accept!!” The soldiers who were listening to Kazuki's statement glanced at each other and started discussing. It wasn't until a soldier stood up and raised his hand while shouting, "Master Kazuki! Can I express my complaint?" Seeing the first person who dared to speak up made Kazuki smile sincerely and reply, “Yes, please share your complaints!” "I have a complaint about why my child cannot go to school even though my child is very sma
*** In the backyard of the Secret Palace. "Woahhh~!! Sir Robert is the best!!" "What a powerful monster!!" "Good thing we were able to learn this!" The soldiers, who had been resting, watched as Sir Robert fought against a very large and tall monster. When the monster saw the many humans, it tried to attack the palace. However, the monster crashed into the barrier and could not enter. Once Sir Robert realized that the soldiers were watching quietly, he stepped out of the barrier and fought the monster one-on-one, showing the soldiers its techniques. The moment Kazuki saw those who were watching Sir Robert fight, he even recognized this type of monster a bit. 'Hey System, isn't this monster the second monster I killed...?' [...Yes, that type of monster is the Orc Champion.] '... So...' "Hurraaaa...!!!!" press!! Slamming his sword down, Sir Robert finally killed the monster! Slash!!!! Scroshhh!!!! "Roaarrrrr!!!!!!!!" brukk!!!! Sprawl... When the monster was killed, the
*** The 29th Floor Defence, the monster known as "Shadowfang," was a terrifying creature. Its black-furred body enclosed powerful muscles, and its red eyes exuded killing intent. With sharp teeth and menacing claws, it was a deadly predator. "Grhhhhh...!!!" Kazuki faced it calmly, his sharp eyes looking at the monster. The Time Space Spear in his hand shone with a silvery blue light, hinting at the power ready to be unleashed. He stepped forward, ready to fight this monster. Dash-!!! "Roaarrr-!!!" The monster let out a thunderous roar, and its first attack came quickly. Kazuki dodged nimbly, dodging its sharp claws. In an instant, he was already at the monster's side, and with a swift movement, his spear stabbed towards the creature's shoulder. "Die for me-!!!" Croshhh-!!! The monster cried out in pain, but its attack became even more ferocious. Kazuki moved with great speed and skill, dodging the deadly attacks. He jumped into the air, avoiding the monster's bite. Avoid-!!!
*** The door of the room opened and King Ray entered the room with a firm step. Kazuki and the ministers greeted him. Without further ado, Kazuki immediately asked, "What is the reason for your arrival here, King Ray?" King Ray smiled calmly, showing his maturity and wisdom. He stated his intention firmly. "I will get straight to the point, I came to ask for help and establish a strong political relationship with the Arthia Empire led by you, Emperor Kazuki." Kazuki and the ministers were surprised by this request. However, Kazuki understood that this step could be the key to overcoming a greater threat and developing a strong ally. He stepped forward with a steady step, "Explain, King Ray. Why do you want us to be allies? Won't you be hostile by other Kingdoms?" King Ray explained about the threat that was threatening his country. He revealed that they had also faced terrible pressure from other countries, and even if that failed, they still had other problems in terms of food, a
*** The adventurers responded quickly, unleashing their best fighting skills. Move-!! Srasshhhhhh-!!!! The sound of weapons clashing, magic exploding, and battle cries echoed along the dark alleys. "Earth creation-!!" Booommmmm-!!!! Step- Dashhhh-!!! "Mage-!! A few steps beside the Tanker there is a barrel containing vampires hiding-!! So, quickly destroy it-!!" "I'll do it-!!" Roarrrrr-!!! Flash- The vampires tried to attack brutally, but the adventurers overcame their fear and fought back, but the vampires were easily suppressed by them because they had more numbers. The battle was fierce, with blood and sweat mixing, filling the air with a turbulent energy. Scrassshhhh-!!! Avoid- Split!!! After a heavy battle, the adventurers finally managed to defeat the vampires. The ferocious creatures turned into dust, disappearing in the night wind. The adventurers breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt admiration for each other's determination and courage. "Hahhhh... Hahh
*** In the negotiation room, a tense atmosphere prevailed as Kazuki put forth his opinion. "Aizen, I understand that your plan has good intentions," Kazuki said calmly, "but I have a different idea that might be more effective." Aizen stared at Kazuki in surprise but allowed him to explain. "What do you propose, Master?" Kazuki elaborated on his plan in detail, outlining how they could seek assistance from Hermit, the Head of the Adventurer's Guild in Nivaria City. "I believe that we can gain broader help and information through Hermit's network. Additionally, we can conduct our investigation more covertly this way." Aizen pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement. "You make a valid point. Let's involve Hermit in our efforts." *** Kazuki and Aizen agreed to invite Hermit to the headquarters of the War Division. Hermit was a wise and experienced individual who possessed extensive knowledge about the situation in Nivaria City. At least, he understood Nivaria City far bett
Sruuppttt... "Ahhhhh~" The morning sunlight streamed through Kazuki's bedroom window as he sat at his neatly arranged desk, sipping his coffee. Stare Stacks of reports and balance sheets lay scattered on his laptop in front of him, reflecting a busy activity after the thrilling meeting last night. Ring~ Ring~ Ring~ Suddenly, the communicator on his desk vibrated, but it wasn't an ordinary message; it was an emergency message. "Hmmm...? What's going on?" Kazuki quickly grabbed it and read the message. His face turned serious as he read the news about a vampire attack in the city of Nivaria and injured members of the War Division! "Vampire attack... and injured members?" Kazuki mumbled to himself, slightly puzzled. Until now, he hadn't known about this. Nevertheless, the situation seemed very serious since it warranted an emergency message. He knew they wouldn't use an emergency message unless the issue was beyond their control. He knew quick and precise action was required.
*** "Koga-!! Get over here and attack the bastard attacking from the tree-!!!" Koga roared madly when he realized that the attacks launched by these vampires were very diverse. "Okay-!!" Without much ado, Aizen immediately pointed his magic staff at the vampire and shouted, "Phoenix Rebirth-!!" In an instant, Aizen conjured a massive fireball with a diameter that was extremely large and directed it towards the vampire with a devastating power-!! Fireburst-!! Burn-!! However, the vampire easily dodged it. But before he could place his foot on the tree branch beside him, suddenly an arrow coated with white light pierced his heart. Thud- Crunchhhh-!!! "Aggghhhh-!!!!" Crash-!! And then, the vampire collapsed to the ground. Aizen glanced to his side, seeing that there were still around 12 vampires remaining that they needed to eliminate in order to secure their safety and gather information about them. "Aizen-!! Behind you-!!" Smirk... Hearing that, Aizen smiled slightly an
Kazuki showcases his expertise. All of his ideas and concepts in creating this game silence those who sneered at him. "The technology that can scan the brain and intricately map it into a computer, this is the technology successfully developed by America. Then, for the data processing part, the Chips from China are the best as they can process data much faster than other chips. And then the steps we need to take for..." Impressed- The implementation of VRMMORPG technology requires numerous trial runs, especially considering that the market reach of The Utopia will encompass the entire world. With this conference, Kazuki can attract numerous potential individuals from all around the globe to join him and expedite the perfection of the game. Infrastructure development, server maintenance, full dive creation, marketing, management, and other aspects require at least millions of human resources for that-!! Which will bring about a vast field of employment opportunities for the masses-
*** Actually, 12 hours before the major meeting at the UN headquarters, Kazuki met someone through his connection with President Ronald. That person was Chairman Bradley, the Secretary-General of the UN. "W-what did you just say... you abducted them all, then controlled them-?!!!!!!!" Bradley shouted in disbelief, echoing in his quiet living room. Kazuki activated his "God of War" skill, causing Bradley to feel the aura and shiver in fear. “…!!!” In his own home's room, Bradley now resembled a trapped mouse facing its predator. "Bradley, if we eliminate the de facto power of a country within the UN, you are the highest-ranking person in the world. If you were given two choices, the first being a human, or the second being a demon, which would you choose?" Kazuki calmly said while crossing his arms. "What-what is that? Obviously, I would choose the first one." Grinned...!! "Huhuhuhuhhh, good! You've given the right answer. You know, in the world of politics, there are no etern
*** A significant news resurfaced, with world leaders arriving one by one in their private planes to attend a major meeting at the United Nations headquarters. Chairman Bradley, the Secretary-General of the UN, confirmed the truth of this news as he was suddenly contacted by all the world leaders to prepare for the meeting. "What is your response to the disappearance of the previous world leaders?" a reporter asked Bradley as he walked into the building. Shaking his head lightly, Bradley replied, "I don't know, and I don't intend to inquire about that from them either." The questions then shifted to other matters. Everyone wondered about the reason behind this sudden meeting. The current atmosphere was one of contentment due to the cessation of warfare, but the sudden news reignited fear among many as they speculated about the new topic that would be discussed in the meeting. It remained uncertain whether they would discuss war or something else that might be detrimental. And wit
