"Oh, an Archibald has come to see me. It would be an honour to work with you, Lord Archibald," Elizabeth said, smiling, and now it was her turn to bow her head.
Suddenly, the people near her also bowed their heads, paying their respects to Tobias, who had higher noble status. Elizabeth invited Tobias to come in, leaving the matter to her guards in front of the factory.
"How did you find this place, My Lord?" Elizabeth asked.
"A merchant told me about it in exchange for me buying his goods," Tobias said.
"Hmm, you sound like a good negotiator, My Lord," said Elizabeth.
"I will not take that as a compliment. It is more like blackmailing," Tobias replied.
"Then what do you have to offer me, Lord Tobias?"
Tobias continued to walk after the woman, his eyes glancing over the hundreds of tailors making the same style of clothing, similar to a dress. Many of them were also making suits for the men.
"Currently, I'm the leader of a regio

*** Riding his horse, Tobias quickly left Sarastrea to return to Leafvile. To get to the village, Tobias needed to take the Valestria main road because that was the only way he could travel faster. He came back with many ideas and information for the improvement of the village, but he couldn't tell Elisa about it because all the ideas hadn't been fully realized yet; there were many things they had to do. The young man passed before Giselle's brothel, seeing the situation in front of the house becoming slowly conducive, unlike before. He also didn't see Giselle in the place, a sign that she was already inside. It didn't take long for Tobias to get out of the Valestria area, as the queue at the gate still seemed to be snaking, just like usual. Tobias left the area, spurring his horse steadily through the forest and up the hill until he reached the village where he ruled. Tobias' arrival was a different thing for the villagers, who were initially scared, but now became enthusiastic.
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 44. An Oath to Tobias
***The next day.It seemed that Giselle's words had paid off. Tobias could see the effect of the rumour being successfully trusted by the people. They arrived in different outfits, some wearing luxurious attire like nobles and others wearing common clothes."It seems like your friend's connections are undoubted," Elisa said, happy to finally see visitors coming to her village."I'm grateful to have her," Tobias chimed in.Although not many, it was a good start for Leafvile. The more people who come, the more they will know about the village's potential. The tour guides start directing tourists to the Leafvile Spring waterfall.Not only are the men the tour guides, but the women have also been selected to work selling milk bottles for ritual purposes. They are already standing neatly at their stands, with stacks of milk bottles ready for sale."Impress them as much as possible. We must make an unforgettable first impression on them," Tobias said.Elisa nodded, knowing what she had to
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 45. Price of Trust
Not only the man but also his members said the same thing. They swore an oath of allegiance to Tobias, as the young man had defeated the invincible Rono for many years.The young man re-sheathed his sword, thinking bloodshed was unnecessary at this time. His head turned back, asking the soldiers guarding the village to put down their weapons.He then stepped closer to the group's leader, "I don't know if I can trust you.""We never betray. If one of us does, you can have my head," the leader said.Tobias crouched down, looking levelly at the man until they locked eyes. Tobias thought he could sense the solemnity in his gaze, but stares can be tricked and didn't make Tobias trust him."What's your name?" Tobias asked."Cleagene," said the man named Cleagene, the group leader."All right, Cleagene. You certainly want to have my trust, don't you?" asked Tobias. Cleagene nodded with his head bowed obediently."I have many things to do with this village; food, security, and growth. I'm tak

***The next day."That's approximately the design of the factory that Elizabeth and I wanted," Tobias said, talking to the foreman about the initial design of the factory.Tobias walked over to the house wall, his right hand raised, tapping lightly on the wood. Yesterday, just before Elizabeth left, she had asked Tobias directly to use bricks instead of wood in the construction of the factory.Bricks are much more expensive than wood, but in terms of durability, they can last longer. Elizabeth probably thought so, considering that she would have a major revamp if the clothing sales from the Leafvile branch could be successful within a year."I fully understand your wishes. We will do our best to build it quickly," the foreman said.Twenty workers were under his command, quite a lot for a small building. Tobias said yes, feeling relieved when the foreman said so.It had been more than a week since Tobias's reign in Leafvile, and signi
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 47. Phase two, Security Stability
Elena gasped in shock. She did not expect Tobias to be so serious about his plan to liberate Atrea. The young man's wish was like a gamble. If they succeeded, then it was good for Equestria. However, vice versa if they fail.The Equestria Queen's eyes kept looking at Tobias, trying to ascertain the man's sincerity. Tobias stuck to his commitment, even though King Constantine no longer expected him to."Are you sure you can gather such a large army in one year?" asked Elena, wanting to know the faith in Tobias' heart because it all depended on his heart.If Tobias was determined to carry out this plan, then Elena couldn't stop him. In fact, the woman planned to help Tobias by sending the leader of the Queen's Guard to teach Tobias' troops how to wield a sword."I'm sure I can do it. For now, I just need the contacts of some important people in various places," Tobias said."When exactly will you gather the troops?" asked Elena."Recruitment has already begun for now. I've assigned a fe

"Why do you want to train us to be village guard soldiers?" asked one of the men, a blacksmith who currently held a spear in his hand."Because it's the only job available for now. You certainly don't want people swearing at you for not having a job, do you?" Tobias asked.They nodded. One hundred unemployed men were gathered and lined up in the village square. Since there were fewer spears than unemployed men, some men would not get one."For those who have gotten a spear, we will begin practising how to use this weapon," Tobias replied, holding the wooden spear and staring intently."For those who haven't gotten one, you better pay attention because you will get yours later," Tobias said."For the basics, you need to do things like this," Tobias continued.The man began to show the stance to use the spear, the villagers followed along, and not a single one yelled at him. Those holding the spears slowly started to get the courage to swing t

***One month later."We need to supply some clothes to Rachdale and Edinburgh, the demand from both cities is high," Tobias said, receiving the letter just as the merchant's carriage arrived.The more people who knew about Leafvile, the more people were eager to form trade partnerships. For this week, there were already five merchants, two from Edinburgh and three from Rachdale, who intended to become Leafvile's partners, especially in the clothes trade.The factory itself was already established, and the thirteen people who had been trained had begun their work. Tobias could not manage the factory alone, as he had other work to do.In the end, the factory was led by a woman Elisa trusted. She was Amora, a 30-year-old middle-aged woman who used to work as a jewellery merchant. Her trade skills would be helpful for the textile factory."Fine. I will work on it. We need to talk to Elizabeth about our fabric needs," Amora said, realizing this
Divine Sword Art System Chapter 50. Myrcella Orders
Tobias paid no attention to him. The man again ordered his men to take them away from Leafvile. They left without arguing, walking down the stone steps while accompanied by the Leafvile soldiers.The man continued to watch their departure, he had no idea what Jeanne's noble status was, but unlike Erhard, Tobias could guess. Tobias walked back until he reached the village center, going to the village chief's house to record everything this village needed.There was a soft knock on the chief's door, and Elisa arrived at the front of the house to ask Tobias some questions, especially about the broken changing room.Tobias saw Elisa's arrival. He had expected her to ask about the facilities that they damaged."Things like this are bound to happen, considering Leafvile waterfall is a public place," Tobias said."Should I call the construction workers to repair it?" asked Elisa.The man stopped writing and raised his head as he looked at Elisa wit
