Overgeared

Ten thousand, hundred thousand, one million, three million, ten million...

There was no change despite the backlash from existing users. Since the new update, Satisfy gained a large number of new users in just a few days. The once deserted starting villages of each kingdom were crowded with people. It was the same for the Overgeared Kingdom.

At Selena Village, in the Overgeared Kingdom...

Soldier clicked his tongue when he saw the procession of novices outside the window. “Many of them are prospective believers of the Yatan Church...”

The reason why new users started Satisfy at a later time was due to the emergence of the growth potions that boosted experience gain by 700%. Soldier was troubled when he thought they would grow quickly and benefit the Yatan Church in the future.

‘Security will quickly deteriorate if a Yatan Temple is built near the village.’

4,986th in the unified ranking—Soldier’s ranking hadn’t changed significantly compared to before he joined the Overgeared Kingdom. It was because he had relatively little time to focus on hunting when he was in charge of the lord’s office. He was worried that he wouldn’t be able to hunt if the Yatan Church gained power again.

‘If the residents are in a hard spot then tax revenue will decrease...’

The starter village was, as the name suggested, a village. The population didn’t reach the size of a city. However, the total area of the territory was quite large. It was natural since it was a place where new users were introduced every day. The quest achievement rate was very high and the market was active, so the tax revenue was quite good.

It was why Soldier, who made great achievements in the battle for Cork Island and trained soldiers under Asmosphel, chose to become the lord of a starter village while refusing to be the lord of a small or medium sized village. However, there was too much work once he became the lord and it was very tiring. Now he sighed when he saw the number of prospective Yatan Followers increasing.

‘Should I cut off the buds...?’

It was around the time when Soldier was staring at the new users with murderous eyes...

“My Lord!” a knight rushed in and shouted urgently, “The prime minister...! The prime minister has come!”

“......?!”

The territory of the Overgeared Kingdom was huge. Of course, it was dozens of times smaller than the Saharan Empire, but compared to other kingdoms on the West Continent, it was two or three times larger in size and its population was also big.

Soldier’s heart was uneasy when Lauel came to visit the starter village because Lauel was in charge of the politics of this huge kingdom.

‘Did I do something wrong in the meantime?’

He was confident that he was running the village well, but he might’ve been mistaken. He was a soldier to his bones, but he was a stranger to politics.

Lauel smiled at Soldier who was standing upright. “Please relax. Why are you doing something so embarrassing?”
