System vs Rebirth

Chapter 904

After the people started to settle down, Alexander was recalled to the main group to discuss the next course.

At that time, he met a brown-haired middle-aged guy. He looked at Alexander, saying, "Thank you for your service, Alexander. Without you, we wouldn't have reached this far."

"You don't have to thank me." Alexander chuckled. He was accompanied by Ray and Margaretha this time since it was an important discussion.

"Is that so?" The guy smiled before continuing, "So, the reason I ask you to come here is to form a new place we can call home. I want to create a country, but if we create a republic country, there won't be any order. It will be hard to make a decision and we won't have any speed to work with the tasks at hand. So, I'm thinking about creating a country under the monarchy."

"Do you want to become a king?"

"I actually wanted to nominate you. Thanks to you, the others learned a lot about Spiritual Energy and your help was the most important. So, I thought about you becoming a king."

Alexander looked annoyed while scratching the back of his head. "Don't say that. I'm unfit to be a king. I can't even govern my group well, so you should just do those complicated stuff."

"But…"

"I know that you're going to say that…" The guy shook his head helplessly. "In that case, at least, I want you to be a Duke. You don't have to do a lot of things. Just take care of a small territory and repel any demons… Basically, it's a home for your group. I won't become a king if you refuse, Alex."

"Well…" Alexander glanced at Margaretha, who actually nodded her head as if telling him that she could take care of it.

"Alright then. I'll take it."

"Then, there is one more problem that I want you to solve right now. Since it's going to be a monarchy, there is a need for a family name. As you know, that family name is rather unimportant during our time period, but in this current world, it will be a household name. Hearing it alone can bolster people's morale and other things."

"Can't you just use Simeon or something?" Alex asked.

"I don't mind if you want to use it."

"Well…" Alex suddenly fell silent and looked at Margaretha, thinking about her name. She already had 'Greenwood' in her name, so it would be weird to change it to Simeon. His father or grandmother also didn't bother with the surname either.

So, he wondered if he should use Simeon or something else. He suddenly remembered something… something that united all of them. Yes, it was his sword.

With a single glimpse of his sword, Alex actually smiled, saying, "In that case, I will use Ardagan as my family name. People always tease me with 'Samuel' even though Simeon is the correct one, so let's just replace it with Ardagan."

"What?!" Ray and Margaretha dropped their jaws in disbelief. To think that he would change his name this easily. But considering no one would bother to see his real name, it shouldn't be a problem.

The middle-aged man chuckled. "Hahaha. That sounds just like you. In that case, we shall proceed with that. My name will be Andrew De Lenfeth, and you shall be Alexander Ardagan. In this land, I hope that you will assist me in building this new home, Alex."

"Of course. Ah, should I call you Your Majesty or something? It's starting to become a roleplay."

"Haha. There might be a need to do so, but it's just for formal occasions. I'm extremely grateful to you, so let's just call each other's name when we're alone."

"Got it."

"Then, I will take my leave since I have to take care of the creation of the kingdom." Andrew waved his hand while walking away. Alex also waved his hand but abruptly stopped when Andrew looked back, saying, "Also, congratulations on your engagement. Please invite me when you're married."

"O-oh!" Alex was startled while Margaretha looked away, embarrassed.

…

It took a moment, but the kingdom was finally built and Alex once again called into the capital. He was kneeling in the grand hall for the coronation of the first noble in their new country, Muivell Kingdom.
