System vs Rebirth

Duke Raymond's expression turned grim. He had never thought that Noel was planning to expand his influence by using the royal family's money.

The moment it happened, the Ardagan family would become much stronger than before. The royal family had no choice but to be inferior to the Ardagan family after that.

And with the plan for expansion, the Ardagan family might become the center of the kingdom.

That was why they couldn't allow this to happen.

Duke Raymond said, "It is such a big project, there's no way the kingdom can do it right away. We have to think about the resources and other things first."

Noel had expected this answer. Even if they just told them they would bring it up during the royal hearing and create the plan, they could simply not make any plans or just make some bad plans, which couldn't pass the inspection.

"I understand. The road itself is the one connecting the whole kingdom, so I hope that the royal family can consider this matter positively." Noel nodded calmly.

Duke Raymond didn't expect that Noel would back down so quickly.

However, he soon heard whispers from all parties.

"A road, huh?"

"Bringing materials requires a lot of money and time. If they can actually do much better by using the road and the new invention, won't it make the logistics of the whole country much faster?"

"Indeed. Unlike the battleship and the airship, this invention seemed to be much better."

"That's true. Those two inventions can only show their might on the battlefield. Meanwhile, if that trailer thing increased the logistics of the entire kingdom, the effect would be much better."

"But that would make the Ardagan family become the most powerful family in the kingdom since they are the only ones who can produce it."

"But if we don't help him this time, what if he brings the technology to another kingdom?"

"At the end of the day, we still don't know why the Ardagan family remains in the kingdom. If he wants it, the Greenwood Kingdom and the Zaecuria Kingdom will welcome him with an open arm."

"That's true. Is it because he wants to take revenge for his parents' execution, considering they were executed because they were simply on the opposite side?"

"I heard they did it to seize the Ardagan family's wealth. It could be said that even if the royal family gave him the funds to build a road, they were just handing over the previous wealth that was seized from his late father."

"This…"
