In the current situation, successfully reclaiming such a large area of land will only be met with praise.
As for whether any rules were broken, who would care?
Or rather, who would dare to voice an opinion?
As for the benefits this action brings to Kana and the Night Watchers,
they are numerous.
First, with just this one campaign, the Night Watchers will directly become a well-known force here.
And with the backing of the Holy Light Church and the Third Prince, along with a new Count of the Cohen Kingdom,
the Night Watchers will naturally possess power.
They will have the legitimate right to act openly in this country.
The Night Watchers also solve the issue of legality on the surface.
And by taking this land, goods from the Eastern Wilderness can swiftly be transported into the borders of the Cohen Kingdom.
Fueled at extreme speed by the Pointer Trading Company.
With these goods, they quickly seize the market segment of the entire country.
Then, through the ports of the Cohen Kingdom, the Pointer Trading Company will carry these goods to other countries.
Swiftly enabling the Night Watchers' Night Patrol to start intelligence gathering.
And Kana continued to speak.
"Once the land is reclaimed, those damned nobles will certainly try to find a way to return.
But within the reclaimed lands, the Holy Light Church and the Night Watchers will firmly hold the power.
I believe that through your own operations, the appointment of officials will also become your people.
Thus, even if these nobles return to their territories, you will find they have long lost control over their lands.
Their territories are in your hands, and even though the nobles hold nominal rights, they will be powerless in actual operations."
As he spoke, Kana pointed to himself.
"To reclaim power, these nobles might naturally take action by force, even you cannot say anything.
But the Night Watchers will teach them well that force will solve nothing."
"These reclaimed lands naturally render the nobles powerless. More than half of the territory's nobles have lost their rightful authority. Can they still have a significant voice in the noble council?
When more than half of the territory is as I described, how likely is it that you ascend the throne?"
Kana's words echoed throughout the room.
The future he envisioned was so idyllic that even Lawrence and Alicia couldn't help but dream.
It's known that Alicia's Holy Light Church has been struggling to develop well in the Cohen Kingdom, facing restrictions everywhere.
Soon after, Kana delivered his final words.
"Those nobles have colluded with the cultists, and among the cities not yet fallen, how many are already harboring hidden crises?
Even if we do nothing, these nobles will be destroyed by the insanity of the cultists.
You should know these cultists, who worship the Evil God, do not care about supposed power, fame, or country.
All they want is subversion and chaos."
This is the reason for Kana's actions.
There's no need for Kana and his people to truly reclaim the fallen national lands completely.
The nobles will destroy themselves because of the cultists.
One could say,
if Kana does not want to see this country become a haven for cultists,
then he must act.
As long as he begins to act, even if he does not cooperate with Lawrence, Lawrence will become the king of this country.
Then cooperation is naturally the best path.
To swiftly clean this country.
Giving the Night Watchers a foundation to rapidly develop and spread as a springboard.
Lawrence calmed down.
Looking at Kana.
"To achieve all our goals, you must indeed have the capability to take down this region as you claimed."
Kana smiled and said,
"Then, make a verbal pledge.
The Night Watchers will take this area, and when the time comes, you will make a vow. And the Night Watchers will cooperate with the Holy Light Church to endorse you as the king of this country."
Lawrence looked at him and nodded slightly.
