The Supreme Sovereign System Chapter 28
Advertisement
The next day, Alfonso woke up earlier than usual, this was because he felt his leg was hurting, he didn't get used to it yet so he when to his table and grabbed his cane, this cane was just like morphine to him, it could alleviate his pain. After that, he got changed and went to the hall, Artemisa was already there, yesterday, she went with the wolf that she named it one, two, three, four and five.
"Because it is convenient" She said.
The wolves told her that the Jubila forest could be divided in four parts, the borderline part, the outer part, the inner part, and the center part, she and the wolves hunted in the outer part, there she hunted deer. Yesterday, they hunted 5 deer, that was already a lot. Artemisa cut the deer in parts and then the wolves put in the "refrigerator", the refrigerator was the named that Alfonso give to the space covered in snow that he kept his meat. Alfonso wanted to keep meat in the refrigerator until he has enough to distribute to the people in town.
"Right now, we have a huge problem with the distribution of goods, there is not a set process to follow, people here don't "trade" money for goods, they hunt their own food, we, as the "government" don't have anything to do give, the past lord spend all of our reserves and we can't force the people to pay tribute because they simply don't have money, for this , I have two paths now, first, use the capitalist form, the agriculture zone will give a huge harvest in three weeks I will assign half for us and half for selling, I get enough gold, and we start to exchange gold for goods, of course, I will you the population census before to know what jobs are suitable for each family; my second option is to use the communist form, I create my own currency and give the same amount of goods to every family, we already have the prime material for food. Each method had their pros and cons, if we use the first form, we will be tight on money and food, we will have to live with the minimum amount of food, but that's not main problem, the main problem is that people will know that this town have a way to get food, as a dead land, everyone thinks that this land is unfertile, in fact, our own neighbors think that Wasteland Valley will disappear with the horde, That's why I send Ribeiro to buy the seeds in cover, I want to keep everyone in the dark, at least , until we are capable of defending this town; on the other hand, the communism form have the main problem that will we isolated form the other towns, like we are a separate empire, if I do this, people will think that we abdicated from the Leitol empire and I won't be able to life with easy, plus, I won't be able to bring people with capabilities from other towns, and.... There is another problem…. The communism method hasn't worked on earth before... at least….. not with the real expectations of communism, I mean, I prepared to be an historian for along time, studying until I burned my eyebrows, I wouldn't want to gain the same amount of resources as a cleaner" Thought Alfonso.

As someone who was born in the capitalism era, he wasn't inclined to use the communist method.
"I must this carefully…" Thought Alfonso
While he was pondering, Demeter, who just woke up, went to the hall. Artemisa told Alfonso that Demeter always sleeps until late. After she arrived , Alfonso went to the dinner room, and they all had breakfast-lunch, the breakfast was made by Ribi, Ribi was the only servant in the manor, she was a woman of 40 something years old, Ribi is a quiet and polite woman, she doesn't have a family and have worked in this manor for 30 years, Alfonso tried to talk to her sometimes, however, she just bow to him and then go back to work.
"Well, although, she doesn't talk too much, she is impeccable in her work." Thought Alfonso while eating his breakfast. Although he was a lord, after he gave half of his food to the people in the commoner zone, he's meals always consisted in meat with water, with a little bit of rice.
"My lord, we are running out of meat and rice" Say Ribi.
"Artemisa brought some meat yesterday just a little bit of that for today's dinner, about the rice, Ribeiro will bring some in a week" Say Alfonso.
"As your orders, my lord" Say Ribi while bowing, after that, she went to cleaning.
"Artemisa, who is the hunting?" Asked Alfonso to Artemisa who was calming eating a piece of meat.
"Is good, there is a lot of wild animal in the outer zone, I will be taking one, two, three, four and five again today, also, I will be bringing two soldiers with me, they found me yesterday telling me that they wanted to help, so they will be my bags, I will be able to bring more food." Say Artemisa.

"That's great, keep the good work" Say Alfonso with a light smile.
"What about you Demeter? What are your plans? "Asked Alfonso.
"Well~ I don't have any powers now, so I was thinking of going to that Camel guide to teach him a thing or two about agriculture ~" Say Demeter with her usual candid smile.
"That will help a lot, Although I have some knowledge, I can't compare with the goddess of agriculture, thanks" Say Alfonso to Demeter.
After they finish their meal, each of them when in their own way, Alfonso was pondering and pondering about the economy issue.
After some time, he asked the system about it.
[Th system will not interfere with host decision, however, you have to be careful
Of with path you choose, because this decision could make you vulnerable to foreign enemies] Say the system with its robotic voice.
"….. If I want to exchange Drachmas for the currency of this world….. can I?" Asked to the system.
[Yes, host can exchange 10,000 pieces of golds for 1000 Drachmas] Say the system
"Oh!, then is 10 pieces of gold for 1 Drachma right?" Say Alfonso with enthusiasm.
[No, as the system said is 10,000 pieces of golds for 1000 Drachmas, host can't exchange less
Drachmas than this amount, for example if you want to exchange 999 Drachmas for gold, you can't, at the same time you can't exchange 1001 Drachmas, if you want more pieces of gold, you will need to exchange 2000 Drachmas ] Say the system.
"That's not fair…" Say Alfonso with a bitter smile, however the system didn't say anything else.
With this new information, Alfonso sat in his throne, after 1 hour, he stood up.
"I know what to do" Thought Alfonso.

Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz
