Age Of Islands: I Can See Through All Things Chapter 9
Advertisement
After testing his strength, Jack brought his men around and returned to where the slaves were.
According to Jack's guess, since a few hours had passed, the slaves should have already finished eating and started building their own houses already!
He had bought a large amount of food this time. It was enough for over a thousand people to eat and drink for a month on the island.
This was why Jack arranged for everyone to eat freely, only then would they have energy to work.
But when he came to the place where the slaves were, Jack was dumbfounded.
The thousand slaves were already in chaos.
Some of them had just started to draw water and cook.
Some forcefully snatched other people's food.
There were even some who did not do anything. They directly beg whoever had cooked for food!!
This scene made Jack want to curse.
He really did not expect this outcome!
It had been several hours, and the island had stopped accelerating already.
The discomfort should have passed a long time ago.
But these people?
Jack was not the only one. Even the Fox-eared Girl, Eugene, and the others could not stand it anymore.
"Master, why are these slaves like this?" The Fox-eared Girl said angrily.
"Master, let me teach them a lesson," Eugene stepped forward.
Jack shook his head.
That would not do
If Eugene went up, someone would definitely get injured. In this era where medical treatment was scarce, once someone got injured, they would be easily infected.
Everyone here was a strategic asset for his development, and he could not afford to lose them.
But he could not just let it be.
Suddenly, Jack had an idea.
Then, he walked up the hill and shouted to the people below, "Everyone, stand up immediately. Those who disobey will die."
In an instant, Jack unleashed the Conqueror's Haki in his body.

Instantly, the sky changed color.
The lazy slaves' expressions froze. It was as if they had seen their natural enemy. Their entire body trembled.
No one dared to delay and hurriedly stood up.
Just as Jack was about to scold him, the system suddenly notified him.
"Congratulations to the host for having more than a thousand slaves. You have unlocked the Virtual Menu Skill, Inspection, you can activate it with just a thought."
Hearing the system's voice, Jack was stunned.
Then, he activated the Inspection skill.
In an instant, a transparent gray square frame appeared in front of him.
[Name: Alice]
[Race: Fox-eared Girl]
[Class: Maid]
[Class Level: None]
[Loyalty: 99]
[Note: Due to your kindness, this young girl who was on the verge of death was saved. Hence, this innocent girl now treats you as her master and is willing to do anything for you, even if it means death.]
The sudden appearance of the menu startled Jack.
After reading it, Jack could not help but laugh.
It was a godly skill!
Especially that information on loyalty.
Was Alice so loyal to him?
Jack could not help but look over.
The only thing in Alice's eyes was Jack.
If Jack asked her to die now, she would agree without hesitation.
Could this skill only be used on humans?
Then, Jack looked at the big tree at the side.
[Name: Oak Tree]
[Introduction: The most common type of tree in Noah Continent. Its leaves are thick and green throughout the four seasons. It is very suitable for planting in cities.]
[However, due to the abundance of leaves and branches, and because it is not affected by the autumn season, it tends to attract bugs.]
[Note: None]
He could even see that?
Jack could not help but laugh.
The system was simply too powerful!
If it was used properly, it would definitely provide him with great help, especially that information on loyalty.

Jack was, after all, a modern transmigrator.
Although he had been an executive before, his grasp of the human heart was not that accurate.
Especially when so many people were around him, he would be easily influenced.
If he used soul contracts to control these people, it would inevitably cause them to develop negative emotions.
It was not beneficial to the construction of a kingdom.
But loyalty solved this big problem.
On one hand, he could detect if the other party was loyal without them knowing.
On the other hand, it also saved him the trouble of being unable to read people!
Then, Jack looked at Eugene.
[Name: Eugene]
[Race: Human]
[Class: Swordsman]
[Level: Silver]
[Loyalty: 89]
[Note: He has been a Silver Swordsman for long enough, but because his body has not accumulated enough foundation, it is difficult for him to break through to become a Gold Swordsman.]
After reading Eugene's introduction, Jack could not help but raise his eyebrows.
It seemed that the purpose of this Inspection skill was not that simple.
He could actually see the inadequacy of someone who could not advance.
Also, wasn't Eugene too loyal to him?
It seemed like this person was worth nurturing. In the future, when he found something useful and gave Eugene help, he would obtain a good subordinate!
Jack lost himself in the usage of the system, unaware of the time.
At this moment, everyone was kneeling in front of Jack, waiting for his arrangement.
No one dared to move. Jack's Conqueror's Haki was too terrifying.
At this moment, Jack made them feel the pressure that could only come from a higher-up.
They had to respect all of Jack's arrangements.
After a while, Jack came to his senses.
Looking at the people kneeling in front of him, he could not help but feel extremely proud.
However, he still appeared calm and collected on the surface.
Then, he said, "I'm very disappointed in your behavior. I gave you the greatest freedom, but look at what you've done."
"A few hours have passed. There are still people who haven't eaten, people who haven't cooked, and those who have finished eating are just lying down and resting. The things I arranged for you all to do were actually not carried out at all!"
With Jack's words, the pressure of the Conqueror's Haki became more and more intense. In the end, everyone's head could not hold on anymore and they were just short of being buried in the ground!
Now, they were also very terrified. They did not know how this new master would punish them.
"Master, these slaves are simply lawless. Let me make an example out of them," Eugene stood out and said.
"That's too cruel!" The Fox-eared Girl could not help but say, "Why don't we give them another chance? We can control the amount of their food to motivate them?"
Jack frowned as he looked at these people!
Were all their solutions so simple and crude?
Oh goodness, these people were all his precious resources.
How could he let them die so easily?
Moreover, the slaves did this because no one controlled them.
This was similar to Africa in his previous world.
Africa was vast and had many people.
However, they lived in poverty and needed international funding.
However, when the foreign companies entered and united them, through proper structure and management, these poor Africans still exploded with productivity.
However, the people of this world did not understand these things.
He had to do it himself!

The Sorcerer
This is a fanfiction based on Harry Potter, written by JK Rowling. BEFORE YOU LEAVE, as fan fiction isn't what royal road is known for unless your book is called Borne of Caution, hear me out. This is based 200 years into the future. Hogwarts will be very different, and besides some references, we will follow no characters from the book. In my opinion, this is more of a new, mature, and more realistic version of that universe. If we want to put an analogy to it, I'm borrowing the house, but it's my furniture and things on the inside. Synopsis - 200 years since the battle of Hogwarts. The muggles know - magic is no longer a secret. Wizards and witches show their magical traits much later in life now, their powers weaker than previous generations... and to make matters worse, there is a steady decline in the wizarding population. Follow along as Lux, a muggle-born, shows the world what one determined young wizard can do.
