《My Magical System 》Chapter 211: Starting a village
Advertisement
Arthur briefly glanced behind him. Even until now, he disliked this person's two faces. He didn't mean the literal faces but the personality of this person.
A few days after the hero's return to the empire, early in the morning, Eman received a message from the palace.
It was a bright morning, and the sun was still young. It was the first day of a weekend, and Eman made a promise to his sister to come along with her.
It was the day of the month in which the nearest town from their house, the Town of Luna, had a unique festival. It was known as One Year Hill Dance Flower Viewing.
It was a rare occasion in which people of different social statuses would gather around the river.
Regardless, because of the sudden visitor, Eman had to change his plan for the day. After reading the content of the message, his mouth leaked a smile.
"Brother!"
His sister, Eina, called out at him. She saw him beside the table, holding a piece of paper in both hands.
He looked at her. "Sorry, Eina. We need to move out today."
"Eh?"
Question marks were floating around Eina's head.
Although Eman could see the sadness in her eyes, he chose to ignore it. He was looking forward to this flower viewing as well, but things occurred. He needed to start cultivating that land as soon as possible. Though he had to promise her for next year's festival.
Together with Eina and Aunt Claire, they traveled towards the old mining village, the Sunville Village.
Upon hearing her brother's words, Eina also felt excited. "Really bro?"
"Yeah."
"But isn't that place dangerous?"
Eman shook his head. "The empire's soldiers already did a clean-up operation in that place." He didn't tell her that it was him who commanded the army to reclaim the land. He had no intention of keeping it a secret as well.

"I see."
Eina mumbled silently as she leaned on her brother's shoulder.
If they took the shortest route, it only took about 5 days to reach the village. So it wasn't too far from their old home.
Eman just wanted to migrate as soon as possible. Their old house was already known by his enemies. He didn't feel secure in that place. If it was only him, he had many ways to escape from them, but he had Eina and Aunt Claire to think of.
Although he already captured the old man from the Gentlewind family, who knows when the other members of that family might find him. Also, the Assassin's guild knows that place. So if the Gentlewind family reached out to the Assassin's guild, there was a great chance that they figured out about him.
It was truly weird that they had yet to figure out about him. Probably, that old man hid the truth from his family. It also meant that only several people knew about the rape issue in the Goldenlotus family. All of these were just his hunch.
Regardless, he could put himself at ease in their new place.
They left at Saturday noon and arrived at the dust on Thursday.
When they arrived at the village, Eina seemed to be scared of something as she clung to her brother's arm. It was dilapidated, after all. And there was only the strong smell of death around.
The village was so empty at the moment. But if they looked around, there were some newly sprouted seeds at some parts of the village. They were the seeds that he ordered his soldiers to plant before they left the village and came back to the main city.
The irrigations were already in a good place. He just needed some workers for it.

After a day of looking around, "So, what is your plan?" Aunt Claire came and asked him. No matter how she looked at the village situation, it wasn't a place that an academy-level youth could manage.
However, Aunt Claire was surprised by the smile in his mouth. "I want to develop this land into a proper town."
She wasn't sure if it was just an empty word, but she noticed he was serious. Also, after Eman lost his memory, she noticed he became matured in everything.
"I see. I'm looking forward to it," she said. She wasn't expecting great things. If he failed, then they could go back to their old home. Many of their things were still left there. They could not bring them all at once even if they used spatial rings.
"How about manpower?" Aunt Claire asked the obvious. In starting a new village, they needed more people.
"Hehe," he chuckled. "Don't worry, aunt. I already posted some recruitment notices in some of the guilds in the capital," he replied. Though it was a lie. But Eman had his people inside his Lord's Domain. He could just summon them whenever he wants.
"Workers won't do," said Aunt Claire as she shook her head. "What the village needed right now were some residents."
Eman stopped briefly. He glanced at her. "People will naturally come when the land begins to develop. For now, developing this land is the most important thing."
Aunt Claire fell silent for a brief moment. "I see. Looks like you already thought about it in advance," she said.
Eman smiled and looked outside through the window.
Looking at the empty village, he could only let out a sigh. Though Eman wasn't a bit disheartened. He was actually excited. At least, he could do what he wanted to do in this village.
He knew that the village needed an all-around revision. He had to start from scratch.
Meanwhile, they were inside the demon aristocrat's former grand hall. Since it was the biggest and located in the center of the village, Eman decided to use it as their temporary shelter. At the moment, there were only three of them in this village.
The grand hall was quite big. It was the only two-story building among all the houses in the village. It was made of bricks and formed like a dome.
Eman planned to rebuild it, but in the meantime, he must focus on developing the land first.
The next morning, Aunt Claire was quite surprised when some people came to the village.
