Chapter 99 - 31: Gray’s Reforms (Second Release)
After the great victory at Asperburg, Isaac Kingdom welcomed a brief period of peace.
With the disappearance of Benedict II and Gray’s support for the young Bob, who the Church refused to crown, it was only natural that Gray would govern during this period. After all, only Gray, as both a noble and a Holy Knight with the prestige of a war victor, had the authority to do so.
Hmm... This was Gray’s first time in governance. Every first comes with its share of unexpected events. Everyone had anticipated this.
This included Yilin, Count Gruglu, the two demons watching from the sidelines, Dean, Grand Master Andrew, and even the Church watching Gray from afar.
However, they all underestimated Gray.
On the second day of his official governance, Gray sounded the horn of reform. His first decree was to... distribute money. Yes, to give money to the residents.
It was a very simple and effective way to increase support.
When hearing this, those who hoped Gray would fail, especially the Church and neighboring royal families, laughed. After all, many kings attempted such things before without much result, as it usually proved to be a formality. With so many people, how much money could you distribute?
However, they didn’t laugh for long. In just one day, their laughter ceased.
