Chapter 66: Directory Government - Concealed Discourse
We set out for the capital, Lumiere, with Hassan and Shandra.
It was late at night.
The group had lit campfires around the area and sat as I talked to Hassan, their bureaucrat.
"So you're saying you've already taken control of about half of the Iberian Peninsula?"
Hassan has a calm and serious personality, befitting his position.
Despite his different skin color, his stylish beard and slight forehead wrinkles suggested he was in his 40s.
"That is correct, Marquis. Our brothers are already fighting united under King Kroxx."
Hassan didn't say it outright, but it couldn't be easy to stand against the port of Porto, which is supported by the Abyss Corporation, and the barbarian tribes.
Food shortages must be the biggest problem for barbarian tribes, especially given their chronic issue of relying on hunting and looting, because they lack proper ports and trade routes.
