Chapter 781 Reclaiming the Altar and Awakening the Capital
A week after Vicente's group arrived in Grandis, the local forces had completely reclaimed an area of about 60 kilometers radius, with the capital in the center of the area.",
Vicente, Torne, and Lauren had split up around the kingdom's capital on the second day of their actions, each taking a group of men from the capital to occupy the conquered land.
With the powers of 3 Paragons and the high killing capacity of Vicente and Lauren, rapidly they eliminated over 12,000 creatures that were near the capital to put pressure on the city.
In just six days, Vicente built over 500 kilometers of fencing and 100 observation posts scattered throughout this vast territory.
He and his group regained the port area near the kingdom's capital, but also reached the area where the order's secret altar was located in that state.
Earlier, Vicente had found this place and let Rory use it for a while to build his family's bases in Diamond Province. That post had been lost in the dire situation the kingdom had recently found itself in, and the men from that post had moved to other cities in the kingdom or even died.
But now that Vicente had reclaimed the area where that post had stood, less than 50 kilometers from the capital, a new opportunity had opened up for the remaining population of Grandis!
Before returning to Grandis on the seventh afternoon since his return to the kingdom, Vicente recovered the altar of the order and left there the magical gems he had collected in the temple of Grandis, as well as some men of his family.
...
Back in the capital, Vicente entered the city again after six days away, and found a much happier and more hopeful city than the one he had left seven days ago.
There were fewer soldiers in the city, since most of the men of the Royal Army were now in the security area of the Grandis. On the other hand, more people were leaving the local exits, some returning to their jobs in the nearby mines and plantations, others were busy repairing the local harbor.
The main infrastructure for humans was largely around cities and villages, about 20% of a territory like Diamond Province.
Instead of trying to restore everything, Vicente wanted to restore that 20% before thinking about more!
The king understood Vicente's plans and left soon after, leaving the young Fuller and Lina alone as they continued to walk through downtown.
"Are you going to Metal City after this?" Lina asked him.
"Hmm, I'm going to restore the province's railroads and then go through Snow Province and help the major cities in the area. Then I'll go to Metal City to see Nina again." Vicente replied as he entered the Blacksmiths' Association.
"I will go with you to the Snow Province and then return to the capital. My family needs me, and I feel you need to pay more attention to Nova than anyone else when you return."
Lina, Layla and Sarah were aware of their position towards him, as well as not getting in his way when he was with one or the other. All three had been through major crises with him over the last few years, but had been by his side most of the time, their needs being met from time to time.
Nova had gone years with no attention from Vicente. It was only fair that they give him and her some space as soon as he returned to Metal City.
"All right."
He smiled at the princess, pleased with his women's behavior.Sarah would arrive in Metal City along with the rest of the group that had left for that city at that time. Meanwhile, Layla had already told Vice that she would do more or less the same as Lina had just told him.
That way, he wouldn't have to worry about his women's conflicts of interest and would soon start producing 4th and 5th grade artifacts, while Lina would return to her activities in the capital.
