In the end, Nathan and the others chose to stay in the empire. It wasnât that he didnât care about the dynasty, he just couldnât be bothered with the place he stayed on this continent.
It would be the same for him because he never had the intention of staying here permanently.
Besides, he was rather curious about the situation on this continent. Asking the dynasty would be harder compared to Reginaâs.
He knew Regina personally after all.
In addition, he wouldnât stay for long. He had a few plans in mind, such as visiting Lunaâs brother to check on his condition. Gregory should also be taken care of.
Once everything was settled, Regina personally led them to their accommodation.
"This is your room. The two ladies have their rooms..." Regina wanted to tell them that Luna and Sera would have their own rooms, but Luna cut her off. "Weâre good with staying in the same room."
"..." Regina was a bit speechless. She was familiar with polygamy, but most of the time, they would separate their ways. After all, most wives would have their own needs as well as personalities.
That way, people rarely slept together with multiple wives at the same time.
So, it was quite surprising that Luna and Sera didnât mind sharing a bed.
Or at least, that was what she thought. Lunaâs common sense wasnât necessarily the same as that of the people on this continent. Sera was already used to something like this. It wasnât like she ever got bothered by such a thing.
Nathan tilted his head in confusion before saying, "Weâre fine with one room."
"I see." Regina smiled wryly.
"By the way, what is the condition of this continent? Are you doing fine after defeating the Godfather?" Nathan asked, gesturing for her to come inside and talk about it.
Regina didnât mind, so she entered together.
Once inside, Regina spoke, "The situation on the continent is rather stable. Thanks to the Godfatherâs death, people are thinking that theyâre freed from his terror. In addition, the people who are originally stationed around the city can be moved to the front line.
"There is currently no sharp influx of aliens, so weâre able to push them back just fine.
"Thanks to your cloud-repelling devices, the food supply has become stable. Although the food is quite monotonous right now, itâs still better to have food than not having any.
"And with that food, people are gradually returning to their previous lives.
"The stability has increased, and the magic guns have been introduced, which results in even stronger defense of the front line. People donât have to worry about the front line anymore, and the economy is gradually returning to its original state.
"Itâs still not the same, but I think it will just get better from now on."
Nathan looked down, contemplating. This was the same thing that happened on his continent.
It looked like there was no need for him to worry about this continent. They would have no problem withstanding the aliens even without him.
Regina asked, "Are you sure you can remove the ash clouds?"
Nathan nodded. "I know youâre worried, but my team and I have done so on our continent. If you just remove a portion of them from where they come from, the sky will remain open for the sunlight to come in.
"Thatâs what we will do here as well. Hopefully, this will be enough to restore the living conditions to their peak."
Regina smiled. "Itâs going to be hard to restore everything. Due to the chaotic times, stores were robbed and closed. A lot of things were experiencing their own challenges. We had to rebuild them first before we could recover.
"However, we can finally focus on the aliens this time, so the hope should be there. Once we recover, the continentâs condition will stabilize. No, now that everyone has experienced hardship, they will fight for a better tomorrow this time."
Nathan couldnât help but agree. When they had seen the bitterness, they would definitely not want to experience it again. So, they would definitely hope for the best.
Nathan crossed his arms before asking, "How about the front line?"
"As I said earlier, the magic guns allow us to fight better. They are very good as suppressive weapons, even better than normal arrows. This way, more and more aliens can be killed, and the summoners will have more time to rest.
"Although the cost canât be ignored, we should be able to handle the aliens."
Nathan frowned. "No influx of aliens, but have you checked deeper into the alien territory?"
She shook her head. "No. We donât go that deep. Right now, our priority is the improvement of the kingdom, so we want to stabilize our condition first. I believe the dynasty is doing the same thing."
Nathan nodded in understanding. In that case, they couldnât find out anything weird that was happening in the alien territory. Fortunately, the dynasty and the empire had agreed to send their scouts to check the alien territory, so they could get a picture of where they would come from.
Nathan asked, "Right? I think thatâs enough for the heavy stuff. How are you these days?"
"Iâm good. After meeting you, I have been away from the battlefield for quite some time, handling all the paperwork.
"Well, I canât really abandon my post, so after all the magic guns and other things have stabilized, I will go back to the front line.
"I guess it will take more time, considering you have just told us that the cloud-repelling device can be repurposed into a charging device. So, I have to supervise the entire matter."
Nathan chuckled. "No one can take care of it?"
Regina shook her head helplessly. "They thought I was the closest one to you when dealing with the Godfather, so it was better for me to supervise everything because they believed you told me more."
Nathan was speechless, but he couldnât really argue with their point. "Well, isnât it fine? Take it as youâre having a long vacation."
Regina rolled her eyes.
