Lord Of The World: I Become The Lord Of The Desert From The Start



'Ta! Ta!'

The horse hooves made a unique sound as they stepped on the hard stone path.

Richard looked through the glass window at the street that constantly moved backward and fell into deep thought.

The most vital thing in this trip to Solan City was the Crimson Moon.

Today was December 1st, and it would release the new expansion pack on December 28th.

He only had 20 days left.

Moreover, the old man at the Red Dragon General Store reminded the three-month deadline to retrieve god's heart was about to expire.

He had to make sufficient preparations during this period.

"I hope I can get what I want this time."

Richard stroked the ancient god statue in silence.

After a long time.

'Kacha!'

The carriage turned to a corner and slowly came to a halt.

"Esteemed Lord, we have arrived at the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce."

The coachman in front dressed neatly and had a hint of elegance as he opened the door respectfully.

It startled Richard. He thanked him gently and stepped out of the carriage.

He had already arranged things when he got into the carriage.

He stood at the entrance of the spacious manor and was sparingly absent-minded.

This luxurious manor was now his private property...

He smiled. Life was unpredictable.

He walked toward the manor. A central post was seven or eight meters high behind the closed gate. The two half-feathered soldiers immediately opened the door to welcome him when they heard Richard's voice.

"Lord Richard is back!"

This news immediately caused a sensation in the manor.

Richard's expression did not change. He stepped into the manor under the respectful and humble welcome of the half-feathered soldiers.

On his return, he found that other than the original silver dwarves and half-feathered soldiers, most were unfamiliar faces.

Vale had just hired or bought a staff member.

They planted new plants in the initially empty manor.

He felt like he had been reborn.

The new employees cautiously and curiously looked at the imposing Richard. 

"Was this the real owner of the Violet Merchant Association?"

That aura was honestly awe-inspiring.

Richard saw the excited Vale at the main hall entrance as he arrived.

The current leader of the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce cupped his chest and bowed before everyone.

"Welcome back, Lord Richard."

These words directly announced who the true ruler of the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Association was.

Richard looked at haggard Vale and comforted him softly.

"You've worked hard during this period. Later, you can cultivate an executive team and assign some non-main tasks to the team.

"You will be responsible for the main task yourself. At the same time, you will supervise and correct the work of the executive team regularly. This will enormously increase work efficiency.

"The most important thing for a manager is not to do things personally, but to use people."

This was Richard's grandest thought.

The word 'employment' was the quintessence of the quintessences.

He had made good use of Butler Karu. So he could spare some energy for other areas during the early stages of Twilight City's development.

It was the same for Bloodhoof City, Fortress City, and Vale, who ruled the underworld.

Vale was in high spirits, although he appeared haggard.

A smile appeared on his face.

"Lord, I understand what you're saying, but this is the first time I've taken on such an important mission."

"I don't want to disappoint you and Teacher Karu."

Richard was momentarily stunned and felt relieved when he saw the determination in Vale's eyes.

He saw a familiar light in their eyes. Xina, Karu, Sam, and Adele... Even countless residents of Twilight City had the same spark.

Faith.

They were willing to give up everything for Twilight City!

The emotions in his heart were sparingly subtle….. What he had sacrificed was not in vain eventually.

"Take care of yourself and rest... I believe you have your prudence. I won't disturb you."

A bright smile appeared on Vale's face when he heard this.

He nodded fiercely.

"Lord, I won't let you down."

The feeling of being trusted was exceptionally delightful.

After a simple conversation, they entered the house and sat down. Richard went straight to the point after the maid had served hot tea and left. 

"This time, there is another vital matter apart from seeing the development of the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce… The Crimson Moon."

Vale straightly sat up and looked at Richard's solemn gaze. His tone became serious.

"Lord Richard, I've been using all sorts of powers to search for information about the Crimson Moon, but we have just established the Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce and has too few connections, so I haven't found anything.

"Even Her Highness Christy thought the same.

"But a few days ago, Chairman Windsor suddenly came and asked me to tell you she knows about the Crimson Moon."

Vale paused for a moment and lowered his voice.

"Chairman Windsor's expression is too calm. There could be some secrets that outsiders can't investigate..."

Richard was lost in thought.

"Chairman Windsor didn't reveal any more information?"

Vale shook his head.

"She only told me to tell you that she will discuss everything on your return."

Richard nodded and pondered on the problem afterward.

All the players searched for information about the Crimson Moon, so the natives could not know about it. However, it was interesting that the princess of Solan City, Christy, could not find it even if she used the power of Solan City. But Windsor knew about it.

Moreover, the other party had told him the news by name...

Among them, he was pleased with himself.

However, there was too little information, so he could not draw any conclusions.
