"So, tell me your names and the positions you hold."
Owen didn't know the ten people who had passed the screening, so he asked them to introduce themselves first."
Your Majesty, I'm Viscount Nishizawa, serving as ......," everyone replied to Owen in turn, and as expected, they were currently holding inconspicuous petty official positions in the town hall."
My name is Celal Henry, Your Majesty."
The last person who looked like a scholar stroked his chest and said, "I am currently the president of the Magic Stone Research Association, and I am in charge of researching and making synthetic magic stones. ”"The Magician Research Society?"
Owen glanced at Celal curiously.According to the information gathered by previous spies, all the saltpeter and ash powder that White ordered to be forcibly purchased last year were sent to the Magic Stone Research Association.In other words, the recipe for black powder was explored and researched by the Magic Stone Research Association.There are not many people with this kind of ability within the realm of the kingdom, so Owen is a little interested in Cellar as a person."
So, black powder was researched by the members of the guild under your leadership, right?""
Black powder?"
Celal was stunned at first, but quickly reacted."
Oh!
Your Majesty, you're talking about explosive powder, it turns out that its real name is black powder, and it's been taught. ”He had learned that the first black powder was made in Frontier Town, and that White had somehow obtained it from there."
Yes, black powder was researched by our association."
Sélar frankly admitted.After a pause, he explained: "At that time, White Wells threatened to cut research funding, forcing us to study and analyze day and night before finally coming up with a decent result. ”Because the black powder developed by the Magic Stone Research Association was used by White in the war, Celal feared that Owen would punish them, so he explained more."
I see."
There is such a thing behind it, no wonder White can master the weapon of black powder so quickly, and Owen finally understands the reason.I have to say, this person, sometimes if you don't push it a little, you will never know how much potential you have."
However, the recipe for black powder that you have researched is not entirely correct.""
Not quite right?"
Hearing this, Celal frowned slightly, his curiosity for knowledge was completely aroused, and he hurriedly asked Owen."
Your Majesty, where is the incorrectness?
If the recipe is not right, why did the two black powders burn almost identically when we tested them?
This shouldn't be, what's wrong......
"Ahem. ”Owen coughed lightly and interrupted, "Let's talk about this later."
In addition, I am also interested in the research of synthetic magic stones in your association, so I will find a suitable time to visit. ”"The Magic Stone Research Association is looking forward to His Majesty's arrival."
Celal happily responded.It seems that Owen does not mean to blame the Magic Stone Research Association, which makes Searal breathe a sigh of relief.When I go back, I have to prepare well and present the research results of the association, and it would be better if I could take this opportunity to get more research funding, he thought."
That's it for today."
At this point, Owen began to expel the crowd."
You can leave, there are still some things in the kingdom castle that I need to take care of.I will inform you about the formation of the new town hall when the time comes. ”"I would like to remind you in advance that I am determined to establish a new system in the kingdom, and the method of governance will be greatly changed, and the traditional system of aristocratic feudal division will become a thing of the past."
Owen did not forget to issue an obituary at the end.Soon after the ten nobles left the council hall, Angelica and several captain-level officers entered."
What's going on with the search of the palace castle?"
Owen asked the officers.The officers in turn reported on the details of their area of responsibility.After roughly grasping the situation of the palace and castle, Owen thought for a moment and gave a disposal plan, letting the servants, cooks and others work as usual to ensure the normal operation of the castle, and the captured guards and knights were imprisoned first."
Your Majesty."
At this moment, Viscount Jarvis stepped forward."
Yesterday, while searching the castle of the royal palace, thirty-five beautiful women were found in the rooms of the harem.According to the person in charge, among them, twenty-four girls who are adults this month are scheduled to present their first night to White Wells in the near future. ”Yes?
First night?
Owen couldn't help but give a strange expression."
That's right, Your Majesty, a new royal decree was issued shortly after White Wells ascended the throne last year......"
Viscount Jarvis explained.White still does such a thing?!
It's really enviable......
Oh no, it's indignation!
Hearing this, Marpel clenched her fists, her eyes were full of anger, and Angelica showed an undisguised expression of disgust."
Scheduled?
In other words, did I mess with White's good deeds?
”After thinking about it, Owen waved his hand and said, "Since nothing happened, let's just let them go."
Also, remember to make an announcement announcing that the royal decree would be annulled immediately. ”"Yes."
Then Owen asked, "What about the other eleven women?"

”"They had been taken by White Wells on the night of the previous dedication and forced to stay.Five of them, reluctantly, were confined in their rooms and were not allowed to go out. ”Viscount Jarvis replied."
Well—" Owen sighed, "in that case, give them a sum of money as compensation, and let them go home." ”In addition, Owen couldn't think of any other good way, and the damage Wright caused to them could only be slowly repaired by time."
Understood."
As soon as the words fell, Viscount Jarvis suddenly remembered something important and continued: "By the way, Your Majesty, there is a woman who is already pregnant with White Wells's child, what should I do?"
”"What?!"
Owen's eyes widened in shock.They already have children of the royal family, so they can't just let them go, and if they are used by people with bad intentions, it will undoubtedly become a new trouble."
Uh-huh......"
After a moment of silence, Owen rose from his throne and said, "Take me over and see." ”Arriving at the door of the room where the pregnant woman was housed, Owen, Viscount Jarvis, Marpel, and Angelica opened the door and entered, while the rest waited outside.The woman was sitting on the edge of the bed, and when she saw Owen and his party break in, she subconsciously leaned inside, a little scared.You can see that her belly is slightly bulging, and she doesn't know how many months she has been pregnant.Raising his hand to Owen, Viscount Jarvis introduced to the woman: "This is the new king who has just defeated White Wells, and he heard about you and came here to check on the situation. ”"See, I've seen Your Majesty."
The woman hurriedly stood up and bowed to Owen in greeting.Noticing that the other party had been staring at her belly, she reached out to cover her belly, worried that the new king would be detrimental to her unborn child.After all, the child in the womb also has royal blood, and the new king may find it a hindrance.This lord is backed by a tech tycoon
