Great Nobleman.

Chapter 1983 Project Acceleration!
Despite facing numerous criticisms at last night's banquet, Celine even attempted to challenge the patriarch's authority late into the night.

However, this did not affect Brand's good mood when he woke up this morning.

He woke up again amidst the entreaties of the ladies, and left the bedroom alone to wash up.

Then they went to the main building's terrace, greeted Rowling with good morning, and drank a sip of refreshing mixed animal milk.

Then, while enjoying the refreshing breeze of the flower-filled bay, we sat down to savor the delicious breakfast carefully prepared by Rowling.

Meanwhile, Rowling was also recounting the morning news:
"The main force of the [Radiant Hall] on the southwestern battlefield of Dwarf Village has now basically completed its withdrawal."

According to the latest information released today by the coalition command.

One week later, we will conduct the final round of exchanges of war reparations and agreements to bring the war to a complete end..."

"On the battlefield of the Eternal Night Forest, the powerful warriors and advanced legions of various races on the continent have completely crushed all the Swidin continent swamp and cave races that have not yet fled the battlefield area."

At this time, they have begun the final cleaning.

It is estimated that the cleaning task will be successfully completed in about half a month..."

"At that time, our coalition of all races on the continent of Farns should officially declare the complete end of this continental war that took place on our own land."

The themes for all races on the continent after the war will be peace, friendship, and alliances…

Enjoying breakfast while listening to the news, served by Rowling.

Brand gradually began to think about the things he needed to do next.

He currently holds a sinecure as the highest-ranking commander of a local theater of operations in the southwestern battlefield of the Dwarf Village.

A week later, when the southwestern battlefield of the Dwarf Village was declared successfully concluded, he would definitely need to go there to make an appearance and finalize the affairs there.

In addition, with the war over, the empire will obviously hold an important noble council to discuss the next phase of development plans.

One of the most significant factors affecting them is the further expansion of maritime trade.

In response, Morning Flower Territory has already stockpiled a considerable number of high-end merchant ships of the "Amber Type I".

Not only do they have enough ships to meet their own needs, but they also have a considerable number of ships available for sale.

They can also take this opportunity to dispose of the old ships that have been in service for many years.

Regarding this matter, all the major shipyards in the empire will surely take the same action.

In the future, their empire will surely usher in a great age of exploration in the field of trade.

Besides maritime trade.

Their trade with the continent of Osia will certainly not stop.

Because their war has ended, there will obviously be a significant surplus of war materials.

The Empire will clearly continue to sell useful war supplies to the continent of Osia.

Besides trade, the end of each war usually meant that a new group of nobles would emerge in the empire who would achieve upward social mobility through their military achievements.

From this perspective, Brand felt that most of their empire's remaining territories would likely be exchanged this time.

The [Floral County] under his jurisdiction should also see some newcomers.

With that in mind, Brand began to check the resource situation in the area surrounding their Morningflower Territory in the simulated world.

After discovering that only some low-value resource points remained in the surrounding area.

Brand also abandoned the idea of ​​expanding his territory.

The Morning Blossom Domain is actually quite large within the scope of duchys.

However, his impressive military achievements are enough to support his continued expansion of territory.

While I was pondering.

Rowling suddenly brought up something special:

"As the war is about to end, the empire will obviously gradually lift the martial law imposed during the war."

Therefore, many foreign powers have recently submitted visit requests to our empire.

This also includes the [Crimson Ring].

From what I understand, they seem to have prepared many goods that can effectively ward off the bitter cold, attempting to open up the market in our empire's northern border." Hearing this, Brand asked curiously:
Has the Crimson Ring within the Empire contacted you?

Rowling nodded and said:

"They have indeed tried to contact me, and they introduced some of the goods they have prepared through the demons under my command."

With the war nearing its end, the empire's long-dormant commerce is about to begin its expansion.

The "Crimson Ring" is now a key development area within our empire.

Upon hearing this, Brand nodded in understanding.

Years ago, Rowling was authorized by him to manage matters related to demons.

She's definitely the first to know what's going on with the Crimson Ring.

Of course, these minor business matters are left to Free Iris and Chris to consider.

He is now more concerned with Rowling's path to becoming the Demon King.

Upon hearing the "Crimson Ring" here, Brand also considered making some contact with them soon to express their needs.

With that in mind, Brand also planned to have Rowling take a trip to the Imperial Capital to publicly visit the diplomatic garrison of the Crimson Ring on behalf of Morningflower Territory.

After chatting with Rowling and enjoying a delicious breakfast,

Brand wandered around the castle for a while before finally arriving at the research department in the library tower.

He then convened all the professional mages in the library who had joined the [Summoning Greatsword - Prototype] production project in a large conference room.

Once everyone had arrived, Brand asked with a smile:
"You've been studying the design brochure for quite some time now."

How is it now?

What are the areas where you are unable to do it?
I'm going to start arranging your follow-up study plans!

After Brand finished speaking, Anna, as the person in charge, quickly handed over a thick research report and explained:
"After all, it's a divine artifact, so it's indeed quite difficult to make."

However, it's not entirely impossible for us.

However, there are many difficulties that we cannot find good solutions to in the short term…

Listening to Anna's explanation, I flipped through the research report in my hand.

After seeing the clearly listed pages of technical challenges that urgently needed to be overcome...

Brand also showed a satisfied smile.

Knowing where the problem lies is a good thing.

His biggest fear was that the library staff would have no way to start.

The "Summoning Sea Halberd Prototype Design Book" is a direct copy of the "Deep Sea Halberd Design Book," although it is far behind the current technology.

However, it is not something that ordinary professional mages below the master level can understand.

The current situation clearly demonstrates that a significant portion of the monks in the current library, specializing in various fields, have come into contact with a great deal of knowledge from the masters.

They might even be on the verge of becoming masters!
With that in mind, after Anna, the chief person in charge and the highest person in charge of the field of alchemy, as well as the highest persons in charge of other magical professional fields, finished reporting on the research progress, he also asked some detailed questions.

Brand smiled and nodded:
"In that case, you should all be mentally prepared."

This project needs to be accelerated.

I will invite several masters from the Ordnance Department to give you courses on relevant knowledge.

When the time comes, you all need to seize the opportunity and not slack off!

Upon hearing this, the ladies from the library below the stage all nodded solemnly.

They are now full of energy to complete this first artifact made entirely by their North Holland family!
After learning about the project in detail, Brand wasted no time and ended the meeting immediately. He then sent a letter of inquiry to the Imperial Armaments Department.

That afternoon, Brand went to the Imperial Armaments Department and reached an agreement with the Director of the Imperial Armaments Department, Mr. Sanders Dahl.

Brand didn't have to pay anything; the masters of the Armory were happy to make contact with the library.

They only hoped that if Brand could continue to share such a good thing as the [Supreme Teleportation Array] with them in the future.

Brand readily agreed, saying he'd discuss it further later.
