There are many ruthless bosses living in my territory

Then, Muzan subconsciously stood behind Lister.

The aftereffects of the abuse are still there.

"Teacher Liszt!" x2

Yahiko and Konan were both a little anxious. They really wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Lister as soon as possible. What if they really messed up?

Age Spot walked up to Liszt, first glanced at Muzan who was hiding in the shadow behind Liszt, and then stopped observing her.

After three seconds, Madara said nothing, so Lister spoke first.

"Mr. Madara, the villa has been decorated a few days ago. You are welcome to live here anytime."

Madara nodded slowly.

"Take me to have a look. I plan to train them here until they need actual combat."

"No problem at all."

Liszt responded with a smile, and then spoke to Muzan behind him.

"Help Yahiko and Konan with their treatment, just follow the set standards."

Muzan looked at Madara fearfully, and the next second he appeared behind Yahiko and Konan, and inserted his index fingers into the back of their necks.

Although it was not the first time, the two still felt extremely uncomfortable psychologically.

Even though the process wasn't painful at all...

Afterwards, Liszt took Ban to choose a villa and arranged for every meal to be prepared by his maids.

There was nothing unexpected or unusual along the way.

Madara still spoke very little, but Lister could feel that his icy heart had melted a little.

Perhaps one day in the future, he will be able to see Uchiha Madara regain his sincerity and "love".

Chapter 52: Winter in Red Maple Territory

Two months have passed since Ban decided to live in Red Maple Territory permanently.

When the cold north wind crossed the Winter Mountains, it quickly arrived at the Red Maple Territory.

As the cold air passed by, clusters of snow filled the place, covering Liszt's castle with a layer of white clothes.

Winter is here.

Liszt stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass window in the office, holding a cup of coffee in his right hand and admiring the snow scene outside.

He could see the rising winter sun, the faint shadow of Maple Town, Reina and other guards doing morning exercises in the castle courtyard, and Yahiko and Konan who were training with them.

Both of them grew a little taller.

Nothing special happened in these two months, but there are still many things that need to be talked about.

For example, Yuri sent a team of engineers to Red Maple Territory for an investigation and planned out the circuit and water systems. Finally, they decided to build a base inside the hill below Red Maple Castle and first build a biochemical power generation reactor.

The engineer captain who had lived in Hongfeng for two months excitedly told Lister that with just a little modification, their biochemical reactor in this world could provide even more power and would not even require people to be stuffed in.

They found a large number of unknown microorganisms, and the biochemical reactor can extract energy from the biomass of these microorganisms to generate electricity. In the future, they only need to replenish nutrients to the microorganisms regularly.

This was a big surprise, as it meant that if Hongfengling wanted to popularize electricity, it would not need thermal power generation, nor would it need to go to great lengths to find coal; all the coal could be used for steelmaking.

Apart from that, the good news keeps coming.

The roots of the white vegetation species have spread throughout the entire Red Maple Territory. All kinds of biological waste thrown into the fertilizer pit can be degraded into nutrients at the fastest speed, so there is a bumper harvest of grain.

With food security, Lister dared to add more full-time soldiers.

Thus, the Red Maple Lord, which has more than 600 residents, all of whom are young and strong, has a total of 80 full-time soldiers and 20 ninjas.

Correct!

Lister once again established a new institution, the Red Maple Ninja Village, which specializes in training ninjas.

The first Kage was Erza, one of his maids. She found twenty people from the subjects and took the time to teach them how to become ninjas.

There are not only them but also registered ninjas including Courteney, all the maids, Yahiko and Konan.

Originally, Lister wanted to put all the soldiers on the list, but the system fairy Nicole told him that he couldn't take advantage of loopholes. Only ninjas who practiced chakra and conformed to the concept of ninja in the ninja world could receive the blessing of the system.

There is no other way. The territory needs orthodox soldiers.

But there is no need to feel regretful, as he is now able to normalize his Shikai Zanpakutō. The soldiers blessed with his [King's Army] will train more efficiently and are equally strong.

Today, the infrastructure construction and military training of Red Maple Territory are on the right track, and we just need to follow the procedures.

This winter we just need to let Cortini focus on education and raise the literacy rate in the territory first. Once the education is done well, there will be more talents in the future.

Liszt took a sip of coffee in silence.

Apart from matters concerning the territory, matters concerning recruiting people from another world were also going relatively smoothly.

Although the implementation of the Parliament of All Worlds seems to be a long way off, the situation is moving in a positive direction.

Although Madara didn't look much different, through communication with Yahiko and Konan, we learned that Madara was no longer taciturn and would eat every meal. When they failed in the actual battle in the Rain Country, Madara would take the initiative to save them.

They both commented that Madara would occasionally act more humane. Unfortunately, they never discovered Black Zetsu because they always stayed with Madara when they returned to the ninja world.

But as long as Madara is still there, Black Zetsu will only be a small obstacle.

As for Aizen, he has hardly appeared in the Red Maple Territory recently.

When he came last month, Aizen said that he was conducting an important experiment that required all his strength and energy, so he would not come recently. But he said that maybe he would have prepared something for the transaction when he came next time.

Liszt was very much looking forward to it, and he also wanted to try if he could get the same protagonist treatment as Ichigo.

And if Aizen didn't come, there would be fewer conflicts between him and Madara, and the territory would usher in a period of peace.

Others, such as Yuri, are also conducting experiments. He said that he is using the blood obtained by Muzan from prisoners on Devil's Island to experiment and has achieved outstanding research results.

Lister was very much looking forward to the other party being able to develop a life-extending potion that could restore youth.

Finally, there is no misery.

In the past two months, Muzan can be said to be almost inseparable from him.

Come to Red Maple Territory during the day and return to your own world at night.

Because she tried very hard to think about how to help Liszt from his perspective, the progress bar for obtaining the location information of the blue spider lily increased to 5.8% in just two months.

If she hadn't exchanged some of Lister's blood, her growth would have probably been faster, but her strength also increased greatly.

Thanks to Muzan's activeness, Lister and the people around him have greatly improved their training efficiency.

Not only are each person engraved with blood patterns that can increase their load-bearing capacity, but they can also enjoy Muzan's body conditioning services.

Liszt really thinks that making a deal with Muzan is a wise decision.

The other party took care of him in every way.

He had been enjoying playing erotic role-playing games with his butler, maids, and guards at night lately.

Modern clothing is great!

"Liszt, do you plan to continue training today or fight with me?"

Inside the office, Wuzan sat on the sofa in the corner, with her long legs covered in black stockings lifted up.

She was wearing a beautiful Western-style miniskirt and holding a cup of warm, bright red liquid.

That was artificial blood made by the blood drinking mechanism invented by Epsilon engineers at Lister's request, specially for Wuzan who hated human food to drink.

Although the ghosts in the Demon Slayer world can eat human food and animal meat, in their eyes, those are all rotten meals and are far less delicious than human flesh.

This is a problem at the genetic level and cannot be solved by Muzan.

In order to prevent Muzan from being too bored while he was eating, Lister came up with the idea of ​​artificial blood, which was successfully realized by Epsilon engineers.

It’s true, Muzan thinks the texture and taste are good. Although it is far inferior to Lister’s blood, it is still a good pastime when you are bored, and it can also effectively suppress the demon’s impulse to kill.

Liszt looked at Muzan, who looked like a lady, and shrugged.

It's been two months, and there's still no movement on the favorability reward. He's worthy of being called Muzan.

"Wait a little longer, I still have things to deal with."

"Winter is here. The Jackals often attack the border of the United States at this time. They will gather a thousand-man team and pose a huge threat to the villages on the border of the United States."

"They might come to attack Maple Territory again, so I have sent Pri to investigate. We will decide when to start training today after she comes back."

Wuzan nodded and said nothing more.

She actually hoped that something would happen so that she could help and increase the progress bar.

At this moment, a person suddenly appeared on the circular spell drawn in the center of the office.

It was the cat-eared maid named Puri dressed as a ninja.

She returned via the Flying Thunder God Teleportation of the Lister Research Society.

"Master! We found footprints of unknown creatures deep in the mountains, and also found a large number of gnoll corpses!"

"You'd better come and take a look!"

Chapter 53 Upcoming Changes

Footprints of unknown creatures?

Liszt became interested.

The Red Maple Basin is surrounded by the Winter Mountains. For the safety of the territory, he certainly needs to understand the creatures active in the surrounding area.

It would be better to go and see it in person. Anyway, I can use Flying Thunder God to come back instantly.

Almost at the same time, Lister and Muzan appeared beside Pri and put one hand on her shoulder.

The next second, Puli used Flying Thunder God to bring the two of them to the depths of the Winter Mountains.

Lister began to observe the surroundings. At this time, they were in the middle of the canyon.

Although it is winter, the temperature here is unusually warm and there is not even any snow.

A faint smell of sulfur wafted into his nose, and Liszt instantly guessed that there were natural hot springs nearby.

"Master, the gnolls' residence is a little further inside."

Puri pulled out the Flying Thunder God Kunai from the ground and pointed it at the cave ahead.

The gnolls do not engage in production and only know how to do simple handicrafts. Even their weapons are sticks made from the roughest stones.

However, relying on their strong bodies, thick fur and wild instincts, they live well in this cold mountain range which hides a wealth of resources.

As soon as Liszt and the other two entered the cave, they smelled a strong smell of blood.

The cave is very large, with many large and small holes on the top for sunlight to shine in, so the inside of the cave is bright and you can see very clearly.

There were many corpses of gnolls lying on the ground, with blood spilled everywhere. Most of them died from having their heads smashed by heavy objects.

Liszt opened his magic copying eyes to take in the surrounding environment and observe carefully, while Muzan wiped the blood of the werewolf with his finger and tasted it.

Pooh!

It was not even worthy of her mouth, not even as good as the drink made from the blood drinking machine.

Muzan, who often drinks Lister's blood, has become disdainful of those vulgar things.

"Pulley, did you find anything?"

When Pri saw the smile on Lister's face, she knew that her master was testing her.

She stuck out her tongue, and the cat's tail behind her wagged left and right.

"Master, let's take a look at the footprints here first."

Puli walked to a corpse and saw a clear large footprint in the pool of blood.

"I didn't find any similar footprints on the snowfield. Maybe they deliberately erased them, but there are traces left here."

"Judging from the size of the footprints, they should be the same species as the gnolls, about two and a half to three meters tall. They can easily smash the gnolls' skulls with blunt weapons, which shows that they are incredibly strong."

"And all the ore and metal weapons in the cave are gone."

"This should be their main purpose for killing the jackals."
