Chapter 509: Chapter 229: Bestowing the Name “Ancient Chronicles” (6500 words, asking for monthly pass)_2

‘I, I actually…’

Yellow Spring really wanted to lead troops into battle, but she also wanted to stay by Bailuo’s side to serve him. After all, proximity breeds familiarity.

However, when Bailuo had a need, Yellow Spring naturally couldn’t refuse, ‘A woman will ultimately just be a woman. Even if she serves well, she’s just a plaything. If I become a general and expand the territory for Your Majesty, only then can I showcase my value.’

In an instant, Yellow Spring understood.

‘Yes!’

Yellow Spring knelt on one knee: ‘I will follow your orders diligently and I am thankful for this opportunity.’

‘As for Asura, you…’

Bailuo said, ‘Your temperament is too wild. You can’t sit still, and you’re not fit to be my guard. It would be better for you to serve as a Vanguard Officer along with Nors and Anderson.’

The Vanguard Officer—equivalent to a war general—needs only to focus on enhancing his own strength.

‘That’s good, you can instruct them as well.’

Bailuo wanted Asura to become the Chief Instructor, a role that didn’t require too much intelligence, only strength.

The friendship between men, that was forged through battle. Bailuo thought if he threw a bomb into the military academy, there should be a good effect.

‘At your command!’

In terms of strength amongst the five siblings, Asura was second only to the Ghost Princess. His ability to fight one-on-one was very strong; with people like Nors and the others, he could also protect them.

‘Ghost Princess at your service.’

‘Okay, okay.’

The Ghost Princess didn’t have much ambition, but she was clear-headed.

There were many members in the Lu Wei Family, each taking on their roles, with Yellow Spring as the commander, Asura as the general, with Old Luwei above them. If she could secure the position of Princess Consort, the mission of ‘Ancient Chronicles’ would be complete.

‘Yaksha, I’m afraid I have to trouble you to guard the door for me.’

Yaksha would become the captain of the imperial guards, tasked exclusively with defending Avalon Castle where Bailuo resided.

With such a master present, the castle would be as secure as a fortress.

Furthermore, if Bailuo were to travel, Yaksha would certainly lead the team to provide tight security. Her responsibility was great and she could not afford to be careless.

‘Yes.’

Yaksha: ‘Rest assured, as long as I’m here, I will not allow anyone to touch you.’

Bailuo knew Yaksha’s attributes; she leaned towards the ninja and secret guard type, with especially strong concealment ability. Although with Bailuo’s strength, he didn’t need protection, if the Master of Miracles were to be assassinated, it would be a loss of face.

With the rise of Yatun, it was inevitable that Bailuo would form bonds with other Masters of Miracles.

If during a conversation with someone, they remarked, ‘You’ve been hit by a monkey,’ that would be uncomfortable.

‘Your Majesty, what about me?’

Rakshasa found herself seemingly left out and was a bit worried: ‘Me, what do I do?’

‘To protect me, having Yaksha is enough; furthermore, Ghost Princess is also by my side. With the two of them acting, even the Miracle Entity would have difficulty getting close to me.’

‘As for you, Rakshasa,’ Bailuo said: ‘I need you to help me establish an organization.’

Bailuo hadn’t forgotten Yatun’s primary mission; 80,000 people from the Ancient City were about to arrive, which signified the approach of a new challenge.

The abilities and levels of these people varied; some were good, some bad.

Yatun was striving to build a society based on the rule of law. Even if there were truly people of a bad nature, Bailuo didn’t need to deal with them himself. There would be laws and people to maintain the laws to handle them accordingly.

Fines, imprisonment, capital punishment.

However, the conditions for the death penalty were quite stringent; basically, as long as you don’t betray the country or do anything that betrays Yatun, the last resort wouldn’t be used.

Of course, what was right and wrong, that was a matter for the judiciary. Bailuo, as the king of Yatun, couldn’t possibly intervene in an individual’s merits and demerits.

In this regard, Bailuo trusted the Child of Miracle who were under his command.

However, oversight was indispensable.

No matter how trustworthy, Bailuo couldn’t show favoritism. He couldn’t think everything the Yatun Clan did was correct just because he trusted them; that would be irresponsible towards the new immigrants, the New Yatun People.

Therefore, Bailuo planned to establish another special institution to specifically monitor managers of Yatun, that is, the officials.

‘If they violate the laws of Yatun, I will be responsible.’

Officials manage the civilians, Bailuo manages the officials. Judging the civilians is the job of the officials, but only Bailuo has the right to judge the officials.

‘This organization, under my oversight?’

‘Initially, under your oversight.’

Rakshasa was meticulous and very patient, which was evident from that most troublesome Iaido that he used when sparring with Bailuo.

‘This organization,’ Bailuo said: ‘Let’s call it the Shadow Dance Troupe.’

‘Yiju Vine, Two-piece Fragrance, Tri-leaf Rain, Four-stop Gate, Five Hermitage Path, Roku Bu Town, Seven Deliver Years, Eight Gardenias, Jiugui Township.’

‘Decentralize the powers, have different people in charge of different supervising responsibilities, and then you personally train the Child of Miracle to become the leaders of these nine Shadow Dance groups.’

‘But Rakshasa…’

Bailuo murmured to himself for a moment, then shook his head: ‘This name, as a department leader, seems like something is missing.’

‘Let’s do this; I’ll give you an appellation, a title.’

‘An appellation…’

Rakshasa looked up to Bailuo immensely. Whatever he received from Bailuo would be a delight, and this was a title bestowed by His Majesty—what an honor.

‘Xi, let’s call it Xi.’

‘Rakshasa Xi.’

Bailuo: ‘Calamity Seat of Rakshasa Xi.’

‘…’

‘Ah, this is a little bit of culture,’ Bailuo: ‘Don’t despise it, alright?’

‘No, no, no, I like it very much,’ Rakshasa was simply a little overwhelmed, not because she didn’t like it: ‘Thank you, Your Majesty, for the honorific.’

‘Can I also have a name?!’

Yaksha, the youngest, couldn’t hide her envy and immediately asked: ‘Me, can I have one?’

Looking at the other three, Asura and Yellow Spring were full of expectation, and even Ghost Princess seemed hesitant but eager.

‘Alright then, you’ll each have one.’

Bailuo couldn’t play favorites, so after thinking for a while, he said: ‘Yaksha, let’s call you ‘Banquet’.’

‘Yaksha Banquet,’ Bailuo: ‘Avalon Yaksha Banquet.’
