I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

Chapter 451 [Bonus chapter] Revising Laws

“What do you have in mind?” as I offered my help, cutting on her any path to get away from this responsibility, she asked.

“I already have lots of information about the inner structure of any kingdom,” I didn’t hide this from her, “but what I know can only be applied to the big nations, one that has lots of people.”

“We have land,” she looked around before adding, “and we have a strong army to defend it.”

“But we lack people.”

“We can work and grab any human forces scattered at the areas under our allies control,” she proposed, “also we can try and send rescue teams outside to the surrounding regions. Like this we can keep a steady flow of refugees.”

“That will take time,” I knew such a method might work, but it wasn’t the thing we needed right now.

“Then?” She looked at me as if I already had a plan.

“Do you know about our humans getting captured and being sold off like slaves?” I suddenly asked, and from the calm look on her face I knew she was aware of this.

“You already told me about this before,” she said, “so it’s not a surprise or anything new. After all, you agreed to do a trade with the two friends of yours in exchange for rescuing humans.”

“Yes.”

“So you plan to keep doing this? It’s the same as what I just said.”

“It’s not,” I shook my head, “this time I’m going to buy off any human slave from the wide universe.”

“This… will cost you a fortune!”

“Wealth isn’t a problem,” I knew using my large number of bones was giving me power even in the entire universe, “but you missed something.”

“What?”

“I’m going to get humans, not just humans from Earth.”

“You mean…”

“We will get humans from many other worlds,” I explained fully my entire idea, “I don’t have a way to find out where our humans were sent to. But in exchange for that, I’ll target any human out there.”

I raised a finger towards the sky before adding, “but dealing with those humans will be left over to you.”

“Me? Why me?”

“I’d select that crazy dude, but as you can see… He isn’t in any condition to do such a task for now.”

She seemed to want to comment on my words about the jumper, yet she refrained from doing so. All I got was a long sigh. “So you are giving me the task of handling shattered souls and enraged people like them… What else?”

“We have to write the code of laws before doing all that,” I said in a serious tone, “without the presence of such rules to organise the lives of our people, we will have trouble, lots of trouble.”

“You can bind them using contracts, right?” she said in mockery, and I rolled my eyes in response. “What? You seem to have something with those loyalty binding contracts.”

“They are my way to secure my life and yours,” I gave her a reprimanding look before adding, “but that won’t help. After all these contracts will bind them from defying me, not to organise their relation with each other, with our local humans.”

“I got it,” she said, “so you will tell me all the rules you know about and I’ll write them down?”

“I don’t need a writer,” I hit her on the back of her head, “I need an advisor, not someone to just nod her head to whatever I say.”

“Ouch, that hurt!” she faked it, and I could only inwardly sigh.

“Stop acting lazy,” I rolled my eyes, “we have no time for such tricks.”

“I’m not, you are so mean,” she pursed her lips, making me not know if I should laugh or hit her on the head again.

“Anyway, here are the rules that I know…”

“Damn! Right to the point and straight for business! Can’t you wait until we know what’s going on here first?”

She looked around, but I didn’t follow her trap.

“The first law…” I started narrating what I recalled from the records, and she resigned at last and listened. From time to time, she would interrupt me and say something useful.

Her experience came second to mine in such regard. But she had an advantage. She walked the path before from the start to control the entire world here.

So she had a better overall view over what would suit us better now and what wouldn’t. That was the reason why I selected her for such a task and insisted on her participation in this.

Of course this was just a warming up session. Setting up laws was something important and all, but planning the kingdom’s inner administrative structure was a nightmare.

That would be best left for when we reach the capital later on and stay there for a long time. For now, I had to wait and see what the current situation was.

As I was nagging her with all the laws I memorised, the other team members worked to do their tasks as well.

They had to arrange their forces, select capable personnel and make them leaders. Also they had to ask these to select trusted and capable people from those serving them to work as squad members and such.

In simple words, they were organising up their armies from just a vast collection of human fighters to be a well disciplined army that wouldn’t pale to any regular army of any race here.

Besides they were looking for intel regarding the current overall situation of the entire territory of mine.

Seeing how deeply busy they were, also having a hard time in getting all this done, I knew it was becoming more stressful to establish our private net of communication and spies.

I solved the problem of going to any place by my staff. But we still lack eyes. It was suitable to use the people in our armies before for such a task.

But now this has become unlikely. Wars were getting fiercer and longer, and many occurred far away from our territories. So we had to find another way to deal with this.
