I gathered the refugees in the New Union Building. This building is created to solely focus on everything related to the Mudland Union. It is located in the Inner Walls of the Crimson Town. Anyways since over 1000 citizens won't fit inside, I only allowed 69 refugees in. This 69 will was chosen by the refugees to act as their representatives. Also if you divide 1035 by 15 you will get 69 so this 69 refugees will be representing every 15 refugees.

"Nice to meet you, everyone. I am Wreck, the Chairman of the Mudland Union and the Leader of the Crimson Town."

Everyone that was seated on the chairs quickly went on their knees.

"Thank you so much, sir!!"

"You are our savior!"

"Thank you for accepting us in your country!"

"We will try our best to pay you back!"

I was incredibly overwhelmed. Now I knew that I made the right decision. All of those frustrations about accepting these refugees are all gone. I just realized how much lives I saved. I was just thinking only about myself when I thought about rejecting them. I am glad that I made the right choice.

"Oh, you don't need to kneel everyone."

"We have to sir!"

"You saved our lives from destruction!"

"You and your country have been treating us, refugees, well."

"We can't thank you enough sir."

Some of them are crying. I understand them. They must have gone through a lot in their life. I should be careful with the use of my words.

"Alright. I need all of you to be seated. I am going to be asking you questions. After that, I am going to personally grant every one of your refugees' citizenship. There will be no slavery, forced jobs, or any violations of your lives I promise. I am going to make your lives better so I need every one of you to cooperate."

"Of course sir!"

"Good. Now let me ask you, are you mad at the City of Sandon?"

Everyone is silent. Looks like no one is willing to answer. Was it to sensitive? I was about to ask a new one when someone raises a hand.

"Um Sir, I would like to speak." A beastman in his twenties said.

"Sure."

"My name is Thed and I am from a small village called Enda. Before I and my co-villagers came to your town, we are living peacefully until our village was destroyed by the Army from Sandon. Even though our home was destroyed, I have always believed that our lives matter first. We may hold a small grudge against those humans but now that I am in a better position, I am happy. As long as they don't do that evil thing again, I am fine."

Wow. This man is amazing. He has a great mental toughness and is incredibly mature. To be able to have the ability to forgive after that event is amazing. The others also seem to agree with his philosophy. Most of them are pacifists. Just then a human lady raised her hand. I nodded at her.

"I am Rolya and I am from Sandon City. I escaped from that city because I and my family had a very hard time there. It is not because of the people in theirs. It is because of poverty. We are starving in that city and after the war with Thrile and in Norman, we have decided to risk our lives going somewhere. I am very glad that we have found this country. I personally do not harbor any hate towards the people of Sandon. All we poor people want is food to eat and a place we can sleep. I am not mad at any place. I just want to live."

Again, what an amazing person. Most of these people are all mature and really peace-loving. I am very shocked that they really do not hate the Sandon after all that happened to them.

"Everyone here is amazing. I really am amazed by your mentality and your way of life. I will make sure that your lives will finally be better."

"Thank you again, sir!!"

"No problem. Now that we are talking about your lives, I am now going to ask everyone what your capabilities are so that I can give you the proper jobs. I am of course going to pay your salaries."

"Of course sir!"

"Thank you for this opportunity, sir!"

Everyone seems excited about getting jobs. Maybe it is because they want to be productive.

"I will also be providing every one of your refugee homes to live."

Everyone was shocked.

"Really Sir!"

"That is way too much sir!"

"We cannot accept any of these things anymore sir!"

"But not for free. Each of your houses will have a price."

Everyone then became gloomy.

"No need to be sad. The payment won't be that much. Each house will have a price of 1 silver coin every month. You will be paying that in 40 months. You can also fully pay it if you can. It is affordable right?"

"That is cheap!"

"You are so nice, sir!"

"Now we can have our homes!"

Everyone is very happy. All of them are all glad that they won't suffer anymore. The hardships of the slaves, the war victims, the poor people, and everyone that had a hard time.

After all of that, I asked every head of jobs to present to them the potential jobs they can take. Grano for Crafting and Building, Wright for the blacksmith, Listh for farming, Lisha for cooking, Keyo(Exel's Wife) for clothes making, Jebin(Dwarf) for winemaking, Jins(Wright's wife) for arts/drawing, Berd(Elf) for Mining, Rael for Logistics and Civil Services, Caire for medicine and of course Kirth for Military. I also introduced the Crimson Academy to them so that every child must enroll. I gave everyone about a week to decide their jobs.

While everyone was busy, Kirth approached me.

"Wreck, why did you ask the refugees about the Sandon City?'

"I have a plan Kirth."

"What is it?"

"I want to establish a diplomatic relationship with the City of Sandon."
