The night's festivities were long and exciting. The sound of music and the smell of food was in the air and all the people looked happy.
People drank, danced, sang, and told stories.
Kane was watching it all while having a drink with the mayor. He enjoyed the atmosphere and was happy to relax at last.
All his hard work had paid off and he and the mayor were just finalizing things. Kane explained several things to him and the mayor told him more about the town.
Kane was worried about the Kokar kingdom coming here to attack so he decided to leave 100 crusaders and 50 orcs. The mayor and Kane knew it would take some time getting used to the troops especially the orcs but it would be great to have the protection.
Kane told to story of how the orcs had joined him and about his empire and the many different people who live in it.
The mayor was surprised but was also intrigued to learn about this king who would take anyone as his subordinates. The man was full of mysteries but Luth trusted him all the same.
Lo would also be heading to the city to train the people Kane spoke about. Kane would summon some people with magical affinity later.
Kane was also preparing for war with the Kokar kingdom so he sent a messenger to gather scouts from the kobolds, goblins, and orcs. He would send them to the area where the kingdom resided to watch over and let Kane know if anything was happening with it.
Kanes forces had been growing at a fast rate recently and he had a good amount of points. He was confident that he would be ready for war.
The Kokar kingdom would defiantly be harder than the Iron Rose Kingdom and the orcs as would every kingdom be the more he explores.
He was lucky that the Kokar kingdom was not part of a bigger empire as that would make it much more difficult to defeat them.
Kane was tempted to improve Vern and Lo with the system but he was unsure whether to do so just yet. He kept the secret of his powers to most and only the people close to him and fully loyal or his long-time citizens would learn. Even then all they knew was that he was some kind of godly summoner and mage.
The people of the Iron Rose also knew as they would have to when he summons Romans and dinos to help with the kingdom. In fact, they became even more loyal after seeing that. The goblins and kobolds fear him while the orcs think he is some kind of demon.
Kane would finish his work with the mayor and then head home with Lo, Jag and his men, and his honor guards. The other 100 crusaders would stay to help build improvements to the town like better defenses and more housing.
"Well we have a lot to do Mayor but I am sure that it will all be worth it."
"Yes, your highness I agree."
