A few minutes after Ina left; I walked her out of her office.

I could have eased her up and helped her a little, but it's better, that faces these things head-on.

I will be leaving in a few hours, and after that, she will have to deal with these things herself. So, she should start facing them directly while I am here.

Whether I am in the city or out, no one will impede her work. They understand it's a bad idea.

If they went against her, then they will be going against me, but that doesn't mean, they won't create the roadblocks in front of her.

There will be a small one, like not following orders as they should or doing it late. Such problems are more difficult to deal with than the bigger ones, but she can deal with them.

I have a confidence in her.

Soon, I got out of the city hall and stepped into the carriage.

As the carriage got out of the gates. I saw people working; there were some constructions happening around the city hall.

It's the most important part of the city and needs to be repaired first.

They are Amellus's people, but soon, in a few days, we will issue the tender for the other works.

There is a lot of work needed to be done, and giving it all to one company isn't wise. They will still do the emergency work, but the general work will be handled through the tender.

I wonder how many companies will apply for it.

Soon, the carriage reached the wall, and I saw the train of carriages moving out of the city after a careful inspection of each one.

We are sending the first badge of children to the Greltheaven.

Most of them are small children of ages one to five. They need immediate care and we have made preparations for that in the city.

It's going to cost me a lot, but I can't leave those children here. Currently, this city isn't a place for them to live.

I looked at them before turning to the wall.

They have already started working on it. The first thing, they did was remove the temporary fix we did.

It was an expensive fix, but I didn't regret using it. If the undead had attacked, it would have helped us tremendously against them.

The damage to the wall isn't small. It takes time to fix the wall and lay out the enchantments. Which is going to be really costly and something which I cannot skim.

"Lord Silver," greeted Davidson, as he stopped beside me.

"How are the things?" I asked. "Good, my lord. Our people have started working. We have even called more enchanters today, to fix and embed the new ones on the wall," he replied.

"We need the wall fixed as soon as possible. Use, your best people on it," I said, looking at the wall.

"We are doing that, my lord," he replied.

I talked to him for a few minutes before walking to the wall.

A few hours passed, and I checked everything in the city, before going back to the city hall.

"I wish you had stayed a few more days, Master Silver," said Ina as she had come to drop me off.

"With you here, there is no need for me to stay here anymore. I trust you completely to do the job well," I replied a little loudly, so everyone could hear.

The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.

She smiled and looked at me gratefully.

"Have a safe journey, Lord Silver," she wished. "Thank you, Governor," I thanked and mounted on the horse.

A few seconds later, a group of horses moved out of the city gates.

I will be traveling by horse. I could take the carriage, but it will take time; the beasts are much faster.

Stone is leading. He is coming with me, but he won't be staying in the Greltheaven.

He will return to Panar after dropping me off safely in the city.

Soon, we reached the gates and passed through it.

As I turned back to the city, I found it was different from what I had seen a few days ago.

The wall is about the same, but the overgrowth of the plants in front of it has disappeared. We have removed all of them.

We will restart the farms, but that will take time.

We have to make sure that we could deal with the undead, before they even reach the city, or we will be just growing them to get destroyed by the undead.

A few minutes passed, the city got further and further, till it was nothing but the dot.

Even that had disappeared after a few minutes.

The beasts are moving fast; I will be able to reach the city on time. If we kept moving at such speed.

As we moved. I thought about the things that I need to deal with quickly and will need to be quiet creative about it.

This decision of mine put me under a lot of pressure and some people might try to take advantage of it. I need to be in the city to handle it.

The pressure is greater than I had thought.

I have been contacted by the ministers of both princes, and they told me, in straight terms, that their masters are displeased with my decision.

They ordered me to change the governor.

The same diktats were given other princes, Namdar, Inam, and other cities and even merchant states. There were even some threats mixed in it.

I am not going to change my decision despite the pressure and bear it with the greatest shield, I have.

My legacy.

If it had anyone else, there would have been more than just a warning. Still, I would need to tread very carefully from now on.

There are enemies everywhere and now with cracks emerging. Others might try to take advantage of it.

Hun!

Hours passed, and soon, I saw a group of carriages and the beasts with the familiar flag.

"They are not wasting any time," said Lola, riding beside me, looking at people from the church of dusk moving toward Panar.

"They are not," I replied.

Bishop Alanis arrived yesterday in Panar and today more of her people are going there.

It is a great opportunity to convert the people, and they are squeezing it with everything they have.

I didn't do anything. It was the deal they had made with me in exchange for helping me and they have kept the end of their deal.

They are going to build the church there, and it is good for me and the city.

The city is in dire need of priests. Not only to deal with physical well-being, but also mental and spiritual. There are many people, that are broken mentally and near breaking limit.

The church will be helpful in dealing with that.

Though, I had asked Lola and Azalea to keep a tight eye on them. A church without restriction is not a good thing, despite how good the church is.

The sun was beginning to get down when the city came into view.

Seeing it, a smile couldn't help, but appear on my face.

Every second we got closer and closer, till we reached right in front of the gate, before entering it.

"Hail, Lord Silver. The Lord of Greltheaven and Panar!"

A loud shout rang out, announcing my entry as I entered the city, and flowers began to shower on me and party.

There are people everywhere, held back by lines of police. They are cheering, throwing flowers, petals and even coins.

"They said it was going to be a small parade," said Lola as she took her horse back.

I led in the front, while others followed behind as people cheered. There are thousands and thousands of them on both sides of roads, on roofs of houses and stores, and they are cheering loudly.

Robin said some preparations were made, and I had expected some, but not at such a grand scale.

'I hope they didn't spend too much on it.' I thought while waving and releasing my aura with Trustful Presence, with a small hint of Lord's Presence.

It awed them.

I saw many familiar faces, especially the girls. They are quite easy to notice with my class.

The horse moved slowly, I moved street after street, waving at people non-stop, smiling at them.

It took me over an hour to reach the city hall and by that time, my body was smelling like flowers.

"Welcome back, my lord," said Robin as I dismounted off the horse and bowed.

The people behind him bowed as well. Including my siblings, Valentina and Zela.

"It's good to be back," I said and walked with them toward the city hall. There are a lot of things waiting for me, including a meeting at night.

Before that, I have to make a short trip to the legacy. Carla had asked me to come.

Even if she hadn't asked, I would have gone there. I miss her and miss my legacy.

"Congratulation, on your victory brother," said Heron. "Thank you, Heron," I replied.

It had been only a few days since I had seen him, but the changes seemed to have occurred to him. He seemed to have matured.

"I missed you, brother," said the small voice. "I miss you too, Josie," I said, petting her head gently.

I had missed them a lot and had been really worried when the Deepond attacked.

"You two go home. I will meet you tomorrow, at breakfast," I said to them, and I could see the disappointment appearing in their eyes.

I felt bad, but I had a lot of things to do. I won't be able to give them the time.

Their nanny came and took them with guards following behind, while I walked into the city hall with others.
