“Five kills! Oh, that’s great!”
While playing the game, Joshua’s vision suddenly went dark. When he opened his eyes again, he found himself resting on a woman’s stomach?!
His ‘little brother’ still seemed to be inside this woman’s belly too.
From the physical sensations of his body, he could feel that the ‘battle’ had just ended not long ago.
But at this moment, the sound of the door being pushed open could be heard. A middle-aged man with a crown on his head walked in.
“Ah! You unfilial son, you’re still bedding girls in broad daylight! I’ve already reached the limit of my patience with you. Today, I’ll send you to the border of the Lancelot Empire!”
The old butler Mortimer immediately knelt down toward the king.
“My King! Please show mercy to the prince!”
However, the middle-aged man ignored him and turned around to return to his room.
He instantly wrote an order and sent the First Prince, Joshua, to the undeveloped land in the eastern part of Lancelot.
It took a total of fifteen days to arrive at the eastern border from the imperial capital.
It was not until Joshua arrived at a village near the sea that he clearly understood what had happened to him.
“I actually transmigrated and became the First Prince. I was even sent to the empire’s border to develop wasteland because of my lewd behavior!”
The letter was written in neat penmanship and stated that if his actions did not improve within five years’ time, his right to inherit the throne would be taken over by the second prince instead.
If he could not develop a large-scale town within fifteen years, he would be left in this barren land for the rest of his life.
Joshua was not the only one who was unlucky. There were three others.
The Butler, Mortimer, was sent by his father to plead for him.
The maid, Lena Milena, was arranged to stay by Joshua’s side since she was young. For this particular instance, she took the initiative to follow him.
The first two were fine. They were all people who were directly related to Joshua. It was the last of the bunch that was unlucky!
He was the eldest son of the Marquis of the Fox Geer Empire.
Due to certain reasons, he was framed and expelled from the family. However, he was highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in high-level magic.
The people of the Fox family were afraid that he would make a comeback. Therefore, they took advantage of the opportunity when the First Prince was sent to the border and had him sent away with him as well.
They wanted to make sure that he would never be able to return to the Empire or see their family ever again.
When he first arrived at Puba, he saw nothing but desolation.
“Village? This is not a village at all!”
There was nothing here except for a wooden fence with a few small wooden houses.
Moreover, these small wooden houses were so dilapidated that they could be blown down by the wind at any time.
Looking at everything in front of him, this place couldn’t even be considered an actual village.
Joshua turned his head to the butler beside him and asked, “Is this really Puba? Could it be that we have come to the wrong place?”
“In my memory, Puba is a town. This is not even a village, let alone a town!”
Mortimer immediately took out the map in his arms and compared it with the landmark.
He found three houses marked on the map to confirm that this place was indeed Puba!
“First Prince, this is Puba. There is no deviation from the mark on the map!”
Feeling ridiculed, Joshua only complained. He didn’t expect the old butler to take his remark seriously.
“We’re already here. Let’s go in and see what’s going on!”
Before they managed to cross the wooden fence, someone walked out.
It was a very tall demi-human, and he was from the Great Ghost clan. He saw so many humans standing outside.
He immediately went into the house in the middle of the village and invited the village chief out.
An elderly elf walked out of the wooden house shakily and came to Joshua’s side.
“Hello, I’m the village chief, Carl! May I know who you are? I’m so sorry, it’s been decades since any outsiders came here!”
Carl started coughing violently as soon as he finished speaking
Cough, cough!
“I’m really sorry, I’m almost a thousand years old and almost at the age of death. I’m really sorry for the inconvenience I caused you!”
Looking at this elf who could not be any older, Joshua had already given up all hope!
However, due to his politeness, Joshua said to the old elf, “I’m Joshua Lancelot. The purpose of my visit at this time is to take over this land. I hope that you can accompany me to complete the handover ceremony!”
Hearing this, the old elf village chief on the other side immediately burst into tears. He knelt down while crying and said, “I’ve been waiting for countless years. The Empire has finally come! It’s been a thousand years. I’ve been waiting for a thousand years. You’ve finally come!
“It seems that the Lancelot Empire has not abandoned us! Thank you very much, Emperor Alfa of Lancelot. Thank you for bringing me such an opportunity!”
Hearing this, Lancelot Joshua was speechless.
Although he had just arrived on this continent not long ago, he had heard of the name Alfa. He was the Empire’s first-generation Emperor!
Joshua himself was from the ninth generation. For nearly a thousand years, the Lancelot Empire had never thought of this region…
However, Joshua did not voice out his thoughts. After all, this elven elder in front of him did not have much time left!
In order not to let him suffer too much stimulation on how much time had truly passed, Joshua chose to hide this information.
“Tell me, how many are there left in Puba right now?”
Village Chief Carl immediately called over the Great Ghost clan’s Glenn and instructed, “Call all the people in the village over. I have a big announcement to make. Tell them to stop their work and come here!”
When Glenn heard this, he immediately took action.
During this moment, Joshua asked the old village chief, “Are there no other humans who live here besides the Yans?”
“Of course. The entire eastern region of the Empire is occupied by the Yans. There are tens of millions of Yans living here. There are also tens of thousands of races! But don’t worry. All the races are living very well under my management!”
Soon, it was evening. All the larger tribes in the surrounding area had sent their leaders.
Because this place was extremely barren, everyone was essentially naked. All of them were wearing clothes made from primitive things.
Standing on a big rock that had existed for many years, Village Chief Carl made his position known on it with Glenn’s help.
Then, the village chief announced with a voice that sounded like it could wither away at any moment, “From today onward, I will no longer be the village chief of Puba!”
Once the news was out, the surrounding Yans became noisy.
Because of that, Carl stretched out his hand to command attention and the scene instantly became quiet.
“But you don’t need to worry too much, because the Empire has finally sent someone! This is the First Prince of Lancelot Empire, Joshua. From this moment on, he will lead you to glory!”
After Village Chief Carl said this, all the races and their demi-humans looked at Joshua who was standing at the side.
