From Baron's Second Son to Dragon Rider

Since Alvis took the initiative to come to him, and his attitude was extremely sincere, Krober naturally knew that he must not let him go back disappointed.

So, he said without hesitation:

"Brother-in-law, since you came to me in person, I will definitely not treat you unfairly!"

"Don't worry, after we return to the court, all the territories that originally belonged to the Emerald Kingdom will remain the same, and there will be no changes."

"Those lands will still belong to you completely, and the nobles who originally belonged to the Emerald Kingdom will continue to be under your rule."

Speaking of this, Krober paused for a moment, as if thinking about something, and then continued:

"As for your title, we will follow the previous title, still use Emerald as the title, and respect you as the Emerald King."

"In this way, it can not only show your glory and status, but also let everyone know that your noble identity has never changed."

It must be said that facing this brother-in-law, Krober was quite generous and kind.

Therefore, it is not just the territory originally owned by the Emerald Kingdom.

Even those areas that were previously occupied and annexed by the Mountain Copper Kingdom, Krober had already planned in his mind to return them to Alvis intact when the time was right.

You know, there is a significant difference between the world of knights and the world that Krober lived in in the past.

Although ordinary people, civilians and nobles always have deep and sincere feelings for the land they depend on for survival.

But when it comes to high-level figures such as dukes and even princes, their attachment to the land will be greatly reduced.

Alvis, after experiencing that tragic defeat, did not even think of trying to regain the lost land.

After the war, he simply deployed his soldiers to firmly hold the defense line to prevent another round of fierce attacks that the enemy might launch.

From this detail alone, we can clearly see that Alvis' attitude towards the lost land is by no means proactive and enterprising.

In contrast, he is more inclined to adopt a relatively conservative and stable strategy to deal with the situation.

Of course, there are many reasons for this situation.

One of the most important factors is the huge gap between his own strength and Harold's, as well as the overall military strength comparison between the Emerald Kingdom and the Mountain Copper Kingdom.

It is precisely because of these objective conditions that Alvis seems to be somewhat powerless when facing the problem of losing land, and can only choose a more stable defensive posture to protect the existing territory.

Although from an objective perspective, various conditions have framed the direction and mode of Alvis's thinking, no matter what, it is impossible to eliminate the sharp thorn buried deep in his heart.

Once, the vast and resource-rich territory in the northwest was lost to the enemy in an unexpected incident.

For Alvis, who has always been ambitious and wants to make the Emerald Kingdom increasingly powerful and prosperous, this is a heavy blow that is almost suffocating.

Fortunately, Krober is willing to take the initiative and return this land to Alvis.

In this way, Krober and Alvis reached a cooperation.

First of all, Alvis, the king of the Emerald Kingdom, must make a statement.

From today on, the entire Emerald Kingdom will be completely incorporated into the powerful and prosperous Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom!

This vast land, many hardworking and kind people, and rich and diverse resources will all be marked with the mark of the Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom.

For Krober, this not only means that he will receive all the wealth accumulated by the Emerald Kingdom, but also shoulder a heavy responsibility.

First of all, Krober must ensure that the people of the original Emerald Kingdom who have newly integrated into the Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom can be treated fairly and justly.

The "equal treatment" mentioned here does not mean the pursuit of so-called equality for all, but emphasizes that people should not be treated unfairly because of the differences in their original countries.

The nobles are still the rulers, and the common people and slaves are still the exploited.

But there are also gaps between nobles.

Alvis is mainly worried that the nobles under his command will be excluded by the noble circle of the Amethyst Ocean Current Kingdom because they originally came from the Emerald Kingdom.

That's why he made this request.

Those nobles who originally came from the Emerald Kingdom should enjoy the same preferential treatment as the nobles of the Amethyst Ocean Kingdom in legal terms.

Since the noble class was mentioned, Alvis could not forget others.

So his request became:

Whether it is the noble class, the ordinary civilians, or even the humble slaves, they should be treated equally.

This treatment covers many aspects such as political rights, social status, and economic interests. Only in this way can the harmonious coexistence and common development of the two kingdoms after the fusion be truly achieved.

Regarding this point, Krober agreed with both hands.

After all, the Amethyst Ocean Kingdom is now in its infancy, just like the rising sun, full of infinite possibilities and vitality.

Moreover, this emerging country has shown a high degree of tolerance for outsiders, as if it opened its arms to welcome everyone who came to seek refuge.

In particular, Krober has always had a great dream in his heart - to build the Amethyst Ocean Kingdom into a country where multiple ethnic groups live in harmony and prosper together.

Therefore, in terms of the social atmosphere of the entire kingdom, it is absolutely impossible to tolerate discrimination or exclusion of outsiders.

When seeing Krober agree without hesitation, Alvis finally breathed a sigh of relief.

As a king, Alvis has always been known for his kindness. His greatest wish is to allow the nobles and the people who follow him to live a happy and stable life.

He never wants them to suffer any grievances or unfair treatment because of a decision he made.

Since the most critical point has been answered affirmatively by Krober, Alvis no longer has too many thoughts about the other conditions that follow.

It is nothing more than granting a title of king and giving him the territory that originally belonged to the Emerald Kingdom as his fiefdom.

In this way, for Alvis, except for the change of the name on his head, he actually did not lose too much substantial things.

Oh, wait!

It seems that there is one more thing that cannot be ignored!

Through this agreement, Alvis not only successfully preserved all existing rights and interests, but more importantly, he was able to regain the crucial lost land that was once violently taken away by Harold!

Thinking of this, Alvis' mood became more and more cheerful.
