Chapter 34 XXXIV
A week later
12 PM
By the very edge of his territory, Kingsley had erected a much bigger and stronger wall lined with Sentry towers and guns in them. He didn't need the extra protection, it brought but it was still needed just in case.
On the massive wall, one could easily spot the demon goblins who were standing in between the sentry towers with their bows ready for battle. They were there simply to shoot at any monster that escapes Hestia's massacre
...
Congratulations to all surviving lords. You have a total of 5 minutes to prepare before the start of your first event.
All Lords who survive the event shall be rewarded so please work hard to survive. All those with the extended Grace period shall experience theirs a month later.
...
A system message appeared to warn them about the start of the event but Kingsley ignored it as he was too focused on preparing the necessary defences for his vessals. He was inside a tower some meters behind the wall and beside him where Viktor and Hestia and behind them were multiple clones of him who were busy increasing the defences of his vessals.
As for why he took that responsibility on himself, it was simple. He didn't want his territory to shrunk or his level to go down simply because he didn't protect his vessals well enough. He was now a Level 9 lord and he knew all he had done to get to that point so he didn't want to lose what he had worked for and besides he liked his stats the way they were now.

Health: 900 (+1000)
Physique: 260 (+1000)
Spirit: 287 (+1000)

This was a long way from what he had before. Yes, he still couldn't pull the bows used by the demon goblins but at least the power behind his shots are now much stronger and way beyond anything a normal gun could produce.
"I see everyone is ready" Kingsley said as he surveyed the action ready archers on the wall and the newly created demon goblins who were lined up in pairs ready to rush out into the battle field to gain some experience and level up.
"Yes my Lord, I have seen to it that every one is fully equipped and ready for battle" Viktor replied
"Then we may truly survive this battle" Kingsley said since he had a feeling that the beast tide that will come for him would be more powerful than the one the others will face
With everything ready, Kingsley decided to turn his attention to the [Chat]. He hadn't opened the chat again since he tried to find his family through it.
[Guys, I don't think I can survive this, what should I do]
[Ha…. Dumbass, you had your chance to surrender]
[This event is way scarier than I thought, I can feel the presence of thousands of monsters just waiting in the forest]
[Fear not, all you have to do is surrender to me, My dragons would protect you]
[Liar, you wouldn't be able to send your troops here in time]
[Guys, it's simple, just surrender to Lord [Kingsley] now, you will get some clothes, food and even your weak troops would be upgraded, look at me, I had ordinary goblins, D rank creatures but now they are A rank, Hobgoblins]
[Okay, that's it, I've had enough of you. Who do you think would actually believe that lie, you're just looking for who you will get killed]
[Suit yourselves, I'm in a fully furnished castle eating while you are out in the wilderness, on edge and probably wouldn't survive tonight]
....
Looking at the messages that continued appearing and vanishing nearly at the same time, Kingsley could easily tell that the Lords who were chatting at this time, had levelled up significantly for them to reply quickly and even keep up with the chat. As for whoever it was that was advertising him, Kingsley had absolutely zero idea after all, more than fifty (50) people had surrendered to him in the past five (5) days and he naturally didn't know them all.
"Well at least now we know that anyone who dies, chose pride over life" Kingsley thought as he turned away from the chat. He didn't feel it necessary to pay attention to the Regional chat, if anyone wanted to contact him then they should do so in the private chat.
"Hestia, Viktor, you both know the plan. When it's time meet me in the training grounds" Kingsley said as he teleported away
This was one of the many new things that came about due to practicing in his free time. With five (5) full days to fully figure out his powers, Kingsley tried each and every possible thing he could think of and some that he thought impossible.
He could do as he liked as long as he was in his territory. Be it shape shifting, flying, creating any sort of object etc. He could do it all, he still haven't figured out how to create living things from scratch but he could give life to objects aka statues.
Though despite all this, Kingsley's instinct was still telling him that he should be careful around the system. Anyone who could give you omnipotence was definitely omnipotent too and unlike said being, Kingsley was limited to only his territory.
He didn't only just train his abilities, he also upgraded and improved his territory. Five(5) days ago, his territory was made entirely of trees and just a small clearing that contained his castle but now. The trees were neatly arranged, the grass were cut low, the castle was now much bigger and covered an area of about eight(8) acres of land.
