Chapter 732: Chapter 311: You Think You’re Worthy of Comparing to Lord Lear? (Part 2)

"Niece Firina, I have something to say to you..."

Firina turned her head to look at the Duke of the Stag, who had a large belly.

"Speak."

The calm tone made the other’s brow slightly furrow, but he still endured his impatience and said.

"As the Duke of the Stag, with the blood of the Imperial Royal Family flowing through me, I am obligated to rebuild the Empire."

"I hope niece Firina, you can support me..."

Jasmine heard this and slightly frowned. This guy was truly clueless.

"Where do you get the courage to speak to Her Highness in this way?"

The Duke of the Stag was stunned, then became somewhat angry.

"A maid, is this a place where you have the right to speak?"

With that, he fixed his gaze on Firina.

"Niece, I have fought with your father several times, we are close friends... just give me your words, are you willing to support us in rebuilding the Griffin Empire!"

Firina glanced at him.

"Are you done talking?"

The other was taken aback, somewhat secretly angry.

"I’m done!"

Firina slowly stood up, and after sweeping her gaze around, she spoke softly.

"Since you’re done, let me announce something."

"From today onwards, all noble titles of the Griffin Empire are revoked."

"In the future, noble titles can only be conferred by Lorand City, and there will be no land grants, only honorary titles."

Wow~ A single stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Those present were all top-tier nobles holding power, revoking their titles was like stepping on them!

The old duke roared in anger.

"What right do you have to do this?!"

"My army is still stationed in the city!"

"Who allowed you to do this? Hrm?! Where is Duke Lorand? Why doesn’t he come out?!"

Others also rose up angrily to denounce her.

This concerned their wealth and lives, it couldn’t just vanish like that!

But in the next second, they all abruptly shut their mouths.

A terrifying chain slowly appeared beside Firina, it seemed to split the heavens and the earth, exuding an infinite battle intent.

At this time, the chain was stained with spots of blood.

With a slight sense, one could hear the wailing of dying beastmen... that was blood left by the gods!

Godslayer... it was true.

The inner terror skyrocketed frantically.

Firina calmly watched these last great nobles of the Griffin Empire.

"I am notifying you, it’s an order, not a discussion."

"Moreover, I have already sent people to take over your armies stationed in Lorand City, you no longer have command authority."

"Additionally, I’ve left a part of the wealth you brought, the rest has been used as military funds."

"Now, there is one more choice... I am exploring a mysterious area called the Original Plane."

"Inside, powers above Level 15 are not allowed to enter."

"You can enter to continue leading your armies and fight for me."

"As long as you achieve a satisfying performance... you may still be allowed to continue existing in the army, but these armies will no longer be your private troops, they will be part of Lorand City’s forces."

Everyone was stunned by Firina’s words.

She dared to directly integrate their armies?!

Without an army, they were no more than toothless and clawless tigers, incapable of doing anything besides intimidating others.

At this moment, they realized her seriousness.

Looking at that flawless, captivating face, they only felt an overwhelming authority.

A strong fear rose in their hearts, the Duke of the Stag shakily pointed at Firina.

"You, you..."

The tone carried an indescribable fear.

If their greatest reliance was gone, they would truly just be like meat on a chopping board.

Firina didn’t waste more words with them.

"This is your only choice, if not... I will issue a notice tomorrow."

"If you go, you’re fighting for a future."

"No more talking to me about past achievements, the era has changed... everyone."

Her words leaving no room for negotiation, she strode out of the reception room.

By the time Firina’s figure disappeared, the people inside hadn’t yet reacted, each one trembling and at a loss.

After a long while, the youngest one, only in his forties, slowly stood up and resolutely walked out of the hall.

He was the one who suggested establishing Lorand City.

The Duke of the Stag instinctively shouted.

"Sirael, where are you going?"

"I’m going to command the troops!"

The person disappeared from sight without looking back.

Then two more people successively stood up and followed, the remaining nobles stared blankly at this scene, unable to regain their composure for a long time.

After Firina left, she didn’t bother with the affairs behind, since she came to Lorand City, everything must follow her rules.

Only one voice is allowed here.

Taking Jasmine to the office at the Duke’s Mansion, she began handling state affairs.

Not long after, someone came to report information, Jasmine went outside to listen and quickly returned to report.

"Your Highness, three nobles are willing to enter the Original Plane to command the army and fight!"

"Good, arrange the army for them."

"Furthermore, any news on the location of our army?"

"There’s news. It’s located in the central part of the Original Plane, 100 kilometers south a rather majestic great city where trade can occur, 200 kilometers north there is a mountain range called the Long Thorn Mountain Range."

"Hmm, expand our occupied territory quickly, gather followers, the Original Plane is extremely important to us..."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

As Firina spoke, she suddenly seemed to remember something, hesitantly put down the document in her hand, and looked up at Jasmine.

"Has Lady Kalanis not returned yet?"

Jasmine shook her head.

"Both the White Crow Commerce Association and the Faceless Hermitage have inquired, Lady Kalanis has not returned."

Seeing Firina somewhat disappointed, Jasmine softly said.
