Ingrid came to the Deman Hotel because Mu Hua moved all the surviving students in the academy to the hotel. The huge hotel lobby couldn't be said to be like a morgue, but it looked very much like a large bunk bed.

It was a bit disturbing to see so many people lying on the ground in a disorderly manner. They were just sleeping and had no injuries or illnesses. Mu Hua simply asked Wednesday to decorate the lobby on the first floor into an illusion.

When Ingrid saw Mu Hua, he seemed to be telling Helen something. It was not until Deman reminded him that Mu Hua looked at Ingrid and her group who broke into the hotel.

"Your Majesty, Ingrid brings greetings from the imperial royal family. You can call me Ingrid. It's an honor to meet you." Coming close to Mu Hua, Ingrid lowered her posture very low, so low that Mu Hua felt a little uncomfortable.

This is a tall woman who is over 1.8 meters tall. She is fair, beautiful, and fit. Her gentle and sexy hairstyle can hardly hide the wildness revealed in her eyes and eyebrows.

"You should be the princess, right? The title of Your Majesty is a bit too much. Mu Hua, you can call me Mu." When Mu Hua said this, because Ingrid was kneeling and lifting her skirt to salute him, Mu Hua restrained the subconscious action of extending his hand to shake hands.

"Your Majesty is too modest. The royal family does not need to wield swords, so princes practice politics. But princesses are different. We have been practicing since childhood. In essence, we are not nobles. Only princesses who introduce excellent genes to the royal family can become princesses."

"The Empire was greatly negligent in the Penelope incident. Your Majesty, please do not be polite. I bring the Empire's apologies and hope to discuss with you in detail about the situation in the city of Cairns." Ingrid said calmly with a hint of guilt on her face.

There was a certain mismatch between the first and second half of Ingrid's speech. She said too much about the princess and the royal family, but too little about Penelope.

The statement about introducing excellent genes into the royal family was somewhat meaningful, but her expression was very natural, as if it was a simple explanation. Helen beside Mu Hua looked her up and down, but could not tell the reason from her impeccable smile.

At the round table in the garden in the illusion, Mu Hua had someone bring tea to Ingrid, and they sat opposite each other. Behind Ingrid stood a waiter with a long sword on his waist. On the left and right of Mu Hua stood a demon, who were Tina and Helen.

After a brief greeting, Mu Hua learned that Ingrid was the plenipotentiary representative sent by the Empire to the city of Cairns. Mu Hua and Ingrid reached a consensus on the Empire's "modification" of the Penelope incident.

Mu Hua said that he would no longer interfere in the affairs of Cairns City, but Ingrid did not comment.

"Your Majesty, you know the situation in the city of Cairns best." Mu Hua interrupted Ingrid.

"No, Your Highness, I am only familiar with the situation in the small town. I have hardly even been to the new city area."

"Okay, okay, at least for now, no one knows the current situation in Keynes City better than you." Ingrid spread her hands, acting as if she didn't want to argue with Mu Hua.

Mu Hua was easier to communicate with than Ingrid had imagined. Unlike those politicians she had met, Mu Hua was confident, casual, and arrogant, with a very typical adventurer's mindset, which made Ingrid feel more relaxed.

"Your Majesty, you have touched jealousy, and now you need a place to stay. The Empire intends to assign the Caines region to your territory."

"The empire will not take the initiative to interfere in the governance of the territory, but you must ensure that this area has an environment suitable for ordinary people to survive." Ingrid looked into Mu Hua's eyes, trying to guess Mu Hua's mentality from his expression.

"Hehe, after eating the empire's food, you won't be able to escape unscathed, right?" Mu Hua said jokingly. Ingrid chuckled and shook her head, but simply ignored Mu Hua's "joke".

"I need you to explain the concept of territory. You must know that many people in this town have turned into ghosts. I am their friend and I don't want to hurt them. I will even provide them with necessary protection. Most of the industries in this town belong to them." Mu Hua said to Ingrid.

"Hehe, I'm very glad that you are a benevolent ghost." Ingrid's face flashed with relief and her eyes showed just the right amount of respect.

"It's best if you can think this way. The ghosts here are very special. The Empire will not cancel their citizenship. Personal property is sacred and inviolable, so the Empire will not allow anyone to plunder the private property of these ghosts during their lifetime."

"I may stay here permanently. This represents the attitude of the empire. The empire needs a member of the royal family to prove that the empire will not abandon them." "Of course, we can discuss the placement of the ghosts slowly later, but for safety reasons, if uncontrollable existence appears among these ghosts, it is also necessary to clean them up." Ingrid answered the question irrelevantly. Mu Hua was silent, waiting for her to continue.

"Regarding the lord's rights and obligations..." Ingrid pretended to think.

"As an Imperial Lord, you enjoy the same rights as other nobles. On the premise of abiding by the laws of the Empire, 50% of the taxes in the territory will be at your disposal."

"Unlike most nobles, due to your uniqueness, you have the power to lead the appointment and dismissal of personnel in the territory, but the laws and regulations in the territory must be synchronized with the empire. I hope you can understand."

"At the same time, any future household registration transfer to Cairns City must be reviewed by me." Staring into Mu Hua's eyes, Ingrid sighed slightly when she saw that he showed no disgust.

"Alas, you are special. I have to say that you are the source of jealousy."

"Just like the undead, the reason they are judged as apostles of jealousy is not because they are the embodiment of jealousy. In my opinion, it is more because they will inevitably arouse the jealousy of other creatures."

"Even though most people hold undead creatures in contempt, as immortals, their lifespans still make countless creatures subconsciously jealous and envious." Ingrid sighed.

"And the ghost that was born from you can even be understood as the continuation of life to a large extent."

"Even if ghosts have fatal flaws and may face dementia and madness, generally speaking, there will be countless dying people who want to come to your side, not to mention that there is a cursed spirit by your side." Ingrid's eyes flashed with taboo.

"So, from now on, it will be impossible for people to enter and leave this area without restraint. I will supervise the immigration and household registration affairs of Caines City in the future."

"Of course, I will respect your opinion to a certain extent. I think this will solve a lot of trouble for you, right?" Ingrid confirmed Mu Hua's attitude.

"Yeah." Mu Hua nodded. He did not object to Ingrid's statement, nor did he want a large number of irrelevant people to gather around him and wait to die.

They came with a clear purpose, and humans are very good at playing moral blackmail. There are too many such people, and if many things are not handled properly, they may lead to condemnation from the outside world.

It is better to establish some rules early. With Ingrid helping him guard the "gate", the so-called immigration and naturalization matters are also in compliance with the imperial policy.

For Mu Hua today, ghosts can be found all over the world, so there is no need to let a group of living people who are not yet dead come to his place and cause trouble for him.

"I have no objection to your supervision, but right now, in the new city area, including the students in the academy, there are many ghosts who have families from the outside world, and you need to deal with those people as well." Mu Hua said to Ingrid.

Ghosts are not a problem. By blocking the Caines area, Mu Hua can make them disappear from the world in a short time. The real problem is the ghosts' families, especially those who are not in Caines City.

Your own relatives and children are alive and well, but suddenly they are attacked by demons. If they are really dead, it would be fine. You can come forward to provide compensation and put all the blame on the demon. After ten days or half a month, the matter will be over.

As a result, they didn't die completely, but turned into ghosts one by one. In this case, it would be strange if their families didn't make trouble.

Mu Hua didn't even want to get involved in this kind of thing, and he had no ability to deal with it. Thinking of all the chaos in his mind, Mu Hua had no other thoughts except killing the big man. (End of this chapter)
