"I'll leave the ghost issues to you, and I'll handle the human issues. But in the near future... well, within two or three months. It would be best if there isn't a large-scale elimination of ghosts within two or three months." Ingrid said hesitantly in response to Mu Hua's request.

Human ghosts can indeed evolve into faceless men, but that requires training and a very long growth process.

For necromancers and witches, it's no problem to raise a ghost occasionally, but if you have such a large number of ghosts, it will be an eyesore and a nuisance. Most people will either kill them for peace and quiet, or use them as spell materials.

In Ingrid's opinion, Mu Hua was just pretending at best, and would inevitably have to attack the ghosts in the city in the end.

"The Empire will send someone special to contact the relatives of those ghosts. As for the ghosts in the academy, you don't have to worry. Even if Sprinkle can't handle it, the Maleficent Academy will probably come forward to deal with it." Seeing Mu Hua frowning, Ingrid continued.

Black Witch Academy? A term that Mu Hua had no idea about. If Sprinkle was a magic school that recruited students from the Anju world, then Black Witch Academy was probably a higher education institution in the adventurer world.

Although they both bear the name of an academy, there is a huge difference between the two. Mu Hua didn't know that Sprinkle was related to the Maleficent Academy, but he didn't say anything at this time.

"I will try my best to settle the ghosts, but they will definitely be mainly the residents of the small town. Also, I need to go to some mazes to collect joy. You can talk to the Adventurer's Guild about this." Mu Hua said to Ingrid.

In order to keep the ghosts sane, they must have positive feelings. Although they were born because of Mu Hua, they died because of Penelope.

As the saying goes, a frank person doesn't speak in secret. The trouble that these ghosts who were killed by Kanes will bring to the Magic Empire will definitely be greater than the trouble they bring to Mu Hua.

Before meeting Mu Hua, Ingrid also learned some information about Mu Hua, to which she did not raise any objection.

The small town, or rather the city of Cairns, may no longer be suitable for normal people to live in the future.

Even though ghosts don't spread the breath of death everywhere like skeletons, normal people wouldn't like the feeling of being passed through their bodies by these invisible ghosts.

When ghosts evolve to the level of dead souls, they can physically interfere with the outside world and allow ordinary people to see them. Therefore, people's understanding of dead souls is higher than that of ghosts, and they are more easily accepted.

Mu Hua can help ghosts evolve quickly into dead souls, but he definitely can't take care of so many ghosts in the entire city of Caines.

He considered focusing on the town for the time being, evolving Old Morey and the others into dead souls so that they could come into contact with real objects, and rebuilding taverns, supermarkets, farms, lumberyards and other places and shops. Not to mention the ghost city for now, he would try to build a ghost town first.

Well, the courtyard has just been stabilized, and the prospects for this area are promising. Production and operations must be restored. Not only the small town must be restored, but the new urban area must also be properly rectified.

After all, if he accepted the title granted by the empire, 50% of the taxes would belong to him.

There is a subtle trend of rising aristocrats in the northern part of the empire. As an imperial lord, even without considering his status as a god, I think no powerful people in the surrounding cities would come to rob him. They are all in the same boat.

The authority over security and administrative personnel appointments and dismissals lies in Mu Hua's hands. This territory is well-deserved for Mu Hua. He will first build a distinctive ghost town. He does not want his territory to be a ghost town where no one is allowed to approach.

"Now that we've talked about power, let's talk about obligations." Mu Hua asked Ingrid, leaning back in his chair and relaxing.

The future seems to have some prospects, but he still has to obey his obligations. If it is troublesome, he doesn't want this territory. Anyway, he is used to being a troublemaker.

"Hehe, apart from these ghosts, there is actually no obligation for you to fulfill." Ingrid chuckled, stroking the edge of the teacup with her slender fingers, and seemed to relax a little.

"Haha, although the empire is powerful, when it comes to politics, you should never underestimate the ambitions of politicians from the kingdoms and duchies."

"Your existence is like an alternative biological weapon. As long as you stand on the side of the empire, ghosts and gods will also be a deterrent to other countries." Ingrid said with a smile.

"Do I need to fight for you?" Mu Hua asked.

"No, generally not. Even if it is necessary, you can refuse. The Empire has a complete military system, and someone like you is not suitable to appear on the battlefield of the human world."

"In fact, the most we can do is arrange for you to participate in some diplomatic activities or overseas travel, which will be reimbursed by public funds." Ingrid had a strange expression on her face.

"..." Mu Hua twitched his lips. Very good, what biological weapons, national deterrence, emotions are ultimately a disaster.

It's hard to say about other ghosts and gods, but as for this type, wherever he goes, ghosts will descend. Wherever he goes, there will be haunted places, and whoever sees him will be upset.

As for the wars in the human world, it is usually not his turn to fight. If he can fight, other adventurers can also fight, and then the king will probably slap him in the face. "Can I refuse?" Mu Hua asked.

"Yes, you can refuse." Ingrid confirmed.

"Anything else? For example, the Courtyard War." Mu Hua asked again. Although the lord was an honorary noble, he had a fiefdom. Mu Hua felt that this power came a little too easily.

It is actually a very stupid idea to always want to use fists to fight against the powerful. The two are simply not in the same system or world.

The so-called powerful and wealthy, after being flattered for a long time, will develop a unique arrogance. Perhaps they will be afraid of fists, but they are also better at putting shackles on the fists.

They may be afraid of death, but they will definitely not be the first to die. They can splash the blood of countless lives on your fist until you dare not punch again.

So don't underestimate the powerful, even if they are powerless. And to fight against the powerful, it is best to mobilize the people who also need to be mobilized when the powerful are confronted. Otherwise, at least show some anti-human awareness.

"You can apply for assistance from the Adventurer's Guild in the Courtyard War. There is also the Brigade Alliance and the Crown Kingship. If you want to participate, you can usually apply in advance. For courtyards within the empire, the empire should be able to earn you more benefits." Ingrid said.

"..." Mu Hua was speechless. Well, if we follow the empire, we will take advantage of it if we encounter a courtyard war?

As for the demon tide rushing out of the courtyard, or situations similar to Penelope's, Mu Hua was too lazy to ask about them. As long as they were not the type to charge first to detect mines when something happened, it was acceptable to do something for the country and the people when necessary.

They have given all the benefits they should and shouldn't have given. In this case, if you really encounter some emergency crisis, is it still a big deal to protect your home and your country? You should just go there. Are you really a maggot? It's not necessarily easier to live in another place than here.

"Is that all?" Mu Hua found it hard to believe that the Magic Empire was too indulgent in its attitude towards him.

"There is still a little bit." When Ingrid said this, Mu Hua nodded secretly. Sure enough, there was still a little bit, which meant that the empire could not be too desireless.

"As a lord, you need to participate in some banquets hosted by nobles. If it is an invitation from the royal family, you cannot refuse without a legitimate reason." Ingrid said.

"Hmm?" Mu Hua questioned. What the hell? Party? He had thought about it many times, but he never expected that Ingrid would say such a word at this time.

Banquet? Isn't this supposed to be a welfare thing?
When Mu Hua was puzzled, a sudden voice suddenly came from beside them.

"Eh? Is this Basanimu's illusion?"

"Haha, what's so strange about that? You may have passed on some special abilities to your offspring. At the noble banquet, you will become the target of those noble ladies. Oh, or your genetic factors will become their target."

"The reason why the nobles of the Magic Empire have been able to last for so long is not only because of the achievements of their ancestors, but also because of the excellent knights who are composed of some outstanding members of the clan."

"It's nothing, it's not your responsibility anyway."

"This lady should be here for this reason, right? The princess of the empire? If she accompanies you to the banquet, it should save you a lot of trouble."

At some point, a masked man entered the hotel and walked towards where Mu Hua and Ingrid were while talking.

"Your Majesty!" Seeing the person coming, Ingrid stood up and saluted. Her attitude was much more serious than when she faced Mu Hua, and there was a hint of vigilance on her face.

"Greetings, sir." Tina and Helen, who were guarding Mu Hua, bowed respectfully to the visitor.

"Taoles, you are here too?" Mu Hua stood up and spoke unexpectedly.

"You made quite a commotion here. I was invited to deal with those mosquitoes. Mu Hua, you have finally touched upon the original sin."

The visitor waved to Ingrid, nodded to Tina and Helen, then turned to look at Mu Hua, who turned out to be the ghost god Taurus from the Demon Island.

"Excuse me, if I hadn't touched jealousy, I would have been dead by now." Mu Hua shook his head and said to Tao Lesi. (End of this chapter)
