Both Caesar and Victoria stood and spoke in one breath, "We will not fail Your Excellency." Then they sat down again
Caesar still maintained the same cold features, as if this was something he took for granted, while Victoria smiled from ear to ear in a rare sight.
After Robin received the confirmation from Caesar and Victoria, he looked at Descartes, then Fugon, and the rest of the locals, "The distribution of lands and colonization process will take a long period, perhaps a year or two. During this period, a large part of our army will be out of service to build colonies or explore mines, develop the land, and other matters, so I will leave the protection of the borders completely to you during this period. Move all your armies immediately to protect the lands of the Empire, while Caesar's and Victoria's legions will be there for support if any big attack occurs. All of you, keep in mind that we will remain in a purely defensive position for the coming period."
"No one will cross that border." The Leaf avatar of the Tree Father stood up, affirmed, and then sat down again. Although he didn't show the same degree of submissiveness as the rest, he was good enough to be overlooked.
"..Yes, Your Excellency, all our armies will move, even the reserve ones," Fugon spoke on behalf of the rest in an uncertain tone... It felt strange that he would be protecting invaders as they colonized the land of his ancestors, but he had no other choice, he had already chosen a side.
The good thing about it now is that the backs of the tribes have become protected and they no longer have to fear moving their entire army in one direction so that Tree Father does not attack another from the other side. For example, Fugon was afraid to move his entire army to attack Tree Father Hoffenheim because he was afraid of Tree Father Descartes. The rest of the tribes likewise participated with approximately half of their armies, but now they can move their entire army without worry, It's a strange feeling for them to have a safe rear that one can overlook
Robin nodded at them and then turned his gaze to Billy, "You will be responsible for providing the local people with weapons and talismans, giving them all the techniques available to the public, teaching them the methods of Rune Drawing and making divine weapons blacksmithing, integrating them into the point system, and also teaching them our language, you can also communicate with any other local tribe and speak in the name of the Empire."
"Trust that I will not put the Empire in a weak position." Billy felt very happy. He knew that Robin had responded to his request to make him an official spokesman for the Empire
"Of course you won't." Robin showed a meaningful smile and then looked at Jabba, "I know that forming a research team takes some time, but you have something that you need to complete immediately. According to the report that Headquarters Head Emily gave me, most of the spoils found in Hoffenheim's body are not yet known, so it would be unfair if I used it as a kind of reward, and I don't even know its value... So I want you and Old Gu Barnet to conduct tests on each item and put a price on it according to your understanding of its uses, and the price must be in points, then hand everything over to the Imperial Treasury and give them a list contains the value of everything in points: a wooden sword, for example, is worth 50 points, a certain flower is worth 70 points, and so on... If you come across items that require a longer search or are preferable to remain the property of the Empire alone, you have the freedom to decide that."
"Yes, Your Excellency." The two nodded
After Jabba nodded, Robin looked at Zara with a smile, "I want you to choose a few trusted members of the Burton family to take care of the Imperial treasury, and you will be responsible for it. Anything entering or leaving Imperial property must pass through you first, okay sweety?"
"Noted that!" Zara raised her right hand and giggled
After he returned to looking at Alexander with a serious look again, "You will be responsible for supervising everything that was just said, a governor is to say, I want a miniature kingdom on the back of Greenland within two years maximum. Can you do it?"
"Me? This..." Alexander opened his eyes wide, he did not expect such a great honor, especially after failing to overthrow Hoffenheim for two years.
"I know it's a big responsibility and that's exactly why I chose you. Don't you want it? I can give it to someone else..." Robin spoke seriously.
"Hooh~" Alexander let out a long exhale and showed a full bow, "This subordinate will do everything in his power to please Your Excellency."
"..Good.. Good..." Finally, Robin leaned back, then closed his eyes and looked at the ceiling. It seemed as if he had lifted a huge burden from his shoulders.
What he just did seemed like a special missions for a limited time, but he indirectly changed this war council into an administrative council ready to lead the Empire without him... Yes, without him!
The benefit of the Empire for him is to collect resources, protect him, provide a suitable environment for his research, and perhaps use it to force his views. If he is the one who has to lead the Empire and protect it all the time, then what is the benefit of it?!
After a few minutes, Robin opened his mouth again, still closing his eyes, "Emily."
"I am here, Your Excellency." The current head of headquarters stood up
"Check all the attendees' contributions and turn them into points, then hand over a list to Zara that includes everyone's names, and in front of it is the number of points they collected during the war."
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Emily bowed slightly and sat back down, already beginning to think about how to calculate something like this
Then Robin opened his eyes again and passed them to the audience, "After Emily finishes making the list and Jabba finishes putting prices on everything, you will be able to exchange your points for anything you want as long as you have enough points, and whatever it is you take will be YOURS, no one will ask you how you used it, burn it if you want, But... If you want something for battle or something related to strengthening the Empire, you can request it directly from the Treasury staff, and all you have to do is describe what you want and for what purpose, and a team of members of the Burton family affiliated with the Treasury will investigate the use of that item later and whether or not it was used in the way it was taken for, do you think this is inappropriate?"

"We can't ask for more, Your Excellency. We thank you for your generosity." Alexander spoke with a smile on everyone's behalf. Thinking about what he could exchange for all the contributions he had accumulated in the war made him burn with excitement!
Robin nodded a few times and went back to resting his head on the chair, "As for the buds we improved, their number is approximately 20 million or something, they will be placed temporarily at Elizabeth's disposal to be used in building the colonies. After that, a number of them will remain affiliated with the Empire to carry out the tasks of caring for the colonies and working in Blacksmithing workshops and all that kind of hard work, and the rest will be priced in points and treated like the rest of the spoils. Does anyone have a problem?"
"No, Your Excellency!" Everyone spoke in one breath
"Good... Billy, there is something else I want you to take care of, you may contact Alfred Marley and the rest of the administrators on Planet Jura to help you with it."
"Alfred? What is it?" Billy raised his eyebrows
"Not all the soldiers will like the decision to move their families here, and not everyone is supposed to like it either. Whoever refuses to move his family and stay here forever, let him return to Planet Jura in an honorable manner, and give him a house within the Imperial Capital on the Central Continent... It is time to fill this ghost city with residents who deserve it." Robin spoke slowly
"Ownership of a house within the Imperial Capital?! This… Your Excellency, perhaps you should reconsider? If you announce this, I'm afraid that at least half of the army will decide to return to Jura!"
"What's wrong with that? Placing some of our best soldiers in our hometown is not a bad idea, and we no longer need a huge army here since we have the local tribes. They are already strong and experienced, after equipping them with weapons, giving them the foundation modification technique, and some law techniques, I refuse to believe they'll be weaker than our men... Don't you think, Fugon?" Robin looked towards the end of the table, smiling
"Of course, Your Excellency, of course!" Fugon nodded quickly, he didn't know if this was a blessing or a curse
"...As you wish, then." Billy furrowed his eyebrows slightly, housing all of these people in the Imperial Capital was a huge task, contrary to the way Robin said it
"...There's something else I want you to do," Robin muttered
"Just order!" He hit Billy on the chest
Robin waited for a few seconds and finally opened his mouth, "…I want you to gather the remnants of the Burton Family from the Ancestral Continent and send them to the Imperial City. Only those with important positions and members of the Shadow Swords are allowed to remain in the Ancestral Continent."
"There's no need for that, right? The Black Sun Kingdom is our home and-"
"Just do what I say, okay?!" Robin gave Billy a serious look
"...Okay."
"....Hooo~" Robin went back to resting his head a little, then looked at faces in front of him for about two minutes in utter silence before standing up, "In the incoming period, I will start preparing for a major invasion."
"Invasion? Are we going to another world?" Alexander said excitedly, the others also looked at Robin with skepticism and some excitement
"...You can say this, something big is going to happen and we must be prepared for it." Robin smiled, "Take care of everything according to today's arrangements. I don't want to hear anything about the wars of Planet Greenland again, no matter how much you soak this land in green and red blood! And here is a piece of good news to think about... Soon I will fulfill my promise and make you all Martial Emperors!"
