True King's Ecstasy

She came forward hearing my words without questioning me but she had a confused look on her face just like everyone else.

"Aunt, thank you for helping me and my family all the time, I really appreciate your help and you know I really love you and your family so take this small gift," I touched her head and asked my system to start the bestowal.

"Luna, do it,"

[Individual Asumiko: Approved for the rank of viscount]

[Master, kindly ask her to choose a family name quickly]

"Aunt, quickly think of a family name you want to use, like a noble family name," I forgot that she didn't have a family name since she was from a commoner family.

"For what, Veli?" She was confused but believing his words, she quickly started to think about a suitable family name.

"I'll go with Sukeno which means something catchy," She didn't think much about it as she quickly blurted out the first name that came into her mind.

[Master, do you like to hand over this territory to Asumiko Sukeno and register it under the name of Sukeno viscounty]

"Yes, do it,"

[Requirments completed]

[Bestowing rank of viscount to Asumiko Sukeno]

Asumi felt her body developing a strange feeling that came directly from me.

"What's happening? She's shining," Everyone looked at the strange incident in front of them with their eyes wide open.

[Success]

"Thanks, Luna," I felt grateful for my system always supporting me.

[It's my duty master]

While I was talking with her in my mind, I saw my aunt looking at me with a strange look.

"What happened? I feel dizzy but this freshness, it's like my mana core expanded all of a sudden," She quickly took her seat as she felt unsteady.

"Everyone this is my skill, I didn't tell you until now but I have a unique skill which is quite rare and I don't plan on hiding my ability from you because from here onward, we need to have trust between us as we work together," Some of them had no idea what a unique skill was because most of them were villagers before they start to learn new things here.

"Unique skill?" Asumi shouted in surprise.

"Yeah, I can give something like a power boost with it using noble ranks, I just gave you the rank of viscount with this territory as a gift," Velian started explaining things to her one by one causing her mouth to be wide open.

"Me? A noble? No, that's impossible, Veli," She tried to deny the offer.

"Chiefs, what do you think is there someone more suitable than her to take this territory," Feeling dissatisfied with how she undermines herself, I decided to ask the others.

"I think she's the most suitable one because she's young unlike us and did most of the village tasks when you were absent,"

"I agree," Everyone agreed with my words leaving her no choice but to accept this gift.

"You will basically get a power boost and this territory will be officially yours and you can contact me with telepathy, if something happened, those are some benefits of this gift,"

"Oh yes, I forgot from now onward you're Asumiko Sukeno and make sure to use your family name for other family members too," I gave her a thumbs up to which she reacted with an exhausted look.

"Veli, you really had to give me such a big thing? I would have been satisfied with your-," She tried to say something but she quickly realised what she was about to do and blushed.

"Listen, from now on we are going to be officially a kingdom and we need a proper structure to control it," I started telling everyone how serious this is.

"Right now, we have only two territories in future it will change and when that happens, I want everyone to be ready," I said in a serious tone to show how confident I'm with my words.

As a leader even if the situation wasn't good, I had to remain confident to build the trust and loyalty of my subjects.

"We used to be little villagers that would die even if a goblin attacked us but now look at us, talking about conquering lands," They laughed hearing Charlotte's words.

"Well then, time to gift others," I said while showing a little smile.

A few minutes later everyone was talking among themselves feeling new feelings they felt when I bestowed ranks.

Only Charlotte was eligible for the baron rank as all the others were only able to get knight which is the lowest and to the group which I couldn't promote, I gave some physical gift so they won't feel bad about it.

"Listen, I have high trust and expectations for every one of you, don't betray me, stay with me and serve me good and you will end up being a noble in no time but only a few selected groups will have the chance and you will have to compete with my future subjects too, I won't show any favour because as a leader that's not something I should do," I gave them my advice before leaving the room with Asumi.

"Oh! I forgot, train well and try to take full advantage of what I gave you and Charlotte, if you want to pass your rank to your children in future, tell me I will do that," Hearing my words, they gave me a little bow before going back to their works.

"Aunt, I'm going back to the Keller territory, You and your family can use my mansion in this village as your home from now on, and train well for the upcoming war," She knew I was serious because I didn't have the normal casual tone in my voice.

"Veli, are we going to attack the kingdom?" She asked looking at me expecting an answer.

"No, we will wait for the empire to attack them and when their frustration is high, we will show our strength, a lot of people will die but I want them to join me, I don't want to save their royalty," I answered her while going back to meet mother to talk with her about my real rank.

"Veli, did your mother ask you about something?" Asumi questioned me with a blushed face.

"About what? She didn't ask something related to you," I was confused but I had a hint of what she was talking about with her blushed face.

"Aunt, do you still have that old feeling?" To my question, she just smiled at me while patting my head.

"I don't know but I know one thing for sure, you're more than nephew to me, but like you said I don't want to destroy my happy family so I won't listen to my stupid heart again," She answered me.

*Sigh

"I'm sorry," No matter how I tried when I thought about her two kids and uncle, I couldn't bring my heart to betray them.

"It's okay, I'm more than happy right now with my family,"

After having a small talk we parted away as she went back to her duties while I went back to meet my beautiful mother with an exciting look.
