Deus: We are all Lords

tLike the internet, it was full of information however unlike the internet, it had none of the distraction. As he made his research, various notifications could be heard in the background as hundreds of other lords surrendered to him

...

Lord [Era] wants to surrender to you, do you accept?

Lord [Anurag] wants to surrender to you, do you accept?

Lady [Chelsea] wants to submit to you, do you accept?"

Lady [Amina] wants to submit to you, do you accept?

...

tThe messages kept coming in however kingsley didn't move to accept them or even acknowledge them since he had his room of clones to do so for him. He understand that such a thing would happen after all he had capture what he could only describe as an entire biome since the Dead lands was unique in its own way.

[Ehm, @Lord [Kingsley] i have a question, now that you have conquered the Deadlands what about us whose territory is in the deadlands]

tA private message appeared from someone that didn't seem to be a governor. Kingsley saw it and immediately dropped his research as a wide smile appeared on his face.

[You all have to decide for yourselves, either you surrender peacefully or we force you to do so, its that simple]

Either way he will get what he wanted though he didn't plan to focus on them for now, he was more on the National development phase. At the moment, the roads to connect the four kingdoms to Deus was ongoing.

[Oh, okay] the lord replied after a few minutes later

Since there was no more question, and the rest of the messages were either from his governors asking permission to do one thing or the other or asking if any of their family members had being found yet

Replying as many as he could, Kingsley returned to his research and after a few minutes, Kingsley came across a set of symbols... African symbols meant to represent certain things and almost instantly Kingsley knew he had found what he was looking for.

"Gye Nyame, I fear nothing except the omnipotence of God... Damn, that's cool" Kingsley said as he read what was written under the symbol

The symbol was cool enough to be used as a flag so his work here was done so he intended to focus on something better, his Governors. They were now fully recognized Governors with their Badge office despite how odd that it was issued now.

Since they were governors then they needed to be governing a State and what most of them had at the moment was at most a village despite how large the territory itself had grown with a population of at most 100.

"Also the number of Governors is already ridiculous... but this world seems to be big enough" Kingsley thought

He had around 700 governors or more which meant that his kingdom would have at the very least 700 states in it and only god knew how much he would expand his territory.

"Ah enough of this, first you" Kingsley said as he decided to take things step by step.

He focused on the crown given to him. He had no problems with it in fact it was perfect for him, it was fancy but not too much that it began to look weird. In simple terms, it was just a simple crown however its effects were sort of weak for him

"This should do it" Kingsley whispered as he injected his power into the crown and began to modify it

"Your majesty, it's time for training" a familiar voice called out almost scaring Kingsley off his throne

Turning to the source, Kingsley saw the Demon king, Viktor standing in full protective gear and holding two swords, one in each hand.

"It's 4 pm already?" Kingsley asked surprised

"Yes, your majesty and also Lady Hestia would like to know you would actually be creating a Dwarven Monarch?"

"Why?" Kingsley asked not even in the least surprised that Hestia could eavesdrop after all the entire city was her body, if she couldn't hear him then he would find it suspicious

"In her words, I quote 'I will finally get to rest and sleep all day'... I think she means to say that her current job would suit a dwarf more than her" Viktor replied

"As if she can even sleep" Kingsley snorted as he collected the sword from Viktor and they began walking to the training ground in the castle

His bodyguard aka the Thrones following him every step of the way. The two talked about the state of the kingdom as they walked, after all Viktor was his advisor and the head of internal affairs which meant everything within the kingdom.

"Also Lady Euroa suggested a public coronation, it will help to establish the existing hierarchy better... most people don't have any idea what relationship we and the four kingdoms share" Viktor said as soon as they reached the training area

"That... is actually a good idea but the roads are not yet complete, also do we even know the existing hierarchy"

"Yes, You are king, they are vassal states, it's that simple... whether they agree to it or not, it is how it is" Viktor stated bluntly

"Very true but I wish things were that straight forward" Kingsley replied as they both entered the training ground

Despite all his power in his territory, Kingsley knew that he was unbeatable and a true invincible being however that was only in his territory. Though he system may have made it impossible for him to leave the territory.

He felt that one day, he will leave it either by his own power if possible or by someone or something's power. If such a scenario was to ever take place then he will be helpless.

In preparation for such an impossible scenario, he decided to do the smart thing and train after all there were levels to 'knowing' something.

"Remember full strength and to the death" Kingsley saud after a few minutes of warm up

"As you wish, sire" Viktor replied as he took a stance with his sword

Obeying Kingsley's order, Viktor unleashed his aura as the air quickly heated up to the extent of almost burning the grass on the floor.

Seeing the effects of his aura, Kingsley simply smiled since unlike practically everyone in his territory, he didn't have some special aura he could show off. His power was based around intent if he wishes for a powerful aura to show off then Viktor would loose all morale to fight.

Viktor himself, had no problems attacking his master with his full power since he knew that no matter what he did, his master would never be in danger, it was just that simple.

His worry for Kingsley's safety was thrown away on the first day of the training based on Kingsley's order and actions.

"Ready?" Viktor asked

"Sure" Kingsley replied as Viktor suddenly vanished from his original spot

Reappearing directly beside Kingsley, he slashed out with his sword only for Kingsley to block it and be sent flying through the air. However he regained his balance after falling a few meters back.

To the current Kingsley, Viktor was an absolutely invincible character. He was powerful and extremely skilled, however he was fighting with only the know how, weak stats and no experience.

To ensure that the experience gained in each training session was well instilled into his muscle memory and mind, Kingsley preferred to fight the full blown monarch Viktor with only his weak stats.

Of course, he knew that Viktor was still holding a lot back but it was better this way as it meant he will be forced to use his brain and skill to overcome the challenge instead of just stats.

The fight lasted only a few seconds before Kingsley had a sword in his heart. Unlike many anime or movies would tell you, this was unfortunately how a real sword fight went, it was quick and a skilled fighter would know that talking to you was a true waste of precious time.

"Your reflexes are improving" Viktor said to the dead body as he pulled out the sword only for Kingsley to quickly stand up as though nothing had happened.

It was his omnipotence in play here, he didn't know he had achieved this however he knew that he wouldn't be able to die in his territory no matter the reason.

"Finally... anyway, spear" Kingsley said as he turned to the guard who was standing in the vicinity.

...

You have acquired the S-rank growth title [Sword trainee]

...

A system message appeared as Kingsley smiled knowing that his training was working. Unlike what he read in many mangas or light novels, skills or even titles weren't that easy to acquire.

The fact that he had acquired the titles and skills he had easily was world defying. He knew he had died at least 200 times in just the past two weeks and all he got was a growth skill that was still at E-rank.
