Chapter 751 Favorable Developments for Lothur?

Five days later...

As demons, humans, beasts, and various other races began to hunt Lothur across the continent, sending their top experts, the Ritter Motor Company opened its 2nd and 3rd branches across the empire!

With construction progressing rapidly across the empire and an ever-increasing amount of coin coming into the company, their operations across Leopoldine were becoming more and more effective.

Not only that, but while the current expansion is focused solely on the empire, the more Lothur's cars begin to travel the local roads and other cities, the more exposure the company would have to foreigners.

People from practically all of Leopoldine's neighboring provinces were already aware of the wonders called cars, and the number of orders was growing much faster than expected.

Linn Province was the most attractive place in the empire these days, with many visitors heading to Peters City to see the model city of the Ritter Motor Company business.

With new factories being completed and daily production reaching 400 units, even cities outside Leopoldine were getting their first cars!

To make more coins, the Viktoria-led group had introduced a preferential option, whereby anyone wishing to take delivery of their vehicle early would have to pay a bonus of between 20% and 40% of the purchase price.

As a result, the rich and hastier got their cars and took them to other states, generating even more revenue for the company.

...

"Wow, can you believe it? In the blink of an eye, we reached 500,000 orders!" Viktoria commented to her harem sisters as she relaxed on a couch in Lothur's first house, hunched over from a long day's work.

The other three women of Lothur were still in seclusion, gathering as many crystals as possible to increase their strength.

Since there had been no major problems with them leaving their seclusion recently, they continued their internal training, only stopping when they needed to eat and rest a bit.

At that moment, Elke and Annaliese were there with Viktoria, eating and chatting with Lothur's wife, while Rebecca was at the family headquarters.

"That's really impressive, big sister," Annaliese commented with a smile. "With these numbers, we'll be able to reach every province in the empire in no time."

"Hmm, as a matter of fact, I have already started a new expansion targeting the remaining provinces where we have not yet started our work. With the completion of some work in the two cities we recently started, we can focus on other areas." She said with her eyes closed but with a smile on her lips, as it was rewarding to lead the expansion of this company.

The company's high-level partners were a real pain in the ass. But even though she had to deal with some of them almost daily, Viktoria couldn't help but be satisfied with how things were going.

If everything went according to her plans for the next few months, by the middle of next year, Leopoldine would have cars driving around all its major cities. Also, the Ritter Motor Company's affordable communications network would finally cover the entire empire!

When that happened, it would only be a matter of time before various parts of the continent would be reached by the network designed by Lothur.

Viktoria was happy to think about how amazing that would be. Still, the people of the Koch family were even more excited because it would give them great power over the empire and, eventually, the continent!

If that happened, Lothur would be ahead of everyone in knowing the plans of those who used his network.

...

While Peter's City experienced another busy day with tourists and residents enjoying themselves in their cars or on intercity transport, the empire's capital was a bit quieter than expected for the beginning of a new ruler's government.

After the many exemptions for the Ritter Motor Company and the Linn Province, the new emperor received virtually no opposition, contrary to what might have been expected. On the opposite, despite the initial surprise, considering that most of the empire's high-ranking power and purchasing power were Lothur's partners in one way or another, they had greatly appreciated this action that would benefit them.

Not only that, but the Ritter family had recently become a noble family of the state after Emperor Klaus Leopoldine recognized Lothur as such.

Some might find this strange, as young Ritter was a fugitive wanted by the Church. But without confirmation that he was a demon-human hybrid, no one could say this state supported an abomination.

With the Ritter family becoming a noble power and an alliance with House Leopoldine becoming known to the state, the society of Lothur was safer to continue in this state than before.

As such, Klaus' subjects were naturally very fond of his leadership, and even Daemon, who had always been a problem for the state, had not moved yet.

Many believed that he would bring chaos to the domain, but after so many actions in favor of his son, this man had not acted.

Not only that, but after a long time, there were no longer any bounties on his head, and he had been pardoned for all his crimes.

Daemon was aware of all this but did not want to return to the imperial family. He had lost interest in acting against his younger brother, who seemed to have lost his former essence and become a slave to Lothur.

Daemon was not like the other people of this state. He could see that his second brother would never do such a thing if something weren't going on. Considering how strong Lothur must have become by now, he wisely realized that Klaus was no longer his enemy because of his son.

Not wanting to interfere with Lothur's plans for Leopoldine, Daemon was living in seclusion in the area of the Three Great Lakes Region, where one of the beasts had recently entered the 4th stage.

But while the interior of that state had handled the Ritter Motor Company's actions very well, making room for the company's development, things had not been so simple outside of that state.

As more people learned about the Ritter Motor Company and its product, more orders, and tourists arrived in Peters City. Aside from the powers already associated with the company, several others found Lothur's venture unsavory.

What was happening in Leopoldine was awful to the powers in the neighboring states!

Unknowingly, Viktoria was attracting trouble for herself and everyone in Leopoldine!
