First, there is the problem of output exceeding internal supply and demand.
At present, Castella's expansion and development are restricted by two factors. On one hand, there is the encirclement of the human empire, which means that Castella's expansion needs to be slowed down for the time being. On the other hand, the expansion of the Calamity Beast Horde is also being curbed by the Gray Wind Calamity Beast Horde.
Today, due to the slowdown in development, despite significant tax cuts and construction, the output within the territory of Castella and the Calamity Beasts has gradually increased thanks to good public security, stable livelihoods, and moderate policies.
The grain and iron ore of the Earl of Dorne, the wool, timber and leather of the Earl of Castella, the wheat of Brendor and the livestock of the Baron of Gruul, as well as the special products of the Ancaru Forest, have already saturated the internal demand.
Despite acquiring three new territories, the population did not increase significantly.
Originally, this surplus output could be alleviated by supplying the calamity beasts with unlimited resources.
Currently, due to the containment by the Graywind Cataclysm beast horde, the calamity beast horde cannot expand further, and the number of beastmen has remained stable at around 10,000, which is gradually becoming saturated.
The Duchess's trade agreement solved Castella's first immediate problem.
While not preparing to launch a war against the encirclement, the surplus output should be traded abroad in exchange for coal, iron ore, industrial products, salt, and butter, which are currently in dire need of Castella.
As for money?
He wasn't like those bloated nobles who hoarded gold and resources indefinitely, unwilling to spend a single penny to strengthen the military and the livelihoods of their territories, even if they rotted and stinked.
The so-called luxury handicrafts and gold diggers are of no use or benefit whatsoever to the development of a territory. For a territory, the resources obtained in exchange for the money spent are the most valuable.
The resources acquired in this exchange will further enhance the strength of the Calamity Beast Horde in preparation for the upcoming large-scale war against the Graywind Calamity Beast Horde.
Chapter 109 The Maid's Milky Honey Tea (Updates will begin tonight)
To date, Asmodae controls four territories.
The County of Dorne, the Viscount of Brendor, the Baron of Gruul, and including the County of Castellia.
Currently, the territory he controls comprises 115,000 acres of land, with a population of 50,000 to 60,000, and it is still growing.
The output of each territory, if ranked from highest to lowest, is as follows: Earl of Dorne, Earl of Castella, Viscount of Brendor, and Baron of Gruel.
The Earldom of Dorne, situated along the Roa River, boasts fertile soil and numerous arable fields, primarily producing grain. It also has the largest population. Originally, it also generated huge profits from the slave trade and slave gladiatorial arenas, but these have now been abolished. It is now primarily a grain and fishery production area.
Secondly, there is Castella. Although most of the forest is forest terrain, there is not much arable land and the land is not considered fertile. Before he took control, there were also unsettling factors such as the Beastman rebellion.
However, as a result, after the Calamity Beasts developed the Ancaru Forest, they also gained rich and stable production in fur, forestry, and hunting. At the same time, due to the Calamity Beasts' expansion wars, luxury items such as Angry Horn Beast Bone Powder, which circulated among nobles, and tree spirit alchemy sap, also became stable production sources for Castelia.
Then there is the Viscount Brendor, a fertile territory along the Roe River with abundant farmland and a population even larger than that of Castells. Its main products are wheat and barley.
Most importantly, Brendor is the only one of the four territories that occupies a small iron mine on the banks of the Rue River, where the iron ore mined is of very high quality, and the iron ore produced deep in the mine can even be used directly for smelting and forging.
Brendor is the only one of the four territories he controls that can sustain the current military expansion needs. However, it is clear that Brendor was suppressed by the Earl of Dorne and several surrounding earls because of this iron mine, making it difficult for him to expand his military power.
Last in line is Baron Gruul, controlled by the beautiful knight Dolores.
Although this noble and charming female knight, with her voluptuous and alluring figure and haughty and seductive knightly demeanor, may seem to lack much talent for governance, in reality, this female knight commander's governance is far superior to that of those greedy and lewd noble lords.
The 10,000 acres of land belonging to Groul are all flat plains. Although the soil is fertile and the climate is mild, making it very suitable for farming, it is difficult for the land to become prosperous if it is only farmed and relies on fishing.
Therefore, this female knight commander, while preserving the arable land that produced grain, developed horse breeding, animal husbandry, and dairy products, making this territory of only 10,000 acres, which had no special output, relatively richer than other territories.
Of the four territories, Gruul was the one he had to worry about the least. Its basic economic foundation and people's livelihood were not ruined by the nobles and lords because of Dolores's suppression. In addition, the main force of the war was the Dawn Princess Knights, so this territory was not affected by the war at all. After Dolores submitted, the unification of the territory went very smoothly.
After the four territories were integrated into one, both the population and the size of the territory far exceeded the territory and population that a count could control. Moreover, it also had a wide range of commodity trade, including forestry, animal husbandry, grain production, agriculture, iron ore, fishery, and fur.
Although it is far inferior to the Grand Duke of Bordeaux and the Electorate of Scarante, it is already considered a powerful local territory.
But for Asmodae, these four territories were enough to form a base for expanding his army and preparing for the establishment of a second empire and wars of annexation.
However, he is not in a hurry to launch a war of annexation before resolving the several hidden problems within his territory.
The first problem is that the territory has very little industrial consumables such as iron and coal, so the territory is currently only at the medieval stage of civilization development and cannot enter the industrial system.
Currently, the territory only has one iron mine in Brendor and a small amount of scattered iron ore production within the Earl of Dorne's territory, which can only meet the basic needs for military expansion. There are no iron mines discovered in the Ancaru Forest, which is currently under the control of the Calamity Beasts.
As for coal, it can be solved by burning charcoal. Although wood charcoal does not burn as long as coal and is not as easy to obtain, it has the advantage of being next to the Ankaru Forest, where the timber is inexhaustible.
However, while charcoal can solve the immediate problem, it does not mean that the Ankaru Forest can be cut down indiscriminately without any regard for consequences.
The Lord of Changes's Eye of Insight subtly warned him that if this living primeval forest were excessively logged, the beings deep within the Ankaru Forest, along with the countless tree spirits and tree demons within, would unleash a wave of revenge.
Currently, it can only meet some of the demand. If further development of the industrial system is needed, it is necessary to either expand import trade or develop coal and iron mines.
If we want to develop coal and iron mines, it's simple. We can break through the encirclement and take over these seven territories to obtain at least two iron mines and three coal mines, at which point we can develop an industrial system.
But it's clearly not the right time. He has just finished conquering two territories, and the threat of the Gray Wind Calamity Beasts is imminent. If he were to immediately continue conquering more territories, the Grand Duke of Bordeaux's army might arrive before he has even finished fighting the Gray Wind Calamity Beasts.
Therefore, the Duchess's current trade contracts will allow her to convert the surplus output within her territory and the Ancaru Forest into coal and iron imports, stockpiling them in advance to prepare for the upcoming industrialization.
The second problem currently facing the territory is the population issue.
Thanks to various tax reduction policies, large tracts of fertile land within the territory that were previously occupied and abandoned by nobles were being cultivated one by one. Coupled with low taxes and lenient policies, the influx of people from surrounding territories and refugees led to a rapid increase in population.
However, this population of approximately 60,000 is clearly insufficient for industrialization.
After all, maintaining the iron mines, food, fisheries, animal husbandry, and large amount of arable land of the entire territory was already a bit of a stretch. If industrialization were to be carried out, it would easily lead to a shortage of manpower.
However... if we could find a way to connect with the mountain dwarves who border the Electorate of Naregas in the east, and introduce some dwarves to develop some industry, that would be a good option.
The last question is about the current military reforms within the territory.
Two hundred longbowmen, six hundred super-long spear phalanx soldiers, and sixty-six Purple Nightingale Knights—this was Castella's military strength before the Brendor and Gruul Wars.
Following this war of annexation, and with continued military expansion, Castella's military strength has now grown to include two hundred longbowmen equipped with cedar longbows, one hundred crossbowmen equipped with pulley crossbows, and eight hundred soldiers in a phalanx of super-long spears.
The number of Purple Nightingale Knights has increased to 120, and the number of Dawn Knights has also increased to 120 after Dolores recently selected a group of defeated princess knights and added newly trained princess knights.
If we include the fact that he now has semi-control over the Platinum Rose Knights, the number of knights under his command has exceeded three hundred.
However, those sixty-six Platinum Rose Knights can only be used in wars outside of the Imperial Wars, that is, only in wars against the Gray Wind Calamity Beast Horde. They are not allowed to participate in wars against encirclement networks, wars against Imperial territories, or wars against forces outside the Empire.
This would give the Grand Duke of Bordeaux a pretext to intervene in the war.
In summary, the current military strength is sufficient to deal with encirclement warfare, but if facing the Gray Wind Calamity Beast Horde, only the two Princess Knight Orders and the Platinum Rose Princess Knight Order under his control can cope.
Castile's existing military forces will remain unchanged.
After finishing his morning administrative duties, Asmodé casually put down the report in his hand, picked up the slightly cold red tea beside him, and took a sip.
"Would you like another cup of black tea, Master?"
Isabella gently bent down, her slender waist swaying gracefully, her two soft, fragrant breasts like two plump peaches swaying gently before Asmodie. Her sleeveless shirt was slightly stretched by her soft, white breasts, which swelled up to reveal a hint of milky color.
This gentle and beautiful white-silk maid, though her plump breasts and fragrant buttocks are not as mature and soft as Alice's plump and juicy body, and compared to Osalia's elegant and mature beauty, she also lacks some of the juicy and fleshy feel of mature flesh.
But this gentle and graceful charm, the sweet and honey-like fragrance that it exudes, and the plump and mature curves are all extremely suitable for the profession of maid, which requires gentleness.
“Okay.” Asmodeus nodded, glancing casually at the currently closed closet.
After the glamorous morning banquet, Duchess Olissa and Countess Olissa went into the wardrobe to change their stockings and disheveled evening gowns, which were already soaked with the nectar of a woman.
The Allure Banquet tonight is still a bit early, so they plan to change into cool silk dresses and accompany him to stroll through the streets of Castelia.
However, before they came out, he still had some free time to vent his frustrations from the morning.
Asmodé's gaze swept over the tea table beside him.
Isabella, the gentle and beautiful maid in white silk, was currently facing away from him without any defenses. She stretched out her two soft, plump buttocks, which were clad in pure white crystal maid heels, and raised them high as if waiting for him to violate them at will.
This seemingly gentle and beautiful personal maid had her breasts, which were as soft and creamy as creamy clams, and her tender and moist nipples, completely undisguised.
Encased in these creamy, translucent white stockings, the exposed maid's attire caused drops of nectar to glisten out, soaking the already exclusive white silk vulva, which was at Asmodie's mercy, into an extremely slippery and moist state, clearly ready to be violated by him at any moment.
Chapter 110 The Maid's Punishment
For Isabella, her life, marked by the loss of her father at a young age and her dependence on her gentle and beautiful wife, was rather uneventful, as she relied on her work as a factory worker to make a living.
Although Isabella found it slightly strange that, despite the fact that neither she nor her daughter—the daughter being gentle and beautiful with a honey-like, ripe, and tender figure, and the other possessing a mature and alluring figure with a ripe, tender figure—had ever been harassed by any man in the slightest.
Those noble private soldiers who were clearly barbaric and greedy and often humiliated and violated them, and those lewd nobles who were fat and only knew how to degenerate, always behaved very calmly when they saw the mother and daughter, and never overstepped or offended them in the slightest.
As a result, the mother and daughter have never had any contact with any male to this day, which is hardly a good thing in a greedy and lewd depraved empire.
However, this situation changed several months ago after the riot at the Dorne slave arena.
On a full moon night, she saw with her own eyes that her once gentle and elegant, mature and beautiful mother had developed a peach-colored mark on her smooth, jade-like forehead, resembling a combination of bat wings and a peach-colored heart.
Her former gentle and elegant demeanor has transformed into a seductive and alluring charm. Her gentle, clear eyes have turned into alluring pink hearts. Her originally mature and alluring figure, thanks to the tight-fitting, revealing black leather outfit that glistens with a gel-like sheen, makes her look like a succubus queen from legends.
After that day, her alluring and beautiful mother disappeared without a trace. In order to find her mother's whereabouts, she went to Earl of Dorn's castle to work as a maid.
Fortunately, although this greedy and lewd fat pig count often treated his maids as sex toys and violated and humiliated them at will, her characteristic of not being noticed by males still existed, so that she did not touch any males at all until the castle was captured.
However, this characteristic of hers seemed to have no effect on the males who were caught up in a frenzy. When those Earl's soldiers, their eyes filled with rage, rioted and surrounded her in a corner of the garden, ready to pounce on her and violate her ripe body.
Asmodeus's tall, strong figure then entered her panicked and desperate vision.
She couldn't quite remember when the riot ended or when Asmodie left. When she came to her senses, all that remained on the garden floor were scattered pieces of soldiers' flesh.
After that, with a sense of shame, she used the travel expenses she collected from the soldiers and her own unique characteristics to arrive in Castella, and inexplicably attended the maid's seductive banquet.
At the banquet, she had only intended to repay the man for saving her in a small way.
However, she seemed to have forgotten that the banquet was a seductive banquet exclusively for the maids, and she was wearing only creamy white stockings that made her body feel shy and weak, a backless suspender white gauze apron, and a pair of platform suspender white crystal high heels that made her body feel shy and weak when she met Asmodie.
As she bent her plump, slender waist before Asmodeus to brew him black tea, her soft, fragrant, creamy buttocks rising gently, before her shyness could even transform into tender affection...
Asmody then lifted one of her plump, soft, white-stockinged legs, forcing her into an extremely shameful split while lying face down on the table. In front of the shy gazes of all the maids, he thrust his hips forward, and amidst her shy, soft, and beautiful moans, he violated and possessed this gentle and beautiful maid in white stockings, making her his property. She was also the first maid to be violated by Asmody at this maid seduction banquet.
She couldn't remember the details of the subsequent allure-inducing banquet very clearly. She only vaguely remembered that her originally shy and gentle nature seemed to have transformed into another seductive and beautiful woman at the maid's allure-inducing banquet. Her pair of plump, soft, white-stockinged legs intertwined and wrapped around Asmodie's hard and solid waist, welcoming the man's invasion.
Recalling the seductive and wanton spring scene of that time, Isabella still felt her honeyed and soft body was very tender, and her creamy and ripe vulva under the white stockings was constantly oozing drops of sweet and ripe female honey spring juice.
In particular, right now, she was only wearing these creamy white stockings without any covering, and in front of Asmodie, she raised her two soft, plump, white-stockinged buttocks high, just like the maid at the seductive banquet, clearly in a posture where she could be violated at Asmodie's will.
As Asmodée's footsteps moved behind her, the gentle and shy white-stockinged maid Isabella still maintained her posture of raising her soft, white-stockinged buttocks high behind her, her two soft, creamy, and moist white breasts hanging down with gravity, stretching her sleeveless shirt open and revealing a hint of milky, mellow white spring color.
"Please wait a moment, is the tea ready yet? ~Eek?~~"
Before Isabella could straighten her slender waist and turn to serve Asmodie, she felt a pair of warm, smooth hands caress her raised, ripe, white-stockinged buttocks, which were as white as creamy peaches. The smooth, warm fingertips even slipped into the soft, sweet, and fragrant cleft between her buttocks.
"Eeeeee?~~ Knight~ Commander?~~ Hmm?~~ Madam?~~ And~ the Duchess?~~ Hmm?~~ The horse~ is almost finished changing its clothes and coming out?~~ Please~ return it?"
Isabella's honey-ripened, soft, gourd-shaped flesh softened completely with just a gentle kneading of her tender, silky buttocks, and her white-silk, ripe vulva gushed out sweet, ripe female nectar, resembling a servant maid waiting to be impregnated.
Between her pink and tender lips, soft, shy moans and hints escaped, but as she said that, her two soft, moist buttocks, like creamy peaches, had already begun to welcome Asmodie's advances.
"Eeoh?~~ Ride?~ Knight Commander?~ There~ there?~ Hmm?~~"
As Asmody caressed her two soft, ripe buttocks as if kneading a ball of cream, his warm fingertips, through the thin, translucent white stockings, gently parted her smooth, white, ripe vulva.
Isabella's hands had completely stopped moving, and she was only leaning softly on the tea table. Her two mounds of milky breasts rippled wildly back and forth, creating soft and fragrant waves. Her peach-pink eyes were filled with a soft and lazy look, and her fragrant lips exuded a hint of aphrodisiac orchid fragrance as they opened and closed.
"Just do your job well."
Asmody casually issued the order, his large hands freely kneading and violating the maid's two mounds of milky, ripe, soft, white silk-clad buttocks. His thick, ferocious, fiery beast, like a centaur lancer about to launch a violent charge, pressed against the maid's ripe, soft, milky jade clam.
The thick, fiery beast head, through the thin, creamy white stockings, slightly parted the two smooth, ripe white honey clams amidst the gurgling, sticky honey-like sounds. This oily, greasy, milky honey-soaked vulva, already soaked in the nectar of mature female flowers, was only held by this arrogant and savage centaur lance before being kissed by the beast head with a sweet, spring-like charm.
"Okay?~Okay?~Mmm?~Knight Commander?~~" Isabella supported her soft and juicy body, her plump waist half-collapsed, her soft and sweet lips slightly biting her soft and sweet lips, her two soft and sweet white silk buttocks were about to tremble and fall, turning into milky peaches and grinding against Asmodie's waist.
But then, she realized that Asmodian's thick, grotesque, arrogant lance, after being moistened with drops of sweet, ripe female nectar, had spread open her honey-like vulva and squeezed upwards between her two soft, white-silk-clad buttocks, which were as smooth as ripe peaches, and pressed against her delicate, soft, white-silk-clad bud.
"Eeeee? ~Knight~Knight Commander? ~That~that's not it? ~Eeeeeee?~~~~"
Before Isabella's shy moan could even fade, Asmodeus, embracing her two plump, silky buttocks, thrust his hips forward like a heavy pestle pounding rice cakes. It was as if he had collided with two mounds of semi-solidified cream and honey, causing her buttocks to collapse, trembling and rippling like soft, creamy butter, splashing nectar everywhere.
This gentle and beautiful maid in white silk was forced to raise her long and elegant head with her sweet, soft tongue half-protruding under Asmodie's rough and wild onslaught. Her pair of rich, milky breasts burst open her sleeveless, see-through shirt and swayed wildly up and down with Asmodie's violent and savage assault, spilling drops of sweet, milky liquid onto the teacup in front of her.
"Eek? ~~I'm so sorry? ~~Eeoh? ~~I couldn't do my job as a maid properly? ~~Eeee? ~~"
"Isabella?~~Yes~Eeeohohohoh?~Belongs to the Knight Commander?~~Eeeohohoh?~~Please?~~Knight Commander~Use Isabella as you please?~~"
The maid's soft, seductive moans, along with the sweet, sensual scent of ripe femininity, once again filled the Countess's boudoir with the blush of desire.
This beautiful maid with her soft, white silk stockings and plump buttocks was pressed against the desk by Asmodie's strong, tall, and perfectly sculpted body, which was repeatedly thrust into her like a stone cone attacking a city. With each violent and savage thrust, Asmodie repeatedly plowed the maid's soft, tender virgin buds into a shape that belonged only to him.
Two semi-solid, soft, and fragrant white silk-clad buttocks, like the finest milk and honey cushions, were being repeatedly struck by Asmodie's hard and solid waist, collapsing like milk and honey. Then, as Asmodie lifted his waist, they swayed and trembled again, returning to their soft, ripe peach shape with waves of creamy, honey-like ripples.
As for those two fragrant, soft, and creamy white breasts, which were as sweet and moist as honeyed peaches, Asmodie's two large hands held them freely as they shook and trembled. With each kneading motion, as if kneading a soft cake, drops of sweet, creamy white milk spilled onto the tea table in front of him and onto the fragrant black tea.
"Eeeeeee?~ Milk?~ Glug glug glug?~ Sorry~ It's all~ spilled outside the cup?~~ Eee umm umm?~~" Mei Ne Lin Ne Ne, are you free, Lin Zai Zai?
"Isabella? ~ Hmm... She's such a bad maid, isn't she? ~ Oh dear? ~ I'm so sorry? ~~"
"Since you're incompetent, you should know the punishment for being an incompetent maid?" Asmodeus casually enjoyed the gentle and beautiful maid in white silk beneath him, a playful smile playing on his lips.
"Eeee?~ Yes~ I'm sorry?~~ Guh-oh?~ Isabella?~ Will~ Ee-oh?~~ Obey the maid's punishment rules properly?~ Guh-oh-oh-oh?~ In the future?~ Continue to serve as?~ the knight commander's freely used?~~ female slave maid?~ Allow the knight commander to arbitrarily plant and violate?~~ Apologize?~~ Ee-oh-oh-oh?~"
Amidst the soft, sweet cries of spring, Asmodeus thrust his hips once more, and Isabella's plump, juicy flesh, under Asmodeus's relentless onslaught, reached a climax with her eyes rolling upwards, her two white-stockinged buttocks trembling wildly, her fragrant, soft, creamy vulva continuously spilling sweet spring nectar.
However, before Isabella could recover from her honeyed orgasm, Asmodie lifted one of her plump, smooth, white-stockinged legs, hooked her soft, slippery thigh, and forced her into an extremely shameful split like a female dog, pressing his monstrous, thick centaur lance against her nectar-filled, creamy clam.
Asmodeus played with her soft, white silk-stockinged foot, which was clad in a white, high-heeled, crystal maid style, and thrust his hips forward once more. Amidst the soft, shy moans of the beautiful maid in white silk, he began a new round of ravaging and assault.
