Back in the study, Roland felt a bit bored. He thought of Master Anthony's introduction of level divisions just now and decided to summon his Soul Card to take another look.

As soon as he summoned the Soul Card, he fell into deep thought.

The base of the card had already turned a pale gold, yet he was still able to grow quickly. It seemed there was a better level above gold.

Upon closer inspection, he noticed a badge in the area representing inherited achievements.

A fiery red Magic Crystal Ball badge.

Could it be Lisa?

It's not surprising for Lisa to learn magic from Anthony; after all, she also wanted to become stronger.

They discussed the details of the teaching in private, and the result was affirmative.

Roland just couldn't figure out how the inheritance badge was counted under his name.

He wasn't being modest; this time, he truly did not do even the smallest work, merely introducing Lisa to Anthony.

That Anthony was willing to take on a disciple was due to his appreciation of Lisa's talent; what did it have to do with him...

It really did have something to do with him.

Without his approval, the matter couldn't have happened.

He roughly understood the trait of the inheritor.

As long as you help with the inheritance of civilization and skills and have connections with Transcendents or other system powerhouses, there's a chance to earn a badge.

He now had two inheritance badges in total.

He racked his brains thinking if there were any other strong figures he could cozy up to.

After thinking it over, the more reliable ones seemed to be Alina, Norton, Munina, and Christine.

There were so many potential clients.

Roland felt pretty good.

The threat of survival was objective, and he had to seek ways to become stronger.

The initial combat power of an inheritor was not strong, but the advantage lay in a high ceiling and significant growth space.

He silently complained, this wasn't inheriting; it was clearly freeloading.

He had to think of a way to help the strong figures around him find inheritances.

Roland opened the library, searching patiently.

Unfortunately, the good thing about getting stronger while lying down wasn't that easy; he couldn't find any suitable tomes for the time being.

The Elf Race does not divine; they predict the future with prayer and prophecy.

In Roland's view, the prophets of the Elf Race were the standard guise of charlatans.

Helping companions find inheritances could wait; someone was coming.

Roland's lips slightly curved up, perceiving that his perception of footsteps' distances had increased again.

As expected of an inheritor, each badge obtained brought a direct improvement.

If he could collect more badges and help more people, maybe he could unlock the level above gold.

If only he had a bit more time.

A knocking sound came at the door.

The slightly hurried knocks were filled with joy, without doubt, it was Lisa.

Roland opened the room door, smiling as he said, "Congratulations, sister."

Lisa was surprised, her small mouth open, "Eh, you knew?"

"Your joy is written all over your face."

Lisa shyly stuck out her tongue and raised her left hand, showing a fiery red ring.

"Look, this is the Phoenix Blood Ring, it's awesome."

Roland nodded with a smile, "After all, it's Master Anthony; he makes extraordinary things."

"Not only that, the teacher also agreed to accompany us to White Mountain."

"That's wonderful." Roland's lips curled in a smile, sharing in Lisa's joy.

Originally, it was expected that Sura would be part of the long-range firepower group; unexpectedly, with the change, Sura's teacher was personally coming.

The feeling was akin to receiving a self-propelled artillery while fetching a mortar, with automatic reloading even.

Roland quickly found Sif; originally he planned to bring Sif along, but with Master Anthony there, it wasn't necessary.

Letting Sif stay and handle political affairs would be good too.

After all, she is the Empress; it would be unwise for her to go into battle.

Upon seeing Roland, Sif, who was reviewing documents, casually put down her quill, her lips full of a smile.

"Ready? Then let's set off."

Roland: "..."

"What's wrong?" Sif asked, surprised.

"The plan has changed; Sura is replaced by Master Anthony now."

Upon hearing that strong support was joining, Sif was delighted too, "That's great, let's set off now!"

Seeing Roland's slight hesitation, Sif suspiciously asked, "You're not going to tell me not to go, are you?"

"What nonsense are you thinking? You're the main assault, not going isn't an option."

The moment he saw Sif's eyes, he knew he couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he simply changed his mind.

Being adaptable is important, don't be too rigid.

Sif smiled broadly, pointing at the nearby armor stand, "Help me change armor!"

Although it was only the Governor's Territory of the Three Provinces, administratively the structure was demoted by one level from the Cabinet configuration, and the various complex affairs were not necessarily less than those of the Empire.

After all, the Empire's order was stable, and many things did not require dealing. The construction of the Three Provinces had just begun, with plenty to do.

With Roland, the laid-back officer there, she was quite busy these days.

Pressure pushes one forward, and also easily makes one go bald.

Last night Sif felt distressed for half a day after seeing a few strands on her pillow.

Since Roland could be the laid-back officer, she could learn.

These days she started researching and analyzing the governance she must control, separating the less important for Governor's Mansion officials to handle.

Officials directly responsible to her decreased from over thirty people to fifteen.

According to Roland, no more than twenty-five people should be directly led by officials at each level.

For her, fifteen people were her limit.

Add more once she gets familiar with political affairs.

Although the Governor's Mansion could configure officials like the Cabinet, some officials couldn't be configured.

For instance, the Heraldry Institute, foreign affairs department, and the Imperial Guard.

If these were established, it would truly be "What reason does Your Majesty have for rebellion" farce.

Sif positioned herself appropriately.

The Three Overseas Provinces were a training ground Roland had chosen for her, not for establishing a second government outside.

Upon returning to the Imperial Capital, the Cabinet Minister could only process a batch, retire a batch, and keep a batch.

Total dismissal would lead the Empire into chaos.
