Chapter 659: Chapter 387: The Third Legend (4K)_2
That's reasonable.
Handling the affairs of one's territory is the very work of a Lord.
Since one's own troops often find it difficult to shoulder all responsibilities, and entrusting outsiders with tasks carries risks, naturally, a Lord must roll up their sleeves and get to work.
Isloa said, "The main work locations are three: City Lord's Mansion, Southern City Municipal Building, and Southern City New Development Zone. The other areas like the academies and alchemy factories, I've already temporarily handed over to others, so taking a day or two off won't matter."
"And at these three work locations, there are thirty-nine types of matters to deal with, including..."
"Mo Li has been with me for some time too, she'll assist you with the work."
She spoke without any pause until she had finished.
Then she looked towards Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan waved his hand, looking relaxed, "No problem, no problem at all."
After all, he was the Lord, not just a figurehead; he was clear—crystal clear—about the planning of the territory, its major affairs, and the main work of city hall.
If he had to substitute every day, he might indeed be overwhelmed by the workload.
But just for a day or two?
He could handle that with his hands tied.
He felt somewhat underestimated by Isloa.
"Then I'll be off."
"Go ahead, I'll cheer for you in spirit."
Mu Yuan could amplify his subordinates with the Lord's Power to assist Isloa, but there was no need.
She had ample preparation, and only by challenging the barrier with her pure, original strength could she attain the greatest improvement, to leap into the Legendary Earth Realm and become one of its strongest.
"Only in spirit, huh."
Isloa pouted, "Ah~ Thinking about all the endless work awaiting me after the breakthrough, suddenly, I can't muster any fighting spirit. What should I do?"
She seemed to be hinting: hurry, relieve me of some of this workload.
Mu Yuan tapped her head gently. Compared to Isloa's height, his reach to her head was quite convenient.
"Nonsense, would you let such a trivial matter affect your state?"
"And besides... your way of thinking is obviously flawed. After entering the Legendary Realm, the computational power of your brain increases, and you can also conjure more Starlight Avatars. Doesn't this mean that your work efficiency will greatly improve, and your working time will significantly reduce as well?"
Of course, this also meant she could take on more responsibilities.
Isloa certainly thought HER Lord was the one talking nonsense, but she couldn't think of a rebuttal right away.
Forget it, better to focus on breaking through to the Legendary Realm.
If she continued to argue with her Lord, her state of mind might truly be affected.
Isloa looked towards the door.
At the door, a petite, pink-haired girl walked in. The girl had delicate features but was expressionless, almost like a doll.
She walked straight up to Isloa and extended her hand.
Their palms touched, Isloa's hand rising to meet hers.
The next moment, the pink-haired girl turned into a stream of starlight and merged into Isloa.
Then came the second, the third, the fourth... identical figures.
A total of thirteen Starlight Avatars returned to her, one after another.
At this moment, Isloa's condition also peaked.
She stepped out of the City Lord's Mansion and walked through the golden archway not far from the mansion, entering the Dragon Mound Fertile Land Secret Realm.
Within the Secret Realm was an Ice Heart Lotus Platform.
This was the venue prepared for her Legendary breakthrough.
Isloa was well aware of the breakthrough techniques and the preparations required.
With Duo Lai and Dead Bone having gone before her, Tianyuan Territory had already acquired considerable breakthrough experience.
This experience might not be applicable to most individuals aiming for the Legendary breakthrough, but it was absolutely suitable for an invincible powerhouse like Isloa.
Two hours later.
"The breakthrough, has begun," Mu Yuan murmured.
He saw the invisible magnificent light surge into the heavens, and the elements of heaven and earth began to stir. Read exclusive adventures at m_v-l'-NovelBin.net
He still came to the outside of the Secret Realm's lotus platform to cheer for Isloa.
As for office work in the City Lord's Mansion? He left several Starlight Avatars there.
After all, he was a powerful being capable of utilizing 80% of Isloa's abilities, handling official duties with an avatar was a basic skill.
Substituting for others? That was definitely an easy task.
...
One day later.
Mu Yuan stared blankly, gazing at the piles of documents stacked high on either side of the desk.
In his ears, it was as if countless demonic whispers echoed.
"Lord, please review this batch of reports..."
"Lord, there are three more meetings scheduled for this afternoon..."
"Lord, the hospital has sent in a new order request..."
Ding! You have a new task at work~
"Lord, this batch of documents can be deferred," Mo Li said.
Mu Yuan waved his hand, "No worries, they are just a bunch of trivial matters."
How could HE, Lord Shepherd, not handle them?
He indeed had nearly completed the work that needed to be done, at least some 70%, 80% of it.
But he was exhaustingly tired.
Back in the early days of Tianyuan Territory, he often worked in the office. At that time, the territory wasn't big, and there weren't many people, so managing affairs wasn't very difficult.
Now, Tianyuan Territory had a population of over fifty thousand.
The population and military numbers exceeded a hundred thousand.
And there weren't enough clerks in city hall, most of the time, it was Isloa who swept through the work with lightning speed.
These tasks weren't exactly difficult.
Most were just minor matters.
But they were numerous, extremely numerous.
And his usual responsibilities only involved attending important occasions, stamping the most important documents, and planning the direction of the territory's development.
Only these.
It wasn't until he personally dealt with the detailed work that Lord Shepherd understood how many procedures were needed for a Lord's directive to come into effect, and how much work it involved.
No wonder Isloa always complained about being short-staffed.
Speaking of which, her lack of hair loss was probably thanks to her training achievements.
