The golden dragon Rex quietly retreated and came to the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Meow~"

A flower cat passed in front of it, followed by a snow-white white cat. The moment he saw the white cat, the pupils of the golden dragon Rex suddenly contracted.

Why is He here......

The white cat came to it with graceful steps, and made a beautiful female voice like a clear spring: "Golden Dragon, why are you here?" ”

The golden dragon Rex bowed his head slightly, showing respect: "I heard that evil is happening here...... But it looks like someone wants to take advantage of me. ”

On the contrary, Liberty City has taken in too many refugees who are not theirs...... Where do these people come from? Golden Dragon Rex will investigate clearly.

"Your enemy is in the north." The noble and elegant white cat prompted.

The golden dragon Rex leaned over: "May I ask what happened in the depths of the sky?" And our Father......"

"They will return one after another......"

"Thank you—"

"Meow~"

At this time, the flower cat that found that his companion did not come with him came back and rubbed the white cat.

"Lily says you should go and meet its owner." The white cat, who could no longer maintain his nobility, said helplessly.

"The brunette boy? Forget it, all the people in power will use me when they know that I am the Golden Dragon Rex, such as this ......"

As the words fell, the golden dragon Rex saw the lady's cat eyes flickering with disdain in the form of a cat.

Did you say something wrong?

"What can I do for you, ma'am......" Golden Dragon Rex continued to humble himself.

"Don't tell anyone."

"I'll keep it a secret for you."

When it came to things that had nothing to do with treasure, even the Templars couldn't match the credibility of the Golden Dragon.

The golden dragon Rex left Liberty City step by step, and unlike when he came, no one noticed it anymore, even if it turned into a golden dragon that shimmered in the sun, and the skeleton rats were still wandering in the wheat field.

"The silly cat is staring at the sky in a daze again." In front of the window on the third floor of the City Lord's Mansion, a hand touched the head of the white cat.

The white cat jumped out with a fur, ignoring Annan's retention and deftly jumped onto the eaves. He sat down gracefully, looking at the golden dragon, which was no longer visible.

……

The Mad Dog Grand Duke sent another bunch of trouble - thousands of civilians rushed to Liberty City crying out.

"Does he want to drive the civilians of the entire principality here?"

Annan was not quite used to such a war.

If they were enemies, he could have coldly let magic muskets and cannons fire at will, but they were civilians, and the civilians who had been wounded by mistake were wailing, pleading, rotting......

Fortunately, they were already familiar with the road, and with the help of the three epic mages, they successfully received this group of civilians who were forced to leave their hometowns.

"We can't take in any more refugees." Olmedo warned Annan.

"Do you know why human beings are great?" Annan asked himself: "Because of our altruism." ”

Annan was stubborn, he knew that the current Liberty City had reached its limit...... Both water and food now need their own portals to alleviate them.

But on the plus side, as long as it withstands the constant gifts of the Mad Dog Grand Duke, Liberty City will become a city with a population of more than 100,000 after the war.

It doesn't matter how few of these people are professionals, the magic musket allows ordinary people to exert the power of professionals.

But then the area around Liberty City suddenly became much quieter.

It was the "Elven Mentor" who told Annan through the leaves of the World Tree that the passing golden dragon Rex had made a big fuss in the Overwatch.

"Is Rex a golden dragon?" At that time, Annan asked confusedly.

The Mad Dog Grand Duke no longer drove away civilians, but the spread of the massacre of civilians in Liberty City did not stop.

The nobles within the duchy who had been inclined to Giraldi were deceived by the disinformation and gradually turned to the mad dog archduke, and the surrounding countries, including the envoys of the Duchy of Keating, also blamed Annan for his atrocities, but the Tatooun Empire stood still.

Especially Srtoves. In the eyes of the locals, even the dung of Annan is golden, and there are elves dancing around. And the gold of the Mad Dog Grand Duke is cursed, and it is covered with demonic urine.

"We've got to figure something out." Giraldi stopped playing the cards and ran to the city lord's mansion to cry.

If the mad dog archduke continues to slander him, he will really become the official heir.

"It's time." Evelyn, who came along, stared at Annan with clear eyes.

"It's time...... Annan echoed.

"Is it time......?" Only Giraldi was confused.

It didn't take long for the civilians living in the newspaper office to find that their "home" was gone.

Guests who often go to the tavern find that Ruth is gone.

Ingrid found that Annan was missing—but she wasn't surprised at all, knocking on Olmedo's office with the government in her hand.

"Vice City Lord, Lord Annan is ready to activate the magic newspaper."

"I see. Five towns, six ports...... Should we be able to distribute it directly in eleven towns? ”

"Twelve, actually, and West is in the Duchy of Keating." Ingrid handed out government affairs, "This is the department that Annan has come up with in mind. ”

Olmedo picked up the top paper.

"Propaganda Department?"

……

Castle Lord's Mansion Loft.

Annan, Evelyn, and Tina are plotting together.

"In the first issue of "Voice of Freedom", I want to focus on the slander and brutality of the mad dog Grand Duke, do you have any ideas?"

"I've got this ready!" Evelyn excitedly took the Philosopher's Stone from her long dress.

Annan screened in the attic: a top-down magical image of the Mad Dog Grand Duke's mages and knights maneuvering and driving crying civilians into battle.

"When?"

"When that mad dog smeared us, I gave a baby dragon 5 copper coins to take a picture of."

"Well done!"

I don't know if Annan is praising the magic image itself or if Evelyn did it with 5 copper coins.

"Tina, it doesn't look like you need to make false evidence."

"It doesn't matter." Tina shrugged.

"Now that we have physical evidence, we need witnesses...... Giraldi is the perfect fit. ”

"Also, are our racial jokes going to continue?"

"Of course! This is our soul! ”

……

Annan, who had finished the secret conversation, returned to the living room. Itilia and Olmedo are waiting for him.

"Ingrid told us you're going to get ready to launch a magical newspaper?" Editia asked

"Well, it's time to show the Middle-earthers how powerful the propaganda machine can be."

"So you've created a new propaganda department...... What about ministers? ”

"How are Evelyn and Tina?" Annan looked at Olmedo.

"They are not fit to be officials."

"I think so too......" Annan continued to look at Olmedo without blinking.

"Okay...... I'll be working for the time being, what are you going to call the magical newspaper, or the Liberty City News? ”

"How's 'Voices of Freedom'?"
