The idea?
The dragon and the human then exchanged a smile.
Several days later.
At notice boards throughout Niro City.
Several soldiers arrived and put up new notices.
Whenever this happened.
A large crowd would gather around.
The soldiers had barely put up the notice.
When a crowd eagerly began reading it.
"Notice-to my beloved subjects.
I am Niro City's Guardian Dragon, the Lord's Right Hand, Xiluo Utrasis!
In light of the recent war.
For the safety of our subjects, I built a defensive wall three kilometers beyond the outer city, with the aim of keeping better watch for enemies and preparing our defenses.
But over these past few days.
I have come to feel deeply that this alone is far from enough!
Even though we have powerful allies.
Marquis Dorian, Count Doges, and Marquis Merano.
And even powerful high-ranking nobles of the Hai Jialan Empire.
We must still be strong ourselves.
Our own strength is what matters most!
The strength we need is not merely the strength of our soldiers.
Every subject must possess a measure of strength as well.
Only then can we do everything possible to protect all of Niro City and our homeland in any wars that may arise in the future.
Protecting our homeland is not merely the responsibility of our soldiers, but the responsibility of us all!
But clearly, it is impossible to give every subject strength now.
Because many people are already older, with families and children of their own.
They need to work hard for their families and children!
But those children are different!
Being young, they are perfectly capable of acquiring this strength!
Of course, subjects who still have free time can do so as well!
After exchanges and discussions with numerous talented individuals.
We plan to establish academies in Niro
