Din, Din, Din, Din, Din, Din~

Landon's boots echoed across the vast hallway, with several people bowing deeply whenever he passed them by. "Good morning, your Majesty! Good Morning, your Majesty!"

This is not the first time several guards and staff are seeing his Majesty. However, no matter how many sparse times they saw him, they still felt a wave of revenge and awe hit their chests. 'Son/daughter… I just had eye contact with his Majesty Landon. Do I think I should now donate my eyeballs to Science?' (^π^)

Brian walked beside Landon with several papers resting on his handheld brown writing support piece. Adjusting his glasses, he continued– "Your majesty, today's Census meeting is vital to our future plans. We must completely understand just how much we have grown this year, and make plans for expansion for the next decades to come." Brain thinned his lips, feeling that this year's Census meeting was more important than the others in the past. For one, this was the first year that all Baymardian cities, villages, and towns, had tap water, electricity and heating. What Brian was also excited about, was his Majesty's new and improved vision for the future that he planned to show today. "Good Morning, your majesty!" "Welcome, Secretary Brain!" Over the years, many people had also come to realize the brilliance of those in Landon's team of secretaries. They could go with his Majesty into warzones, completely protecting themselves. They were strong, and could hold their own weights. What's more, they were quick-witted, clever and visionaries too. His Majesty now had an elite team of 55 secretaries.

You have to know that 5 of these secretaries were the top bosses, like Brian, and all controlled teams of 10. At times, one can see Brain and his team out on projects assigned by his Majesty Landon. These secretaries represented Landon. So if Landon can't make a meeting, they'll be there. They were his face in the outside world, so when many saw anyone of these top 5 bosses or the most noticeable and famous secretaries among the bunch, they knew they were here under His Majesty's instructions.

.

The hall was an eye-catching one, despite its moderate size. Walking into the room, several people sat with arms crossed, some with elbows on the table and others leaning back in conversation. Behind them were their secretaries, who sat behind, their statutes peeking out between the spaces that separated one Head chair from another. The massive round table could seat 15 people. Minister Dortomi sighed with relish when seeing the orderliness in the scene. It made his eyes moistened when seeing how far along they have come. Years back, having a meeting simply meant sitting in one place either too scared to void your thoughts lest you get beheaded, or too bold that you start arguing from dusk till dawn just to bully the weak.

Although Dortomi used to be a farmer in the past, even farmers would hold meetings behind heaps of hay with their pitchforks in heated arguments. Why, in this dangerous world, it would do a man no good to be farming near the woods and not have anything to use for defense. Most of the time, they stood no chance against nature, but even a single grain of rice can tip the scale, turning the odds in their favor. Dortomi has gone through such farmer meetings, and there was never any true orderliness to them. Even outsiders who participate in any UN meetings, all agreed that Baymard's 'meeting' methods were well-thought, time-saving and efficient. Everyone had folders with the meeting agenda and other vital info. There was a small bottle of water and pencils too. Ding!~

The sharp brisk sound immediately silenced the room. And soon, the meeting began..

Looking at the separate pie charts comparing Last year to this year's population in all cities, towns or villages, many already felt their hearts racing 10 times faster than normal. "WHAT? The population in Riverdale city has increased from 750k to 1M this year?! Amazing!" "Exactly! And we haven't even used 99.7% of Riverdale's Land!!" (*0*)

Landon nodded, already greatly impressed by the jump he saw. Sometimes, Landon had to snap himself in the head several times to remember that this world was 11 times larger in size compared to earth. So a regular continent's size, no matter how small it looked on the map, was freaking huge compared to Earth's standards. So yes, they hadn't even used a toothpick of Riverdale's cast lands surrounding the city. To be honest, this world's size was also one of the reasons why one could walk or trek on foot for days before reaching another settlement. Of course, most settlements built their fortresses at a closeness rate of 99% close to the main roads for easy access and travel. The majority of their lands were behind the opposite directions, or the side corners of the city's main Gates. Do you know how massive this world was? And before Baymard became its own empire, it belonged to Arcadina, the Largest Empire in this world that was the size of an entire continent alone. Understand that even if they reached a population of 600 Million one day in the distant future, every major city would still be able to accommodate their citizens. Know that in future when they enter the Galactic age, humans would be needed to go out into the vast space, perch on certain planets and make life prosper on them too. So don't think this world was overpopulated. If anything, according to the system's stats, it was far underpopulated in comparison to the land out there. Good!

The Galactic age seems closer to them than he anticipated after listening to the population boost from these year's charts. "Ladies… Gentlemen…" Landon swept his eyes across the space, causing many to sit upfront with fiery eyes. Here it comes, his Majesty's big vision they've been waiting for. Before everyone could react, he clicked the button in the remote, beginning the presentation he had long prepared. "Space Travel!"

2 simple words that made everyone's eyes twinkle like stars. And the more they listened, the more chaotic their minds became. What the hell goes on in His Majesty's mind all day? How can he always dream of such impossible missions? Fine, they heard word from the grape vines that his Majesty also thought of sending people to the Moon. But now, he not only wished to send them to the moon, but also have them go to far… far distant planets too? Boom!!! Several people stood up like trees, opening and closing their mouths in disbelief, pointing their trembling fingers at the Projection in disbelief. F***! Even the secretaries were blown away, feeling their heads so light they almost fainted from the unrealness of it all. Who am I? Where am I? What am I? 'Is his Majesty out of his Freaking mind? There is no way it's possible!' 'Oh my ancestors! I know his Majesty has always proven me wrong, but this… this is too hard to believe. Planetary travel? How can it be?' (∆0∆)

…

Everyone was scratching their heads so hard, trying to come to terms with Landon's vision, this little did they know that this was just the icing on the cake. When Landon showed them an enticing galactic world, they again felt their world view shatter!

"His Majesty so most of our cars will all be hovering?" "And what's that your majesty? But what's with this cool floating building?" Was that the royal Palace floating above, looking so gigantic like a city on its own? Damn! Despite not believing such a thing was possible, they had to admit that it was aesthetically pleasing. This… this… this… This was their future? (0w0)

Landon smirked, knowing that he was holding back 80% of his vision for the future. For now,let them relish in the prospects of the future. Tick-Tock, Tick-Tock. Time went by too fast in everyone's opinion. And before they knew it, they already spent an hour and a half on Landon's plans for the future. "And this, ladies and gentlemen, concluded the first half of today's meeting!" Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap!~

Amazing! Bravo! Despite not thinking it was possible, they still found it all impressive. And after a 15 minute break, they came back and began phase 2 of their meeting. In no time, another hour and a half passed by like lightning. Landon was just about to head on to another region for inspection when suddenly, he got a single stream of news that made his body tremble. [Your Majesty… we believe we found her!]

Yes, they found his Mother-in-law!
