[Congratulations, City Lord! Your Angel City has been upgraded to an Intermediate Capital City. Its territory has expanded to 2,000 km and the sphere of influence has increased to 5,000 km!]

[The Defense of the Castle Heart has increased tenfold!]

[Your Angel City's influence and reputation on the Endless Continent has increased dramatically!]

…

This was the announcement that appeared after Angel City's upgrade. Although the information displayed there was quite simple, it was enough to shake the world. Where most Castle Lords only had towns and very few top-level Castle Lords had primary cities, Haru had an Intermediate Capital City!

Such a gap was beyond words. However Haru did not stop because inside his warehouse, there were still mountains of supplies that were enough to raise his territory to an Advanced Capital City.

"Upgrading to an Advanced Capital requires one billion units of Wood, 800 million units of Stone, and 500 million units of Refined Iron. Any top-level Castle Lords would not have such a huge amount of resources but it's not a big deal for me!"

Haru glanced at the warehouse:

[Food - 4 Billion+ Units

Wood - 5.7 Billion+ Units

Stone - 3.5 Billion+ Units

Refined Iron - 2 Billion+ Units]

Just upgrading to an intermediate capital city did not seem to have reduced his material reserves at all because he was so rich!

"Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to get an imperial capital! The reason is simple: upgrading to an Advanced Capital requires ten times as much material as before. If I want to upgrade to an Imperial Capital, it might be ten times again, perhaps even more."

"However, the Advanced Capital is enough! If I upgrade it to an imperial capital, it might become difficult to resist the pressure from the local empires!"

After all, there was no empire outside of the central region of the Endless Continent. If Haru establishes an Empire, what would the local empires in the central region think? Those empires would probably not hesitate to send an army of Gods to knock at his Imperial Capital.

A kingdom was different because outside the central region there were many kingdom-level forces everywhere. It was difficult for them to threaten the dominance of those empires over the Endless Continent. Without this threat, they would naturally ignore it.

"I have no reason to think about building an empire now! What I want to do is to upgrade an Advanced Capital City, to establish my Kingdom!" Haru then opened the information prompt again and chose to level up his territory again.

A bright golden light appeared again and enclosed Angel City's direct territory, which has reached a terrifying 2,000 km in diameter. The direct territory referred to the area covered by the wall.

The whole Dark Forest was only five or six thousand kilometers wide. That said, his direct territory was now the equivalent of occupying a third of the Dark Forest. Haru was stunned because he suddenly thought of a problem. As his immediate territory expanded outward, everything around it, including ancient trees, lakes, mountains, and so on, disappeared into thin air and became flat ground paved with large bluestone floors.

Doesn't that mean the wild monsters and local forces will also disappear? Haru quickly asked this question and the 'Game Master' answered.

[Ancient trees, jungles, lakes, mountains, wild monsters, native powers, tribes, and so on, will be randomly transmitted to other parts of the world as the Castle Lord upgrades the territory.]

Looking at the reply, the corners of Haru's mouth twitched. He felt like he lost a lot of money! If he cleared out all those large and small native forces of the Dark Forest before upgrading the territory, he thought he could've inevitably gotten numerous supplies. He indirectly suffered a great loss.

"What a loss!" Haru was quite distressed. Originally, those things in the Dark Forest belonged to him. His Angel City was still being upgraded. He was afraid that once this upgrade was completed, the whole Dark Forest might disappear and become his direct territory.

It was not impossible. After all, his current direct territory was 2,000 kilometers in diameter. Once promoted to an Advanced Capital, it might reach five thousand kilometers. The narrowest part of the Dark Forest was not even five thousand kilometers. Soon, there would be no more Dark Forest. There would only be his Kingdom!

"Then again, all of the Dark Forest wouldn't get covered because of the location of my city. It is in the southwestern region and not the center. The expansion would be even in all directions. In other words, after the upgrade, my Capital city will probably occupy about half of the Dark Forest!"

Haru remembered what Joanna had said. The Dark Forest was bordered by the Death Swamp to the north, the Andes Highlands to the south, the Endless Prarie to the west and the vast wilderness to the east.
