âAre you talking about the Forest of Beasts?â
Zvalterâs expression reflected his surprise.
The Forest of Beasts wasnât the kind of place one could easily clear out. Beyond the dangerous monsters inhabiting it, the sheer size of the forest was daunting.n/oÌ/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It stretched across the northern plains, its vastness rivaling that of a small kingdom.
Ghislain nodded.
âYes, itâll take a long time, but I plan to completely clear it out.â
Ghislain kept his suspicions hidden and continued speaking casually.
âAlthough the war has ended, we canât disband the military immediately. A sudden wave of unemployment would create problems. If we involve the soldiers in development and construction projects, itâll work out.â
âHmm, that does make sense,â Zvalter agreed.
Though the kingdom was stabilizing quickly, it hadnât yet returned to its pre-war state.
Creating jobs was crucial, especially with the influx of discharged soldiers. A sudden surge in unemployment wouldnât do anyone any good.
Zvalter nodded in agreement. Developing the Forest of Beasts could also yield a wealth of resources.
With food production currently exceeding expectations, maintaining the military for a while longer wouldnât strain the kingdomâs economy.
