Chapter 56: Determination

-Third Point of View-

Saturday Morning,

It had been a week since Johan left Duke Castle for training to form his army. Several significant changes had occurred since then, especially in the city of Ironland.

The once quiet city was now bustling with activity. Many people had started applying for jobs provided by the town hall, covering various fields, most of which involved female workers, such as weaving. Takeshi and his team of craftsmen had made numerous looms based on Johan's recommendation, with the blueprints drawn up by the blue-eyed teenager himself. These new looms allowed for more efficient and higher quality fabric production.

Moreover, construction work in the city had made rapid progress. Buildings in the city, especially government buildings, were being converted from wood to cement. This process made the city look more modern and durable. The townspeople seemed enthusiastic about these changes, although some missed the old atmosphere.
