Time quickly passed by and it's already 4 months since Lori become the king of the Silverwing Kingdom. All these past four months, Lori was focusing on upgrading his own strength. He trains with Danzo, Katakuri, and Unohana every day to the point that his whole body was aching.
After receiving all his rewards from the system, not only him. But all his summon's strength was upgraded. They rank up in their strength increasing the power of the kingdom. With the Ultimate Upgrade that increases the strength of everyone. It also enables him to summon riflemen and knights from the barracks.
Under the guidance of Danzo, Lori trains in different types of jutsus. With the Senju blood running in his vein and with the help of the system. His training was very good and stable.
When Lori exchange the True Jade Stone that Danzo brought back to him. The system gave him a devil fruit ability, it was the Ito Ito no Mi devil fruit of Donquixote Doflamingo. With Katakuri as his instructor, he manages to awaken his devil fruit ability quite easily. Aside from that, he also learns about all three types of haki. The conqueror's haki was already given to him by the system and he just only needs someone so that he could properly use it.
As for using his zanpakuto and the techniques of a shinigami. Lori has Unohana to help him. As one of the oldest captains from the original Bleach. Unohana's knowledge and experience were vast.
For the progress of the kingdom, it is very fast. With the amount of wealth, he had taken when he attacked the territory of the Goldling Family. Lori manages to summon many soldiers from the barracks.
The military power of the kingdom was growing rapidly with the help of Swain and Date Masamune. The enlisting of the soldiers was going smoothly because many young men in the kingdom wanted to join the army.
Crocodile with the Baroque Works also started to expand. They also have some cooperation with the Roots that Danzo has established.
When Danzo returned from his mission in the Oldwall City. He actually came back with three children with him. He said he would train them and they will become the future experts of the organization. Of course, he also has some adults in his organization. With the help of the seal, he can make sure that not an information about the Roots will leak out.
At this moment of time, the kingdoms under the Ekhiwed Empire were waging wars against each other. Even the wars between the Brightmoon Kingdom and the Blacksummit Kingdom began to intensify. Many low-level kingdoms that joined the war between the two medium-level kingdoms were destroyed by the cruel war.
The two medium-level kingdoms even sent a messenger to the Silverwing Kingdom to join their sides. However, Lori neither accepted it nor refuse it. He just ignores them and decided to watch their war.
This is their war, why should he join them? If he wanted war, then he will declare it himself. He doesn't want his kingdom to fight for another's interests.
Because of his attitude, the messenger of both kingdoms becomes angry at him. But they knew that they could only get angry and do nothing about it. Because they are so busy fighting against each other. When would they have the time to fight against a low-level kingdom.
So Lori and the Silverwing Kingdom were ignored by the two medium-level kingdoms.
However, even if the two kingdoms don't want to fight against him. Lori wanted to fight against them, and his first target was the nearest kingdom to his territory, the Molon Kingdom.
This past month with the fail breakthrough of Scias Murik of the Molon Kingdom. They finally surrender themselves and allied to the Blacksummit Kingdom. And with Danzo killing two rank A experts of their kingdom. They were greatly weakened and there are even some riots in the kingdom.
For Lori as a king, this is simply the right moment to strike. A wounded kingdom with a weakened state is too much of an attraction for a vulture like him.
Now that Swain is already promoted and become a rank S powerhouse. They can easily conquer the Molon Kingdom.
The soldiers were already preparing to move. The intelligence information gathered by the Baroque Works and Root was combined. The Silverwing Kingdom was basically eyeing the Molon Kingdom like a naked woman. Their every move was reported and not a single detail was let out.
"Father!" a crisp voice sounded in the throne room followed by a soft sound of shoes hitting the floor.
Lori watched as the beautiful little girl runs towards him with a bright smile in her cute and lovely face. The little princess was wearing a beautiful green dress making her look very lovely.
"What is it?" he picked up the little girl and put her in his lap while combing her hair with his fingers.
"Father said that he would take Mia in the forest today. I'm here to remind father about it" the little girl said lovingly with her bright eyes staring at Lori with a small pout.
"Little princess!" a voice sounded and a petite young lady appeared. Her hair was long and she was wearing such a 'unique' armor that protects almost nothing.
Ushiwakamaru appeared and she looks exhausted. She was the servant that Lori (author) summoned. When she saw the little girl with Lori, she said, "Master"
Mia who was sitting in Lori's lap comfortably giggled and softly said, "Father Uchiwakamaru is so slow. She can't catch Mia even though she is already big"
Uchiwakamaru who was smiling suddenly twitch her lips. She thought, how can she catch the little girl who was so weird that can suddenly sink underground. There is simply no way to catch this little girl who was spoiled to the very core.
Everyone in the capital knew this adopted child of the king. She was a tyrant in the capital that does whatever she wanted. Of course, all of this couldn't be blamed on Lori alone as he was busy in the matters of the kingdom. The one responsible for this was Lori's parents, Lucas and Selena. Because they don't have anything to do in the palace. The two focused their attention on raising the little girl, even Rose was feeling jealous because she was ignored.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared beside Lori and whispered something to his ears. A smile appeared on his face and the shadow disappeared. He turns to Mia and said, "Alright father will take you around. Father never breaks his promise especially to my little princess"
"He he he, I know that father is so good to Mia," the little girl said and jump down from Lori.
The three then disappeared from the throne room.

Inside the forest near the capital of the Silverwing Kingdom. Two figures were running away. Their faces were pale white and the expressions in their face are horrible. From the clothes, they are wearing it looks like they came from a prestigious family.
Following behind them was a pack of wild wolves. The strength of these wolves was not that great so dealing with them one versus one isn't that hard. The problem is that they rarely go and hunt alone. And they rely on its numbers to kill prey.
"Young lady you quickly run forward and don't look back. These vicious wolves are fast and we can't outrun them in our current condition. As a warrior of the Vasselon Family, it is my task to protect you" a woman knight declared. Her luxurious armor was covered in dents and blood. Blood was dripping down on the corner of her pale lips and her body was slightly shivering.
The young lady heard the words of her knight and said, "No, no, no! Sister Natasha, we can survive together. Don't leave me alone, you're the only one remaining as my family" the young lady said with trembling voice. Tears started to fall down from her crystal clear eyes as she prayed, "Please, someone help us"
Wut the heck! Another cliche encounter!
