should know that months ago after Henry signed the contract, he and Landon discussed how to put an end to many practices In Deiferus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Landon also gave Henry time to discuss these issues amongst his aides as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was their empire, and Landon didn’t want to make all the changes himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nonetheless, he educated them on the consequences of many practices, which left them stunned and fearful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And today, he wanted to discuss the last few things on his agenda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Henry’s aides, Trenton and Mike, were with them, as well as Lieutenant Vlad, Captain Glindor, Captain Amelia, and warrant officer Corwin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a formal meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in matters like this, they needed someone to take down the meeting minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Corwin was chosen for the job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over time, with Landon’s regular visits to Henry, he and his men had gotten very much used to taking meeting etiquette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they had to say; it made everything a whole lot better and smoother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earlier on whenever Landon warped over, Henry’s men had to learn about creating agendas, taking minutes and whatnot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, several months later, they got a handle on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So when Landon’s team passed the doc.u.ments around, they first wrote their names and signed to confirm their attendance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From there, they picked up the well-typed doc.u.ment before them calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, water bottles were also shared around the table too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Henry officially began the meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, it was his empire and his region, so he had to take centre stage, while Landon would be second behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady and gentlemen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For as long as we Deifers can remember, we have indulged in some traditional practices created by our forefathers with the intention of war only.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These practices have long since made our people uncomfortable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And some are also unhealthy as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That said, we must eradicate the bad practices from our glorious empire permanently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, I’ll hand over the floor to his majesty Landon, who will further explain the issues at hand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Prince Henry,\" Landon said while nodding before finally focusing his attention on everyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like the prince has said, we will work hard to reevaluate and stop some of the practices that seem to hinder the growth and rose of the empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So without wasting any more time, everyone should please turn to page 2.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll start from there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flip Flip Flip Flip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sounds of pages turning, echoed across the tranquil room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Landon looked at them and smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lady and Gentlemen, our first problem arises with birth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s ears were perked up as they listened attentively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why childbirth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Landon, the problem was the birth process itself but traditions that followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Where to begin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike the other empires, Deiferus had a bizarre and terrifying way of raising children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right from birth, the children’s fates were decided by the Sacramentos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were found in every town and city, and those in villages also had to report to the closets towns and cities to meet them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sacramentos were a group of people that decided if a child would live or die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So every pregnant lady had to inform any Sacramento around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was illegal to give birth without the presence of a Sacramento.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even royalty wasn’t exempt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Deiferans, from the day they were born to the day they died, their lives were under constant examination.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were seen as high-level products that would boost the empire to the next level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was believed that the only reason they were alive was to make their empire great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, starting from the root of the problem here, from the moment the child popped out of the woman’s belly, the Sacramento would do one of two things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the child were a girl, the child would be given to his mother to raise as normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But, the mother had to take the female child to the Council of Fertility to examine whether this child would be able to bear children in future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They believed that the fatter the child’s thighs, the more children the child would have in future, as it already showed signs of having excellent childbearing h.i.p.s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they said, everyone was born to make the empire great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So even women had their own expectations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, if the child was a boy, then things got a lot more complicated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, they would be taken by a Sacramento to the nearest Injang, which was a council with several leading elders that were very skilled in war or other positions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From there, the child would be inspected like goods in a store\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the child was disabled, mentally ill (by not crying) or seemed d.i.c.k, then he was no use to the empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A real man came out of his mother’s w.o.m.b strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why would they want such weaklings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And so when a newborn was deemed as useless, what do they do to it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They would be abandoned in the wilderness to survive and prove themselves, even though they were just a few hours old.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So many-a-times, over 70% of these babies got eaten by wild beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the rest were sometimes picked up by peasants that would take them, intending to use them as cleaners to clean their houses and do their work for them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew that babies in the wilderness were wastes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why not pick it up and get free labour?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, some somehow manage to survive but were taken in by wolves or other animals, which was strange but true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At times, slave traders will also collect these babies after they were thrown in the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For them, they got these slaves free of charge without paying for anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why not?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a good investment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Again, the female children who were rejected by the council of Fertility also got thrown into the wilderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All in all, the councils decided the fates of the children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And for this matter, Landon was utterly speechless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they didn’t want the babies, why not send them to Baymard?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do these people know how dangerous the wilderness is?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just the crazy creatures in this world were enough to deal with a handful of a.d.u.l.ts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why send a poor innocent, defenceless child there?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t this too cruel?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Deiferus was really something else.\u003C\u002Fp>",1083,"2026-06-03T07:55:33.101Z","2026-06-03T07:55:40.090Z",1,"novelbin.me","379b17c2216023bb700cce471343d7f83f5f7e07abd66da2490a4ae01e43aa8a","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-864","i-m-the-king-of-technology-chapter-862",1977,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-m-the-king-of-technology-cover.jpg"]
