Afterwards, Gafez introduced him to half a dozen people who were the mayor\'s previous assistants. They were the ones who helped the mayor with all the administrative work. 

One of them moved forward and pushed a polished wooden chest into Tristan\'s arms. 

"Lord Tristan, now that you are the new mayor, here we are handing to you now the town coffers."

Tristan went ahead and opened the chest with a key given by the assistant.

When he lifted its trunk, there were at least 100 gold coins and dozens of silver ones.

"I\'m rich!" He exclaimed silently to himself. 

With these coins, Tristan was finally able to find the silver linings in his current situation. The exasperation he previously felt towards this unwanted position had finally begun to fade.

It was then, Uriel suddenly decided to cut in.

"Sir… Ermm... actually That number normally wouldn\'t be enough to cover even one month of the town\'s expenditures" 

The fat elf\'s sentence quickly crushed Tristan few seconds of happiness.

The assistants also handed over boxes full of parchments, within which resided the town ledgers.

Tristan glanced at Uriel and he started to open one of the ledgers which showed him pages upon pages of numbers, which supposedly represented all the income and expenditures of the town.

Looking at the ledgers, Tristan knew that at the end of the day, managing the town would all depend on money. 

Fortunately, Tristan came prepared. This was exactly the main reason why Uriel was here. Although he did learn accounting and commerce in school back on earth, he had no knowledge on half of the items written in the ledgers.

Once again, Tristan was overwhelmed, and he started to feel another headache brewing. 

"Uriel, this will be your task. Please check if the numbers are right first and we can talk about it later."

Tristan concluded that the main thing he needed to accomplish was the improvement of the town\'s condition; their security, the citizens\' wellbeing, and finally, their pockets. 

For the situation to start exhibiting positive growth, Tristan needed to fix all the previously mentioned issues. He wanted to get this over with as soon as he could to complete the King\'s test for him. 

But at the end of the next three months, personally, his main goal was still to increase his strength.

That bastard king could always change the terms of the test for all he knew. Tristan believed that the only way for him to be completely free from that king was by strengthening himself.

He had the items he found in the ship to inspect, as well as new spells to learn. Ultimately, to really increase his strength Tristan needed more blood, a huge amount of it. 

As far as his goals as mayor and the town\'s problems went, he knew that it was best to tackle them one at a time. He didn\'t want to make any hasty decisions that would jeopardize his freedom. 

To make these all to work within such a short time.given, Tristan needs to start becoming an effective leader. Which meant the delegation of tasks. 

For the town administration, obviously, the task was being delegated to Uriel. His job was to audit the ledgers and to make sure all the information written is true. All the six assistants will be answering to the fat elf for this.

The town\'s thieving problem and general security, he had Seth accompany the head guard Gafez. His task will be to become his eyes and ears on the situation with the people and checking on the condition of the town guard.

To handle the orc issue, his first choice would definitely be Karra. She would go and communicate with the orcs and figure out the reason behind their attacks.

As for the barbarians, Astrid was the best candidate to gather intel. Determining their exact numbers and figuring out their intentions will be her task.

Chieng and Hererra would stay with him to explore those new space knights weapons and the fire spells trianing, Finally, Tristan was left with his lovely wife to check on the Mines.

"I am sure you will do an amazing job, Serene."

The female elf nodded silently, and with that, all the tasks were accounted for. 

Once more, he announced to his group, "Please return with whatever you have accomplished in three days."

With the delegation of tasks in order, his shoulders relaxed. His load seemed much lighter now. 

The day has been long and the night has come, it\'s time for them to get rest.

There was currently no residence prepared for the New mayor, so Tristan and the others were only able to stay in the rooms available in the town hall. 

A handful of assistants readily welcomed them, having prepared their rooms along with fresh, warm robes and towels. These things seemed like such luxuries, especially after what seemed like a long past few days of continuous movement.

The group then walked towards a long corridor where all the rooms were.

When Tristan arrived at his room, he suddenly thought about where Serene was going to be sleeping. After all It was a normal thing for a husband and wife to sleep together, wasn\'t it?

He glances towards Serene while standing in front of the first room

Tristan hadn\'t intended to make such a big deal out of it, but as soon as his eyes met hers, he seemed unable to ask. His pride would not let him. 

Serene also appeared to be thinking the same thing. For a moment, they were locked in an intense, unrelenting stare-down. 

Finally, Serene decided not to join and ask for another room, it was this time when suddenly, they heard footsteps walking in their direction. 

It was the purple haired beauty Hererra, making a beeline straight towards Tristan. She skipped past Serene as though she wasn\'t even there. She shamelessly approached him, placing an overly friendly hand on his chest, before asking him the same question as before with an air of false innocence. 

"The beds here are awfully cold, Sir Tristan. I can accompany you tonight if you want," she said with a flirtatious smile.

Tristan saw that the aloof look on Serene\'s face had abruptly changed. He held back a smirk; the situation had suddenly become very amusing for him. 

Tristan stepped closer to Hererra, touching her shoulder lightly. This gesture was not lost on Serene; she was watching him like a hawk, and at this moment her gaze noticeably sharpened. 

"It\'s really up to my wife now, Hererra," he said with a pleasant, good-natured smile. 

Tristan then turned back towards Serene, a grin still plastered on his face. 

"So, will you accompany me tonight, wife?"

This was the first time Hererra had heard anything about this matter. Her jaw dropped open in shock, and her mouth was agape. 

"Your… Wife?" The fire magician sputtered in complete disbelief. 

"Yup, newlyweds. Married just last week."

The fire magician seemed devastated for a second as her expression crumpled. Serene\'s cold stare shifted slightly and she was unconsciously glad at Tristan\'s words. However, after a moment, Herrera straightened her posture and piped up yet again. 

"I… I don\'t care, Sir Elf. You can make me your second, I don\'t mind."

Tristan\'s eyes bulged in surprise; this girl really was crazy. He was utterly speechless. He was beginning to wonder if he had unknowingly used his blood seal on her. 

Apparently, Serene was just as stunned; when Tristan looked in her direction, her complexion had paled considerably. She looked like she was about to throw up. Or strangle someone. 

It was an absolutely ridiculous request, and yet the purple haired magician stared at him with crossed arms and a serious expression, waiting for his answer. Her brow was furrowed expectantly. Really, what the hell was wrong with this girl?

Serene was irritated hearing Tristan take so long to respond. Realizing Tristan glanced towards her, it was translated by the elf princess as if Tristan was asking for permission.

"Go ahead! Do whatever you want!"

Tristan was annoyed. What does this elf want? He did choose her over the female magician. But why did she still have to be angry? Tristan was furious. He definitely couldn\'t accept such treatment from her. He also replied, anger in his voice. 

"Fine, Herrera, yes! I will be needing another hot steamy lesson tonight!" He said heatedly, still staring in the elf\'s direction. 

Serene only turned silent and walked out leaving the two.

Tristan really hated this, apparently, both girls were crazy

When he turned, he realized Herrera was already inside his room, laying on his bed, waiting with anticipation. 

Honestly, the moment he looked at her only made Tristan lose interest. He also knew that making a move at her now would only create more drama that he definitely did not need.

Tristan smiled at her with false pleasantness, and said, 

"I\'ll see you in the morning. Then" 

Tristan closed the door behind him and walked towards a different room. Leaving the girl gasp and confused.
