Lord: Starting Out as a Northern Frontier Pioneer!

[Western fantasy + lords + war for supremacy + farming + industry] Vilant Hells only wanted to get by in his family’s army, but his good-for-nothing older brothers tried to stage a coup like a certain Emperor Taizong. Though it failed, it put Vilant on his guard. Fortunately, one day he awakens a Lord System, which not only grants him special buffs but also brings unexpected benefits to his domain. As an illegitimate son, Vilant was nowhere near inheriting the title of count. To put the System to use, he has to become a frontier knight. What can he do when his new domain has no people or money? No problem. Capture some goblins, castrate them, and enslave them. If they won’t obey, have the overseers make them get to work. As long as they do, they’ll get 500 free draws. What if the domain has no money? No problem. Isn’t that what the System is for? Improve his skills, invent some weapons, and sell them to the nobles who are fighting each other to the death. Just as Vilant develops his domain step by step, a major crisis strikes his family. His good-for-nothing older brother conspires with two counts and foreign troops to bring down their father, wiping out the family’s elite magical army. Called upon in their hour of need, Vilant takes up the Hells family banner and becomes the ninth-generation count. Vilant: “Those who rebel must die! Anyone who dares oppose me, I sentence you to death in the name of Count Hells and Governor of Harlan Province!” If you refuse to accept that, my guns and cannons are still plenty lethal!
