Building an Empire, Starting as a Lord in Another World

A gentle, gorgeous beauty of a bottom x a competitive, possessive tree-demon top

Lance was an ordinary person who transmigrated to a world without magic or supernatural abilities, where frail humans could only survive in the cracks between more powerful races. He also became a newly appointed count with little real authority, thrust into the role before he was ready.

His territory bordered the beastfolk's lands, and was in danger of being swallowed up at any moment, leaving its people as slaves and livestock.

Just as he was preparing to flee, he made an unexpected discovery:

The character from the game he'd been playing before he transmigrated had come along with him! What's more, every one of his unarmed, oppressed subjects had an exceptionally high aptitude for magic!

Lance, the all-affinity Archmage: "Young man, would you like to learn magic? The kind where a single forbidden spell can blow up an entire country?"

The day his mighty magical army was formed, the world trembled!

And in the end, Lance somehow turned his tiny territory into the most powerful nation in the other world, so that no other race dared bully humanity again!

Ino was a tree, standing quietly in the Tormi Forest for over a thousand years, until one day a human woke him from his slumber.

And at first sight, he was lost.

Later, Ino became the strongest guardian at Lance's side, watching over him day and night, night after night... in an endless embrace.
