A screen materialized in front of him, shimmering with light.

[ Your third mission is for the palace. Summon security personnel and servants. Your limit is up to 5,000. Select how many guards and servants you want as per your wish but the limit is within 5,000. ]
Alberto's mind raced. The palace, vast and sprawling, demanded a small army of its own. He opened the shop, his fingers hovering over the menu.
"First, the security," he decided, his gaze settling on the "Guards" section.
[Host, mentioned here, you can choose your summon's gender, clothing, weapon, personality, etc, as you wish. If you don't select it, it will be selected randomly. ]
"Ah! It's a very good facility," Alberto murmured, his fingers dancing across the screen. This level of customization was invaluable.
He summoned two thousand security guards for his palace. Each one was a testament to his discerning eye, highly trained and skilled, chosen from the best the system offered. He envisioned them as an elite force, ready to defend the Palace of Versailles with unwavering loyalty. He chose sleek, Red Grenadier Guards
Uniform, a stylish yet imposing attire. To equip them, he selected Lee-Enfield Rifle , MP18 submachine gun, Lewis Gun, Vickers Machine Gun, and Webley Revolver ensuring they were armed with the best weaponry he had now.
Then he also bought 50 Ford Model Ts, Ten FT-17 tanks, Thirty Dodge Brothers Motor Trucks, Forty Indian Powerplus motorcycles and Ten Peugeot 156s.
He also buys a lot of logistics for their use like ammunition, oil, food etc. He buys more equipment for the guards based on recommendations from the system, leaving no stone unturned in his quest for top-notch security.
He then summoned the remaining 3,000, with many professions. There were skilled gardeners, ready to tend to the palace's breathtaking gardens, expert doctors to ensure the health and well-being of all, attentive footmen and maids, expert cooks to prepare culinary delights, experienced coachmen to navigate the palace grounds, dignified butlers, nurses with gentle hands, and many more. He sought to create a complete ecosystem within the palace, ensuring every need was met.
He had summoned 5,000 people, a diverse and skilled workforce, ready to bring life to his new home. From elite security guards to dedicated servants, who serve him, a testament to his ambition and his growing power.
"System," Alberto asked, a hint of uncertainty in his voice, "will they listen to me too?"
[Yes. They will also obey all your commands.]
A sense of relief washed over him. He had an army, a palace, and now, a workforce ready to serve him. He glanced around, and from the thousands, two figures emerged, making their way towards him.
An old man in his sixties, wearing a crisp Butler Uniform, radiated a calm authority. Beside him, a man in his mid-twenties, clad in an SS Uniform, stood tall and imposing.
Both came to a halt before him and bowed.
"Your Majesty," the old man said, his voice deep and resonant, "my name is Alfred. I am your Chief Butler. You can call me for any need. I will always be at your service."
"Your Majesty," the younger man declared, drawing his sword, "I am Colonel Carl Oberg, the leader of the Special Security Staff. I pledge my allegiance to you. I will always be committed to your protection. I will protect you until my last breath."
Alberto looked at Carl.
[Do you want to see his stats?]
A screen appears in front of Alberto
Occupation: Emperor's Special Security chief
He is strong. ... Can I even make him as strong as Circe?
[It is not impossible. You can turn him into a Hero if you want. But for this some conditions have to be fulfilled. Also you need a Hero card. You can earn this by completing missions.]
Alberto then turned his attention back to the two
"I hope you will do your duty properly," he said, his voice firming. "Sir Alfred, show me to my room."
"Your Majesty," the Butler said gently, "Please just call me Alfred."
"Ah...Hmm," Alberto said. He looked at Circe and his soldiers, who stood behind him, expectantly. "And also prepare rooms for them."
"Of course, Your Majesty. Please follow me."
They proceeded towards the palace.
As they enter the palace, they are greeted by holographic displays, Alfred guides Alberto through the labyrinthine corridors.
Inside, the corridor was lined with priceless works of art, ornate tapestries, and sparkling chandeliers that cast a warm glow over the rooms. The grand ballroom was a sight to behold, with its marble floors, soaring ceilings, and walls adorned with intricate frescoes depicting scenes of myth and legend.
In the center of the palace lies the Great Hall, a vast chamber that stretches into the heavens.
Alberto is very impressed by all this.
Alfred led him to a massive door, its surface crafted from solid gold, its intricate craftsmanship a testament to the palace's grandeur. "Your Majesty," he said, bowing slightly, "This is your room. Please let me know if you need anything."
"Hmm. Ok," Alberto replied, his mind still reeling from the magnificence of the palace.
| Alberto enters the room |
The room was a sight to behold. The walls were adorned with intricate tapestries. The ceiling was painted with elaborate frescoes. A grand chandelier hung from the center of the room, casting a warm glow over the luxurious furnishings.
At the corner of the chamber stood the bed, a massive four-poster draped in rich velvet curtains. The headboard was carved with intricate designs. The bedding was made of the finest silk, embroidered with gold thread.
On either side of the bed stood ornate nightstands, holding candles and books. A large fireplace crackled with warmth, casting a cozy glow over the room.
As the sun sets over the Palace of Versailles, casting a golden light over the chamber.
Alberto retired to his bed. The silk sheets were so soft, they felt like a cloud beneath him. He sighed contentedly, sinking into the plush mattress.
Then, a message appeared before him, a notification from the system
[Congratulations! You have completed your third mission. You have been awarded the Palace of Soviet.]
[Congratulations! You got 2000 Experience Points]
"Huh?" Alberto frowned, a puzzled expression on his face. He had heard about the Soviet Union in his previous life, a vast and powerful nation, but he had never heard of the Palace of Soviets. What was this?
[Do you want to set up the Palace of Soviets?]
Tell me something about the palace of the Soviets.
[The Palace of the Soviet is a political convention center. The Palace is 130-metre (430 ft) wide and 100-metre (330 ft) tall grand hall seating over 20,000 people. It's 416-metre (1,365 ft) tall.]
"AHHH!" Alberto exclaimed, his imagination running wild. "It sounds so majestic." He pictured a towering structure, a grand hall capable of holding thousands.
[Also, You can customize it if you want. You can change its name, size, etc.]
"Hmm," he mused, tapping his chin thoughtfully. He had the Palace of Versailles, opulent and elegant. Now, the Palace of Soviets, a grand hall meant for gathering vast numbers of people. His mind began to race, considering the possibilities.
The map appeared before him, a holographic representation of his domain. He could see his Versailles Palace, its grounds stretching out before him, a testament to his recent success. But beyond the palace grounds, the landscape was a vast expanse of trees, a wild and untouched wilderness.
Alberto decided to change the name, feeling it was a bit too...Soviet. He renamed it Empire Hall, a name that felt more in line with his ambitions. He made a few minor modifications, tweaking the design to better suit his vision.
He gazed at the sprawling landscape, realizing he had a city to build, a capital for his budding empire. But the thought of planning a whole city overwhelmed him. "But I don't know how to plan a city," he admitted, feeling a little lost.
[Don't worry. I will help you with this.]
The system reassured him.
He opened the system shop, and the menu unfolded before him, a dizzying array of options. With the system's guidance, he began to build his capital. He selected the blueprints, chose the layout, and watched as the landscape transformed before his eyes. Forests were cleared, roads materialized out of thin air, and buildings, seemingly impossible in their scale and complexity, sprang up like mushrooms after a rain.
He saw towers that seemed to pierce the clouds, intricate bridges spanning wide rivers, sprawling marketplaces teeming with activity, and magnificent plazas designed for grand celebrations.
