Chapter 581 The Princess's Concerns
Chapter 581 The Princess's Concerns
"..."
Never mind, what is coming will come...
After listening to the hunchbacked shadow's question, Director Scorpio couldn't help but bite his cheek hard, and then under the extremely happy gaze of a certain red-haired woman, he spoke reluctantly:
"The person behind me... is Leon Ryan, a Level 3 cleaner sent by the Virgin Branch for support. Thanks to his help, this investigation mission was barely completed."
Leon Lion? Isn't that the one who ate the Death Guardian Dog...!
After hearing this recently well-known name, the hunched figure's expression suddenly froze slightly, and then he immediately put away the admiration on his face, nodded awkwardly and said:
"No wonder, it turned out to be that genius cleaner who only appears once every ten years. I remember that he was the one who exposed Director Aquarius's conspiracy. The Virgin Branch headed by Ms. Olivia is really full of talented people."
“It’s just so-so… Actually, he’s not that good, ahahaha.”
Seeing that the "crime" of destroying the Korok Kingdom was actually taken by Chief Scorpio, and that not only were he and the Virgin Branch not implicated, but they were even proud of it, the red-haired chief smiled from ear to ear and wished he could hug Leon immediately and give him a big kiss.
What I thought was right. The correct way to use Lyon is to go out on field missions!
If he were sent out on field work, he could rely on his outstanding ability to successfully resolve issues, bringing great honor to himself and the entire Virgin Branch, and any trouble he caused in the process of doing things could be thrown away and let others bear the responsibilities for him.
Oh my... this is really, so beautiful!
……
That's enough! You better calm down!
After glaring at the overjoyed red-haired director, the headache-inducing Taurus director spoke again:
"Anyway, the Kingdom of Korok is gone now, and even the original land has been burned to ashes. The twin branches that should have been built in the Kingdom of Korok can only be rebuilt somewhere else. Do you have any recommendations?"
“Can’t we rebuild it on the original site?”
The director of the Pisces Branch stood up and suggested:
“The citizens of the Kingdom of Korok are still here, and there is also a direct descendant of the Korok royal family alive. Even if the princess does not intend to inherit the royal family, her husband or future children may not necessarily do so.
What's more, the area of the Korok Kingdom is not large, and the core territory is only as big as a city. With our support, it shouldn't be difficult to rebuild a Korok Kingdom, right?"
"It's not difficult, but the consequences will be troublesome."
Director Jinniu shook his head upon hearing this, and after explaining in more detail the three blood oaths of the King-Slaying Society and the current situation of the Korok Kingdom, he continued to explain:
“In short, if the Kingdom of Korok is rebuilt on the original site, it is very likely to trigger the blood oath again. Moreover, even with our support, it will take a long time to rebuild the Kingdom of Korok. It will take at least seven or eight years to restore the kingdom to its original size.
Although we are able to support the 1.3 million people in the Kingdom of Korok, if we continue to support them for seven or eight years through abnormal means, I am afraid that a large number of abnormal incidents will arise.
At a time when the Twin Branch is in urgent need of reconstruction, we have neither the manpower nor the time to clean up these newly emerged anomalies one by one, which will inevitably cause a large number of casualties, so this plan is not suitable."
"Then...how about incorporating all the citizens of the Kingdom of Korok into the nearest city-state of Meibis? This way, they won't be considered "original inhabitants" and there's no need to worry about triggering the blood oath.
Then, we just need to upgrade the original Maybis State to the Maybis Kingdom, which is equivalent to rebuilding another Korok Kingdom, and the Twin Branch will have a place to rebuild. "
"Mr. Pisces, I'm afraid this is inappropriate..." Upon hearing this, in order to avoid being intercepted at the last minute, Leon had no choice but to stand up and say:
“Although the city-state of Meibis is very close, it is only a city-state and not a kingdom. Both its population and land are limited, and it is difficult to support the 1.3 million people of the Kingdom of Korok.
Besides, the only remaining Sixth Princess, Felia, and the citizens of the Kingdom of Korok have some ideas about their own future and have no intention of rebuilding the kingdom. It would be more appropriate to choose another place for the Twin Branch Office!"
"Leon is right. It's really not appropriate to do this."
After Leon finished speaking, although it was not clear what he was targeting, the red-haired chief still cleared his throat and immediately stood up to help:
"Let's not talk about the city-state of Meibis. Whether the citizens of the Kingdom of Korok are willing to join or not, the blood oath alone is worrying. I think it's better not to rebuild a kingdom with the citizens of the original Kingdom of Korok as the main body.
As for the location of the new Gemini branch... let's just choose the city-state of Meibis! As for upgrading to a kingdom, forget it. After all, no one stipulates that the Zodiac branch must be built in a kingdom, or in a large city-state. "
"In that case... it doesn't feel bad."
The director of the Pisces Branch thought about it, nodded slightly to show his agreement, and said:
“The total population of the Meibis city-state is about five times that of the Korok Kingdom. It should have a small or medium-sized branch office to handle any abnormal incidents that may occur in the surrounding area.
The reason why we didn’t build another branch in the past was because Meibisbang was too close to the Twin Branch, and the population of the Kingdom of Korok was too small, so we directly handed it over to the Twin Branch for management. Now it is reasonable to move the entire new Twin Branch there.”
"Indeed, this arrangement is most appropriate."
"Seconded."
"I have no objection either."
"Then it's settled. As for the specific candidates, we'll decide after the cleaners from the Gemini Branch wake up."
After deciding on the location of the new Gemini branch, Director Taurus glanced at Leon, who was relieved, and then glanced at the smiling red-haired director. He shook his head helplessly and then reminded:
“Olivia, remember to inform Her Majesty the Queen who is about to take over the throne, and ask her to be prepared to receive 1.3 million citizens. Don’t let anything go wrong again.
In addition, you will be responsible for protecting the only remaining sixth princess of the Korok Kingdom. I will have someone send a few life-saving abnormal items over later. Let her stay with you for now. I will transfer her to you after I am promoted to the palace and the headquarters is unsealed... Any problem?"
"No problem! I promise to complete the mission!"
……
Hmm...the moon is full again?
Princess Veronica raised her head from the pile of documents and looked at the bright moon outside the window. She couldn't help rubbing her sore eyes, and then glanced at the desk calendar filled with schedules.
Almost a month has passed since he left for Lyon's diplomatic mission. During the time he was away from the capital, his life had returned to being a stagnant pool of water. He felt really lonely.
Also, I remember that the envoys mentioned before that the people of the Kingdom of Korok have always been arrogant towards envoys from other countries, and even cursed in the conference room. I wonder if Lyon will be wronged during his visit to the Kingdom of Korok...
