Chapter 145

*Unedited

TN: Happy New Year guys!!! Sorry for the late updates as I was busy traveling all around the world for Christmas as well as the New Year~!

Just wanna say a great big thanks for being the best readers out there for bearing with all my lateness in updating as well as all of my disappearing acts . Im really sorry about that…

” Ah, come to think of it . He must have thought that there wouldn’t be anyone like that . You should have seen his expression . ”

Thinking back to the Emperor’s expression, I can’t helped but grinned .

The former Emperor… Let’s just call him Guta . Although I gave him a lesson on our first meeting, he showed no signs of being irritated as others do when they were being taught by a kid . Instead, he looked at me with honest eyes, or perhaps he was simply a serious person who preferred efficiency, and was moved by the things I said to him .

And then, after looking back at all that he did, Guta deeply reflected upon his deeds and kept on apologizing regretfully to me . So much so that I had forgotten about the anger I felt for his action and simply felt stunned at his change .

Besides, Guta was not the one who created the [Shadows] or set down the practice to demeaned Beastmen . Moreover, it seemed like Guta did not directly laid down the order to endanger my friends when the incident happened with Selphy so I could somehow suppressed my anger . It did felt a little like how those politicians went ” It was the secretary who did by their own accord . ” but I was just going to leave it at that .

Since I was entrusted with by the King with Hattuo, there was no way to avoided Guta so bearing a grudge was really not feasible . Plus it would be better for my mental health .

And so, my rationality convinced my feelings to to ‘forgive ‘ . The deeply regretting Guta did make things a lot easier though .

Since Hattuo was going to became a vessel of Elzmu, I would need to make a trip over in ordered to set everything in motion . Since I had to managed a country, there was no meaning in going in my own .

Country management was usually done as a group, or a council . Hmm, I was having a sense of déjà vu like I had thought about these things before… Did I raised a flag then?!

I would really like to asked the ‘Flag raising’ god but it’s put this matter aside for now .

The problem now was personnel . The King had given me advice that as the basic minimum, I would need to have at least an intelligence corp under my direct supervision . He also added that he could give me anyone I had in mind .

I had initially thought that the King was joking when he said that because there was no way I would know any intelligence member who would be willing to work under an 8 year old . But hey, reality was always unexpected .

” Well and so, if Calius-sempai agrees, I would like you to to be part of the Knights Intelligence Corp under me . ” ” Wh, what, wait, what?! Isn’t this too sudden, Will?! ”

Ah, by the way, I haven’t told Calius-sempai about Hattuo being a vessel of Elzmu or that I was going to be the commander-in-chief in that matter . Others were soon going to know about it but it was still top secret information at this moment . But since this was Calius-sempai, there was a little fear in me that he already knew about it .

Right now, that usual poker-face of his was dyed in surprise . He even rode onto my rhythm and gave a tsukkomi back . That showed the height of his surprise .

” So… do you want to do it? ”

Ignoring Calius-sempai’s surprise, I repeated my question . And why was that?

” Of course I am if I can . ”

That’s why . I already knew his answer .

” Okay! So Sempai, as my subordinate, you are to infiltrate into Hattuo for information . This time, Hattuo is going to be a vessel country under Elzmu . Ah yes, I am also going to be the commander-in-chief . ”

Ah, ha ha ha . Even Calius can’t stopped opening and closing his mouth from all this information . Don’t worry Sempai, that’s a natural reaction .

And so, I got my first subordinate . There was a lot of things I had to do and I already had a inkling of how bothersome this was going to be . But still, I can’t helped but felt excited for the future to come .
