Chapter 1058: Invasion
?
"Are you serious?" That was the prime minister''s reaction when I came into the study.
I didn''t even need to ask him what he was talking about as I already knew what he was referring to.
There was only one thing that he could be referring to in this situation, so it wasn''t hard to figure out what he was talking about.
It could only be all of the things that I brought back from my trip to the Land of Giants, but more so Alidus than the Great Wolves. The Great Wolves were easier to ept since there was the experience with the wyverns.
The prime minister could easily see the value of the Great Wolves, just like with the value of the wyverns.
In the future, the Great Wolves would be a powerful resource for our kingdom.
It was just the fact that I brought Alidus back that he was angry.
Aftering across the border, Alidus was naturally surrounded by the soldiers of our kingdom. Even if there were a group of wyverns escorting him, it didn''t seem like they let down their guards against him.
That was because he was the unknown and people were afraid of the unknown.
So naturally they couldn''t ept him that easily.
In the end, I was able to use my position to get him all the way to the capital of our Kite Kingdom.
Since we had wyverns, there were many gates and facilities that were built at the size of the wyverns for him to use. Though it almost made it seem like he was something that was being treated just like the wyverns, like he was a creature that was being tamed.
At the same time, it was a bit smaller than him since it was built for the wyverns. Since he was bigger than the wyverns, then it was a bit cramped for him.
Still, at least there was a ce for him to stay for now.
As for me, right now I was trapped in this room with the prime minister and the chancellor. The chancellor was even at the door to make sure that I didn''t escape.
Though the room that they trapped me in was my royal study.
In the end, I said with a bitter smile, "I didn''t expect him toe with me so early either, but it wasn''t as if I could say no."
"You didn''t have to say no, there were ways for you to send a message back so we could prepare for it, right? You were just trying to avoid me, weren''t you?" The prime minister said while ring at me with narrowed eyes.
I couldn''t help turning away when I saw him looking at me like this since it was a fact that I was avoiding him.
It was certainly possible to send a message ahead of time, especially since we had the mobility of the wyverns. The aides that he sent with me even advised that I do this so that the prime minister would be prepared for the surprise I had.
But I stopped them because I wanted to dy it as long as I could.
So in the end, these were the consequences of my own actions.
Seeing that I wasn''t saying anything, the prime minister eventually said with a sigh, "Alright, it''s already happened, so it''s something that can''t be changed. In that case, we should just look to the future."
Even though it seemed like he was about to forgive me, I didn''t buy it that easily.
I knew that the prime minister wouldn''t ept something like this that easily and wouldn''t forgive that easily, so there must be something elseing.
As expected, there was a catch to this.
"You''ll be in charge of handling everything rted to the Land of Giants." The prime minister said in a decisive voice, as if there was no room for discussion.
While this didn''t seem bad to an outsider, I knew what he really meant by this.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
He meant that in the future, I would be in charge of everything rted to the Land of Giants.
That meant that anything that was rted to the Land of Giants, I would have to handle.
The paperwork, the distribution of goods, and all the small stuff woulde to me. There was no doubt that it would be a lot of work and it was something that the prime minister had handled before, but now...
There was a bitter smile that appeared on my face when I heard this, but I just gave a simple nod in response.
After all, this was a punishment for what I had done and it was even considered a light punishment out of all the things that he could have done.
So it was better to just ept this.
"There''s an invasion!"
Before any of us could continue speaking, there was a loud voice that suddenly rang out.
We were caught off guard by the soldier that suddenly came into the room.
But then we immediately reacted to what he said.
"What invasion?" The prime minister immediately asked in a calm voice.
The soldier had been in a panic at first, but hearing the voice of the prime minister, he calmed down to say, "There is a wave of undead that is approaching our borders. It''s not just our borders that are being attacked, but also the borders of several other countries that were being attacked at the same time."
"Where did theye from?" The prime minister calmly asked.
The soldier said with a shake of his head, "We don''t know. They just suddenly appeared and started moving on our border, so we have no idea where they came from."
The prime minister knitted his brows after hearing this before saying, "Get the royal guards to move. I know that they must be tired after what happened, but try to find the least tired ones to go and provide support at the border. All they have to do is ensure that the undead don''t cross into ournd."
