Chapter 779 (2/2)

”Good” Roland smiled ”Then the next one”

This time, all the problems could be readily solved since all the officials saw the king's determination and accepted the tasks without any hesitation

After assigning the tasks to the officials, it was tio for the exploration

Pasha's voice resounded in everyone's head again Most of the officials got scared again, but as soon as they saw Roland cal to the tentacle monster, they calmed down a little and did not flee the hall in panic

Since they had already promised His Majesty to ith the Taquilla witches, they thought that all they needed to do at this moment was force themselves to re the tentacle monster, they all closed their eyes and lowered their heads, pretending that they were engrossed in their thoughts They acted as if the sound was some evil spell from the hell instead of a female voice

Seeing theh or cry

Edith was the only official who dared to look at the light curtain

Sometimes, she even tried to talk with the Senior Witches of Taquila like Roland did

Not wanting to be upstaged by his opponent, Barov ed to lift up his head several ti in the end

Roland had expected this and had planned to not get the City Hall officials heavily involved in the conversation

At last, the Taquila witches agreed to send 50 God's Punishment Witches to team with the Witch Union and these witches were the roup of 500 soldiers with Brian as their commander to join this exploration as well

The re troops in the city would be teainst the demonic beasts at the border

When both parties agreed on these arrange, Edith suddenly raised her hand

”Your Majesty, I wish to apply to join the Snow Mountain Exploration Teaether with the First Army soldiers”

Barov's , ”Come on, you're not a witch or a soldier Don't mess up His Majesty's plan”

She insisted, ”I used to serve as a fencing coach in a knight battalion and defeated each ofdemonic beasts within five rounds I can protect myself”

Roland asked curiously, ”What's the reason for this request?”

Edith explained, ”The Battle of Divine Will is getting closer to us, but none of the officials sitting here knohat the deround creatures look like As we know nothing about our opponents in the upco war, I'm afraid that the City Hall won't be able to reach Your Majesty's expectations I know that soainst the deet involved into the war-related stuff However, once the battle begins, all the departments such as the Ministry of Construction and the Ministry of Agriculture will have to satisfy the needs of the war effort This is inevitable and so to do a great job in City Hall, we also have to know our enemies well”

”You” The City Hall Director wanted to retort but did not knohat to say at this moment

Roland could not help sht sound a little belligerent but was quite interesting He also derived an inspiration froreat new rule that only allowed promotion of the officials who had worked in the cities located on or near the front line during the battle In this way, he could guarantee that the officials of the City Hall would never underestimate the iovern wartime

Besides, he believed that it would be alright to let Edith join the First Army's action as she indeed had battle experience

He nodded to the Pearl of the Northern Region

”Well, please go get ready for the exploration”

”Yes, Your Majesty” Edith s beside her ears and boith a smile
