Chapter 98: Is Someone Thinking About Me Again?
In the Storm Empire’s imperial palace, Belek knelt on the ground and looked at Harold in the dragon chair with a good smile.
“That’s what happened, Your Majesty!”
“Master Mas agreed to meet, but he’s currently preparing to refine new alchemy products, so he can’t leave his tower. If you want to see Master Mas, you can go to the Alchemy Tower!” Belek smiled.
Hearing this, Harold’s eyes were filled with power.
He pondered for a moment and nodded slightly. “You did a good job on this, Belek!”
Belek trembled with excitement when he heard Harold’s praise.
“It is my honor to work for Your Majesty!”
“In the future, if there’s anything you need me for, Your Majesty, just let me know. Even if there’s a sea of fire at the bottom of the mountain, I will definitely do my best!” Belek hurriedly expressed his stance towards the heart of the royal family.
One word from Harold could change his life. How could he not be excited?
Harold glanced at Belek. He did not fully believe in Belek, but he felt that Belek was indeed capable.
Belek had done a good job this time. He thought for a moment and decided to give Belek a taste of his own medicine.
“Belek, now, I officially confer you as the president of the Storm Empire’s Chamber of Commerce!”
“From now on, you will manage the Chamber of Commerce of the Pine family!” Harold said in a voice.
“Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, Your Majesty!” Belek smiled widely when he heard Harold’s reward and kowtowed to thank him.
“Alright, you can go down now!”
“When we go to the Alchemy Tower to meet Master Mas, I will send someone to inform you.” Harold waved his hand and signaled for Belek to retreat.
Belek immediately left respectfully.
Then Harold looked at Anthony and asked, “Now, how many beautiful women are there in the Pine family who are older than 16 and younger than 22?”
“Is His Majesty only referring to direct members of the Pine family?” Mage Anthony asked.
“No, other than direct members, other members can be considered as well.” Harold shook his head slightly.
Mage Anthony thought for a moment and replied, “Your Majesty, there are about a dozen women who meet the requirements among the direct members. There are even more who meet the requirements among the other members. If we add them together, there should be nearly a hundred!”
“Summon them immediately. All those who meet the requirements, immediately get them to come and see me,” said Harold.
Mage Anthony did not understand Harold’s intentions, but he did not dare to disobey Harold’s orders.
“I’ll go now, Your Majesty!” Mage Anthony said and hurried out of the palace.
Harold rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.
“Grandfather, are you tired?” a man asked respectfully as he looked at Harold.
Harold glared at him.
“Rosa, remember this. I don’t want to repeat myself!”
“Although I am your grandfather, this title is not allowed in the main hall of the palace, understand?”
“This is the place where all the systems of the Storm Empire are established. Here, there are no relatives but rulers and ministers!” Harold said in a low voice.
“Forgive me, Your Majesty, I understand!” Rosa said, lowering her head.
“Rosa, your father doesn’t have the ability to govern. He is a boorish man. Although it is because of him that our Pine family can firmly sit on the throne of the Storm Empire, you have to remember, governing a country requires not only strength but also brains.”
“If a country is governed by force alone, it will never last. The Baiwu Empire that was destroyed a hundred years ago is the best example. The emperor of the Baiwu Empire was a Legendary Expert with unparalleled combat power. But what happened?”
“In the end, the empire turned into chaos. Even if he used his strength to suppress it, it was useless!”
“To rule a country, one needs brains. Your father is the deterrence of the military power of our Storm Empire. You have been smart since you were a child, that’s why you were chosen to be a new emperor. If we can rope in our relationship with Mas this time, it will be beneficial for us and allow us to rule longer!” Harold looked at Rosa and said earnestly.
“Thank you for your wise words, Your Majesty!” Rosa said respectfully.
“But Your Majesty, there’s something that I don’t understand. Why did you summon all the ladies above 16 and below 22 years of age in the Pine family?” Rosa asked doubtfully.
Harold smiled. “I want to hear your opinion!”
Rosa thought for a moment and asked tentatively, “Your Majesty, are you planning to use the excellent and beautiful women in the Pine family to attract Master Mas’s attention and then use the method of marriage to pull your relationship with Master Mas?”
Hearing this, Harold looked at Rosa and shook his head slightly. “You still have a lot to learn!”
“How old do you think Mas is as a legendary alchemist?” Harold asked.
“Anyone who can become a Legendary Alchemist must have been immersed in alchemy for dozens of years. I think Master Mas is at least 50 years old or even older!” Rosa said.
“Then do you think Mas, who is so old, will be sentimental about some little girls?”
“To be honest, I’ve met many alchemists, but all of them want to get on our good side and will accept our invitation. They want to borrow the wealth of the royal family!”
“But Master Mas is different. He ignored our royal invitation. In the end, we used the relationship with his disciple and a Space Stone to get Mas’s invitation to meet him in the Alchemy Tower!”
“From my point of view, Mas and his disciple, Dyson, must have a good relationship. Dyson is young and hasn’t been in contact with many things, so I plan on using the young and beautiful woman to rope in Dyson.
This way, we can gain a considerable advantage by talking to Mas through Dyson in the future! “Harold explained.
Hearing Harold’s explanation, Ross’ eyes lit up.
“Your Majesty, what a brilliant move of yours!”
“I heard from Belek that Dyson is less than 20 years old and as Mas’s apprentice, he must be studying alchemy. He doesn’t have much time to interact with women and uses the excellent women of the Pine family to get close to Dyson!
If we succeed in the future, it will be equivalent to having a relationship with Master Mas! “Rosa looked at the admiration in Harold’s eyes and said excitedly.
“Remember, sometimes, when you encounter trouble, if you can’t solve it, change the solution. Before you do anything, it’s not wrong to think more,” said Harold.
“I understand.” Rosa nodded excitedly.
At the same time, in the Alchemy Tower, “Achoo!”
“Flu again? Could it be that someone is talking about me?” Mas rubbed his nose and had a strange expression.
