The next day, Regner and Annelot went to the King's Council. Such meetings usually took place every morning and were used by the king to discuss the affairs of the state with his ministers.

In terms of status, the status of assistant to the chief of military intelligence was not enough for Anne Lot to attend such a meeting. But she has another identity, which is the youngest magical advisor of the Hawke Empire's Court Mage Guild. Magic, wherever it goes, attracts attention. Therefore, the Hawke Empire also has a rule that if the members of the Court Mage Guild have anything important, they can also attend the court council to speak.

"Are you nervous about attending parliament for the first time?" Regner asked with a smile.

"It's just to say what you think, why be nervous?" Annelot's expression was as flat as water, and it was clear that she was really not nervous because of this.

Regner couldn't help but nodded, Anne Lott is sometimes a bit of a fearless character, how to say that this is the supreme council that determines the policy and direction of the empire, this girl actually looks like a tea party. I really don't know whether to say that she has a good psychological quality and is arrogant.

Regnarco remembers vividly the scene when he first attended the council. He needed to report to Ralvin about the important events that had taken place on the mainland in the last few days, and as a result, his voice trembled when he spoke, and his legs and stomach trembled slightly. If Alex hadn't been on his side to help him, I'm afraid he would have been in trouble at that time.

Look at Anne again, this girl still doesn't change her face when she sees these ministers. But then again, she never had any mood swings even when she saw King Ralvin. The only one who can make her angry seems to be the only one who seems to be Uncle Regner!

Thinking of this, Regner couldn't help but feel a little proud. You see, I can make Anne angry, I can make Anne beat me, can you? None of you can do it!

Ralvin didn't say much when he saw Annelot, he glanced at everyone, and then said, "Now that everyone is here, let's get started!" Alfred, do you have any idea of what to do about the disaster in Locke Province that came yesterday?"

"Your Majesty, the land in Locke Province is barren, and the ...... there"

Ragner listened somewhat boredly as they discussed there, but he didn't say a word. He was originally only an eighteen-year-old boy, and he had been rushed to the position of the military intelligence department by Villereth before, and now he was able to do his job with ease. As for discussing state affairs with a group of uncles and old men and the like?

Looking at the spit that Ralvin and several ministers said there, Regner couldn't help but sigh that the king was not so easy to be. Just from the posture of the imperial council, Regner knew that Ralvin's usual time must have been filled with all kinds of state affairs. He probably had less time to rest than Regner, and I really don't know how this king managed to be so fat under such an overload.

"Ah, I don't know how long I'm going to stay here this time......" Regner couldn't help but sigh, thinking about repeating this kind of life day after day, Regner was a little sad.

"Regner......" Ralvin looked at the silent Ragner, and then said with a smile: "General Manhattan has sent back a letter a few days ago, and this time Haichao City was able to break down, and you have a lot of credit. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment, contributing my strength to the empire and the army is what I should do. Regner replied with a slight bow.

Ralvin looked at Regner, then continued, "In addition to this, General Manhattan also mentioned a person. His name is Kordak, and if I'm not mistaken, he's been in a mercenary squad with you before, right? ”

"Not bad. Regner admitted frankly: "Captain Cordak and I have been mercenaries together for several years, and I will not hide it from Your Majesty, and I have a very good relationship with him in private. ”

"Is it precisely because of this that Lord Regner will put down the affairs of the MI and rush to Haichao City to help him?" asked the tax administrator, he usually looked down on a stinky boy like Regner, who had not dried up, and when the government was in the council, he did not squeeze Ragner, and it seemed that it was going to be a "routine" again today.

"Lord Taurus, you're a bit one-sided. Alfred smiled, "Although Lord Regner only went to support Haichao City after receiving Mr. Cordak's letter, I believe that he must have accepted this military mission after considering the overall situation. And the results of his mission are obvious to all. Haichao City is an important city in the southeast of the empire, and this time the Manhattan generals were able to recover it, and Regner played a very key role in it. So, I don't think Mr. Regner would have his own personal feelings in this kind of thing. ”

"Lao Tzu just passed for the boss's letter, you bite me?" Regner rolled his eyes in his heart, but said on his lips: "Lord Alfred's words are serious, this time to recover Haichao City, although the kid has made some efforts, but when it comes to dispatching troops and commanding the overall situation, it is all done by General Manhattan." Therefore, in terms of merit, I am far inferior to the old general. ”

"Okay, the recovery of Haichao City is indeed a happy event for the empire, but when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds, there is no hurry. Ralvin said, "What I want to ask this time is what you think of Kordak. General Manhattan recommended him to me as a corps commander, and I don't know what you think. ”

"Since the old general appreciates Kordak so much, I must have something special about this man, so I have no objection to this. Alfred was the first to speak.

Seeing that the prime minister had already expressed his position, the other ministers also expressed their approval, of course, a few guys who disagreed with this matter were silent.

"Originally, in terms of rank, a corps commander was not enough to bring it to the government council for discussion. Ralvin moved his fat body in his chair, and then he spread his hands and continued: "But Cordak has only been in the army for half a year now, and if there is such a large span of promotion in such a short period of time, I am afraid that there will be some remarks within the army." Also, I remember that Kordak was only in his twenties, and he may have been a good piece of material, but his rise so quickly was not necessarily a good thing for him. So, Regner, you're more familiar with him, and I'd like to hear what you think of this person as he is. ”

"......" Regner was silent for a moment, and then said, "Your Majesty, there may be a personal emotional factor in me when I say this. But it seems to me that the old ...... Captain Kordak is a rare commanding talent. ”

"Oh, how rare is it?" asked Ralvin, smiling.

"If you give him a platform to show, I believe he can become a generation of famous generals in the empire!" Regnar said seriously but firmly. This is not his deliberate boasting, Kordaq has led their mercenary team around for several years, and he can lead them to complete no matter how difficult the task.

This kind of accurate and rational judgment and command at a critical moment is a very rare ability. It can be said that as long as Cordak is by his side, Regner believes that there is no problem that he cannot solve. It's an almost blind trust, but the reason for Regner's emergence is that it has been given by Kordak's reliable performance over the years.

"......" Everyone was a little stunned, they didn't expect that Regner would be so nepotistic about this person. Is he a famous general of the empire? Does he regard this Cordak as a Manhattan general or as Prince Alexander? is just a mercenary who licks blood with a knife and sells his life for money, doesn't he think it's too fake to give such a high evaluation?

"Niece. Ralvin was very kind to Annelot, after all, she was the person Marolette loved the most, and showing respect to her was also a show of favor to Marollet.

"Your Majesty. Anne Lott was also very respectful, and it wasn't the first time Ralvin had called her niece, she was used to it.

"Do you think so?" asked Ralvin.

Anne Lot nodded: "I don't think Lord Regner's statement is too much. How much talent he has, Captain Kordak will naturally use his performance to leave dissatisfied people speechless. And himself, after so many years of experience, I believe that he will not have the problem of impetuousness and arrogance. ”

Ralvin thought for a moment, then nodded: "Since you think so, well, I will approve this application from Manhattan." I'm looking forward to seeing what he does on the battlefield." ”

"I'm sure he won't let you down. Regner said with a smile.

Ralvin smiled noncommittally, "And you, niece. Is there anything wrong with attending the Imperial Council this time?"

Anne Lot said: "I heard in the Mage Association that His Majesty is going to build a magic academy, and many mages in the association have already started to get busy with this. Although Anne is not talented, she also wants to join the construction of the Academy of Magic. ”

"It's not about leaving you out. Ralvin chuckled and explained, "I just saw that you were concentrating on the work of the MI, so I didn't inform you." Why, Anne, are you interested in this as well?"

"The Academy of Magic will be something that will benefit the empire for generations to come, and Anne is naturally very enthusiastic about it. Anne Lot's face showed a very rare hint of enthusiasm: "If she can, Anne hopes to make her own contribution to the construction of the Academy of Magic." ”
