Chapter 43: For the Peace of the World, Let's Be Together (Chapter 3000)
In the manor hall of Hearthfire Island, everyone sat down according to their original positions.
Nora looked around at everyone with some emotion: "Seriously, we haven't been together like this for a long time, have we?" β
Everyone was slightly stunned when they heard this, and then they each showed complicated expressions.
"Isn't it because someone stole Hearthfire Island?" Mia said sarcastically unceremoniously.
"In the future, if you miss Hearthfire Island, you are welcome to come to Solomon City to find me at any time." Nora said with a smile.
Mia pursed her lips, then looked at Asker in exasperation.
In the past, she would definitely say that Hearthfire Island was the property of the Azure Sword, and it should be in the hands of the current leader of the Azure Sword, that is, me, Mia.
However, the entire Azure Sword is actually Asker's team in name. Now that the former head of the regiment has come out, the legitimacy of her identity as the current head of the regiment will be shaken, and naturally she will not be able to quarrel with Nora again.
"The main reason for bringing everyone together this time is to reunite and meet." Aske said with a smile, "Of course, during my absence, there were a few conflicts between the members of our team, and I can mediate when I come back." β
The girls rolled their eyes in unison. What is the biggest contradiction between us, don't you have a little pressure in your heart, head of the regiment?
Then they saw little Lilith climb up to Asker's lap from the side of the chair, and then sat down obediently on her father's lap with a sigh.
"Mediation!" She cried out sweetly and raised her little arms, "Let my little Lilith preside over it!" First of all, there is the question of paternity! β
"Shut up!" With a slap from Asker, he pressed the little Lilith who was on the rise, "First of all, there is the issue of warring between countries. β
"I understand that you are not only here to represent yourself, but also to the political interests of the forces of your respective camp. It is unrealistic to persuade you alone to completely eliminate international conflicts. But my thoughts are: after all, everyone is from the Blue Sword team, and there is also a kind of old friendship and friendship between each other, at least we can try to avoid resorting to violence and losing both sides in advance. β
Seeing that the girls had no objections, Asker continued to talk:
"For example, we can use Hearthfire Island as a meeting place where people can meet one day a month to strengthen each other's feelings, and also to exchange ideas and reach consensus on behalf of the forces behind them, so as to minimize conflict and disagreement. I can also help make peace when necessary. β
His suggestion was a novelty. Prior to this, there were no diplomatic matters such as "talks" on the mainland, but most of them belonged to "talking about things", such as declaring war, wanting to trade with each other, or other exchanges, so the leaders of the two sides made an appointment to meet at a place. If nothing happens, everyone will naturally go their own way.
What Asker proposed at this time was a more frequent, regular high-level gathering. Since it is a "gathering of people when there is something to do", it explains the essence behind it, and it is more like a kind of "political party" than a "state meeting", and the element of connecting feelings is greater than the element of talking about serious things.
However, considering that everyone here is the leader of each other's camps, and their attitudes towards each other can largely determine the attitudes of their respective forces, it is necessary to say that it is a "state meeting...... So-so, nothing is a problem.
Of course, even as faction leaders, it is beneficial to have personal friendships with each other. The more we get to know each other, the easier it will be to make political and diplomatic mistakes.
It's just that Asker made this suggestion, and his own meaning couldn't be more obvious.
The green sword of "helping each other and becoming one" in the past is no longer back, but he hopes that everyone can at least become friends, instead of life and death enemies who kill each other.
This is something that no one can mention, after all, the conflicts of interest and grudges of the past six years are there, and if you let us sit down and talk, we will sit down and talk? But Asker can.
Because he is the leader of the Azure Sword, he is the common spiritual sustenance of the girls.
"There is no problem on the Holy See's side." The current Holy Lady of the Holy See, Nora thought for a moment, then looked at everyone with a smile, "I think it's a good idea to meet regularly to communicate feelings. β
"Wait." Mia suddenly raised her hand and said, "If the meeting place is set on Hearthfire Island, considering that Hearthfire Island is currently in Nora's hands, we are not at ease. β
"Then I can give the ancient book to Asker." Nora said without hesitation.
"Well, I'll be in charge of keeping the Hearthfire Island in the future, and I'll never harm everyone, do you have any objections?" Asker immediately took over the controversy.
Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and then stopped talking. If you really can't trust Asker, who will sit here and negotiate?
"I've agreed to meet regularly." Her Royal Highness Eleanor, the eldest princess, seconded, "But I can't represent the Holy Solomon Empire, if it involves official affairs, I can't make a decision, I have to go back and communicate with my family." β
"There is no problem with the HelsingΓΈr Empire in the north." Hidlifa and Medea muttered a few words, then agreed, "We are not afraid of any threat...... Just for the sake of Asker's face, this proposal is acceptable. β
"There's no problem with the Azure Sword here." Mia said with satisfaction. Since Hearthfire Island is back in Asker's hands, it is actually equivalent to being in her hands, after all, she can teleport to Asker at any time.
"There are no problems with the Eastern Solomonic Empire either." Theodora nodded, he had already expected this: in this way, friendship with the neighboring country of the HRE on land and Mia and her friendship on the sea would greatly reduce the pressure on the defense line in the western border of the empire.
"Okay, as for the first item, 'regular meetings', we have reached a consensus, and it has been decided." So Asker simply clapped the board neatly, and regained a bit of the domineering feeling that he used to be the head of the regiment, "Then, the second thing is ......"
"Divide up Daddy!" Little Lilith sprang out again.
"You go down and shut up!" Asker angrily pressed her head down again.
"But it's really a problem." Medea said lazily, "After all, everyone is hungry for your body, isn't it?" How are you going to fix it? β
"I don't really have any thoughts about love." Aske said frankly, "It's disdainful to say that, but I don't want you to fight each other because of where I belong, it would make me look unman and irresponsible." β
"Isn't the reason why we fight each other because you never give everyone a clear answer?" It's okay not to say it, but as soon as he talked about it, Sidlifa immediately shouted angrily:
"Asker! Since you know that you are disdainful, then you come out and solve the problem like a man! β
As soon as she thought that since the head of the regiment came back, everyone had been fighting for each other in turn, and the worst thing was that she hadn't eaten a bite, and she was so angry that she was about to explode, and she stood up angrily, smashed the table and shouted:
"Don't you just say who you want to be with? As a result, whoever comes to pick you up, you will go with whomever you want, I haven't chased you for so long! Are you a roadside homeless bear? Can you take the initiative to be a man! It's okay to say, 'You want them all'!! β
"Okay, I'll do it all!" Asker replied immediately.
Girls: ???
"Hahaha, just kidding." Asker waved his hand and said casually.
So the girls finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they were a little subtly worried, for fear that Asker would have to report the name of true love next, and that name was not herself.
Mi'er looked at Aske worriedly, and was about to get up to speak, but was stopped by his eyes.
There are some important words, but after all, you have to say them yourself.
"After all, this still depends on the opinions of both parties, I can't say that I want it, it's too disrespectful to you." Asker sighed and said seriously, "It's better to be voluntary." If it is acceptable, depending on the final number of people, I will try my best to fulfill my responsibilities as a husband. β
Girls: ..................
"Wait!" Nora was speechless, and asked in astonishment, "Asker, what do you mean...... You want to open a harem? Married to all of us at the same time??? β
"If I'm only with you, and then the other girls unite to attack the Holy See, are you okay with such an outcome?" Aske asked her seriously.
Nora was tempted to say, "Of course", but she was a Holy See saint after all, and she knew that what Asker said was indeed true - this was the most likely outcome after the exclusive possession of the head of the regiment.
Previously, just when the HRE and the North sent a state interrogation at the same time, the cardinals were in chaos as if they were facing a great enemy. If this really adds to the Pirate Fleet of the Dongluo Empire and Mia and them, then the entire Holy See will really be blown up, and even the Licinius family will not tolerate their own willfulness.
But...... Shouldn't you say that? Under the pretext of being good for me, you want me to accept such a reality, Asker, you are too disdainful!!
The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and she couldn't wait to drop the sentence "I don't have to be you", and then turned around and left in a dashing manner...... But think about the child in the belly, his legs are like being sealed by a chair, and he can't stand up.
The expressions on the faces of the other girls were also shocked, disgusted, or unacceptable, and even the atmosphere seemed to freeze for a while.
Suddenly, a sweet little girl's voice sounded again:
"Daddy opens a harem, yes! I'll have a lot of younger siblings, right? β
Poof. Hearing little Lilith's innocent speech, Nora couldn't help laughing, and the embarrassing atmosphere that originally shrouded everyone was swept away.
