Chapter 877: Helena's Gift
"I'm going to go back to Baigull Harbor early tomorrow morning, and then return to Kitland City by airship to meet my father. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Roland told Helena.
"That's right......" Helena was silent again.
"The Admiral's Yamen can be cleaned up, and you also need a comfortable living environment."
Helena shook her head and said a little absent-mindedly: "I have a place to live, you don't have to worry about it, you can go...... When will you be back? β
"I can't say, there is still a dispute on the plateau that I need to solve, and I plan to return to the Fort of Atonement next." The Atonement Castle is Roland's hometown in this world, and after a two-year absence, he is really a little homesick.
"In that case, you're not going to come back anytime soon."
"That's not it, if you want to come back, you can do it with a teleportation technique, but you won't stay here for long." Roland explained.
"The island has just undergone a great change, and there are thousands of things to sort out, you are gone, what can I do about the things on the island......" Helena sighed worriedly.
Roland got up and walked to the window, standing side by side with her, his eyes looking through the window at the brightly lit port.
"There are indeed a lot of things on the island at present, but the most important thing is the safety issue, I am preparing to build a lock on the island, the cost has been paid, and the construction will start after negotiating with Beacon Hill; Then there is the building of a falconry base in the southern mountains, which has been agreed with Sir Edric, and in a while he will come to the island to preside over the work. After thinking for a moment, Roland continued: "I am afraid that I will have to go to war with the 'Dragon's Eye' this time, and I will need a strong air weapon against the Half-Dragon Legion, so I have lent the "Dawn" from the Airship Company, and seconded the Giant Eagle United to Sir Edric, and the brothers and sisters Zehir and Jennifer - as well as Flannis and Aurora. β
"Aurora, the female eagle who likes to imitate humans in her speech and manners?" Helena has an impression.
"It's that Giant Eagle Druid, she is Flannis's sister, the seconded Giant Eagle United this time is under her command, her brother Flannis is very interested in mechanical armor, I plan to establish an armored knight order, the specific work will be handed over to him, the mechanical armor required to Molozov to place an order, after a while I will select a group of young men with excellent physical fitness from the Southern Corps, and send them to the North Bay to receive armored knight training."
"Are there any other arrangements?" Helena asked.
Roland thought for a moment, and then said to her: "There are nearly 40,000 residents of Kolas Island, many of these people are lawless who colluded with pirates at the beginning, and the security environment is not optimistic, and I have heard that there are two gangs on the island, and they often fight for territory in the casino brothels near the docks, and they seem to have restrained a little during this time, but I am afraid that they will jump out and make trouble after this storm has passed......"
Helena smiled contemptuously: "Don't worry about those scum, I'll make them all disappear from this island tomorrow." β
Roland shook his head slightly: "Where there is sunshine, there will be shadows, these marginal people belong to the urban ecosystem, and they cannot be completely eradicated, as long as they don't go too far, it doesn't hurt to keep them, and they may come in handy in the future...... Needless to say, the island needs a sound government agency, and I have invited Mr. Kuntiliang to come out of the mountain to preside over the administrative affairs of the island, and to cooperate with Lyubov in establishing a new order in the North Bay. β
Kun Tiliang...... This person's reputation is not very good, Kraken and Maximian dealt with the North Gulf states through him in the first place, are you not afraid that he will eat inside and out? Helena asked hesitantly.
"Kun Tiliang is more sleek, but there is no loss in the big festival, the three sects and nine streams of Kolas Island are gathered, the social situation is very complicated, only a person like him who is good at dancing can control the situation, yesterday I had a deep talk with Kun Tiliang, many views coincide, he also made up his mind, close his office to work on the island." Roland smiled, and continued, "In addition, I seconded Katya from Vita to be the treasurer of Kolas Island, and also to help me secure my money bag, Katya accepted my invitation and offered to bring Antron and Orome as assistants, those two young people are rare talents, you can contact them more in the future." β
"Me?" Helena shrugged in surprise, "I thought I'd be free after tomorrow." β
Roland looked at her sideways, her burning gaze making Miss Sea Elf a little uncomfortable, and her fair cheeks flushed slightly.
"Helena, we've talked about the future before, and if you really want to go, I won't stop you, but I still hope you stay."
"What am I going to do with it?" Helena tugged at the corners of her mouth, "You're not here anymore, how boring I'm a housekeeper." β
Roland couldn't help laughing, held her slender hand and said softly: "It's overkill for you to be a butler for me, the North Sea Fleet needs an admiral, I think about it, there is no one more suitable for this position than you, and the fleet, dockyard and arsenal on the island will all be entrusted to you in the future." β
"But I prefer the position of butler!" Helena glanced at him meaningfully, "Originally, I could have been lazy in your absence, but now that you want me to manage the fleet, wouldn't it be too busy to die." β
"I'll ask Weta to assist you in your work, and that wandering swordsman, Alfred Orsin, is also a talented person who can serve as your deputy." Roland clenched her hand and said earnestly: "Helena, the island would be a mess without you, but I can't make your life a mess because I'm selfish, I need you but I won't force you, if you don't like the life I have arranged for you, please be brave enough to tell me, no matter what decision you make, we will always be friends." β
Helena didn't stay silent for too long this time, looking up into Roland's eyes, a smile on her beautiful face.
"I promise you, stay."
"Thank you......" Roland was grateful and relieved.
"You're leaving tomorrow, I have a small gift for you, please close your eyes, okay?" Helena smiled brightly, a slight shyness that made her beauty more lethal than usual.
A parting gift? Close your eyes? Roland's mind immediately flashed countless images that he had seen in the bloody bubble drama before the crossing, and he couldn't help but beat his heart faster.
"That...... It's better for you to close your eyes. "At this time, as a man, you should take the initiative.
Helena was stunned for a moment, then realized that Roland had misunderstood her thoughts, but ...... Fortunately, this was a beautiful misunderstanding, so I closed my eyes shyly.
Roland cupped her cheek and leaned over to kiss her on the forehead. Helena was not satisfied, the snake-like wrist wrapped around the back of his neck, and took the initiative to stand on tiptoe and raise her head to ask for a kiss......
The sweet deep kiss lasted for a long time, and they did not part until the breath was untenable.
Roland stroked Helena's round and smooth fragrant shoulders, stared at the beautiful red glow on the sea fairy girl's face, and whispered, "Thank you for the gift, I like it so much." β
Helena suddenly sneered, winked playfully, and said in a narrow voice: "I haven't taken out the gift yet." β
Roland was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that he would be wrong, and kissed Helena affectionately!
It's embarrassing......
Helena pursed her lips and smiled, took out a navy-blue scarf from her bosom, and wrapped her hands around his neck, like a gentle wife arranging her husband's clothes.
"This is the 'natal scarf' that was taken away by the Kraken, and it will automatically return to me after Kraken dies, but I already have a new scarf, this one is for you, cherish it, and take it out when you want me."
Roland stroked the silky and delicate scarf, and his heart rippled with tenderness, and leaned over to kiss Helena on the face again.
"I'll always have it with me."
At this moment, a system prompt flashed through his mind.
