Evelyn ended up hiding this political joke: what if she can use it in the future?

These days, in addition to running to the mushroom house, Annan also took time to walk around Liberty City and meet many fresh-faced officials. They ran around Liberty City with a modest and gentle attitude, practicing the Liberty City Code.

Standing on the terrace of the City Lord's Mansion, the bustling streets made Annan realize that Liberty City was no longer the original home-like appearance, but more and more like a real city.

But there are still not enough people...... At the end of the day, Liberty City is too young, not even two years old.

"I plan to deepen my connection with Montreal Mountain, do you have any comments?" This was the idea that Annan had born out of seeing the strength of Blackwatch and knowing the Empire's determination to defend Middle-earth.

A strong and reliable ally is more important than many things.

Liberty City currently has only two allies: the Duchy of Montabullrock and the House of Sturet.

But it just so happens that they've all been damaged, and they can't help Liberty City.

Skeletron is half a friend, more like a friend of Annam than an ally. As for the age gap...... No matter how big it is, how big can it be as big as an elf mentor?

"Marriage."

“…… What about other than that? ”

"Deepen the connection."

"Thank you, Ingrid......"

Annan guessed that Olmedo must have spoken ill of himself to Ingrid, allowing an assistant who had never known only about official business to target him.

"Then it's the same as other places, spend money to buy the area around the Moonlight Opera House and turn it into a commercial street?"

Annan didn't do this because the land in the Montreal Mountains was too expensive...... The cost of building a shopping street there is enough to build dozens of shopping streets elsewhere.

Now, almost half of West Middle-earth has Villefranche's theaters and shopping streets, and it's close to saturation, so you can have the luxury of driving the shopping streets to Montreal Hill.

"I'll go ask Mistress Etilia for money in a moment." Ingrid said.

"We also need a trustworthy person to take charge of the Montreal Hill business, do you have any recommendations?"

Annan was going to arrange for the person in charge to come over and bring Serita Dana and Tribulus back to rest for a few days. Although they are the ghosts of Montreal Mountain, and their stories are known to the children and old people of Montreal Mountain, they are always people of Liberty City.

They haven't been to Liberty City yet.

"How's Rhona Gilman?" Ingrid said.

"Lorna ......"

Annan recalled the name, "How happened to her and her sister ...... 'brother'?" ”

The only four beneficiaries of Annan's wheelchair are the Ancestor, Editria, Mr. Victor, and finally the "elder brother" of Rona Gilman.

This girl, who still wanted to eat herself in Breeze City, forgot about the dark past of the Gilman family and started a new life after taking her paralyzed brother like a girl to Starmoon Bay.

She had always followed Annan steadfastly, and remained unheard of after coming to Liberty City. Francois, who defected to Annan at about the same time as her, was already a diplomat in Liberty City, but she was still quietly working as a "street officer" in the city.

No one here remembers the Gilmans' dark history, and even if they did, they wouldn't connect Rhona with her "brother", a poor paralyzed girl, to the terrifying cannibalistic family of Breeze.

It is also said that someone wants to find a husband for her brother.

"If she's willing."

While still sighing, Annan saw Francois leading a team of elves dressed in cool and delicate close-fitting clothes woven of vines and green leaves.

"This is the first wave of elven missions sent by the Elven Court?"

"For the fifth time." Ingrid behind the scenes.

Annan was silent for a moment: "How many more times do they want to visit?" ”

"Lord Itilia estimates that the alliance should be finalized as soon as 1003 in the Yves Saint Laurent calendar."

"Do you know that this year is just 1001......

"Elves have a lifespan of thousands of years, and three years is like two months to them...... It takes two months to determine that the alliance is considered a normal rate. ”

Thinking about it this way, the Elven Court is already very important when it visits Liberty City almost once a week.

"The elven mentor is back?"

"Miss Irilanzer is now the ambassador in charge of the Covenant, and she can't stay in Freeville forever."

I haven't seen him for a long time, and Annan still misses the elven mentor's ...... The appearance of the .

Francois led the elven envoy into the elven embassy not far from the city lord's mansion, during which one of the elves raised his head and looked at Annan on the terrace.

Speaking of which, the elves still don't know that there is a "World Tree" planted in the garden behind the City Lord's Mansion, and they don't know what the reaction is to let the elves know that there is another World Tree, accept that there is a second World Tree on the Allen Continent, or not?

"You go and call Rona Gilman for me."

Annan said, leaving the terrace and heading out into the garden.

The Otherworldly Tree grows at a rate of a few centimeters almost every day, and although it has the effect of a strange fertilizer, Dade's care also contributes to it.

With Annan's arrival, the otherworldly tree, which had surpassed him in height, gently swayed its branches, exuding joy and excitement.

Annan thought it was his own delusion, how could a tree show such an anthropomorphic thing as emotions?

But if it's the World Tree, it seems reasonable to exude emotions.

Annan didn't see Dade, who was supposed to be tending to the wheat fields in the north at this time.

Annan stroked the trunk of the Otherworldly Tree, and it wouldn't be long before it could manifest the wonders of the WorldTree.

Not long after, the maid Abby ran to say that Rhona Gilman was here.

Annan returned to the City Lord's Mansion, and Rhona Gilman sat on the living room sofa on the second floor, holding the hot tea that Abby had prepared.

Annan was about to say "Are you used to staying here?" before remembering that Rhona should have been in Liberty City longer than she was......

"I want to give you a mission."

"Ingrid told me." Rhona Gilman looked up.

"What about your opinion?"

"Can I take my brother with me?"

Annan sat across from Rona Gilman. Perhaps because of the difference in status, Rona Gilman seemed quiet and reserved, but Annan was still as gentle as before: "Of course. You don't have to worry too much, Montreal Hills has my friend and he ...... They will help you, and maybe you will be a champion when the time comes. ”

"...... me?"

"The riches on the Montreal Hills are staggering, as long as you steal ...... I mean, you can be a champion by earning a small amount. ”

"But what does that have to do with the championship?"

"Liberty City Sales Champion!"

The person in charge of the Montreal Hill business was determined, and before Annan could send Rhona Gilman away, the parchment that had been silent in his arms for a long time suddenly became hot.

Beludona was calling him.
