Chapter 461: Schemes and Politics

Ashton Harbor

"I understand, I will not disappoint you," said the man with the staff respectfully.

He had been talking since he received the news of their loss but in his eyes. There is not of speck of anger. Instead, there is a joy, which he has a hard time containing.

A moment later, the spell was cut to the other side, and he turned to the armored man with a big smile on his face.

"Have you succeeded?" he asked and the man with staff nodded, with a joy on his face.

After over half a year, he got what he wanted.

"Yes. I now have complete command of our forces in this continent," replied the man with the staff.

Earlier, he was only in charge of the name; most of the important commands were taken on the island.

Now, they have decided to finally give the command. A complete command with minimal interference.

There was no choice, seeing the repeated losses

If they had given me a complete command from the beginning, they wouldn't have suffered so many losses.

Its good they fixed that mistake. Now that, I have the command and I will conquer this whole region and put under the foot of his deathless.

"So, what is our plan?" asked the armored man.

"Organize our forces, make them akin to the hordes that had swept away everything in their on the island, and wait for more numbers to come," replied the man with a staff.

"That will take some time," said Armored man. "It's fine; I rather hope, it takes time," he said with a mysterious expressions appearing on his face.Upstodatee from n(0)/ve/lbIn/.(co/m

The armored man wanted to ask about what he was thinking but thought better of it and remained quiet.

Damon Hardt

"So, you have decided?" asked Scala, to which I nodded. "It will be hard to get it and even if you did; it will be very dangerous," she added.

"I know, but it is also an opportunity to rise," I replied and looked out at window, seeing the tower distance away, bathing in lights.

Even during the battle; the legacy didn't close. I was there and one of the few people allowed on the roof to watch the battle.

It was terrifying and mesmerizing; the enemy had no choice, but to retreat.

It had been an hour since I had got the news of the undead's defeat at Port Midlet.

It made Panar safer than before.

Silver won't be there forever, and he will have to leave. This means he will have to keep there someone in charge of things, a Governor.

I want to become Governor of Panar.

It is dangerous and I might die, but I know, Silver will do everything to keep the city safe and there are always ways to get away before danger touches you.

There is also one rumor, I heard about Silver awakening the aura, but I wasn't able to verify it. Given they are keeping a tight lid on the communication.

When Prince Grelt got the dominion here, the family was thinking about buying a barony, but I was opposed to it.

It will separate me from the family and power. I didn't want that and resisted that decision, but the Governor of the city is a completely different thing.

It is a big responsibility with far more power than the tiny baronies. Most important; the condition of the family is different than it was seven months ago.

Becoming governor will help them and it will help me as well gaining more power in the family.

"Please take a seat, Chief Hardt," he said. "Thank you," I replied and sat down in front of me.

"What can I do for you Chief Hardt?" he asked. I could already tell, he had guessed for what I had come for. I am sure, he must be contacted by a lot of people.

"I will come directly to the point, Chief Robin. I want you to recommend me to Lord Silver for the position of Governor of Panar," I stated.

"Sure, not a problem. I will write the letter of recommendation for you," he said and it surprised me before I wanted to curse the bastard.

"How many people, have to agree to write the recommendation for, Chief Robin?" I asked and the man smiled.

"I only agreed to recommend those who are capable," he replied before his expression turned serious.

"Before leaving he discussed a few names with me for the position. The list had ten names and your name was one of them," he added.

My heart filled with elation but soon calmed down.

So, Silver had my name on the list, he was discussing, but there were ten other people's names, he was discussing.

It won't be easy to get the job.

"Who else was on the list?" I asked and the man smiled. He is not going to tell me.

"Thank you for the recommendation Chief Robin and I hope, you will prepare that letter before midnight; I planned to leave for Panar with it," I said, and a surprise flashed in his eyes.

"You are planning to leave at midnight?" he asked. "Yes," I replied.

I have noticed a few things about Silver in the past few months. He likes those who take initiative and risks.

So, if I want the advantage over the others. I will have to leave for Panar and convince him personally for the job.

"Thank you for your time, Chief Robin," I said to the man and walked out.

Lola followed behind me. I had worked with enough, that we could communicate with expressions. I am going to ask her for a recommendation.

She knows Silver well and I know he listens to her opinions. It would be helpful if I have her support.

True support, not the one like Robin is giving.

......

Carla

"Thank you for your time, Miss Carla," said Harrison and walked out.

He is going to leave for Panar soon.

The old man is ambitious. Even tried for my job.

I sighed and looked at the list of people, I had to meet. My schedule is full till midnight.

Till an hour ago, I was planning to sleep early. Yesterday, I was barely able to sleep. I was all worried about Remus, but now that won't be possible.

Everyone wants to become a Governor. I wish, I could tell them, that Remus had already made up his mind.

He didn't say that directly, but I could tell when I met him before leaving.

It would be quite a shock when he will make that announcement.

'Sister Carla, I am sending Mrs. Hardt in,' said my secretary telepathically, and a second later, the door opened, and Scala Hardt walked inside.
