Chapter 1084 - Preparing For The Worst!

"Lead the way."

"Yes!!"

With that, the soldier walked as straight as he could and took the crowd towards Conference room 8, the largest one on the floor.

~Bam!

The doors were opened, revealing a simple but imposing room.

One look and one would know that this room was for business only.

There were water bottles on the table too.

And within the room were Penelope, Santa, Carmelo, Adrian and a few other people's secretaries.

That's right.

The use of secretaries had become a very standard thing in Carona.

Not only were they trained in the School for secretaries, but they also had a high level of professionalism that had put several people's worries to rest over the years.

Basic things like checking one's schedules, making appointments and so on, made many people's lives easier.

For one, Penelope appreciated her secretary, Janet.

Many people did that by sending their people to get the professional skills needed for the job at the school.

Even the Head researcher had his secretary, who attended some events on his behalf while continuing his research.

It was just too good.

And the way they reported things back in detail made many happy with it all.

They reported everything like how assassins would report matters, going so in-depth.

It was truly a good thing for businesses since everyone, irrespective of their status could hire secretaries.

Everyone took their seats and spoke for a bit until Janet rang a little bell, indicating that the meeting had begun.

Ding!~

With that, they officially began.

34 minutes had passed by, with them talking over some of the things they noticed could be improved on.

Overall, they were indeed satisfied with the results of today's show.

"Alright. Since we were able to create the first batch, we have to discuss the matter of distribution."

Distribution?

Instantly, everyone's face turned solemn as they leaned forward subconsciously.

Penelope glanced at them calmly before flipping the doc.u.ments before her.

"Everyone, please turn to page 11."

~Flip. Flip. Flip. Flip.~~

The sounds of pages turning echoed out within the room until it slowly died down.

"Before we get to the matter here, as you all know, we have a few problems in our hands. Commander Wilfred. Would you like to take this one?"

"Yes, your majesty." Said a deep voice

With that, everyone quickly turned towards a large, broad-shouldered man with a gruesome cross-like scar just below his right eye.

Commander Wilfred!

This name alone could make many in Carona, and even within Pyno, shiver with fright.

He too was somewhat of a legend, for even though Carona had been more peaceful than any other empire throughout the centuries, it still had its fair share of intruders.

And Wilfred's legend as a mighty General at war is still one of the greatest war stories in Carona of all time.

Everyone stared at the fierce man silently, just waiting for his response.

.

Wilfred turned to Penelope and nodded before looking at everyone sternly: " Concerning the troubles we predict, there are indeed quite a lot. Firstly, we should never forget that we did knock out an entire prince from a powerful continent sometime last September. Yes. I'm talking about Prince Skye, the Veinitta Prince."

Everyone's eyes dilated.

Yes. That guy was a prince!!

Thinking about it, their faces turned grim.

Veinitta was a little worse than Morgany, nonetheless fierce and brutal as well.

They will never stand by when they get the news!

Which monarch would stand by and allow people to insult his son?

Whether Skye was doted on or not, it didn't matter.

They might even feel more insulted that it happened in Pyno.

As people of Pyno, they knew how the other powerful continents viewed them.

So they already knew that when Skye's family gets word, they will come here for revenge!

Wilfred squinted his eyes and scanned everyone's faces calmly, giving everyone time to fully understand the matter.

"Prince Skye is just one of our problems. Another major concern is that we seem to have another threat as well.

It has come to our attention that a mysterious Order has infiltrated several empires in Pyno, getting members here and there.

For all we know, there could be members in Carona as well.

All of you are here in this very private meeting because we are 95% confident that none of you are members.

None of you fall into the category of people they are looking for and lack several vital qualities they want.

We also trust in you all as well.

Now, as for the Order... Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah..."

....

And the more they listened, the uglier their faces became.

This wasn't good!

How could these dangerous people just walk in and out of the place at will?

Thinking about the fact that pirates also did their dirty work by kidnapping people, they then remembered some of the reports they got of people missing and a few people spotting pirate sh.i.p.s on the shores as well.

Dammit!

Who did these people think they were?

This was Carona!!!

Everyone's heart pounded loudly with hatred and rage.

~Bam!

Someone smacked the table hard.

"How dare they?

How dare these people kidnap their citizens so brazenly?"

"That is, they did it so openly with no fear whatsoever!"

"Dammit! I feel like punching something!

I swear, if I find any traitors from that bloody order around, they're getting the death sentence!"

Everyone was in anger when they imagined all their kidnapped citizens stolen away from them.

Heh.

At least, they were glad that Pyno had finally reunited as one!

Because from the looks of it, they will all face these people from the Order.

Penelope thinned her lips while listening to everyone erupt in anger.

She too was furious when she read Landon's letters.

Did they think she was dead? Or did they look down on her to do such a thing in her reign?

Not on her watch!

A dangerous light flickered in her eyes as she calmed her murderous aura.

.

"Everyone, calm down.

We are here to talk about our security and countermeasures.

No matter what, we have to get prepared for every possibility... And that includes War!"
