Chapter 845 There’s a way
The looks on both my face and the prime minister's face made it clear that we could see how severe the problem was.
But at the same time, it didn't seem like either of us knew how to solve this problem...
Shadow One just stood there in silence, but it was clear that he was getting worried when he saw that the prime minister didn't have an answer.
Normally, the prime minister would at least have some kind of stopgap measure to give. However, this time, it didn't seem like the prime minister had any idea of what to do.
That was the most terrifying thing of all for Shadow One who deeply believed in the prime minister.
If even the prime minister couldn't think of a solution, then this seemed like it was a very big problem...
As such, Shadow One was filled with worry seeing the prime minister like this.
After a long silence, the prime minister finally looked at me with an expectant look. It was as if he was hoping that I would have a way to deal with this matter.
There was a bitterness that came from deep down, but I did take this seriously and started thinking of a solution. After all, I was the king of this kingdom now and this wasn't just a problem that affected him, but also me.
As the king, I should at least do something to protect the people of my kingdom.
After thinking for a bit, I did come up with a way.
It wasn't as if there wasn't a way to deal with this increased monster activity, but it wasn't an easy solution either.
It would require quite a bit of work and it would require...
"It isn't as if there isn't a way to deal with this increased monster activity. In fact, there's even a chance to take care of the monsters for a good while."
Both Shadow One and the prime minister were surprised to hear this.
There was no way that anyone else would be able to do the same thing as me.
Even if I were to give instructions to the ones that went, there was nothing better than handling the situation in person. After all, there was no one else that could do the same thing as me since they didn't have the same knowledge as me.
The prime minister immediately deeply knitted his brows when he heard this, but he didn't immediately refute it which was a good sign.
It seemed that he was at least giving me the benefit of the doubt as he looked at me with narrowed eyes as if he was scrutinizing me. It was as if he was trying to figure out how serious I was about this.
So I just looked at him with a calm look in my eyes.
After a long period of silence, the prime minister turned back to Shadow One and said, "Summon all of the shadows, the elites of Shadow Garden, and the hidden guards of the royal family. We have to make sure that we don't make a single mistake."
Shadow One was shocked to hear this before looking at me with a strange look.
But in the end, since it was the prime minister giving this order, Shadow One had no choice but to obey.
Especially since the shadows had become an elite unit of the royal guards since the former fourth prince was now the prime minister. So they were also under me and were supposed to protect me.
Once Shadow One left to put the prime minister's orders into action, the prime minister turned to look at me and said, "Tell me what this small chance is. If it's too dangerous, then there's no way that I'll let you go."
Even though he summoned everything, it seemed like he still wanted to know everything.
Though this seemed more about the people that he was summoning than it was about me.
After all, there was no way that he could risk everyone's life on a plan that only had a slim chance of succeeding.
I gave a slight nod before I told him a bit of what I knew.
I couldn't tell him everything after all.
