Chapter 409: : Department



"I will be establishing a new department that will specialize in preparing for the upcoming war,"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

My eyes immediately widened when I heard what he said. The department! I have written about this, but I didn't expect to hear this soon.

The department of War and Welfare!

"It will be named the Department of War and Welfare. I will assign people who have abilities and experiences that will greatly help us in the upcoming war. So, even if we receive any surprise attack from our enemies, we will still be prepared."

A noble raised his hand. "Your majesty, may we know who will be in charge of this department? Every one of us here has important positions in our own department. Wouldn't that hurt the other department?"

He doesn't need to worry about it because his majesty will not choose anyone from any noble who are present here.

The only ones present in this meeting are nobles who are holding a position in the monarchy. Those people who will be assigned to this department are not here. So, they shouldn't worry a thing about it.

His Majesty turns his head at the noble who asks that question. "You can be assured that no department will be harmed. I will only take a few of your employees, but it won't hurt the department as a whole."

I look at the noble and see his disappointed look. He was probably hoping he could be part of that department.

Another noble suddenly raise his hand too. "Your majesty, can we know who will be these people in charge of this department?"

His majesty shakes his head. "I cannot disclose their names for now because I still haven't talked to them if they want to accept the position. But don't worry, once I talk to them, I will announce it to everyone."

Department of War and Welfare...

I didn't expect I would see this Department being established this soon, but I guess this is the right timing for that because a war will soon break out in the Vrawyth Kingdom.

After the meeting, Father dropped me off at the Foundation, but instead of working, I decided to stroll around the capital because Lilla took the work I should do today. So, I have no choice but to do something else.

I don't want to stay in my office because I'll just end up staring blankly at thin air for the whole day, and I don't like that. I don't want to spend my day doing nothing at all.

I decided to just check the market to see if I could buy something for myself, but I couldn't find anything that interested me. I couldn't eat because I was still full from the lunch I had with Father.

I heave a sigh. I don't have anything to buy, and I still don't want to eat. What will I do then? I was contemplating what to do when a rental carriage stopped in front of me. I immediately step aside because I don't want to block anyone's way. But the carriage remains unmoving at its place. No one also gets off the carriage.

I look at the carriage in front of me and frown. What is this carriage doing? As far as I know, it is prohibited to park the carriage in here, so what is it doing here?

I was startled when the coachman slightly opened the window on his side, and a hand appeared out of it. The hand is holding an object, and it looks like it is showing that object to

me.

I frowned when I realized it was only a simple marble stone and nothing else. What am I supposed to d...

A sudden thought appeared in my mind, and I immediately got inside the carriage. I was immediately welcomed by a smiling Allan, Mister Sewell's guard.

"Apologies, Dame Csille, if I came here without notice. Our Master wants to talk to you. Do you have time for him?"

I frowned when I heard what Allan said. Mister Sewell wants to talk to me? But what does he wants to talk about? Will he ask me about the update with the favor he asked me to do?

I wasn't able to voice out my opinion when I felt Allan starts to steer the carriage. I immediately turn my head at him and frown.

Allan just smiled at me guiltily. "Apologies, Dame Csille. People are already staring at the carriage, and it will be suspicious if we remain there."

"I heard what you have been through, and I know it's never easy to deal with that, Prince Fraser. I'm just glad you didn't soften up when he approached you."

How will I? After what he has done to me? Also, it's not about how I feel, but it's more like how my decision will affect everyone living in this world.

I just shook my head at him and decided not to say anything after. Less talking, less mistakes.

I don't want this Mister Sewell to realize that I know what will happen in the future. He

cannot know my secrets.

"Dame Csille, is that the only thing his majesty announced this morning?"

I immediately became frigid when I heard his questions. He even knows about the department. So, how can I believe him that he doesn't know his majesty's decision?

Does he really think that Csille is a dumb person?

I heave a sigh and shake my head. "No, his majesty mentioned a thing about a department. He is planning to establish a department that will specialize in preparing for the incoming war. It is to prepare the whole Vrawyth Kingdom for war any time of the day."

I knew I couldn't lie to him, and I also knew I couldn't keep something from him, so instead of hiding it, I decided to just tell him everything in full detail.

I am, after all, his ally already, and it is only right for me to tell him what I know about this

department.

Mister Sewell nods his head. He then put his hand on his chin. He looks like he is thinking about something. "Department of War and Welfare. What a fitting name for the upcoming war." He then laughs softly.

That laugh almost feels like someone freezes my blood. I could feel my whole body freeze for a moment when I heard his laughter.

I just force myself to look calm. I cannot let Mister Sewell knows the effects of his laugh on me because I am sure he will not like that.

I was about to take my teacup to calm my nerves, but my hand stopped midair when I heard

what he said after.

"Dame Csille, I know you have a lot of trouble with the favor I asked you the last, but can you

do me another favor again?"

I already know the favor he wants to ask. I actually expected that he would ask me about it

today. After I had seen Allan in the market earlier, I already expected that he would ask me to do this for him. For his plan.

But even if I am already aware, I cannot let him know that. So, I look at him with a frown.

"Favor? Mister Sewell, I am unsure if I can help you this time. I had many troubles when I accepted your favor the last time. I'm not sure if I can still do that."

I was startled when he suddenly grabbed my hand that was resting on the armrest. He then

stares at me with his pleading eyes. "I know that Dame Csille but haven't you agreed to get revenge with Prince Fraser? Only by doing this can you get that revenge. So let me ask you do you want this revenge because I wouldn't force you if you don't want to accept my favor. I'm just worried about you since you are the one who wants to get back at his highness." Until now, is he still using that trick? Trying to make it look like that he is only doing this thing for me, but in reality, he was only using Csille's weakness for his own good.

I heave a sigh. I don't have much choice now, don't I? "May I know what is this favor you

want to ask, Mister Sewell?"

"I want you to become a part of that group."
