"Your Highness, I heard from them that His Highness the second prince will be representing the Roth Empire to attend the various races' meeting in Chaos City in two days' time." Lora walked into the room with a plate of desserts as she looked at Vanessa, who was writing something seriously on the table.
"Chaos City!" Vanessa stopped writing. She looked up at Lora, and curiously asked, "Isn't the peace conference starting in 10 days' time? Besides, Royal Father would definitely go to such an important conference himself. Why would he let Second Royal Brother go? "
"I don't know about that." Lora shook her head.
"Humph. This is definitely not a very important meeting, but since Second Royal Brother is going, then I think I should go too. Royal Father is being biased!" Vanessa put down her pen, stood up, and walked out.
"Your Highness, it's already so late. Where are you going?" Lora quickly put down the desserts in her hand, and followed her anxiously.
"I'm going to look for Royal Father. I want to go to Chaos City too. Every day feels like a year without hot pot," Vanessa said angrily.
"I'm afraid His Majesty has already gone to bed. You'd better not go." Lora tugged at Vanessa's sleeve gently. She regretted mentioning Chaos City to the princess.
"He won't go to bed so early. I'm just going to take a look at his study. If he's not there, then forget it." Vanessa continued walking.
Lora knew the princess's temper. She wasn't someone she could persuade easily, so she had no choice but to keep up with her.
In the royal study.
Andre looked at Josh, who was standing, and said, "You just have to observe this trip to Chaos City. You don't have to make any statements, nor do you have to give any promises. It's just an unofficial meeting of the various races. It's appropriate to showcase the power of our empire, but don't make our intentions too obvious."
"I understand." Josh nodded slightly. He hesitated for a moment before saying, "What should I do if there are any contracts to be signed during the meeting?"
"The peace conference is in 10 days' time. Any contracts should be discussed by the adults. It's not up to you to decide." Andre smirked disdainfully.
"Yes." Josh lowered his head as a strange red glow flashed across his eyes.
"Imperial Father! I want to go to Chaos City too! I want to go with Second Brother too! "Just then, Vanessa's voice came from outside.
"Where did this lass get the news from?" Andre laughed involuntarily and said to the people outside, "Let the princess in."
Vanessa walked in hurriedly, and took a look at Josh. She immediately tugged at Andre's hand, and coquettishly said, "Royal Father, I'm going to Chaos City too. Second Brother is here too, so let me go with him. I promise I'll be good, and I won't create any trouble."
Andre looked at Vanessa with a doting smile on his face. He shook his head, and said, "I'm afraid not this time. Josh has important matters to attend to, so he can't take you out to play."
Vanessa shook her head, and said, "It's alright. I'm much more familiar with Chaos City than he is. I can play by myself, and I don't need him to bring me around. Besides, isn't Uncle Abraham still there? I can play with him, so you don't have to worry."
"Heh, Royal Father has never spoken to me with such a smile before. You really don't hide your love for me." Josh looked at the two of them with a deep gaze, but he still had a gentle smile on his face. He said to Andre, "Royal Father, let Vanessa come with me. The round trip will only take three days. I'll bring her back safely."
Andre glanced at Josh with furrowed brows.
Vanessa was pleasantly surprised, and said, "Royal Father, Second Brother has already agreed. Don't worry, I'll be a good girl."
"Alright, then you'll go to Chaos City with Josh." Andre nodded, and then sternly said, "But don't think of running away this time. Otherwise, I'll get someone to bring you back."
"Mm-hm." Vanessa nodded. She thought for a while, and said, "But, Royal Father, didn't you say you wanted to thank Mr. Mak properly for curing my teeth? Why don't you take this opportunity to thank him? I'll hand it over to him personally. I remember the reward for curing my teeth was 1,000,000 copper coins. "
"Yes, we should thank him properly." Andre nodded. He looked at Josh, and said, "Josh, when you reach Chaos City, follow Vanessa to meet Mr. Mak. Hand him the reward and express your gratitude to him."
"Yes, Royal Father." Josh nodded slightly.
…
At the city lord's castle.
Dicus walked into the conference room, and said to Michael, "City Lord, the official venue has been arranged. However, although the scale of this meeting is not as grand as the peace conference, it will still gather all the representatives. Isn't it a little too casual to hold the first meeting at Mamy's?"
"Casual? Of course not. " Michael shook his head with a smile. "Mamy's is the number one restaurant in Chaos City. It's our city's name card. Even I, the city lord, have to go and negotiate with them personally if I want to book the whole place. Such a venue is much better than any conference room in the city lord's castle. Moreover, every meeting where all the major races gather is very tense. There are many cases where fights break out at the venue. "
"Then Mamy's won't be able to withstand a fight," Dicus said with a raised brow.
"Mr. Mak's delicacies can soothe restless hearts, and help all the representatives calm down quickly. This is a good start for the negotiation. This is also the reason why I chose Mamy's," Michael said with a smile.
"Then, please confirm the seating arrangements again. For example, how should the seating arrangements for the Night Elves and The Wind Forest be arranged …"
…
Amy's rabbit dance was praised by Irina. After supper, the little one quickly fell asleep in Meg's arms.
Meg placed the little one back on the bed, and went downstairs again. He got two glasses of beer and sat opposite Irina again.
"Michael came to find me this morning, and said he wanted to book the whole place for the meeting," Meg said after taking a sip of beer.
"I know. The Night Elves have also received the invitation." Irina picked up a piece of fish and ate it. She was not surprised by Meg's news.
"The dragons intend to lead the world to maintain peace. This is a good thing."
"But this world is no longer easily led by the dragons. You should know better than me how powerful the Roth Empire is," Irina said to Meg as she raised her glass.
Meg was silent. Even without him, the Roth Empire was still powerful enough to crush any other race apart from the dragons.
The huge population had given birth to countless powerful knights and magic casters. They were also proficient in spell formations and cooperation. Coupled with the huge number of the empire's iron cavalry, once a war broke out, the normal races would not be able to resist it.
"As long as Andre isn't stupid, he shouldn't lay his hands on the other races before getting rid of the Great Old Ones." Meg shook his head with a smile. He then looked at Irina, and said, "The Wind Forest should be sending people to participate in this negotiation, right?"
"I'll kill whoever comes," Irina said calmly after taking a sip of beer.
