In order to limit the information about Vry's people to a small extent and to properly entertain the princess, who came in the name of a meeting but was actually seeking refuge, Xiao Ran decided to arrange for the princess to stay in the mansion.
Speaking of which, there were too many secrets in the homeland. It wasn't impossible to find one or two places to settle Shanamia down. But after all, there were quite a number of people in the princess's entourage. Who could guarantee that all of them had no problems? Especially when the princess's freedom couldn't be restricted for a long time, one or two spies or people with ulterior motives would simply be asking for trouble.
It was better to just settle her in the presidential palace in the capital of the satellite. In any case, there were only four people living there: Xiao Ran, Sherry Dew, Mary, and Zhui. Mary didn't go back every day, so it was more than enough to allocate a building for her.
However, Xiao Ran didn't know what Karolan was thinking, nor did he know that Kane also chose not to know about this matter. Otherwise, Xiao Ran wouldn't have arranged for Shanamia to stay by his side.
It wasn't that Xiao Ran was pretentious. He didn't think that such a thing was a big deal. If a beautiful woman came over, Xiao Ran would be a fool to reject her. Besides, marriage was a strategy between factions to seek stability. In order to let Vry integrate into Earth with peace of mind, Xiao Ran would accept the marriage. Not to mention, he would be able to obtain all the secrets about Vry without any underhanded means. For the entire Burning Legion, there were only benefits and no disadvantages.
However, Xiao Ran had to more or less consider the thoughts of Sherry Dew and Mary, who were already related to him, and Zhui, who had always been by his side, so he had to pay more attention. But Xiao Ran didn't know about Karolan's plans, nor did he know that Kane was happy to see this happen. He only considered the practical issues and arranged for Shanamia to stay by his side.
From a practical point of view, if Vry officially proposed the marriage, not only would Kane be happy to see it happen, but many people in the entire Burning Legion would also be happy to see it happen. Cruzet, Xiaya, Rabir, Vry, and even Mary would make the same choice after some consideration. And judging from the current situation, the possibility of Sherry Dew agreeing was probably very high. It was just that she would refuse to make Shanamia a follower.
It didn't take long for the shuttle from the moon to arrive at the capital of the unified satellite system. And because Princess Vry was on the shuttle, Vry, Cruzet, and Xiaya all sent their subordinates to protect the shuttle. They only left after the shuttle safely entered the capital.
As the president of the unified satellite system and the real controller of Earth, Xiao Ran personally went to welcome the princess. Looking at the beautiful princess in gorgeous clothes with long hair, who looked very gentle but revealed a sad temperament, even Xiao Ran, who had seen many beautiful women before, was stunned.
But Xiao Ran, who didn't have any other thoughts, was only stunned for a moment. With a smile, he walked toward Shanamia.
When he stood in front of Shanamia, Xiao Ran bowed slightly. He didn't do anything impolite by extending his right hand, nor did he intend to kiss her hand. He just said with a warm smile, "Welcome, Princess Shanamia from Vry. I'm very happy to have you as a guest of the unified satellite system. I'm Xiao Ran, the president of the unified satellite system. I represent the unified satellite system and Earth to welcome you."
"President Xiao Ran is too polite." Shanamia put her hands together and hung down naturally, as if she was hugging her lower abdomen, but it was more natural and gentle. She also bowed slightly to Xiao Ran. While looking at Xiao Ran with a curious gaze, she replied in a gentle voice, "I hope we won't cause any trouble for you by coming to disturb you at such a time. I also hope President Xiao Ran can forgive us for changing the meeting location without permission."
"Not at all. Your Highness chose to meet at the unified satellite system. This is your trust in us. We can't be more than happy. Why would we find it troublesome?" Xiao Ran smiled slightly and gestured with his hand. "Your Highness, please come with me. I have already arranged a place for Your Highness to rest. I think Your Highness should need a good rest. We'll set a time for the official meeting later."
"Okay, sorry to trouble you." Princess Shanamia was very polite and gentle. She followed Xiao Ran all the way, but she also noticed that the young girl who had been following behind Xiao Ran was sizing her up. There was a little dissatisfaction and annoyance in her eyes. Although she didn't know why the young girl was looking at her like that, she still showed a gentle and kind smile to the young girl.
Ryukino looked at Shanamia's innocent smile. In fact, she had a slightly hesitant temperament, but she showed a smile that seemed to be full of sunshine and warmth. Ryukino was stunned for a moment, but she quickly returned a friendly smile to Shanamia.
Xiao Ran also noticed Ryukino's smile from the corner of his eye. As he walked, he turned around and introduced her to Shanamia. "This is Ryukino, my temporary secretary. She will be in charge of entertaining Your Highness for a while."
Shanamia seemed to be very happy. "Well, Miss Ryukino looks like a very trustworthy person."
Xiao Ran chuckled, "Is that so? Although I think so too, I still have to thank you for your praise."
It wasn't until Xiao Ran and the princess left that Kane, who had been motionless all this time, finally raised his hand. Two people walked out of the shuttle with Goulandon, who was completely devoid of freedom. His hands and feet were heavily shackled, and his face was filled with anger and gloominess.
When Goulandon was brought behind Kane, Kane spoke without turning his head. "This old and decrepit body is completely useless. If we can get information from him, we can get it from other people as well. There's no need to waste food on trash like him. Get rid of him and send his samples to the genetic center, then destroy him completely."
As soon as Kane finished speaking, Goulandon's gloomy expression immediately turned into shock and sluggishness. He didn't expect the other party to spend so much effort to capture him instead of killing him directly. They even brought him from Vry to this place without asking him a single question. They didn't play by the rules at all. Why did they have to bring him here from so far away?
Goulandon struggled for a moment, then asked loudly with a hoarse voice, "Why!?"
"Why?" Kane turned to look at Goulandon with a puzzled expression. He replied, "You're completely useless to us. The reason why we didn't kill you there was because it wasn't suitable to see blood in front of the innocent princess. We also didn't want to show our overbearing side. Since the princess has already left, you're naturally useless."
"Oh, that's right, your DNA sample is actually quite useful. Later on, we'll use your DNA sample to create clones. Clones are clones, but they'll be of a higher level. Our people will also control the clones, and when Aselda and Karolan are unable to deal with Frey's situation, we'll completely solve Frey's problem. So, your mission has long since been completed. Sparing your life until now is already a kind of mercy."
"Ah …" Goulandon stared fixedly at Kane. His mouth opened weakly, and red liquid flowed out from his mouth. At some point in time, Kane's sword had already pierced Goulandon's chest and came out from his back.
"Forget it, I'll deal with him myself. I can't go against that man's orders. If I miss anything, it'll be troublesome."
Kane said as he pulled out his sword. He used a clean handkerchief to wipe the blood off the sword before putting it away. He looked at Goulandon who was kneeling on the ground with a thoughtful expression. While thinking, he took out his pistol and fired another shot at the back of Goulandon's head. A green barrier appeared in front of him to block the splashing blood.
