Elizabeth enters Alberto's office
"Good evening, Your Majesty"
Alberto, looking up from his docunts, said, "Ah, Elizabeth, Good evening. Humm...You brought more files. I was thinking that maybe I could get so rest now," Alberto said, the look of exhaustion clear in his eyes.
"Excuse , Your Majesty. But as an emperor, you have many responsibilities. You don't have ti for luxuries."
Alberto let out a long breath.
Elizabeth handed Alberto a file.
"Minister Jas has requested so items. The Britannia Kingdom wants to have cultural exchanges with us. Here is a list of what he wants. He has requested that these be sent within three days. Also, he has requested several soldiers and weapons. Because the Britannia Kingdom wants to see our military capabilities."
"Well, okay, then send it. I don't see any problem with it." Alberto said with a little annoyance, a tired look in his eyes.
"But Your Majesty, the problem here is that their ports are not large enough for our ships. It will be difficult for our ships to dock."
"Hmm, that's a problem. So how about sending the goods by air?"
"Your Majesty, they are a dieval country. How can you expect them to have an airport where our planes can land?" Elizabeth stifled a smile, looking at Alberto.
"Well, I'm very tired. My head isn't working properly. So what's your suggestion on this matter?" Alberto said, a hint of annoyance evident in his tired eyes.
"Your Majesty, I think we should send an aircraft carrier. We can send the goods to the port by helicopters from the aircraft carrier. That would be very effective." Elizabeth said confidently.
"Okay, that's a very good idea. I'll allow it."
Alberta signed the file and affixed his seal.
He then handed the file to Elizabeth. "Handle it right," he said.
Elizabeth took the file and gave Alberto another file.
"What's this for?"
"The Navy is requesting permission to patrol the entire Monstrous Sea"
"But we don't have enough ships to patrol the entire Monstrous Sea."
"For this reason, Admiral Ramirez has requested the construction of 100 Fubuki-class Destroyers and Type VII U-boats. Since they are of a relatively simple design, they can be produced quickly," Elizabeth said.
"Also, I propose to build four more shipyards and six automobile factories. The number of factories we currently have is insufficient."
"Hmm, okay, I authorize this." Alberto signed and sealed the file. "Anything else?" he said, looking at Elizabeth.
"Please, Your Majesty, see the third file."
Alberto opened the third file. "Hmm, another island."
"Yes, Your Majesty, our navy has found another island six hundred kiloters northeast of our island. This island is approximately three hundred thousand square kiloters in size. Our reconnaissance aircraft have observed it well."
Alberto began to flip through the pages of the file.
He looked at the pictures taken from the reconnaissance aircraft.
'This people's civilization looks like the Inca civilization.'
Wait a minute
"These humans are ten feet tall !? Is this true? I an, how can they be so big?"
"Your Majesty, a naval ship went near that island. They confird it. We don't know how they got so big. But I think it could be genetic or environntal cause"
Then Alberto receives a ssage from the system.
[ Mission 56: Establish relationships with the people of this island]
[Reward: Superhuman Strength]
Alberto's eyes widen.
This prize is so great! There's no way I can miss it, this superhuman power will be very useful for .
"Elizabeth, make contact with the people of this island. The responsibilities of the foreign ministry are going to increase. So, Tell Jas to hand over all his responsibilities within the Britannia Kingdom to Joseph and co back to the empire."
"I understand."
"Hmm, very good." Alberto expressed his satisfaction.
"Then I take my leave now."
"Of course, "
Elizabeth turned towards the door
______________
The heavy door closed silently
mbers of the ISSD (Imperial Special Security Division) standing outside salute her.
Elizabeth smiled warmly at them.
She continued down the palace's vast corridors. On each side were gold lights, luxurious wood carvings, and thick carpets.
The palace staff greeted her as they saw her. Since she was the most powerful person in the empire after Alberto
"Pri Minister Elizabeth, how are you?" Alfred said with a cheerful expression.
"Ah, Alfred, it's been a long ti since I've seen you. I'm fine and how are you?" Elizabeth said with a welcoming smile.
"I'm fine. It's almost dinner ti, you can have dinner here if you want."
"Another day, Alfred. I have a lot of work to do."
"Ah, of course. You guys are doing a lot of work for the Empire, while I can't do anything for the Empire," Alfred said, looking a little bored.
"Alfred, don't forget that you are the Emperor's butler. Your service is very important," Elizabeth said to Alfred with a light smile.
"Thank you for your words," Alfred said, sowhat sheepishly. "I try to do my best."
"No problem. I'm going now," Elizabeth said, with a smile.
"Have a good night," Alfred said, with a polite smile.
Elizabeth said, "Thank you, Alfred. Good night to you too."
Elizabeth exits the palace.
Three Rover p5 model cars were waiting for her outside the palace.
One car is for Elizabeth and the other two are for the bodyguards.
A mber of the ISSD, dressed in a gentlemanly black suit, opens the car door for Elizabeth.
After Elizabeth got inside the car, the cars started moving.
Hum...Vroommmmm...whoosh...whoosh...
The bodyguards got into their cars and provided security from the back and front of Elizabeth's car.
***
Elizabeth let out a tired sigh.
"Rena, give a bottle of water."
"Here, Mam," Rena, her personal assistant, quickly handed a bottle of water to Elizabeth.
"Thank you," Elizabeth said, opening the bottle and taking a sip.
"Ma'am, you should rest. You're very tired," Rena said, worriedly.
"I still have a lot of work to do. I can't waste ti resting now. Our Emperor is working hard to move our country forward, and as his loyal servant, I am ready to help him in the best way I can."
"You're right, Mam. We should help the Emperor in every way we can." Rena agreed, a look of devotion clear in her eyes.
"Of course!"
"Also, Mam. The Minister of Finance requested to et with you." Rena said
"Why?"
"Actually, Mam, you know that there are currently no criminals in the empire since our cri rate is zero percent. But we have more than thirty thousand policen in our country. That is why he is demanding to reduce the number of policen and their salaries. Since the policen are currently just lazily receiving their salaries. Since they have nothing to do." Rena said, "He was saying that it is a waste of money and we should reduce their numbers and salaries and invest in other sectors"
"I think he's right about that," Elizabeth said.
"There's no cri in the Empire at the mont. Because no one would go against the Emperor and break the law. So we don't need to have such a large police force in this situation."
Elizabeth kept thinking about this. She knew that the role of the police force was essential in maintaining security and order, but the current situation was different. The lack of cri and the strength of law and order had called their activities into question.
"Tell the Finance Minister, I'm ready to discuss this with him."
Rena nodded. "Of course, Mam. I'll let him know."
Elizabeth saw the city outside the car window. The people of the city, walking along the busy streets, had no fear or anxiety. It was a peaceful society, where everyone lived safely.
The car continued to move towards the city center.
