344. Archon Redbird the Mage

"Can Baron Gallop's Territory hear me? Rothe Territory? Iron Mine, Salt Mine, the western border, and White Wolf City in the east?" After receiving definite replies, Redbird spoke to a huge Magic Mirror inside the underground Emergency Communication Room in Night-Kirin City.

"Baron Gallop's Territory, Viscount Rothe's Territory, all departments under the Administration Hall of Night-Kirin City, and all camps under the Gallop Tribe: today is the 9th. This is the first joint meeting of the territory in June of the year 997, and also our first time using the Mirror Hall on Padmira Mountain in Night-Kirin City to conduct a joint meeting. All departments, headmen, leaders, and knights involved, please remain quiet while others are speaking. The agenda for this joint meeting and all required documents were delivered to all attendees by cavalry yesterday. Next, Lannia will introduce the territory's recent situation!"

In the Mirror Hall of Padmira Palace, opposite dozens of mirrors, two rows of long tables had been set up. Landen sat in the very center, with the officials directly under Night-Kirin City and the headmen from the eight Gallop divisions seated beside him.

I never thought that after only half a year in this world, I'd already be holding my own video conference, Landen kept grumbling inwardly. Looking at Redbird in the Ruins through the Magic Mirror, he could not help feeling emotional as well. And I really never thought that the little girl who, three months ago, could barely throw a fireball properly, has now become the actual host of the territory's highest meeting.

Though he held a deep grudge against video conferences, Landen had to admit that this meeting absolutely had to be held. For one thing, the territory's last joint meeting had been in early May, before the attack on the Iron Mine.
