"Tia, this trip to the Mage Alliance may take several years. If there is anything you want to do, you can try your best to do it in the next three months."

After attending the gathering of the new generation, Sylutia's reputation spread rapidly among the Woodland Alliance. After finally calming down the emotional outbursts, she rested for a few days and received advice from the top management of the Alliance.

"Is there anything you want to do?" She tilted her head and thought for a moment, suddenly realizing that it had been exactly five years since she came to the Woodland Alliance.

Time flies so fast, and it's time for her to go to Scorched Stone City for an appointment to see how her companion, who has been absent for five years, is doing now.

However, I always feel that because of her identity, it may be difficult for her former friends to treat her calmly now, especially after the establishment of New Regas.

The girl raised her face slightly with her fingers, thinking about how to meet her old friend.

Two weeks later, a carriage slowly drove into White Cliff City.

In the palace at night, Sylutia and Musa were sitting opposite each other. Sylutia was wearing a white but slightly complicated dress, while Musa was wearing a dark blue palace dress with black ribbons.

"It's been two years, and Tia finally came to see me." Musa stood and helped Sylutia pour hot black tea, with a hint of coquettish complaint in his words.

It is hard to imagine that this is the normally dignified Queen Musa, but considering her age, such behavior is normal.

"There is nothing we can do about it. Musa, World of Shadows's round trip is not an easy matter." Sylutia had to explain and comfort him a little.

After that, the two talked about the recent situation.

"How is New Regas now? Is the governance going smoothly?"

"It's not going well, because I find that I still have a lot to learn." Musa shook her head slightly, brushed the golden hair on her chest with one hand, and then elaborated.

"First of all, the economy of many cities is difficult to maintain, and the fees of patrol teams, officials, guards, and other institutions must be paid regularly."

"Secondly, the output of food is not balanced. The country's main grain-producing areas are in several plains, river valleys, and other mountainous areas, which require caravan transportation and trade. Caravan transportation must consider safety issues. If the wild beasts and advanced creatures along the way are not regularly cleaned up, transportation and security costs will increase sharply, causing prices in remote areas to get out of control."

"Also, I don't know much about how to keep the bureaucracy clean. In the past two years, I have received many letters of reports, telling me that officials in a certain place are seriously corrupt, collecting taxes indiscriminately, etc." She sighed.

"Economy, security, and corruption are the three most difficult problems. There are also some smaller problems, but the impact is not that big."

After listening to Musa's narration, Sylutia nodded slightly.

"Thank you for your hard work. Solving these problems is indeed very labor-intensive."

"I happen to be free during this period, so I'll work with you to find a solution." After all, she was the one who helped Musa sit on the throne, so she couldn't just leave her alone.

"Oh, Tia really want to stay and help me figure out a solution?" Musa was particularly surprised.

In her eyes, Sylutia should be the elite of the Woodland Alliance. There are many things to be busy with, whether it is responsibilities within the Woodland Alliance, the need for self-improvement, etc., how can she have time to stay with her in the palace for a long time and deal with complicated government affairs.

"Of course, but I'm afraid I can't stay too long, maybe three months at most." Sylutia thought for a while.

"Three months..." Musa was a little disappointed, but it seemed pretty good to be able to stay with Tia for three months.

"After that, I'll leave it to Tia." Musa stood up again and bent down to thank the girl.

"Why are you saluting suddenly?" Tia helped Musa stand up, feeling that she was already a queen and there was no need to be so polite.

Musa didn't care about this. Anyway, her throne was given to her by the girl in front of her.

In the following more than two months, Sylutia accompanied Musa to frequently summon various ministers, as well as powerful city lords from various places. With this girl's special methods, many corrupt members of the officials were identified, tried and dismissed, and then more competent and responsible personnel were appointed as officials.

The department that was previously used to search for Cult personnel has now been reorganized into an agency to monitor officials. Considering that many of the personnel are members of Hundred-Eye Cult in the past, and the abilities and secret techniques they use are mostly from Hundred-Eye Cult, this brand new organization was named "Holy Pupil Hall" by the girl.

Now all the personnel of "Holy Pupil Hall" will accept her teachings again, and will be taught some methods for recording images and verifying their authenticity.

In the cold marble building, members wearing white robes and holding secret books stood, listening to the girl on the high platform teaching the secret technique of "Alien Star".

The girl raised her hand, and a card with eyes engraved on it appeared behind her.

[Eye of Truth](Alien Star)

Lv.1-Lv.2: Can detect small contrasting details and discover hidden clues

Lv.3-Lv.4: Can identify various details, disguised illusions, and discover hidden clues

Lv.5-Lv.6: Can identify various details, disguised illusions, discover hidden clues, and simultaneously transmit the scene in front of you.

After this starry card appeared, it turned into many scattered meteors again, and was printed into the Fate Disk of the members on site, allowing them to directly learn this ability, and then gradually become familiar with and improve the level of the ability.

"This ability allows you to easily monitor the situation in various places and promptly transmit the information you see to the rear headquarters through a special method to obtain support and authorization."

"I believe you will make good use of this ability to complete your mission." As he spoke, Sylutia's eyes slowly swept across the audience.

Compared with the quiet and shy nature at gatherings on weekdays, her eyes were bright at this moment, and those eyes filled with thousands of stars seemed to be able to see through the thoughts of everyone present, making everyone stand up straight in awe.

"Yes!"

Each of them has been carefully selected by Sylutia to ensure that they will not be easily corrupted. However, just in case, Sylutia still plants the seeds of awe in their hearts and keeps their mission in mind.

After seeing everyone write down their oaths and missions, Sylutia felt a little calmer, and then his voice softened.

"This is related to whether the entire country can develop smoothly and maintain justice and prosperity. I know how difficult it is to maintain people's hearts, but I still hope that you can keep as much light as possible in this country. Your victory is the victory of the country, and your glory is the glory of Regas."

"History will remember your determination and contribution, so please." She also folded her hands lightly in front of her body and saluted those who would guard the night in the future.

The air in the hall was very quiet. Everyone looked at the beautiful and flawless figure bending down on the high platform, and a faint emotion flowed through their hearts.

Most of them are just ordinary people who live their lives in a hazy way, but at this moment, they have a glimpse of some kind of more sacred path, just like people walking in the dark night who see the rising morning star for the first time.

It is neither blazing nor dazzling, but it shines with beautiful light, like the sun that has not yet bloomed.
