Teaching Ace Swordsmanship

"Guards, summon the ministers. We have important matters to discuss!" Pattchulia shouted toward the door. Two soldiers quickly left the palace to relay the king's command.

Before long, the ministers and nobles of the Goa Kingdom gathered in the council hall.

The crowd whispered among themselves. The Goa Kingdom had enjoyed "peace and prosperity" for so long that a meeting like this had not been held in ages.

Pattchulia emerged and got straight to the point. "Two World Nobles will soon be visiting our country."

"C-Celestial Dragons."

His words caused an uproar.

"We need to prepare properly. We must hold an unprecedented welcoming ceremony!"

"I wonder which two great personages will be coming this time?"

"I have a daughter at home. She's sixteen this year and has grown into quite a beauty. I wonder whether the great personages would like her!"

Pattchulia watched the ministers and nobles below discuss matters with cold eyes. He knew they were all plotting their own schemes, undoubtedly trying to find every possible way to curry favor with the two great personages.

However, he did not expose them. They were still useful for the time being.

"Quiet!" Pattchulia said heavily. "The most important matter right now is how to deal with Gray Terminal."

"We just don't take the two great personages there."

"Foolish. How can we make such a mistake? It must be destroyed," someone argued.

"We can simply burn the place down before the two great personages arrive. Wouldn't that solve the problem?" said a man with a mustache shaped like the character eight. It was Sabo's father, Outlook III.

"Mm, not a bad idea." Pattchulia nodded approvingly. "But who will handle it?"

Pattchulia swept his gaze around the room, but no one met his eyes. Nobles like them cared most about their reputations.
