“It is not difficult to rebuild Troy City . In saying that, we will require help from both humans and elves . Transporting the building materials from the North to Troy City will cost more than transporting them from Hilles City . I am ashamed to say this, Your Majesty, but the North has not fully developed . Therefore, it is difficult for the North to acquire the stone and timber required to build a city . I have already sent someone to Hilles City to procure the building materials . After they have procured the materials, we will deliver the materials to the newest building location . The location for the newest construction is not far from Troy City . Hence, fundamentally speaking, we can consider it Troy City,” explained Freya .

As soon as I returned to the North, Freya began to discuss the reconstruction of Troy City before I even told her about anything else . During my absence from the North, it changed in plenty of ways . If nothing else, the path from Ling Yue’s home to the Imperial Palace in the North that was originally a stone path had transformed into a meticulously paved path . By the looks of things, Freya didn’t slack off during my absence .

Liu Yue was Ling Yue’s daughter, thereby making her an illegitimate child from Nier’s perspective . By logic, Nier shouldn’t have been able to accept Liu Yue . However, Nier absolutely loved adorable Liu Yue . Her affection for Liu Yue wasn’t the same as her concern for Daisy . In fact, she wanted to get rid of Ling Yue so that she could be with Liu Yue . That, in turn, infuriated Ling Yue . As for Liu Yue, she wasn’t fond of the random “human”, which was why she whined and ran to me whenever she was around a pa.s.sionate Nier .

Nier also couldn’t resist the allure of the future when she saw how cute Liu Yue was . She believed Daisy would be just as cute in the future . However, Daisy was just a little child at the time . She wasn’t that interesting when she was awake . That was why Nier, who overflowed with motherly love, directed her motherly love on little Liu Yue .

“I’ll entrust it to you, then . This time, however, we must instate a governor at Troy City . We must choose an exceptional and loyal individual . Additionally, we must ensure that we have full control of Troy City this time; otherwise, history will repeat itself . ”

Freya confidently patted her chest and proudly said, “That is fine . This time, I sent Alex there to work . Alex is a trustworthy individual . In addition, as a n.o.ble, he should be adept at handling management tasks . I also sent the guard unit under our direct command there . They will only take orders from you . I have put in place a reporting system . I guarantee such an accident will not happen again . ”

My two moms also paid a lot of attention to the reconstruction of Troy City . They didn’t show they were sad when Troy City was destroyed . Still, as Mommy Elizabeth said, she was dead set on ensuring the city remained on the continent . Consequently, when she got back, she immediately had people send materials to the location of the original Troy City . All of the va.s.sal states also started to get busy . After all, they had to take responsibility for materials, and they had to ensure it was the best material .

As per last time, a plaque with my name written in golden font was prepared . It was sad to recall the fire incinerating the plaque .

“By the way, how is Tanya doing?”

“Tanya…”

Tanya and Freya weren’t the friendliest by any means . Tanya’s mishap during the debacle was a result of Freya’s command, though . As a consequence, Freya blamed herself . Though Tanya didn’t express any sorrow, she couldn’t see at night on the trip back .

“Tanya… In my opinion, she cannot continue residing in the Imperial Palace anymore . That is not an emotional statement . To the contrary, I, personally, really want for her to continue living with us . Unfortunately, Tanya will be dangerous on full-moon nights from now . She will attack people if she is not careful as you explained . Would that not mean the Imperial Palace in the North will fall victim to the plague? Therefore, I believe it is best to send Tanya out of the palace . ”

“Where can she go? Would you really dare allow her to be out there in her current condition? If she stays with me, I, at least, have methods of maintaining her sanity . Who can she rely on if she leaves me? If Tanya loses control in the Imperial Palace, in the worst case scenario, only one or two people will be harmed . If she’s outside the palace, though, it might not be just one or two villages that are harmed . We have to keep Tanya by our side to control her . ”

“No, I meant for her to go to the North . The Northwest area in the North is where the dragons reside, correct? That is the residence of Consort Irina and who was it again? The dragons are a species with powerful mana . If we have Tanya go there to command a team, she can stay with the dragons on full-moon nights . It is just that I am not sure if the dragon race is willing to take care of Tanya on our behalf . Moreover, I do not know what you think about the idea . If you want to keep Tanya in the Imperial Palace, I can make arrangements for full-moon nights… With that said… with that said, my personal opinion is to seek the help of the dragon race . ”

Judging from Freya’s gaze, she didn’t find delight in Tanya’s misery . To the contrary, she was sincerely concerned .

Freya’s suggestion was feasible . There were no problems with entrusting Tanya to the dragons . Even if she did turn, she wouldn’t be able to hurt the dragons . The dragons could help her maintain her rationality using their mana . I would need approximately a bowl of blood, while the pure-blooded dragons would only need a single drop . The question was would Tanya accept that .

I thought Tanya would accept it . She was just that type of girl . She was used to loneliness and shouldering everything . After she learned of her fate, she’d probably take the initiative to request permission to leave even if I didn’t tell her to go . She wouldn’t endanger others . She’d stay strong despite her own suffering . She wouldn’t tell anyone .

“That will work . I’ll speak to Tanya . We must take her wish into account . If she wants to stay with me, I’ll allow her to stay even if there’s a greater risk . I can’t send her away due to my own mistake . Tanya is important to me . ”

“I know . ”

Freya seemed to be slightly unhappy about my last statement . Hence, she resolutely ended the topic . Then, she added, “In that case, we must discuss our biggest problem next . Your Majesty, we need an army . ”
