Blue Sword

In the manor hall of Hearth Island, everyone sat down in their original positions.

Nora looked around at everyone with some emotion: "Seriously, we haven't been together like this for a long time, right?"

Everyone was slightly startled when they heard this, and then each showed a complicated expression.

"Isn't this because someone took away Fire Island?" Mia said sarcastically.

"If you miss Hearthfire Island in the future, you are welcome to come to Solomon City to find me at any time." Nora said with a smile.

Mia curled her lips, and then looked at Aske angrily.

In the past, she would have definitely said that Hearthfire Island is the property of the Cyan Sword and should be in the hands of the current leader of the Cangqing Sword—that is, me, Mia.

However, the entire Cang Qing Sword is actually Asik's team in name. Now that the former leader has come out, the legitimacy of her identity as the current leader is shaken, so naturally she can no longer argue with Nora.

"The main purpose of calling everyone together this time is to reunite and meet." Asker said with a smile, "Of course, during my absence, there were a few conflicts among the members of our team. I can also mediate them when I come back. ."

The girls all rolled their eyes.

What is the biggest conflict between us? Leader, don’t you have any clues in your mind?

Then everyone saw little Lilith climbing from the side of the chair to Asker's lap, then purring and sitting obediently on her father's lap.

"Mediation!" She cried sweetly, raising her little arms, "Let me, little Lilith, preside over it! First of all, it is the issue of father's ownership!"

"Shut up!" Asik slapped the little Lilith down, "First of all, it's a matter of war between countries."

"I understand that everyone here is not just representing themselves, but also the political interests of their respective camps. It is unrealistic to completely eliminate international conflicts by convincing you alone. But my idea is: after all, we are all members of the Cangqing clan. We are members of the Sword Team, and we have an old friendship and friendship with each other, so we can at least try to avoid resorting to violence in advance and a situation where both parties will lose."

Seeing that the girls had no objections, Aske continued to talk:

"For example, we can use Fire Island as a gathering place. We can spend one day every month to gather here. This can not only enhance the relationship between each other, but also represent the power camp behind it, exchange opinions and reach consensus, so as to maximize the chances of success. Reduce conflicts and differences. When necessary, I can also help make peace.”

His suggestion was novel. Prior to this, it was not that there were no diplomatic matters such as "talks" on the mainland, but most of them were "talking about something." For example, if they wanted to declare war, trade with the other party, or conduct other exchanges, then the leaders of both sides would make an appointment to meet. If nothing happens, everyone will naturally live their own lives.

What Asker proposed at this time was a more frequent and regular high-level gathering. Since it is "getting together no matter what happens," the essence behind it is that rather than thinking of it as a "state affairs talk," it is more like a "party of dignitaries", with more emotional connections than talking about business.

However, considering that everyone here is the leader of each other's camp, their attitude towards each other can largely determine the attitude of their respective forces, so it has to be called a "state meeting"... so-so, there is no problem.

Of course, even as faction leaders, it is beneficial to develop personal friendships with each other. The better we know each other, the easier it will be to reduce political and diplomatic miscalculations.

It's just that Asik made this suggestion, and his own meaning couldn't be more obvious.

The Cang Qing Sword who "helped each other and worked together as one" in the past can no longer come back, but he hopes that everyone can at least become friends instead of life-and-death enemies who hate each other.

No one can bring this up. After all, the conflicts of interest and hatred over the past six years have been there. If you ask us to sit down and talk, we will just sit down and talk, right? But Aske can.

Because he is the leader of Cang Qing Sword and the common spiritual sustenance of the girls.

"There is no problem with the Holy See." Nora, the current Saint of the Holy See, thought for a moment and then looked at everyone with a smile. "I think this is a good proposal for regular gatherings to communicate feelings."

"Wait a minute." Mia suddenly raised her hand and said, "If the meeting location is set at Hearthfire Island, considering that Hearthfire Island is currently in the hands of Nora, we are not at ease."

"Then I can give the ancient book to Aske." Nora said without hesitation.

"Well, I will be responsible for the safekeeping of Fire Island from now on, and I will never harm anyone. Do you have any objections?" Asker immediately took over the dispute.

Everyone looked at each other for a moment and said nothing. If you really can't trust Asker, who will sit here and negotiate?

"I also agree to have regular gatherings." Her Royal Highness Princess Eleanor agreed, "However, I cannot represent the Holy Solomon Empire. If it involves official matters, I cannot make a final decision and have to go back and communicate with my family."

"There is no problem with the Helsingør Empire in the north." Hidrifa and Medea murmured a few words, and then agreed, "We are not afraid of any threats... Just for the sake of Ask, this proposal can be accepted. .”

"There is no problem with Cangqing Sword." Mia said with satisfaction. Now that Hearthfire Island is back in Aske's hands, it's actually in her hands. After all, she can teleport to Aske at any time.

"There is no problem with the Eastern Solomon Empire." Theodora nodded. She had already expected this: In this way, having good relations with the neighboring country Shinra on land, and having good relations with Mia and others on the sea, is equal to the empire. The pressure on the western border's defense line was greatly reduced.

"Okay, we have reached a consensus on the first topic, 'regular meetings', and it's settled." So Asker made a decisive decision, regaining some of his former domineering feeling as the leader of the group, "Then, the second matter is..."

"Carve up daddy!" Little Lilith came out again.

"Go down and shut up!" Asik pressed her head down again angrily.

"But it is indeed a problem." Medea said lazily, "After all, everyone is greedy for your body, right? How do you plan to solve it?"

"I actually don't have any ideas about love." Asker said frankly. "Although it's disdainful to say this, I don't want you to fight with each other because of my belonging. This will make me look very unmanly and unworthy." responsibility."

"Isn't the reason why we are fighting with each other because you never give everyone a clear answer?" It was better not to say anything. As soon as this matter was mentioned, Sidrifa immediately shouted angrily:

"Ask! Since you know that you are disdainful, then come out and solve the problem like a man!"

When she thought about how everyone had been fighting over her since the leader came back, and the worst thing was that she hadn't even had a bite, she was so angry that she almost exploded. She stood up angrily, smashed the table and shouted road:

"Can't you just tell me who you want to be with? In the end, you just go with whoever comes to pick you up. I've been chasing you for so long but I still can't catch you! Are you a homeless little bear on the roadside? Can you please take the initiative and be a man! Even if you say 'you want it all'!!!"

"Okay, I want them all!" Aske replied immediately.

Girls:? ? ?

"Hahaha, just kidding." Asik waved his hand and said casually.

So the girls finally breathed a sigh of relief, but they also became slightly worried, fearing that Asike would give his true love's name next, and that name wouldn't be him.

Mi'er looked at Aske worriedly and was about to stand up to speak, but was stopped by his eyes.

Some words, after all, you still have to say it yourself.

"After all, this still depends on the opinions of both parties. I can't just say that I want it. It would be too disrespectful to you." Asker sighed and said seriously, "Let it be voluntary. If it is acceptable, it will depend on the final number of people. I will try my best to fulfill my responsibilities as a husband."

Girls:………………

"Wait!" Nora was speechless and asked in shock, "Asker, you mean... you want to start a harem? Marry all of us at the same time???"

"If I am only with you, and then other girls join forces to attack the Holy See, will you accept this result?" Ask asked her seriously.

Nora wanted to say "Of course", but after all, she was a saint of the Holy See, and she knew that what Asker said was indeed correct - this was the most likely outcome after monopolizing the group leader.

Previously, just because Shinra and the North had sent state inquiries at the same time, the cardinals were in chaos as if facing a formidable enemy. If the Dongluo Empire and Mia's pirate fleet were added to this, then the entire Holy See would really explode. Even the Licinius family would not tolerate their own whims.

But... shouldn't you be saying this? You are too disdainful of me, Aske, to ask me to accept this reality under the pretext of being good for me! ! !

The more she thought about it, the more she felt aggrieved. She just wanted to say "I don't have to do it with you" and then turn around and leave... But thinking about the child in her belly, her legs seemed to be sealed by the chair. Fa stood up.

The expressions on the other girls' faces were either shocked, disgusted, or finding it difficult to accept, and even the atmosphere seemed to freeze for a while.

Suddenly, a sweet little girl's voice rang again:

"Dad, let's open a harem, that's great! I'll have many younger brothers and sisters, right?"

Pfft. Nora couldn't help laughing when she heard little Lilith's innocent speech, and the awkward atmosphere that originally enveloped everyone was swept away.
