　　 Chapter 97

　　 THE PALACE

　　THE CHANCELLOR ROOM

　　Aero look outside the window, his face is unreadable . Then he sighed . One of the earliest task he ordered as Chancellor was to summon Royal Physician Amy to his residence

　　He need to meet her . They need to talk about something and make clear some of the things .

　　But he got an unwelcome news from the messenger .

　　the messenger informed him that Royal Physician Amy has departed to Duvar to a.s.sist Marquis Dan a few days before Aero got out from the Underworld .

　　Aero look at the moon and smiles bitterly and said

　　'It seems we missed each other . Or are you avoiding me? If it is true that is pretty cowardly considering you are the one who kiss me . ' He said to no one in particular . But then after thinking it more, a smile formed on his face .

　　Because thinking about it clearly it doesn't seem she is avoiding him . Then there is only one answer why Amy would go to Duvar .

　　'She's searching for me' Aero said to himself and he could not contain his joy

　　If only there is other way to contact her . Unfortunately, he doesn't have her private contact . Contact information need to be transferred personally .

　　You can't give it to someone else to protect privacy .

　　That's the rule in the game . He wanted to talk a lot of things with Amy and confirm some things . He walked closer to the window and his eyes look at the moon and he sighed .

　　At night like this, even if it is a virtual night he was reminded of that person .

　　'I could not follow her to that place' he thought to himself and tears slowly formed on his eyes .

　　Aero was always an emotional person . Especially after that person is no longer here .

　　Where…should I pour all this filled heart that is full of missing you? It only keeps filling every day . Where should my heart go?'

　　It is because of all these feeling Aero move slowly and cautiously when it is about love .

　　He shakes his head and then the image of that person vividly appears in front of him, floating

　　The image looks like real . She looks real . She is wearing her favorite white one-piece dress, smiling at him .

　　Then Aero said to that floating person

　　'My doctor told me you are my hallucination . Trauma, the doctor said' Aero said looking at that woman floating in front of him .

　　No one could see her but him . He told his doctor he couldn't see her anymore . But that is a lie .

　　Because the doctor knows and his friend knows, seeing your dead girlfriend is not a sign of a healthy mind .

　　And Aero knows why .

　　Heartache . His heart is always in heartache . Because while he is looking at her and seeing her but not having her with him is painful .

　　But like a bad habit he couldn't shake off, he still misses her . So now, even now, he doesn't know if he is hurting . Because the pain is like a habit .

　　And like a bad habit he still foolishly loves her

　　And his heart ache… . . . just looking at her .

　　Then he asks the floating woman

　　'What do you think of Amy? I like her . But because I still don't know love so I can't get closer' Then he thinks about the kiss on the rooftop and he smiles'But if that is so, then why is my heart keep pounding when I am thinking about her? Why do my feet want to chase her?'

　　Then he looked at that woman .

　　'Amelia, why can't I just get away from this hopeless love?' and Amelia fly and phase through the window as she stands in front of Aero .

　　Aero tears flow as he tries to touch her .

　　But because this is born out of his thought then he touched nothing and feel nothing in his hand .

　　I'm haunted by you again and again and I just can't get away . This hopeless love hurts my heart so much'

　　'The day when my pain fades away, will that day even comes?' He asks himself and he closes his eyes . When he opens it back, Amelia is no longer there

　　Then he shakes his head as he needs to think about something else . He doesn't want to go back to that h.e.l.l .

　　Aero focused back towards the task at hand .

　　Right now the biggest issue in the court is none other than the issues of the conquered state

　　After conquering the Vetten state the court are now at a loss of how to use this land that they acquired .

　　It was a vast swathe of land but they couldn't just w.i.l.l.y nilly do anything with it . Vanheim is not like before .

　　If its grand ambition needs to be realized, then one has to plan from the very beginning .

　　The King then agrees to give this task to the courtiers in the court . More like he wanted to s.h.i.+ft the responsibility to the courtiers .

　　It is a wise move . If they failed, then it is not the King fault and his image as a wise king remain intact .

　　If the courtiers at court succeeds, then the people would praise the good eye that the King possess in choosing minister which will only enhance his image as a sagely king

　　And so in the court many minister, courtiers are arguing with each other on how best to use those land .

　　Especially the two biggest faction that exist in the Court .

　　Some argue they should use the land to make a half military, half agricultural troops . What is important in this plan is the military complex

　　The plan would also cultivate abandoned lands to increase the output of food in preparation for war .

　　The other plan is to use this opportunity to create a cla.s.s of independent farmers from the incoming refugees and tasked them to fully cultivate the land .

　　The refugees consist of prisoner of war and people who have come to immigrate to Vetten when Vanheim conquer the state .

　　There are many refugees from Asgaro that came here running away from the slaughter that happens in Asgaro .

　　The Anti War faction suggested that these immigrants will be given an amount of time to cultivate the land .

　　If they are successful, and contribute to the prosperity of the Kingdom, the land will be given to them . The soldiers can then concentrate on training and improving themselves .

　　They are also the suggestion of digging for minerals and cultivate the natural resources there .

　　Luvian state in Vetten is known to have many deposits of gold that could supply the Vanheim Treasury .

　　Yesterday, the n.o.bles and minister were all night debating about these issues concerning the conquered state .

　　What will they have to do?

　　They would confer, argue, make and break alliances and argue again until the critical moment arrived .

　　Then when all is said and done, they began choosing .

　　Two of them from each faction would be chosen to represent the different sides to King George himself who would then decide what to do .

　　Usually George handles this matter

　　Usually George would listen and then ask them question and each sides will persuade saying their stance is the right one .

　　Sometimes George would also summon them in the middle of the night and ask them to come to the palace to debate these issues .

　　It was quite an organized affair which is quite different how kingdoms are run in this world .

　　This is the influence of Aero and as such scholars and wise man regarded King George as an enlightened King .
