Damian

"Ah-hem! Well, if you're offering, we have no reason to refuse."

"As expected, Damian knows what he's doing. Haha!"

"He really has a long-term vision. He's a natural-born leader."

The members of the alliance eagerly took the bait, worried he might change his mind. Although they felt slightly uneasy, they believed the benefits far outweighed the risks.

Despite the praise coming from all directions, Damian remained expressionless.

"If there are no more issues to discuss, let's end the meeting here. It's dragged on longer than expected, and I'm getting tired."

"Ah, of course! Let's wrap it up!"

"Everyone, let's stand up!"

Adrian grit his teeth as he glared at the alliance members joking around.

In reality, there were numerous problems piled up that could have been discussed. With ten territories merging into one, countless disturbances were occurring in real time. Yet, no one brought up any of these issues.
