I'M THE NECROMANCER KING
Chapter 122: First Meeting In The Twin Towers Empire

The first day Mavis led the meeting in the Twin Towers Empire, there was a new scene of the upper echelons who had passed the recruitment selection a few days ago. Unlike the previous meetings, the faction that once split into two sides that are always at odds, namely the Blue Eyes and Red Roses, it has now joined into a direct unit under the supervision of the new emperor's advisor.

Mavis also circulated her gaze correcting the new faces of the higher-ups. Then, glancing at Samantha, he nodded in satisfaction and sent a compliment to the servant via a telepathic connection, "Well done, you have done very well."

"Thank you, sir." Samantha replied with a nod, then sent a smile to her master. It was as if hinting that his master could rely on him if his abilities were needed again.

"Well, since I see from your faces it seems like a lot to ask me, let's just start this first discussion meeting" Mavis said in a relaxed tone.

It didn't take long, Mikaela walked up to her master and handed him a parchment tied to a red ribbon. Soon Mavis opened it and immediately found a list of the names of the upper echelons before her.

"Sean Maleeq, the new head of the military department."

A man in his thirties walked forward and immediately gave a respectful greeting to the emperor. It looks like the man has a large and muscular body, his face is quite rough. At first glance if the person who just saw it would be misunderstood and think he is a criminal, children who see it will shiver in fear like seeing an evil monster.

However, what most people do not know is that he is actually a good, polite, and honest man. Mavis realized that after several conversations with him about the internal state of the imperial military. His skill in terms of flattering was no less when compared to his shadow creatures, although it could not be said to be commensurate with the way Buster did it.

How fascinating.

"To what extent were the preparations to move the prisoners of the former emperor's family? Have you determined the exile area for them?"

"Your Majesty, regarding the prisoner who was previously a prince of the family of the previous emperor, Julius sent a plea to the chief officer of the prison. He insisted on speaking to His Majesty," Sean said.

A flash of memory brought him back when he first met the former prince. According to what Mavis remembered about the young man named Julius when he first entered the goblin dungeon, Julius quite left a good impression before him, regardless of his followers acting disrespectfully. And also after Mavis recalled it, a few months ago the man was even willing to visit the goblin settlement as a representative of the imperial side. It shows that he has the dedication and courage to be proud of.

"No problem, I'll visit him later. Besides, I haven't seen him in a long time, and there's a debt he hasn't paid me yet."

"Okay, Your Majesty." Sean retreated and re-entered the ranks of the higher-ups, giving room for the next department head to report the development of his field to the emperor.

"Continued to the head of the Public Supervision department" Mavis said.

The head of the department turned to face the emperor. His appearance looked much younger than the other department heads, around the twenties perhaps? The man also appeared cheerful with his handsome face.

"Your Majesty, until now the conditions in the capital have been relatively improved. The population has a degree of satisfaction with this new arrangement, especially among the lower middle and lower classes and slaves who have now gained their freedom" Zain said vigorously.

"What about their opinion of an empire that had been open for the entire race that existed on the continent to live in? As you know, regarding the goblin territory that is under my control. Do you think the residents accepted their presence? Recalling after many warriors and adventurers were killed in the battlefield earlier."

"Today the inhabitants have a correct understanding, as well as removing the grudge against the goblin race, he said, after all they had been compensated recently and the guilty higher-ups had been given proper punishment."

"Alright, start making public announcements to open up lines of communication and trade for goblins to enter the capital. And also make sure there are no disputes among the inhabitants, behave as usual to the goblins, consider them part of this empire."

"Well, Your Majesty can count on me on this task." Zain replied with a big smile, then retreated and returned in his line.

Furthermore, Mavis circulated her gaze back towards the higher-ups, now she discovered the good fact that they seemed to have calmed down more than before. In other words, they no longer doubted the emperor's ability to lead.

Their faces turned brighter. In their hearts they began to admire the emperor's talent. Although his age is still not mature enough, but the emperor is wise in ruling. Imagine, what achievements will the emperor achieve in the future? They could not wait to see this little emperor grow up and shake the eastern continent.

Talks resumed, the officials began to talk about the conditions of the development of their respective fields. A brief explanation at the core of his talk will lead to positive and negative impacts after the enactment of the new decree of the emperor.

The head of the Diplomacy Relations department also reported that several empires affiliated with the empire began to show resistance to this arrangement. The kingdoms were basically cooperating in revolt, they executed the entire staff of the diplomacy department that spread throughout the empire. For the list of kingdoms that began to show their nostrils in rejection, among others, the Kingdom of Pajang, the Kingdom of Malacca, the Kingdom of Bali, and the Kingdom of Pasai.

"Then, I will assign this duty to the head of the military department to form a siege force. Tell the nearest affiliated kingdom to join in sending troops, and just say for those who make a major contribution to this operation, the abandoned territory will next be theirs."

"Okay, Your Majesty." The head of the female department named Gwen nodded, before finally retreating and returning to the line.

Turning to the next department dealing with imperial financial matters, the white-bearded man with a warm smile appeared before Mavis. The middle-aged man was none other than the new head of the department, he gave a respectful greeting before finally delivering a report.

".... some of the confiscated proceeds have been fully converted into currency and entered into the imperial cash collection. Your Majesty, may I ask what will be done with this money later? Given the confiscation results have not yet fully reached the capital, while the imperial vault will soon be fully charged."

For a moment Mavis remained silent and propped her head with her hands leaning against the throne seat. It took some time for Mavis to think, then after gaining enlightenment she again looked towards the old man.

"Here I had the thought of making a moat around the fortress of the imperial capital. Could the wealth accumulated be enough to finance the wages of the workers later?" mavis said with a smile.

"A moat?" The old man was silent for a moment, as well as the higher-ups who did not understand why the emperor suddenly wanted to make a trench?

Unlike his comrades, Sean who is the head of the military department certainly understands the importance of a moat built around the capital fortress. It is not only useful as a sanitation channel, but also serves as a defensive structure for the fort.

Mavis inadvertently catches a reassuring glitch on Sean's face, immediately asking the man and then telling him to explain it to the other upper echelons.
