Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Wake Preparation
"We need a team to make sure the plan we are going to put together is going well and successful. This is a gamble and we must not fail at all."
Marina begins to explain what they should do in the future while Rena acts as Marina's secretary.
"In addition, I also need more extensive access to read the secret archives related to the Garlin kingdom. Without it, all of our future actions would be based on assumptions and that would not be enough."
Show Marina knocking on the table agitatedly. He was indeed the governor but to obtain confidential information, it was very difficult. Either Issac would agree or not.
"If the matter is calm. Here's a letter from Mr. Issac. Please read it."
Marina receives a letter coated by a brown envelope. There's a stamp from the palace chief of staff there. To open this letter, he slightly injured his thumb and dripped his blood over the stamp.
Letters from Issac are usually confidential. Only a certain person can open it. And Marina has been given direction by Issac before to do this.
The contents of this letter pleased Marina. He was granted the right to access classified information from intelligence that Issac had managed to gather. He also has the authority to form an independent team that he can use according to the needs of the mission until their main objectives are achieved.
"Okay, we don't have much time! Rena, I will go to the capital for a moment to find the information I need. Please help me to..."
"Fufufu.it's not necessary, Marina. I've done some preparation. Here, the documents you need regarding the current conditions in the Garlin kingdom. There's also some other information."
Rena took out a large package from her bag and opened the cloth that covered her. The pile of documents immediately lay before Marina's eyes.
Marina began to read one by one all the documents. Marina inevitably became amazed by the various information gathered.
This is helpful, but there is something much more useful. The next document he read was a list of scandals covered by their officials. Violence, rape, corruption, illegal slavery, etc.
"Good Rena. We have the 'weapons' we need. With this, we can advance to the next stage. Let's select the right people to accomplish this mission."
Marina and Rena began to devise the criteria they needed. First are those who have a grudge against Boabdil and his cronies. Second, they needed people who were familiar with the culture of the beastmen. Third, they also need traders and entrepreneurs who establish cooperation and invest their capital in the Garlin kingdom.
"Done! Since it is night time, it is better to save energy for tomorrow. Come on Rena, I'll show you the best room to rest in!"
Marina's mood improved. He pulled Rena's hand and showed her the room. They need to get some rest because tomorrow morning, it's all about to start.

"Sir, they were Moskov's imperial spies trying to infiltrate the palace and commit murder to you and your family. What are we gonna do about them?"
Ten people in all-black clothes were lying on the cold prison ground. They are conscious, but they cannot do anything because their bodies feel like they are being overpowered by something.
"Well, at first I thought about killing them all but I had a better solution. Let's use them as slaves for certain interests."
That ferocious young man's smile was truly very Something.
