My Magical System - Chapter 230

“Now, let’s begin.”

Eman announced after finding themselves their seat.

Dos and his squad were assigned to deliver the reports from and to all units. Well, since their skills fit for the task, Eman decided to appoint them as messengers.

Once his men gathered all the reports, they sent them to their leader, who’s Dos. Then, Dos would then submit all the reports to him.

So to say, the second squad, or Dos’ squad, was scattered all over to give and receive the reports.

Upon hearing his lord’s announcement, “Yes, my lord. First, the report from the thief. Here is the report from that person, my lord,” Dos respectfully replied.

Then, he handed him a piece of paper. Eman took it from him, then unfolded it.

He narrowed his eyes upon seeing the content. The dialect used was unfamiliar to him. But thanks to his super translator. It was no issue to him.

He glanced at Dos. “Can you read it?” He asked as he showed the letter to him.

“Yes, my lord.”

“…..”

“How?”

“Sorry, my lord. I don’t have the answer. I only know that I can understand it.”

“…..”

“I see, then let’s leave it at that,” he said, without the intention of pursuing the topic further.

He began reading the report.

Stated in the letter was the detailed report of the Goldenlotus family activities in the past days. Part of it was the people who visited the family and the exact time they arrived and left.

“Two mysterious people?” Eman muttered. It was stated in the letter that two mysterious individuals visited the Goldenlotus manor a few days ago.

He read further as he was curious to know more. But alas, there was no more mention of them.

Of all the listed individuals who visited the mansion of the Goldenlotus family, only those two had no mention of when they left that family’s manor.

‘Did the thief forget to write it down?’ Eman asked himself in wonder.

Perhaps it was the case. But, who were those two? Wait, it stated in the report that they wore black cloaks to hide their figures.

‘This smells like something fishy is going on.’

‘Back cloak, huh.’

‘Could they be members of that organization?’

‘The burning something organization.’

“Seemed like that family was hiding a big secret.”

He muttered.

In front of him, Dos remained silent.

He then took a pen and paper, then wrote something on it.

“Here, this is for the thief,” he handed it to Dos. It was a mission of what the thief needed to do next.

Along with the letter was a pouch of silver coins.

Then Eman continued reading the other’s report.

“This is the report from Lady Tres, my lord.”

He took it.

He appointed Tres’ squad as Sol’s escorts. Though, they were hiding from the shadow and did not show up openly. They knew that Sol didn’t need protection as she could protect herself, but Eman didn’t want to put his guard down. After all, Sol was acting in the open. Who knows what kind of danger was lurking around. It’s better ready than sorry.

It was written in the report that nothing unusual was around her. Although some guys tried to get her attention, all of them didn’t have a chance to get near to her.

Before they could come near her, Tres’ men had already threatened to kill them if they tried to disturb her.

Eman gawked upon reading it. He did not order like that. It looks like they treated Sol like a daughter of a notorious leader of the mafia.

His mouth broke into a wry smile.

He proceeded to read the other reports. One that took his attention was the report from Nuebe. She was the ninth member of the 15 elites. Her group was assigned to be wary of any issues or changes in the capital city.

He appointed their squad to this task because of their sharp hearing ability.

It was stated in the letter that there seemed to be a problem in medical supply recently.

“Hmm…”

Eman touched his chin. Honestly, he also noticed it.

The last time he went to the market to buy Magenta Floramint herbs was several days ago. And he wasn’t even able to buy them because of no supply.

He also heard gossip about the lord of the village where the said herbs grow. The vendor said that the lord was found dead in his chamber. Because of it, the delivery of the supply halted for that reason.

However, since it was a gossip only, Eman did not take it seriously. That’s why he decided to wait for several days to see if the delivery of supply would resume. But, it seemed like until now there was still no delivery.

He squinted his eyes and thought, ‘This is strange.’

Based on his knowledge, in regards only to what he learned in the palace’s library, the Magenta Floramint is one of the main ingredients in creating medicine. So, the delay in its delivery would certainly affect the production of medicines.

However, since it wasn’t the only ingredient used to create medicines, the effect it caused should not be as dire as the current situation.

If the report written in the letter was correct, then something more serious was going on.

Heh!

Eman’s mouth extended to both sides as he felt something interesting was going on in the empire.

Regardless, since the report wasn’t so detailed, he could not decide to trust it or not for now.

He took another paper and wrote something on it.

He needed to figure out something first before he concluded what was going on.

After writing, he handed it to Dos, who was silently waiting in front of him.

Right at that moment, Little Sky came with a try on her hands. On that tray were two cups with steam coming up on their top.

“My lord, coffee!” She smiled cheerfully after saying it.

“Oh, thanks, Little Sky. So, Little Sky learned a new skill, huh,” Eman said as he took one cup.

“Yes, My lord!”

“Ah, you too, Mr. Dos. Try it!” She smiled.

“T-Thank you, L-Lady Sky,” Dos said bashfully.

‘What!’ Eman gawked for that moment. In his mind, ‘Oi, oi, you’ll get arrested by the NBI, you know!’

Though, he was half-joking only. He knew that Sky was like an idol to all the former Ratmen.

Regardless, when he tasted the coffee, he nearly got choked.

‘So bitter!!!’

“My lord, how is it?” Sky asked with gleaming eyes.

With teary eyes, Eman forcefully swallowed the coffee that was already in his mouth.

“I think I survive somehow.”

His reply was very inaccurate to Sky’s question.

While wearing an innocent face, Little Sky blinked her eyes while touching her lip.
