Chapter 72 : What Was Truly Valued

"No no no, Aelia, don't be hasty, listen to me."

Elashia quickly said:

"There's no rush for this matter now. We haven't even established this unit yet."

"Ah..."

Aelia's disappointment was directly evident.

Seeing Aelia's disappointed expression, Elashia quickly added:

"However, you also have quite a few things to keep busy with. My current battle plan is roughly like this."

"First, use this specialized goblin-handling unit to sweep through mountain ranges in various areas, thereby weakening the total number and strength of goblins, and lure the [Goblin Emperor] into a decisive battle with us."

Aelia nodded.

"Then what do I need to do?"

Elashia answered:

"I need you to go back now and write a procurement plan, detailed enough to include the weapons and tools that need to be used."

Aelia asked:

"When should I give it to you after I finish writing it?"

Elashia smiled.

"You don't need to give this to me. I don't handle military affairs."

"Wear this."

Elashia handed Aelia a shoulder insignia with military rank.

"With this, you can freely enter and exit the military camp. I've already spoken with the Imperial Guard Legion Commander. You can just talk directly when you meet."

"Oh... alright."

Elashia actually doesn't handle military affairs...

This was somewhat unexpected for Aelia.

Watching Aelia walk out of the palace with high spirits, Elashia let out a long breath.

Before long, it would be time to start preparing for war with the goblins.

Elashia was very clear—once the war with goblins began, the peaceful days of the Elasia Empire would be gone forever.

Next, what awaited her would be one war after another...

The next day, Aelia, carrying her plan, went to the military camp to find Cecilia's tent.

"General, I'm coming in!"

"Please come in. Her Majesty Elashia has already told me about the goblin extermination matter."

Cecilia responded composedly.

Looking at the iron can walking in, Cecilia wasn't too surprised.

After all, there were quite a few people dressed like this in the military.

"Then I'll get straight to the point about the procurement plan."

"Understood."

After giving Cecilia a somewhat awkward military salute, Aelia took out her plan and handed it to Cecilia.

Cecilia took it and carefully read through it.

After reading it, she couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

"Her Majesty Elashia mentioned that you were previously a high-level adventurer?"

Aelia nodded.

"Yes."

Cecilia showed an approving smile.

"Someone who can write such a plan probably knows more than just fighting as an adventurer."

Cecilia graduated from the Royal Knight Academy and was extremely proficient in both combat and military strategy.

Looking at Aelia's plan, she could say with great certainty: this so-called adventurer in front of her definitely knew more than just fighting and killing.

"Entering caves for goblin subjugation is indeed full of danger, and how to ensure soldiers' safety is indeed a headache, but using your method would indeed be much better."

"There's no need for us to discuss modifications. Leave this plan with me, and I'll send it directly to Lord Candice in a moment."

Cecilia gave full approval to Aelia's plan.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Have you done a warrior level test since coming to the imperial capital? How much [Qi] can you use in combat?"

Cecilia was somewhat curious about how strong this woman valued by Elashia actually was.

Faced with Cecilia's question, Aelia simply answered briefly:

"No, I'm just an ordinary person. I can't use [Qi]."

"Huh?"

Aelia, a high-level adventurer, was actually just an ordinary person?

Combined with Aelia's previous plan, Cecilia immediately understood exactly what Elashia valued about Aelia.
