The old capital.

This former royal city is located in the west-central part of the Dona Empire, and the climate is much warmer than that of the Northland. But the four seasons are distinct, and in the middle of winter, it is also very cold, with goose feathers and heavy snow all over the sky.

Chamber of the Royal Palace.

Inside the fireplace, firewood was peeling off. The temperature and smell from burning wood made it hard not to feel drowsy on this winter afternoon.

Oh, as a matter of fact, most of the people staying in the warm chamber are not feeling sleepy.

The only one who was sleepy was the little princess with the highest status in the audience, Her Highness Anrietta.

"Haoo—"

The little princess tried her best not to yawn.

At this moment, she was sitting upright on a chair cushioned with red soft velvet, resisting the drowsiness and the current lazy nature of her heart, pretending to be calm and unpredictable.

"An Lier...cough, I mean Your Royal Highness?"

Veronica, who was sitting on the left side of the discussion table with her legs crossed, tapped the table twice with her knuckles.

"Yeah, I'm listening." The little princess returned to the meeting with a slightly empty mind, "Continue with the topic just now."

At the end of the discussion, the young man named Aiden was standing respectfully and humbly.

He was originally an aide under Xiaowangnu, in charge of intelligence investigation.

Later, when Dorn was crusading Red Fish in the North, Aiden was ordered to "play a confidant" at a literary salon to seduce and divert the attention of the great magician Mr. Balthazar.

Aiden did a great job that night.

The little princess was very satisfied with this.

In addition, after that salon, Aiden really got the favor of Mr. Balthazar.

In addition, now that the imperial power has changed, the bureaucracy in the old royal capital has begun to reshuffle. Aiden, who was born in the north, wears the two big shields of the little princess and Mr. Balthazar, so he is naturally in trouble.

At present, this young man is already a hot figure in the old capital.

"As I said just now, some bureaucrats of the old king's forces are voluntarily resigning these days. Those who don't take the initiative, after persuasion, have the idea of ​​going home to retire."

Aiden spoke like this with that humble attitude.

The people in the meeting hall were all the confidantes of the little princess, so he didn't speak too vaguely.

The little princess didn't have much expression on her face: "Their request has been granted, and the severance fee will be arranged. The vacant bureaucratic position will be filled by our people."

"Follow your order." Aiden bowed, and while Nabi was recording the words of the princess, he took out another paper from the stack of papers on the table, and said:

"The next written request from Eaton Town was sent by Mr. Dorn. The content of the letter is about the reward you promised to give him before, Your Royal Highness."

Mr. Dorn in the middle of the empire established a regional guard composed of demihumans during the war between Dona and Tazan.

Although the number of the guards was only a hundred or so, they did an earth-shattering event——

Frontally defeating Tazan's 1,000-man troops crossing the sea to make a surprise attack smashed Tazan's conspiracy to open up a second battlefield, and made an indelible contribution to the stability of the Dona Empire's rear during the war.

After the new king takes the throne, the little princess plans to reward those who have made outstanding contributions during the battle, and Dawn is also in the ranks.

According to Anlietta, Dawn can choose whatever reward he wants.

Satisfy as much as you can.

It just happened to be a repayment for the life-saving grace in Golden Oak City, and I can owe nothing in the future.

"What did he say he wants?" the little princess asked, while unconsciously straightening her slender waist.

Veronica on the side secretly glanced at her best friend with a playful look at this time, without saying a word.

"Uh——he said, he said..." Aiden glanced at the written application, a little speechless, a little unbelievable, "That Mr. Dorn wants a completely neutral territory, similar to the holy city of Jebus , the kind that does not take part in any worldly affairs."

One thing to say, this request is a bit whimsical.

But the little princess still thought about it seriously, and then said slowly:

"It's fine to give him a title and set aside a piece of territory for him to govern. However, I really can't give him a completely neutral enclave like the Holy City."

For Anrietta, even if Donne made such a request, it would still be unacceptable.

Thus, the little princess began to make compromise suggestions like coaxing children:

"Aiden, you write back to him. Said that I can add a baron to him, oh, no, add a viscount. Yes, viscount, you can set aside a vast and rich viscount territory for him. But I can't let Dona's territory, drained from my hands."

Aiden didn't respond right away. He was reading the second half of the application at this time, his eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he saw.

The original is above!

What is this writing!

If I'm not crazy, it must be that man named Donne!

Even though he was extremely shocked, after regaining his strength, Aiden summed up the second half of the application in a professional manner:

"Your Highness, that Mr. Dorn doesn't seem to be claiming the territory that originally belonged to Dona. He said...he said..."

"what did he say?"

"He said he wanted to build an island on the sea near Silver Shield Harbor."

As soon as these words were uttered, everyone in the meeting room looked at each other in blank dismay, some of them were not serious, and even couldn't help laughing.

Build an island?

Is the island built as soon as it is said to be built?

Does that guy named Dorn think he is a god who can move mountains and fill seas?

It's crazy!

Allietta was also surprised, she beckoned and asked Aiden to hand over the written application to see for himself.

Looking at the application, the little princess fell into great confusion and shock.

That's what Dawn really said. He said that he wanted to build a large island in the sea near Silver Shield Harbor, and hoped that the Dorna Empire would allow the island to be born and exist in the world as a neutral state.

"Dawn doesn't look like a person who can make such jokes?"

The little princess thought so, but couldn't make up her mind for a while.

Veronica, on the other hand, still sat with her legs crossed, and said in a teasing tone:

"His Royal Highness. According to me, if that Dorn can really build an island on the edge of Silver Shield Harbor, it's not Dona's territory anyway, so why not give it to him?"

"Lord Veronica, this kind of thing can't be joked. If that Dorn really wants to establish a completely neutral territory similar to Jebs, he should at least give that territory religious meaning? Otherwise, it can't be accepted. Recognized and accepted by various countries. That Donne obviously can't do this."

At this time, a more serious minister in the corner objected.

"Oh, I'm joking. Why are you so serious."

Veronica waved her hands a little bored, and then turned her gaze to Allietta. But only found that the expression of the little princess at the moment was extremely weird and complicated.

Should it be...?

"Actually, Donne said on the application..." the little princess said:

"The island that is about to be born will serve as the holy city of the Aurora Church and exist independently of the world."
