Chapter 147: Post-War Processing
"There are three streets that need to be repaired, and if it weren't for me and the knights, the other side might need to be repaired as well. β
"Fortunately, apart from the damage to property, no one has died as a result, and in addition to the physical fitness of the civilians themselves, there is also the reason for the active performance of the police boys, who need to be commended!"
After staying up all night, when the loss statistics came out, the maid who only washed her face and barely lifted her spirits finally showed a smile.
Knight Tosolo also had a relaxed smile on his face, "There is a young man named 'Timmy' who did a very good job, and after receiving the evacuation order from the lord, he immediately led people to evacuate the civilians in several surrounding streets, so this time we have no casualties." β
"Huh?" Cervantes looked up blankly, looking left and right, "What do you think I'm doing?"
As for what kind of 'evacuation order', Cervantes himself was puzzled, when did he give such an order?
Seeing the confused expression on the black dragon's face, the maid suddenly realized, and then couldn't help but laugh: "I'm afraid that this time we are also a blessing in disguise, this is an 'assertive' young man! Uncle Tosoro, it seems that you are also old!"
After a moment's thought, the Tosolo knight understood what was going on.
He patted himself on the head, "Oh, this kid is so bold that he can do this kind of thing!"
The Tosolo knight was smiling and scolding, and his eyes were full of appreciation.
The policeman named 'Timmy' was very knowledgeable and bold, and after taking the family of three, he and his companions probably took into account the powerful destructive power of the dragons, and directly 'faked the holy decree' - a fictitious order to evacuate the residents of several surrounding streets.
Thanks to him, there were only property losses and no casualties in this battle.
There is a good saying, 'If you lose your land, you will lose your land, and if you save your land, you will lose your land'.
If it were in another territory, Timmy would have gone to the gallows, and the maid had never said anything 'human-centric' in front of people, and Timmy dared to do it either because he was smart enough to understand the maid's policies and learn something from them, or because he had a strong sense of mission and justice, and would rather sacrifice himself than save others.
In any case, he is a good seedling, and it is no wonder that the knight of Tosolo is leaving quickly, he should have taken a fancy to this good seedling and wanted to make him his student.
The maid chuckled and said to the departing back of the knight of Tosoro, "It is possible that the other knights may know from the other people about the heroism of that young man!"
The knight of Tosolo paused for a moment, then walked faster.
The maid sprinkled a silver bell-like laugh behind him, and after a busy night, she finally 'kept the clouds open and saw the moon'.
She shifted her gaze to Cervantes, and the black dragon, who was wearing only a coat on his body, saw her and immediately opened his hands, "Do you want to hug?"
The maid looked at him with disgust, "Hmph, look at you, you're so dirty......"
Pulling together her somewhat dirty skirt, the maid sat down on the black dragon's lap and gently leaned against his chest.
"That's a good ......"
Cervantes also hugged his maid and closed his eyes to enjoy the rare quiet time.
"yes, that's great!"
The black dragon rubbed Serena's hair with his chin, causing her to let out a few chuckles: "Don't make a fuss...... Dirty. β
Wandering between life and death was already commonplace, but it was also the first time that Cervantes was so close to death, and at that moment, it was as if he could see the River Styx when he opened his eyes, and if it hadn't been for the timely arrival of the two bishops, he would have been washed away in the River Styx by now.
It was only now that he realized that he was so nostalgic for life and for this world.
The Black Dragon never keeps his promises, but he is a freak among the Black Dragons, so he cherishes the vow he made to the maid before.
'Only death can separate them,' he said at the time, when he thought death was far, far away from him.
But now, he doesn't think so.
"I want to break the covenant......" Cervantes sighed.
The maid opened her eyes in confusion, "What did you say?"
"'Even death can't separate you and me!'" The black dragon read out the passage in dragon language and laughed, "What do you think of this?"
"It's not good, it's clichΓ©......"
The maid leaned into Cervantes's arms and chuckled softly: "But I like it!"
β...... Let's go take a shower. β
"You're still wounded......"
"It's okay, it's already scarred, with the physique of the dragon clan, as long as you don't fight, no matter how strenuous the exercise is, it's fine. β
β...... Oh, it's dead!"
............
The three streets that served as battlefields have been completely reduced to rubble, but with the exception of those three, almost all of Wende City has been affected.
The aftermath of the battle, which was almost like an earthquake, woke up the entire city of Wende from the middle of the night, and a few stones fell from the slightly sturdy houses, and it is said that some people saw the old men of the aristocratic district running away with people, and it was only when everyone gathered together to chat that they confirmed that this was the truth.
The maid and the lord did not disappoint them, and the next day they announced the news, and it was at this time that many people learned that the movement of the lord last night was made by the lord during the battle with the enemy, and it was a little incredulous at first.
β...... But fortunately, no one died in this disaster, 'people and people lose their land, and if they lose their land, they will gain all of them', as long as they are alive, there is hope! O people of the Principality of Sorrow, no matter what, life is the most important thing, if the house is gone, you can rebuild it, you can make more money if you don't have it, but if you don't have people, then there is really nothing. β
"We will compensate for the damage to our property this time, so please rest assured. β
"The following is a list of those who have performed well in this turmoil and should be commended......
The clergy from Lolandal once again saw the 'advanced system' side of the Sadwind Order.
Under the co-ordination of the head maid, the city hall of Wende City is like a high-speed machine, everyone is a cog, when one department is running, other departments will follow, and finally the entire city government is in action, and the 'machine' begins to 'operate at full power'.
In just one night's work, the city hall of Wende City had already completed the damage statistics and compensation calculations, and had already completed the allocation of funds for the reconstruction of the streets and various compensations.
This is a sight that you will never see in Lolandal!
Lolandal would also have the Cultist 'martyred' summoning demons to wreak havoc, but even under the coordination of the God of Radiance, the red tape and bloated administration slowed down the execution, and the public would not know the outcome until four or five days later.
It is not certain whether this result has been 'modified', and concealment or misrepresentation is not uncommon in Lolandal.
After a short rest, Bishop Pelonandi recovered some of his spirits, and when he learned about it, he was even more determined to bring such an advanced and excellent management system back to Lolandal!
The matter was announced at noon, and in the afternoon Windtown resumed operations and production, except that the matter was discussed everywhere, as if nothing had happened last night.
In addition to serious merchants and adventurers, there are also many spies from other places in Wende City, many of whom have sent back what happened last night and today as urgent information.
They had a keen sense of what was going on from it.
Sad Wind Leader...... From today onwards, it is a name destined to be famous on the mainland!
