In a mansion in Happy City that has been cleaned up and damaged doors and windows are vaguely floating out of ethereal and melodious singing. In the hall on the second floor, an exquisite tower-shaped instrument is emitting a rose-colored light, and a group of beautiful dancers in gorgeous clothes rise from the light. Their skirts are flying, dancing while leaving a golden light in the air.

In the center of the hall, there is a gorgeous wooden table with shiny polish. The table that can surround more than a dozen seats is filled with plates of food, including uniquely shaped sea fish, and land beasts with hooves and claws. They are of different sizes and various types, including stewed, fried, boiled, baked, and raw.

Other plates decorated with gold and silver threads contain exquisite desserts, and servants wearing bronze green uniforms of similar colors stood around the walls waiting for the appointment.

Arni, dressed in neat officer uniform, sat on a chair, listening to the elegant music while slowly tasting the food in front of him with a knife and fork. The room seemed to be filled with soft and hazy ghosts, swaying in the erratic light.

Through the window, you can see a storm blew outside. Occasionally, a few white light shot in from the tall and narrow windows, setting off the surrounding scenery and accompanied by rumbling thunder.

It’s not that Alni doesn’t want to fight side by side with the soldiers, but he has grown up in the sunny and spacious nest since childhood, and is not used to the claustrophobia, but he is not that there is any claustrophobia, but in that environment his condition will be very poor.

So there was no way, he could only hand over the command to the front-line officers and "sit in the upper hand" to control the situation remotely.

But the time away from the battlefield also made him a bit bored these days, and he even had to use this "uninspired" imaging entertainment equipment to cheer up the somewhat monotonous dinner.

When the singing reached a new climax, Alny put down his knife and fork, moved his right hand to the empty goblet beside him, and immediately a servant holding a glass of wine came over and poured the wine that was so expensive that most people in the empire could not imagine into the goblet.

At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly sounded, and Alni coughed lightly, and then a servant opened the door.

"Young Master."

An officer wearing an officer's uniform, in his fifties, with a gray hair but a very capable and smart person walked into the hall, with some traces of being wet, and then he handed the hat and military coat in his hand to the servant beside him.

This is called Sukhrab Chiff, one of the retainers sent by his father to assist him, and he is also his most trusted adviser. His previous victory was due to the other party's advice.

This man was once a regiment commander in the Star Army. He sat at the height of the rank of colonel less than 40 years old and served in the Goth Star Zone. However, because he offended a lord commander, he was framed and pursued. He had to take his family to the Great Vortex. He was then taken in by Arni's father. Since then, he began to serve the Morales family, manage their family guards, and provide basic military training for the teenagers in the family.

After all, their family is also a "soldier family", and they have to understand military knowledge since they are sensible.

Therefore, Arni's military mentor in childhood and youth was also Suhrab, and this person was also half of his master.

"Uncle Suhrab, thank you for your hard work, sit down and have something together."

Suhrab did not refuse and walked cautiously to Arni's right hand, and at the same time, the attendants also put the knife and fork and plate in front of him one by one.

However, he did not eat immediately, but instead asked someone to pour him a glass of wine, which was also his personal habit.

After taking a sip and putting down the wine glass, Suhrab asked the attendant to take out a small cloth pocket from his military coat pocket, then opened it and poured the contents onto the table.

In the thunderous sound, rose-colored crystals emit blurred light under the light.

However, Alni just glanced and withdrew his gaze. The precious gems or crystals were not rare in his eyes, not to mention that this was not a precious thing, it was just some industrial raw materials.

"Young Master, this batch of minerals is of high quality, and the Red Pirate obviously missed a lot of mineral veins."

"I don't understand why my father had to intervene in the mining industry so quickly," he said.

Suhrab smiled, then cut a small bite of meat with a knife, then put it into his mouth with a fork, chewed and swallowed it, and replied:

"Maybe it wasn't short before, but now it's different."

"Hmm? What happened at home?"

"Nothing happened now, it's about the future."

"future?"

Alni wiped his mouth, pulled off the napkin from his neck and placed it on the table.

"Young Master, this expedition is obviously about to end. The power concentrated because of the war is a huge cake, but it is obvious that the Supreme Commander-in-Chief of Soshiyan, as an Astarte, cannot taste the fruits of the final victory... So, a huge power vacancy will appear, and a war more intense than the expedition will take place in the empire. These wealth will be our ammunition. Your father is actively forming a huge network of allies. If you want to dominate the post-war political structure, you must have enough interests to distribute and promise. When these are transformed into reality, then it is wealth, status, land, and even army. Whether the Morales family can expand its influence from the Sagan Galaxy to a wider area depends on the period before and after the expedition ends."

Arni smacked his lips without comment.

"Why not get more glory by fighting for the Emperor? These look... boring."

Suhrab knew the young master's temper, but he understood that it was just because the other party was still young and Alni's talent and ability were not bad. At least the military experience during this period made him grow a lot, not wasting all his strength on women's belly.

"Haha, Master, glory needs to be matched with status. Just like this expedition, the greatest glory always belongs to Astart, because they stand at the highest point, and even within them, glory is layered. The glory enjoyed by the commander of the battle is always higher than that of ordinary soldiers, and the pinnacle of all of them must be the commander of the Supreme Lord of Soshyan... Master, think about those big-headed soldiers who are experiencing the tunnel. No matter how much they do, do they have any glory at all?"

Alny raised his eyebrows slightly.

"At least they have collective glory."

“Isn’t that yours?”

"Well... forget it, there is nothing worth discussing about this kind of thing. What are my father's plans?"

"The head of the family plans to win you the position of governor of the Badabu Galaxy."

"ah?"

Alni was really surprised this time.
