165,
Behind all of this is Daniel's plan.
When everyone's attention was focused on this man, he simply pushed up his glasses.
"Well, let me explain myself." He said as if he had no choice, but in Cyclone's eyes, everything was arranged by Daniel.
As soon as Daniel was questioned, Lady White Snake conveniently appeared?
How often does this typical storytelling plot happen in real life, especially when Daniel had already raised the corner of his mouth before the door was pushed open?
In other words, Daniel knew in advance about Lady White Snake's appearance and even the good news she would bring.
If we analyze it this way, the news of the siege should have reached Daniel earlier. He just continued to pretend not to say anything and only brought it up after someone else asked.
And all of this was just to make his speech carry more weight. It was more effective to answer someone's question than to proactively propose it.
Daniel now was just answering, but the plan was like this. There must have been many things planned behind it, but when it really came to talking about it, he wouldn't know where to start.
Cyclone believed that Daniel's handling of this was excellent. It was different from aimlessly explaining, answering whatever others asked. This way, it could unravel the confusion of the ministers without him having to say anything superfluous but possibly provocative.
"In fact, right after His Majesty declared war, I immediately dispatched troops."
"Daniel! Are you saying you only took one week...?"
Stanny couldn't believe his ears as he stared at Daniel.
But Daniel raised his mouth again, and Cyclone wanted to say one thing.
Enough, Daniel, stop pretending, okay?
Of course, it was his turn, and Cyclone just had to silently watch.
"No, Stanny, more accurately, it was one day."
"..."
Everyone in the throne room was stunned, and each of Daniel's words subverted their understanding.
"Because it takes at least six days to get from here to the Cliff of Despair, the actual campaign time was only one day."
The original sin towers that couldn't be conquered for five hundred years were now captured in just one day.
"Plus, Lady White Snake's daughter can send a message over a hundred meters. Even news from the Cliff of Despair can be quickly transmitted."
"Tsk! If it weren't for Carl agreeing to help you, this princess wouldn't have assisted!"
"Haha, I understand. I will also thank Mr. Carl later."
After answering the ministers' questions, Daniel began to chat and laugh with Lady White Snake.
"Impossible... It has been snowing heavily for the past few days. A large-scale march..."
"Wait! Daniel, you didn't mobilize the army of Allen City, did you?"
"This? Those forces are meant to suppress the Iron Tribe..."
"Your Majesty!! Even if the Grand General is not here, you shouldn't casually mobilize the forces! Remember back then when the Grand General kept those forces to resist the Iron Tribe in front of the Prime Minister..."
"Don't worry!"
At this moment, Daniel suddenly raised his hand, making a gesture to attract everyone's attention.
"I know this, so I only sent eleven people."
Once again, Daniel's words left everyone stunned.
"Eleven... eleven people?"
"Haha, sorry sorry, I miscalculated."
Daniel laughed, a smile that seemed innocent on the surface but was actually gloating inside, a smile that Cyclone was most familiar with.
"A team consisting of ten members, led by the Wind Knights' commander, Miss Sonja, and one of the Four Lords of Allen, Miss Bettina, along with the champion Churchill... and a randomly found driver, a total of twelve warriors..."
As he spoke, he took a step forward.
Daniel walked up to the throne in the most natural way and turned to face King Allen next to him.
Facing everyone, they spoke loudly.
"Today, the two original sin towers that have not been successfully conquered for five hundred years have finally raised the flag of Allen City," they said.
Cyclone looked at Daniel, who stood beside the king. At this moment, he finally resembled an Allen strategist.
