"Your majesty... King-Father Lucius had already arrived, and is currently waiting for you outside." "Thank you, Betsy"

"_"

Apart from giving briefings for those meetings, today, Landon also had to attend to some matters in King's Landing.

5 days ago, the head military soldiers there had all requested to have a meeting with him and Lucius.

It was about safety.

He swiftly walked out of one of the castle buildings and got into Lucius' car.

'Bam!'

"How did it go?" Lucius asked, with one hand on his steering wheel... and the other on the joystick.

"They should be fine for now.... but it's no biggy since we'll re-address their plan of action 2 days from now," Landon said while wearing his seatbelt.

"Hmm..... we still have time.

But for now, let me give you a brief summary of what's being going on!"

'Vrrrrrmmmmmm!!!!"

As Lucius spoke, he began to drive away as if he was on some sort of race.

Landon held onto the car and couldn't help but pray silently in his heart.

If the system didn't succeed in obliterating him, then for sure..... Lucius would definitely be the next to kill him with the way he was driving.

It wasn't so much the speed that was Landon's problem.

Nope!... that wasn't the main issue here.

The real problem was that Lucius would cut in ridiculously narrow bends and corners..... as if he were in a James Bond movie.

What the hell?

'Vrrmmmmmmmm!'

"Boy..... what's wrong with you.... are you sick?

Hehehheeheh... since you're being so quiet, then that means that you're fine right?" Lucius said, with a mischievous smile on his face.

"You're definitely doing it on purpose aren't you!!" Landon glowered while trying to hold onto his dear life.

As for Lucius, he said nothing.....and even began to whistle happily.

.

"Alright, brat!.... let's talk about the situation down there.

You see.... while you've been moving in and out of Baymard for these missions, the roads leaving Baymard have become increasingly dangerous.

With more and more peasants walking on foot or even travelling by horse there daily, the wild animals that used to live deep within the forest have started migrating and making their way towards the roads.

They would quietly stalk their prey, dash out.... grab their victim in a blink of an eye, and disappear into the forest.

The animals are also a major concern, because now... they've started camping around our secret glass towers in the woods.

And outer men are now having a hard time doing to and fro from there."

"So far, how many cases do we have?"

"In total, we've lost: 23 elderly people, 9 children, and 76 adults.

And if we pet this continue on, then 5his number might even multiply with time." Lucius said while smiling bitterly.

No matter what, they had to come up with a solution to this issue.

'Vrrmmmmmmm'

They drove for another 1 hour 28 minutes, before finally making it to King's Landing.

Typically, they would've probably arrived there after 1 hour of driving... but with the traffic, as well as the normal checks that took place when they got into King's Landing, they could only make it after 1 hour 28 minutes.

.

One should know that at the main gate that separated King's Landing from the rest of Baymard..... anyone going in and out of Baymard still needed to have a security check, even the bus drivers who took the visitors at the port.

The checks weren't that long, as when the vehicles stopped, the guards there would immediately hope on board and check on the situation there.

Of course, they also checked for clearance I.Ds, as only those who were soldiers and workers here in king's landing could drive vehicles in and out.

Anyway... Landon and Lucius had already shown their standard clearance I.D for entry.

But since they were going to the heavily guarded military building within King's Landing, even if Landon was a king..... he still needed to pass through the military checks for access.

They first started by getting past the first military gate, while showing their military clearance I.Ds to the soldiers there.

"All clear!"

'Vrrmmmmmmm!"

They through 3 other clearance gates, before finally parking their car.... as from here on out, every other check would be done on foot.

'Kichack!'

Landon quickly undid his seat belt, opened his door, and immediately stepped out.

'Bam!'

Thank God he made it here in one piece.

.

They did more than 4 body scans with metal detecting machines, 5 I.D documents and clearance checks, and all other necessary steps needed for entry.

And finally, they were done.

Stepping into one of the buildings there, a young man who seemed to have been standing there for white some time now...immediately walked towards them, and gave a military salute.

"Your majesty!...King-Father, Army General Lucius!..... Welcome!" The soldier said, with his chest all puffed out.

[*Lucius was known as 'King-Father'.... just as mother Kim was known as 'Queen Mother'.

And just because the men didn't want to overlook Lucius' position as Army General, they usually said both titles all at once.

As for the police officers, since Lucius was also the Chief of Police... they called him Chief of Police, King-Father Lucius instead.

It was a long-ass title, but they didn't mind it at all!"]

.

Looking at the soldier's badge on his uniform..... Landon could easily tell what rank the soldier was in.

The young man was wearing a black military attire that had red badges sewn onto each breast pocket.

In Landon's army, the red badge was given to any soldier within the 'Officer Ranks', which were all those above the 'Warrant officer' Class.

And on the younger man's red badge..... was a symbol which signified what particular rank the young man was, within the 'Officer Rank' class.

The young man saluted Landon and Lucius with pride when he approached them.

"At ease Lieutenant!

Is everyone ready?"

"Yes, your majesty... everyone is ready, and are in conference room 7, Floor E."

"Good!

Lead the way Lieutenant!"
