Chapter 335
She read military books thoroughly, was good at strategy, had unique insights in military affairs, and could also handle internal affairs, diplomacy, and other work in an orderly manner.
It could be called all-around.
Almost everyone felt that as long as there was Sangonomiya-sama, everything would get better.
However, this young girl who was respected and omnipotent was now in trouble.
"Something is wrong, even reading military books can't make me calm down."
Sangonomiya Kokomi's soft words were soft and glutinous, as if they were a gentle breeze passing through people's hearts, carrying the incredible power to smooth people's emotions.
But this power lost its effect on herself.
At first, she thought her own energy was used up and she was in a decadent state, but it was not the case.
Because looking at government affairs, Kokomi had no feeling of boredom, more like being influenced by some external influence.
"Related to the Stigmata behind me?"
The clever Kokomi immediately thought of the reason.
When she was still in swaddling clothes, she could only recall a warm and extremely secure aura wrapping herself.
That aura was like a father, majestic and kind.
Although Kokomi didn't have a father and didn't know what the father's aura was like, and even her mother was because she was passed to her foster mother, the previous Divine Priestess.
But she thought that what she felt at that time might be the father's love.
However, after she was born, she searched all over Watatsumi Island and never found an existence that matched that aura.
For many years, Kokomi had gradually given up searching. Perhaps the father she hid in her heart who no one knew about was no longer there.
"But what does the change now symbolize?"
Not knowing much about the Stigmata, Kokomi's heart was full of confusion.
Don't look at the illusion of being omnipotent she gave on the surface, the actual her was actually a bit socially phobic, just wanting to be an ordinary young girl.
"Sangonomiya-sama, General Gorou requests an audience!"
Hearing the voice coming from outside the hall, the young girl with a faint sadness temporarily suppressed the irritability in her heart and said softly: "Please let him in."
After a while.
Gorou came to the hall with respect for Sangonomiya Kokomi.
"Sangonomiya-sama, this trip brought back 100,000 catties of iron ore, 1,000 catties of crystal, 100,000 catties of white iron ore, 1,000 catties of Electro crystals, and a total of 50,000 catties of various other minerals. They were not discovered by the Shogunate army. Besides that..."
Gorou reported the harvest he had on Seirai Island one by one, all in detail.
Sangonomiya Kokomi nodded slightly and praised: "Well done. In this way, the insufficient weapons and armor do not need to be purchased at a high price from smugglers on Narukami Island, which is enough to complete internal self-circulation. Thank you for your hard work, Gorou."
"No, it is my honor to serve Sangonomiya-sama. Everything I do is insignificant."
If it weren't for knowing his own personality, others would probably treat him as a real lick-dog.
After finishing the business, Gorou thought of what happened on Seirai Island and the person he brought back, and was a little hesitant about whether to tell it.
Kokomi saw his hesitant look and said slowly: "Is there anything else?"
"Uh, Sangonomiya-sama, it's like this..."
In the end, Gorou couldn't hide it, and told everything that happened on Seirai Island. After all, this was a big deal. He might not know the reason and consequences, but Sangonomiya-sama must have a way.
This brainless trust, but he didn't know how much pressure it brought to the young girl, who handled affairs tremblingly every day, fearing that a little mistake would bring losses to the Watatsumi children.
After listening, Kokomi's expression became serious.
"You mean, that dangerous man was brought back by you?"
"Sorry 337, Sangonomiya-sama, I... I was just worried that the stronghold on Seirai Island would be exposed."
The general who was brave and martial in front of outsiders now appeared stuttering and couldn't speak clearly.
Sangonomiya Kokomi fell into deep thought. Judging from the attitude of the person Gorou described, the other party didn't seem to have any malice.
Thoughts shifted rapidly, and the young girl made up her mind.
"Where is he now?"
"Uh, just outside Sangonomiya." Gorou felt a little guilty.
"Take me to see him later."
"But..."
Gorou was a little anxious. He was worried that if the other party was an assassin disguised, wouldn't Sangonomiya-sama be throwing herself into the net by going to meet him?
"Don't worry, it's not easy for me to have an accident. And since others have taken the initiative to come to the door, wouldn't it be very rude if I don't go to meet them?"
Kokomi smiled faintly, not feeling dangerous at all, but her gentle, water-like soft words carried a determination that could not be refuted.
Don't look at her as soft and weak, but she was actually soft on the outside and hard on the inside.
And intuition told the young girl that if she didn't go to meet him, she would definitely regret it.
The warm Stigmata on her back was still exerting its effect, making a thin layer of light halo linger between her hair.
Moreover, possessing the Stigmata bestowed by Father, she was not afraid of any assassin.
