This will be very useful for slipping into Morrisen unnoticed.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She let her hair down and turned to face Ryan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He propped himself up on the edge of his desk and decided it was time to hash out the details of her journey.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me one thing. When exactly do you plan on leaving for Ophelia’s territory?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She answered him immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you’ll permit it, I would like to set out this very day. That way, I can return as soon as possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked away slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Though... I suspect Helen will be furious with me for cutting our training short...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She murmured that in a low voice, almost as if talking to herself in the middle of the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Helen is always looking for an excuse to pick a fight. I suppose she’ll be ticked off regardless.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan was going to respond to calm her doubts about Helen’s temperament.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was a knock at the entrance door with a firmness that interrupted the flow of the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he didn’t respond to the first knock, silence held for a brief instant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Alicia spoke from the other side of the door, maintaining her usual respectful tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your Majesty, I have something of great importance to discuss regarding the village administration.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan told her to come in, so she opened the door and walked to the center of the place, standing right in front of him after bowing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan asked her what she needed with such urgency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She told him that her visit was to deal with specific matters regarding the functioning of his current government.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now that you are the new king of this people, it is necessary to establish a set of new regulations under your command.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia explained that the situation in the village had changed radically since Ryan took control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are not merely a king, but an S-rank powerhouse, much like the majority of your closest allies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She continued telling him how that difference in power should be reflected in the settlement’s hierarchical structure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia knew they couldn’t continue operating as a simple refugee village if they wanted to survive the Church.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As such, you are currently the most powerful beings residing in this place. You have humans, elves, and demons under your command—along with a growing number of beastmen. This is an assembly of races that has never before been seen in any nation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a step forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Therefore, I want your most powerful allies to be officially established as pillars. Granting them formal positions will serve as a powerful symbol for the village.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How interesting. What you’re saying sounds promising, but what exactly do you have in mind?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He responded with a smile. He knew the decision to delegate responsibilities to her had been the best choice, and now it was the only way to maintain control without exhausting himself with minor tasks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I would like to propose that you appoint Mirian and Helen as your permanent personal bodyguards.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She explained that their brute strength and agility were the perfect combination to protect the king.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not only due to their immense combat prowess but also because they would almost certainly refuse any position that takes them away from your side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan agreed with that observation immediately, as he knew the possessive character of both perfectly well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I can’t even imagine the kind of tantrum they’d throw if it were any other way...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan also thought that Alicia had truly investigated them thoroughly to understand the personalities of the girls in his group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was glad that she took her job as an assistant so seriously and that she had the intelligence to handle those social details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Ryan asked what would happen to the other members of his group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Irina is the princess of the elves, and I believe she already has many duties to attend to. Elder Kenia is the most suitable person to guide her, which is why I haven’t included her in these additional plans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she paused, but stared intently at Beatrice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What I do have in mind, however, is that Miss Beatrice should be appointed as the commander of the intelligence unit I mentioned previously.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Commander?\" Beatrice murmured with a frown, her expression showing confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes. I have hand-picked the finest talents among the elves and the beastmen who have sought refuge here. Every one of them belongs to the assassin class and possesses a natural aptitude for stealth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stepped a little closer to the demon girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since Miss Beatrice is a high-ranking assassin herself and is remarkably strong, she would be the ideal leader to oversee their training.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Ryan, it seemed like a very interesting suggestion, but he thought about whether the other people would really agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I mean, will they follow the orders of a demon?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beatrice was uneasy and looked noticeably embarrassed by the elven assistant’s direct proposal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably she had never seen herself as a leader, let alone in a place like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can you even consider a demon like me for a position of such responsibility? I mean... I am a demon...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia responded with a kind smile and looked at the demon girl with bright eyes that seemed full of admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are... well... you are to be my lord’s wife, and that grants you a place of high honor among us. There isn’t a soul in the entire village who would dare look down on you for being a demon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia took a step toward her to emphasize her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Furthermore, everyone here knows that you fought bravely alongside my lord to save us from the Church and the lackeys of Demon King Rigal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Believe me, Miss Beatrice. Everyone here respects you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beatrice blushed deeply upon hearing that she was not seen as a monster, but with recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She simply nodded her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alicia stood before them, her finger on her chin as if thinking, then spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That is all for now, Your Majesty. I shall take my leave, as I have yet to decide which position would best suit Miss Karol’s magical talents.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, don’t go just yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stopped and turned on her heels, waiting patiently for her king’s next instruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, as you command, Your Majesty.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan looked Beatrice in the eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tell me, do you really want to leave today, Beatrice?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes... unless you need me to do something else first, or you want me to postpone it. I will do exactly as you ask.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ryan turned his head toward Alicia, who remained silent in the same spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you take us now to the portal that connects these lands to Demon King Rigal’s territory?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1137,"2026-06-05T15:18:53.248Z",1,"novelbin.me","62c9e594022b35e2632fdd1ecf45f07607525635fa059d0ef62eeb5a1ee65118","s-rank-harem-i-became-my-character-with-extra-co-chapter-114","s-rank-harem-i-became-my-character-with-extra-co-chapter-112",176,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fs-rank-harem-i-became-my-character-with-extra-co-cover.jpg"]
