Is that correct?\" Trena frowned and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now all communications with Rein are handled by her, meaning this trouble needs to be addressed by her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, that’s my headache. I’ve already ordered Zetaya’s stationed troops to send out two elite investigation teams to that site to understand the situation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, after arriving in Antuhoor, Councilor Trena, I hope you can delay for a few days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a delay? That’s not too difficult; a grand welcome ceremony and various activities have been arranged in the capital, but the problem is, even if it is delayed, I estimate it would be no more than three days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vice Chairman, if there is still no news after three days, what then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sigh, hopefully, there will be news in these few days! If not, then we can only....\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At noon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mixed airship fleet arrived at the Federation Capital Antuhoor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rein looked down at the huge city below from the airship’s deck, so different from the Imperial City Tamriel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The city below, besides the Gothic spires with an aged feel, also has numerous square buildings with clean symmetrical lines, evidently built in the past dozen years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the distance, smokestacks from sprawling factories stand tall, spewing dense smoke straight into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, even in the Federation Capital, they hadn’t considered issues like air pollution, and were vigorously developing industrialization.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Rein’s keen eyesight, he could clearly see the streets bustling with traffic, both four-wheeled carriages clattering and steam locomotive pulling some kind of rail train.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, Rein felt as though he was looking at 18th-century London.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the airship fleet docked, a dense crowd was already waiting below to greet them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What followed was several days of grand reception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Rein, it was rather tedious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as it was part of the Empire Delegation’s overall movement, he couldn’t afford to be too discourteous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, he noticed that the beautiful woman Councilor Trena, possibly because she was the Federal head during the last visit to the Empire, was incredibly busy again for many activities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, he did not urge about the witchcraft matter with Trena, patiently waiting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside a high-level office at the Federation Congress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Councilor Trena, it is now confirmed that the exploration team led by Haleem is completely trapped in that Ancient Goblin Empire site.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, the two elite teams sent to investigate are entirely out of contact now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What! The situation is so severe?\" Trena’s beautiful eyes widened slightly in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, the situation at the site is complex. According to the current investigation, it’s likely the ancient capital of the Ancient Goblin Empire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now, the Department of Military Affairs is studying whether to involve the Federation’s Epic-level experts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alas, the main issue is that these all require time, but Rein’s side... it would be troubling for you to explain.\" Bertrand sighed and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand what Vice Speaker means, at least to ensure Lord Rein doesn’t become prejudiced against the Federation due to this matter,\" Trena timely replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, Councilor Trena, at least Lord Rein must not feel we are duplicitous and untrustworthy,\" Bertrand nodded at the beautiful woman Trena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Otherwise, the good impression recently sown in the heart of this young Empire figure could be prematurely lost.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he knew this matter was highly challenging, even though he regarded Trena highly, he did feel this was somewhat taxing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Speaking of Rein, the Empire’s Spies have sent the latest intel confirming that Rein has no ties with the Imperial Royal Family; he’s a quality target for us to consider attracting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand.\" Trena nodded; she had already made a decision in her heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon in the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rein finally received the eagerly awaited invitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An invitation from the beautiful Councilor Trena for dinner, the main idea being to invite Rein to visit her residence and dine together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it was a formal dinner, Rein thought about it and decided to wear formal noble attire to participate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By sunset, a four-wheeled luxury carriage was already waiting in front of the Federation National Guest Manor where Rein was staying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Antuhoor already had miniature steam engines, due to the noisy engine sound, they were mainly used for public transit. Nobles and high society still preferred luxury four-wheeled carriages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About half an hour later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rein rode in the luxury carriage arranged by Trena and arrived at her residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Through the small window of the carriage, Rein immediately saw Trena, elegantly dressed in a pale white lace gown, standing in the front garden of the residence, smiling, accompanied by two young maids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rein didn’t see other guests, and even Rebecca was absent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made him realize instantly that he was likely the only guest tonight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Rein, apologies, I should have invited you earlier, but the past two days were incredibly busy with official duties. Please don’t take offense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not, Councilor Trena; you are too kind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Here’s a small gift; I hope you’ll like it.\" Rein offered a fist-sized small gift box to Trena with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lord Rein, you are incredibly thoughtful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dislikes gifts, especially when it comes to Trena, who had a favor to ask from Rein.\u003C\u002Fp>",879,"2026-06-05T17:04:33.778Z",1,"novelbin.me","9bfcf84534a85b1413c14923ed7093c9bfce6dfdff4806ffb53b8ac4ce67f57b","wizard-starting-from-shoeing-donkeys-chapter-1439","wizard-starting-from-shoeing-donkeys-chapter-1437",1660,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fwizard-starting-from-shoeing-donkeys-cover.jpg"]
