'Edwan, you will only drag this country into the Abyss!'

'Freedom and democracy, who doesn't know about the ideals of freedom and democracy? But the powerful regime in the Milky Way is the Empire! We are just the Empire's outstretched appendage in this border region, being able to support a population of over a billion is already our limit, what else do you want to do? What else can you do? If you announce the reform of Wind today, the Empire's fleet can have its cannons pointed at your head in just six Galaxy Time!'

'You have greatly disappointed me, Edwan, leave... leave the Imperial Palace, do not appear before me!'

'Wind does not need an emperor like you!'

'Edwan, you understand these things, you clearly have the ability to do these things.'

'No one can save this country, Edwan, not you, and not me.'

'Edwan, I'm very disappointed in you...'

…

"Father!"

Edwan suddenly opened his eyes, sitting on the sofa and slightly panting.

He frowned hard, trying to alleviate the side effects of the stimulants — a mild headache.

Nearby, high-speed footsteps approached, and Guina walked over quickly.

The tightly drawn curtains opened in sync, and the filtered morning light spilled into his spacious and ancient office, highlighting a faint dust.

Receiving the warm water brought over by Miss Guina, Edwan took two sips, feeling the pressure of Guina's small hands kneading his trapezius muscles.

"Where is the Empire fleet now?"

"It will take another seventy minutes to arrive, you have slept for less than fifty minutes."

Guina asked:

"The boss has sent a message inquiring about your opinion, whether to inject you with a coma serum, thus feigning illness to avoid the potential trouble from the Empire."

"Coma serum?" Edwan laughed, "Is Ming trying to get me some good sleep?"

Guina laughed, "There might be some consideration for that."

Edwan raised his hand to feel the back of his head, marveling, "It's amazing, did they really implant the anti-scan chip in me? I don't have any wounds at all."

"We used the latest technology for you, Your Majesty... Do you allow the injection of the coma serum?"

Edwan thought carefully.

He whispered, "Bring the coma serum, see how the situation unfolds later. If they meet me on the ground, then I have nothing to worry about, my concern is that they will make me board their ship."

"That is definitely not an acceptable situation," Guina said, "That would be too dangerous for you."

"And for you, Guina."

Edwan turned his head to look at Guina, smiled and said, "Compared to me, you are the one who should avoid the presence of the Sherman Empire delegation most, don't forget, you said it yourself, you're Unit One."

Terminator assassination group.

Guina slightly frowned.

Edwan said, "You also need to consider the opinion of me, the Emperor, if you get exposed, that would be the greatest catastrophe for Wind."

"Hmm, I will be careful."

"I will go to see her... help me prepare an outfit, and gather the officials to prepare to welcome the delegation."

Edwan gave a few simple instructions and then turned to walk towards the lounge.

The girlfriend who waited until late last night was still asleep at this moment.

Edwan tiptoed to the bedside and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Hmm... Edwan, are you coming to rest now..."

"There are still some official matters, you keep sleeping, sorry, I am still too busy."

"Mmm, okay."

The girlfriend's two lotus arms wrapped around Edwan's neck, seemingly unwilling to let Edwan leave, but she quickly fell back asleep, and Edwan somewhat struggled to free himself from her embrace.

Was her strength too great, or was he too frail?

The always sleep-deprived Edwan, His Majesty, fell into deep thought.

The door of the lounge was gently pushed open by Guina, with Guina frowning and looking at Edwan, her eyes carried a hint of contemplation.

Edwan motioned her to be silent and quickly left the lounge.

"What's wrong?"

"There's a problem, near the border of the New Federation, Gudun Mah, leading two fleets supporting the Empire, has already been encircled and surrounded by the elite fleets of the Empire's expeditionary army... News from the front lines indicates that secret troops have entered Gudun Mah's flagship, Gudun Mah may have been coerced."

Edwan instinctively clenched his fists.

"The fleet supporting the Empire, turned around to be encircled and surrounded by the Empire's elite fleet?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you heard it right."

"They don't care about face at all!" Edwan cursed, pacing back and forth, then forced himself to calm down, "What did your boss say?"

"The boss tells you to immediately inject the coma serum, as for Gudun Mah, he will try to rescue him.

The Empire won't directly attack its own vassal states, it would destroy their credibility with the vassal states there.

This is the boss's exact words."

Miss Guina quickly said:

"But as long as the Empire assigns some charges to our officers, like collusion, we will be very passive, Gudun Mah's record is quite dirty."

"What can he think of in the expeditionary army, he cannot expose... he absolutely cannot expose..."

Edwan tightly pressed his lips:

"Reply to your boss for me, asking him to definitely not expose himself, here we can handle the Empire's aggression one hundred percent.

The current situation of Wind was hard-earned, ask him to maintain rational thinking."

"Yes."

"This Luna," Edwan sneered, "indeed comes with ill intentions, let General Leon lead the fleet to surround them, do not interfere with them, just apply pressure to them, if they attack, then counterattack in self-defense... Never mind, don't surround, just deploy the ships on the periphery to apply pressure, that's enough."

Guina immediately closed her eyes and began sending messages out.
