Gacha Sovereign 280 Meeting

The next day, Putri was invited to the palace to receive her reward as the king will personally reward her for her contribution.

Putri wore a white military uniform with a tight white skirt. This was not a soldier uniform, so even though it was called a military uniform, it was only for ceremonial things like this case.

Putri put a ceremonial sword on her waist, giving an extra gallant vibe to her. She was alone in the house because all of her family had gone first to receive her in the ceremony in the castle. Of course, there were some other family members, but she didn't have any good connections with them.

After all, she only had a good relationship with her parents as the other family members didn't even look at her. They only looked at the first young lady of the Makmur Family.

But because of all these things, they started to form a good relationship with her. Putri was trying to ignore them, though.

She went outside the house and got on a carriage. It was a noble carriage with fancy decorations on it. She never used this carriage as this carriage was her family formal carriage for the younger generation. Only the first young lady had a chance to use this carriage previously.

Not long after, she arrived at the castle. As soon as she arrived in front of the castle, Daniel had been waiting for her. He smiled at her and greeted her.

"Young Girl, I am sorry that I... no, we didn't believe you back then. If we believe you back then, we could minimize the damage on our side." Daniel apologized.

Putri only shook her head slightly, and she said, "No, Minister Daniel, I don't dare to accept your apology. All your actions were justified because the information was too absurd. And, I am only a messenger back then. I was not the one who got the information."

"We are thankful to your Younger brother as well as the yellow-haired guy. Sadly, we could not find them. But it is also your contribution to give us the information.

"At least, without you being adamant about it. Morgan would not take that information a bit seriously and prepared for it. Despite the consequences, you chose to give the information to us bravely." Daniel smiled at her.

"That's right. Minister Daniel. I have gotten another piece of information from my Junior Brother." She said. Alex surely wanted her to tell this information to the kingdom since he told her about all of this information.

"Oh... What is this about?" Daniel was astonished that she got another information. He didn't dare to suspect her information again. Especially if it was coming from her Junior Brother. He didn't want to repeat the previous mistake.

Putri gave him a piece of paper. She compiled Alex's information and wrote all the essential things in this piece of paper. She didn't know who she could give this information but seeing Daniel received her in this place. She decided to give the information to him.

They were walking toward the throne room, where she would receive the reward. Daniel's eyes were glued on the paper the entire time. Daniel couldn't help, but his jaw dropped when he finished reading it.

His back was covered with sweat as he couldn't believe there was such information. Daniel then gave the paper back to her.

Putri received it awkwardly, but she noticed that Daniel's hands were shaking when he handed the paper to her. She didn't know what to do in this situation.

"Young girl. I will inform the king about this. It will be better if you say it yourself. Don't worry. After all of those things happened in the war, they wouldn't doubt you anymore, you have my guarantee on this.

"There will be a banquet after this ceremony and don't go home yet after the banquet ends. I'm sure we will have a private meeting with the king after that. Don't worry. The king would end the banquet early if he knew about your information." Daniel said as low as possible.

Putri was taken aback when she heard she was going to meet the king. She started to get cold feet.

They arrived in front of the throne room. In a moment, the door would be opened, and they would come in.

Not long after, the door was opened as someone suddenly announced.

"Ladies and gentlemen. Her contribution has given this kingdom a chance to survive a disastrous war. Without her, we might not be able to hold such a ceremony. Without further ado, let us welcome Putri Wulan from Makmur Family."

The room was full of people. Most of them came from prominent families, ministers, as well as guilds. When they arrived at the front, Daniel then left her and joined the crowd.

Putri then kneeled on her knees.

"Your Majesty."

The blue-haired middle-aged man in front of her who sat on his throne finally stood up. The silence immediately filled the room as soon as he stood up.

"Young and Talented. It seems that the Makmur Family has two talented younger generations."

"Your Majesty overpraised me."

"Little girl. Because of your information, this kingdom has escaped from its doom. So, I wanted to ask you, What do you want for your reward?"

"This subject didn't have a wish for the reward. The reward should be given to the soldiers that fought bravely in the war."

"Good good. Such achievement but still humble. Truly a good seedling. I heard you are a disciple of the Ninth Elder, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Don't worry about the soldiers. I will surely reward them well. I will also reward you five million Spirit Stones and a Rank 4 Spear. I hope you can use the reward wisely and make us proud in Heavenly Sword Sect. This is the reward you deserved."

The crowd was surprised. They didn't expect the reward would be so great. The kingdom rewarded her for the greatest cultivation resources. With so much money, she could buy pills and any other resources.

The entire kingdom had a revenue of ten million a year, but they just gave her half of it. She couldn't help believe it. Just a few months ago, she couldn't say she was poor, but she wasn't wealthy either.

But after coming to Zwaka's place, she got Rank 5 spear, two Heaven Tier Wind Arts as well as five million Spirit Stones from Alex. Then she got this five million again.

"Thank you very much, Your Majesty."

"Alright. I shall conclude this ceremony. We will hold a banquet for you after this."

...

Not long after, the tables were out, food and drink were presented on the table by the servants. Putri didn't change a cloth as she was today's star. The uniform gave her a unique seductive aura on her.

Obviously, many Young Masters and Young Ladies tried to approach her, trying to make a connection. She had a fiance, so she didn't see anything from those Young Masters, and she was fed up by some rich Young Ladies.

She knew that they became like this because of her sudden fortune and fame. She just did some formality with them.

Princess Mega also came to give her thanks. She wore a one-piece long red dress. She appeared to be beautiful, but sadly her heart was toxic.

Mega brought two glasses of wine and gave one of them to Putri.

"Putri, you are the hero of the kingdom. As your friend, I am happy to see you like this."

"Thank you, Mega."

When Putri drank her wine, Mega let out a little evil smile. Sadly, Putri didn't notice it.

Because of the sudden turn of events, Mega couldn't do anything to Putri. But she also had a deal with the first young lady of the Makmur Family. Her plan might be found out if she decided to back down and get Putri's support for the throne.

The only way for her was to attack her at this time. She put 'something' on the wine.

Not long after, the king also came to the banquet. He talked to a few people before suddenly, Daniel came to him and whispered something in his ears.

She saw the king, Billy, suddenly had a shocked face. She knew that Daniel must be talking about that matter.

After a while, Billy nodded his head and whispered something to Daniel. After meeting a few more people, he immediately left the banquet.

On the other hand, Daniel found Putri. He said, "We will hold a meeting for your information with His Majesty and some ministers... So prepare yourself after this. I will lead you to the meeting room."

Putri nodded her head. Daniel then left her alone for a few hours while the king immediately called everyone to participate in a meeting.

...

When the banquet ended, Daniel came to Putri again. "Follow me."

Putri nodded. She followed Daniel to a room. When Daniel opened the room, it was not a grand room like she imagined. It was only a small room.

There was no decoration in the room. Only a big table and chairs.

"Your Majesty." Putri then wanted to kneel, but Billy stopped him.

"It's alright. This is an informal meeting. You can sit first and tell us about the information."

She then gave the paper to Billy respectfully and sat down. Billy's face turned to blue, and that made the ministers astounded.

"Are you sure this is true?" Billy asked with a dumbfounded face.

"He... I mean, My junior brother never lied to me."

Billy sweatdropped. One of the ministers couldn't stop himself from asking, "Your Majesty. What is this all about?"

Billy contemplated a bit. He decided to tell them himself rather than giving them the paper. Although it was worth it to see their shocked face, it wasted too much time.

"First of all. All of you should know there were two new pills that we had never known earlier, right?"

"You mean those red pills, Your Majesty?"

"Indeed," Billy affirmed. All ministers present nodded their heads. Billy then continued, "They are called Blood Pill and Berserk Pill. Both of them are sinister pills that should not be taken. And their origin is..."

Billy took a deep breath first. Seeing him like that, the ministers gulped down.

"Human blood."

When they heard that, they gasped.

"What is the situation for the cities that were attacked by the Zhou Kingdom?"

The minister who was in charge of that matter immediately replied. "Yes, Your Majesty. We have found something unbelievable. All the people inside those cities were found dead."

All of them astounded when they heard that. Billy put his palm on his forehead and used his hand to support his body. He took a deep breath to control his emotions.

"It seems that the information in this paper is true."

"Your Majesty, could you share the information with us?"

Billy looked at them before saying, "This conversation must not travel outside the room."

"Yes, Your Majesty." All ministers immediately nodded their heads. He told them to do that if the situation was dire.

"First, it is about the origin of those two new pills. They are made from Human Blood. In other words, those people who were massacred by the Zhou Kingdom were used by a blood source to make the pills."

"What!"

"This is ridiculous."

"How can they do this?"

The ministers became angry when they heard that. But Billy stopped them from their berserk. He also wanted to do that too, but it was not the time for that.

"Both pills are inhumane, and it will also lead the user to death. I have confirmed it from the people on the battlefield. They suddenly died not long after taking the pill.

"Then, it seems that Zhou Soldiers were using those pills to increase their strength. That's why they have so many Martial Lords."

"Do they not afraid they would be found out by doing so? They will be hunted from all influences. Your Majesty, we should tell other kingdoms and sects about this."

"If it is that easy, I'm not worried. Our current evidence is only this piece of information, and even if we sent the blood pills to Mount Hua Sect, we still need to wait after they finish examining them, and they might even suspect us for this, so I need more evidence."

He looked at every minister who then looked down, contemplating. Billy then said, "We will make a special investigation team for this matter, and Gillian will take the command."

"Yes, Your Majesty. This subordinate shall answer you with the best of my abilities." Gillian, Minister of Information and Espionage, stood up and bowed to him.

"This boy is truly brilliant. He wants to convince us, but because of our situation, we could only believe this absurd information where we should not normally.

"I will try to convince the leader from other kingdoms and sects, but with information, I can convince them more easily. So, I will leave it to you, Gillian."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Billy then looked at Putri. After all, this mysterious junior brother of hers seemed to have only told his information to her. So, even if they wanted to communicate with him, they would need to go through her. "If there is other information. Don't hesitate to tell us."

"Yes, Your Majesty."
