Chapter 167: Working Makes You Stronger (2/5)
After reviewing the documents accumulated during this period, Krober simply stretched his body, rubbed his sore neck, and began to think about the next plan.
"Currently, there is no need to worry about the construction work of the territory. With the funding from the Crab Claw Family, the territory will develop rapidly in just a certain amount of time."
Krober muttered to himself.
Now that he no longer has any worries, Krober will naturally fulfill the task assigned to him by the grand master - go to St. Goldberg to serve as the palace prime minister and prepare for war with the Duke of Edwin.
This is his responsibility and his mission.
Conquering the Crab Claw family is an important part of Krober's plan.
As for grabbing money, that's just killing two birds with one stone.
On the one hand, it can solve its own financial problems, on the other hand, it can also weaken the enemy's strength and prepare for the next battle.
(Well...I said yes!)
The affairs of Black Feather Island are still left to the management of Mr. Foster. This experienced old man will definitely be able to handle everything well;
The affairs of Amethyst Island and the other three new islands were left to Hewell.
In this way, Krober can leave with peace of mind and complete his mission.
After simply making these arrangements, Krober rode Griffin and flew to the Holy Gold Castle.
Needless to say, flying mounts are indeed very convenient.
In just a few days, Krober had reached the sky above St. Goldberg.
He landed directly in the gardens of the inner castle of St. Goldberg.
The Dragon's Breath Knights who were responsible for the vigilance naturally knew Krober. After all, the Dragon's Breath Knights had been established for so many years, and he was the only one who stood out and was favored by the Grand Duke.
That's right, the most eye-catching thing about Krober now is not his strength as an Earth Knight, nor his title of Viscount, but his title of "Babyface".
Because they really couldn't figure out what exactly Krober liked about the Grand Duke.
Isn’t it just that he looks better, has better talents, and has a stronger background?
Damn it!
It’s even more uncomfortable when I think about it!
The sun shines on the green lawn, and the breeze blows the fragrance of the flowers. The garden of St. Goldberg is still full of life.
At this time, Eagle, who was resting in the garden, sensed the breath of Krober and Griffin.
It flapped its wings, stood up slowly, straightened its front paws forward, stuck out its butt, and stretched out a long way.
After Krober landed, its eyes lit up and it flew towards Krober.
"Hey, is it Eagle? Hahaha, why do you grow up so fast?"
Krober remembered that when he first saw Eagle, its size was smaller than Griffin, even if it was later sent to the Holy Gold Castle.
But in this third meeting, Eagle was already slightly larger than Griffin.
At this time, the servant taking care of Eagle quickly bowed and saluted after seeing Krober.
"Lord Krober, His Excellency the Grand Duke sent an order before, asking you to immediately fulfill your responsibilities as the Prime Minister of the Palace after arriving at St. Gold Castle."
When Krober heard this, he also touched the forehead of Eagle, whose front paws were resting on his legs.
"Eager, you can play with Griffin first, I still have things to deal with."
Although Eagle was very reluctant, he did not want to disobey Krober's will, so he could only put down the paw on Krober's leg obediently.
"Be good~ be good."
He touched Eagle's head to express comfort, and told Griffin his thoughts through the spiritual contract.
Then Krober got off the griffon and left Griffin in the garden with Eagle.
And he walked steadily through the corridors and stairs in the castle and arrived at his office area.
Everything here is so familiar, after all, he once served in Fort St. Gold for a period of time.
During the time when he was appointed herald, Archduke Veronica specially arranged for him to have contact with various departments in order to better understand and manage the castle.
Krober gently opened the door and walked into the spacious and bright office.
The sunlight shines through the windows onto the wooden floor, reflecting faint spots of light.
There are no decorations inside the office, just some basic furniture and cabinets specially used for archiving documents.
He walked to his desk and sat down, his eyes scanning the pile of documents and letters on the desk.
"These are all documents I have to deal with?"
When Krober saw so many documents, he suddenly felt bad.
The servant bowed.
"I'm sorry, Lord Krober, I'm just a servant and don't know about these things.
However, I have already sent people to notify the various supervisors and housekeepers of the castle. I believe they will be here soon. You can ask them about relevant matters then. "
Krober fell into deep thought, and he seemed to have felt the miserable life he had been having during this period.
He took a deep breath and tried to calm his thoughts.
As a knight and a noble, he shoulders important responsibilities and missions.
No matter what difficulties he encounters, he must face them bravely and protect this castle and everything it represents.
…
"Ah... I really want to die!"
Krober felt that his belief was too fragile. After just reading a dozen documents, he felt that his head was about to explode.
"Will work also overwhelm my mental energy?"
Feeling his gradually depleted mental power, Krober was shocked.
However, when his mental power was almost exhausted, Krober also felt that his mental power had become stronger when it recovered during the rest period.
"Good, good! Work makes me stronger, right!"
One of the prerequisites for being promoted to Sky Knight is to achieve a balance between mental power, physical body and fighting spirit, integrate them into one, and transform fighting spirit into top fighting spirit.
At present, Krober's fighting spirit and physical body have tended to be balanced, but the growth of mental power has been relatively slow.
Although he also asked Samuel for a meditation method, his own training speed is not as fast as Krober's condensation of his knight's will.
And now, he can increase his mental power just by reviewing documents...
He didn't know what to say.
Krober shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind and put all his energy on work.
Pick up the documents on the table, read, sign and reply one by one.
Time passed by minute by minute, he focused on work, forgetting the noise and troubles of the outside world.
It was not until the sun gradually set and the afterglow shone into the room through the window that he realized that half of the day had passed.
Kroeber stood up and stretched his body.
He decided to rest for a while before continuing to deal with the remaining work.
As soon as he looked up, he found several figures standing at the door of his office.
