Chapter 1107 Acting
Chapter 1107 Acting
The next morning, when Shangluo went out, he heard the sound of cannons on the shore. It was a salute to welcome the royal army.
"Why didn't you call me in the morning?" He turned around and asked Phaethon while adjusting the buttons on his clothes.
"Who knew you couldn't get up in the morning? I thought you had something wrong. This is not your house. I can tell what you are doing by just walking around. Haven't you always been able to control your sleep?"
"I forgot to take the sandbag off before I went to bed last night. You know that feeling when you forget to take off your glasses before going to bed, and then you get them crushed when you get up."
“I found that there are not enough people here.”
"It doesn't matter. Next time I'll prepare an alarm clock furniture, an alarm clock that can wake me up no matter what."
"You can do whatever you want later - did you miss anything this morning?"
"Not really. My own body clock is pretty accurate. It's only a quarter of an hour later than my scheduled time, but I left a half-hour gap, so it's not a big problem. The worst that can happen is that I can just skip breakfast."
"So what do we have to do this morning? For example, do you want to make a speech? Or meet with the King of Ryukyu?"
The fleet of the royal army will come to Ryukyu this morning. Military operations don't need to be too formal, but this is Ryukyu after all. Although it is said that the whole world belongs to the king, and all the people are his subjects, this describes the relationship between the emperor and the princes, and the emperor himself is not here today. Therefore, out of the traditional etiquette, the royal army must maintain the most basic courtesy to Ryukyu - knock on the door before entering someone's house.
"There's nothing else to do this morning, so I'll just stand there. As for the people who come and go, they're basically all people I know, so it doesn't really matter."
"You are such a person," Phaethon shook his head repeatedly, "there is no such thing as a small matter here. Do you really know?"
"In this matter, it is others who should be worried, not me. After all, my mission is to capture Xu Fu, and other things have little to do with me - ah, but now that you mention it, I do feel a little troublesome. Although it is a trivial matter, since it is my turn to show up, I still want to do it to perfection. Ah, it turns out that work involving people is not easy to do, and you can't slack off for a second."
"Hey, if you don't like this, I have a suggestion. You just learned the Seventy-Two Transformations, right?"
"Well, that's right."
"Then can you transform other things?"
"It should be enough to have a token, like blowing on it."
"Then can you make something else look like you?"
"Eh? That's fine. You want someone else to transform into me and attend on my behalf, right? That would be so convenient. If possible, it would be best if someone could do things like this for me in the future. I don't like dealing with too many people, it would be a waste of my energy - but this doesn't actually require transformation. Apollonia can go in my place, we can share a body, and I just need to go and rest. But..."
[But I am not good at dealing with people! I have severe social phobia, don’t you know? Don’t you have better candidates? ]
"Yeah, I know." Shang Luo nodded, "So I didn't intend to force you. But Phaethon just said that we can find something else to replace me, which is possible. What would be the best thing to turn into my appearance?" "Hey, you actually have a professional in your body. She has been trained to deal with people since she was a child, and has been dealing with people every day in her past career."
[Who is this person? It’s really hard to guess~~]
"You want Victoria to go instead of me?"
"Great!" Victoria in the package cheered, "Hurry up, let me go! I also want to live in Shangluo!"
"Ah," Shangluo touched his forehead, "It seems that it really can be done. Victoria, can you do it?"
"Aha! I'm addicted to dealing with people! If I don't give instructions to others for a day, I feel that the power is not in my hands. My only regret for coming on vacation this time is that I can't bring my work with me. I enjoy directing other people's work too much."
"Wait a minute. Victoria, are you a little overexcited?"
"I'm not excited. I'm full of energy. When I'm full of energy, I can choose the most suitable state to work. I will choose the side of my personality that can best cater to and control the other party to obtain the information I need - this is professionalism. Of course, it's not the same here. Everyone here is an acquaintance, so there's no need for me to use a business attitude."
"Really?" Shangluo thought for a moment. Victoria was indeed very professional when she was professional. Her voice was different. Shangluo remembered that a long time ago, after the operation of retrieving the Golden Branch was completed and after Cybernetics and he finalized the cooperation agreement, Victoria held a press conference at the airport in Constantinople to announce the withdrawal of Rome from Britain. Shangluo made a brief appearance at that time and stood behind Victoria as the "Aurora Envoy" to listen to the whole process.
Although the process was very short, the message Shangluo saw was clear: Victoria was indeed a professional emperor. She had received professional training since she was a child, knew what to say and when, and had enough time and opportunities to practice what she had learned. What she showed was not deliberately acting polite, but the sense of "master" that came from within after she got used to court life.
She could act like a "master" in any situation, even if it was her first time. She was also able to express her unique opinions on anything from soda production to equipment design. This was not because she had infinite wisdom, but because she had more information that others did not have. As the pinnacle of Rome's mysterious feudal system, no one knew more than she did.
Shangluo felt that Victoria's current illness might also be related to this kind of training. It was precisely because she could selectively display multiple personalities that she could transform her personality into a kind of stepless transmission under the stimulation of phlogiston, and would switch between various personalities over time.
"So, this morning might be a little long, is that okay?"
"Don't worry, how quickly my energy is consumed depends on how important this matter is to me."
“Isn’t this ceremony important?”
"Objectively speaking, it is very important. After all, we are assembling a fleet to destroy a country. But relatively speaking, it does not take up too much of my energy. I have a lot of room to spare. I am not someone who would be cramped in any situation."
Because she can really stand in the clouds and see things that others cannot see.
