Jura Forest, Jura Tempest Federation.
Government Building, Rimuru's office.
Rimuru was writing on some documents when Souei suddenly appeared.
Souei: A stranger from the Chipon continent wants to meet you.
Rimuru POV: Chipon?! Mm, this continent is the kind to maintain cultural exchanges with the Magic Continent and economic exchanges. It maintains good relations with the various countries on the continent, so it's normal that they want to see him.
Rimuru: Bring him to the meeting room.
Souei: Understood.
Ten minutes later, the stranger arrived at the meeting room.
Rimuru noticed he was wearing a hood. Why?
The stranger removed his hood and a pool of black silk flooded the stranger's face.
The stranger adjusted his hair, and that's when he saw a face with a slender train and two emerald green eyes flecked with red. And judging by his stature, he didn't look like an adult. Between 13 and 15?
The stranger: Hello, my name is Jade Forest, and I am the Minister of Knowledge.
Rimule: Knowledge?
Jade Forest: Yes, my job is to document every discovery, as well as the cultural exchanges between the continent and this one.
Rimule: Okay, and you're here because we're a new country?
Jade Forest: Exactly, and my lord Shen Yuan sent me to explore your country.
Rimule: So you'll stay here to study the economy and politics of our country. And what do I gain from that?
Jade Forest: Cultural exchanges between Chipon and trade negotiations, if you're interested.
Limule: Mm, that's okay. I was wondering if it wasn't too indiscreet... how old are you?
Jade Forest: I'm 14. But don't worry, my age isn't a problem with my extensive knowledge!
Limule POV: He's a minister at 14!?
Seeing Limule's face, Jade scribbled: I was the only one qualified to fill this role since the previous minister retired, and everyone voted for me to be minister!
Limule: And also for negotiations and research...
Limule really felt sorry for this child, especially when he later told her he wanted to discover the world.
You don't discover anything behind a desk!
