Inheritor Of Magic: The Magi King-Chapter 797 Face The Music
Chapter 797 797 Face The Music
Wolfe decided that light meditation was a better option than sleep. If he was waiting for them to return, he might be able to calm everyone, but if they came back to find him sleeping while they were working, he would be in real trouble.
But when the witches came into the room, they were in a surprisingly good mood. They weren't laughing and joking, they looked exhausted from a long day and night of negotiations with the village leaders, but they weren't in a terrible mood, even when they saw Wolfe in the room with a nervous smile on his face.
"So, do you realize what your mistake was?" Cassie asked.
"I may have forgotten to ask anyone for input before making a larger than usual decision." Wolfe agreed.
"Is that what this was? The complete revamp of a continent's currency system was a larger than usual decision that you made in the heat of the moment while you were talking to Priya about the future trade arrangements between the Covens and the Frozen Wastes?" She asked.
"When you put it that way, it sounds much more dramatic than it did in my head." Wolfe replied.
Ella smirked at him, but hid it from Cassie, who was definitely annoyed with that answer.
"The only reason that I'm not losing my mind on you is because the Fae and Demons were already warned, and they are prepared to embrace the currency, so they will deal with the implementation on our behalf.
Each of the towns in the Fae Forest has a Fae protector, and they got the warning not long after we did, since you were passing through so many towns along the route.
We have a signed agreement with all the villages in the Fae Forest that they will embrace the currency as their own, and the shipments have already gone out.
Moreover, the Continental Representatives came back and instituted a conversion plan, whereby each village in the Frozen Wastes would get a number of coins per person in exchange for their stored Mana Crystals. Unlike Forest Grove, in other villages, they are held by the leader and used as necessary.
Of course, you probably didn't know that, as you never bothered to ask. But it is settled now."
Wolfe stood and gave Cassie a kiss on the forehead, hoping to slow her momentum before she really worked herself into a frenzy over his lack of responsibility. It seemed to work, and she sagged in his arms, exhausted from the day that she had. That definitely wouldn't be the end of it, but she was really too tired to argue with him right now, and Ella knew it.
She only had a little more energy than Cassie did, but she understood Wolfe's methods just as well. He just did things and hoped that they worked out for the best. It had to have taken an immense amount of magic to make all the coins and, cubes and cards that had been sent out in the last few hours, and he had done an outstanding job on that part of the plan, while he completely neglected the fine details.
"How about we go to bed now, and I yell at you later?" Cassie sighed as she looked at the bed with longing.
"Alright, just wake me up when you're ready." Wolfe agreed, before pulling her into his arms. (f)reewe(b)novel
Ella shook her head at the display. "You were supposed to be the one mad at him, but you're so tired that you can't even stay angry once you get into the warmth of his mana."
"Not my fault, I will get to it. Now, come to bed. If you don't the succubus is going to steal your spot again." Cassie replied.
Ella dismissed her outfit with a wave of her hand and climbed into bed beside Wolfe.
"She knows the rules, she only gets to fill the middle spot when he's not here. If he is, she has to ask." Ella replied.
They had to be speaking about Rail. None of the other Succubi in town would be so forward, Wolfe was reasonably certain. He should go check on the Princesses in the morning to make sure that they were being treated well and adapting to life in Forest Grove without any issues. It was unlikely that anyone would try to bully them, given their power levels, but there was always the chance.
Plus, there was Nimue, who was still quite small, and Wolfe wasn't sure who was actually looking out for her. She had been taking care of herself for years, but the plan had been to have someone bunk with her so she wasn't alone again, but he had managed to overlook that part of his duties as well.
Wolfe cast out his mental senses to see where the little half demon was right now, and found her in bed in the next room, next to the Succubus Princess, Dana, while Princess Carmine was one door down with Rail, and they were both studying something.
Wolfe extended his mind through the link to see what they were thinking about, and realized that the two of them were going through the Forest Grove accounting books, making sure that everything was in place for tomorrow's transition to the new currency.
Someone had already taken account of how many mana stones were in circulation, and had assigned a value to them, so they were making sure that nobody had gotten a head start and stockpiled the crystals to throw off the valuation.
It was definitely good to have reliable friends, Wolfe decided. They were prepared for everything, despite the fact that he hadn't given them any more than one day to prepare.
The bodyguards were mostly sleeping, but Risa was sitting at the end of the hallway talking to one of the witches from the construction department at the airfield. They were giving a late night update as they returned to town for their days off.
The production was up to four new cargo planes now, including the first one that Wolfe had assisted with, and they were ready to start adding more routes into the more distant human nations.
They were going to have a very busy day tomorrow.freeweb novel.com
