Chapter 178: Chapter 178: A King Has His Own Talents_1

After seeing Lu Xiang and Song Lan, Lieyang indeed felt a sense of homecoming.

These recent days, the hope of the people, the expectations of the ministers, and the various affairs of being a leader were almost crushing her, making everything in this city seem incredibly unfamiliar.

Economics, politics, diplomacy...

The phrase she heard most was, "Lieyang, you must bear the responsibility of this country."

When she was a general, she hardly dealt with ministers, and she didn’t know anyone in the Rebel Army. Now, every single day of her life was filled with countless study materials from the moment she opened her eyes. The ministers marveled at her learning ability and firmly believed she would become the best leader since the founding of the Twelfth Nation.

"The ministers say that the Twelfth Nation is ready to withdraw from the Neutral Country Alliance, but this will cause a series of changes."

While some towns have withdrawn from the alliance before, there has never been a precedent for an entire Neutral Country severing its ties with the United Government.

As the trailblazer, the Twelfth Nation is very likely to face various sanctions from the United Government.

For a country primarily dependent on trade economy, such a shift undoubtedly poses a significant shock, and now all of the pressure is concentrated on her shoulders.

Many nights, she considered running away from everything, until recently...

"Lately, I’ve learned a new technique. When I encounter a request I don’t understand, I just need to say with a trusting tone, ’Just go ahead and do it’."

Lieyang sounded joyful, boasting about her newfound capability like a child in front of them.

This nation now seems devoid of a future.

Song Lan took a pessimistic view on this development.

Because it seemed that he detected a similar spirit from Lieyang.

The citizens of the Twelfth Nation probably had no idea that their nation’s highest decision-maker was gradually becoming a slacker.

"Who taught you this technique?"

Lu Xiang frowned as she asked. If the Twelfth Nation were genuinely considering withdrawing from the treaty, this critical transition period would require firm leadership. She wondered why the ministers were allowing her to behave so impulsively.

Her law enforcer’s intuition told her that something was off.

"The Minister of Internal Affairs did. He has been the kindest person to me. Only he doesn’t bombard me with data and documents every time he sees me. He always reminds me not to exhaust myself, and he even approved my visit to you today. He will handle my afternoon tasks for me."

Lieyang continued, "When I returned to the country, I originally thought the citizens would accuse me of desertion. But it was the Minister of Internal Affairs who explained the entire situation to them. Even the hovercraft in the sky was his idea."

That hovercraft collected positive comments about her from the citizens of the Twelfth Nation. Every night, when she saw it after a long day of hard study, it gave her strength.

"The Minister of Internal Affairs is a trustworthy person, and recently the things I’ve been confused about have mostly been handled by him."

"So, he seems to be the person you trust the most right now."

Lu Xiang summarized based on Lieyang’s words.

"Of course."

Lieyang nodded, "He always tells me to take it slow, not to tire myself out. Once I understand everything, he will return to the background. He can take care of everything for me."

"He sounds like a gentle grandfather."

Hearing this, Song Lan seemed to be lost in thought.

Right now, the Twelfth Nation indeed needs a wise person to take the helm.

The Minister of Internal Affairs’ actions have substantially eased Lieyang’s stress, making him the most trusted person to the new leader. But can the powers delegated now really be reclaimed in the future?

From his many years of being a slacker, he couldn’t help but suspect that the Minister of Internal Affairs was encouraging Lieyang’s indulgence to control her, to make her a puppet.

The third law of slackers stated that letting oneself slack off was an unrestrained process. Anyone trying to promote this process and benefit from you is often up to no good.

As a newbie slacker, Lieyang indeed seemed not to recognize this. "Right, you also agree, don’t you?"

Song Lan knew that given Lieyang’s character, any profound warning would only trigger her rebellious spirit. Instead of paying attention, it would damage her trust in him.

"Right, you two haven’t told me what to do yet."

Lieyang seemed to value both of their opinions greatly.

While she physically and mentally resisted data and files, the people’s expectations forced her to study these subjects in which she had no interest.

This feeling was as if her life had deviated from its course, living for others instead of herself.

Faced with Lieyang’s question, Lu Xiang didn’t offer her opinion but instead looked at Song Lan.

"Ask him. He’s the brightest mind in our law enforcement department, always coming up with unexpected ideas."

If she spoke, it would inevitably arouse Lieyang’s resentment.

As on this matter, she held the same opinion as other ministers. Withdrawing from the treaty isn’t a minor issue; it would bring significant changes to the Twelfth Nation. In social changes, a leader must step up and shoulder the country’s future.

Therefore, if she were a minister of the Twelfth Nation, she would undoubtedly be one of those handing study materials to Lieyang, and she might even personally supervise and guide her study every day.

However, when she recently reviewed an education manual, it suggested such methods could often backfire.

"About this issue."

Song Lan cleared his throat, "The simplest solution is to bring back your father, right?"

The past development of the Twelfth Nation suggested her father was an influential and capable politician. Compared to the current Lieyang, he seemed to be a more trustworthy leader for voters.

As long as he underwent the "deworming surgery" and thus was no longer controlled by the United Government, all of Lieyang’s worries would be resolved.

Compared to the Minister of Internal Affairs, the bond between father and daughter is undoubtedly more reliable.

"A philosopher from Egypt once said that a king has his talents, a chef has his. What everyone is good at isn’t superior or inferior. Allowing a general to handle politics or a politician to go to the battlefield isn’t wise. Only when everyone fulfills their roles can the nation stay on the right track."

He continued, "Without a doubt, your talent lies on the battlefield. You’re the general most trusted by the people of this country, and that is irreplaceable. When faced with enemies beyond human comprehension, only you can protect this country from them."

Her talent in Spiritual Energy, and her sole survivor status from the Conceptual Armament research, were achievements that couldn’t be obtained through unending effort.

Indeed, the Lieyang of now possessed abilities that others lacked, and these were exactly what the Twelfth Nation needed.

Lieyang nodded repeatedly, "Right, right, I think I’m better off being a general."

"So, the biggest issue is... where on earth is your father?"
