Zero no ambassador: my harem

The green-armored male, red-armored male, and human-appearing female all stared at Hao Tian. Three strands of killing intent mixed with magic stabbed at the outside of Hao Tian's aqua blue protective membrane, faintly hurting.

These three strengths were all at the [Quadrilateral Level], and all of them were close to the [Great Magician]. Fighting alone, Hao Tian should be able to win against any of them, but against two to three of them, Hao Tian wouldn't be able to win. Moreover, the strength of the Turtle, Whale, and White Dragon should be even more terrifying. The strength of the water elves was even more unpredictable.

"Understood, I'm going." Hao Tian bowed his head.

The Water Elf no longer spoke, lazily lying in the shell. The white dragon and the whale seemed to have been sleeping, and the turtle was now shrinking into its shell, with the green harnessed male, the red harnessed male, and the human-looking female staring at Hao Tian.

"So, goodbye." Hao Tian turned around and swam upwards.

Rising to the surface, Hao Tian swam towards the shore.

Lancer Ani suddenly chased after him from afar, the blue light of her trident surging in her hand.

Hao Tian's brow furrowed and drew his long sword, Dever, which surged with red light.

"Unreasonable man, suffer death." The mermaid swung the trident down, and blue light shot up.

Hoshi met the attack with a swing of his sword, the red light burning in the air and the blue light clashing together.

Not long after the two elements held each other, "Boom" caused a huge explosion in mid-air, blowing both Hao Tian and the mermaid out of the water.

After Hao Tian fell into the water, he turned around and swam towards the shore without turning back. After the mermaids fell into the water, they looked around and swam after Hao Tian. Hao Tian saw that the mermaid couldn't swim, so he rose from the water midway and switched to flying.

The mermaid stared at Hao Tian flying up and waved its trident to launch water elemental balls at Hao Tian in mid-air.

Hao Tian dodged in all directions, and dodged the mermaid's attack with his flying skills.

The mermaid chased after the shore and went back and forth in the shallow water, helplessly watching Hao Tian fly away.

"Irrational man, if you come back I'll definitely beat you down."

Hao Tian turned a deaf ear and landed a hundred meters away from the lake. Extracting the surrounding earth element and fusing out the Void element, he then used [Gate of the Beginning] to return to the Torristine Capital.

It was already night time, and Hao Tian suddenly appeared through the Light Gate, when Louise relied on Katria to sleep in her second sister's room.

Hao Tian looked hot, and wanted to enjoy the sisters. But thinking of the information he had found out, the desire subsided.

"You guys go to sleep first, I'll go find Anrietta for something." Hao Tian left from Katria's room.

Chapter 14 - Crisis Management and Rebuilding the Church

Late at night, Hao Tian came from Katelia's room to Anrietta's room.

Anrietta was awakened by a knock on the door, and looked shyly at the "night attack" Hao Tian.

"You're back, you're too anxious."

"Anrietta, something big is wrong." Hao Tian had no intention of lingering and opened his mouth to wake Anrietta up.

"What?!"

Hao Tian told Anrietta the information he had learned from the water elves.

Anrietta's face turned pale and very ugly.

"So, Hao Tian you handing over Miss Water Sprite will make the Water Sprite change her mind?"

Anrietta asked shakily.

Hao Tian's face was ugly.

"No, the Water Spirit has saved me several times so far, I won't betray her. Besides, the Water Spirit is going to do something, so how can she be swayed by a billet."

"Then what should we do?" Anrietta was all out of ideas.

Hoshi sighed, "Anyway, let's get the ministers first. We'll go to the Great Hall and discuss."

"Got it." Anrietta got up and dressed.

The team of musket maids rode with Anrietta's orders to the residences of the various ministers of the royal capital, waking up the sleeping ministers and summoning them to the palace hall.

Anrietta and Horton were already waiting in the great hall.

Duke Vallière, Marshal Grammont, Minister of Finance, Minister of Foreign Affairs Fouquet, and the President of the Supreme Court were arriving one after another, and it would take some time for Osman to arrive because he was staying at the Academy of Magic. All the ministers looked at the heavy faces of Anrietta and Hao Tian and felt that something big was happening.

Anrietta announced the matter of the rising water level of Lake Lagudorian and the information Hao Tian had asked for.

"What!" "Too bad." "Gotta come up with something."

The ministers also fell into a panic, but were still calm enough to look at Hao Tian.

Now that Hao Tian had stepped down as Secretary of State, he was theoretically ineligible to attend this meeting, but the ministers were all aware of Hao Tian's relationship with Anrietta. Compared to Anrietta's naive weakness, this time, instead, they relied more on Hao Tian's decision.

Hao Tian saw the eyes of everyone gathered and spoke.

"The will of the Water Elf cannot be swayed by us. Now we can only minimize the losses, firstly, move the nobles and people within a 100-kilometer radius of Lake Lagudorian to higher ground. Secondly, send the army stationed around the lake to monitor the movements of the Water Elves and other water elemental beings. Then, send the magical knights over there, and also one or two [Quadrilateral Rank] will need to sit there in case of a conflict, so they can be held back for a certain amount of time in case of a conflict."

"Leave the matter of relocating the populace to me." The Minister of Finance spoke up. Hao Tian nodded his head in agreement.

"I'll arrange for the army and the Magic Knights, Your Majesty Anrietta?" Gramont asked Anrietta for permission to move the army and the magical knights directly under the Queen, and even the Marshal couldn't move them alone.

"Just do what Hao Tian says." Anrietta didn't object.

Gramont nodded.

"A [Quadrilateral Rank] magician? My wife can count one." Duke Valier spoke out.

Hoshi met the Duke's gaze and nodded at him.

"If there's an accident there, I'll be right over."

"Should the other countries be notified of this?" Foreign Minister Fouquet inquired.

"Go inform them, the threat of the Water Elves is not something we, the nation of Torristine, can deal with either." Hoshi nodded.

"For the time being, that's all that can be done. Everyone, just stay in the palace office lately, and save yourself a lot of running around. The left side of the palace will be cleaned out for you guys to use." Hao Tian spoke up.

The ministers looked at each other and promised to stay overnight.

Osman arrived afterwards and was unable to suggest anything better. The meeting ended, and the people dispersed to begin the migration of the people, the mobilization of the army, and so on. Late at night, a group of ministers also stayed up until morning to finish the pre-work before falling asleep at the table.

Fouquet informs the other three countries about the water elves and asks for assistance. In addition, announcements were made to reassure and calm the people near Lake Lagudorian and to ask them to cooperate with the state.

The continent was in turmoil for a while longer after word spread of the Water Elves' rising water levels. It was only a month ago that the matter of the flaming humanoid was resolved, and now the Water Elves were bringing trouble. Many people were on tenterhooks and began praying for the blessings of the founding ancestors, even as the number of people going to churches around the world doubled.

Julio took this opportunity to propose to Hao Tian to rebuild the Church of the First Ancestor.

"The people are now terrified and they need a faith. With me rebuilding the Church of the Patriarchs, I'll guide them. I'll also appeal to them to cooperate with the state. Isn't it good to give the people a spiritual sustenance?" Julio tried to convince Hao Tian.
