Eva spoke as she heard him, "Yes, but as you might know, Ryfon is the head of the construction department . If you want a sturdy Mansion or House . you should bribe him with the new items(wines) rather than bitching . "
Tornwall laughed as said, "That won't matter as the new agent will anyway keep the houses sturdier from now on so I don't need to suck up to anyone . The only thing he can do is delay the construction but I already have a way . Come we are already here, it seems the ceremony has only finished right now . "
Tornwall commented as he saw the Administrative headquarters, "I guess he really did a fine work making this grand structure . It looks bigger than any type of Imperial palace I have seen earlier . From the looks, this new agent is quite better and reduces the labor shortage and deaths when it comes to making this grand structure . "
Eva asked him, "Yes, this structure alone is at least 12 storeys (35 meters) . It took up a lot of area to make this Palace . I heard it has 600 plus rooms alone . That towering gate alone is quite awe-inspiring for anyone visiting this place along with those towers on both sides behind the gates . John said that it looked quite a lot like Gothic Moorish and Victorian architecture with some parts quite unique and it is as big as Buckingham Palace while having the features of the white house . Tornwall do you know what these terms are?"
Tornwall, "I guess it is related to Architecture . Anyway, let head on . "
John was briefing Taylor, Ryfon and Sam about the new policies and their implementation as he saw Tornwall, "Aah just the right person when I was thinking . I guess you missed a lot of events when you were cooped up in your workshop, Tornwall . I made this thing called a clock and I wanted you to make this thing called a Clock tower in our City . People will get a sense of time and able to communicate better with fixed timings so I needed your help . For this Project, both you and Ryfon will work together as it will require both of you to co-operate with each other to make this building . Look, this is the prototype of a clock I asked Redbeer to make in the workshop . However, it would be very expensive right now to make this clock for the consumer needs so I intend to make this clock tower so the common man can get its benefits . "
John thought as he proposed his idea to Tornwall and Ryfon, 'Well, I guess 1 million points on various types of clocks were worth it . I can earn quite a few points because of this clock tower . '
Tornwall was quite surprised as he asked, "Would this clock show exactly the same time tomorrow after 24 hours, won't we need to take a lot of factors for accuracy?"
John proudly and seriously claimed to both Tornwall and Ryfon, "You don't need to worry . For now, I have tested it already so you only need to implement the blueprints when you construct the clock tower, make sure to use the best materials . Additionally, this architecture would be unique to our town as this will only increase the prestige of our North-frontier city so I hope it can become a prestige symbol of our town . Both of you would be needed to make this possible . You both understand the importance, Right?"
Sarah mocked John inside his head as he tried to brag, 'It's not you who tested it, I the great Sarah was the one who simulated and tested these blueprints, you narcissist . You only made some modifications to the blueprints . And what importance? you only want to earn more points by making it a unique structure . "
John thought as he heard her revealing his plans, 'Can't you keep quiet and not ruin my mood every once in a while because of this bullshit commentary? hmph, aren't you a hypocrite when you call others narcissist . '
Eva roared as she felt ignored, "Hey, are you really going to relax or going to work today aswell? You even forgot about me as soon as you found Tornwall for your new project . And what is with this bragging, We all know that you have an incredible memory and mind . "
John touched his nose in embarrassment as he spoke to Eva after hearing her roar, "I am sorry, I am sorry . I was quite immersed in work as I wanted to contact Tornwall earlier . Come, lets go the market . Work can be done later on . "
Tornwall just wanted to speak about something as he shut his mouth down as he saw Eva's glare . Tornwall thought, 'I guess I can still inform him later on about the new developments . '
Ryfon meanwhile pulled Tornwall as he spoke, "Let them go on their date or you will have to face the wrath of that old woman already . That old hag even made sure to force me and make Eva's office beside John office's in this administrative HQ's so that they communicate more . "
Tornwall laughed as he heard, "hahaha, I guess that old hag is abusing her power quite well to match them up . Meanwhile, I am quite surprised that you were able to make this grand structure, I don't think I have seen anything like this in our long history . Your name will certainly be written in history books for making such a grand structure . And what is the name of this palace? Meanwhile, what is with that big statue of John in front of the garden . Can't you see, even Lord was quite uncomfortable being around that statue . "
Ryfon spoke as he heard about this grand structure, "Well, I wasn't alone in this, Lord too offered me a lot of help and I guess it wouldn't be possible without that new classified agent . The cost alone would have raised by 10 times and the same goes for time if we didn't have that agent . As for the name of this palace, it would be called the Winter Palace as titled by Lord today . As for that statue, it was proposed by the council and the majority of the officials voted yes so that is how we got that statue . Meanwhile that old hag also wanted a statue but all the council members rejected it . That was quite a funny moment . " Ryfon spoke proudly as he told about the statue .
Tornwall Facepalmed as he heard about the statue and the voting of council members .
Tornwall sighed, "I guess the name of this palace has multiple meanings, Come lets go to Hope for now . I have missed a lot of things . Meanwhile, first, What do you think about this new project called Clock Tower? I guess I missed watching the face of that old hag . "
Both of them headed inside Hope,
Ryfon thought as he spoke his ideas, "To be honest, it is quite new, creative and a novel idea . People would start saving more time by using this clock . Additionally, as people are getting educated, it would be helpful to our town . Speaking of other things, Duke Fjord's Son Evan and his entourage were just massacred a few days back . I guess it was quite good on Count's part that he already made an alliance with Duke of Southern Forest, Sapphire Rose . "
Tornwall gravely asked, "Who did the massacre? Lord or someone else?"
Ryfon thought and spoke what he heard from Taylor, "According to Taylor, it was done by Prince Hector's men . So In the previous meeting, we concluded that Prince Hector did this to basically gauge our Ballistas while using Duke Fjord as a vanguard . While Duke Fjord also is falling for the bait because of his anger while he also wishes to have pie in North-south trade . Well, this was anyway apparent even before Evan's death as he had started trying to raid our ships . Have you heard about our new Admiral?"
Tornwall asked confusingly, "No, Who is he?"
Ryfon smiled and spoke, "Previously he was a pirate . What do you think?"
Tornwall shrugged as he commented, "Well, I trust Lord so it won't matter to me who he hires . Anyway, tell me more about him . "

John asked Eva, "Meanwhile, where are Sally and Josephine? Weren't they coming as well?"
Eva gruntled as she spoke, "I guess Grandma conned both of us this time around . "
Georgio thought as he saw Eva and John coming out of the administrative headquarters, 'Geez, why do I have to suggest these ideas to that old hag? That old hag is quite cunning as she was able to take a promise from both of them . What are these days where I have to do these shameful things instead of spying or diplomatic work . '
Eva spoke as she heard John, "Speaking of Sally, she was quite down lately because of your interactions with Prince Lukav . While Josephine is busy teaching the brats from the village about the fighting techniques she discovered recently, I guess she will return as soon as she is out of all the combat techniques . "
