Chapter 117 Dean’s soliloquy
“…Rudy, I’m finished . ”
Watching me put down my quill, Rudy smiled softly .
“Thank you for your hard work . I’ll send these to the corresponding departments . ”
“If it’s not too much work . ”
After saying that, I couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief . We finally finished taking care of all the cases we needed to take care of .
Now even if we went to the Armenia territory things would be fine…that’s what I couldn’t help but think .
“Finally, we could go and visit there without issue . ”
I wasn’t supposed to say it, but he saw right through me .
“Well, I think we’re just about done here . All the work that is urgent and important is done . Plus, why are these cases under my jurisdiction anyways? What is the financial office doing?”
“It’s because there aren’t enough people in the palace . ”
At the moment, we didn’t just have to arrange for spies to prevent political errors in other nations or various territories, but also within our own palace .
It was because all the big players were still duking it out, while underneath them others were trying to gain the upper hand by competing amongst themselves . Of course, if they were using more moral methods of competition then things would be fine . But all of them were cheating, whether through bribing or connections, and anyone who tried to take the high way was treated as an idiot . In this kind of atmosphere, many talented individuals ended up leaving the palace early because they couldn’t see a future there .
Although I had hired many of them back to work under me…
“We’re also lacking in staff, but the Armenia territory isn’t doing so badly . The truly awful situation is over here, where we have people but are powerless to do anything about anything . ”

Everyone drags each other down, and no one ends up getting work done . Under these circumstances, just thinking about how many actual capable civil servants remain makes my head hurt .
“Let’s take a bit of a break . Wake me up in an hour . ”
After taking a deep breath, I told Rudy .
“Shall I prepare the bedroom for you?”
“No need . ”
“All right . ”
After Rudy left, I sighed and closed my eyes . Slowly, I relaxed my consciousness .
Maybe it was because I was so tired…
…I dreamt of some nostalgic memories!
Usually I never dreamed about my childhood memories…it was a pity that they weren’t very happy .
My earliest memory is being surrounded by adults every unchanging day . Being born as the first prince meant that as soon as I was born I was shuttled off to be taken care by a dedicated wetnurse .
…I always felt like I had a rather cool temperament as a child, but that never felt like something bad to me .
