Chapter 1101: Chapter 1096: Situation 1_1 Chapter 1101 -1096: Situation 1_1 The expressions on these people’s faces made Finn Lewis show a bitter smile for the first time.
The sudden change in Finn’s expression left everyone somewhat baffled, but they all remained silent.
Finn Lewis let out a bitter chuckle, then spread his hands and said, “To be honest, I’m happy that you support me, but regarding the question you’ve asked, all I want to say is, don’t even talk about after the war has ended.
If we can ensure that we’re not annihilated by the enemy, that would already be a decent choice.”
Finn’s words were clearly beyond everyone’s expectations; they hadn’t realized just how powerful the enemy was.
“Whether you’ve realized it or not, you’ll understand when the time comes.
Since you now agree with my opinion, this afternoon at the Federation’s Supreme Committee meeting, you’ll need to be present to explain.”
Hearing Finn’s words, everyone felt somewhat helpless.
We would like to disagree, but did you give us any choice but to agree?
...
It seems you’ve given us two options that are really just one, one is to agree on our own, and the other is to be convinced by you to agree, which is still better than agreeing on our own.
At least no matter what happens later, we have a say.
These thoughts were unspoken, but as things had already reached this point, everyone understood the gravity of the situation and nodded their heads in agreement.
“There are many issues that need to be dealt with, such as the integration of the various families.
Your Highness, do you have that many people at your disposal?”
“You don’t need to worry about that; I have enough people to handle such matters,” Finn Lewis nodded and said.
“If there’s anything I need, I will tell you, and furthermore, each family head can visit their own families.
Afterward, please come to the Capital Star region.
We need to establish a true Federation Supreme Committee.
Since everyone understands the seriousness and is willing to extend this courtesy to me, I will also grant you a say in some matters.”
Finn Lewis laid the problems out plainly; he was not an excellent politician nor was he interested in becoming one.
Political issues were obviously inappropriate at this time, so Finn simply used a straightforward approach, being direct and frank face-to-face.
Once spoken, such matters would be easier to resolve.
“Alright then, since Your Highness has said so frankly, we naturally can’t fail to show respect.
We will listen to Your Highness’s decision,” said the people, who clearly were somewhat uncertain about Finn’s train of thought.
Finn’s style of speaking was very unsettling for them, who could almost be said to have spent their lives in circles.
However, they were all shrewd people; they could still handle such conversation.
“Since we’ve reached an agreement, I’ll trouble you then.
In a while, someone will broadcast the related agreement to all the territories within the entire Federation through a television announcement,” Finn Lewis said with a smile.
Everyone was taken aback, then some were rendered speechless.
Finn Lewis was not playing by the book at all.
Where had it been done that they would announce directly to the public after a long discussion?
He didn’t leave them any room to maneuver, did he?
And they couldn’t represent all of the royal family and nobility, could they?
Although taking such action meant that theoretically, none of the other royal families and nobles would oppose, speaking so directly, what would others think?
“No problem.” But since things had already come to this, it was too late to backtrack now; they could only proceed with determination.
