Chapter 296 - 296 296 Misunderstanding (Part 2)

296: Chapter 296: Misunderstanding (Part 2) 296: Chapter 296: Misunderstanding (Part 2) Vice Principal Fleck also reached out and heavily patted Su Ming on the shoulder, praising him.

“You did very well this time, not only did you save our people, but you also killed Bink!”

“It’s what I should have done.”

Su Ming humbly replied.

“Don’t be so modest.

I will commend you for your service, and we’ll settle everything once we get back.”

The more Vice Principal Fleck looked at Su Ming, the more he liked him.

In his eyes, Su Ming was like a piece of warm jade, always able to shine with unexpected brilliance.

“Isn’t that because I taught him well?

Fleck, can you give me back the bonus you docked from me?”

Mia rubbed her hands with a grin, constantly thinking about the money that had been withheld.

Even a little bit counts.

“You really have a thick face, but let it be, I’ll waive your punishment for the sake of your student.”

Fleck didn’t bother to argue with Mia.

It was at this moment that Major Gene came over and respectfully reported to Vice Principal Fleck.

“Lord Fleck, the King of Baisitan has come to visit.”

Upon hearing this, the smile on Fleck’s face immediately faded, and his expression grew somber.

Just then, a series of footsteps was heard, and the King of Baisitan walked in with Martins and others.

“Ah, Brother Fleck, I’m so relieved to see you unharmed.

The worry I’ve been carrying has finally been put to rest.”

“Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but I’m afraid I can’t quite accept it.”

Fleck coldly responded.

“Oh, this whole situation is really a misunderstanding, I apologize to you!

Let me explain it to you slowly, I really didn’t expect these rebels to be so bold as to kill the envoy I sent out, and even more audacious to attack you all.”

The King of Baisitan explained very sincerely.

“A misunderstanding?

I have nothing to say to you.”

Fleck didn’t give the King of Baisitan any face and, with a cold snort, turned and walked away.

Seeing that Fleck didn’t give him any face at all and was obviously extremely angry, the King of Baisitan’s gaze then fell on Mia and Su Ming.

He rolled his eyes and immediately came up with an idea.

The King of Baisitan walked up to Mia with a smile.

“Beautiful Miss Mia, this really is a misunderstanding.

Brother Fleck is just hot-headed at the moment, could you please speak a few kind words on our behalf?”

Mia couldn’t be bothered with Baisitan and turned her head to look aside.

“This is a little something from me, I hope you won’t disdain it.”

The King of Baisitan then took out a sleek black bank card and handed it to Mia.

Mia’s eyes lit up when she saw the black card.

However, she didn’t show any emotion, and after taking the card, she sighed and looked towards Su Ming.

Noticing this, the King of Baisitan immediately understood and quickly took out another black card and handed it to Su Ming.

Su Ming looked at the bank card in his hand and, with a strange expression, glanced at Mia.

He was unsure how to handle it—as taking it seemed wrong, and not taking it also seemed wrong.

At this moment, the King of Baisitan said with a laugh,

“The two of you, our country and the Federation have always been friendly.

This really was an accident; I hope you could help clear up the misunderstanding.”

Mia looked at the black card in her hand, sighed, and then said to the King of Baisitan,

“Your Majesty, it’s not really that we blame Lord Fleck for his anger.

This incident was extremely heinous and had very serious consequences.”

“I understand, could you please help me out?”

“Ah, it’s not that I don’t want to help, but because of those rebels, we lost two students.

The compensation…”

“I’ll pay for the compensation!”

The King of Baisitan didn’t even think before saying,

“There are still so many injured people.”

“All the medical expenses, nutrition fees, and lost wages, I’ll cover them all!”

“What about the costs for the damaged weapon maintenance?”

“I’ll cover every last bit, all of it!”

“The King of Baisitan is indeed generous.

I believe there’s definitely some misunderstanding in this matter.

Please rest assured and go back, I’ll certainly try to persuade Vice Principal Fleck.”

Mia immediately promised.

“Thank you so much, I’ll leave everything in your hands then, I must be going!”

The King of Baisitan let out a sigh of relief upon hearing Mia’s words.

“Take care!”

Mia nodded in response.

Baisitan then left with Martins and the others.

After the King of Baisitan had left, Su Ming turned to Mia and said,

“Is this really okay?

Because of them, we’ve had casualties.

Although this rebellion might not have been his wish, he can’t be completely free of blame.

If it weren’t for his actions, we wouldn’t have had any deaths.”

Mia, after hearing this, showed a self-deprecating smile and said,

“Sigh, what else can we do?

Not to mention whether this was the King of Baisitan’s intention, even if it were his orders, what can we do to him?

At this critical juncture, the Federation would only attack a Neutral Country if they had their brains kicked in by a mule!

So this is the best we could do.”

“That makes sense.

By the way, which bank issued this card?

I remember the last time the Deputy City Lord of Black Flame City also gave you this type of card, why do they all like using this card?”

“Heh, you don’t understand, huh?

This is a bank card issued by the Morris Interstellar Bank.

This card doesn’t recognize the person, only the card itself.

Whoever holds this card can withdraw the money in it at will.”

“It can work like that?

The Federation doesn’t care?”

Su Ming asked, quite curiously.

“Care?

How would they care?

You think they’re pushovers?

There are a lot of ins and outs the Federation doesn’t want to get involved with, I won’t go into that now!

Let’s get the supplies loaded, after that’s finished, we’re setting sail back to the school.

This trip out, you really struck it rich!”

Mia said to Su Ming with a chuckle.

“It’s passable, I suppose.”

Su Ming was in a very good mood, although he didn’t know how much money was on the card.

But he felt like the income from this trip should be enough to pay off the money borrowed from his family, and probably much more.

“Passable?

You’re being too humble and that’s over the top.

This time not only did you make a fortune, but you also earned much credit for the accomplishments.

You’ll definitely get plenty of academic credits once you’re back.”

Mia said with deep feeling.

“How many academic credits will I get?”

Su Ming asked with interest.

“How would I know?

Wait until the military and the academy conduct their joint evaluation.

Come on!

Let’s head back to the ship, let the others do the rest of the work.”

Mia stretched and replied.

“Alright!”

Su Ming nodded slightly in agreement.

Three days later, all resources within the entire mining base were transferred onto the Red Teeth.

The Red Teeth didn’t stay in the Abayk Kingdom; it immediately set sail and departed.

…

Danube Star Sea · Kviten Neutral Country.

Inside a spacious and grand meeting room, with a dazzling crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling, exquisite oil paintings on the walls, heavy hand-woven carpets on the floor, and a huge circular meeting table at the center,

Representatives from different Neutral Countries sat in their meeting chairs.

Upon closer observation, one could see that among the 32 Neutral Countries of the Danube Star Sea, 20 were seated here.

This means excluding the 3 Neutral Countries that had fallen and the 6 that were close to the Imperial Army, only three Neutral Countries were not present.
