Chapter 1588 - Arrangements

Hendrix instructed his last remaining advisor to schedule a town meeting. Meanwhile, while he waited for the remaining citizens to come together, he was smoking some damaged cigarettes that a rough packaging trip. He exhaled the smoke from his nostrils and sighed. As he heard approaching footsteps, he immediately removed the damaged cigarette from his mouth and mushed it into the ground with his shoe. Hendrix walked up to the podium and glared at the remaining citizens, who didn't look too happy. Everyone." I'm glad you all could make it considering the events that just transpired." We have a lot to discuss." The citizens were furious. They started talking among themselves. Hendrix looked over at his advisor and whispered: What do you think they're talking about?" The advisor started scratching the back of his head. " I don't know but we're both to find out. The people turn their eyes at Hendrix. How could you let this happen?!" Do you realize the damage those dragons have done to us?!" Do you even care?!" yelled the elderly woman. Hendrix sighed. " Of course I care." Why wouldn't I care?" Because you allowed it to happen!" We were supposed to evacuate!" yelled another citizen. All the citizens began shouting. Everybody calm down."The citizens wouldn't bother to listen. The advisor stepped in front of the raging citizens and said: Everyone needs to relax." Everything is going to be alright." No, it won't!" yelled a merchant. I lost my wife and daughter!" Can you bring them back!" No, so everything is not fine!" Hendrix cleared his throat. " All of those who have lost family members step forward." Over thirty people stepped forward. " Your family member's burial arrangements will be taken care of." I can promise you that." I will also promise that those dragons will never fly into this city ever again." The citizens thanked Hendrix. I will also have every single building that was destroyed to be repaired." I know many of you lost your businesses, homes, and schools. The budget will be 500 million gold coins. All these repairs will take almost a year to be one hundred percent complete, so this is why I have scheduled all of you to live in The North." Everyone was confused. " Currently a new city is being built over the Northern waters. You all will live there to further notice." Whispers began filling the huge crowd. Hendrix cleared his throat and said: This meeting is officially over." I advise you all to gather your belongings and start packing your bags. Hendrix stepped down from the podium. The huge crowd dispersed. Hendrix walked over to his advisor and said: Is the city finished yet?" The advisor shook his head. " Not yet sir but almost." The machines are having some technical difficulties due to the extremely cold weather." The city should be completed in about 48 to 60 hours. Hendrix started nodding. Good." As Hendrix was about to contact Dr. Gonzalez, the ground started shaking. Hendrix rolled his eyes." " What now?"
