Soon, Minister of Intelligence Xi Weng pushed the door and walked into the council hall.
Walking with his head down, he muttered, "Your Majesty, the main connection to Blue Star has been interrupted; we may not be able to restore the live footage."
Manina XIII gave him a glance, and waved his hand lightly, indicating he didn't mind.
Xi Weng sighed with relief and tactfully stood to one side.
In the council hall, Manina stopped talking, and no one else dared to speak up. The hall fell silent.
A minute or so later, Manina slowly spoke, "Ovim and Doc are the heroes of Skru Star! Announce the news of their sacrifice. The nation will mourn and flags will be flown at half-mast."
However, reflecting on it, the sacrifice of these two was not entirely a bad thing.
Their deaths could provoke the people of Skru into hating the enemy; it could even beautify this invasion war into a "righteous cause"!
