In the next few days, Michaela stayed at the hotel waiting for the results from Sal, while Marlenia was still shopping happily.
But strangely, in the next few days, Tessa disappeared from Orgrimmar as if she had evaporated.
What?
Tessa is back home at Crossroads?
If this was the case, Michaela would not have any doubts, but in fact:
"If it weren't for my great Torina's memory, you might not even remember Tessa's name!"
As Torina said, the morning after Tessa left, both Michaela and Marlenia only remembered that a guest came to the hotel room, but the specific identity of the guest and how the guest knew him Their process was completely forgotten.
Fortunately, there is Torina in Michaela's spiritual world, and she remembers Tessa.
"What a weird thing."
Michaela didn't know why, and since he still had a mission and couldn't leave Orgrimmar, he had no choice but to put this matter aside first.
In this way, three full days passed. After "intense discussion and careful thinking", Thrall finally came to the decision to allow the blood elves to become the fifth largest force in the tribe.
Under the leadership of Nazgrel, Michaela met Thrall again and signed a series of letters of intent on behalf of Silvermoon City, including opening teleportation coordinates and opening markets. After all, Michaela was just an ambassador, not Silvermoon City. The ruler does not have the right to sign formal documents and can only sign a letter of intent first.
In short, the matter of blood elves joining the tribe has been settled, and after the letter of intent was signed, Mikaela is already qualified to use the portal of Orgrimmar to return to the Undercity, and then return to Silver through the portal of the Undercity. Moon City, no need to take any more damn airships!
"Michaela, why don't you just go back to Silvermoon City through the portal?"
Facing Torina's question, Mikaela replied angrily: "You are stupid. The portals between cities are bidirectional and need to be built on both sides at the same time before they can be used. Now Orgrimmar leads to Silvermoon City. The portal hasn’t been built yet, how can I use it?”
If there are words, it will be long; if there are no words, it will be short.
After a day of rest (mainly eating barbecue), Michaela and Marlenia returned home with a series of documents.
When he walked out of the portal in Silver Moon City, Aqiang, who had already received the news and was waiting there, had organized a huge welcoming team to welcome the hero back.
One week later, with the construction of the portal from Silvermoon City to Orgrimmar, Aqiang personally led the ambassador to Orgrimmar to attend the tribal summit, and held meetings in Thrall, Vol'jin, Kane and Sylva. Under the joint gaze of Nas, Aqiang signed the tribal treaty on behalf of all the blood elves. At this point, the blood elves have officially become the fifth largest force in the tribe!
"But are the above incidents related to Michaela?"
Torina told everyone: "Of course it is related, because as a hero of the blood elves, he must have participated in Aqiang's ambassadorship!"
"in addition……"
Torina also took out a copy of Orgrimmar's newspaper "Goodnight Tribe" and pointed to the photo on the front page and said: "Look, Michaela's photo is on the front page."
Indeed, Michaela was always a fixture on the front pages of newspapers wherever he was, but today he was about to retire.
"You want to resign?"
In the Regent's office in Silver Moon City, Aqiang looked at Mikaela in front of him, who nodded and said, "Yes, Lord Regent, I think it's time to leave."
Torina jumped out to explain the reason: "From the Battle of Silvermoon City, to the Battle of Torvasa, to the Battle of Dysholm, and even joining the Horde, it can be said that the blood elves can achieve success all because of Mikaela .”
“Doesn’t that sound awesome?”
"However, Michaela is not the regent. The more he stands out, the more he will affect the status of regent Aqiang. This is the master of great achievements."
"Since ancient times, subordinates with high achievements will be killed by their leaders using various means. On the other hand, Aqiang has not hindered Mikaela until now, which shows that Aqiang has a very broad mind."
Just like now, after Aqiang learned the news of Mikayla's resignation, in addition to happiness, he also felt another emotion in his heart, that is, worry.
Mikaela is gone, the person with great achievements is gone, Aqiang's position is stable, but what about the future of the blood elves? Who can solve the problem?
So now Aqiang is actually very conflicted in his heart. What should he do?
"Michaela, you have done so much for us, I really can't bear to see you go."
After a brief thought, Aqiang spoke: "So, I plan to grant you the title of Honorary Minister. You will always be the Minister of Silver Moon City."
Torina: "Michaela, do you understand?"
Michaela: "I understand what the regent means. As a member of the blood elves, when my race encounters difficulties, it is my duty to do so."
This was what Aqiang was waiting for, and he immediately showed a satisfied smile: "Then I'll be relieved."
Of course, there are procedures for resignation, especially for important positions such as ministers. There must be a transition period. During this period, Michaela is still the minister of the Ministry of Administrative Affairs and has to stand up for the last time.
So, here comes the thing.
Just listen to Aqiang say: "Minister Michaela, the Thunder Bluff Tauren seem to be very interested in our enchanted products. They plan to send a diplomatic mission to conduct a friendly visit and prepare trade negotiations with us. And I I’m going to let your administrative affairs department handle the reception.”
One of the treaties for joining the tribe is to open markets to each other among members, so the tauren came, and this trade was the blood elves' first big order after joining the tribe. As long as the blood elves' excellent enchanting products are available, If you successfully break into the tribal market, you can rely on the enchantment industry to support the economy just like in the old Silvermoon City period.
No wonder Aqiang takes it so seriously.
But Michaela asked: "Your Majesty the Regent, this matter involves diplomatic affairs, so it should be handled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Isn't it a bit overstepping the authority to ask the Ministry of Administrative Affairs to come forward?"
Aqiang said with a look of embarrassment: "Minister Michaela, although I have already made the decision to establish the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the preparations for the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are slower than I expected. The framework has only just been set up and cannot be put into working condition."
"Oh, I see."
Michaela nodded, indicating that she understood, and then cursed in her heart: "Humphrey, you bastard!"
I also know that if the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is so slow, it must be Humphrey who is holding it back.
As an old bureaucrat from the old Silvermoon City era, Humphrey is power-hungry, so once the new Department of Foreign Affairs is established, it means that the Department of Administrative Affairs will lose its special status as the only department in Silvermoon City, and the power in its hands will naturally be Humphrey would never agree with that.
And if you think about it more deeply, as the blood elves join the tribe and the situation gradually stabilizes, then various regular government departments will definitely be established one by one. Starting from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, every time a department is established, the power of the Department of Administrative Affairs will be weakened. layer!
Michaela didn't think much about power, so of course she wouldn't mind, but Humphrey couldn't.
"I feel that this time Aqiang entrusts you with the task of receiving the Tauren ambassador. I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems."
Torina expressed her thoughts: "I may also plan to ask you to persuade Humphrey not to hinder the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at the critical moment."
While thinking about it, Michaela had returned to the office of the Administrative Affairs Department after a long absence.
"Hello, minister."
"Welcome back, Minister."
Humphrey and Bernard were waiting in the office as always, watching Michaela sit on the minister's throne.
"Did he say anything when I met the Prince Regent this time?" Humphrey asked.
Humphrey already knew about his resignation, so what Michaela said was: "A Tauren ambassador will be visiting Silvermoon City recently, and the Regent has asked our Administrative Affairs Department to be responsible for the reception."
"Oh, diplomatic business."
Humphrey smiled, nodded and said: "That really should be handled by our Administrative Affairs Department, right, Minister?"
"Haha, Michaela, there is something in Humphrey's words." Even Torina heard it.
Michaela's answer was: "Yes, Humphrey, before the establishment of the Department of Foreign Affairs, our Department of Administrative Affairs should indeed be responsible for this matter."
Humphrey continued to smile and said: "Minister, you also support the Regent in establishing the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
Michaela: "The Ministry of Administrative Affairs was only established at the beginning, but it was just a makeshift. After all, a complete government cannot have only one department. Humphrey, you should know better than me on this."
"I also support the idea of a regent."
Humphrey raised his right index finger and rubbed his face, and said, "But the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs seems to have encountered some difficulties."
Michaela: "For example?"
Bernard on the side spoke: "Sir Humphrey believes that he is just managing the department on his behalf when the minister is away. However, when it comes to matters of the same level, namely the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the matter must be signed by the minister himself. A white paper will do.”
Previously, Silvermoon City only had one department, the Department of Administrative Affairs, so everything was under the jurisdiction of this department. With the establishment of the Department of Foreign Affairs, the Department of Administrative Affairs must give up relevant powers. The white paper document Bernard mentioned is the power of diplomatic relations. transfer document.
You know, Humphrey will never sign that document, and his reasons are very good. Who asked Minister Michaela to send an envoy to Orgrimmar, but he is not in Silvermoon City!
Now that Michaela is back, of course she must solve this problem!
"Bernard, bring me the white paper, I want to sign it!"
Following Michaela's order, Bernard immediately took out a thick stack of unsigned white papers. The top one was for the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the transfer of some powers by the Ministry of Administrative Affairs. document!
Torina took the opportunity and said: "I know some people will definitely ask, why would Humphrey write this white paper? Couldn't it be fine if he didn't write it? Anyway, Michaela can't write a white paper at all!"
"Unfortunately, that's not possible!"
"Because writing the government white paper is one of the responsibilities of the permanent secretary Humphrey, he cannot not write it, otherwise it will be dereliction of duty. Humphrey will not leave himself any excuse, so he chose to make a fuss about the signing issue."
Humphrey on the side watched Michaela sign her name on the document, his expression twitched several times, obviously unhappy.
But after this period of time, Michaela also grew up a lot. After signing the documents, he said to Humphrey:
"Humphrey, I know that many departments will be established in Silvermoon City to form a government with complete institutions, so can you promise me one thing?"
Michaela raised her eyebrows and asked, "A, what did you promise?"
Just listen to Mikaela say: "Let our Administrative Affairs Department become the most powerful department in Silvermoon City in the future."
"Yes, Minister."
Humphrey smiled.
