章 255: The Grand Strategy Meeting Part Two

Director Aethel relaxed slightly by letting out a sigh, he then redirected his gaze towards a group of reporters stationed near the back of the hall.

They took the opportunity to raise their hands, eager to question the Union Branch Director. Aethel adjusted his tie, giving a nod to signal that he was ready to address the press.

A young journalist from the City Chronicle was the first to be acknowledged. She stood up, her holo-recorder hovering by her shoulder, capturing every word.

"Director Aethel, considering the increase in crime and monster sightings in the outer rings, many citizens are concerned about their safety. You've highlighted where some guilds have failed, but can you elaborate on what new measures the Union Office intends to implement to address these issues directly?"

Aethel gave a small nod. "An important question, and a timely one. The Union Office has already begun discussions about strengthening our central response units."
