章 709: Meeting The Council (1)

While Ashton was eager to meet with the council and get down to business, the Xyrans had to fulfil their protocols. Since most of the board consisted of old and fragile elders, they were highly susceptible to diseases. 

Hence, everyone who visits the council has to undergo a series of tests and quarantine before they are allowed to meet the council. At first, Ashton thought it was some trap of the Xyrans, but he relaxed once Astaroth informed him about it being authentic. 

That being said, Ashton recommended that they conduct the meeting virtually as it would be quicker and wouldn't put anyone's health in danger. 

But his proposition was rejected as it was a matter of alliance, hence quite significant, and such issues had been to be discussed face-to-face. 

Ashton wasn't pleased with how things were proceeding as he wanted the meeting to be over quickly so that he could return and begin preparation for himself.
