บท 430: Reclaiming Territory

The murmur of confusion rippled through the meeting room. The authority granted to Cao Cao seemed far greater than they'd anticipated. The same official voiced their concerns once more.

"Mr. Emberweave," they asked, "you mentioned territory and resource disputes. Isn't Astral PMC a private military company hired for conflict resolution? Why would a PMC CEO be involved in such matters?"

Daniel, recognizing the need for clarification, offered an apology. "My apologies, I wasn't clear enough. As you know, the Astral Group, which encompasses both Astral Tech and Astral PMC, owns and governs Sector Alpha City Island, essentially a corporate-owned state. While we don't actively seek conflict, the potential for territorial and resource disputes does exist. That's precisely why I've entrusted Mr. Cao with the critical responsibility of managing those risks."
