The Witcher: Elemental Lords
#645 - Internal Conflict
In the front of the middle position was a row of parallel seats, now filled with people, with Allen sitting in the center.
People outside slowly entered, some going to the observation seats and others to the parallel seats.
The person who had questioned Dole earlier sat in one of the parallel seats.
Dole merely glanced at him and understood immediately that if there were people supporting him and people opposing him, that man was definitely one of his opponents.
The Glory Wizard Alliance had many departments, such as administrative, financial, personnel, and law enforcement departments, as well as inspectors, supervisors, and adjudication departments, including tribunals and judgment halls.
Dole knew that his matter could be a big deal or a small deal, and he hadn't initially taken it to heart, but seeing the current situation, he frowned slightly.
This matter probably wouldn't be easily resolved.
At this moment, after walking in, Ava gave him a reassuring look and then went to the audience seats.
Dole frowned, then walked towards the middle seat and slowly sat down, his eyes fixed on the parallel seats in front of him.
He looked at Allen, but Allen didn't look at him, instead seeming to communicate with someone through sound transmission.
People slowly entered, and the room was quiet with a hint of noise; few people spoke, all looking towards the center.
Before long, it seemed everyone had arrived, and Allen stopped communicating with others, turning his head for the first time to formally look at Dole.
Dole now saw a strange color in Allen's eyes, as if they held some kind of wisdom.
Seeing this, he thought, what is this guy up to now?
Preparing to reprimand me?
He thought of another possibility.
Or, was he preparing to use the excuse of reprimanding him to reprimand everyone else?
That was possible.
As he was lost in thought, everyone around him had taken their seats and quieted down.
A person next to Allen cleared his throat, coughed, and slowly said, "I am Vice President Akron. I will be hosting today's meeting. The main topic is the attack on Wizard Dole and the improper use of the Wizard Tower. We will discuss two aspects today. First, the matter of Wizard Dole being plotted against and attacked requires all of us to participate in the discussion. The reason for the incident may not be clear to everyone, so I will give a brief introduction here. Everyone knows about the Sand Scorpion Adventure Group, right...?"
After Akron briefly introduced the matter, he continued expressionlessly, "Second, we will discuss the matter of Wizard Dole's abuse of the Wizard Tower. Although Wassenberg does not explicitly stipulate how the Wizard Tower should be used, it is clear that Wizard Dole's use of the Wizard Tower this time has caused a large amount of financial and personnel losses. This behavior is worth our serious reflection and consideration on how the Wizard Tower should be used."
Hearing these words, Dole's heart sank. This Akron was really using him as an example to be flogged.
He didn't change his expression or reveal any emotion, as if everything was irrelevant to him.
After Akron finished speaking, he still stared at Dole expressionlessly.
"Now, let's have Lord Allen preside over the discussion of the first matter."
Allen turned his head and looked at Akron with a calm expression.
Akron looked at Allen calmly, without any intention of avoiding his gaze.
The two men's eyes met, and Allen suddenly turned his head, looking at Dole in front.
The hall was very quiet at this time, waiting for Allen to say something.
"Today's meeting was strongly convened under the leadership of Vice President Akron of the Glory Alliance. First, let me state one point: Wizard Dole's presence here today does not mean he is being questioned. I hope everyone doesn't misunderstand."
He turned his gaze and looked at Akron beside him, slowly stating, "The fact that Wizard Dole was targeted by the notorious Sand Scorpion Adventure Group, and the fact that members of the Sand Scorpion Adventure Group entered Wassenberg, are two major problems. First, the incompetence of the Imperial Security Bureau, as the Sand Scorpion Adventure Group can freely enter and exit Wassenberg, shows their absolute incompetence. Second, the incompetence of the Glory Wizard Alliance's Law Enforcement Department and Intelligence Department. Since I took office, these two departments have been questioned, and now it seems they are indeed somewhat incompetent."
Hearing these words, Akron's face suddenly stiffened. Beside Akron, the person who had questioned Dole outside also had a somewhat stiff expression.
The people around were also a bit stunned. Wasn't the point of today to question Dole? How did it turn into an internal matter of the Glory Wizard Alliance?
At this moment, Allen turned his head and looked at Akron, "I suggest replacing the people in these two major departments. Akron, do you have any good candidates? Preferably experts in tracking and concealment."
Akron was about to speak when the person wearing the Law Enforcement Department uniform turned red in the face and felt he couldn't hold on any longer.
"Lord President Allen, as the head of the Law Enforcement Department, I feel that you may have misjudged the Glory Wizard Alliance's control over the underground forces in Wassenberg. We have always maintained a superficial balance, rather than comprehensive control."
Hearing this, the surrounding people immediately burst into an uproar.
As the largest force in Wassenberg, the Law Enforcement Department's ability was limited to this?
Akron's face darkened upon hearing these words.
Allen revealed a slight sneer, "So I say, replace him with someone else. Sitting in this position, Wassenberg spends so much money every year, investing so much. Now you're telling me that you only maintained a superficial balance, which means that there are countless people secretly engaging in who knows what kind of activities, and you don't even know? The list of deaths in Wassenberg every year is so long, I've long suspected that you're a bunch of useless people."
He sternly rebuked in the last sentence.
That person immediately flushed red, slowly sat down, and stopped speaking.
Akron's expression was somewhat tangled at this time, "President Allen, the Law Enforcement Department and the Intelligence Department also have difficulties. The annual funding and training costs are very high, and it is very difficult to cultivate personnel. The people below are all having a hard time."
Allen didn't even look at him, coldly snorting, and said, "Do you think I don't know anything? Since taking office, I know the accounts of Wassenberg better than you. The monthly expenses of the Law Enforcement Department and the Intelligence Department must be approved by me. Do you think I don't know how much money was spent? How many people in the Glory Wizard Alliance apply to participate in related skills training each month, how much money is spent, and what it's spent on, do you think I don't know?"
The people watching the excitement around were all dumbfounded. Wasn't the point to question Dole? How did it turn into a power struggle between the two presidents?
"You don't need to worry about the future affairs of the Intelligence Department and the Law Enforcement Department." Allen coldly snorted, defining the matter.
Hearing this, the people around felt a chill in their hearts.
Dole was now a little stunned. He had heard some things. It seemed that his coming here was just an excuse. The real conflict was within the Glory Alliance Wizard?
