Kingly Adventures

Chapter 69: Spying and Meeting

Alexander had a specific target in mind to spy on through the realm gate. Alexander now had enough king's might to observe a world for a few weeks. Alexander wanted to observe the making of quantum-crystalline metal, the strongest material in the star wars world, which was invented by Qwi Xux. This was another version of star wars world which was at a higher level than the moon level-3 world which, Alexander was conquering. The quantum crystalline metal was developed differently here.

Qwi Xux of this world used Phrik as the base material and treated it with some specially developed chemicals which formed a new material which looked like a crystal. Alexander watched as a crystal sheet was compressed to the extent to which the laws of physics of that world permitted and then, laminated over a similarly compressed crystal sheet which was phase shifted. The two interlocked sheets were bombarded with quantum rays to completely fuse the sheets with each other. The resultant crystalline metal was thin, light and entered molten state at high temperatures which made it easier to shape. The molten metal was then shaped according to the needs and then allowed to cooled down. The reshaped metal was treated with a special chemical which made the metal completely indestructible.

Alexander turned towards Anna who was standing behind Alexander, dressed in a formal attire with a professional face but her eyes betrayed her curiousity towards the activities of Alexander. In Alexander's personal opinion, the training Anna had undergone in the management course had changed Anna from a kind young noble lady to a strong and independent young woman who despite being still kind was not to be trifled with as experienced by the various department heads. Alexander asked for a pen and paper from Anna. Anna took out a notebook and pen from her coat's front pocket, enlarged the notebook and passed it over to Alexander.

Alexander took the notebook with a thankful expression and said, " Anna!! I am happy with the reshuffling, you have done to the departments. You have performed your duties extremely well. I want you to call a meeting with all the department heads tomorrow. I also want an analysis of their personalities from you as you have interacted the most with them. This work of mine would take a long time so you can go now."

Anna gave a nod and said, " Your Majesty, I will have a file containing information about them in send to your room." Anna then, bowed and left.

Alexander turned his attention to the realm gate and started to record the whole procedure of creating the quantum- crystalline metal in the notebook.  As only Alexander could use the realm gate to peer into other worlds, Alexander had to personally record everything down. It took Alexander 5 hours to record the whole procedure. Alexander then rechecked his notes 3 times, to ensure that nothing was left behind. Alexander made three copies of the original notebook and shifted the original one to the secret chamber housing the fire of civilization.

Alexander returned to his room and immediately fell asleep. It was early in the morning that Alexander read the file send by Anna to know about the department heads. Anna who was acting as his representative after getting tired with the squabbling department heads, clubbed all the departments into three departments. The Internal Affairs Department which dealt with all the civilian matters of the kingdom headed by Mr. Jackson who was a middle aged British man with a jolly personality but was quite the perfectionist in relation to his work.

The Military Affairs Department was headed by Mr. Thompson who was an American general who had defeated all his competitors in strategy and commanding to arrive at his position, so he was somewhat arrogant towards others. He was a man with no nonsense attitude and wanted his subordinates to give their best to accomplish the tasks given to them.

The Research and Development Department was headed by Dr. Sinha who was an expert in biotechnology. The reason Dr. Sinha was appointed as the head was because he was a phenomenal mediator and was able to make both the conventional scientists  and non-conventional scientists(aka. the mad scientists) to work together for the betterment of the kingdom. He was generally a  very patient man but was quite a sight to behold once angered. He was quite stressed lately and Anna was sure that another bout of extreme rage would be soon unreleased by Dr. Sinha.
