There are only a few hundred professional hunters in the entire world. They enjoy all kinds of privileges that are beyond the imagination of ordinary people and are the undisputed experts in their respective fields.

"I am a crime hunter who usually captures high-risk international criminals. This time, I am here at the invitation of a prince to take care of some business."

Dia paused for a moment, then made up a reason on the spot.

"Huh? A criminal hunter? A member of royalty? Are they here to arrest some member of royalty?"

Ottosin asked in surprise.

"Idiot! How could that be! The Justice Bureau isn't just for show, and besides, have you ever seen royalty arrested?"

Momo impatiently waved her hand to shut Ottosin up, then explained to Dia:

"The country's veneration of royalty is deeply ingrained. There used to be a joke that if someone threw a stone at royalty, they would arrest the person, build a prison out of the stone, and lock the person up in there, so that both the person who offended royalty and the stone would be imprisoned."

Her words made it clear that royalty in Kakin was not to be offended, serving as a warning to Dia.

Dia smiled and replied nonchalantly:

"I understand, but the prince I'm going to meet is one of our own, so there shouldn't be any extreme situations."

"Yes, they're on our side..."

Poxon muttered something sourly, but Dia pretended not to hear. Then she turned to Momo and asked:

"Momo, is there something you need from me?"

"It's not really anything serious, it's just that after you left, everyone felt like they were missing their leader, so when they saw you come back, they wanted to ask about you."

Momo straightened up and said shyly.

Of the six, the other five, except for Pokson, deliberately chose to keep a low profile and avoid standing out because they disagreed with the fourth prince's behavior.

Normally, it is Pokson, who has a stronger leadership quality, who leads them.

“You know, we don’t actually agree with it…”

Momo paused, glanced at Dia, and hesitated whether to continue.

Upon seeing this, Pokson said:

"You don't agree with what the Fourth Prince did, do you?"

Momo breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Poxon's response indicated that Dia knew about these things, so there was no need to hide anything.

"...Yes, so after you left, everyone felt that you had given up on seeking opportunities for advancement under Celli and had turned to other directions."

“In the days you were away, we all hesitated about whether to follow in your footsteps and choose another path, but we were afraid of being attacked and retaliated against, after all, we don’t have the close relationship with regular troops like you and Tita.”

As she spoke, Jasmine sighed. Ordinary soldiers like them, unwilling to climb the ranks, could only tread carefully.

“I don’t recommend that you resign as well… at least not now. I’ve come back to take on a more dangerous mission, but I probably won’t be working under the Fourth Prince anymore.”

Pokson said seriously:

"It involves some confidential information that I cannot disclose right now, but in a few days, I may have a way to solve your problem."

Chapter 346 Real Selection × Qiduo Doll

After seeing the two off, Dia had some idea about Poxon's thoughts.

"Do you think it's okay to turn them into Mumuze's private army?"

Diya looked at Poxon, who was busy, and asked.

Miss Poker, who was washing the dishes she had just finished eating, responded with a soft "hmm" upon hearing this:

"Momo and the others are my good friends from King's Military Academy, and I think they are trustworthy."

When the six of them were together, they never hid their dissatisfaction with Celidonich's brutality.

It's important to know that criticizing royalty behind their backs is a serious offense in Kakin, ranging from minor enough to be ignored to serious enough to result in immediate execution!

This shows that they trust each other quite a lot.

Moreover, in contrast, Mu Muze's gentleness has always been well-known. If someone were to give them a push, it wouldn't be impossible for these already outstanding soldiers to change their ways.

The reason they served as contract soldiers under the Fourth Prince instead of regular soldiers was simply because they still had expectations of Celidonich.

Poxon sighed, his tone slightly complicated:

"That's too naive. Maybe Celidonich would have maintained a good friendship with us during his time at military school, but after graduation, he never pretended to be that person again."

"They wishfully thought that maintaining the status quo would at least prevent the originally pure 'friendship' from being corrupted, but only I, who have tried to climb up the ladder, know that Celidonich had long forgotten about them."

"Once they witness his current behavior, Momo and the others will definitely try to escape their current identities without hesitation. At that time, serving under the Twelfth Prince will be a better choice."

Dia nodded, and after thinking for a moment, said:

"How can you guarantee they'll succeed? The process of becoming a private soldier must be very complicated, right?"

"In fact, the process for each prince to recruit his private army is different."

Pokson set down the bowl and chopsticks, wiped his hands, turned around, and sat down next to Dia, saying:

"For example, the Ninth Prince's private army was recruited directly from the public, while the Second Prince, quite strangely, chose to recruit from the 'Unsustainable People'."

"If you're asking whether they'll definitely join the Twelfth Prince's camp without any special external forces, I can't guarantee that."

"What do you mean by external force?"

"you."

Dia raised an eyebrow, looking at Poxon's serious expression.

Did they want him to persuade Mumu Ze to open a back door? It's not that he can't do it, but how did Pokson know that he could persuade Mumu Ze?

"You want me to negotiate with Mumu Ze and ask them to give us special treatment?"

Pokson was taken aback upon hearing this:

"Huh? How is that possible? Setting up private armies is the most important job for every prince. Are you and the twelfth prince that close?"

She cast a suspicious glance at Dia. Although she knew he was close to the twelfth prince, it seemed a bit strange that they were this close.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became strange.

Dia chuckled dryly, seemingly unconcerned, and changed the subject:

"That's definitely not going to work. I was just saying it offhand (⊙_⊙)."

"...Never mind, what I actually meant was that I wanted you to teach them Nen abilities."

This wasn't the first time Poxon had seen Dia feign ignorance; he made a mental note of it and then continued explaining his plan:

“Even if they only learn the most basic Nen, they should be able to stand out in any selection process, and I believe that with their aptitude, it’s impossible for them not to learn Nen.”

If she could recruit a group of Nen users under Mumu Ze's command, her safety could be better guaranteed.

After a moment's thought, Dia took out her phone and said:

"Don't rush to think about things that far ahead. Right now, we don't even know what that 'turning point' Mark was talking about is. Let me ask him for you."

As he spoke, he immediately dialed Mu Muze's private contact number.

After a brief busy tone, the call was connected, and a lively voice immediately came out:

"Hello? Professor Diya, are you calling me because you're planning to come to Kajin?"

Pokson was taken aback. The twelfth prince actually had a private phone number?

Dia gestured for her to be quiet, and then said:

"Yes, I'm already on the airship. I should arrive in Kakin tomorrow. I'm calling now mainly to ask how things are going on your end. Why did you leave so suddenly?"

"Well... I was originally planning to tell you after you arrived, but since you asked directly, Professor Dia, I won't keep you in suspense any longer."

Mumu Ze's voice suddenly became serious:

"Although you refused before, I would like to invite you again seriously. Diya, would you be willing to become my private soldier?"

Her voice came through the microphone, and Dia and Poxon looked at each other in surprise.

After a while, Pokson realized what was happening and frantically waved his hands at Dia, shaking his head like a rattle drum.

Seeing this, Dia asked calmly:

"What's going on? Did the royal family give you instructions?"

"Hmm, the Royal Army suddenly issued an [impeachment order] to Mother..."

Mu Muze's voice lowered slightly:

"They impeached my mother for leaving Kakin without the protection of soldiers to come to you, claiming that she was negligent and deliberately ignored or even harmed the prince—that is, me."

"If the impeachment order is to be lifted, Mother must guarantee within seven days that I recruit at least one private soldier who has passed the King's Army's vetting process, and that he cannot be one of her direct subordinates."

Dia understood. The King's army's order, seemingly targeting Queen Seranghi, was actually a way to indirectly force Mumu Ze to recruit private soldiers.

During this process, the appearance of the "impeachment order" was timely, precisely seizing on Mumu Ze's only weakness—his unauthorized departure.

The final result will either be that Mumu Ze starts recruiting private soldiers according to their wishes, or that Princess Serwangi will be impeached and suffer a loss on both sides.

Moreover, they not only upheld the noble cause of protecting the royal family, but also fully complied with laws and regulations. It can be said that this order was used quite brilliantly.

'If I'm not mistaken, the "at least one privately appointed soldier" refers to Pokson...'

Dia roughly understood the intentions of the King's Army, or rather the Fourth Prince's influence within the King's Army.

Actually, the situation isn't that bad; we can even just go with the flow.

Dia decisively reached out and pressed down the flailing Poxon, then spoke into the phone:

"Don't worry, I'll come to your palace tomorrow and we'll talk things out then."

After saying that, he hung up the phone immediately, looking at Pokson who seemed to have something to say:

"Don't you want me to agree to her request and become a private soldier of the royal family?"

Pokson nodded seriously and said:

“Private soldiers have to pass the King’s Army’s inspection. They will check everything from your birth certificate to your university diploma. If you are a foreigner, you will have to change your nationality and the inspection will be even more stringent.”

"Even with the prince's strong support, if you pass the review, you will still need to undergo more than three months of intensive training in a closed environment to ensure that you can fully perform the duties of this position."
