Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 1144 - 159 Seven Songstresses Alliance_2

'I think it's too late to do anything now. We've ignored this issue for so many years, and now trying to appease people all of a sudden seems a bit perfunctory and disrespectful,' an unconcerned member of the council casually remarked. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"Probably after the discussion, they'll still send troops. The question is how long it'll take and how much budget they'll need to allocate."

"If Blanche had been kept in the Central Star Domain back then, so many things wouldn't have happened afterward."

"Anyway, if the sky falls, there will be tall people to hold it up. I won't put myself in the spotlight at this critical moment, inviting trouble. They can do whatever they want. After a few years, I'll retire and enjoy my old age."

"Why don't we send a few songstresses from our side as ambassadors to promote the decision of the Central Council across the various star domains? That way, wouldn't the local star domain officials take action? They seek fame and want to gain political capital."

"Who should we send? The older generation of songstresses have retired, and those with experience are protecting themselves, unwilling to muddy their names and reputations in this mess. Maybe only the younger songstresses can be persuaded to call for action."

"This suggestion seems pretty good, I think we can discuss it later. Of course, we can't be too blunt about it since songstresses are the face of the administration."

...

Three days later, Tilan, far away in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain, received a notification.

"They want me to return to the Central Star Domain to assist the Federation's stability work there," Tilan explained to those around her after reading the letter.

"Being asked to go back at this time, it must be related to the unrest in the Western Star Domain," Yalian analyzed from the side.

"In my opinion, it sounds like those old guys couldn't handle it, and now they're planning to let the big sister take the brunt. If successful, they'd be happy beyond measure, but if not, it's the big sister who suffers and gets her image ruined," commented Kinsenke from the other side, lounging on the sofa with his head resting on his hand. In the years unseen, his personality has grown increasingly carefree and bold.

"I think at this time we should reach out to other songstresses of our age group who are familiar to discuss future strategies together," suggested another secretary from the community.

Using the Aijieka Network, Tilan contacted familiar figures like Audrey, Shui Yanqing, and also inquired about the current situation in the Central Star Domain from Ores.

"It's very complicated..." Ores showed a rare moment of hesitation.

"Luo Fenghua advised me not to return," Audrey replied.

"My identity is quite sensitive, and I can't get involved in such matters," Shui Yanqing stated, mentioning that she hadn't received any related notifications.

Even among the songstresses, the situations they face vary significantly.

"I understand," Tilan acknowledged.

Shortly after, Tilan concluded the discussions and then sought advice from Mrs. Isabella, who suggested finding a reason to delay for a few days and observe the situation.

Sure enough, on the fifth day, Tilan received another invitation.

The notification was delivered by a man in a dusky gold crisply uniform. Upon opening the envelope, there was a semi-transparent gauzy sheet inside, with fire-red gilded writing stating the identity and reason for the invitation in both warm and formal tones.

'Falling Cloud Gauze' Masha, a songstress from the Southeastern Region of the Federation, hails from the Gradual Reddish Star Domain; her fame spans over 30 years, slightly later than Yulanduoja but no less influential, being one of the few Moon Level songstresses in the Southeastern Region and at a prime age, with considerable experience and power. Even the large business alliance 'Southern October Star' has grown and strengthened due to her influence.

"This invitation might be impossible to refuse," Tilan said to her companions after reading the invitation letter.

While the situation in the Central Star Domain wasn't of much personal concern to her, many giant businesses in the Four-leaf Crystal Star Domain, and the Edith Academy behind her, had connections to 'Southern October Star'. Being a well-connected songstress who had also benefited from such alliances, it indicated that although she hadn't met many, in terms of relationships, she should stand together with them.

A few days later, Tilan arrived at the Gradual Reddish Star Domain aboard a superluminal starship.

"Welcome~"

Upon disembarking from the starship, Tilan saw Masha, who had come specially to greet her at the Star Harbor. This senior songstress wore a long gown of gold-threaded red silk with a thin veil on her face, a Golden Branch Crown on her head, and was followed by hundreds dressed in the dusky gold uniforms, both men and women, all above Sequence 6 in strength. Their presence was indeed extraordinary.

Side by side, the two progressed as the followers arranged in two columns behind. Soon, Tilan and Masha boarded the same shuttlecraft, heading to a planet below, where several songstresses had already arrived ahead of them.

'Thorny Elegy' Inor, 'Rin Sparrow' Kajelin, 'Stone Blue Flower' Greer, 'Toxic Dream Scorpion' Yahemos, 'Nine-colored Nautilus' Muyawadi, save for the retired 'Cui She' Yulanduoja, and the absent 'Flame Sugar' Prin and 'Polka Dot Recorder' May, gathered here are all the songstresses from the Southeastern Region's star domains.

"Tilan, you should settle here and practice. Tomorrow, I'll introduce you to the other songstresses," Masha gently informed the upcoming plans through her veil.

"Hmm, thank you." Though still unsure why Masha had gathered these songstresses together, as it seemed without malice, Tilan decided to observe for some time.
