So I'm a sheep.

"minister"

"Oh, you're not planning to resign?"

"I originally thought you had come to your senses, but it seems that's not the case now."

"So, since I've already admitted defeat, why are you still dragging me back to the department?"

Volume 1: Chapter 363 Adjustment

"Because I am a great angel."

"..."

"Well, the main reason is that I don't want to betray the trust of the Legion Commander and His Highness."

Natalia remained silent, silently watching Sasha.

"Well, actually I'm not very familiar with Lord Rodriguez, so it doesn't matter whether I let him down or not."

“But Princess Hill is my idol! She entrusted the Department of Ideological Education to me, so I have to make the department better, don’t I?”

Seeing that the Seraphim was still staring at her, the little girl said with a serious expression, "That's really the reason, nothing else."

“If you want to make the department better, you should give me another list as well.”

Natalia advised, "That would make His Highness even happier."

"Vice Minister, do you know His Highness very well?"

"Ah, I have no personal relationship with Your Highness, and I would say I don't know you well."

"Since you don't know His Highness Hill, please be careful with your words."

Sasha shook her head: "Let's stop talking about His Highness here. Well, after saying so much, Vice Minister, shouldn't you give me a clear answer?"

Without hesitation, Natalia replied decisively, "Understood. I will take responsibility and keep a close eye on you and the entire Ministry of Ideological Education!"

"Okay, let's agree on three rules!"

.......................................

Ok?

The little girl held up three fingers: "First of all, provided it does not violate the prohibition, if we disagree on something, please keep your opinion to yourself."

"..."

"Minister, are you trying to establish a one-man rule?"

"I'm not saying you can't express your opinion, but the final decision rests with me."

Sasa emphasized, "If you were the minister and I were the deputy minister, then the final decision would be yours; but now I am the minister, so I have the final say. Is there a problem?"

The Seraph remained silent for a moment, then finally nodded.

"Secondly, unless I happen to be away and the matter is extremely urgent, only I can have an audience with Your Highness."

"I also have the authority to see Your Highness."

Natalia frowned and said, "You have no right to deprive me of this right!"

"There was no deprivation, only restrictions."

Sasha said seriously, "Who can stand a deputy minister who reports a minor incident to his superiors without consulting them?"

"This will not only hinder our sincere cooperation, but will also leave His Highness with a very bad impression of our department."

"..."

After a longer silence, the Seraph reluctantly nodded.

"Phew, the last point, and the most important one."

"Vice Minister, I hope you can respect your own minister."

.............................................

"I have always respected you!"

Unexpectedly, this was the 'most important point' that Sasha emphasized. Natalia immediately protested, "Was I disrespectful to you in any way before? If so, please point it out!"

"Although they always addressed me with honorifics, they were very cooperative at the beginning of the work."

"But in your heart, am I just a tool angel sitting in the minister's position?"

Gazing at the Seraphim, the little girl said calmly, "Actually, you don't care who the minister is, because as long as you are here, the Ideological Education Department can operate 'well'."

"My department would be in some trouble without the minister, but it can't function without you."

“Deputy Minister Natalia is indispensable to the Ministry of Ideological Education; the minister is merely a ‘relatively important’ role.”

"You value me, but you don't treat me as an officer, and you don't respect me from the bottom of your heart."

"..."

Natalia's face was blank. Her lips moved, as if she wanted to refute, but she couldn't say anything.

"Haha, Vice Minister, when it comes to assistant angels, I'm much more professional than you."

Sasha said with a smile, "I look forward to the day when you want to exchange experiences with me!"

After agreeing on the three rules, the two ministers of the Ideological Education Department began a difficult period of adjustment.

"Minister, why didn't you pass on the Level 5 cipher to me?"

"You will handle the reports written in ciphertext from level one to level four. I will personally handle the reports written in level five, which is the highest level of ciphertext."

"By the way, I will randomly check the reports you process every day. If necessary, I will make changes to some of the processing results."

"..."

"The department has run into a huge financial hole. How do you plan to solve this problem?"

"Ah, you absolutely can't do things like ribbon-cutting anymore!" Natalia said seriously.

"I know what I'm doing. In another one, um, two months, I guess."

"In two months, I will apply to His Highness for more funds to be allocated to our department each year."

“Minister, I must remind you, this is no small sum.”

Chitian asked in an almost accusatory tone, "What do you plan to do if His Highness doesn't approve it or the Legion Commander objects?"

"So we need to do our best now!"

Sasha grabbed a handful of her hair: "If we show those two that this path is feasible, the funding and everything else will come through, right?"

"..."

"What do you mean?"

"It means I'm confident I can get it approved, so you don't need to worry about it."

"..."

"Minister, I would like to offer my opinion."

"Please speak."

"If the funding application fails in the end, all those additional welfare expenses will have to be cancelled."

"Yes, I will consider it carefully when the time comes."

"besides......"

"Ok?"

"In accordance with Article 237 of the injunction, I hereby solemnly request you—"

"Please place the brooch that the little princess of the Asgardian pantheon gave you behind Gate Number One for safekeeping."

Hey, you're still holding onto the brooch thing?

..............................................

Sasha's cooperation with Natalia was far from pleasant; arguments were common, and it was not uncommon for her to be driven half-mad by another angel.

Even so, the two angels gritted their teeth and persevered through this crucial adjustment period.

"Vice Minister"

"exist!"

"I'm about to set off to visit the Legion Commander, and I'll most likely also have an audience with Prince Hill."

Are you going to apply for funding?

"There are some very important things to discuss, besides applying for funding, there are some other things as well."

"..."

Suddenly, I felt a little insecure.

The young girl hesitated before asking, "Natalia, in your opinion, is our department developing in a positive direction now?"

Volume 1: Chapter 364 Pilot Project

Unusually, the Seraph did not correct Sasha's mistake in addressing her. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Without a doubt, our department is radiating new vitality."

"Although working with you is a struggle, I cannot deny your abilities."

"At this time, the Ministry of Ideological Education was more powerful than ever before."

"And under your leadership, it will become even more powerful!"

Wow, I actually heard Natalia give me a positive review.

"Whoo~"

"Vice Minister, I'm off!"

After watching the little girl walk out the door with her head held high, Natalia thought for a moment and then took the initiative to clean Sasha's water cup.

Previously, the minister would wash my cups for me as a favor, and it wouldn't be good to remain indifferent.
