It's All Part of the Plan

After the speech, Alexander left the balcony and shook hands with the Imperial Council who attended as well as the elites who are prospecting to invest in his grand ambitious plan. 

Sevastian was the last person he shook his hand with, who was beaming a smile.

"Your Majesty, the speech is magnificent. Your use of humanity's invention over the course of a million years struck our hearts. And the last part where you declared we are going to the moon sends chills to my very being. Oh, Your Majesty, there are no perfect words to describe how jubilating your announcement would be to your people." Alexander cringed at him for his over-the-top praise. 

"Sevastian, please act properly. Your vehement praise has made me feel quite uncomfortable. Truly it is embarrassing."
