Chapter 1698: News
The third force is the politician, the ministers.
They are the silent administrator of Pandemonium.
As much as people saw the military power, saw the deeds of the Alchemy Acolytes of Sina, most people did not even see the one that keep it all together.
The low ones.
The ones that is on the background, the paper pushers, the one that approve the sales of lands, the one that keep the energy stones supplied, the ones that make sure the city runs as it should, the city mayors pays their dues, the complaint being heard, all of this and more is because these people make sure that all of this thing is solved.
The politicians of Pandemonium is not like the politician before the Fall. The difference lies in experience.
Not the experience in politics.
But in life.
All of these people that become politician in this era of change, all of them have this burning desire to save the people, change the world, make the world a better and safer place.
Why?
Because they experienced pain. They experience loss. They experience sadness. Death. Despair. Hopelessness.
Before the Fall, the world is full of career politician.
And after the Fall, it is also the same.
But…..change was coming.
The Fall affected everyone.
Yes, there were warlords carving up the world.
There were ambitious men that wanted to take power.
There were unspeakable evil.
Powerful people using their power to do things that are unimaginable cruelty.
Inflicting unnecessary pain and despair.
There was darkness.
Nobody that lives in the early years of the Fall could deny this.
Most of those powerful people that is now up in the pedestal did not escape from doing evil things themselves.
Jean for example slaughter many people when he was conquering Europe. Raymond, bright as he is, was misguided in his attempt and that is the reason why he never wanted to be King again.
Hikigaya and Oreki were both warlords and while their image is beautified nowadays, it is undeniable that they killed people and they did not kill two or three people. But hundreds and thousands of people
However, it is hard to judge them
At that time, the world seems like it was ending.
Everywhere people try to survive.
Some could survive and still maintain some decency.
Some could not.
It is easy for the generation that came after them to point fingers.
But at that time, there was a huge chance that humans could get extinct.
The toll of death at that time was in the billions. Billions of people died in the initial day of the Fall.
It truly felt like the end of the world.
And those people they like to judge were also the one that bring the world back up.
Surprisingly enough, Death Monarch did not kill that many people. At least not personally. But his influence does affect world matters.
The point was that during the early years of the Fall, there was evil.
There was darkness.
But, in this extreme condition of evil, light manage to survive.
Regardless of how the world wanted to judge those great people, Jean, Raymond, Death Monarch, Oreki, Hikigaya and even Hirate all fought for something.
They believe in something and wanted to protect something in a world where no protection could be found.
And then the world adjusted to the darkness and light began to shine even brighter. At that time however, there is still many things that is inherited from the Old World, the Old Era
There was still tension between nations, when the very concept of the old nations slowly faded away.
There is still doubt.
There is still intrigue and schemes.
And politicians is ambitious and cunning
The world was divided again.
Only it was divided only by two organization of power. Death Monarch then formed Pandemonium.
Formalized the world powers, divided the world into seven blocs
But, humanity at this time was still fighting against each other. There was still division.
However, that division would be united
And one event united humanity like it never before.
That event was the Occupation of Weronian
In those years, everyone suffers. Suffers loss and despair. Those who fight in the resistance sees the darkness of war like they never have seen before
Thye see a future where they would be enslaved. Where they would be purged from their own
land.
Their own planet. Nothing united humanity then a common enemy. At that time, even then Crime Alliance offers help to the world powers.
It was a time where old feud was forgotten and new friendship was born
And those politicians that usually plans for their wealth, for their power, for their own well beings…..they change.
Unless, they are true psychopath, anyone with even a shred of kindness in their hearts would be moved and would be saddened by what they see during the Occupation.
Even Hirate change most of his stance and his focus was on the stars after the Weronian
Invasion.
Hence, the politician mostly on Pandemonium, where most of the politician are from exiles of other world powers or people who wanted to escape death during the Weronian Occupation were all very much gung-ho about making Pandemonium safer, making the people happy and making prosperous and strong Pandemonium
This is the third force.
The silent force.
But if they were to be removed from their position, then the entire administration of Pandemonium would be affected
And then there is the force headed by Sasha. The Shadow Guard, the only force in pandemonium that is solely for the protection of interest of Death Monarch
The fourth force in Pandemonium. There is other forces but some of them have decreased in power and influence and could no longer be thought of as powerful enough to be mentioned
as a candidate to vie for the throne.
None of these four forces is at ease with any of the other three forces. The thing is….when
Death Monarch is there, they all could work harmonious with each other
In a way, Death Monarch is like the glue of these powerful forces.
But once the glue is not there, there would be cracks and these forces began to drift away from
each other
Because each of them have different objective, desire and thoughts.
Yes, all these forces wants what is best for Pandemonium.
It is the same for Sina faction, the same for the army and the same for the ministers and the
politicians
It is however not the same for The Shadow Guard.
Their task has never been about protecting the people or protecting Pandemonium.
It has always been about protecting Death Monarch.
That is not a bad thing. After all, Death Monarch is their ruler and he should be protected.
But it is a bad thing when the head of such organization sit on the throne of Pandemonium.
“Maybe, we should call on all the others. Debate this”
Sasha scoffed
“And what would that achieve? None of us is content at seeing the others gains power”
Sasha was about to say something more when suddenly there is a knock on the door.
“Who’s there?”
“Urgent message from the Republic. Time Monarch Jean had sent a message”
Hearing this Sasha immediately opens the door.
There is a messenger in front of the door. With a letter.
Sasha immediately took the letter and the messenger quickly goes away.
Sasha close the door and enters back into the room.
As she is walking back toward the table, she opens the letter
The letters turns into motes of light that enters into her head.
And for a moment Sasha simply closes her eyes, taking in all the information that has been
embedded in the letter.
And then opening her eyes, she shakes her head
“I guess this is all pointless now” Wang Jian hearing this did not understand.
“What do you mean?”
Sasha only chuckles and then look around at the room and nodded.
“It is good enough” “Death Monarch is still on Earth. Jean had noticed the fluctuation of time being tampered.
And there is only one person in the world that could tamper with time while Jean is sitting on
the timeline protecting it from outside influence” But Athena frowned.
“That is not evidence enough. As long as someone is stronger than Jean, then they could
always manipulate time”
“Even though there is not many people that is stronger than Jean in this world, it might came
from another world. This would not be the first time that this world has seen beings from
Otherworlds that possess Essence creation realm powers”
Sasha nodded
“Yes, this alone could not prove that what Jean said is true. But, there is another thing that
Jean mention in his letter that make me confident that our lord is relay still on Earth”
“What?”
‘Our lord is in Moscow right now.” Hearing this all of the three generals look at each other.
Then they nodded
They believe that it is Death Monarch. Everyone knows by now that Death Monarch and the Grand Chancellor of the Republic might be in a relationship
They did not make it clear but judging from many things that has happened, there is a high possibility of this. Sofia on the other hand has been in other parts of the world but Pandemonium. there is rumours that they might have broken up
So, the rumours that Death Monarch and Katarina is now together is even stronger than
before And now, that Sahs said Death Monarch could be seen in Moscow, is it not clear who that person is? It is clear as day for Death Monarch subordinate.
Death Monarch always does whatever he wanted. This is on brand on his demeanour.
Sasha then said
“How about you all follow me in inviting our lord back home?” Hearing this Wang Jian,
Athena and Freya smiles and nodded
“This is the best way to solve this. “
Sasha then waves her hand and everything in the room is now cleaned up. Then with Wang Jian, Athena, and Freya following behind her, she fly off from the Centre Palace. Behind him, the three Great Generals is following behind her. They did not even think of bringing an entourage or their elite soldiers to follow them
Because they really fears that by the time they finished organizing all of this entourage, Death
Monarch would once again dissever.
And unlike before, nobody has the confidence to seek Death Monarch if he disappears again.
This is probably a weird occurrence that someone had to chase their won king and hoping to bring him back to his throne.
