Chapter 1712: Distributing the Lot of the World II
There is a reason why Jean nodded at this proposal
Before, he came here he reads the result of the debate in the Senate about this matter.
The seas that they chose to protect their new continent changes many times during the debate. Some said that the Sea of Light is better. Other suggested the Cloud Sea. But most of them wanted the Whirling Sea.
Since Pandemonium probably would choose the Turbulent Sea, then they should choose the Whirling Sea
The Whirling Sea is a sea that also have characteristic of the Turbulent Sea and the Illusory Sea.
The only downside of the Whiling Sea is that it is more unstable than the Turbulent Sea. This is not to say that the Turbulent Sea itself is stable. But when compared, it is clear that Turbulent Sea, for all of its horror stories is not as terrifying as the Whirling Sea.
Not to mention, that Jean wanted to use the characteristic of the Whirling Sea to increase his understanding of his own Time Law.
And Katarina did not object
Azief waited to see of anyone would object but the moment passes without any objection. At this, Azief could see the power of the influence of the Republic.
It is nothing like before. Even though the Republic lost Boris, their influence instead of waning, become stronger.
Jean is standing on the seat of power and he alone could stabilize the world.
Jean existence right now is the same as Azief existence in Pandemonium. Though, that is not necessarily a good thing for the Republic.
Even though the Republic seems strong right now and have no problems but if the report Sasha gave to him is to be believed, the stronger Jean influence in the Senate become, the more problems it would breed.
Azief only smiles and nodded at Jean
“Whirling Sea it is”
By now, the lot of the world has been distributed.
Pandemonium got the Turbulent Sea.
The Free Continent get the Illusory Sea with most of it would shroud the island continent of Japan
The Wilderness will get the Sea of Monster.
The Republic chooses the Whirling Sea
The Order of Thinkers get the Blood Sea
Out of the Ten Seas, five had already been allotted.
“League of Freedom wanted the Sea of Light to cover the Central American continent” Hikigaya suddenly said even before Azief could speak about the Sea of Light
Azief head tiled a bit and there is a smile forming on his mouth as he look at Hikigaya “I didn’t know that Japan has great enough relationship with the Leage of Freedom that they would raise their voice through you” Raymond look at Hikigaya with complicated expression
The World Government and the Leage of Freedom has been feuding since the formation of the Leage of Freedom.
Even until today, Raymond did not understand what motivates Narleod that much to keep going out of his way to always go against the World Government.
Azief himself has met Narleod. And there is this evaluation he had of the man wearing a bandage all over his body
A crazy obsessed man. Usually, obsession could lead to seeing one own Grand Path But, the kind of obsession that Azief meant was the obsessions toward one own path. Of seeing the essence. The obsession to move forward, to do your best
But the kind of obsession that Narleod had toward the World Government is the kind of obsession that entangles cause and effect.
That kind of obsessions is not only dangerous. It is also destructive. Azief look left and right, looking at Hikigaya smiles and Raymond complicated gaze.
Azief did not need to say anything. Instead, it is more like the mood is the kind of mood where you should not say anything.
Azief like this tension between the world powers.
Yes, Azief did not want them to go to war to each other.
But this did not necessarily means he wanted them to be chummy with each other either.
Just at the right distance.
Enough complication that they would never be truly united.
As long as they maintain that distance, peace and order could still be established.
It is ironic that the world still stands precisely because the world powers has contradiction with each other and could not unite against each other
Azief once though that if everyone could unite under one banner everyone would be happy. But when he had seen many things, he understand that sometimes contradiction is important. And even more so, to have different voice
In this world, if only one person is to rule all the world, one mistake could topple and destroy the world
Maybe there is a way to rule the world alone. Maybe, one force could rule the world and bring peace and prosperity.
But if there, Azief still could not see it. And before he could see it, he would not implement it.
Hikigaya then look at Raymond on the other side of the table and he sighed
“You should not blame me Raymond”
“The League of Freedom has always been our enemy”
“Narleod is obsessed with the World Government. Not with Japan. I am now out of the World Government. I am not even one of the world powers. The reason that I am here is simply because I could help Death Monarch in completing his plans. When the world is divided, then, how could I rest easy knowing how vindictive Hirate could be? I should find some allies don’t
you think?”
“Greece is not enough?”
“Don’t forget Raymond. I also know all of those secret things that Hirate hides inside that
secret lab of his. Yes, Greece is not enough. The kind of horrors that Hirate stuff inside that lab would even make me have nightmares and that is saying something”
“This is just self-preservation moves”
Raymond snorted hearing Hikigaya justification
“Your action would destabilize the order. The world does not need another bloc of power”
Hikigaya rose up from his seat and pointed his hand toward Raymond
Clearly being berated by Raymond triggers him. Even in the World Government, he was never being berated like this.
“I am not asking your opinions on how to do things, Raymond. Do not forget I am no longer a person of the World Government. I am not a Quorum Council member and you are not my
Supreme Commander”
Raymond being pointed his hand, even though he also has mild temper also got up from his seat, his body burst out with aura of power, distorting space and time around him.
He pointed his finger back at Hikigaya and spoke
“Even so, you should not have allied with the league of Freedoms. Anyone else and I would not have reacted like this. It is not like you don’t know how complicated the relationship between the World Government and the Leage of Freedom. After all, you once sit in the same room with me and we use to fight together. This….. is not something that I expected from you” Rightouenses. Justice. Loyalty. This is the virtue that Raymond believe. But his righteousness and his justice, and his loyalty is not Hikigaya righteousness, not his justice and not his
loyalty.
The things they value is different and as such now they sit at opposite table with different
interest and desire.
“What! You are not satisfied!”
Oreki suddenly rose up from his seat, and at the same time outside the room, on the skies of Pandemonium, the laws of the world stirred
And the reporters and the people who is near the central region of Pandemonium could feel it.
And could see it
If they just look upwards, they could see it. The dark clouds gathered, and destructive aura seems to converge over the central region
lightning thundered outside the Palace, dark clouds gathers, slithering lightning bolts began
to appears swirling around the clods and the skies, like dragons swimming across the clouds.
Inside the room Oreki body exploded with lightning arcs that slithers across the ground and covers the ceiling of the room.
Jean opens his eyes and he waves his sleeve. The aura that they released was contained in one
place
Raymond had already gotten up and Hikigaya had also gotten up.
Tension rises almost instantly, the laws and concepts of the world was stimulated, the gods
are angry and the world trembles, the sea shakes the skies split apart
Their feelings and movement affect the Heaven and Earth.
But the fact that the earth and skies did not go war against each other outside of the palace is proof enough that these two people did not want to fight against each other
Azief seeing this could see that none of them wanted to reach a point where they battle each
other
After all, it is not really something they wanted.
The whole world knows that they are here today to discuss the Ten Realm Project. If they go
out and fight each other, Azief is quite sure that before the day ends, the White Owls would
make all kinds of headline and might even lead to a cold war between Japan and the World
Government
And then a new grudge would be formed. Escalation is then waiting on the corner. And once that begins to happen, who knows what it would lead to.
A war is not something this world powers wanted. But sometimes, it is no up to them. When
all events conspire to lead them to one decision, then all they could do is to obey destiny.
Hence, before that point is reached, de-escalation is necessary
A step down. That is what is needed at this point.
They both wanted to deescalate but none of them wanted to appear weak. Even more so when
Oreki stand up.
