Lord Shadow Chapter 1762: Twenty Years Later II



The Cri Alliance learns sothing very important from their failures

And it is that from the very beginning, they should never have stepped into that other side of the ring.

When they were doing business with the World Governnt and the other world power, they were quite prosperous.

But once they reached to touch the power of the world, they gain worldwide condemnation.

Why?

Because the world only needed that one-person condemnation.

Once that one person condemns you, then the whole world must condemn you.

And who is this one person?

None other than the strongest person in the world Death Monarch

Death Monarch was the first that fight against the Cri Alliance.

Most people fight for interest. And most of the world powers fight each other for interest, for resources, for weapon

No one is like Death Monarch.

He simply didn't like that cri organization gathers around and do more cri. At that ti, the Cri Alliance was not quite like it is now.

They are the profiteers of wars; they are the lords that sell people and the manner of their cri are all mostly punishable by death even before the Fall.

Now, one could consider that the Cri Alliance has all sorts of criminals from the not so serious one to the more sinister and cruel cri.

At that ti, the den of evil is basically what Cri Alliance was.

And because Death Monarch did not like this, he fights.

And he was rciless.

Just like those criminals was rciless against their victim, Death Monarch is even more rciless than them

Beast do not understand human words and they only understand beastly thod.

Azief uses a beastly thod to make Criem Alliance understood sothing.

If you wanted to be treated like humans, use human thods.

The other world powers was content in closing one eyes to the Cri Alliance until it beco so powerful that it could even dictate the negotiations between them and the world powers.

But if you think Death Monarch fight against the Cri Alliance because of such concern, you would be disappointed.

Death Monarch has always been the kind of person that is not easily understood among those profit seeking rulers.

Because sotis, he could just flip the board if he did not like how the chess pieces are fighting.

The reason why he could do this is simply because he has the pow to flip the chess board.

They were shocked at that ti and they fear the sky. Fear for a red thunderbolt to smite them and they were like rats running all over.

They hide in the dark alley and they did not dare shows their face.

And then when Death Monarch is absent in the world, going to that other world to save Katarina, the Cri Alliance once again shows its face toward the world

And then they allied with the pirates, et Kaiju, gain the Trident and gain another chance to subvert the world order

The second battle with the Cri Alliance is not only Death Monarch against the Cri Alliance. This ti the whole world follows his lead.

Is it just because Death Monarch words?

No.

It is also because the Cri Alliance reach their hands to touch things that are not theirs. They overreach and touches thing that they should not touch

What they touch is the interest of the powerful.

They touch the interest of the world powers and make them wary of them

If the power did not fit the position, than that position could not be held for long

That is what happen to the Cri Alliance.

They expand their influence to carelessly and lead to a situation where they are besieged with all the seven great powers.

The reaction of the seven-world power would not be that explosive if they didn't find a candidate like Kaiju and give him the power like Death Monarch

Ince the other world powers find out that the Cri Alliance has reached such a point that they could even compete with Pandemonium, each of the six great powers all realized that this

small force now even has the power to threaten them

Hence, the twenty years suppression by the world powers.

Now, that they know their place, they beco even more low profile and they choose a different tactic

They wanted to be a spider that has its webs all over the world.

And with Death Monarch rarely making a move they manage to exert their influence in the

Seven Seas.

But they always knows when to not show themselves and they did not do things in flamboyant way. Always in the dark, always in the shadow and always subtle.

If they do large things, they would make sure that they already have a backup plan for

survival.

This is the new direction of the Cri Alliance.

And because of this successful strategy, in the twenty years since the war, The Red Table

manage to unite the criminal world and give them a direction.

And they have their own laws and code to deal with things.

And the world powers and the criminal underworld also seems to have reached an agreent.

The suppression of the world powers has abated a bit in the last five years

The dispute of the criminal underworld must not spill to innocent people

Once they do, and if that innocent people turns out to be one of the people of the seven great power, then what awaits the Cri Alliance would be a great suppressions.

Of course, this is just the warning of the world powers. The world powers did not have authority everywhere.

Not to ntion, it is even harder tom maintain control over so regions that is millions of

miles away.

Most of the far border is basically like a different regi sotis, with the officials there

acting like kings or ruler.

The control of the world powers is not as absolute as before.

Most have adopted centralized manner near the capital but decentralized nature in the

countryside.

Powerful families, clans and groups rises like mushroom in the world powers

Even Pandemonium could not avoid this.

In twenty years, many things had change even under the guise of peace. One of the most shocking thing to happen was that The World Governnt had its first election.

The candidate was from the Quorum Council mbers.

And in this shocking and unprecedented election to choose the ruler of the World

Governnt, the winner was Raymond.

It is not the fact that Raymond wins the election that shock the world. It is the fact that there

is an election in the first place.

Hirate really did what he said he would do

Everyone expected that he is just giving lip service to people when he said that he would surely implent election for the position of the World Governnt leader

He not only promoted the election the transferal of power and authority of the President of

the World Governnt was transferred peacefully without any need for military intervention

A peaceful transition of power.

Everyone expected that when Raymond won, Hirate would not let it go.

But instead, everything was very anticlimactic.

There is no scene of two good friend breaking up and fighting for power

Instead, Hirate gives his farewell speech and the power was transferred to Raymond.

But then a more puzzling thing happens. Raymond was elected and beco the Second President of the World Governnt.

Yet, he is also the Grand Commanded of the Unified Command of the World Governnt. The title is long but basically he has the power to mobilize every single unit that the World

Governnt has.

In the past, the President governs the officials and administer the world.

There is also the Supre Judge that controls the law of the World Governnt and who is

also the head of the Quorum Council

Raymond controls the military; the security of the World Governnt and he was also the

Minister of War.

But now, that he is President, who else is supposed to hold that position?

No one could convince the soldiers like Raymond.

Not to ntion, in the World Governnt, Raymond is the only Divine Comprehension

leveler.

Taking his military power could only be done by the President

Or the Quorum Council decree. But he is the President. And the Quorum Council still want to

lives.

And that is not the only problem of electing Raymond to the position of President.

Raymond is rarely on Earth.

He is usually in space.

Most of the ti to monitors the sky.

Sotis, to train there.

And when he does appears in the world, he would be in other parts of the world, either

hunting dangerous beast or fighting so fringe forces.

He is also exploring the world and sotis, Raymond would go into separate dinsion

and could not be contacted in those tis

This is a person more suitable to beco a great general than a ruler.

But the people had elected him because for the people of the World Governnt, if they could

not elect Hirate, they would elect Hirate most closest friend.
