Now reading: Chapter 1763: Twenty Years Later III from Lord Shadow, a Fantasy novel by Keikokumars.



But look at how busy Raymond is?

He could lead but he is certainly not that kind of ruler that could administer the world.

He could learn and it is not hard for him to learn. But for soone like Raymond, does he like to learn things like this?

Raymond is soone who could reach transcendence status in the future, becoming even more powerful and there is no limit to his breakthrough.

So people would not be able to breakthrough after Disk Formation.

But for people like Death Monarch, Hikigaya, Oreki, and Raymond who all perfected their foundation, always ready to leap forward, reaching ever higher, how could they value such mortal position?

Death Monarch rarely administer Pandemonium but is Pandemonium in chaos?

No, it is not.

Is it because all the subordinate of Death Monarch are all competent?

No

It is simply because their leader is like a God. Betraying him, there would no place on Earth that would accept them and could shelter them

They did not dare to do things that cross the line.

It is clear Raymond is not that interested in the position of the Second President of the World Governnt.

But it would not be good if he left it unattended so he created the position of regent just like when Death Monarch created the position of a regent and let Loki govern Pandemonium for him

Raymond left this regent position to his right-hand man General Jesse.

Actually, when he first return to the island of Peace and found out he won the election and wanted to create a regent position, the first na that co into his mind was Hirate.

But if he choose Hirate as his regent, then what was that election is all about?

It would be a farce election so; Raymond choose his most trusted man to lead the World Governnt and only if there is truly sothing important that he would step in.

For most of the matter of the World Governnt Raymond would trust all of it to be executed by Jesse

Who is Jesse?

This is a man known to be one of the loyal retainers of Raymond. He is like a brother to Raymond.

He started his career when he first followed Raymond after the Fall. He followed the coup of Leonard, the first leader they have.

He is the one that convince Raymond to take the leadership of the small group in the beginning from Leonard

Since then, he has reached a high position and he is now a general.

He has his own unit.

He has been fighting in many regions of the world from Asia to Europe, from the sea to the mountains.

He is a capable general, knows when to attack and when to retreat, quick and decisive in action.

It is amazing if you know how he started and how he was before he is now. A scrawny kid who likes to read comic is now battle hardened general.

When he walk into a room, his pressure could overwhelm people. A ferocious and a man with little words to say.

He is now more of a military man. And that is his strength. But also, his weakness.

Since he more of a general than a ruler, he did not know how to govern most of the territories of the World Governnt.

In the end, Hirate had to help him behind the scene.

The election was held so that no one should hold the position for too long.

Yes, Hirate hold that position for almost a decade.

No one complained because to most people in the world right now.

ten years is not long.

Just by breaking through to Energy Disperse stage you would live for hundreds of years.

For Disk Formation, unless they use up their energies they could basically live for thousands of years.

Ten years compared to thousands of years is just but a speck of dust.

But as Hirate maintain great influence among the people of the World Governnt, it seems like he is the unofficial monarch of the World Governnt

The Quorum Council sees this a concerning sentint. The World Governnt is not entirely democratic.

And they never claid to be. But that did not an that they are an authoritarian regi

They were practical enough that they knew in a ti of ergency, a strong leader is necessary to control the organized effort.

Two heads would make the people confused and in a situation where clear commands is necessary; it is permissible to use a more dictatorial ans to lead.

And clearly the Quorum Council mber was right.

Because of this thod, the World Governnt quickly stands out among the other organizations in the early years of the Fall.

Those who spits words like liberty over security does not understand that when the Fall happens, there is nothing more important than survival

To talk about liberty, you must first at least secure a living.

When you are busy fighting for power and influence, the group dissolve and then you have neither liberty and safety

Of course, in the beginning, Hirate was the founder of the World Governnt.

Hence, he was the architect of the rise of the World Governnt.

And it is precisely because he is the founder that no one could find any reason to force him to

stand down.

But now that the world is stable, the council mbers fears that if Hirate keeps being the President of the World Governnt, it would give the wrong impression that the position is a

permanent one.

When the matter was first brought up in the Quorum Hall, everyone was watching Hirate

reaction.

Hirate simply nodded and acknowledge the matter and then begins an election.

If he put his na in the ballot then it would show that he did not intend to transfer the power

But the fact that he did not put his na in the running candidate make everyone finally heave

a sigh of relief.

Because everyone knows if Hirate put his na in the running ballot, most people would

choose him.

The World Governnt has its ups and down but Hirate has managed it pretty well.

So people that only knows the defeat but does not know his victory would not understand why the World Governnt citizens would choose Hirate.

He lost against Death Monarch but which world powers in the world would not lose against Death Monarch?

At least, the World Governnt even fight with Death Monarch! That alone is a point of pride for the citizens of the World Governnt.

And if one has to say which citizens of the world that has the highest living standards and

quality of life, it would be the people of the World Governnt.

Even Pandemonium could not surpass the World Governnt on this.

Pandemonium is not a nation.

At least not initially.

It is a continent cleared out by Death Monarch.

He brought his people with him.

Then people co.

More people co after seeing that the people who co in the first batch was not expelled

Then these people gather together

Villages were ford, cities rises up, and nation state began to prosper.

And since they all live in the continent that was cleared out by Death Monarch, they recognize

the sovereignty of Death Monarch over them, making Death Monarch their ruler.

One could argue that Death Monarch probably did not even care about these people in the

beginning.

But since there is more and more people that ca to the continent and they all wanted to work under him, Azief created a simple system with him as the head of state.

An absent one usually but his prestige alone is enough to deter the world.

And so, Pandemonium was ford.

If one has to answer which world power is the strongest, no one would have any doubt that

the title would belong to Pandemonium.

Most people that co to Pandemonium are hardy people. They are stubborn, strong and

fierce.

Precisely because of that they are prone to danger.

Death Monarch himself did not create so many regulations.

Most of the people in Pandemonium is unruly and they are strong. It is like a gathering of all

kinds of powerful righteous warrior.

Their conflict is also about ideals.

Only those kind of people would thrive in Pandemonium.

Why?

Because their head of state is not soone that could tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes.

He nearly cripple all of the Cri Alliance operation.

He did not like criminals.

And criminals also hated him.

This does not an cri doesn't happen in his region.

But the cri that happens is usually does not reach the point where the heaven is angry and

the earth is sad

In a chaotic but powerful society like in Pandemonium, the pursuit of power is paramount

which left a lack of peace, and the quality of life and standard of living is quite different.

They are hardy people, and they are people reliant only on the strength of their fist. In a way, martial virtue is venerated in Pandemonium.

A fight between two people would simply be allowed as long as they did not destroy public

property.

Hell, they could even duke it out all the way to their death as long as they did not destroy

public property.

And the winner would even beco a guest in so dignitaries houses.

But the World Governnt is different
