The mysterious man called himself Ghost, and apparently, Ghost was a mber of an underground organization that had ties with multiple other worlds across the Primordial Expanse! Ghost told the Supre Leader that there was a world out there called the Machina that had a serious grudge against Jason, and the Machina wanted to get revenge! The Machina had both the raw power and the intelligence to kill Jason, but they needed to catch Jason at a point when he let his guard down! If they could do that, then Jason wouldn’t stand a chance!
It had been the perfect opportunity for the Supre Leader to get rid of all his problems! The Supre Leader was the sort of man who did not like the idea of change! He had once been a very powerful man, and he knew that if Jason implented the new world order that he was planning to, then his power would drastically reduce! The Supre Leader was ready to do anything to hold onto the power he once had!
So the Supre Leader had kept an ear out for Jason’s movents and plans, and the mont the Supre Leader heard that Jason was going to be visiting his family in Texas for a picnic, the Supre Leader realised that this was the perfect opportunity to strike! If Jason was with his family, then not only would he let his guard down, but he would also be incapable of using his more destructive abilities since it would definitely affect the regular humans around! This was exactly what the Supre Leader needed to kill Jason once and for all! The Supre Leader had sent the information about where Jason would be and when the Machina needed to strike to Ghost, and the Supre Leader had waited patiently to get the news of Jason’s death.
But everything had gone down the drain when the Supre Leader learnt that not only did Jason survive the attack, but Jason also killed every single Machina that attacked him! The Machina didn’t even manage to kill a single one of Jason’s family mbers! What sort of bullshit was this!
’And now this fool isn’t picking my calls anymore!’
The Supre Leader grit his teeth as he pulled on his hair angrily! Ghost had gone off the grid imdiately the plan failed, and the Supre Leader couldn’t help but think that he had been used! Ghost had just gotten information off him, and now he just discarded him like it was nothing! The Supre Leader let out a harsh breath, and he stared at the ground while trying to bring his mind under control. Things weren’t completely lost yet! It wasn’t completely lost! Even though the Supre Leader had been part of the plan to attack Jason, there was no one else who knew about his involvent other than Ghost. Jason didn’t know who sent the information, and all the Supre Leader needed to do was to act like nothing ever happened.
"Yes... yes, I’m overreacting. No one knows anything. So I’m fine."
"No one knows what."
"EEEEKKK!!"
The Supre Leader scread as he heard a rough voice coming from behind him, and he jumped into the air from the shock! The Supre Leader turned around sharply, and he felt his heart rate rise to unhealthy levels as he saw Jason sitting at his desk while looking through a file calmly. Jason humd as he read through a particular file, and the Supre Leader swallowed as he tried desperately to calm his heart.
"L-Lord Jason. I didn’t know you would be visiting today."
The Supre Leader put on a fake smile as he greeted Jason pleasantly, and Jason looked up from the files for a mont before looking back down again.
"I was just in the area, so I thought I’d stop by. How are things going with the Monarch Guild branch here? Any issues lately?"
The Supre Leader seed to regain so of his calmness when Jason started asking about the Monarch Guild, and he swallowed before saying that everything was going fine.
"The guild branch is nearly completed, and we’re expected to finish before the end of the month."
Jason humd, and he flipped the page. There was a strange calmness around Jason right now that was putting the Supre Leader on edge, but Jason didn’t look like soone who ca here for revenge, and the Supre Leader took that as a good sign. Jason spoke up again to ask another question.
"Your presidential election is coming up soon, right? I saw a lot of campaign posters around when I was coming in."
The Supre Leader was surprised by this question, but he still nodded. His country was going to be carrying out an election soon, but everyone knew it was only a farce. The Supre Leader had never lost an election even once, so he was already certain of his victory. Jason nodded, and he closed the file before speaking with a smile.
"I’d like you to announce your resignation from office and drop out of the presidential race."
"What?"
"You heard ."
Jason’s eyes narrowed, and the Supre Leader stumbled back as a sudden pressure pressed down on him!
Jason stood from his seat and walked out from behind the table slowly, and the Supre Leader fell onto one knee as the pressure threatened to crush him! Jason looked down at the pathetic man kneeling before him, and he spoke in a terrifyingly calm voice.
"Did you really think I wouldn’t find out what you did?"
"!"
The Supre Leader shook when he heard this question, and he tried to stamr out a response, but the pressure pressing down on him was just too intense, and he could only squeeze out one word.
"P-Please!"
Jason stared down at the Supre Leader with disgust. Jason already knew that the Supre Leader was useless to him. The Supre Leader was just a fool who allowed his greed and hatred to control him. Jason found the Ghost that the Supre Leader had given the information to earlier, and it turned out that Ghost had also been ntally manipulated, just like the Machina. But unlike Ghost and the Machina, the Mind Art’s user hadn’t manipulated the Supre Leader because the Mind Art’s user knew that Jason was keeping a close eye on the Supre Leader. Everything the Supre Leader did was out of his own desire to kill Jason!
Jason crouched in front of the Supre Leader and spoke in a terrifyingly calm voice.
"I understand you were desperate to hold onto your power, and if you had simply co after , then maybe we would be having a very different conversation. But you went after my family. You were willing to give out the location of my family’s ho for your stupid ambition, and that is sothing I cannot forgive."
The Leader struggled to look up into Jason’s eyes as Jason continued.
"I am trying to create a new world here, and I will not have the death of a president stain its legacy. So I am giving you twenty-four hours. You will announce your resignation from your seat and drop out of the next election. You will then go on a solo cruise to relax after serving your country faithfully for so long. And on that cruise, you will die."
The Supre Leader’s eyes widened in shock, and he felt his heart beat even faster when he saw the sheer emotionlessness on Jason’s face! It took a very special kind of person to say sothing so ominous to a man with such a straight face, and the Supre Leader realised in that mont that he had ssed with soone who was far more twisted than he thought!
