As for the second message, it came from none but Fang.
[They agreed] he sent, [Do you want to send a contract over to sign now?]
[Who is going to sign it with me?] I knew just using Fang wouldn’t be enough. Such a deal was done on a higher level than what Fang could guarantee.
[The only paragon left here in our race] I didn’t know why, but reading such a message made me feel the urge to laugh.
[Ok, let him sign it before sending it over to me] I paused before adding, [Dude, I did all I could to help you. The rest is all on your shoulders]
[Such a generous human being indeed!] I knew he was acting sarcastic here. [I’ll do what I can. After all I’m now promoted]
[Became what?]
[A senator! Can you believe it?!]
A senator? Wasn’t this the one rank below paragon? [Good! I’d be surprised it they made you a vice senator]
[I thought they’d make me one] he seemed to not yet grasp the full scale of this situation. [But Senators have lots of work to do. So… I might get myself busy during the next period]
[Don’t try to get loose from me, I won’t let you have such a way out] This jerk! What did he think I was? A charity sponsor or something?!!
[You… Who said I’d get away from you? I’m now deeply bound to you like I was your slave!]
[A nice and handsome slave you are] I laughed and the next moment a contract came without him saying a single word. It seemed he was irritated by what he ended up at.
But dude… You never would have any chance at all to even sniff the vice senator rank in your entire life! Be more grateful to your master and show your respect.
I didn’t hurry to sign the contract before rereading it for almost ten times. I took my time even when he tried to rush me up.
[Ok, I signed it] but there was nothing wrong there, [By the way, additional to the humans your race will train, I’ll fetch more humans for you to handle]
[F*ck! You are a bastard, you know that?]
[These humans will be special] I didn’t explain more, [Just be sure to be ready to train much stronger humans than your men]
[I doubt it!]
[We’ll see!]
I closed the chat with him while looking around. This part of the world was now controlled by my monster. Damn! I forgot to tell him about this place.
[Send forces to claim Texas. It’s now under attack by my forces]
[Texas? Isn’t it… Damn! You went this far already!]
[Just send forces to claim it]
[What about the places in between?] he asked and I realised Texas wasn’t directly connected with his territory.
[Leave these to me. I’ll start attacking them now]
[Why do I feel like this entire apocalypse is a bike ride for you? Tell me, do you ever feel afraid?]
Dude! Your race just used a terrifying being to scare the sh*t out of me! Of course I got afraid sometimes. But that didn’t mean at other times, I wouldn’t enjoy my hard earned strength and might.
[I wasn’t born with a golden spoon in my mouth just like you guys]
[Says the devil himself!]
[Shut up and get your forces ready]
[They are. Did you forget? We were preparing to fight you]
[To death, and I saved your pathetic life. So thanks for your appreciation anyway]
[F*ck off!]
[Says the ungrateful bastard]
[Don’t expect thanks from me!]
[I don’t want words, I want actions. Repay what I did with performing better]
[Damn you! Doesn’t your arrogance know a limit or what?]
[It’s not my crime to be a domineering kiddo. You should feel blessed to come into the world where I was born!]
[F*ck you! I’m going to close this damn thing before I kill someone!]
I laughed over his reaction. It seemed he wasn’t the only stressed one out there. I was sure this frustration was a common thing in his race at the moment.
But gradually they’d get used to such situations. Just seeing how far I brought my human race in such unjust circumstances made me feel more pride.
Who else did the same for my race? I doubted it! Even the three mighty kings and queens never had such moments before.
They struggled all the time to just secure a foothold for humans. Even Hilary, the one who once conquered this world, didn’t have such moments… Right?
I might ask her one day, when she would be in a good mood.
Recalling her made me wonder about her current situation. It has been days since I heard any word from her.
[Hey girl, is this how you treat your man when he is away?] I sent, but weirdly enough she didn’t respond as fast as I expected.
What? Don’t tell me she was sleeping right now?
I started to send messages to my team. After all, they were supposed to be together.
But weirdly enough, not a single answer came. That made me feel more annoyed and worried over them.
It was my capital where they all resided. For a reason, all of them went silent and off the grid.
What happened out there?
“Time to work faster,” I looked at the world around before turning East. I had to cover the lands here first. [Can you spare few troops, fast and capable ones, to go all the way East to my capital and see things there for me]
[What happened, bro?]
[I don’t know, and that is something bad in itself]
[Ok, I’ll send my fastest riders out there right now]
I knew I would travel there fast using my staff. But I had to do little work here before going back.
[Are you doing well on your own?]
[What? Planning to leave this place to me?]
[Sh*t seemed to happen back at our capital, so I had to return]
[Damn! What happened while I was away?]
Away my as*! That jumper thought so highly of himself, forgetting that he slept and rested for days without showing his face to the world.
