Chapter 1524 One Last Piece



As for the Republic, there was Jean.

Jean should rest after what he had done. He has been fighting all over the world. From Asia, to Europe, from Africa to Central America, his figure could be seen everywhere around the world fighting the invasion forces 

But the moment the war ended Jean seems to have received a news that startles him. He returns to the island and then quickly returns to Moscow. 

Not many knows the reason but for someone like Jean who was always calm to suddenly being so anxious, something big must have happened

The Republic lost many people but the memorable death were Null. That is Jean former general when he was campaigning all over Europe. 

Who would have thought he would have died fighting Susanoo? Maybe it is because of his death that Jean returned back to Moscow.

It is reported that Maximoff also returned to Moscow in panic. Many people thought he would at least stay for a while considering that he is very much injured

Everyone knows Maximoff as quite the good sniper. Not many people knows he is also related to Jean. 

He is the disciple of Paulette. And since Paulette is Jean woman, in a way Maximoff also in Jean camp

But not all of the people from the Republic returned home. While the ship of the Republic has now left the port, there is one person left that is from the Republic.

And that person is the Ice Queen Katarina. 

The reason she did not return….everyone seems to know. The Ice Queen made quite the impact during the war

Everyone still remembers her sword

It is hard to describe her sword. 

But one thing they acknowledge was its power. It is a sword shot by a Disk Formation levelers that pierce through the body of Kaiju who holds the trident. 

At that time, Kaiju could even fight evenly with Death Monarch who is in Divine Comprehension realm. 

And everyone seem to know that Death Monarch and the Ice Queen is now together. 

Not many people know why the Divine Archer and Death Monarch break up, but details like that never matters to them 

What matters to them is how juicy the stories is. Facts never mattered in the conversation. The common people gossiped but those powerful people thinks

And they think it very deeply. With Death Monarch and Ice Queen on the same side, it means the Republic internal problem will be solved sooner or later.

It is no longer time to hedge the bet. It is time to go all in, these are the few thoughts of the people after confirming the matter

This line of thought clearly refers to the Boris Problem. 

Why does the Boris Problem is the thought that rise to the mind? Because Katarina now have the support of Death Monarch

And the support of Death Monarch means the support of Pandemonium. 

Katarina is Boris younger sister. And everyone knows that Boris love Katarina. And Katarina loves her brother

So, the Boris Problem had to be discussed. 

But that had to wait for other days. 

With the war won and the immediate threat neutralized, the world powers need to focus on the painstaking process of recuperation. 

The pirates is defeated in Arturia today, but there is still many pirates all over the Ten Seas. 

The war won today simply proven the world powers invincibility and also shows the world who really rules the world

This does not mean that somehow from today, the entire world power would have the ability to supervise every faction in the sea

But without a powerful figure for them to unite around, the process of disintegrating powerful pirate crew become easier

And with the death of many powerful Crime Lords and Pirate Lords, the situation of the sea would become more chaotic for the pirates and the Crime Alliance.

Power, like nature, abhors a vacuum. And with a vacuum of power , ambitious men would rise. And in that chaos, the world power could divide them, weaken then and then control them

Some of the smart people in the Crime Alliance and the Pirate Lords could clearly see such a scheme. 

But even if they knew, it would not matter. They could not stop it. Because human desire is there

The more they push back, the more they will find out that there is nothing they could do to stop it. 

The Ten Seas is no longer a threat. The Crime Alliance will fall into internal fighting.

The war is won and the world powers retain their supremacy

And since the war has been won, there is no longer any reason for them to stay in Arturia

Death Monarch did not force them to stay, and so they would not stay

The League of Freedom, the Order of Thinkers, and the African Alliance should return now and focus their attention towards their respective territories, assessing the damages inflicted by the conflict and working to restore normalcy. 

However, a sense of unease gripped the international community. 

The ships of the World Government remained docked in port; their intentions unclear. 

While the other five great powers swiftly returned home to address their own territories, the World Government lingered, leaving observers perplexed and curious.

The other five great powers all sailed home. But the ships of the World Government is still at port 

And everyone wonders…..what does the World Government want to do?

And everyone remembered. The trident is in Death Monarch hands. Where were Hirate? Where is Raymond?

Was there an agreement? And if there is an agreement, what is the agreement about? 

There is many questions that has not been answered yet. 

And the world could feel that thing are not really over yet.

...….

Azief is inside a room. 

This is the meeting room that Arthur had given him. 

Even though it might seem like the war did not touch the city of Arturia, only those who are on the ground knows that the war did touch the city

Fortunately, enough the people of the city have all been evacuated.

And while there is many buildings that fall prey to explosion and destruction, it would be easy to reconstruct them using the robots. 

He sat on his chair and he looks around him

"Arthur did a great job' he thought to himself. 

The room itself is designed in a way to impress those who come it, like it is a room that exudes majesty

The room itself is in a vast rectangular room, its proportions carefully designed to command attention. 

The hall's length stretches between one and a half to three times its width, giving it a sense of spaciousness and grandeur. 

Its height, taller than its width, adds to the imposing ambiance.

The hall is adorned with large windows, allowing natural light to flood the space and providing breath taking views of the surrounding landscapes.

Along one of the long sides, a magnificent bay window stands proudly, offering an even more panoramic vista and serving as a focal point of the room.

Elaborate tapestries depicting scenes of valour and heraldic symbols hang from the walls, adding vibrant colours and intricate designs to the room ambiance.

Azief sighed looking at those. 

Azief knows Arthur had his own band of knights and for them, he would give them titles. With Arturia claimed by Pandemonium, Azief would also bestow title to him. 

'I did neglect that' he mutter to himself. 

Most of the people work under him was given title but the lats time he conferred a title was during the time when he was stuck in that Fake World

Arthur on the other hand had uses the bestowal of title to open up lands on the island continent. 

'I do need to acknowledge Arthur and give him an appropriate title' he thought to himself. Azief had many things in his mind. 

There is still the matter of his breakthrough that he needs to solve. 

There is the secret that he had learned about the future. 

And the meeting he had with the Creator also gives him a lot of things to think about

So, it is then understandable why something so trivial in his eyes was forgotten

But what is trivial to him is very important to the people below him. 

Standing on different heights, the aspiration and dreams would also be different. 

Now, that he saw those heraldic items and coats of arms, suddenly the memory of this problem rises in his mind and he nodded to himself

It is time for another conferring of titles to make sure the division of power clear. 

Azief continue to observe the room. The centre piece of the hall is the large fireplace that occupies a prominent place. 

The fireplace, crafted meticulously from stone, boasts an exquisite overmantle. 

Intricate carvings adorn the overmantle, showcasing the coat of arms of Arthur. 

The crackling fire within the fireplace casts a warm glow, illuminating the room and providing a comforting atmosphere. 

The hearth serves as a gathering point, drawing people closer during colder seasons, and adding a touch of coziness to the grandeur of the hall.

'I guess Arthur created this to create some kind of ambiance.' After all, when you reached Disk Formation level, the cold hardly could penetrate your body and the heat would not make you sweat

Unless the cold is magical in nature, and the heat is like the heat of the direct sun. 

Other than that, they could easily regulate their body temperature to optimal state to adapt to the climate

Azief sighed

'I am early. I am rarely early' he muttered to himself
