Chapter 1763: Twenty Years Later III
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 someone like Raymond, does he like to learn things like this?
Raymond is someone who could reach transcendence status in the future, becoming even more powerful and there is no limit to his breakthrough.
Some 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.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
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 Government.
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 name that come 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 Government and only if there is truly something important that he would step in.
For most of the matter of the World Government 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 Government.
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.
More people come after seeing that the people who come in the first batch was not expelled
Then these people gather together
Villages were formed, 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 came 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 formed.
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 come 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 someone that could tolerate a grain of sand in his eyes.
He nearly cripple all of the Crime Alliance operation.
He did not like criminals.
And criminals also hated him.
This does not mean crime doesn't happen in his region.
But the crime 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 become a guest in some dignitaries houses.
But the World Government is different
