Chapter 1725 Aftermath of Parry City's Incident -Part 7
When Jin returned to Daimon, there were cheers in Central Daimon City which General Grieves had insisted that the armed escort were to move via that particular street.? (Actually, it was General Ost's idea and General Grieves had to follow through with it because it was a morale booster for the city.)
Jin had no choice but to comply as well and he was 'rudely' awakened by Grieves to show his face and let people know that he was truly alive. To make this thing more of a parade, they even brought back one of the Mecha Fire Dragon's broken pieces of its head to let people know that Jin had done the impossible.
It was to the point some people were already shouting to make Jin the permanent lord of Daimon City.
When they got back to the hotel where Jin was staying along with the Grey Bear Squad, the Hotel Manager had already upgraded their room to senior executive even though Jin said he already felt bad that he was staying there for free.
The manager insisted as he pointed out that the hotel that the Grey Bear Squad had stayed in Parry City was his brother's. The fact that Parry City was still able to function with as little damage was because of Jin. And it was also because of the Interim Leader's decision that his brother was able to get into Daimon without any trouble and with much relative ease.
Thus, all the room would be free for Jin to use until he vacates the premises. After which, he had a good long shower and an exclusive dinner served by the chef for today before he was given to the pack of wolves also known as the press for more details about the things he had done for Parry City.
He gave a bit of the truth out at it was enough to keep them sated as he requested to return to his room for some proper rest. It was during at that point where the big wigs came to Jin and actual work started. To his surprise, Sir Peru Peru had been sneaked into his room as well and there was nowhere else to run. n((0velB1n
"Alright, you guys got me. What you all want?"
"Sir Peru Peru is here to informally apologise to you." General Ost said.
"Why would you want to do that? I already said its fine. Its part of our job to keep the people safe."
"And to talk about plans on how to proceed from here." General Ost added. "Besides, General Grieves had informed me that you had been sleep talking." He finished talking and Denise took a pile of notes and placed them on the table.
"This is whatever we can recover on the Monster Mechanoids that the ex researchers had done before they disappear into the winds. With this, we should be able to create Monster Mechanoids but not at a level that could rival the Empire Royals."
"I have to warn though, by using Monster Mechanoids we will be playing in the narrative as the bad guys as well despite the fact that we are doing it for justice." Sir Peru Peru stated.
"Well... I had some inspiration while I was sleep talking that we can actually enhance our troops instead of making Monster based Mechanoids." Jin spoke out while gave a quick side eye at General Grieves. He gave a quick short grin before returning to the conversation as if he did not know anything about it.
"Please explain more." Denise was the one who was the most interested in this. After all, the Rocketeers were the manufacturers of the Empire's Military. Diamondz had no part in this. But if this coup were to be realised, Diamondz may eventually be the main manufacturer for the new Empire's Military and that brings a lot of money onto the table.
"Before you do, care to fill me in with the details for the things I missed?" A familiar voice struck Jin from behind as the very same manager had opened the doors to Jin's room.
"Archduke Dyke." Every one realised who was coming in and they knelt with their heads down. Only Jin was there to wave at him.
"Lord Jin, what are you doing?" General Ost with a soft but harsh voice asked Jin to do the same as well. However, before Jin could react Dyke closed the door behind him and bend his knees down for Jin instead. The rest who was watching this scene were tremendously shocked by the sudden turn of developments but Jin did not care and asked them to quickly take their seats in this 'informal meeting at the Jin's room'.
"Lord Jin had been instrumental in this upcoming coup that I have been planning and the discovery of this Mecha Fire Dragons had strengthened my allies' resolve to contribute more for this coup. Thus, it would not be shameful to make him the overall commander for the rebellion that I am creating."
"Oh shit. Is that more work for me. Why are you giving me more work. I just want to get it done as soon as possible. Can you don't put this kind of erm... stunt and consult me first before doing it?" Jin said so bluntly that the rest in the room were a little perplexed.
"But Lord Jin, this is an honour that you should wear proudly on your shoulders." General Ost stated but Jin shook his head. "No. This is more unnecessary work. If need to, I would rather settle this myself without any allied help."
"I do not think that you are that capable of..." Before Archduke Dyke could finish speaking, Jin turned his console and showed them his points account.
The number of zeroes... was terrifying until Jin realised something was wrong. There was two additional zeroes right behind the number that he knew, and he turned it back to double check. Yet, the effect was already done to the people in the room.
