Chapter 1810 Just Crown Me Already -Part 3

A week had passed and the security situation had more or less been stabilised. Diamondz Corp had been seen sending their construction workers and Mechanoids including the equipment to be used for the reconstruction of the area.

Other than that, the new King Jin had been sleeping on his desk mainly because all the things that should have been done were not being taken care of. Instead, he was surprised to find that Puzzle was the one doing all the administration work when it was supposed to be the duty of the King and Queen.

To his surprise, the Royal Attendant Puzzle possessed the power and ability to manipulate things since he had access to all the documentation but he did not. The only thing he did was follow the Queen's orders and advise her on what to do to get certain things done.

Otherwise, most of the orders by the King and Queen had been faithfully executed by Puzzle and the other royal attendants. The Inner City Council was also a sham where the Queen had been putting relatives and other incompetent fools that were useful to her but not to the city, resulting in a city being seen through rose tinted glass. It was hilariously awful when Jin saw it.

In the meantime, Archduke Dyke had also sent his full construction team who had years of expertise from Mount Sunn and into Bearling Palace. The construction at Mount Sunn was not completed but the foundation had already been made so Dyke had gotten a few other subcontractors to finish the job instead.

After all, if Archduke Dyke would be crowned King or at least to be the regent for the next few years, he needed to be involved in the whole situation that Jin had been sucked into. Obviously, dearest Panda Cultivator had his own ideas but when he thought about it, Jin once again felt that it was not worth his time and allowed Dyke to do his own way of handling the city.

Besides, Archduke Dyke himself had many years of experience on how to deal with all these domestic issues that Jin kicked all of the Inner City Council members out of their position and installed the Archduke's City Councils as the new Inner City Council of Bearling. This might sound like a horizontal job transfer but things were more complicated than that.

Being a member of the Inner City Council of Bearling meant to be the government that led the entire Empire. The Inner City was just a title to make things less grandeur as the previous kings thought that having too grand of a title may promote arrogance upon working. Not exactly the wrong idea but people had already associated being an Inner City Council member meant that you get to being the head of a department that governed what the Empire needed.

So, it was a vertical job promotion rather than a horizontal job transfer. No doubt, the Archduke's City Council members were elated that they were to have such a job promotion while they passed their own responsibilities handling the central district of the Empire to their apprentices instead. However, as mentioned, because of the fools and nepotism of the Royals, the task they had were monumental.

Surely, the Archduke's team had clashes with the Inner City Council since they were handling the Central District's policies. It was to the point many of times, those membes in the Archduke Team had boasted that they could do a better job than the people in the Inner City Council. And now that they are in that current position, Dyke had force them to remember what they had said to him previously and the rest could only wallow sorrow for ever sprouting those words.

"So many things to fix. They had really diverted a lot of money into the making of those Mecha Dragons." Archduke Dyke said as he shook his head to see that the Empire could be in the red if they were not careful in the next few months.

"Guess it looks like to continue their influential lifestyle, they probably going to use the Mecha Dragons as leverage against other countries. Maybe expanding it even more and getting more territory." Jin said.

"That's what the Royal thinks and in reality its not as easy as it is anymore. The Empire is rather a lonely place mainly because of how big it had become. A lot of people wants their land back and had form anti Empire alliances in the dark. If the Royals were to attack a certain country within that anti Empire Alliance without knowing....or with sufficient warning..." Dyke shook his head at the possibilities.

"The Empire might be no more... Hey, at least we defeated the threat within our Empires ourselves. Surely the foreign delegations would have something to say." Jin said and Dyke noted. "I am sure they are saying things behind my back to you and instead to me directly."

"Haha, acting smart right now eh?"

"OF course, suddenly a man who Archduke Dyke found to be worthy to be a lord because he rescued his son became famous in less than a year. And let me reiterate. Archduke Dyke found that person. So, who's the real mastermind when people tried to analyse this whole situation?"

"That will be me...even though you are the one who did everything behind the scenes." Dyke grinned for a moment.

"Yeap, its great that you are taking the shots... since most of them see me as just a puppet like how people knew that the King was a puppet to the Queen." Jin said. n.(o/)v./E/-l-/b-/1))n

"And that is the most scary part is that all of them had assumed wrongly. Hahahaha! Oh this is so much fun. I never thought of it this way until you mentioned it." Dyke laughed and once he calm down, he told Jin about the things he found out from his spies from other nations.

And the political game continued...
