B4: Chapter 61: Settling Kings and To Korea
Several days passed as Daz worked tirelessly to help establish the rule of both Rocky and Pai-han.
Rocky's inauguration was a simple matter, really. He was already the high lord of Gem Kingdom - Arizona's main ruling body - before he had been tasked with controlling all of Nevada as well. Considering Daz's displays of power in Las Vegas and factoring in how close his own centre of command was to Rocky's, things went smoothly.
Pai-han and Taiwan, on the other hand, wasn't quite as peachy. For a start, Pai-han was a child with minimal personal strength which led to his old friends from Gǒng splitting into two factions; one supporting him and Daz, the other demanding another to lead as Daz's proxy over the boy.
The opposing faction either saw the boy as unfit to rule or they viewed it as a chance to rule themselves seeing as how Daz had seemingly chosen a proxy king arbitrarily.
Meanwhile, Adya and her people didn't care who ruled so long as their temple wasn't disturbed while the normal citizens with only so much system-given strength were too focused on rebuilding to be too invested in the political side of things so long as it didn't impact their lives too badly. They mostly trusted Daz's decision to put Pai-han in power.
Thankfully, no fights had broken out and no one had died over the issue as of yet. Slowly as each day passed people were beginning to see how good of a ruler the boy with a pet husky could be since with Daz's direct help he'd been setting up laws and legislations while punishing criminals, reforming evil-doers and solving disputes.
The situation still wasn't perfect but things were looking better and Daz no longer needed to observe Taiwan as closely as before, freeing him up.
"It's Monday, yet again," Daz muttered. "System, show me my merit points and my two bank accounts, please."
| Confirmed. The total balance of the host is now: 692,300,340 merit points. |
