Chapter 636 - 560: The Curtain Falls on Satire
Salvador’s talent was undoubted; the fervor in Laine was intense, yet its upper echelons were all elites whose judgment in character was impeccable.
Over the years, Salvador had leveraged his influence to involve himself in various aspects of the city, and many of the new policies had been "suggested" by him.
The governor of the city also tacitly paved the way for Salvador, the future Supreme Decree, happily allowing flowers and applause to lay the groundwork for his path ahead.
Salvador was truly the master of this city, and he did not disappoint.
This Border City changed yearly; the evil entities around it were cleaned up, the faith within the city was devout, people’s hearts were at peace, and the economy was continuously developing. Salvador didn’t have to do anything; he could just live peacefully and, after a few more years, return to the Imperial Capital and then rise rapidly through the ranks.
But he was a clever man and he saw the effects of fanaticism earlier than other fervent believers.
Reports of battles, data sets, along with numerous related complaints and conflicts were laid before him; Salvador felt the impact of fanatical faith and human supremacy.
Knowing he was to become the Supreme Decree, Salvador was acutely aware of the responsibilities he would bear.
If he did nothing, then once he returned to the Imperial Capital, he would be thousands of miles from the frontier, making it hard to see what the true lower layers were like.
Salvador was an ambitious man who wanted to seize this opportunity to change the current situation.
