Lord Shadow

The continent of the world is numerous right now.

Some of these continent could not be seen by him like something shielded itself from his gaze

And then there are some other huge block of land that are on the process of breaking out and some others are in the process of solidifying.

And the original seven continents had also become bigger and new borderlines needs to be redrawn.

Azief knows that the great powers are very sensitive when it comes to their own border.

Asia and Europe shares a border even though they are two different continents. How would they decide where one begins and one ends?

If there is no one mediating the matter, this would incite a war between the Lotus Order and the Republic.

And once such a war begins, the other world power will not be behind. Azief sighed. He just got dumped by his girlfriend

In a way, just a moment ago, it was like his life is a melodrama. Suddenly, it now turns into a political genre drama.

This is the life of Azief. He tries to live his own life, yet because of his title and the power and influence he had, he also needs to think what his action would mean to the world.

from the moment he sets his foot into the world and began setting order for the world, he could no longer remain uninvolved.

And now, it is time for him to think of certain other things. One of the reason is because it is an important thing to think about.

The other reason is Azief is trying to dull the pain

He did not immediately leave the tent.

Sofia might have disappeared from the tent but Azief uses this time to calm down his heart

If he returns to Pandemonium the way he is right now, he fears he would lash out at Sasha and his officials.

It is better for him to think by himself here right now and slowly calm down his heart. As for Lotus Order and the Republic clashing, Azief think it is unlikely to happen.

Of course, right now if those two forces fight it out, the winner would be the Republic because the Republic have Jean.

But it is not like the Republic would not have casualties either.

Knowing that Arrayist Lee Sangmin is on the Lotus Order side, he must have some methods to inflict the most damage to the Republic.

The Lotus Order members would also not like the forces of Europe encroaching upon their dominion.

And while most people think that the Lotus Order is some big family and the leader of this world power is the Emperor that lives in the Lotus Palace, that could not be further than the truth.

Azief opinion of the Emperor of Wei is that he controls only the area of former China and even then he did not rule all of the territories under the former China.

It is divided between him and other powerful warlords that rises during the initial beginning of the Fall

There were many other nations and kingdoms in Asia that rest beneath the umbrella that is Lotus Order. Some of them is even stronger than the Lotus Palace people

The reason that they do not stand up and took the lead position is simply to hide their power and grow in peace.

Not everybody wanted to rule the world. Some felt that it is good enough to create a kingdom that they could rule by themselves and have no desire to go to the forefront

After all, even though the Lotus Order effectively seems to have legal and legitimate power to declare all under Asia under their banner, these warlords, kings and Queens all know that this power is given to them by Pandemonium

And if they broke out from the Lotus Order or take control of the Lotus Order dominant position, then it is they that need to face with the other six great powers.

And while some of these are quite confident that they could topple the rule of the Lotus Order, the reason why they do not is because then they have to stand in front.

And in the world stage, the Lotus Order compared to the other great powers is lacking. They lack people.

Or to be more accurate, they lacked powerful people. Asia used to be one of the most populous region on Earth

But with the Fall, with millions of people dying and most affected of all of this is the Asian continent.

Then the warlords rising up in former China and former Japan followed by the rising of the warlords all over Asia continents and its subcontinent, the event of the Fake World, the Weronian Occupation, and now the Multiversal Convergence, the population of people in Asia could be said had dwindle significantly.

And in this new world, nationality means shit.

Race means shit.

Everybody wanted to survive. And the only way to survive in this new world is to pick the strongest tree to rest under

To the world, and to the people of the world, this large tree is none other than Pandemonium. As such, most people try to migrate to Pandemonium, even if they have to sail the stormy seas filled with sea monsters, they would try if they could

This is one of the reason why the warlords that have enough power to topple the Lotus Order did not do such a thing.

Lotus Order, regardless of its flaws and its many weaknesses, it is a faction that is recognized by the World Government, the Republic and more importantly Pandemonium

Pandemonium, World Government and the Republic is like Britain, France and Russian Empire before the event of the World War I

They are the world powers that have the power to determine the borders of the world and these three great powers is allied with each other

If this happens in the past, this alliance would surely scare the other great powers.

And this is proved by the four great powers allying with each other to contained Pandemonium, World Government and the Republic.

The only wrong thing about this analogy is that it was Pandemonium that unilaterally decided which continent belong to whose

And in almost a decade since the establishment of the World Distribution Event, the six world power that was selected by Pandemonium had kept the world civilized and orderly to some point.

Lotus Order stability of government is dependent on them not meddling too much with the warlords all over Asia.

To these powers that rooted themselves deep in Asia, as long a s the Lotus Order did not mess with them, they would have no desire to disturb the status quo between the lords, kings and nobles under the Lotus Order

These are the weakness of the Lotus Order. They are disunited

The Republic might be called a Republic and one might doubt their unity but they are unlike the democracy before the Fall

To have a powerful organization while fighting external threats from outside the border of the Republic and even the borders of the world, fighting with alien civilization, all of the faction and organization in the world needs a unified opinion and not a debate when the world is burning outside the Senate Hall.

This is why they have the Chancellor and even have a post of the High Chancellor. In times of emergency, the Senate would suspend most of the right of the Senators

In that moment, the power to mobilize all resources of the powers under the Republic falls into the Left, Right and the High Chancellor.

Boris is the Right Chancellor and Jean is the Left Chancellor. Most of the time, they stand on opposite side.

At times, they could see eye to eye in certain issue and in such days, the resolution or laws are easily passed.

When they do not see eye to eye in certain issues, it is when the Senators have to cast their votes. If the votes are tied, then the High Chancellor would have the final say

Of course, if even the High Chancellor could not decide, then a certain Law or resolution is once again would be discussed in a later date.

Right now the Republic in a state of emergency and the power of the Republic now is being wielded by Boris.

The reason is because Katarina, the High Chancellor of the Republic is kidnapped.

Jean is managing the time portal and as such there is only one Chancellor in Moscow right now that have enough influence and support from the Senators.

This is probably the reason why Jean wanted to return to the Republic right now.

Azief knows Boris. Even though, Jean is his political opponent, he would not do something that would harm Jean

Not to mention Jean is helping him right now.

Without him, the time between the Seresian world and the Earth Prime would not be so dilated like this.

Azief shudders to think what would happen to Katarina if the time on Earth and on Seresian world is increased.

One day in Earth Prime equals to months or years in the Seresian world. If such thing happens, Katarina would probably be tortured by the Demon King by then
