Lord Shadow

Chapter 716: The triple alliance (1)

The Three Giants and the Four Great Powers

Even though there are seven world powers, when someone said the Three Giants, they referred only to Pandemonium, the World Government and the Republic.

Even to the rest of the world, the people were more inclined to be the citizens of these three great powers.

Because to them, these three great powers have stability and deep foundation that separated them from the other crowned kings

That is what they called the other four great powers. The other four great powers were crowned by Death Monarch.

The Crowned Kings

The continent was given to them. OF course the reality couldn’t have been more different.

Death Monarch in the first place have never conquered those continents.

But his act of crowning the other four great powers, redistributing the continent of the world and separating and dividing borders and lines of the world had given the world the false impression that he was the one that gave the land to the great power.

The truth was if he really wanted to conquer the world at that time, while he could do that with his power, the whole world would be against him and who knows what happens then.

If millions of people fought him could he focused on reaching Divine Comprehension and maintain his superiority over all others? It would be impossible

He would be wasting his time and stray further from his own path and might even lose all the things that he had built if he stubbornly persisting on doing things like that

And the truth is that when the other four great power was given the continent, it was them that have to open up lands, eradicating the monster that was there and they also have to fight the local power that was already entrenched there to establish their authority

If Death Monarch really desire to rule the word, these arduous task would be his to be solved.

But by separating and given these faction and organization the authority and right of ruling, they were the ones that have to solve all of these problems

But because of the image that Death Monarch had created for himself, to the rest of the world, it was Death Monarch that gave the land and as such the prestige he gains was immense.

One could feel that the four great powers did not like this at all. It felt like all their sweat and blood were invalidated

Death Monarch gain prestige and power with the least minimal effort. Azief might not look like it but he once was an Emperor in a long dream.

He knows how to distribute power and knows how to manipulate the public perception if he really put his mind to it.

The reason why he rarely does so is simply because he does not really have to. When you reach a certain level of power, you could even ignore public perception.

And Azief have reached that level.

Even to the resident of those land where they are under the four powers, they believe that the superior powers that ruled the world is the Three Giants

The interest of the three great powers have always been interconnected even more so when Loki serves as regent

if there is one thing that worries Hirate and Boris, it was whether Death Monarch would change the policy of the Central Government of Pandemonium.

Unlike the Republic that needs the confirmation of one third of the Senate for emergency measures, or the World Government that needs the approval of the Quorum Council, Pandemonium moves according to the whims of Death Monarch.

He could instate one policy in the morning and abolish it by the end of the evening.

While one could argue giving so much power to one man is corruption itself, it is undeniable that such power is useful in making swift decision and uniting and consolidating force to make sure the organization is strong.

Pandemonium is luckily under the whims of someone so uninterested in expanding and fighting for more power that in doing so, they become even more powerful

Death Monarch had rarely concerns himself with the matters of the world. But not concerned about it does not mean he is blind toward the current of the world

There were a few times Death Monarch went out or make orders that inerter with the world.

Narleod sit down and they are all in silence thinking about what to do

The scary thing about Pandemonium was that when Death Monarch is there, even if they interfere with the world, no one could stop them.

If Death Monarch is some kind of psychopathic mass murderer, the world would have been hell to live in.

To the World Government and to the Republic, the return of Death Monarch brings them mixed emotions.

While Hirate always said to his secretary that he does not like dealing with the Trickster that is just his simple complaint.

To him, if he compared Death Monarch and Loki, Hirate would probably prefer dealing with the Trickster.

The reason is because while the trickster has many tricks of his own, he did not hold any animosity towards him.

On the other hand, the same could not be said between Death Monarch and him. There is a history between them and that history is not a peaceful one

Hirate have tried twice to kill Death Monarch. And Death Monarch had even tried to kill him. If not for the intervention of Loki, he would probably die that day

Those two times had shown the world how unkillable Death Monarch really is. And after that two times, Hirate had chosen the way of reconciliation with Death Monarch.

Since you could not kill them, you at least need not anger them. Now, that Death Monarch has returned, Hirate is curious about Death Monarch next moves.

He is also curious what he would do when he knows that the World Government has a World Gate

In the side of the Republic, Boris is worried about the return of Death Monarch because of his sister.

The fact that his sister breaks seclusion the moment Death Monarch returns is something that does not bode well.

The Republic have strengthened their grip on Europe and that grip was tightened because of the existence of his sister.

Boris himself is not weak but compared to his sister, he lacks certain power.

But unlike most stories where the sibling felt jealous of each other abilities and powers, the story between Boris and Katarina is quite different.

Boris did not mind to die for his sister and the same could be said for the feeling that his sister held for him.

They are a loving siblings that loved each other and would die for each other.

Abused by their father, Boris had always taken the brunt of their father wrath.
