Lord Shadow - Chapter 1615: Rulemaker

The common people did not know why suddenly there is the protection formation above their heads

They are not attacked so they did not understand why such formation needs to be employed in the first place

If its only one day…then maybe Death Monarch had some adventure.

The officers and the politicians of Pandemonium could accept this. But what if….what if Death Monarch would not come back for years?

This is the concern of everyone right now.

Right now , most of the high-ranking members of Pandemonium government is in the Centre Palace.

Usually, they would be in their territory , managing their lands and people and growing their strength to help Pandemonium

But now all of them are gathered here.

They know how this event could go wrong. It is fine if Death Monarch disappears only for a few days. At least, they could still cover the story from coming out.

Even if it is a few weeks, they could still find a few covers story.

After all, everyone in the world right now knows that Death Monarch is in seclusion. It would not be strange that no one knows his whereabouts during this time

Even a few months is no problem. But if it will take years, who knows how the situation would change by then.

Right now, there is Raymond with the trident. If the assumption of many people is correct, Raymond would be the fourth person in the world that would break through to Divine Comprehension realm

That is another powerhouse on Earth. This would also mean that the World Government would once again rise to the level of the Great Power just like before

Right now, if you are a great power but did not have a Divine Comprehension leveler in your force, it is really hard to feel secure.

It is a lot like having nuclear power. Just like when Death Monarch being the first to reach Disk Formation and overwhelmed the other world power, right now, the apparent power ceiling for Earth is Divine Comprehension realm

And there is only three forces in the world that have such leveler sitting in it

There is Death Monarch sitting on his throne in Pandemonium., there is Jean who is the Left Chancellor of the Republic and there is Hikigaya who is basically the shadow ruler of the Empire of Japan

Jean right now is only interested in seeking a cure for his woman.

As for Hikigaya, he seems to be making some discussion with Greece.

Allying with Greece, and having the Oracle on their side could create an alliance that would create another force that could rival some of the Great Powers of the world

Whatever the case, there is contender for the top of the world order

But these contenders would not do anything nor do they have wild thoughts. There is a prerequisite for that

The prerequisite for that is that Death Monarch is here.

The thing is no one knows how and why Death Monarch suddenly disappears.

That blue light that pieces the sky is the only clue. But even if they wanted to trace that energy, that energy did not linger for long and could not be captured and analysed

They did not know what to do if Death Monarch did not come back for years. If that happens, another chaos would envelop the world

Kaiju is still on Earth. There is also new that Void, the former leader of the Crime Alliance has been seen.

There is all kinds of news from all over the world. All kinds of new and old enemies are all waiting for the news that could make them go wild

As long as Death Monarch is there, all of this chaos could easily be pacified. All of them will play by the rules.

But if the one that have the power to enforce ethe rules is no longer there, why would these people play by the rules?

They would not.

Instead, they would be like children when their parents is no longer at home

If this is any normal circumstances, Sasha, and everyone in power in Pandemonium is confident that they could cover up the story of Death Monarch disappearance for years.

But this time it is different. Because Death Monarch clearly said that it would not take long for him to break through. And after he breakthrough, he would initiate his Ten Realm Project.

It is because of that they would not be able to cover up this story.

If it takes years, people all over the world will began asking question. The Ten Relam project is not a project that Deah Monarch could do alone.

Precisely because of that , Death Monarch had already laid out the plans with Sangmin, with Jean, with Hikigaya and all the other major players of the world

There is a plan. And there is timeframe for this plan to be executed.

So, if Death Monarch did not appear when it is his timeframe they are following, people are going to start asking question

And they would be asking it relentlessly.

And sooner or later, the news that Death Monarch is not on Earth would come out.

Maybe, if Sasha, or the other Three Great Generals of Pandemonium persuade the other world leaders not to talk, considering the impact of it all, they might be persuaded to go along with it and cover up the matter

But…..you could lie for a while. But you could not lie all the time. Someone, somewhere, the news will leak.

And this is why all of the high-ranking members of Pandemonium is in the centre palace and has been meeting almost every day to talk and prepare countermeasure for what will happen

If the world finds out that Death Monarch is not on Earth, then chaos would surely come.

At the top of everyone head, there is the Crime Alliance.

The Crime Alliance that has just been paralyzed would find a breathing room and might even rise again.

The full weakening of the Crime Alliance is only because Death Monarch is the one who is most enthusiastic in weakening them

The other world power all have vested interest in keeping the Crime Alliance alive. n(/0In

The only reason they follow Death Monarch into battle is simply because Death Monarch stance is very uncompromising.

None of them wanted to be the enemy of Death Monarch and Pandemonium.

And also, because the Crime Alliance went too far this time by bling up the meeting place where all of these world leaders were meeting

A rat dare to bite a tiger?

How could the tiger treat this as a joke? Hence, the war between the world power and the Crime Alliance was staged.

lightsnοvεl That war could have gone very differently if certain things, certain people are not in its place.

Kaiju with the trident was very powerful.

If not for the fact that there is Death Monarch on the side of the world power no one truly knows how that war could have gone.

The victory news still aired all over the world but only those who fought in the war and those in the war rooms knows that if Death Monarch was taken out of the equation during the war, and that if Death Monarch could not defeat Kaiju, the ending of that war might be the collapse of the world order and a new world order centred on the Crime Alliance would be born.

Now, all of the politicians, the military generals in Pandemonium could only imagine the kind of chaos that would erupt if the news of Death Monarch is no longer in Pandemonium, that he had disappeared, would cause the world.

The world would be in chaos.

Uncertain elements might rise and certain forces might be emboldened to make drastic measure.

This is also because the current disappearance of Death Monarch is very mysterious. If he had announced it, then the impact of his disappearance would be lessened.

Without Death Monarch the other world powers would also look to take the position of Pandemonium as the top world power on Earth.

This alone could create friction between the world powers. The League of Freedom and the World Government has never been chummy with each other.

The only reason these two powers did not erupt into a war between each other is because Death Monarch had warned them

One might wonder why would these two geta powers listen to Death Monarch like an order.

This is because the complicated nature of the world power itself.

The world Government and the Leage of Freedom is two world powers with many resources and talents.

Fighting them with the power of one world power would drain any of the world powers

But no one has any great justification to attack any other world powers as long as they did not violate the agreement that all of them sign in the World Council.

But if Leage of Freedom and World Government went into war and Death Monarch is angry and ask for help from the other world powers, the other world power would quickly lend their aid.

Because this means that Death Monarch wanted to dismantle the two great powers

And when it has been dismantled, the resource left by these two great powers would surely be divvied up among the force that went attacking these two powers.

What Death Monarch provided is justification and a reason for the world powers to band with each other to destroy the others in an above-board manner and justice in their side

The only one who has such prestige and influence in the world is Death Monarch and that is precisely why the other world powers also plays by the rules
