Among the different countries, they were some that agreed with the methods of the Republic of Northwest.

The Dhaka Commercial Association’s Chief Mage and Great Governor, for example, exclaimed happily upon hearing the news, “Good! Good! Marvelous! This is really a good plan; why did I not think of it before? Props to the Void Mask Lord; he is indeed wise and future-ready!” He had laughed and had been as hyper as when he had first become a leader in his youth.

Another Great Governor was puzzled and asked, “Your Excellency of Dragon, where’s the good in this plan?”

“Yes, in this case, what would differentiate royalty and common folk?”

“I feel like there are issues with this plan…”

“Me too…”

The Chief Mage sighed and looked at his fellow governors. “You all really find fault with this plan?”

He smiled in a passive-aggressive way, and in a cunning tone, he said, “We’re all peers here. There’s no need for pretense. If you have a problem, you can bring it up.”

The others were all stunned, and they glanced at each other before slowing recalling their negative expressions and words fearfully.

“Actually… there’s no issue.”

“Yes… If only this was applicable to me…”

“Yes, it’s too late for us now, unfortunately…”

These exclamations all came from the older governors who had climbed their way to this circle of highest rule through hard work and time.

The Dhaka Commercial Association was a pure merchant country and did not have a strong aristocratic force like the Commonwealth of Golden Coins. It was also almost fully in line with the business route. This was due to the defeat of the Mifata Federation during the early stages of the country’s development. This country was somewhat underdeveloped and was not able to come up with a traditional ruling method. All the regions were ruled by small aristocrats and merchants, hand in hand. As for the bigger aristocracies… the Mifata Federation had its own Marquis, which was the only one who had reached the Dhaka Commercial Association.

Originally, the one who had used cunning schemes to become a Marquis wanted to take control over the entire country like the past Thunder Lord. However, he lost his life in a “small accident” and this “death” included his daughter-in-law’s illicit child.

The massacre of the Marquis involved his entire family and social circle, which was not small. Afterward, there were other subsequent Marquis in Dhaka, but they all met with similar fates after they attained the position. To date, whoever had plans to lead Dhaka or create their own legacy lived no more than a year.
