76 Party, Ambassadors and Wine? (2/2)
Zanders smiles at us. ”There is still much to do. But it looks manageable. The biggest problems are about the society. We decided against a dictatorship. There will be many very free-minded individuals among us. Currently we are thinking up something like a voting system which includes every member of the society into the decision.”
”History already proved that something like that doesn't work. Democracy is just a tool for the fools to drown the few smart people in their combined voices.” Chiffre looks like he bit into something sour.
”That may be true for mortals. But we are gods. Everyone in our society has tons of knowledge and life experience. With the use of magic there should also be no problem in informing everyone of the situation and asking for their vote. We will try it first. We can always decide on another system later on.” -Zanders
”It sounds nice. Maybe we will try to adopt it if it works.” I smile at him.
”And that out of the mouth of a Queen who governs a whole planet of gods! Why would you ever think of giving away all that power?” -Gwalonna
I shrug my shoulders. ”Because it's a pain in the ass to solve other people's problems? My husband and I are constantly stressed with solving small issues which could be handled by any sane person. Dictatorship isn't that much fun either.” I shake my fist at the heavens.
”But there are surely some interesting rumours about you and your husband.” Miruliru takes a look into Angrod's direction. ”And I am not entirely sure if those rumours are really just rumours.”
I scratch my cheek with cold sweat forming on my forehead. ”What rumours did you hear?”
”Oooh. Just something like an infernal demon opening a portal to hell itself, which consumed El Shaddai. Then laughing crazy while having his blood all over him and making a horrible prophecy for the future.” Zanders smirks at me.
”Oh I heard something strange too! Is it true that you throw offenders naked from the highest tower in Asheim? That's really disturbing if you ask me.” -Chiffre
”I heard that some minor god had really big troubles with his mortals after they ventured out into space and met a being which had great similarity with your husband. His mortals abandoned all the technology and open mindedness he had put so much effort in creating inside them.” -Gwalonna
”I heard rumours that El Shaddai got reincarnated into a female sex slave and your husband was seen a few times at the red light district where he/she is working now.” -Miruliru
*SNAP*
Ah damn! I broke my glass.
”Fufu... mwahaha...” Rumours are surely scary. Even more so if you are a famous person. ”Kukuku...” I wonder whom I will have to shut up in order to stop them. ”Why are you looking at me like that?”
”Um... nothing.” -Miruliru
”Let's drink and have fun.” Gwalonna starts to fill a new glass for me.
”Let's talk about duplicating Chimera.” -Zanders
”Your expression just looked like we would be able to witness some executions tomorrow.” Everyone looks at Chiffre with a fearsome expression, but the ambassador for the Arcane Community just continues to sip on his glass of wine.
