Chapter 685: assassin

Translator: imperfectluck Editor: Kurisu

Modern day society would be the one to judge how good or bad a politician was because the moment that a politician’s reputation was ruined, that would be the end of their political career The end result of overly seeking to represent the needs of “the people” would be a loss of self will, and in the great majority of situations, the majority opinion wasn’t actually necessarily the truth or the best course of action, but rather just the one which appeared to be the best to everyone

Because of this, any politician as supported by the masses would actually themselves be controlled by the will of the masses Even theperiod of ti the flow What accomplishments such a politician could achieve wouldn’t be dependent on the individual’s personal abilities, but rather how beloved they were by the God of Fate

It would take several years or even several decades before how good or bad a politician was could truly be determined Only when the politician’s successor’s successor’s successor did a bad job would people recall the predecessor while cursing their current lives as they fondly recalled the past together with their old friends

Only by having worse lives and a foolish new leader for comparison would people discover to their astonishment that their previous leader had actually done a decent job, and that all their previous coe That foolish leader they always complained about had actually done well, and now that people looked back at the past, the seeds that leader planted had all started sprouting, and the leader’s seely foolish policies actually caused the people to benefit after so ly beautiful plans and goals were still nothing oals even decades later

There was also another type of person apart froular politicians

Such people wouldn’t even knohy they started beco upouldn’t even be for themselves

“…My country is about to be finished, and the people are having such a hard time I must defeat the enemy and reclaim my country”

“…If this continues, we’ll have less and less land to live on That won’t do…”

“…I must work hard for the sake of ths of other species…”

Most would overthink things or have insufficient ability, dying along the way However, there would always be those ere geniuses or sioals and dreahable, childish, and i their chosen path, and reach the peak as if they were blessed by the Gods, achieving what others could only dream of

Such people would finally leave their own mark in history Or, perhaps it would be more accurate to say that they created history Since they were part of history itself, perhaps these people could ures”

But looking at it from another standpoint, their personal fates were the exact opposite

Politician would forever be a highly profitable job Since they would have no opinions of their own, anyone could hire them to speak for their cause As politicians would naturally try and choose to join the winning side, politicians would always be standing on top of society and enjoying endless gla a losing side

It was easy for modern society to determine as a skilled politician or not Those ere the victors ast all the endless schemers were naturally the more skilled politicians

However, leaders would have different fates awaiting the lory would also be filled with coood or bad But, when it was necessary, the leaders would also make their own decisions, even if such decisions would destroy their own future

Their accomplishments would be discussed by future people Perhaps future people would be grateful, or perhaps they would be furious Regardless, the leaders would leave their traces in history

Historical figures would be even reat deal of effort, but they ht not even die a pleasant death For instance, fro, and so on all had grand accomplishic death before the end naturally caures, role models for future people to look up to Countless people would also exclaim over them They would even become popular topics of fiction stories The difference between historical figures and politicians or ordinary leaders was that people would never forget about their historical figures unless that entire species or culture was extinguished
