Chapter 713 - Governors Speech (1/2)
Not only the people of the Osaka Area but every leader in the area of Hakata, Sendai, Sapporo, and Tokyo were also waiting for the speech of the new government.
They didn't believe that Saitake Sogen would step down from his governor's place and give it to his son. They also had never heard about Saitake's son but then they thought that it might be possible for Saitake to hide the information about his own son.

Tokyo Area.
Saitenshi watched the live record about the speech of the new governor of Osaka Area with quite a strange expression.
A few days ago, Saitake was the first person, and the one who led everyone to accuse the Tokyo Area was the one who had stolen the Ladder of Heaven.
But suddenly there was an announcement that Saitake Sogen would step down from his governor seat and let his son manage the governorship of Osaka Area.
”Tendo-san, what do you think about this matter?” Saitenshi looked at Tendo Kikunujo who was her advisor.
Kikunujo shook his head and said, ”I don't know. I have never seen Saitake's son and I can't judge anything.”
”But then what is the reason why he has to step down now?” Saitenshi asked. She didn't only ask this question to Kikunujo, but also everyone who was sitting in this room.
”....”
They were silent for a while, but then suddenly one person raised his opinion.
”It might be because of the health issues since Sogen Saitake is quite fat. He might have a lot of diseases such as diabetes, heart, or anything that we don't know about.”
”...”
No one said anything, but they thought that it might be possible, but it was also unlikely since they didn't think that Sogen Saitake would give up his authority easily with just a health issue.
”Let's see the new government first before we can come to a conclusion on this matter,” Saitenshi said, ending their discussion.
They nodded since what mattered the most was the new governor of Osaka Area. They wanted to know what was the view of the governor of Osaka Area about the Tokyo Area and also wondered whether Osaka Area would continue their accusation on the disappearance of Ladder of Heaven in the Tokyo Area.

Tendo Civil Security Corporation.
”Kisara-san, is it really important to hear the speech of the new governor of Osaka Area?” Rentaro said. He felt that it wasn't necessary to listen to the speech of the new governor of Osaka Area since they were living in the Tokyo Area. Even though he also knew about Sogen Saitake who was known as dictator since he had met them in his childhood time, he didn't really think that it was necessary and he really didn't care too much about it.
'If that old guy is dead then it's good...'
That was the thought of Rentaro at that moment. For the new governor, even though he was slightly curious, he felt that it was better to go to the supermarket to buy discount meat for tonight's dinner.
”Don't say something childish, Satomi-kun.” Kisara looked at Rentaro and said, ”You know yourself with the change of governor, there might be a change in the law and it might even affect our business.” She looked at him with a serious expression and said, ”What if the new governor is going to make a new law about the ban or to limit the action of Civil Security? Even though it is only in the Osaka Area, it might also affect the Tokyo Area too.
”I - If that really happens what are we going to eat?!”
Kisara seemed to have a despairing expression.
”........”
Rentaro gulped and realized the seriousness of this matter.
”Rentaro, are we going to be homeless?” Enju asked curiously.
”....”
Rentaro patted Enju's head and said, ”I won't let that happen.”
Kisara nodded when she saw Rentaro's reaction then looked at the television before saying, ”It's going to start.”
Rentaro and Enju nodded while waiting for the speech of the new governor of Osaka Area.

The one who might be affected by this change of governor might be the businessman in the Osaka Area, including Shiba Family who was famous for their arms dealers business.
After the attack in Gastrea, there was a lot of business that was becoming popular and the most popular was an arms dealer.
Shiba Family was famous for their weaponry and they also had proved their weapons to a lot of Civil Security corporations in this country.
Their headquarter was in Osaka Area and if the governor of Osaka Area had changed, then it might also affect their business.
Miori Shiba, who was the only daughter of Shiba Family, was quite annoyed since she was told to come back from Tokyo to Osaka quickly.
Of course, because of her family's wealth it was possible for her to use an airplane which was covered in Varanium to transport to different areas safely.
Miori was annoyed, but she didn't say anything. She had lived in the Tokyo Area because she didn't like Sogen Saitake. Waiting for the speech to start, she was wondering whether the son of Sogen Saitake would be also fat too.
”The new governor is about to enter!”
Every reporter on the spot started to shutter their camera and they also recorded every moment of this thing that was about to happen.
Then three people walked together toward the podium.
