508 Count Down 4 (1/2)

13:47:55

It was the countdown before the third phase Battle of Ascension started. If the other guilds were waiting nervously, Randy was celebrating his wedding with his two wives. Since the Battle of Ascension, having more than one wife was normal.

Before, he promised Zhen Yi to hold their wedding. But the problem with the Dragon Dynasty made them could not hold the wedding at that time. However, he now ”solved” the problem and it was time to fulfill his promise before the third phase started.

Randy himself did not know what would happen when the countdown was over. He just did not want to have regrets, that was why he held the wedding before the third phase.

Happy Guild sent the invitation to the guild which close to Happy Guild. Along with the wedding, the ceremony for the establishment of Divine Empyrean.

During the discussion which lasted for a month, everyone came to the conclusion. They decided Randy would be the King of Divine Empyrean Kingdom. It was not as Randy's expectation, a normal country that President as the head, but a kingdom with King as the head.

It happened yesterday night, Randy, Aveline, Zhen Yi, and Long Xinya were back yesterday morning. When the night, Empyrean Council summoned Randy.

Empyrean Council was a form of government that was established after a long discussion. Below the King, it was Empyrean Council which tasked helping the King in development of Divine Empyrean.

The member of the Empyrean Council chosen from the top figures of the guild who joined. Wisen, Long Xinya, Udin, Pristine, and Marlin were the members chosen from the Happy Guild. Marlin was representing the non-human races in Divine Empyrean.

Oubin and Hermione were chosen from the Sacred Tortuga. It was supposed to be Limera, Sacred Tortuga sent Hermione. Justice Knight sent Anna to represent Justice Knight in council.

Another two spots were given to Royal Knight. Yes, Royal made a shocking decision in the last minute. They decided to join Divine Empyrean five days ago and got two spots in Council. Royal Knight sent two royal advisors to join the council.

10 spots filled the Empyrean Council, there were two spots left. These two spots were given to the medium and small guilds who joined. The council decided to give these two precious spots for the small and medium guilds.

Whether they wanted it or not, the medium and the small guilds had to unite and choose their representative in councils. This way, it would be easier to unite the small and the medium guild who just joined.

This was how the Empyrean Council formed. After the council formed, it was the time to choose the head. Everyone agreed to choose the head by vote and the result was clear, Randy was chosen.

Yesterday night, Empyrean Council summoned Randy to tell this.

Before Randy came, Long Xinya already told the others, ”He will refuse! We have to think of a way to convince him.”

Sure enough, as soon as Randy was being told he would be the King, he refused which surprised everyone, Happy Guild members were an exception.

”I refuse!”

”Reason? Tell us the reason!?” Oubin almost lost his temper if not because of Hermione.

”The reason is simple, I am not fit to be a King! I want to be the Supreme General who led the armies, I don't want to be a King! As you know, I don't like and not good with a political talk! I propose my father to be King!” It was Randy's answer. He told it uprightly and frankly.

The answer left everyone speechless. The two advisors from the Royal Knight surprised. They thought the King was definitely Randy, it was the position belonged to Happy Guild guild leader.

They thought Long Xinya was joking with them when she said Randy would refuse. It was out of their expectation Divine Empyrean had not yet reached an agreement that Randy would be the King. They thought King was determined after the announcement of establishment Divine Empyrean.

Markus, one of the Royal advisors of Royal Knight guild let out a chuckle which attracted everyone's attention, including Randy.

”Cough! Temporary, I will call you Happy guild leader as you haven't become our King, is it okay?” Markus stood up as he spoke.

Randy nodded his head. The Divine Empyrean had not yet established formally, so their talk was still a plan.

”My name is Markus and I am a former Royal Advisor of Royal Knight Guild. Happy guild leader, you said you are not suitable to be a King because you thought so?” Markus threw a question.

Randy frowned, he did not get why this Markus asked him this, but he still nodded his head.

Getting the reply, Markus smiled, ”Happy Guild leader, you thought you are not suitable for King position. However, the one who can judge you, whether you are fitting to be a King or not, is not yourself, but us, Divine Empyrean's people. You thought you are unbefitting to be our King, however, we, Divine Empyrean's people choose you as King.”

Randy fell into silence when these words entered his ears. He could not refute Markus.

Markus did not stop here and glanced toward two people, the representative from the small guild and the medium guild. Kalyan and Andre, these two were chosen by the small guilds and the mediums guild to represent them.

Andre was a middle-aged man in his early forties while Kalyan was younger, a man in his mid-thirties. Andre and Kalyan looked at each other and nodded their heads.

Andre stood up and spoke respectfully to the confused young man, Randy, ”My name is Andre and I am here as the representative of many guilds. I come here bringing their voice, ”We only want Randy Christian as our King!” This is the message I bring from them!”

After saying this, Andre sat back. What Andre said was not an exaggeration move to convince Randy. It was the truth, the medium and the small guilds joined Divine Empyrean because of Happy Guild and Randy.

After those words came out, Randy mused for a moment. However, to be a King, this meant he was shouldering not a small responsibilities on his shoulder.

Just as he wanted to refute, Hermione clapped her hand loudly, ”All right, Divine King Randy you are our King now!”
