Chapter 1332 Choosing A Side I

　　At the same time Azief is confronting the top people of the Hanging Head tavern, inside the City Lord residence, there is a middle age man who is rubbing his temple and his expression is unpleasant. 

　　He is the city lord Arthur Foster. It is from his name that the city is called Arturia. And he is having a headache right now

　　\'Problems after problems\' he muttered underneath his breath. Then he looks at the messenger and said while shaking his head

　　\'Who attacked Hanging Head? Don\'t they know that Hanging head is not just some normal gathering information places?\'

　　Sighing, he then said 

　　\'Who knows who backed them? Even I have to think twice in offending them. This is bringing problem to my city\' he said helplessly.

　　His expression is really not good. He then looks at his advisor. 

　　His advisor is someone who came from the Middle East, Muhammad Ahmad bin Kamaruzaman. People called him Advisor Ahmad. 

　　And his Admiral came from Italy, running away from Italy during the Conquest of Jean, and nobody really knows his name but people called him Admiral Sam. 

　　Ahmad finished reading the report and shook his head.

　　\'None of the other forces in the city had made any suspicious moves. This is really an out towner\'

　　Then Ahmad continue by saying

　　\'This makes it hard for us to know this person affiliations. He also brings someone who is suspected to be his granddaughter. And it seems that this child also has powerful abilities. Her laws seem to be element related laws. 

　　\'I did read the report. This people seem to arrive today. They drink milk tea, walk around the paths of the cliff side road and go to the tavern\' 

　　It seems that from the moment Azief attacked the tavern, a comprehensive detail of what he has been g doing has already been reported to the highest authority of the city

　　If Azief did not do anything shocking, there is no need for such an investigation

　　But since he had done something, the surveillance system that the city had installed quickly create a profile of him

　　From the moment that he had attacked the tavern, someone had already informed the city officials and the city officials quickly send a profile of the attacker. 

　　It takes only a few minutes for someone to quickly analyze Azief and Katarina behavior and then send a summary of their activity to Arthur. 

　　From this it could be seen that the city is very organized. 

　　Arthur rubs his forehead and then sighed as he leans his back onto his throne and then put down his neck on the comfy head rest

　　Even though it is called a throne, it is more of a chair that seems like a chair you would find in some executive office of a large CEO of a large company. 

　　He created a very comfy chair because the job is very stressful. 

　　\'Do we need to send some soldiers to contain the scene?\' Sam spoke and Arthur sighed. He finally sits back straight once again

　　He put his hand covering his mouth and close his eyes.

　　This is the one thing he did not want to do. If he mobilizes the soldiers, then this thing might become bigger than he intended

　　  Arthur once again rubs his temple.

　　Ahmad then whisper something to his ears and Arthur nodded.

　　\'Go, send the soldiers. But only contain the scene. Mobilize the formation to protect the city. Lock it down to that district. Evacuate any civilians that is in that district. Attack only if necessary but if there is no danger, do not provoke either one\'

　　Sam nodded and was about to go out from the city lord residence when Arthur suddenly said

　　\'Sam!\'

　　\'Hmm?\'

　　\'Contain the scene but do not interfere. Remember this

　　Sam raised his eyebrows and then narrowed his eyes

　　\'Do not interfere?\'

　　\'We are in the dark right now. let\'s not get our city involved in some factional war.\'

　　\'You think this is Crime Alliance?\'

　　\'Might be. Might be not. Regardless, it is better not to offend. We already have many enemies. I like to reduce that\' Sam nodded and then leave the room. 

　　Ahmad then excuse the messenger with the wave of his hand and then Arthur got up from his seat. 

　　He looks at Ahmad, sighed and then said

　　\'Accompany me\' Ahmad nodded and they both walk to the balcony. 

　　The balcony is very beautiful with intricate carving and murals of dragons and other mystical creatures carved onto the walls of the balcony

　　The balcony had a carved stone fence to protect people from falling down. It has a n open air design to it but it had been modified many times. 

　　Arthur actually copy the famous balcony of the Pandemonium Palace. 

　　The throne room of \'that person\' is high above the clouds. 

　　It is like some place of divinity. But it is known by many in that throne room of His, there is a balcony where he would sometimes just stand there and look down. 

　　Or maybe he looks in the horizons. 

　　Nobody really knows since not many people in Pandemonium dares to look straight at the eye of \'that person\'

　　Maybe he looks down at the people under his rule. 

　　Or maybe he looks at the horizons. Or maybe, he looks up the sky and see beyond it.

　　Nobody knows what he sees or do in that balcony. Was he contemplating his thoughts or was he just simply emptying his thought, looking at nothing?

　　The thought of the strongest man in the world. When people see that Palace, stretching high up toward the Heavens, the people of Pandemonium felt safe.

　　To the people of Pandemonium, Death Monarch has always been the umbrella where they shelter from the outside world.

　　All over the world, people who wanted fame, wanted power, wanted peace, wanted war all came to that place. 

　　Contradictory wishes, tangled desires, all of them is present in that most powerful city in the world. 

　　Those who wanted fame would always have wanted to pit themselves against the forces of Pandemonium. 

　　Those who wanted power would either enter one of the Three Armies or serve as one of the official of the most powerful regime in the world.

　　Those who no longer want to fight in wars and battles and wanted peace and tranquility, there is no more perfect place then to live in Pandemonium where there are no great power dares stretch their dark hands to.

　　And yet, those who wanted war also come to that place. Arthur admired Pandemonium. It was strict and yet loose. It was authoritarian yet democratic. It had all these contradictory feeling to it.

　　It is a chaotic order, if he were to describe it. 

　　World Government is orderly, the Republic are disciplined, the League of Freedom is chaotic but Pandemonium is something else. 

　　At times it appears like a theocracy with Death Monarch as its God. 

　　At times, it looks like an absolute monarchy. Yet, at the same time, there is democratic process when Death Monarch is not present.

　　There are many consensuses between the great power that even if Death Monarch is not there, the government that he had created would still be there, functioning. 

　　Yet, everyone is very sure that the moment Death Monarch is no longer, Pandemonium would crumble. 

　　Because the reason why Pandemonium could stand and not break under its division is because in the middle of it, is Death Monarch.

　　And the scene of him, standing on the balcony of his majestic Palace, brings calms to the heart of the people of Pandemonium

　　And that was what he tried to do with his residence. As a symbol to his people. 

　　Arthur once had the opportunity to go to that Palace. 

　　It was there he saw the famous balcony. He remembers every inch of it. At that time, he was not the city lord and he was but a simple person in a delegation to Pandemonium.

　　It was during the regency of Loki. If it was at the time of Death Monarch, he would not even dare to step into that throne room.

　　The design of the balcony was one of a kind, symbolizing the strength of Pandemonium and its majesty.

　　In that balcony, how many earth shattering decision was decided there? When he stands there, it felt like he is standing on a piece of history and that awed him

　　Then the Multiversal Convergence happens. And he is no longer just a small man, trying to survive the tide of the era.

　　He rides the waves and the waves brought him here, to the most mysterious part of the Ten Seas, the Turbulent Sea. 

　　He found an island. This island would then expand almost every day. But no matter how large it has become, it is still a land that is surrounded by water on all sides. 

　　This island is however the size of a continent. That is how large an island these days. In the old days, with the size it now possesses, it would be considered a continent.

　　But considering that even the continent of Europe, if Asia expanded to such a size that it could fit all seven continents of the world in the past and more, there must be a new way to define island and continents. 

　　It is also the same for the Seven Seas.
