Man in the Ark: Revitalizing Kazdel

"The royal court system has lasted for a thousand years in the history of Sarkaz. In the wars of Kazdel, the contributions made by the various royal courts are obvious to all."

“The Royal Court has made great contributions to Kazdel, but it has also restricted Kazdel’s development to a certain extent.”

"The knowledge, history, and magical resources of the Sarkaz are all concentrated in the hands of the various royal courts, which leads to a huge gap in knowledge levels among the Sarkaz.

The various royal courts are not united, which will seriously hinder the formulation and implementation of national decisions."

"As early as eleven years ago, when the Military Committee was established, the prototype of abolishing the Royal Court system was already in place. At that time, we did not see clearly the future path of Kazdel. Now we know that the future Kazdel is no longer suitable for the Royal Court system."

"What the new Kazdel needs is democracy. Every Sarkaz has the opportunity to participate in the governance of the country. So we proposed the plan of Kazdel Democratic Parliament."

"We will select a group of suitable people from all the Sarkaz to join the Democratic Parliament. Together we will decide on the future of the country."

"The heads of each royal court can choose to nominate themselves or members of their clan to join the council. Each royal court has two seats. From now on, there will no longer be a distinction between royal court members and ordinary Sarkaz in Kazdel. Everyone will only have the identity of Sarkaz."

"If you have any questions, please raise them now."

Theresa introduced the reasons for abolishing the royal court system and implementing a democratic parliamentary system, as well as the specific implementation plan of the democratic parliament.

The next thing to look at is the attitude of each royal court. As early as when the Military Committee was first established, Theresa and Theresis had already begun to weaken the power of each royal court, but this time is different.

At that time, the power separated from the Royal Court was still in their hands and was only restricted by the Military Committee. Now these rights belonging to the Royal Court are distributed to ordinary Sarkaz.

This would make some lords of the royal court who value identity, status and follow traditions feel insulted, such as the Blood Demon Lord Dukare.

In his opinion, the democratic parliamentary system would allow ordinary Sarkaz of lowly status and tainted blood to sit on the same side with him, which would be more painful than killing him.

But he had already reached an agreement with Roy, and his pride as the Blood Demon Lord prevented him from betraying the agreement, and just now when he stood up and prepared to leave.

Neczrei, Lamaren, Theresa, and Theresis were all ready to take action, and there was no room for him to refuse.

"Boy Roy, this is truly an unprecedented royal court meeting..." the old ancestor of the dead souls beside Roy sighed.

He himself doesn't care about the existence of the Royal Court. The souls of the Sarkaz only care about the survival and development of the Sarkaz. Whatever system is beneficial to the Sarkaz, he will support it unconditionally.

"What is the attitude of the Dead Soul Court?" Theresa turned her head and looked at the sword and asked.

"I believe in Roy's ability, and so do all the souls. I agree to abolish the royal court system." The dead soul became the first supporter.

"Theresa, it's time for Kazdel to make a change. Since you have made the decision, and Roy has shown me his ability. I have no objection, just go ahead and do it."

As the most senior person here, Niezilei chose to trust his two students again.

"Teacher, thank you." Theresa bowed to Neczrei, and Theresis, who was standing behind her, also bowed.

The Scavenger King, Neczre, deserves their respect.

"The Banshee Court has no objection. For hundreds of years, the Banshees have always stood on your side, and this time is no exception."

The Banshee Lord Lamaren raised her hand to show her agreement. She had contributed to the proposal to abolish the royal court system, so of course she agreed unconditionally.

Theresa then looked at the messengers of the lich and the Cyclops, Ermengarde and Elki.

The Cyclops and Lich tribes are not in Kazdel right now, and they cannot make decisions for their tribesmen.

"If Mr. Fremont had come to the meeting in person, he would have slammed the table and left long ago." Ermengarde knew that the teacher would never agree, but this is Kazdel, not Leitania.

"Your Highness, the teacher is a stubborn person and may not agree." Ermengarde could only bite the bullet and say.

"Well, it doesn't matter. Just assume that the Lich King has chosen to abstain, and the seats allocated to the Lich King will be temporarily withdrawn." Theresa saw Ermengarde's dilemma and made the decision for her.

"Ah, this..." Ermengarde originally wanted to let Princess Theresa discuss it with the teacher, but she didn't expect that the Lich King's Court would be directly regarded as a waiver.

"Ms. Elki, what does the Cyclops think?" Theresa asked Elki, who was sitting next to Ermengarde.

"Your Highness Theresa, the Cyclops is not in Kazdel right now. It is not convenient for us to interfere in the internal affairs here, so I plan to stay here for a while and make a decision after getting to know this land again."

Compared to Ermengarde's answer, Elki's answer was more inclined to agree to abolish the royal court.

"I'm looking forward to the day when the Cyclops gives the answer." Theresa nodded, and then looked at the Blood Demon Lord Dukare, who slammed the table and prepared to leave at the beginning.

Everyone present looked at Ducare. He had been keeping his eyes closed and not saying a word ever since Roy stopped him from leaving by banging the table.

He originally thought that out of sight, out of mind, but as others agreed one after another, Ducare found himself forced into a corner with no way out.

"I wonder what the Blood Court's opinion is?" This question was asked by Tracys. History is a huge boomerang, and the experience of the last royal court meeting is repeated again.

"I have no objection. But..." Dukare opened his eyes and looked at Roy who was standing next to Theresa.

"Roy, I hope you can keep your promise."

"Of course I will comply, and I hope you will too," Roy replied without hesitation.

"Abolishing the royal court system, what a ridiculous decision. Even if I agree, I don't know what those lunatics inside the Blood Demon will do. I can't guarantee whether they will do anything reckless." Dukare closed his eyes again, unwilling to look at the people present.

"If you can't even deal with the blood descendants who go against your will, you can ask me for help. After all, I still have something to take from the blood demon." Roy reminded "kindly".

"......" Ducare ignored him, as if he couldn't hear what Roy said at all.

After getting Ducare's consent, Theresa deliberately looked at Roy. She was a little curious about what kind of deal Roy and Ducare had made.

Roy shook his head and indicated that he would talk about it after the meeting.

"Mr. Shapeshifter outside the door, what do you think?"

Roy thought the session of asking for opinions was over, but he didn't expect Theresa to suddenly say this to the door of the meeting room.

As Theresa finished her words, the door opened.

A guard walked in slowly, his body melting a little bit with every step he took. By the time he reached the conference table, the shapeshifter had completely shed the image of a guard and returned to his normal appearance.

He was an ordinary-looking little boy with a hood on his head, and his racial features could not be seen.

But the Shapeshifters are the oldest royal court of the Sarkaz, having lasted for more than nine thousand years, almost as long as the history of the Sarkaz itself.

The shapeshifter did not directly answer Theresa's question, but instead stared at Roy who was standing beside him.

"New Demon King, do you think we will agree?" the shapeshifter suddenly asked.

"I'll make you agree." Roy stretched out his hand to the shapeshifter, motioning him to put his hand on it.

A pair of cold hands covered with slimy mucus wrapped around Roy's hands, causing him to shiver.

"It's about to begin, Mr. Shapeshifter," Roy reminded, and the Black Crown connected to the Shapeshifter's mind.

Roy pulled the two of them into a starry sky, which was a scene constructed by Roy based on his imagination.

The Shapeshifter had never seen the world beyond Terra's skies, and looked around curiously.

"Mr. Shapeshifter, beneath your feet is the Terra where we live."

"This is Terra...", a huge blue sphere appeared in the eyes of the shapeshifter, and a huge sea of clouds kept rolling on the surface of the sphere. Terra was constantly rotating, and the whole world was divided into light and dark.

"This is the truth of the world...", the shapeshifter muttered to Roy.

"No, this is just a corner of the world. Look at this starry sky. Every bright light here could be Terra, or it could be nothing. The world is full of unknowns, waiting for us to explore."

Roy waved his hand, and the starry sky began to rotate, with planets constantly being destroyed and reborn...

In the meeting room, Roy let go of the shapeshifter's hand. His goal had been achieved.

When the shapeshifter's eyes opened, confusion and expectation appeared in his eyes, a feeling he had never experienced in thousands of years.

He turned to look at Theresa and said, "The Shapeshifters agree to abolish the Royal Court's decision."

Theresa didn't know what Roy showed the shapeshifter to cause such a change in him.

However, after obtaining the consent of the shapeshifters, the proposal to abolish the royal court system was officially passed with five people agreeing and two abstaining.

"Okay, since everyone has no objection to abolishing the Royal Court, I declare the Kazdel Democratic Parliament officially established."

Theresa returned to the main seat and announced the result loudly.

Applause broke out in the conference room. Everyone present knew that Kazdel's future might be difficult, but Sarkaz were never afraid of difficulties.

The applause gradually stopped, and Theresa picked up the documents that had been distributed earlier.

"Then, please pick up the documents on the table. They contain the content that needs to be discussed at the first meeting of the Kazdel Democratic Council - the "Kazdel Revitalization Plan."
