Today, the sun was early as its golden rays illuminated the world.

The leaves of trees shivered and danced as the dew from the previous night was evaporated from their surfaces.

As their wet surface became dry, they seemed to exude a happier and more vibrant demeanor as they danced and absolved the rays of the sun.

Today, even the trees and their leaves were happy.

Happiness, this was the overall sentiment in Planet Darvis today.

Happiness and excitement, these were the 2 overriding emotions as a day that every citizen of Planet Darvis anticipated finally came.

After a month since the very first election was held, today was finally the day for the swearing-in ceremony. Despite the fact that it was already a month, most citizens still found it hard to believe the changing era.

They loved their feelings of unbelief though, it made them feel happier since it did nothing in stopping the going trend which meant that they were not dreaming. They instead reveled in it.

After the election a month ago, led by Legolas, Shanks' swearing-in ceremony started being organized. Through his bits and pieces of advice, they saw the need for a Vice President and already elected her.

After much thought, Candidate Lydia became Shanks' Vice.

Though Legolas also brought up a need for the Senate and other governmental offices, everything could not be done at once considering this was the first time. Those offices would be added slowly one at a time.

The ceremony was held at the new Presidential Villa that was just constructed less than a week ago by the reliable Landmark Construction Company.

The building was a gigantic rectangle-shaped mansion decorated with a pure white color. From afar, it looked like a mansion straight from heaven.

The swearing-in ceremony would take place inside the mansion.

From the early hours of the morning, every citizen of Planet Darvis already woke up. Their excitement was understandable, all across the planet, the atmosphere was like they were about to experience an iconic festival.

Hours before the intended 10:00am could reach, the Presidential Villa was already filled with patriotic Darvis Citizens who wanted to welcome their President.

Those that could not attend physically watched through the virtual screens that were projected in various centers. At exactly 10:00am, it started.

It started through a light reception where the guests were provided a platform to be introduced to each other, while also giving the main guests of the swearing-in ceremony time to arrive.

Cheers soon erupted as certain dignitaries arrived.

Shanks, Lydia, alongside High Officials like Legolas and the others were brought to the Presidential Villa through a chariot pulled by flying Wind Horses.

Originally, after this in Legolas' plan came the introduction of the head table guests but not today, Planet Darvis was simply too excited and impatient for that.

Even Shanks and Lydia could not wait for it to happen.

According to them, it was better to keep everything simple.

Instantly after their arrival, Shanks took centerstage as he climbed the podium while waving to the tens of thousands of citizens that gathered before him.

Waving at them, this Summoner felt a surreal feeling in his heart.

'This feeling is nice…, I hope I don't let them down'.

In no time, he stood before the pulpit-like table where a book was there waiting for him. He looked inside, smiled, before raising his right hand up.

"I, Shanks Quinton do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of President of Planet Darvis, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the laws and Constitution of Planet Darvis".

"I swear to always defend the sovereignty of Planet Darvis".

"So, help me God".

Most high-grade Supers didn't believe in the notion of a God, they only respected power but most citizens in the Planet believed in a higher existence. Legolas insisted on that last part since the President was addressing the citizens.

As soon as Shanks said the last part, he officially became the President of Planet Darvis. For a few seconds, total silence dominated among the citizens as they fully took in the gravitas of this moment.

Yes, they just witnessed history.

"President Shanks!"

"President Shanks!"

"President Shanks!"

A lot of the citizens heaved sighs of relief, it was not a bluff Afterall. Their emotion was so strong that a lot of them even broke down in tears.

For a long time, the cheers did not abate even as President Shanks left the stage for his Vice to climb the podium and also give her oath.

Compared to the President, Lydia had a more neutral expression on.

She raised her right hand.

"I, Lydia Jones, do swear in the name of God and all Supers that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the Constitution of Planet Darvis as by law established and that I will discharge the duty upon which I am about to enter".

The cheers were tamer but were still filled with emotion nonetheless.

After this, the citizens felt like a great burden was lifted off their hearts.

This was the true dawn of a new era.

After the oaths, before the President's official speech which was the last item in the agenda, 2 statues were to be unveiled.

Made by some of the best aesthetic-focused Earth Elementalists in Planet Darvis, both statues were extremely lifelike, the citizens immediately knew them.

Surprisingly, the first statue was not that of the President, rather it was that of Legolas.

Holding a Rifle that was deliberately made to look sharper and powerful to dramatic effect, Legolas' eyes were focused up at an unknown enemy. He was not standing on bare ground, beneath him was the depiction of a mighty beast.

Predator's black skin gleamed dangerously under the glow of the sun; the mighty Nightmare Beast was depicted to look like a mighty angel's mount.

On top Predator and with the Rifle on his hand, Legolas looked like the Divine General that would lead Planet Darvis into wars and win as conquerors.

"Our Savior!"

No one knew who started it but as soon as it started, the chant gained momentum. Legolas' feat in the battle of Hellfire Mountains could never be forgotten, he was forever immortalized in Planet Darvis' history.

Despite knowing of this statue beforehand, being exposed to it now and as the citizens reacted to it, Legolas felt a strange feeling engulf his heart.

He could not describe this feeling, it just felt good.

-----

Congratulations! You have received another Planetary Legendary Point!

----

Even as the cheers erupted higher, President Shanks' statue was also unveiled. The President had his right hand raised like he was swearing the oath over again, the cheers grew even higher as the citizens drowned in the excitement.

As the excitement finally died down after the unveiling of the statues, President Shanks finally took centerstage again for his official Presidential speech.

"Good afternoon…" President Shanks paused.

He refused a written speech, in his terms, he didn't just want to give a speech for the essence of it, he wanted to channel his passion for his planet.

He didn't accept a speech but he read a sample written by Legolas for reference.

President Shanks smiled. "Thank you to everyone gathered here and others throughout the Planet who are listening in".

"To the High Officials, High Official Legolas, High Official Eleanor, and High Official Newton, and to all the Grade C Superhumans who made today a reality, thank you for everything, I am honored to have you all as allies".

"Most of all, I want to thank all the citizens for your trust in my vision and ideals for the Planet. When I campaigned, I promised to do my very best to take Planet Darvis to the peak, I am repeating this promise".

"The oath I have affirmed is a public promise to carry out my duties guided by no interest other than the public's and the planet's interest".

"High Official Legolas initiated the act of Democracy to combat the lack of transparency and accountability in leadership, I am determined to realize his goal for the perfect leadership for our country".

"I promise to build on his legacy and vision for our planet".

"Lastly…" His eyes became sharp. "I promise to stay strong for the Planet. For any threats, both internal and external, I promise to keep the safety of the public as the priority and try my best to combat any offensive approach".'

"When the enemies come again, Planet Darvis shall be ready". His sharp and powerful eyes gleamed.

"Planet Darvis shall become good again". He declared.

"Planet Darvis shall become better". He affirmed.

"To conclude, I want to thank you all again for coming today".

With that, the President's speech came to an end.

Planet Darvis was thrown into a cacophony of jubilation.
