Chapter 606 New Status; Plans
Planet Nak…
Inside the Presidential Villa of Nak State, at this moment, Legolas was standing before the sovereign of Nak State again, President Dunk.
This time, they were not alone.
Alongside them in here was Admiral Zhao and Chief Admiral Gregory, the strongest and 3rd strongest Admirals of the Nak Navy.
President Dunk stood, silently looking outside his window again which was something that already became a hobby of his in recent years.
"The Azure Pantheon, the Crimson Dynasty, the Warlord Alliance…, these are the 3 Universal Civilizations governing the universe".
"They\'re the hegemons of the universe".
"The Gundogan Star Cluster under the rule of the Gundogan High Race is a region under the jurisdiction of the Azure Pantheon, and we the Minerva Star System are under the Gundogan Star Cluster".
"Decades ago, when I was younger, as a budding talented Presidential candidate of Nak State, I had the privilege to visit the headquarters of one of the 3 Universal Civilizations located at the center of the universe".
"There, I saw the pinnacle of life and supers".
"There, I saw some of the strongest Beyond Grade A\'s all across the universe gather".
"There, I saw 2 Beyond Grade A\'s clash in battle for the first time".
"There, I saw peerless geniuses from over a thousand races across the universe gather".
"There, I felt an inferiority complex for the first time in my life".
"There also, I met him, the Soul Emperor Clorex".
"Then, he was just a Grade B+ Super".
"Recognized as one of the Beyond Grade A seeds of the Azure Pantheon right from when he was just 40, he underwent special training right there in the headquarters of one of the strongest powers in the world".
"There, he lived up to the expectations of his potential, blossoming into a peerless genius that could only be born in countless lifetimes".
"They say geniuses are 9 times out of 10 always arrogant".
"Clorex was one of them, he was arrogance personified".
"When we just arrived, he challenged one of our Calamity Grade retainers that was sent as entourage by the Gundogan High Race to a battle".
"Calamity Grades are all egoists; they are all veteran warriors with big egos that were rightfully stroked after a thousand battles of suffering and survivals".
"Then, the Calamity Fist Agnarok politely refused the challenge due to his respect for the Azure Pantheon but the arrogant Clorex was adamant".
"He spat on his face, hehe…," President Dunk chuckled, at this moment he felt like an old pirate who was reminiscing the good old days of adventures.
"Agnarok was a Pugilist, they don\'t have the best reputation in terms of their personalities, he lost it after that provocation".
"This provocation heralded one of the most shocking and eye-opening moment of my life that partly shaped who I am today".
"The Soul Emperor, then just a Grade B+ Super challenged Agnarok who was a renowned Calamity Grade Super to a duel".
"Guess what?" President Dunk turned to face Legolas for the first time with a calm smile. "They claimed it was a draw but for those of us who saw it in real time, it was definitely not a draw". He chuckled again.
"The Soul Emperor won…, as a Grade B+ Super".
"Can you believe it?"
"The Azure Pantheon claimed it was a draw to save some face for the Calamity Fist but it didn\'t matter, what matters was that I was able to experience one of the most eye-opening experiences of my life".
"Then, I thought…, this is definitely the pinnacle of talent!"
"No other genius can attain this height, ever!"
"Over a century later, I was proven right…," He smiled gently as he looked at Legolas. "Till today".
"Legolas, if you ever realize your Calamity Path, you will become one of the strongest Calamity Grades if not the strongest to grace the Minerva Star System".
"I want to use this opportunity to extend my best interests to you".
President Dunk kept a gentle smile on his face. "Legolas…, will you become the next President of Nak State after me?"
"…"
Legolas was stunned, he was dumbfounded.
"Don\'t worry about the stress, I will still be alive then and I can delegate capable assistants to help you with all the administrative duties".
"You will have all the time to focus on your power and like you always wanted, you will have all the resources of a state at your disposal".
"Think of how much faster you will grow stronger with so much resources at your disposal".
"Who knows? You may become the next Soul Emperor".
Legolas smiled for the first time. "I really feel like royalty when you put it that way, I never expected my status to be that high already but sorry, I have no intentions of becoming a President".
"What of becoming an official warrior of Nak State?"
"No".
President Dunk sighed in regret. "What a pity".
"But I hope you\'ll always remain our ally".
"So long you also always remain an ally to me".
"We will". President Dunk replied immediately.
The President located his chair and sat down. "I went through the list that you provided".
"I am shocked, most of the metal alloys and materials on that list are extremely rare materials that most people in the Gundogan Star Cluster don\'t know of all their lives".
"How do you know them and what do you intend to do with them?"
"I prefer not to speak".
President Dunk nodded. "That\'s reasonable".
"So…, can I get them or not?" Legolas looked hopefully at the President.
"Your first to third wants have been fulfilled, effective immediately but your 4th want will be delayed since even for us, it is incredibly hard to get some of the materials that you wrote there".
"We\'ll give you all the ones available now and sort the others later, is that acceptable with you?"
Legolas smiled. "Yes".
"In exchange…," President Dunk\'s face turned solemn. "I want you to fulfill your part of our agreement against the Beast Coalition".
Hearing that, Legolas\' ears perked up. "Update me".
President Dunk gestured for Chief Admiral Gregor to step up who did not hesitate. Using a slide, this Chief Admiral painted the full picture of the progress of the war between the Beast Coalition and the Nak and Ackermann States.
The beasts were indeed running wild, both States had suffered a lot.
Legolas took a deep breath. "I need a month to prepare".
"In a month, we\'ll implement my plan".
