Chapter 1653 Daimon Aftermath -Part 2



The Interim Leader got up in time for a speech to the public, addressing what needs to be done and what shall be done in the future but Jin was a little hesitant. "I am the Interim Leader. I should not be here for too long. Saying all these things will just make life worse for the citizens of Daimon City." Jin said to Page who had prepared the script.

"If you do not give them hope, the military will. And you saw how those old men had manipulated behind the scenes and kept grumbling. If you do not take charge of it now, they will be released in another 24 hours and Daimon City is going back to a city held by the Empire." Page said. 

"Sigh, this is troublesome," Jin said as he picked up the script to read it once more Page who was now being assigned as the temporary assistant had started to receive calls from news outlets requesting Jin to announce his statement on the aftermath and what needed to be done.

But before Page could deem her master to be ready for the interview, Jin accepted all of the news outlet broadcasts. And he was still in his T-shirt and shorts while sitting on the bed. "Everyone who saw it was a little shocked by the Interim Leader's lack of etiquette."

"Let's not beat around the bush. I first apologise for not being in proper attire but we had a rough night yesterday so please forgive me." Jin said as he started looking at the papers once more before sighing. "Alright, my assistant told me to follow a script and provide you guys with some hope. I initially refused and later decided to accede to her request." 

"However, the more I read, the more troubled I feel. This is because there was nothing awe inspiring and just a few paragraphs of words in hopes to uplift you guys. Before, I continue I am not saying she's bad at making the script. In fact, I find her script one of the best I ever seen." Jin then turned the camera a little and showed Page's face.

"Yeah, see. She's the extremely serious kind. All prim and proper and had already prepared a suit for me to wear before I accept the calls." The public laughed a little as Jin tried to be informal.

"But I declined because this is how I feel right now. I am tired, weary but a little glad that the storm that was gone through here yesterday was already over before we knew it. It was not without the efforts of the many men, women and Mechanoids who had made this a reality. Without their help, there would be no me sitting on this bed in shirts and shorts and making a video call with all of you."

"Moving forward, we had seen how terribly selfish our neighbours were. Do I resent them for not helping? Kind of. Especially not a single one had decided to even give us a bullet. All they did was block their walls with more barriers hoping that we cleared it ourselves. 

"Oh and we show them that we could but moving forward, the partnership between them will have a price on it. Depending on how steep the tariffs are, we will see about that." Jin said.

"But moving forward, we are to investigate who put those Monster Lures outside these dungeons. If it was one monster lure, I would have understood that they might want to create chaos. But to put monster lures all around the city and coordinate the activation of those lures, then that is the motive.

"There is someone out there who is capable of isolating Daimon City from her neighbours, and coordinating all these monster lures thinking that they are capable of escaping the consequences. I might not be a citizen of Daimon. But I am part of Archduke's Army, Dyke's Pike. And the Archduke will not let go of those who are responsible for sowing chaos within his own district." 

"So, as of today, I declare that we will be increasing the military budget to not just recover from this loss but also to prepare us for future attacks, future infiltration against Daimon's well being." 

"This is totally not what I had expected from Jin. This is not hope to lift at all." Page thought to herself while nervously holding her clipboard.

"…Or that is what most leaders who went through this would think and they will go to war," Jin added and spoke the last sentence slowly.

"We are not going to do that. We are going to do more than that. Military Expansion costs money but the development of Daimon City and the defence of it would be its priority. More funds would be poured into Diamondz Corp research to improve our defences as well as increase our self sufficiency. We saw how the neighbours had neglected us and so we need to be self sufficient." 

"The only good thing right now is that we have a ton shit of loot from the monster's death. We have enough food to feed people and we have resources that we can utilise." 

"Language! Jin! Language!" Page tried to whisper loudly but all the others in the broadcast could hear it and they laughed. But as they laughed, they knew the difficulties that were coming.
