From troll tribes to elf empires

Chapter 279 Prelude to Going to the Wilderness

As early as the barbaric period when Nesta was not yet born, although there was no official name, the matter of 'impeachment' already existed in disguised form;

It's just that at that time, the form was very bloody. When the tribesmen were dissatisfied with the chief, they would often simply choose to kill him physically.

When history entered the early stages of the Rune Calendar, Nesta established a series of policies and initially determined the positions of the 'Baomin Yuan', 'Government', 'Law Court', 'Army', and the 'Rune Parliament'.

Specific powers and responsibilities;

What the plebiscite gained from this was the power to supervise the ruling government and the resulting impeachment power.

When an impeachment occurs, 'the entire House of Commons will become the initiator of the impeachment, the Rune Council will become the impeachment court, and the rest of the military, political, and legal parties will only attend as observers';

And 'abuse of power by high-ranking public officials, betrayal of public trust, and crimes caused by dereliction of duty' are all targets that can be targeted by 'impeachment'.

In addition, the result of 'impeachment' is determined to be the removal from office of those found guilty, thereby giving the legal organs the power to interrogate. If necessary, those impeached and convicted will have to undergo legal proceedings thereafter.

Sanctions in other respects.'

From this point on, the relationship between the people and high-ranking public officials was initially guided from barbarism to civilization, and "impeachment" became a serious political process based on procedures rather than unruly brute force.

And when the time came to October of the 66th year of the Rune Calendar, that is, at the beginning of the return from the ‘Great Refuge’, Nesta began to promote the codification of the ‘Impeachment Rules’;

Therefore, the Law Court was ordered to sort out the ‘impeachment habits’ of the previous thirty years and draft them into a first draft of legislation.

Afterwards, in December of the 66th year of the Rune calendar, the "Draft Law on Impeachment of High Public Officials of the Republic" was submitted to the Rune Council and officially entered the review stage.

In the "Draft", in addition to the previous impeachment rules for important members of the ruling government being converted into articles, for the first time, the leaders of the Rune Council and the heads of committees are also included in the scope of impeachment, which can be regarded as a further step to expand the scope of the Rune Council.

, and other members of Congress took down the "sacred altar" and added another weight to the end of the "government tutelage".

However, there is a problem.

At the moment when the 'Tutorial Period' has not yet ended, the Rune Parliament is the de facto highest authority in the Republic, and the members are not born based on 'popular election' or the like, but from their own contributions to the Republic.

Only through meritorious deeds can you get the qualification to attend.

Strictly speaking, all existing institutions in the Republic actually receive work guidance from the Rune Council;

However, the Parliament itself only needs to be responsible for the concept of 'republic', and of course the heads of all levels, including the Speaker, are also responsible.

In other words, there is no institution that can be the ‘initiator of impeachment’, because no institution can fully represent the conceptual entity of the ‘republic’ to exercise this power.

Therefore, it is unreasonable for the first draft of the "Draft" to imitate the regulations when the ruling government was impeached and transfer the impeachment power of important seats such as the Speaker of the Parliament to the House of Commons.

Therefore, due to the fact that "regulatory discipline" still exists at this stage, the "impeachment" of important members of the parliament has become an "automatic initiation clause" that is somewhat self-deceptive.

That is, when the actor's 'treason', 'crime', 'dereliction of duty', or 'loss caused by his decision-making' becomes a public fact, the impeachment statute will automatically take effect;

When the impeachment ordinance enters into effect, the Parliament, the tribunal, and the research, politics, law, military, and business parties will unite to establish a legally authorized 'representative entity of the Provisional Republic' and become the initiator of the impeachment.

Party and receiving party.

But before deciding whether to initiate impeachment, the Provisional Republic Representative Entity will first hold a hearing and discuss subsequent matters after a series of evidence, voting and other procedures.

Of course, the 'law' has no wisdom, and it is actually impossible to 'initiate' it automatically. However, when there are logical contradictions in the ownership of the rights and responsibilities of all parties, this plan is temporarily formulated as a temporary rights and interests measure;

However, the Rune Council will not always be superior to all parties. When it ends its special mission at a special stage, it will be the moment when the ownership of power and responsibilities is truly clarified.

And by then, impeachment will not be as troublesome as it is today, and it is still unclear whether there will even be a need to set up a "political impeachment" for members of Congress in addition to the law;

After all, when the power is transferred, the institution that takes over the power has more "in-office immunity from prosecution" than the 'consultative' Rune Parliament.

Discussions on the many problems existing in the "Draft" continued for a considerable period of time, and it was not until early March of Rune Calendar 67 that the first version of the "Impeachment Law" was truly promulgated.

Then, under pressure from Nesta, the parliamentary provisions of the bill were put into practical use for the first time in a short period of time.

From this point of view, "automatic initiation" is indeed self-deception, and Nesta actually acted as the "initiator".

~~~~~~~

When the time came to mid-March, representatives from various industries from the headquarters and other cities gathered at the headquarters. Together with 73 members of the Rune Parliament, as well as representatives of the military, political and legal parties, they formed a "temporary entity" to participate in

Enter the 'hearing' held against Nesta.

After a period of oath-taking, the hearing officially began.

The first is the self-certification stage. Nesta entered the venue like a patio, and began to make his own statement under the gaze of many people sitting high up.

During this process, he did not make any extraordinary defense for his dereliction of duty, but simply stated the facts at the time in an orderly manner.

Next is the evidence-producing session. More than a dozen witnesses took the stage one after another and explained what they saw and heard at that time;

Among the witnesses here are witch doctors, officers and soldiers, and several representatives of investigators, all of whom were personally present at the scene of Double Kings 034 City at that time;

In addition to the above-mentioned "own people", there were even several asylum seekers who came on stage at one time and spoke in their native language while trembling.

The testimonies given by all these witnesses almost all focused on the expressions of "urgent situation", "time is tight", and "really helpless";

In other words, their testimony was actually completely biased towards Nesta's side, and even the asylum seekers were full of 'flattering' in fear.

It was the discussion stage again. The discussion was held behind closed doors for up to seven days, but in fact it only took three minutes of discussion to reach the final conclusion, and it took another one to write it out.

A decent 'reasonable statement'.

The ‘letter of reasons’ issued by the ‘provisional entity’ reads:

[There is no perfect policy in the world. In fact, every political decision made by the speaker of parliament, important committee members, and even senior officials of the ruling government will face a certain degree of "uncertainty of consequences";

If, due to the existence of such uncertainty, they have to be held to account indefinitely afterwards, then the future policies of the Republic will be uncontrollably biased towards extreme conservatism, which is not conducive to our sustainable development;

Therefore, we tend to regard the uncertainties faced by policies in the implementation stage as risks that must be borne, and the impeachment of policy makers needs to be carried out very carefully.

In this case, when His Excellency Nesta was making decisions, he was indeed in an unstable environment that required rapid evacuation, and the consequences of his actions did not cause irreparable losses to the Republic, so it is even more important.

Exemptions are made where appropriate.

For the above reasons, the decision made by this ‘temporary entity’ is - ‘not to implement impeachment’.]

In this regard, the hearing was closed to the satisfaction of all parties.

Representatives of various industries believe that they have successfully retained the pioneers and combated the dark psychology of some groups;

Members of the Assembly believed that they were satisfying the political mystique of the capricious Speaker while preserving his popularity;

Bystanders such as the ruling government and the military are happy that the republic is still the same republic and they have not lost their reliable supreme leader.

If anyone is dissatisfied, it might be Nesta who was declared 'not guilty'. He is a bit idealistic, but he actually doesn't like this conclusion;

However, Nesta is not a masochist after all. This time, there is no need to be as decisive as 'the body dies before the law is fulfilled'. Since he has seen the establishment of a general procedure, he has implemented it completely.

After one pass, it's almost enough.

Perhaps, just as it is written in the 'Reason Letter' that 'there is no perfect strategy in the world', this 'Impeachment Law' also needs to be slowly improved over time. It is enough to lead it to this step by yourself.

.

Moreover, some of the reasons in the "book" are indeed valid, and high-level officials do need to be relieved of some worries when making decisions.

Therefore, he just accepted the result.

And when the matter came to an end and the vast majority of participants felt that the great pioneer would continue to lead them as before, something unexpected happened again.

A month has passed since the end of the hearing. During this period, the Rune Council, driven by Nesta, formulated the "Voting Weight Plan for the Assembly Speaker Election", and this case became the one that Nesta participated in during this term.

One last decision;

On the third day after it was established, Nesta solemnly submitted his "resignation", thus once again causing a big wave among all parties.

~~~~~~~

Headquarters, inner ring rail transit vehicle;

"Have you heard? Your Excellency, the Pioneer, is resigning!" A fit and sexy elf girl in a short skirt with no apparent age asked the passenger next to her.

"How could you not have heard of it? Why do you have to go to the field if you are so good?"

Although he didn't know the questioner himself, he felt that the appearance he often saw around him in the past few days was somewhat familiar, so the young male elf who had already completed the advanced stage during his internship responded.

.

"Is there any conspiracy here? Like the intrigues between the races in the north?"

There was a scorching flame in the female elf's eyes, but she didn't know where it was burning. Is it the topic itself, or the interlocutor at this time?

And the male, in his sudden desire to express himself, brought a bit of heroism to his words,

"Hmph, it's impossible! Do you really think that our 70,000 compatriots are just living for food? If the guys above dare to look around, would I dare to put on armor and chop off their heads?"

"Bah~ That's nonsense. We will be doomed if we hold such thoughts like yours. Do you understand the rules? Do you follow the rules?"

The female elf cursed lightly, and along the way, the "braid" passed from the back of her neck to the front, and flexibly found a "connection" on the back of the other person's head;

After searching to no avail, the 'hair braid' drew a circle on his chest quite frivolously when he took it back, and teased again,

"You seem to have no armor to wear. You are still a little guy, right?"

Licking his lips, the investigator, who had just entered the vacation stage and had not tasted meat for a long time, revealed his true nature in a few words,

"Would you like to come to my house? I can lend you my sister's armor~"

"I" the other party felt a little moved, and nodded neatly and agreed, "Call me when you get off the car."

"Hey~ no problem."

The elder elf 'sister', who didn't know how old she was, naturally leaned on her. The new black spider silk stockings between her legs were rubbing against each other. It looked like she was extremely excited.

Some of the other elves or fellow trolls in the same car expressed frustration, "Why didn't you choose me?", while others regretfully thought, "You did it so quickly," but no one accused them of being "indiscreet."

No one made a fuss, and everyone chose to laugh it off in a tacit understanding.

Originally, the conversation could have come to an end here, but the young male didn't know if it was due to the stimulation of hormones, and suddenly he continued the topic he had talked about when he was 'hit on' before, which made the situation a little more complicated.

Change;

Just listen, he muttered in a loud voice,

"Humph, I don't care. If the top dares to act recklessly, then there is no need for the bottom to abide by the rules. At worst, they will no longer need parliament or govern the government. Anyway, we cannot let the pioneer suffer a loss."

"Ah? What do you mean?" Sister Elf moved her body, looked at him with some confusion, and asked doubtfully.

"Isn't there some kind of 'Mammoth King' in the north? Why can't Mr. Pioneer be an 'Elf King' after he has made such great contributions?"

The lust in the female elf's eyes gradually receded, and the internal situation of the races in the northern region flashed through her mind, and then she asked in an incredible tone,

"Did you study in vain? You don't want to be a citizen, but you want to be a slave of the 'King'?"

"What kind of slaves? How can the benevolent Speaker of the Parliament regard us as slaves? And without the constraints of others, won't we become stronger and faster under his leadership?"

"You! Damn it. What nonsense are they teaching in school!"

Not only did this 'prey' that I had been looking for for three days no longer smell good, but it also smelled a bit. The elf sister had lost all interest. She stopped staying and jumped out of the car angrily from the window.

"Ah? Not going to your house?" The male elf was full of surprise and shouted outside in confusion;

"Go and study, you idiot!"

~~~~~~

At almost the same moment, there was also a conversation going on in the tree house between Nesta and Azshara.

"Have you really made up your mind?"

"Yes, I have made up my mind."

"but."

"I know your worries. That conversation more than ten years ago has always been in my mind."

"Then why does it have to come to this step? Aren't you worried? You said before that you would only withdraw from the front line, but you would still stay at the decision-making level, so I didn't object. Now you tell me that you want to completely delegate power?"

"Dear, please listen to my explanation~"

"Okay, I'll wait for your explanation!"

Azshara folded her arms across her chest, squeezing the ravine deeper, and her rapid breathing caused by anger made her tremble slightly.

"First, as you said, 'Strength is the cornerstone of a foothold.' It is indeed time for me to retreat;"

"Have you never been closed before? Is it necessary to retreat so completely?"

"It's different. I can feel that this time may be a bit long, and it may not be as intermittent as before. External things may not be able to take into account such a situation, even if it occupies the rest of the core except the Speaker.

The location is irresponsible."

"Okay, what else?"

Seeing that her partner's mood had calmed down a bit, Nesta took her into her arms, kissed the corners of his eyes and whispered,

"Secondly, the Republic is not a dictatorship, otherwise I would never dare to make the decision to 'step down' so easily. The person in power who comes to power after I step down will not be able to monopolize power. All his actions will be carried out under checks and balances; so as long as he keeps a low profile

If so, then there will be no unavoidable conflict between me and him or them.”

"Otherwise, even if the next person in power is my son, I wouldn't dare to let him go so easily. After all, power corrupts the heart."

"Thirdly, the Republic is indeed my life's work, but I regard it as a friend and as a home, not as my private property. I cannot do it for my own selfish desires when I know that I cannot do it.

Holding the position and not letting it go, and"

Seeing her partner's hesitant expression, Azshara, who was already somewhat convinced, looked up at him and asked,

"And what?"

"And something's not right with the recent situation."

"What's wrong?"

"Part of the pressure brought by the Mammoths this time has turned into dissatisfaction with the system. Some young guys even hope that I can become the king; there are more compatriots, although I have not seen them, they also have such thoughts, but they

Worship me too much, rely on me too much"

"You feel uneasy?"

"Yes, I think this is terrible."

"Why, isn't this good? The trust of citizens is the best shield. Although you can use it to look after the Republic forever, since it is your 'hard work', carry it step by step with your own hands and lead the citizens to become stronger.

Isn’t going down what you want?”

"No, Azshara, this is different. Of course I hope so, but for a healthy regime, no one should be 'indispensable'. It must be able to survive without any individual.

Even if it goes down, it can still continue to operate healthily.”

"But now, there are vague signs of 'I have to do it' in the hearts of the people. So, this is one of the reasons why I plan to really retire for a while."

"Oh, I understand, but I'm still a little unwilling."

"Why?"

"This is a country you built with your own hands, but you are ready to let it go when it is about to reach glory."

"I'm fine."

"It doesn't matter what the hell. Do you know what a great honor you have to give up? Nesta, are you stupid?!!"

Her voice was a little excited. Her husband's stupid operation made Azshara more and more irritable. She ignored her own modesty and snarled like a toothy puppy in Nesta's arms.

He got angry on his back.

"Ha! Just think of it as the whims of an idealist."

While comforting, Nesta put her index finger into her open mouth. She wiped her canine teeth with her fingertips, stirred up her spiritual tongue, and then she took it in her mouth, opened it again, closed it, and bit down angrily.

.

"Besides, I'm not going to die, nor am I going to go far away. If something unexpected happens, how can I not stand up again? Hiss! Be gentle and lick it clean yourself."

Withdrawing his finger, a small purple blood drop appeared on it, with some traces of saliva remaining;

"Even if I cursed in my heart that I was not living up to expectations, wouldn't I still have to support you and move forward at that time?"

"Suck~ You are stupid!"

"Okay, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, okay?"

"No, you are selfless, but I am not that generous. It should be our honor, then it must be our honor!"

"Um?"

"I have thought about it. If you step down, then I will try to climb up. I will be the speaker of the parliament!"

"this"

"Just agree~ I am in power, and you can practice peace of mind and become the pillar of the country. How good is that? No one in the future can ignore our contribution! Your and my names must become the most dazzling couple in history!"

The way her partner spoke at this time, and the excitement in her eyes that she might not even notice, brought back memories of Nesta's past.

Azshara has never been a happy-go-lucky person. She also longs for honor and has her own ambitions;

Decades ago, when she was very weak, she was a brave man who was extremely confident in the countercurrent 'aesthetic' and dared to go to the monster den to steal cubs for the sake of research;

From then on, whether it was her decisiveness in the first night between the two, her determination when she went north to fight with him, or her common advance and retreat when she crossed the Heihe River west to explore in depth, it can be said that her character has been flamboyant from the very beginning.

And full of ambition;

In addition to the unique appearance, this personality is also the reason why I was attracted to him in the first place.

But over the years, because of her special position as a partner, she has curbed many of her own desires, and almost everything will revolve around Nesta.

At the moment, although half of the 'fireworks' in Azshara's eyes are burning for him, and one-third are burning for 'him and her', as Nesta has decided to quit,

', there is also a small part of it that is completely her own.

Therefore, the 'no' on Nesta's lips could not be said no matter what;

Although she has many noble reasons, it seems that they should not be a rope that binds her. In this case

"Okay, I have no objection. Do what you want to do, fight for what you are willing to fight for, and I will be the most solid support, both for you and for this country."

"Really!? No need to cheat, I just want to get your nod."

"real."

"Ah! Take off your clothes! Let me love you!"
