In Ark Simulator, why do I always start out as a ruthless person?.

"After Emperor Ursus died of a serious illness, his son inherited the throne and carried out a series of reforms, all of which were aimed at curbing the power of the military and focusing on domestic construction."

"To this end, he specially promoted a large number of young and strong new nobles to fight against the old nobles with military merits, and the conflict between the two factions increased sharply."

"For this reason, an army-level rebellion even broke out within Ursus, and the rebellion lasted for three years."

"This great rebellion has severely damaged Ursus's vitality. The rebel army was even exiled to the border. Even the troops stationed at the border of Casimir returned home for garrison."

"Plus, after Ursus lost the war bonus, its economy became so bad that it was a bit humorous..."

"Mr. Fremont, do you think that Ursus still has the energy to interfere with Leitania's actions?"

With just a few simple words, the possibility of interference from the two military powers on the Terra continent was greatly reduced, and the current situation of the two countries, which were plagued by internal and external troubles and strong on the outside but weak on the inside, was clearly pointed out.

This time, when it comes to the analysis of the current situation between the two countries, even an old troll like Fremont had no words to refute Chen Qi.

As a professional troll, Fremont knows very well that if he doesn't have an advantage on a topic, he should change the topic.

"Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick? Haha, I quite like this phrase. According to what you said, there is really nothing to worry about between the two military powers in this land."

Flemont stroked his beard, suppressed the appreciative smile on the corner of his mouth, and then blew his beard and stared at him and asked again:

"But, boy, don't forget that although Victoria and Ursus are both talented, Leitania also has the same worries you just mentioned."

"The number of Leitanian Electors is not much less than that of Victoria's Dukes."

"Why do you think that as long as you become the Emperor of Leithania, these electors will listen to you?"

"This is something that even Herhunzollon and the two Sheep Queens can't do."

“——It’s very simple.”

However, just when Fremont thought that his question could make Chen Qi give up, Chen Qi gave the answer to the question with a slight smile.

"Because I will clear away all obstacles that are unwilling to obey me during my rise to power."

silence.

For a moment, one could even hear the heartbeats and breathing of the two people in the room.

After a long while, Flemont, who had somehow restrained all his expressions, asked calmly:

"...Do you want to be like that guy Helhunzollen? Establish a one-man dictatorship?"

The answer given by Chen Qi made Fremont, a hundreds-year-old lich, shudder, and reminded him of his old friend...how he looked when he was being devoured by madness.

At that time, the Witch King had already explored a corner of the edge of this world.

He realized that a huge crisis that could threaten Terra was about to come, and he no longer had time to waste his energy on so-called state affairs and people's livelihood.

He used the most direct, effective and brutal methods to treat them and put in countless efforts, which led to the present-day Leitania.

The electors dared not speak out in the face of the Witch King's terrifying god-like power.

At that time, if Flemont had not defected, he would have taught the Electors the technology and knowledge to create twin queens.

The Witch King's brutal rule is probably still ravaging the country to this day.

And now, it seems that there is another person who has inherited the will of his old friend when he was crazy.

And he seemed even more terrifying. He was not in madness or mania. He made such a crazy decision with absolute rationality.

This alerted Fremont.

Although he remained calm on the surface, his Originium skills were already quietly working.

The shadow behind Fremont began to gradually lengthen, extending out of the window. Unconsciously, the sunlight coming in from the outside began to dim, as if there was some barrier covering the tall tower.

Fremont had already made up his mind.

Even if Qi in front of him was beating around the bush with him, the meaning of his words was that he wanted to rule Leitania with his own will.

I used magic to "exile" him into the dark abyss, and his ambition was extinguished!

"...Perhaps, judging from the results, if I succeed, then in my reign, I will have absolute power, and no one will be able to disobey my orders."

"But, after my death, what I will leave to Leitania will be a healthier and more stable regime."

"……Um?"

However, Chen Qi's unexpectedly honest words made Fremont, who had prepared well for reading comprehension, a little confused.

No? You just admit it like that? I've been laying the groundwork for a long time.

However, Chen Qi's words about a "healthy and stable regime" did arouse his curiosity.

"Boy, are you saying that the political system left by Herhunzollon is not stable enough?"

"...To be honest, Mr. Fremont, in my eyes, Leitania's political structure is very deformed and distorted, and is full of unstable factors everywhere."

With Fremont's signal, Chen Qi felt more confident and bold to say these words, which he had been holding in his heart for a long time.

"You always say that the Witch King is cruel, but in my opinion, as an emperor, his temper seems to be a little too good."

"As an emperor who possesses power beyond all others, he actually allowed nine electors who could threaten his rule and delay his decrees to continue to exist?"

"Should we say that it's fortunate that the Twin Queens replaced the Witch King?"

"Otherwise, from the moment the Witch King falls, Leithania will soon become like Victoria, where the eight dukes were divided."

"A country can have democratic elections, dictatorships, discussions, disputes and even disagreements, but it is absolutely not allowed for someone to hold the power to split the country!"

"Such a political system is doomed to be unstable and full of unrest."

"An unstable and divided country is the cruelest hell for its citizens!"

"This will cause citizens of a country that was once part of a nation to gradually lose their sense of identity with their own country."

"If this continues, brothers and sisters who were originally from the same country will even turn swords against each other and kill each other because of division!"

"This is a real disaster for a country!"

"And I will never allow Leitania to become like Victoria and Ursus, heading towards division, confrontation, or even civil unrest in the future."

"For this, dictators, tyrants, and warmongers are all fine!"

"Even if I have to bear all the blame, I will still do this."

"I will rebuild a new Leitania, a stable regime that can be passed down smoothly and for a long time."

Perhaps the people in Terra, a world where people are feeling their way forward, will not have any profound experience with Chen Qi's words.

But Chen Qike, who has read history, knows too well how great a disaster a divided country will bring.

Only heroes would expect to achieve success and fame in troubled times, but Chen Qi always cares about the common people who place all their infinite expectations on him.

They believe in themselves and can bring them a better era.

He absolutely cannot let them down.

"Perhaps in the future, the emperor who rules Leithania will no longer be like the Witch King and the Twin Queens, who rely on absolute strength to suppress all disobedient forces."

"But, if everything in this country depends on a powerful man who is as powerful as a god."

"Then when this strong man falls, the final outcome for this fragile country will be its disintegration."

"To unite the wills of millions of mortals and surpass the achievements of gods - only when such a cohesive force can be mobilized at any time can a country truly last long."

“And that’s what I’m doing now.”

Chen Qi turned his gaze again to Fremont, who was now deep in thought and no longer speaking.

At this time, he was already talking nonstop, and he also expressed his determination to this old friend of the Witch King.

"I am gathering all the strength that Leitania can gather. As long as all of us can work together, the power we can unleash will be unimaginable in the past when Leitania was independent."

"I also know that my hands will never be clean on this journey. They will be stained with blood and full of sins."

"…But I will never regret it, and I will never look back."

"Mr. Fremont, if you think I am wrong, you can kill me at any time here."

"But if you want to witness the rise of a new country and the success of a new political system, please wait and see."

"...I think this might be the answer that the Sarkaz are eager to know now, isn't it?"

The Sarkaz clan wants to know the answer.

Fremont had to admit that Chen Qi's words were enough to hit the most urgent wishes in the heart of any Sarkaz.

Although the Lich clan, under his leadership, had left the destroyed Kazdel and settled in the then unbuilt Leithania.

But this does not mean that Fremont has forgotten Kazdel and does not care about anything about the Sarkaz people.

The Sarkaz, a tribe that once ruled this land countless years ago but has now fallen into the status of a "rootless tribe".

They have no hometown and no place to stand. They can only drift around the earth like rootless grass.

They left simply because Kazdel at that time was no longer able to protect the "knowledge" of the lich clan.

They need to place this "knowledge" in a safe and stable country until Kazdel is rebuilt.

Only then will their "knowledge" be passed on.

This knowledge will be of great help to the reconstruction of Kazdel and the revival of the Sarkaz clan in the future.

And now, the revival of the Sarkaz clan seems to have finally seen a little hope.

Theresa and Theresis, this brother and sister let everyone in the Sarkaz see the hope of rebuilding their homeland.

But all the Sarkaz knew that the brother and sister had conflicting ideas, and neither of them could convince the other.

Theresa advocates development, tolerance and peace.

Teresis advocates revenge, war and survival.

It seems that everyone of them is right, but it also seems that no one of them is completely right.

This pair of siblings, who have different ideas but both have great ambitions, have become increasingly conflicted under the silent attention of the old lich Fremont...

Flemont understood that Qi was right.

A country needs everyone to be united and implement a governing philosophy. There must be no tendency towards division or even civil war.

Who is right? Fremont, a Sarkaz, is also looking for the answer.

And now, he seems to have found the best practitioner.

Is his philosophy correct?

Is everything he implemented what the Sarkaz need?

Frémont wondered.

"You boastful, sharp-tongued brat, you dare to speak so brazenly in front of an old senior like me."

"Do you know that even Helhunzollon has to be polite in front of me? Why are you here to give me a lecture?"

Fremont pretended to be amused by being angry, but his eyes were filled with uncontrollable curiosity and admiration as he looked at Chen Qi.

"Those two boastful sheep and gloomy sheep said that you are definitely not the offspring of Herhunzollon. I was a little skeptical at first, but now I believe it!"

"You, kid, are definitely not the kind of child that Helhunzollon could have produced!"

"Even if he lives to death, he will never be as determined as you!"

"Haha! If that old guy really had a son like you, he would be so happy that he would play a few more songs!"

At this moment, the old lich also made his own decision.

He rebelled.

Just like he betrayed the mad Witch King and helped the electors create the Gemini Queens, he is now going to betray the Gemini Queens.

But Frémont felt no guilt about it.

Herhunzollon's cruelty and stupidity forced him to kill his once best friend for the sake of the survival of the lich clan.

This time, for the sake of the Sarkaz clan's survival, he had to rebel against the twin queens, who did a good job but were far worse than he had expected.

"Qi. This is your name now, right?" Fremont called Chen Qi's name for the first time. His tone was as vulgar and straightforward as ever, but with a bit more appreciation.

"Since you want to prove that your path is right, then let me see how you can defeat those two sheep without the help of an old lich like me."

"This is a more difficult path to the top than Herhunzollon."

"If you can succeed, I will spare no effort to help you build a new Leitania, just like I did for Helhunzollon."

"I want to see whether you will be remembered in history or fall to pieces!"
