Eden closed his eyes and rested his head on his arm that was supported by the armrest on the chair. I sat there while looking at the retainers by his side who were writing way too much…
'Hmm, what are they doing?' I asked myself as I tried to probe further before Eden opened his eyes and smiled before speaking seriously "Anima, I want my people to have a part in the game management, internet connection too and the highest authority on both"
I slapped the table and stood up in anger "No! The access can only be me and Anima, I won't allow anyone else!"
Eden smiled as he didn't care about my answer, a deadly aura hit me hard before forcing me to sit down.
『Your Majesty, I can allow only you to have the highest access-』
"My people also" Eden smiled as he looked at me.
I couldn't hide the rage from my eyes as the veins popped up and my skin turned red before I began to transform. The upper mask on my face cracked but didn't fall apart as a smile began to form on my face.
My voice cracking in rage but the smile still on it, "Eden, don't fuck around me!" the chair broke under me, but my sitting position didn't fall apart, the retainers around Eden stood up and took out their weapons.
"Enough!" Eden waved his hand to remove all of the pressure and silence the retainers, "I am not that crazy to hurt you Ace… I will allow the highest access to be only for me"
"Your majesty!" Retainer #1 said as he looked fiercely at me before his face changed into shock as he saw a figure flying behind me, "I apologize for my rudeness" He bowed before taking a seat.
I stood there with my smile as both of my hands were on my cane, "Your majesty, I apologise for my rudeness", raising my cane I hit the ground once and another chair was formed behind me before taking a seat and dismissing the ghostly figure that was behind me.
'Hmph, I could have slaughtered them' The Joker said as he went inside my body. 'Hehe' laughter voices began to appear in my head but I ignored it as if it is nothing special anymore.
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
『We can sign this here, regarding the other factions, they will gain controlled access to their factions』
Eden nodded and took out a purple paper before placing it on the table and signing it, he then sent it to me via his retainer, and I pulled up my sleeve before taking out a paper out of nowhere and drawing a small smiley face on the paper.
The retainer was shocked as he saw me do that but he brought it back to Eden who looked at the smiley face with his stiff smile. "Ace… sigh, I bet your father would be proud of you" He stood up and walked to the door.
I stood up and watched him leave while keeping my transformation on and sleeve high as the muscles on my arm had veins on every part of it. After Eden disappeared with his retainers, I released a black smoke out of my mouth and slowly but eventually my appearance returned to normal.
『Thank you, I owe you this one.』
I ignored Anima as I moved upstairs to talk to my mother who was crying on Emma shoulder as she hugged her. "Mother" I entered the room just to find Mother jump to me before hugging me and crying hard.
I sighed as I began to calm her down, I looked at Emma, and she nodded before preparing some tea to drink.

"Your Majesty, we could have forced him to give us what he has!" Retainer #3 said in anger, the rest of the retainers agreed except the first one.
Eden looked towards the first retainer and smiled "Why don't you tell them what that thing was?" Eden finished his words and kept walking through space.
The first retainer face paled as he looked at the rest "If we moved, we would have lost our lives, t-that monster is back"
Eden nodded and continued smiling "If you think you can kill that man, you are mistaken… his father used to be a monster until he entered that place, his son on the other hand… is beyond monster for gaining that role, in the future do not mess with him because no one is capable of truly killing him"
All of the retainers looked shocked at the revelation except the first and the second as they already knew about it, the third looked unconvinced and asked "What about that signature of his?! Sorry your majesty but he is disrespecting you!"
Eden shook his head, "That is no smiley face, that is a rune filled with unmeasurable numbers… I can only say that it is very dangerous but how can a man who just transcended to have this type of power is what I puzzles me"
----------
"Mother, rest for a bit and then we talk, I will go and inform the others of some tasks" I smiled as I left the tavern before walking slowly towards a tower.
Placing my hands on the tower, my cane hit the ground thrice, and the tower began to shake as it slowly increased in height before reaching the skies and beyond.
The smile on my face began to stiffen as I let go of the tower. I nodded at the result and walked to the basement, opening the doors, I saw all of the systems working hard and some exercising their skills in the combat section by fighting each other.
"Change of Plans" I said as I moved in the basement towards the small globe. Everyone stopped whatever they were doing and moved to surround the globe, I looked at everyone and nodded before hitting my cane once and 9 orbs appeared behind my before forming a circle and spinning.
"Isolate, migrate and dissolve" I chanted as my cane hit the ground again before all of us disappeared from the basement.
Time flow began to slow as time stopped before I was able to open my eyes and see myself in a large circus tent filled with four figures excluding the systems. Everything that filled the basement began to appear one by one creating a unique environment inside the tent before the lights flickered twice in the tent and everything returned to normal.
"Welcome to your new base of operations, I expect Jack to introduce you to everything inside of this place, and earth production will be stopped and moved into the area outside the tent.
Jack who had a tall mustache and a long beard wearing a suit smiled and bowed before speaking "Welcome, my name is Jack, the thief… and this is the trickster humble palace!"
The other three figures looked annoyed before looking at me and nodding. "Leave everything to me, I will deal with gathering the production machines and sending them here" A young man that had a crown on his head said as he smiled while holding his jeweled staff.
