The 'disaster' caused the entire continent to shake.

The capital was reduced to ashes!

Nobody knows what happened or how it happened, but it was a fact, undeniable.

After the initial shock, chaos began to spread.

The Kobi kingdom was an absolute monarchy, with the king, all princes, and all ministers living in Kobi city.

With them all dead, there was no clear leader in the kingdom anymore.

Since the mages were not interfering, many local lords declared themselves the rightful heir to the deceased king and declared others illegitimate.

After all, all the nobles and lords were related to the Kobi dynasty, and with all legitimate successor's death, everyone could feasibly claim to be the next successor.

There was no clear line of succession after princes. Nobody expected them all to die at once together.

This situation had the potential to cause the death of countless people; however, it didn't, thanks to Savior.

Generally, Savior was very limited in his actions in continents where other strong mages existed.

Lee continent, the headquarters of the Humanoids academy, was absolutely one of the strongest, if not the strongest, in the whole world.

Their dean, Lee, was said to be just a hair away from rank 10.

Because of them, Savior had limited influence in Lee continent.

However, after the incident, he began to act much more courageously.

He directly interfered in mortal affairs, imprisoned all the rebelling forces, and appointed a new king.

These actions were genuinely daring, and if it had been any other rank 8 mage, they would have definitely paid the price.

After all, the humanoid academy could do it, and if they had wanted to do it, they would have. Who is this foreign mage who thinks he knows better?

However, Lee ordered her subordinates not to interfere.

One reason was Savior's luck, which was extremely terrifying.

She believes that even if she managed to defeat Savior, her luck would be so damaged that reaching rank 10 would become much more challenging.

The other reason is Rachel.

She clearly warned Lee about Savior, about him also having an incarnation, and the need to avoid war.

For these reasons, she allowed Savior to do what he wanted with mortals.

Anyway, these are only a few mortals. Who cares?

The humanoid academy is responsible for the prevalence of humanoid life, having planted humans and other species on many continents.

But that doesn't mean they were righteous.

They were the kind of evil, occasionally triggering wars to collect humanoid aura for Lee's magic treasure.

Still, they were far better than many and, on balance, considered righteous.

As for Rachel, she didn't care about right and wrong in the Zag-Savior debacle.

She only cared about doing things that benefited the main body.

Before rank 10, Rachel's incarnations are nearly worthless.

She can create as many as she wants using the loophole by getting a powerful host and quickly promoting an incarnation to rank 9 using avatars.

She can have as many rank 9 Rachels as there are rank 9 people.

As for rank and lower, it's much easier.

It's easy to promote tens of thousands of Rachels to rank 8 quickly.

However, each host can only do it once, as the only way to get rid of a host is by killing them.

But for rank 10, the loophole doesn't work, just as the skills of rank 10 cannot be modified.

What Rachel #1 truly pursues is reaching rank 10 and keeping people who have a chance of rank 10.

Lee is one, Zagronan is another, Savior is another.

She encourages love, hope, and these kinds of emotions that encourage her hosts to advance but will not allow them to kill one another.

She stopped Zagronan from killing Savior and will stop Savior from killing Zagronan if he ever has the chance.

Fortunately, he wasn't thinking about these things.

He only was focused on improving the lives of people.

...

Eliot Kemp was a billionaire, the second richest person in the world.

He was not a noble or even a mage, just a very successful businessman.

It may seem impossible, but it was true.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

How did a mortal get so rich in such a short time?

The stock market.

He built his company using purely mortal technology to achieve incredible feats.

In the past, many technologies existed that were lost.

Long-distance information transfer is one.

It existed before, but it was lost during the chaotic period when the Robels Empire broke up.

The knowledge was lost, and the very restrictive laws of the ensuing Kobi kingdoms completely stifled innovation for a very long time.

For something new to be invented, a particular atmosphere is essential.

The Kobi kingdom completely lacked that.

The government controlled everything, with little tolerance for new things.

Nothing new had been invented for a very long time due to this.

Thankfully, the last king of the Kobi kingdom was enlightened; he tore up all regulations and laws and threw them into the fire.

It finally freed up the atmosphere, allowing people to have the drive to think about new products.

Eliot was one of those people. He brought back the old technology and spread it far and wide across the continent.

To share written information, you could use the LDtell system.

For voice messages, one can use LDtalk.

For directly sending an image of a page? LDscan.

His company quickly became so popular that it became the most valuable in the entire continent, perhaps even the world.

Its potential was extremely significant.

He also used the lack of laws to his advantage, buying out all competitors, and if they refused, he would crush them with his immense connections.

With mages not interfering and no laws to prevent it, he created a monopoly in the entire business.

He bribed everyone.

Every minister and Nobel had a share of the profits.

It kept them quiet and allowed Eliot to take hold of the entire kingdom's communications system.

One very essential aspect when creating a monopoly is involving government people and giving a part of the profits to them.

If Eliot were greedy and hadn't done this, they would have stopped him.

But, with him giving them money each month for no work, of course, they defended him.

Mages didn't care because who cares about mortal technology?

It wasn't a threat to them.

...

A man with long green hair, looking sturdy, was sitting on a luxurious wooden chair.

The man was very handsome.

Even Eliot has to admit it.

Eliot, not considered handsome by most people, cleared his throat and began, "Master Savior, all of our businesses strictly follow the laws."

Savior sneered and said, "I know. But that is because there are no laws! As I said, you resign tomorrow!"

Savior hated people like Eliot.

After the incident, Eliot got much richer.

That is because before, he still had to pay some money to the many nobles and ministers, but now, he was free from all influence and much stronger than before.

Savior's quick intervention saved all the infrastructure from getting ruined.

In addition to not having to pay protection money, Elliot also used his insider information to buy shares of many companies, all of which nosedived after what happened.

The stock market is based on Robels City, not Kobi City.

"But, Master Savior, I have done everything possible to help people. Why am I being punished?" He started to plead.

He knew that in today's Kobi kingdom, Savior's words are laws.

"Okay, say, where did you help anyone? You know that as we speak, many people live on the streets due to the chaos?" he said.

Savior stopped enormous casualties, but the incident still caused a lot of disruptions. It will take a few months to fix them.

"I wanted to donate to a charity..."

"Okay, but you didn't. I want your resignation by tomorrow. As for the new chief executive, I will appoint someone. You will keep your shares, but you cannot interfere with the work of the new CEO. You are dismissed."

Eliot gritted his teeth but didn't dare to say more and left.

Savior touched his forehead.

"So much suffering! I can feel their pain in my blood! Rachel, what use am I if I can't save them?" he asked.

Over the years, he had come to see Rachel as a spiritual advisor.

Of course, only his Rachel. As for his father's Rachel, he had no good feelings toward her.

"Of course, you are not strong enough! If you were rank 10, then you could have saved them all!" she said.

Over the years, Rachel understood that Savior was a good person who cared about the weak, so she started talking to him in a way that he would understand.

So what if she disagreed with him? She also disagreed with Zagronan.

As long as he could get stronger, who cares if he spent his life helping others?

Rachel didn't care about good and evil; she cared about results.

"How? My father will always be ahead of me, with his Main protagonist luck," he said.

Rachel thought momentarily and said, "What about you also getting main protagonist luck?" she asked.

"Can you do it?" he asked.

"Maybe. I will look into it," she said.

She plans to talk to Rachel #1 about it.

The reason is not that she pities Savior; it's just that she sees him as very determined in his own way.

With his rivalry with his father, he could quickly turn Protagonist luck into strength.

Savior looked at the painting on the wall and sighed.

It was a picture of him with his father on the ocean.

In the past, those fishing trips were one of his favorite hobbies.

Now, he really missed those.

...

Lee was meditating, as she always did.

Her Rachel had always been rank 8, but a while ago, she suddenly said she could reach rank 9.

So, Lee created an avatar and promoted it to rank 9.

With a rank 9 Rachel, she could reach rank 10 more quickly.

Recently, much sad news has come from the continent.

She was somewhat upset about what had happened.

She still cared a bit about her mortals, so their deaths were sad events.

However, she didn't have the time for that now, so she went into a closed-door meditation, preparing to reach rank 10.

These days, she felt that her fragment law was about to find its last piece and be completed.

...

A few years passed.

The pain caused by the destruction of Kobi City was only genuinely felt by a few.

Of course, that is the situation only if one doesn't consider the great pain of the people who were in the city at that time and died.

Anyway, life continued, and the new king began to gain legitimacy.

The Kobi kingdom was originally ruled by kings with black skin.

But over the years, the kings' lineage changed, and most recent kings have had white skin.

Fortunately for the Kobi kingdom, nobody cared about this; after so many years of integration, everyone has all kinds of bloodlines, with no one being pure.

Still, many people noticed that the new Queen chosen by Savior was from a far-away branch family of the Kobi dynasty, with black skin.

It could be considered a return to roots, of sorts.

Of course, it is likely that after a few generations, marriage with the dominant white population will again change the kings to look white.

Again, fortunately, no one cared.

In this regard, the Kobi Kingdom was fortunate.

Racial tension among humans and interspecies tension between humans and elves, beastmen, etc., were nonexistent.

However, they were not perfect. Women were not allowed to become kings.

But if one looked at history, they would be amazed at how much things had changed.

Just over 50,000 years ago, the situation was the polar opposite, with only female queens and no male kings allowed.

At that time, everyone thought it was normal for men not to be kings.

It was common sense.

And now, common sense is 180 degrees different.

The Savior, of course, was there when it was like that.

He planned to fix it once and for all.

The king or Queen would be chosen directly from everyone with any Kobi dynasty bloodline.

This rule includes most people on the continent, as most have at least some distant ancestor from the Kobi family.

In practice, this means anyone can be king or Queen.

The Savior's test for candidates was only a test of heart to see how much they cared about the people.

Have you helped people? Who have you hurt, and so on?

These questions greatly encourage doing good deeds.

He also made a top ten evil list, on which he would place the worst people in his mind on the list.

He implemented these policies, but he isn't sure if they work.

However, he feels they are better than the alternatives.

He left one clone on this continent and then left.

After all, there are other continents, too, so one cannot focus so much attention here.
