Chapter 104: I'm not here to listen to the (second) chapter

The actors are in place and perform stage plays with their own scripts.

The tower was the backdrop, and in the layers of guards, Shane stood there, the light wind, like a ribbon wrapped between his fingers. At the end of the meeting, behind him, the guard Salares half-knelt to report on the current situation in Silvermoon City.

Not only do ordinary people like lace news, but political rumors are also the topic of their after-dinner conversation, so they like Shane. The new master not only brings a love story with the rival family Windrunner, but also most likely brings a political earthquake. The civilians of Silvermoon City are expecting him and Sylvanas to stage a political drama of joy and sorrow.

'O our people,' Shaun could only shake his head, 'life is too smooth and boring, and he watches others fall into the water with the mentality of a bystander, while he applauds and gloates on the shore. ‘

'Master'

Well, I know it's not prudent to speak, but seeing the fall of the big guys, the people below can't help but feel a sense of pleasure in their hearts, and everyone has that feeling that the people who are high above have finally fallen, and I was one of them before. Shane was thinking more about the change in status, which brought about a change in thinking patterns: 'Salares, you just think of it as my relaxed behavior before entering the battlefield, please continue'

'Yes, there are rumors of civilians speculating about what position you will get, with the Chief Mayor of Silvermoon and the Grand Prosecutor being the most vocal. ‘

'Anything else?' ‘

'Our people spread the word about your adventures in Kalimdor among the populace, and the response was good, and your pioneering political views were well known to the elves'

'Anything else?' ‘

'There is nothing else to report on, the rest of the council members have already entered, just waiting for you, Master. ‘

'Then let's go,' Sean nodded, and beside him, the clerk Erecia draped him in a sumptuous red cape, his shoulders covered with upward-curving ornaments. The figure will look more burly, but it is just a setting to show the majesty of the commoners.

More than 100 escorts set off, puppets opened the way, ten chocobos pulled carts, and layers of riders guarded the side, everyone dressed up. All spirits. The Council Hall is just as important as the Royal Court, and it is located in the west of the city. Shane's team set off for ten minutes and arrived at the location. After getting out of the carriage, he looked up, and in front of him was the council hall, but he had to climb a hundred steps first.

Countless civilians watching the excitement cheered obligatorily.

'Another elf who has climbed a hundred steps!!' ‘

This moment is a moment of great attention, at least tens of thousands of pairs of eyes are looking at him.

Shane turned back and said, 'Go to the side of the square and wait, I am the only one who can walk the road below'

'Yes,' the followers were thrilled. A hundred steps, all of them watched with reverence as Shane took his first step.

The 100 steps are another name for the elves for the council hall, and the lowest point goes up to the council. A total of one hundred steps need to be climbed. It is a hundred meters wide, paved with the purest color marble, and it only takes a few minutes to walk up slowly, but it is a height that most elves cannot cross in their lifetime.

'Someday I'm going to climb a hundred steps' still has the inspirational voice of his childhood companion in his ears, and today, Shane did it.

As he walked, the cheers behind him rose higher and higher, and the arcanist's senses filtered through the noise. There is no shortage of familiar voices in the ears, and the brethren of the Dawnblade are the loudest. Cheer their second master in.

Walking to the highest place, he turned around and saw that tens of thousands of people below were like ocean waves, boiling up and down, as if they were churning for him.

'It's very confusing, no wonder so many people are obsessed with power,' Shane glanced at. Waving his hand obligantly, he walked into the council hall. The light dimmed, and he was in the same mood: history would not change, and the city would be completely destroyed.

'Shane-Master of the Blade of Dawn, please' The attendant in charge of the reception was the royal family's Spellbreaker Guard, and one of them led Shane into the hall.

It is a circular theater-style design. The middle is the lowest, the edge is the highest, the size is thousands of square meters, and there are only ten seats, arranged in a circle at the height of the perimeter.

'Please go this way' The Spellbreaker attendant led Shane to the only empty seat and sat down,

The king sat due north, one position above the others, and Shane's mentor was to the king's left. The Ranger General was on the right side of the king, and all the masters of Silvermoon City had arrived except for the prince who looked around.

At this moment, the door of the parliament slowly closed, and with a bang, the parliament became an enclosed space. The aura of not being bright permeated the space. You can smell the conspiracy with your nose, and Shane is not without malice.

'The existence of the parliament is to coordinate our internal needs and guide the direction of national development, so let's talk about the work of the first half of the year. The king presided over the meeting, and he read the manuscript like a scholar, and called him by a dull name: 'Master Seigor, please tell me about the work of the government.' ‘

Saignol Sunwing, Seven Rings, major in the School of Change, Chief Administrative Officer, and a mage with a round face.

He talked about Quel'Salas in every detail. Shane heard that the position was the elven butler, and after becoming a god, he had no time to do anything, and he used up all his energy to concentrate on taking care of the people's lives, and sure enough, Seigor finally said that he lacked energy.

It seems that the city is becoming more and more prosperous under Seigno's control. Your request will be made later, and we will hear the other king' after the king finished calling Shane's mentor.

'Everyone in the Royal Mages Guild has a lot to do and needs more helpers. After the teacher finished speaking, he stopped talking. He is the head of the Royal Mage Guild, responsible for all of Quel'Salas' mage training and all things arcane. Sean asked for help from the association when he was low, and it was not for nothing that it was easy to pass.

The third speaker was Greenville-Morning Stalker Seven Rings, majoring in the School of Plastic Energy and managing financial expenditures, and his forehead was about to burn, which was said to be caused by his spells being out of control. He reported on some items of expenditure, financial balances, and said nothing else.

Tax Collector Jayne Lini - Star of Dawn, Seven Rings, majoring in the School of Enchantment, introduced a few sentences accordingly without saying anything specific.

'They're thinking I'm going to talk about what I'm going to do,' Shane figured out what the council was going to do.

When they were all done, they asked Sean to pick a position. But before Shane could speak, Saigor Sunwing spoke first, "I would like to ask Shane - Master of the Dawnblade to come and help me as the second administrative officer. ‘

'Wait, I want Master Shane to be my second tax officer,' said Jayne Rini-Dawnstar with a smile.

'You all want a helper, and I want it too,' Greenville-Morningwalker followed, also laughing: 'I'm waiting for the position of Minor Treasurer. ‘

Shane realizes that he is also wrong. The council didn't want to give him a glimmer of power, and he was given three deputy positions to choose from, 'being underestimated!' What happens if you flip the table at this time. After thinking about it, he found that he didn't even have the feeling of anger, and for the first time in public office, the deputy position was indeed the most suitable. Speak reasonably, use a dignified and upright scheme, but what is the deputy position, he knows very well, not only is he a subordinate to his colleagues in the council, but also has the final say on them, and he can't stand the suppression and resign to go is another blow to his prestige.

Into their rhythm? Never! Thinking of this, he smiled and did not speak.

Silence, silence. No one spoke in the council hall, and several people smiled awkwardly, then completely retracted.

'Shane-Master of the Dawn Blade, we don't despise you, the deputy position is a kind of exercise, and when you are familiar with government affairs, it is not too late to take up the main job, after all, you have no experience in public office. There was silence for two minutes. Another master broke the silence, Bridges - Eclipse. The Seven Rings major in plastic energy, the master who manages the legal affairs of Quel'Thalas: 'The administrative officer is the most capable position to train people, and Master Shane's grade will sooner or later reach the left hand side of His Majesty the King, but he is impatient to get a high position, and Master Oakes is rude. ‘

'It's okay, you're telling the truth. 'The mentor is cunning. Sean couldn't see what he was thinking.

'Master Oakes has no objection, and I propose that a vote be opened to elect Master Shane-Dawnblade as the Second Governor temporarily. ‘

Shane didn't speak, and as soon as he said yes or no, he would fall into their no-talk. Change the trap, and in the end, 'This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what kind of challenge do you want?'

If the Scourge Legion did not destroy Silvermoon City more than twenty years later, he would have gained power step by step, using it as a tool to do what he wanted. But it's too slow, the pace of the transfer of elven power is too slow, and after twenty years, he is just one of the few people who are doing it, and his voice is not high. It takes a stepping stone to establish a weighty voice in the parliament, but one by one they refuse to jump out, and they must catch a target and come out to fight.

The votes went one by one, and they didn't even ask Shane's wishes, 'It's underestimated!' He kept tapping his fingers on the table.

The prince did not abstain voluntarily, and the king did not participate in the vote, but was only responsible for the posthumous recognition, and when he came to Shane, he voted 2 to 5.

'Master Shane, please vote. ‘

……

'Master Shane, please vote. Someone called it twice.

'It doesn't matter if I vote or not, who calls you to be in the majority?' Shane thought for a moment and said, 'Haven't you thought about what if I don't agree?' ‘

'Isn't it normal for a newcomer to the council to work under the guidance of a senior?' ‘

Shane saw that the man was the chief administrative officer of Señol-Sunwing, and he smiled.

'Maestro Seigno, you are right, but I am not here to sit in on the council, but as a minority, I am here to do what a minority should do. My next remarks are not directed at you, but to all of you who are doing it...... It is the wrong path of development. ‘

Shane used a safe word: 'It has never occurred to anyone here to look beyond Quel'Thalas, our neighbors, and the history of human development must be well understood. In 3,000 years, it has grown from the country of Arathi to many countries that occupy vast lands from Lordaeron in the north to Stormwind in the south. And we have landed for 6,900 years, and the land has not increased in the slightest, and we can no longer see any other place except our own shadow, don't all of you here have a little responsibility? ‘

Are you saying we're short-sighted? Saigniol said.

You just let me tell the truth. ‘

'You're so rude'

Sean narrowed his eyes and glanced at him, his spirit retracted in a collision, he had a slight upper hand, and a trace of sweat flowed from Seigno's forehead.

'I originally just wanted to be quiet, because my arcane path didn't come to an end, and I didn't want to get involved in politics too early, but you always wanted to get me out of the water. Master Seigno, you have not made the slightest progress in the three hundred years since you became a big man, and it seems to me that nothing has been achieved in the management of the municipal government, which has only cultivated the people who are fond of leisure and hard work, and has not guided the people to be spiritually positive, and has not even established the necessary moral standards, only to spread pleasure and depravity. The problem of population fertility is also due to your mistakes. Just like the use of arcane art requires moderation, an indulgent life is not only detrimental to fertility, but also degrades the quality of the population, haven't you ever noticed? ‘

How did you notice that? ‘

'It's none of your business, in my opinion the status quo of our people. Your incompetence is the greatest responsibility. ‘

'You ......'

Shane narrowed his eyes, and the other party immediately fell silent, and he changed his target to continue fighting.

'Greenville-Master Morningwalker, you manage your finances, do you know what people call you?' Rubber stamp Greenville, your finances are all granted to useless luxury works. Ha! I'm thankful for gilding the dome of each tower, because I have a share, but have you ever thought about spending some money to repair the dirt roads of the Ghost Land, and the people who live there will thank you, and the money has to be used for the real time, why don't you understand? ‘

Greenville's mental thorn, Shane did not hesitate to-for-tat. 'Crack' the ground cracked a crack. The corners of Shane's eyebrows rose, and he wanted to increase the output, but the other party immediately shrank.

'War Five Scum' couldn't help but evaluate it in his heart. Shane was a little disappointed, no one was impulsive to be in a high position, no one was a fool, and he charged into battle for others to see. The masses of the people were also disappointed, and the parliament did not stage the naked combat that they loved to see.

Then. King Anastarian was in charge of the mediation, and his face was very bad: "Master Shane, please state your opinion. We all listened. ‘

'It's time to get into my rhythm,' thought Shane, and then said, 'Your Majesty, and all of you who are doing it, I claim ownership of this sea with my masterly privilege' as he said as he projected the islands off the Eternal Song Forest. 'My current focus is not on Silvermoon City, and I don't want to hold any public office. I hope you will respect my opinion. ‘

King Anastarian suddenly felt very tired, since he was born, he had been raised as a king, leading an aging country, and it was completely impossible to change it. Only by sewing up the loopholes that are out of place can we take care of the balance of interests in all aspects. There is a new generation that does not want to follow a fixed life, and for the sake of the stability of the country, it is necessary to listen to him.

Wellles reported that the next generation of Dawnblade and Windranger would almost certainly come together, thinking about breaking them up rather than how to deal with the situation after the merger. As the king's thoughts, you can't feel free to say to your subjects that he's too tired.

'I don't have a personal opinion, you can vote'

Members of the parliament, voting in silence, two abstentions, three floats against, four votes in favor, passed.

'That sea area is for you, as a member of the council, you can't only have privileges and no obligations, the speech just now is very exciting, and you have to take responsibility for the training of the next generation of mages. 'King Anastarian skillfully uses his power to defend his beloved country: 'Master Oakes, how many mages do we have who are just starting to apprentice. ‘

In the first half of the year, there were 1,500 people. The tutor said sideways.

The High Elves are Arcane affinity, anyone knows one or two small spells, and the number of people who have completed the mage's introductory education is much larger than that of humans.

'How about five hundred?' Leave it to you to cultivate, and I hope their spirit growth meets your expectations, Shane, Dean of the Dawn Blade. ‘

For a while, Shaun, who was too busy to break his feet, realized what political art was, nodded in agreement, and his impression of Anastarian changed greatly, he was a respectable king.

'Master Oakes, please cooperate with your students to do an experimental education. ‘

'Yes, Your Majesty. ‘

This is the first topic, and we'll talk about the rest. King Anastarian struck the table with a mallet, and the council moved on to the second issue.

The meeting lasted five days and five nights, and there was no shortage of quarrels that were fiercer than his attitude. Most of the time, Shane was studying, learning how the leadership governed the country and how the king coordinated the various forces to make realistic policies.

The nine of them decided on the country's development course for the next few years. Diplomacy: Increase trade and maintain political distance. Military: Maintain a front-line army that has completely suppressed Zuaman, with the same establishment of Silvermoon City. Interior: The gratuitous ration will continue to be maintained, and the various departments will remain the status quo. Justice: No change required. Taxes: Reducing taxes on homesteaders, increasing taxes on bulk trade, and so on. Shane's proposal to increase investment in the Hinterland Wanderer's stronghold and strengthen the Brute Hammer alliance was not approved, which made him a little regretful, but it didn't matter.

At the end of the meeting, he walked down a hundred steps, stepping on the snow-white steps was like hitting the keys of a piano, he had no experience, and he didn't know how to play the rhythm, leading a country is the same as mastering the arcane, it is not a simple matter of giving and gaining.

On September 1, 6908 in the year 6908 of the Quel'Salas calendar, Shane Dawnblade officially entered the political arena and made a name for himself among the common people as a newcomer for his bold act of forcefully vetoing the first issue of the council. (To be continued......)
