In the square in front of the Provisional Government of the Wellspring Republic, the Supreme Leader of the Provisional Government, General Tedis Smollett, is under the protection of the bodyguards around him, and in response to Karl's manifesto, he gives a speech to the large masses of liberated Mimatar slave laborers who have gathered here.

"Our only duty is to give freedom to the people. As the years passed, millions of people gave their precious lives for this ideal; Now, the noble cause of liberating the people will be accomplished by our generation.

For long periods of time, our people have been forced into subjugation and have suffered untold suffering and humiliation. The enslavers, disguised by flowery religious rhetoric, are still as vile and shameful as philistines.

If one day, we can stand up and fight back hand in hand with thousands of brothers, then this day has come! Remembering this turning point in history, we will escape the clutches and win freedom! The time is now.

The rise of the nation is today! ”

You should be familiar with this passage. This is the opening speech of Speaker Maratu Shakel at the opening of the Republican Assembly before the Tribal Conference on November 27, YC 107. ”

"Speaker Shakel is a hero to our Mimatar people, who not only brought us freedom and equality, but also brought us back the Stacomani tribe. And he dared to fight against the oppressors who enslaved us, and the Unification Ministry, who turned a blind eye to it! ”

"I think all of you here have heard of such a thing at some point, right? In YC 110, under the leadership of the great Speaker Shackle, the elder fleet of the Republic raided the empire of the oppressors and saved millions of compatriots, this glorious act, right? He asked, looking at the silent crowd in the audience.

"I think I have a little impression...

"I think I've heard of it...

"Are you sure?"

Hearing this, people began to whisper to each other.

"I don't remember very clearly, anyway, I listened to my wife, her aunt's son's daughter-in-law's second uncle's nephew's second uncle's grandson's friend. I heard that millions of compatriots were liberated at that time, and they now eat and drink well on the side of the republic, and every month they are given a new dress! Someone in the crowd said to the people around him.

"yes, I remember my next-door neighbor's mother who was the son of his girlfriend's aunt's niece's boyfriend also said that. Those in the republic are living well! They have meat to eat, they only have to work eight hours a day, and they have two days off a week! Someone else stood up and said.

"What you two say is singing and harmonizing, who knows if it's true or not?" Someone in the crowd immediately questioned them.

"Really? This brother, do you think that after we are independent now, is it much better than when the slave owners oppressed us before? The person who spoke earlier asked.

The man thought for a moment, then nodded hesitantly and said, "It seems... It seems like this! ”

"That's it! General Tedis said that after our independence, everything will be on par with the Republic. What is the new clothes every month, only eight hours a day, meat to eat every day, and days off, etc., etc... As long as we continue to be independent! He said to the person who asked the question.

"If you say that, then we must be independent! How can you have these good days without independence? Independence, must be independent! If you are independent, you will have a good life, don't you say? The man said with a sudden realization.

"Yes, so we are now independent from the evil empire of those oppressors!" The previous man shouted.

"That's right! We want to be independent! We want to be independent! The crowd, which had long been incited by these true and false news, also shouted.

Looking at his excited compatriots in the square, the head of the bodyguard responsible for protecting Tedis hurriedly said to him nervously: "Lord Teddys, you better go back quickly!" There are so many people mixed up here, in case there is an Assassin in the crowd who wants to turn against you ... ”

"Don't be afraid, my friend. The shadows of the darkness will never dare to be exposed to the light, I firmly believe that. No matter how the oppressive slave owners try to kill me, with your help I will be able to save the day. Tedis muttered to him.

The head of the bodyguard saw that he couldn't persuade Teddys, so he sighed and secretly pressed the headset and said to his subordinates: "Everyone pay attention!" Beware of suspicious elements in the crowd and don't let them hurt Lord Teddy! ”

"Yes, sir."

As soon as he finished speaking, a man rushed out of the crowd. He ran towards Tedis with open hands, as if trying to give him a hug.

"Stop! If we don't stop, we'll shoot! The head of the bodyguard and a group of bodyguards drew their guns and pointed at the man as if they were facing a great enemy.

When the man saw a group of black holes with muzzles pointed at him, he was immediately frightened. He hurriedly raised his hands and said to these bodyguards in horror: "Don't... Don't shoot, my lords, I... I'm a good citizen! ”

The head of the bodyguard ignored the man's words, and he shouted to the man: "Hold your head in your hands! Get on the ground! ”

"Okay... Good... The man hurriedly complied.

"You, you, go up and check it out. See if he has any weapons on board! The head of the bodyguard casually ordered two of his own men.

The two bodyguards walked towards the man with bitter faces, constantly complaining in their hearts about how they were so unlucky. You know, if the man in front of him is an assassin who wants to assassinate, the two brothers will be the first to be unlucky.

"Be honest! Don't move! The two men warned as they reached out and searched for suspicious objects on the man's body.

After a few moments, the two men asked the man to get up. They escorted the man to Tedis and said, "My lord, it has been checked." This guy doesn't have anything on him, he's not an assassin. ”

"Assassins? What assassin? Ladies and gentlemen, the little ones just heard that the old men from before have come back, so the little ones dare to ask this big man, is all this true? The little one doesn't mean anything else, but I just think that if it's still the precarious life that I used to have, then it might as well join the army organized by you, the big master. It's just that the little ones don't know if they are qualified or not... This big man, do you see if you can accept the small one? The little ones don't want to live like that anymore! The man looked at Tedis with a wince, and asked with courage and trembling.
