Number One Dungeon Supplier

"We have a lot of things to take care of. For today and tomorrow, we rest. Gara, I do not know how you wish to address this but take it that they had died valiantly in battle when a dungeon portal popped up. Do the necessary arrangement." Jin said and Gara got his meaning.

There was a need to have 'a little' cover-up even though it would be pretty apparent when eventually the news got out so Jin decided to get them to give them a proper send off. It was also the least he could give them considering he had used them as a stepping stone to get the kingdom moving.

"Acknowledged," Gara said to Jin and within hours, more mages like Linus came into the picture and started to control the flow of information, especially with those in the audience. The people who had witnessed this had dubbed it the Discarded King's Red Banquet for he had annihilated the majority of the proponents that can go against him and will go against him.

And those that did have paid the price in blood.

Even without the loyalty clause that Jin had with the System, he believed that his actions were more than enough to show what kind of person he was and rumours would no doubt fly around. So for the next two days, he let his past actions to speak of him and people were starting to notice that this was not an ordinary king that the Kingdom of Ress had summoned.

In the meantime, Jin kept to himself studying the Mechanical Elephantman in the interest of how to improve it or how best he could do it in the future. And while he was at it, he also studied a few other topics at hand to the best of his abilities to better understand this particular world which they had called Atopia while Gara settled the demise of the ministers and their lackeys.

(Jin did thank the System for allowing him to read the stuff translated.)

At first, the minsters' families wanted to seek revenge since they were all in power but somehow the mages under Gara were able to keep them under control as a new decree from the ministers as a whole had swiftly emerged, citing that the new king had power over their ministries as well as the affairs of the Kingdom.

Jin was genuinely surprised that the ministers that had attended the Red Banquet understood the underlying meaning when Linus had depicted them as a bunch of fools, especially under the control of the War Minister.

He was no longer seen just as a puppet which was a shocker to the kingdom to hear especially when they had been changing Kings as if the kingdom was changing their diapers. Everyone had no idea what to expect from this new King but it did not take much brain power and deduction to know that the demise of the ministers and the emergence of the king's new ability to lead the country was interlinked.

It also did not take long for missives from various royal messengers to come in from other countries to greet the new king and Jin took that opportunity to drive his objective.

To his surprise, they agreed very willingly, and not a single hour in, every single one of the kingdoms that had been affected by this 'war' status took part in this magical 'zoom' conference right in the throne room where he killed the ministers.

Jin did not expect them to act so fast and had his suspicion that the Kingdom of Ress had something unique that the others did not have, which caused the War Minister to declare War on others, and yet the other countries and kingdoms did not dare to invade.

He was missing vital information and there was no one around at that point of time when he was about to do the magic conference that was held right in the throne room.

However, Jin did find it a little creepy how this tele conference was conducted. It was basically something similar to a remote body possession where the royal messengers sent the message back via magic and they all got possessed by the consciousness of the kings and queens who were ruling the kingdoms to be in the same meeting room as Jin.

"Greetings and congratulations are in order to the New King of Ress. I am from the kingdom of -" Before the person could finish, Jin stopped him.

"I am sorry, I am not too fancy about the royal etiquette and your messengers had already defined themselves which kingdom they are representing. At the same time, I also could not catch the names of your kingdoms so please apologise if I messed up. However, let's get cut straight to the chase. There is a lot of housekeeping I need to do before I can properly attend to foreign relations.

I would need some time before we can do proper negotiations." Jin declared and without giving them any time to speak, he told him about his negotiations.

"I have noted that we are currently at War due to the selfishness of my War Minister who is now dead. I might have done something wrong killing him without asking why he did it but no matter, to have a War status with all my neighbouring countries was something I would not like to have as well either. So, I am putting out an official olive branch to offer peace to all of you."

"Are you willing to have reparations prepared along with the olive branch?" One of the Kings asked and Jin sighed.

"No, I do not and will not prepare any reparations or compensations. Let's make it a mutual understanding that we just wanted peace. Or at the very least, a ceasefire."

"I am afraid without any reparations, I am unwilling to change this war status. Since your kingdom had started the War, we need to negotiate for certain compensation as your previous War Minister had greatly hurt us in his dealings. I understand it is not your fault since we know from the beginning of time that your Kings change consistently and you are not in the known."

"Huh, so they know about this summoning procedure...Is this the unique thing that the Kingdom of Ress has?" Jin thought to himself and shook his head. This negotiations might be more troublesome than he thought but with incomplete information at hand, there was nothing much he could do either than to cope. ṟãNöβĚS̈
