Eye System

Chapter 201: Appointed Leader

Lex seeing that none of them were could speak under the pressure he was causing, using the Dominant Eye, retracted his aura and the Dominant Eye.

"I said continue didn't I" repeated Lex who wanted to see what the continent was planning on doing next.

The Gamma King cleared his throat, then was the first to speak.

"May I ask where is my daughter, me and her mother miss her and would like to speak with her..." said the Gamma King before being interrupted by Lex who became furious.

"Shut your mouth and don't think just because you are a king of this shitty county, you can do as you please. The only reason I didn't kill you on the spot, is because you are her father, otherwise, you had have died already" interrupted Lex angrily.

It was the first time he had gotten to speak with the Gamma King and didn't know what he looked like, but from what he said and the way he carried himself, he could guess that it was the Gamma King.

The hatred that Lex felt towards the Gamma King for the suffering that he had caused Angela in both his past reality and his current reality was immense, but he wasn't going to kill him as he knew that it wasn't his place to do so.

It was obvious to Lex that he was only acting kind and respectful because Angela was in a higher position than him in terms of strength and because she had powerful companions.

The Gamma King was gobsmacked and didn't know how to react as he lowered his head, knowing that in the face of absolute power, there was nothing he could do.

Everybody was scared to speak and Ella sat beside Lex amused by the faces of all of them and by what was going on, as Lex was finally beginning to act like somebody of his power.

After a minute of nobody daring to speak, Lex decided to break the silence and sort everything out himself.

"If nobody wishes to speak and voice the next steps of the continent, I will decide it for you" stated Lex, knowing that nobody would dare to go against him, unless they were seeking death.

"I hereby appoint the Earth Leader as the leader and commander of the entire continent" announced Lex.

The Earth Leader couldn't help but gape in shock along with everyone else who was shocked by Lex's sudden and unexpected decision.

"He is powerful, respected and genuinely cares about the people of the continent and will help its growth and development. There needs to be a leader on the continent, otherwise, there won't be any growth and you will all be too busy fighting amongst yourselves for power and resources. I think he is the perfect candidate, and if anybody has any objections, speak now" stated Lex.

Nobody dared to object Lex's decision, but it didn't sit well with most of them and even the Earth leader felt as though it wasn't the right decision.

He wasn't the strongest on the continent, wasn't the most intelligent and definitely wasn't the most skilled, but Lex was right when he said that he cared about the continent and its people and from how respected he was by his people, he was a suitable leader.

"Even though you are more powerful than us, it doesn't mean you can do as you please and make such wild decisions" objected the leader of one of the large countries while stuttering.

It was obvious that he was afraid of Lex, yet he wasn't willing to lose everything that he had gained to the Earth Leader who was weaker than him, just because a random person had made it that way.

"Ha, it seems there is an objection" laughed Lex as he suddenly appeared behind the man the leader that objected.

"So may I ask, who you are?" asked Lex from behind the man.

The leader couldn't help but visibly shake after Lex had instantly appeared behind him, but seeing that he wasn't killed yet, as long as he complied with Lex, he would have a chance at keeping his life.

"I am the king of the Rona Country" answered the man while stuttering, still struggling to speak clearly under the pressure of Lex's presence.

"Is that so?" said Lex as he grabbed the Rona King's collar and lifted him up into the air.

"Wasn't your country destroyed, how dare you show your face here" bellowed Lex as he threw the Rona King at the wall, causing the entire building to shake and for him to be imbedded in the wall that was formed out of an extremely durable material.

Blurting out a curdle of blood, the Rona King began to weep in fear as the young boy approached him with murderous intent in his eyes.

"If you keep going around and killing all of them, there won't be anyone left on the continent to protect it," said the Earth Leader, who thought that Lex was starting to getting carried away and wanted to stop him before he went too far.

"Alright, I won't kill anybody else" stated Lex, seemingly submitting to the Earth Leader, which shocked everyone in the room.

The Rona King let out a sigh of relief as it seemed as though Lex had calmed down and no longer had the intention to kill him, however, his heart slumped after hearing Lex's next words.

"Apart from him" added Lex as he formed a red flame within his hand and flung it at the Rona King, burning him alive as he howled in pain and was burnt into a crisp.

It seemed as though Lex was a crazy murderer that was going to kill all of them for the smallest of reasons, but he knew how despicable people were, especially cultivators who would only care about their own strength and survival as a pose to the greater good.

"As I have been appointed the leader of the continent by Lex, I am planning on accepting that role. However, I am planning on leaving the layout of the continent as it is" announced the Earth Leader.
