Chapter 214: Proposal

"How do you want to do that?" asked one of his subordinates who was in charge of communications and the distribution and sharing of information.

"I plan to virtually meet all the influential figures at once and get them to accept me as their leader before announcing it publically to the entire continent. I will be leaving the communications to you and I want the people to be able to voice their opinions, but I also want you to try to show them through the different sources that I am worthy of the position" answered the Earth Leader.

"All of you have important roles within the country and I hoping that you can support me on the next step of my life where I can finally take the responsibility and leadership of the continent to be able to fulfil my dreams and leave behind my legacy. All I want is to improve the continent and make sure that everyone is happy and has their own opportunities"

All his subordinates stood up and respectfully bowed to the Earth Leader before all saying in unison, "We will support you all the way and you are more than worthy of being the continent's leader".

With that, the Earth Leader set his plans into motion and instructed them all to prepare a live broadcast to the entire continent and to prepare for any backlash or issues that might come with him trying to gain leadership of the continent.

While they prepared themselves, the Earth Leader had time to get into contact with the leaders of the rest of the countries that although had become cooperative, were still not completely trustworthy and were only doing so because they were scared of Lex.

The Earth Leader wasn't looking for conflict and the continent had already suffered enough death, pain and destruction. All he wanted was for them to cooperate and they would all keep their positions, but they must agree to submit to the Earth Leader and work with him for the greater good of the continent.

It was also to show them that even if Lex wasn't there and wasn't supporting him, he should be the leader of the continent for the growth, development and protection of the continent.

Connecting them all to a holographic call where all the leaders of all the countries could see and hear each other despite being hundreds of miles apart.

"What have you called us all here today?" asked the Gamma King who was the first to speak.

"I have an announcement that I want to make that will change the continent as a whole and I have a proposition for you all" answered the earth leader calmly.

The Gamma King was still quite an arrogant and selfish individual, but he had been humbled after seeing how powerful his daughter had become and how powerful her friends were despite the abusive and cold way that he treated her.

After that, he had become slightly warier of how he treated others, not because he cared, but because he didn't want to offend someone that in the future could influence his fate, but his attitude hadn't changed much.

"My first announcement is that I have surpassed the Heaven Mortal Cultivation Level and have become the first on the continent to do so. Although this makes me the strongest on the continent, I don't care about that and am not looking for conflict. However, what I am here for today is a leadership role that allows me to ensure that the entire continent is functioning well and to make sure that you leaders don't abuse your power" revealed the Earth Leader confidently.

Lex had put his trust in him and he didn't want to let Lex, himself, the continent and his daughter who was watching him from above, down.

"What do you mean to say that we should all submit to you? How do we know that you even broke through and even if you did, it doesn't mean that we can't take you down" said the Gamma King, who had become slightly annoyed and angry.

"If you want proof, you can try and fight me yourself, but I am not looking for a fight. I am looking to better the continent and help the people, but if you want conflict, I won't shy away from it and even without Lex's help, I can easily crush you" refuted the Earth Leader who knew that he had to show his authority if he wanted to be respected as their leader.

The Gamma King didn't know how to answer and couldn't help but feel intimidated by the Earth Leader who clearly looked younger and was most likely due to a breakthrough.

"You will keep your positions, power and everything that you have. All I want is to oversee your leadership and control over your countries. If you go against the rules that I have set and if you act against the benefit of the continent, then I will have no choice but to reprimand you or remove you from your position, but if you cooperate and work towards a better continent, then we will all be happy" stated the Earth Leader.

"Even if our power surpasses mine eventually, I won't lose my position as the continent's leader and overseer and that is because of my love for the people. My proposition will only benefit you and the people as your power will increase, along with their opportunities, so none of you should have any issues. I am not here to rule through fear, but if force is necessary, I do have the power to implement this forcefully"

"If you can all agree and work with me, we can work towards improving the continent, ourselves and no one should have issues. If there any issues or if someone refuses to join me, then speak up"

The Earth Leader spoke clearly, confidently and authoritatively, intimidating the country leaders slightly, but they all knew that he was only doing so out of his care for the continent and its people.
