Four Split Personalities

Independence.

The summary given by Angus Georgia did not shock Double Leaf in the slightest; it could even be said it was expected. After all, for her, someone living in the ’future’ of the Holy Calendar Year 9571, that land located in Xibei Dalu, known as the Georgia Territory, was already independent. Though it did not call itself a ’country’, in essence, it fully functioned as a well-rounded small principality.

As for the exact time of Georgia Territory’s independence, Double Leaf did not know, nor did she care. But judging by the developments in this story, it is likely the very time she was currently experiencing.

In the early days of the Sun Dynasty’s collapse, although a vast amount of land centered around the Royal Capital Ondshale was razed to the ground, as a creature more than centipede-like, those high-ranking individuals filled with a sense of honor and loyalty did not sit idly by. In fact, after a brief shock, they almost immediately initiated rescue measures, desperately trying to maintain the dynasty’s continuation.

Although the Grand Chancellor, along with the entire Advanced Stage council, was blown to smithereens by the ’Great Meteor Spell’ that fortified the place, those fortunate ones who were not in the dynasty’s central area, namely the core administrative region of Ondshale and its four directly governed provinces, still created a [Temporary Council] at the first opportunity. Within half a month, they completed the reconstruction of the upper levels and began to madly run around the territory.

Obviously, the [Temporary Council], which, from its inception, never intended to let any sycophants inside, was clearly aware of what the biggest trouble at hand was.

It wasn’t the highly suspected Sky Pillar Mountain, which wreaked havoc on the dynasty in a way that was neither scientific nor magical. Nor was it the dragons, who had just had their home destroyed and royal family cleansed, who had now scattered into pieces, but those lands that were conquered by the dynasty in the past hundred years and had become part of the dynasty.

The restless atmosphere spread with unimaginable speed by the second Dawn when the central region of the dynasty was leveled overnight.

Those who originally knelt on the ground, humble and silent, looked up to find that the high throne had already collapsed, and those invincible figures had all turned to dirt.

"In such circumstances, how will those subjects, who have yet to be fully assimilated, view our great dynasty? Will they still worship Ondshale as they did in the past and take pride in being members of the dynasty?"

On the day the Temporary Council was established, one of their leaders, Macabacca, the Governor of the directly governed district who escaped by being out on an inspection tour, raised his hands high and shouted under the giant Sun Dynasty crest in the center of the assembly hall: "Many people will, because they have become respectable citizens, their thirsty and destitute hearts have been filled with faith and honor, but some, they will not..."

The tall beast elf governor squinted his eyes, his amber eyes coldly sweeping over his ’colleagues’ in the assembly hall, who were just as loyal, just as talented, and whose faces were just as gloomy as his. He sighed deeply—

"There’s not much time left, Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m afraid we must immediately contact those who have always been ’knowledgeable of the times’."

...

"I’m not exactly a smart person, Rose."

Angus Georgia smiled self-deprecatingly, then his gaze sharpened: "But I am very clear that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, an opportunity to shake off the dynasty’s rule, to allow everyone to embrace freedom."

Double Leaf furrowed her brow, perfectly embodying the female knight who knew nothing and could only speculate behavior patterns through others’ words and attitudes, while trying to make herself seem foolish, and asked puzzledly: "Freedom? Don’t we have freedom now?"

Angus shrugged with a smile: "We certainly have freedom. In fact, whether it’s me, a provincial manager under the dynasty, or you, who is like my own daughter, we both have very expansive freedom."

Double Leaf blinked slightly: "Then..."

"But freedom should never belong to a minority."

Angus interrupted her, sighing lightly: "How ironic, this sentence is still indelibly stamped in the second section of the third Chapter of the dynasty code."

[Bravo, based on that waste of words, it truly is a pity you didn’t become a great figure.]

Double Leaf blinked, instantly guessing what Angus wanted to say and completing a precise joke in her heart, as she babbled with a bewildered face: "I... don’t understand."

"Hmm, I am not surprised."

Understanding the temperament of his adopted daughter, Angus smiled kindly and softly said: "But Rose, you don’t need to think so much; if you believe me, you must understand that this once-great country has been consumed by obsession, becoming a doomed deformity. Underneath its false prosperity, countless sordid darknesses are growing wildly. The system, once in pursuit of ’greatness,’ started to deem itself ’great,’ and the original climbers have set themselves as the pinnacle, disdainfully overlooking everything. Think about the recent ’Holy War,’ those powerful dragons did nothing, yet our dynasty stripped them of everything."

Double Leaf remained silent, although she continued her high-frequency and uninterrupted ridicule in her heart, her mouth remained obediently silent.
