No Time Chapter 56

On the day of the eting, everyone arrived impeccably on ti, if not, early.

Yun said they probably didn't want to be here early or late because earliness would an that they were desperate. But they would also not want to be late because that would be rude.

Everyone gradually entered and seated in the huge eting room that was right next to my office.

The Yang family brought their patriarch and wife as well as their son, Little Blue. The patriarch, Yang Jin, was smiling, but I didn't know if he really was smiling because he wanted to. And Yun texted that they probably brought Little Blue to make weaker towards their clan. There was no way such a calculating businessman wouldn't miss this opportunity to get a better deal than the other clans.

Oh, we had to text because whispers can be heard easily if you strain your ears. And everyone here would have powers anyways, so there was no choice but for it to be done this way.

The eting started first with the schedule sheet passed out by my secretary. He announced the schedule and answered any questions that ca up about it.

Most of the questions ca from the Valen clan as the schedule sheet had been translated for them but there were still mistakes on there. The verbal translation was easier as the translator devices had been passed out to them already.

There were three main topics to talk about.

1) How to split off power

2) When to give the Valen Clan zombie trials.

3) Explaining the rest of the base system and roles to the Valen Clan.

Yes, it was mostly related to the Valen clan.

For the first topic, all went well and there were even so adjustnts to the plans previously made. There would be sothing like a governnt with a ruler and a council. The ruler would have power but it had to be agreed upon by the others by a majority. And the council would be made up of representatives with more representatives. Basically, the ruler had nothing to do except attend important etings just for mostly show. And the ruler would be able to veto anything as well.

The council would be made up of all the clans but mostly the regular citizens. Principal Ying Xuang, the hospital director, the political representative, the hackers, and researchers would be the representatives for the council as well as others in the future.

Andrei's mom didn't want to participate and was planning to make a deal with later on about the point system and hunting outside. She also planned on talking to the 2 researchers I brought today to discuss matters about making a business of it.

Onto the second topic.

When to give the Valen Clan zombie trials.

I started off, "I presu that your clan already knows of the zombie trials."

"Yes, not specifically or very detailed, but we know about it."

So they've been snooping around, huh.

I motioned to the researchers behind and they explained what the zombie trial did.

So of the people behind the Valen clan patriarch grimaced. They probably already got their powers and didn't have any chances of gaining random power, only a body & mind boost, and one more regular power.

The Valen clan wrote on paper and passed it around. They didn't get their core devices yet also.

For the conclusion of the second topic, the core devices would be delivered tomorrow and the zombie trials could also be arranged to start then.

I think the third topic was the hardest to discuss.

The base system and roles were pretty much known.

Everyone had to hunt unless they could pay to not go out.

Everyone had to have a job as well and education was required.

There were still more to be determined about the permanent roles, such as researchers, hackers, and especially hunters.

I had decided not too long ago that the researchers and hackers would also have to go out and hunt. They could pay for people to protect them and they only needed to bring back a plant at the very least. It was their perks, but as they also had superior bodies and minds, they weren't supposed to slack off.

There would be specific jobs that would allow the worker to be excused from going out. And one or two tis for missing an outing would be ok although they would have to pay a fine.

And for what I ant for 'hardest to discuss' was that everyone, not only the Valen clan but the Yang clan and Lu clan as well, asked so many questions at once and debating points to change.

I really wanted to leave there and now.

"Preposterous!"

"You dare!"

"No, we should-"

Rather than the clan leaders, the attendants behind them and I made a ruckus.

Ugh, this really wasn't fun. Why'd I ever think it was exciting?

Thankfully, lunch was served and everyone gradually quieted and made small talk.

Yun just texted the whole ti during lunch and I could only wearily read them.

"You know what, why don't you beco the leader instead of ?" I asked.

"Don't dump it all on . And besides, all you need to do is agree or veto!" he exclaid.

"I never thought that a governnt would be this hard to create..."

"Hey, it's a lot simpler than it was for many kings and leaders. Which is due to you having absolute power."

"Maybe if I regress again, I won't make a base like this. I'll probably only care for my siblings and friends."

"I'm included, right?"

"Of course, after all, you are the first friend I made."

"Hmph, that's right, don't you dare think of leaving behind."

We both snickered.

But really, if I died, either of old age or due to an accident, would I go back in ti again?
