Chapter 346: The Public Favorite

Using the evidence, recordings, physical evidence and witnesses against the people belonging from the different sectors of the governments, military, noble clans and business organizations.. Kahn had brought more than 2 thousand people into custody.

Every single one of them belonging to a top force or having the backing of some top faction from the capital.

Day by day, dozens of criminals belonging to the high class of society were brought into the People's Court and their deeds were exposed to the people.

And through the voting process alone, plenty of people were given a death sentence. And the ones to carry it out were the covenant soldiers who were fully geared and masked under helmets.

Nobody knew of their real identities or their origins but now these soldiers in gray armors had become the people's protectors.

Kahn, on the other hand, had limited his involvement.

Unless there was someone with extremely high standing or their deeds had greatly impacted the fiefdom or the lives of the people, Kahn hadn't carried out the sentencing himself like he did with commander Aswala.

And two more weeks passed.. The entire atmosphere in the Verlassen fiefdom had completely changed.

Because everyday, a great crime against the citizens of the empire that had resulted in millions of lives lost was revealed that fueled the hatred among the common people.

Kahn was strategically managing these trials so that the public opinion would always keep swinging to his side.

Although the whole empire had gotten the news about Kahn's deed and how he was mercilessly killing these people… the commoner class that made up 95% of the entire population of Rakos Empire was cheering for him instead.

Because Kahn had been deliberately spending trillions of gold coins to spread the recordings of these trials and how the people, regardless of their age, gender, species, race or color who committed heinous crimes against the common population due to their, greed and lust for power were being made to pay for their sins in the People's Court.

The support from the citizens across the whole empire was positive despite the government trying to criticize Kahn as a merciless tyrant.

But one they didn't understand that the people they were trying to sell the story to belonged to the side of the victims. So no way they'd believe in the lies told by the government who had been oppressing them till this point while trying to appear fair and just.

And after three weeks… People's Court had become a drug to the common citizens and the recordings of these trials were highly sought after by the masses.

Seeing the opportunity, more people with a knack for business started copying and creating their own stocks of recording artifacts. Eventually helping Kahn to spread them amongst the 4 billion population of the empire.

Kahn stood in his castle and had all of the available subordinates present in a meeting hall on the third floor.

"It's going as you planned, master. Every day, we're bringing in the corrupted officials, businessmen and officers from the military for the trial after gathering evidence against them.

And the innocent people of the fiefdom are greatly supporting you to the point some are forming cults and worship you as their savior." spoke Omega.

To his report, Kahn let spoke in a serious tone instead.

"Remember… There are no truly innocent people in the world."

"The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns good men... cruel." explained Kahn.

"But when the powerless are put in the position of the same people who oppressed, controlled and ruled them… they would eventually end up doing the same kind of crimes and acts that made them detest the powerful in the first place." iterated Kahn as he decided to speak the truth of the real world.

"When a weak person was given a strong weapon that could kill anyone they hated.. And that too without any consequences.. They'd show their true colors.

In this case.. I'm the weapon and they're the ones swinging it." he said as he looked out of the window and took a glance at the crowd of the capital.

But little did the citizens or the criminals know.. That it was that very weapon controlling both of them at the same time.

The criminals he brought into the People's Court were all his enemies and targets that stood in his way of absolute Dominance and Sovereignty in this fiefdom.

And using the name of the public and crimes done against them, Kahn was clearing out his competition without anyone being able to question his authority.

Instead, his popularity and support was increasing with each passing day. And now… many top-level government officials and people holding military positions were taken out one by one.

But for some reason… Kahn still hadn't acted against the remaining semi-saint commanders from the three factions and the one from the native's side as if he had plans for them.

For the remaining two commanders from the noble factions… every passing day became insufferable as the fear of being brought into the People's Court ate their sanity and they couldn't even sleep without having nightmares of a Kahn's greatsword plunged in their chest.

But they couldn't even flee from their positions because their factions ordered them to hold the fort till they came up with a strategy of their own to counter Kahn's rising popularity.

Despite all their efforts to make him the villain and spreading hundreds of different rumors against him, none of the three top noble factions had succeeded because Kahn had evidence and recordings from the broadcast to justify his actions, showing how the guilty committed what crimes; while these enemies of his only had their lies and orchestrated narratives.

Yet, Kahn was doing everything by the law and authority that was given to him after winning the Emperor's Chosen competition and everybody he exposed was indeed worthy of that punishment… so they couldn't even move against him using a justified reason.

And the biggest factor that stopped them from making moves was that all these people belonged to the elites of the society, noble clans and factions as well as the soldiers that originated from their own ranks.

So pointing their weapons against the one man who was fighting for the commoners in his fiefdom and punishing those who caused thousands and millions of deaths of innocents would turn the whole empire against them.

And since no Saint could even enter the Verlassen fiefdom… they had no available options to remove him either.

Because sending in the army or their respective troops with the warships would be no different than a declaration of saying that the noble factions wanted to kill him for bringing out the truth to the masses.

The flawed system they created was becoming their undoing and they were forced to minimize damage instead.

So for now, all the three noble factions had no choice but to keep their mouth shut and wait for a method that would help them regain control of this fiefdom without creating anymore problems.

And in just a matter of the next three weeks.. Kahn promoted and handed out the positions of the main figureheads in all the sectors of the government infrastructure to only those who chose to follow and thoroughly support him. He had no use of others even if they were more qualified or had a seniority. Kahn only needed those who would serve him loyally.

So in just one month after coming to Verlassen fiefdom…

Kahn had toppled the government and cemented his rule as a Sovereign.

And now... There were only three more sectors left to rule. And his next target was none other than...

THE MILITARY!
