Chapter 62 Control
"They can't stay here, it is our district, it is not our problem that their districts are destroyed by now..." Rivok told the people who attended his meeting in the institution yard.
The minute he walked away from those refugees, he ordered a few of his companions to call out for a meeting in the Eclouxerra institution of magic.
He couldn't wait for another day to fix the situation in the district. Rivok didn't want those people to settle here, when this region is without a ruler for the first time, anyone could claim that and to him, this was his chance taste power.
" This situation is temporary, I assure you, the higher regions can't just abandon us like that, you have to believe that, all of you…this only temporary yet they are too shameless to act as if they were all by their own.
This is our place and we rule over it…put it on your mind, the moment we accept their presence with us, they are going to ask for more and more, their greed could cause chaos into our district"
An old man said at that moment:" We all heard about the natural disasters that happened in those districts, it is not normal, and the absence of the authority isn't in our favor either"
A girl in her twenties said:" Maybe we are next on the list"
Another woman said:" They were forced to go, my son told me that they were forced him to go there with no return"
" Woman, don't say this! What are your intentions?, do you want to create a distraction ? What you are saying is unacceptable, '' one of his friends replied.
Rivok walked closer to the crowd, and said with confidence:'' This is a test, to everyone in this region, I am sure…they want to take people from one district only, and that is why they are giving them these hardships.
People of district one, the higher regions chose us from all the other districts, if they stay here they are only going to lessen our chances for leveling up ".
" A test ? " Another teen said.
The crowd in front of Rivok seemed to be very confused because of that theory, simply because he treated it as a fact, which made the people think that that was the truth .
"I believe that the test is not going to be a few days any way, it will be long which means that our limited resources are going to be consumed by them, our chances of survival will be reduced a day after another, we are not talking about one district, this is three districts! No one knows when district three will join"
"So, you are suggesting their deportation? " An old man said from the crowd.
" Yes "Rivok answered firmly .
" How are you planning to do that ?, they are always going to comeback, it is not like we are going to observe them all the time"
Rivok put a confident smile on his face, then said:" We have the walls, and guard's points, we can control their activities like that"
"That's not possible"
" It is possible, that system worked for centuries, we can do it " Rivok assured them.
People seemed to be hesitant of his plan, they believed his words but to do what he wanted meant to start a war between them and the other districts that were seeking for help.
" The evacuation of people from districts four and five is the easiest, they are not going to fight, you know why? Because they see us as their saviors, they seeked help from people living in the borders and they have been taken care of for weeks, they won't ask for more, they already believe that they asked for more than they deserve"
" How do you know that is the case !"
" I visited them myself a few days ago, and i know that they are incapable of asking for more help"
" So, region two is the problem?"
" Yes, and we can't let anyone of them meet people from district four or five, if they join their forces they would be unable to lose, and we are going to lose everything to them, our district, powers, respect and i can't live with that "
" Yes we can't live like that" A lot of people answered at the time.
" How do we start mister Rivok?" A man asked.
" Well, as a start, this district need a leader, a temporary one to rule over everything, we can't afford impulsive behavior during this period"
"A leader? Do you have one in mind?" A woman in her thirties asked.
" Yes"
" Who ? do tell"
" Well, me, I could rule you until we figure everything out"He answered.
Rivok was a tall man with a strong body, in his forties with silver hair, he looked charismatic to everyone who knew him, the only thing that he was lacking was divine energy and that is why he was stuck in this place.
" Well that sounds like a good idea, '' one of his friends said with a cheerful face.
" It is only temporary until we get rid of them, just in the meanwhile I want the powerful ones among you to join me, in case something went wrong while asking them to leave the place ".
" Let's say that you asked them nicely to leave this district, and they refused . You can't force them to leave this place, so how are you going to act at that time ?"One woman wondered.
" You should all know that violence is the last tool, i am not planning to fight them right away, i am just going to explain them the rules, the lack of resources, and see their reaction, if they insisted on staying and ruin our chance to level up, then i am going to be severe with them" Rivok stated after smirking to the woman who asked.
He didn't say a word after that so that he wouldn't sound like he was begging them, he just kept putting a smile on his face .
