The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe

Chapter 235: Self-Awareness


After careful consideration, he instructed these Merfolk to go and inform the others.

They were to announce that he, the administrator, had arrived on the island and that all Merfolk should gather.

Then, he would address them and select a few trusted subordinates to assist with the island's daily affairs.

The island's original management system would be officially abolished at this moment.

It was now that he finally understood the situation.

When Tina went to the Underground City earlier, Fang Ka had assigned a group of Merfolk to accompany her. Now, most of Tina's trusted aides were those from their original tribe.

Yet, when he came to the Merfolk Islands this time, there wasn't a single Merfolk from the tribe accompanying him, only Aiman.

So, what role could Aiman play?

It was undoubtedly one of intimidation.

In other words, Fang Ka's original plan was for him to leverage Aiman's intimidation effect, using both kindness and coercion, to make the native Merfolk here completely submit to him.

Then, he would cultivate his own trusted subordinates within the group, taking complete control of the island.

After realizing this, he felt it was clear that he should follow the path Fang Ka had laid out for him.

It didn't take much time for a large number of Merfolk from various places to gather on the island where Sadek was.

It must be said, the speed at which the Merfolk could relay messages was quite impressive.

Looking at the Merfolk gathering in large numbers, Sadek contemplated for a moment, then found a high point nearby and stood upon it.

This would ensure that once all the Merfolk gathered, they could see his face and figure.

Meanwhile, Aiman stood silently beside Sadek, waiting for him to handle the island's matters, and then instruct where to set up the Sub-Magic Array of the Sound of Cyan Wood. Once it was set up, he could leave.

When most of the Merfolk from the islands had assembled, Sadek repeated his self-introduction.

After completing his introduction, Sadek continued to speak, "I just asked a few Merfolk and learned that your management method involves assigning an Island Lord to each island in the archipelago to govern the various islands."

"When issues arise, the Island Lords discuss them."

"To be honest, I do not agree with this method of management since Lord Fang Ka has assigned the Merfolk Islands to me for governance, I naturally must manage them well."

"From now on, this management method is officially abolished, and I trust there are no objections?"

"Additionally, would the Island Lords of each island please step forward, so I may get to know you."

As Sadek finished speaking, many Merfolk quickly stepped forward and gathered before him.

Sadek's gaze lingered on their faces for a moment before he spoke, "Since you were previously chosen as the Island Lords by everyone, it indicates that you should have certain management capabilities."

"From this moment, as you are removed from your positions as Island Lords, you will follow me, assisting me in managing the island's affairs and taking on the tasks I assign to you."

"If any of you excel, I will prioritize fostering and promoting you."

"If any of you underperform, sadly, you must do what you are supposed to do and can no longer take up management roles."

After speaking, Sadek turned his gaze away from the Island Lords and addressed the ordinary Merfolk, "Of course, others also have the opportunity. I will pay attention to your performance."

"If someone excels, I will also promote you to take on management roles when the time comes.

After listening to Sadek, several Island Lords showed a hint of dissatisfaction, but upon seeing the expressionless Aiman beside Sadek, they quickly hid their displeasure.

Lord Fang Ka is now their Protector.

They naturally do not dare to defy the administrator appointed by Fang Ka.

Furthermore, with Aiman following the administrator, it was obvious Fang Ka attached great importance to this, making them even less daring to defy him.

Following Sadek's arrangements, everything proceeded smoothly.

Meanwhile, players transporting mining equipment passing overhead noticed the large assembly of Merfolk below, seemingly in a meeting, and curiously approached.

However, they were disappointed as they clearly did not understand what Sadek was saying.

Thus, after observing for a while, they felt bored and left, continuing to complete their tasks.

Sadek paid no attention to these players.

In his view, these players were Lord Fang Ka's direct subordinates, and no one other than Lord Fang Ka had the right to command them.

If they wanted to watch, let them watch. If they wished to leave, let them leave; let them be.

There was no need for him to interfere with them.

Nor was there any need to dictate their actions.

Sadek was very clear about his self-awareness and understanding of his role.

After he arranged everything concerning the Merfolk, he dismissed them to resume their duties.

Once the Merfolk dispersed, Sadek nodded to Aiman beside him and said, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I have basically determined the location for the Sub-Magic Array of the Sound of Cyan Wood, follow me."

Upon hearing Sadek, Aiman immediately nodded, then followed Sadek's lead.

Sadek led Aiman to the east side of an island and instructed him to set up the Sub-Magic Array of the Sound of Cyan Wood there.

Previously, Fang Ka had explained that Sadek was to decide the placement of the Magic Array, so Aiman immediately nodded.

He then began to set it up in the designated spot.

After setting up the Array of the Sound of the Cyan Wood, he turned to Sadek and said, "It's done. Do you have any further matters?"

"Or is there any message you'd like me to convey to Mage Fang Ka for you?"

"If not, I will be taking my leave."

Upon hearing Aiman, Sadek hesitated slightly before speaking, "No need, thank you, there's nothing for now. If I need to contact Lord Fang Ka in the future, I'll use the Magic Array."

Hearing Sadek's response, Aiman did not say much more. He nodded to Sadek and then walked over to the Nightmare Beast.

With agile movements, he mounted the Nightmare Beast and quickly departed towards Kain Island.
