David was feeling like his brain was going to burst out and spread all over the floor and felt like his senses were becoming turbid. He looked up at the serious-looking half-naked youth in front of him and cursed,
"What's with that look? Tell me clearly what are you trying to tell!"
Before Alexander could speak, David walked forward and held his head with both hands, "Now you can't nod your head. Just speak clearly."
Alexander didn't move and continued in all seriousness,
"Brother David, don't you feel that this world is too chaotic and we are too low in the food chain?"
David just nodded his head as it was actually true. Even though in front public their families currently hold a strong position in society and were prominent in the entire Eurasian Nation, but the reality was not like that. Apart from the Alliance of 10 families, which act as one unit in the entire Eurasian Nation, there are 4 Palaces that also control government, economy and other things of this huge country.
The four Palaces were namely, Fire Palace, Water Palace, Metal Palace, Wood Palace.
These Palaces were formed by different group of individuals and were standing tall since the formation of the Eurasian Nation. The top 10 families of Alliance don't have a say in the Palaces, except Joseph family.
The Joseph Family's history extends from the great war period. The developed and peaceful Eurasian Nation used to be a place for dog fights just like the current Chaotic Nation. It was the effort of the four Palaces that worked in unison to unify and bring peace to this great continent.
At that time Joseph family's founder, Stephen Joseph was a warlord in the Fire Palace and thus even though Joseph family doesn't have a seat in Fire Palace currently, they are still invited to the meetings in the Fire Palace to show respect to the great elders.
There were also existences like Global Peace Union, Wolf Head Group, Jackson Clan, Knight Clan and more, that rule this world directly or indirectly, so people like David and Alexander were just small fishes in the ocean filled with sharks and whales.
Alexander looked at the thoughtful look on David's face and continued, knowing what David was thinking.
"We are too low and our existence means nothing to anyone. We are nobles as we were born into a so-called noble family but after we are dead… WE ARE NOTHING! A VERY FEW WILL REMEMBER US!"
"Are you willing to submit to fate and let it be like this? Even if you can, I can't! We need to change this and become some bigshot and make a name for us."
Alexander himself was moved by his speech and thought, "I spoke about many scientific theories in seminars in my past life but I never gave a motivational speech, I think I am quite good at it too."
David slowly released Alexander's face and stood motionless for a while, then the light of determination made his eyes shine brilliantly like a diamond. His blood was boiling after listening to this wonderful speech.
{AN: That wasn't wonderful at all.}
"Brother Alexander! We will change our fate! This world will kneel in front of us."
Cough... Cough... Alexander coughed twice and looked weirdly at David, "What do you mean by 'kneel in front of us'? We aren't some sort of dictators or evil existences."
"If.. if we are fated to sit on the throne, we will build a better world, rather than those shitty so-called unions and aristocrats. We will work for development and succession."
This was Alexander's plan. He personally experienced, how those who sit on the throne, abuse their powers. They take everything under them as bugs and insects without any feelings and just crush them. He suffered this in his last life. Now when he can hold the power to change, he decided to change everything and make everything good for those at the low.
David nodded and admitted his wrong but then a question popped up in his mind, "But, how we will achieve it?"
Alexander shook his head, "I don't know… neither can I or you know. Road to the throne is not pre-built, we need to create our own. But in this world, to build a road we need labour and money."
"Money is the most important thing to move forward in this world. Labour means one's power and support, we need to strengthen ourselves to fight against water and fire, we need to have people who can support us when we are down and share our load."
The requirements Alexander stated were the most basic but at the same time, most important. They can't do anything without money. Whether they need food, shelter, weapons or health care, they need to pay for everything.
Power of self and supporters is something that is needed to protect yourself and your loved ones while fighting against giants and dwarfs.
David too understood this and sat down on the bed. His expression wasn't as lively as daily, he clenched his fist, "We need to increase our power to change our fate."
Alexander giggled looking at David's face and patted his back, "Ok! Let's clean up first. We need to take this slowly, we can't rush."
