Still, there was one thing that the Zasfins were confused about. "Why did you not nominate yourself? Instead, you appointed Vance Hafel for the position."
Duran shrugged his shoulders as he replied, "I have lived my life in the shadows, only bothering with my own cultivation. If not because of what happened to Fikin, I wouldn't even appear at all. Being the Soul Rulers' leader? I don't want to even think about all the bothersome tasks that come along with that. Fikin liked the attention, so he was fine with it. However, I'm totally different. "
Duran then warned the Zasfins after that. "Once everything stabilizes, I'll be leaving again. Obviously, I can't be a leader like that. Fikin was almost always available, after all."
"Leave?" The Zasfins were confused. "Shouldn't you stay and help prevent the demon beasts' actions?"
Duran nodded as he replied, "And I will. Once this election of a new leader is over, I'm going to talk with the demon beasts."
