(Hadar POV)
Twenty years later, the seeds we planted finally sprouted into a huge golden tree.
The results were very outstanding. Tall skyscrapers, business districts, and community park was everywhere to be found.
The financial analysts declared this miraculous moment as the 'Golden Age Era' of my nameless planet.
There was a large screen pinned in the tallest tower of my capital. They often showed the appearance of the leader of this planet. Telling a lot of good things about his achievement, his wonder speech for the planet, and a great accomplishment for his people was daily announced in the public.
The child who was holding a speech was none other than me, Hadar.
I had a body of a ten-year-old child.
'Damn it, I'm thirty years old, but I look like old Stewie from family guy. Young and child-like brat,' I sighed.
I poured my glass with water and drank it. Then, I mounted on my chair in the office.
I opened the computer and checked the previous photo of Manila, my capital city.
Why I named it Manila? It's simple. I liked the name. It's one of the reminders of my previous life, so there's no need to dig for more information. Additionally, the geographical condition of the capital city was normal compare to other continents.
Why did I decide to establish my city here? Because I liked tropical places. The cold and hot season was the only thing I had to experience annually.
'I don't like snow, spring, and autumn season too. It's making me remember the day I first met my ex-wife,' I grimaced.
Only a few people could understand the reason, so I feel sorry for the idiots who didn't bat an eye in my situation.
'R/whoosh for losers like them.'
Every state of my planet developed properly with or without my guidance.
You won't find any poor citizens because I forced them to become middle class.
As the vicious lord, all assets should be treated properly. I had to make sure that all of them had money to spend and then, I could squeeze them dry through tax!
You won't find any single squatter area because I forced them to sign permanent residences in my condominiums and apartments.
When I first announced the housing program publicly, everyone was excited. Not only that, they even thanked me in advance. I tilted my head on the side with a confused face.
The stupid citizens truly believed it was a virtuous program, but little did they know it was a disguise to take their properties without a hitch. But, I sensed a disturbance after the destruction of their homes.
E, everyone was crying in joy.
'C'mon people, I'm gonna force you to pay a lot. That's not even free. Why are you guys thanking me for destroying your ugly house? I'm taking your land by force.'
From that moment, I, therefore, concluded that I had to educate these people about the reality and the importance of protecting their family properties.
Leona proposed the plan to pay off our outstanding debts by taking a large loan, so our territory should be freed from the long-overdue responsibility. The renewal of our obligation should be extended for a long period of time. With the establishment of the bank system we created, my debt obligation won't be an issue for a while and the administration should set a new course for the betterment of society.
Thankfully, her proposal greatly decreased the heavy burden on my back.
The side effects of global warming slowly perished from my world, and the programs for the rehabilitation of our nature finally cured the ozone layer.
Before I came into power, the world's outside atmosphere was covered with abandoned satellites, junks, and specks of dirt of the past. But as of today, the stars shall be seen in the sky every night.
The livelihood program superbly made the citizen so happy, and the level of poverty slowly diminished after they received their financial support.
As a vicious dictator, I created a law to force the unemployed and illiterate bystanders to work. I even coerced them to submit a referendum of agreement. That they would eternally work under me and all of their taxes should be paid diligently.
I expected them to complain or cursed my name. Instead, my trust rating reached the highest score. All of them were very grateful.
'Huh? Why are you all happy about the bad news? It's bad news for everyone, though. Are they nuts, huh? I'm making you people buried in debt. To control all of you. Don't thank me for giving you a job. I'm forcing you all into a slave, stupid morons!'
'As expected, they are all stupids. I need to increase the budget for the education program. I have to do it before it's too late. I need a law for disciplinary action too.'
Two days later, I signed a decree which increased the citizen's obligation to follow my new laws whether they like it or not.
Their children mandatorily should enroll in the school. If the child didn't want to, then they must live in the rural area to work on the farm.
'No one escapes for my evil plan.'
Anyone who dared to bully the weak shall be executed. No more trials if proven guilty as a charge.
'I have to do that. Bullying the weak will only create butterfly effects. The victim will take revenge on the response in a gruesome way, and I know, for sure, this weak will transform into a monster. That is not a real problem I must stop no matter what. I don't like a competitor to rise up in here. That's why bullies should die like my old enemies from the past.'
All citizens are strictly permitted to use only electric-charged vehicles rather than diesel-run automobiles. Anyone who caught using it shall face heavy consequences.
'I will kill anyone who used those things. I already fix the climate change, so follow the goddamn law.'
The citizens shall mandatorily perform a nonstop operation to preserve the beauty of all-natural resources such as rivers, lakes, sea, and mountains.
I even added the limitation of mining rights and deforestation. The violators shall heavily be punished with the death penalty without a trial upon caught in the act.
The last but not least, the proclamation of low tax incentives to all business owners of my territory must be implemented in every state.
'I want to squeeze the rich people too, you know. In order for them to stay, I must make them happy and enjoy their time in here,' I simpered.
A day later on, I received a piece of news that the noble society declared me an idiot. A talentless nobody wasted his money on the garbage.
'What an asshole. Hmm, whatever, at least they are normal compare to my citizens.'
The next day, I subsidized the pensions for all retired employees after I heard it from Francis and I quickly reissued a new protocol for the protection of their rights. I even forced them to sign a paper for long-term insurance.
'If I don't do that, I will retire as an old man without any penny from the government. I don't want that!'
I heaved a sigh of relief thereafter.
I received a report about the current status of our population. My lips upturned after I read that the unemployed and underemployed finally reached zero.
Outstanding!
The crime rate of this planet was below five. This was a delight to behold.
Wonderful!
'Aaah, this is the best time ever!'
But, my good mood disappeared upon reading the news about me.
The people of this planet praised me like their God. Due to my selfless action to help them, all of the states built a big tower of my statues in their public places to express their respect and gratitude.
The savior of all the planet and the first and foremost virtuous ruler who demolish slavery.
A propaganda movement initiated around the world without my knowledge.
'W, who the fuck established that fan club?' I worried.
I placed a hand on my forehead and heaved a tired sigh.
Why it turned out like this? My people misunderstood everything behind these programs that they reacted in a silly way out of the blue.
Unbeknownst to them, this was only a small part of my plan to become a vicious lord.
The more manpower with good skills I had, the better.
"Nevermind. Be happy today, my people. Once I gain the power to control the universe, I shall bring you more suffering. This will open your eyes from the truth," I chuckled.
They believed they had freedom and human rights. They were all wrong. I made them live like this to become my slave.
My slavery plan was different from my predecessors. I made my own version based on my ideology and my waifu's beliefs.
At first, I loathed the idea to free them all, but after I learned that the slaves were exclusive to pay taxes, I quickly abolished it without a second thought.
By turning them into low class would force them to become a taxpayer like the others mandatorily.
'Man, I'm really a vicious and genius man,' I smiled with crescent moon lips.
