( 16 hours ago , in the capital city of Hazelgroove )
Rudra was cornered by Cervantez , he had no way to justify his actions anymore , as Cervantez had seen right through all his schemes.
Hence Rudra decided to say something from his heart for a change and not try to manipulate his way out of trouble for once.
He said " You are right , i did everything like you said i did , however here is where you are wrong my emperor.
Whitecloud city houses the biggest slum in the entire kingdom with over 250,000 people living in absolutely pitiful conditions.
Unemployment is at a record 30% , as one in every three men are jobless.
Have i used the common man's emotions to serve my purpose? Yes i have , however , do note that even though I caused a supply chain crisis , NOT A SINGLE COMMONER HAS DIED OF STARVATION.
The only manipulation i did was that the one who provided the food was me. Nothing more .
