Gao Guang angrily said, "Can I just give them a call? What kind of crappy advantage is this!"
"Actually, you could directly ask them to do things, but... well, that advantage is now void."
Otto also felt wronged. Gao Guang felt cheated, but he felt even more so. After all the calculations, who could have predicted that Edelweiss would have internal conflicts?
The succession in Edelweiss wasn't like the succession to a throne in some countries, where bloodline matters.
It was more like the presidential succession in the United States. If the president were to suddenly pass away, the vice president would become the acting president, followed by the Speaker of the Senate, and then the Speaker of the House of Representatives until the end of the term, when a new president would be elected.
Gao Guang's identity was now like that of a nominal, powerless Speaker of the House of Representatives. By all accounts, it was never his turn to ascend.
