"Say, what kind of animal did make you blind dear scientist?.".
The mayor then answered skull saying "Politics is a bloodshed arena, where in lots of things can happen. If you are not accustomed to it, then your perspective on politics is different. I once trusted a family and in the end they stab me in the back. "
Skull then paused for awhile and he think of the mayors situation, he have seen lots of individuals involve in politics and none of them are spared on bloodshed.
"I remember a person who was stabbed in the back too, he was treated like a dog."
The mayor then gave skull a smile and he said "Poltics will be politics. Since you are willing to listen. Then by all means, I am glad to share it unto you. Sometimes, time will make you worthy and sometimes time will make you an unworthy one. To be honest, I don't crave anything on politics, but someone stab me in the back. Maybe he is unskilled, or he is just a fool, he may have a lots of money or connections but he is unworthy, and the people who are watching is Aware of my existence. Instead, they give me respect, some give me hostility that even I got this incurable scar.". He then opened up his left eye and took it like a normal thing. "This is an artificial eye that somehow makes my left scar be comfortable.". He then gave it to skull.
"Pain, traitors and mad people. Treachery?.". Skull said.
"Yes it is. Listen, there are two person in this world. The poor and the rich. In politics, people often favoured the rich, because they all have the so called money and richness that almost everyone wants. However, professionals favour the poor. Want to know why?."
"Care to share me your experience."
"I dont know why, but I guess the poor craves for progress. Want to know why I got blind?. Because I am a bad guy.".
"So you got your own karma."
"Sometimes, people will judge you of your colour and that's right. Yet karma works on different way. I am poor in the beginning, broken at young age, tortured in my life, in contrast, I am also care free and somehow careless, in other words worlds hated. Yet a certain time caused me to know what pain Is, good thing I am not that assertive."
"I dont know, good thing you are alive."
"Are you already confused. A person from a single family did torture me almost to the brink of death. I got an incurable wound that I may no longer retake and I am glad for it. At the very least, I won't forget their names. Anyways I see them incompetent and I am right. There are those people who still believes in me despite of my so called millenial actions. But still look at how our civilisation works. Have you ever seen such thing?. None. In my period I strive to modernize the land that none of them could ever done. That's how incompetent they are."
"Clever, a clear and natural source of energy. A good transmission of electricity, modern hospital and police station. What could I say, I guess you've done it all. Don't tell me, they just provoked you and you already visualize such civilisation."
"That's right, they just insulted me and everything went nuts. Want to know, what happened to that family?.".
"I dont know, maybe dead. That's politics after all."
The guy then smiled with a devilish grin and a loud sound of laughter resounded.
"Gone, all of them died. Not by my hands, but by guilt. Maybe they are just the blues, blues for the reality and visions of my troubled mind. Want to know why people hated me and I got into the throne?."
"Throne? You mean your sit?."
"Yes it is. That's because I just showed them what is civilisation is."
"So you are not just all words."
"It is evident. I am just sad even now that I got blind.".
"Well, you are managing your land well."
"Thanks to the professionals not me. Say, how will you manage a forest land?.".
"Hahaha, sounds interesting. So this place is a forest land. Then you change it into a city. How many years did you build such thing?"
"5 or two."
Skull gulped his own saliva and he smiled.
"Such progress, from forest Land to a civilized city.".
"Hahaha, I love it so much. It is public governance. "
"To tell you what. I too also took 3 to 5 years before I got my own company. I started with small enterprises until I started to innovate things. Then I got a chance to the government until I got promoted. Thats how civilisation works, it is a nonstop progress."
"I know, I gathered all of the information that I could get. You started to create ideas and make it with your own hands. That's how innovations are."
"So you also profile checked me."
"I am a bad guy afterall.".
"Uhm, I have a request. Can you give me a portion of land where in I could manage while I am here at your jurisdiction."
"You want me to give you a portion of land so you could manage it?. What are you going to do to it?."
"I guess, I will manage it. I want an empty land, something that I could manage from the scratch."
"An uncivilised one to a civilized. How are you going to manage it."
"That is already up to me."
"Its a no. You must be a part of the government before you could do it. Are you not aware of laws, mandates and anything."
"That, I forgot." Skull then cursed inside saying "I almost had him".
