Actually, when Li Yu suggested Ireya compete for the position of the new Alliance Commander, the young girl herself was taken aback.
She had only thought of a way to drive Hels from the position of Commander, but she had never considered replacing him herself.
Firstly, she did not harbor such ambition, and secondly, she did not believe she had the chance.
Even though that position had become somewhat of a hot seat now.
But Li Yu told her it wasn't a big problem, as long as she was willing to run, being selected was almost a sure thing.
In Li Yu's view, the election for the new Commander was nothing more than a bidding process, where if the proposal was attractive enough and the cost low enough, no one would be able to refuse it.
And indeed, that was the case.
Once Ireya unveiled her Dragon Slayer plan for 700 warriors, it immediately overwhelmed the competition, sending her rivals tumbling. Subsequently, she smoothly became the Alliance Commander.
