Chapter 13 Execution

The next day, Augustus sat on the throne and looked at the injured people who kneeled on the floor in front of him.

His eyes occasionally glancing at a piece of paper where he read names out loud and what jobs they were assigned.

"Nolun, The Minister of Finance"

"Zaren, The Minister of Education"

"Calux, The Minister of Agriculture"

...

...

And on and on Augustus went until he reached the last name on the list.

"Vanhil, The king of Vanhiem" Augustus as he slowly put the list away.

"Your Majesty let me live, Please, let my family live" The king of Vanhiem shouted out loud as he put his head to the ground and pleaded.

Augustus however didn't respond to him and completely ignored his existence, "As the King of Glofield Kingdom and the sole ruler of this land, I hereby announce the execution of the people in front of me will be held today" Augustus said as he glanced at Godfrey and indicated him take away these people.

The hands of everybody were chained and the look of hopelessness was apparent on most of the minister's faces.

It was like they had prepared themselves for death.

Meanwhile, some people like the King and some of his ministers tried to resist with all their might promising various things ranging from money to straight-up women.

But that wasn't going to affect Augsutus's verdict.

Soldiers rushed in and began to drag the screaming men begging for mercy and the men with homelessness on their faces away.

Soon the throne room returned to silence as the voices and the loud clanging of the chains began fading away.

Augustus felt his back weaken slightly as he gripped his face in shame and regret.

What the hell am I actually doing here?" Augustus thought.

"I don't want to do this, sitting on a throne and deciding people's lives with a few words. This is not fun; this is just painful."

He looked around the empty throne room again.

"I need to leave this place,

but... what about the people?"

"Oh, God damn it!" Augustus shouted in frustration.

...

Somewhere on the sea sailed a World government ship with a white masked man and a monocle-wearing a white suit with a polk scarf around his overcoat was sitting on a lawn chair observing the water and enjoying the heavy winds crashing onto his body as if they were simply light breezes.

Suddenly an extremely huge sea king rushed out of the water, its body completely blocking out the sun casting a huge shadow of darkness upon the boat.

It let out a roar as its eyes landed on the boat of the World Government, a glint of ferociousness appeared in its eyes as it began to rush at the boat trying to swallow it in one gulp.

The man who was sitting on that lawn chair upon seeing it rushing to the boat.

Got up in a very relaxed manner and simply dissapered from the spot he was stood on.

The staff who saw this sea king seemed completely unbuttered by the huge body of the sea king coming towards them and just resumed their tasks.

The man in the white suit appeared on top of the sea monster's head seemingly floating in midair, his fist wrapped around in Haki he threw a violent punch at the sea monster's head.

A huge force exploded when his fist made contact with the head and its entire body was thrown into the sea.

Its figure slowly disappears into the vast darkness of the ocean below.

The man with the white mask returned to his chair as if nothing had even happened and the boat they were on continued to sail towards Glofield Kingdom.

...

Augustus who was lost in his thoughts he wandered the large castle alone.

Wondering what he wanted to do when he came close to the familiar large open windows he always saw when he walked towards the War room.

Stopping himself there to enjoy the breeze he looked outside.

His eyes suddenly widened when he looked outside for a second, his confused mind slowly became at ease as what he should do next became crystal clear.

Suddenly he felt a mysterious and suppressive power burst out from his mind, but he quickly reeled it in and continued walking with a light and relaxed smile, his confusion resolved and determination set.

...

In the streets of Glofield kingdom, laughter and cheers resounded.

The streets were filled with people celebrating, some were even crying as many carts were passing by each house guarded by soldiers distributing large amounts of food to every household.

They who have been starved for food for God knows how long, with the sole hope that the king would do something finally got their hopes fulfilled by the new king.

On top of solving their food issue, The new king even went ahead and won the war against Vanhiem Kingdom.

The citizens today had every reason to be celebrating.

This was all done due to the New king, Augustus Glofield.

...

Somewhere in a deserted land called Alabasta.

Steven Strange walked on the ground of Rainbase City.

Cheers resounded from the many gambling stores around Steven.

The atmosphere was filled with an overall joyous atmosphere, some walked out of the casinos with hearty laughter and their pockets filled while some walked out of the casinos with a face that looked like it had been Crushed of any hope.
