580. Some Promotions and Some Blessings

While Alexander dealt with the wannabe gods, Leonidas went with Ajax and Ragnarok in one team and Dobby and Iroh in another went to look for the remaining two Homonculus.

Dobby and Iroh found Sloth and it was an easy kill, well, anything was an easy kill for them. Pride was found by Ragnarok team. But, they all felt weird hitting a kid. What was more shocking was that the kid was actually the son of Bradley.

"Hey, surrender now, that wannabe god is probably dead by now," Leonidas told him.

But Pride chuckled in pride, "Hehe, if he is dead then I will become the god. I will finish what he started. I..."

*BAM*

"GENDER EQUAL AGE IGNORING PUNCH," Ajax shouted as he punched Pride in the head. Ajax was a kid too, so he had no reservations about hurting a kid.

"Dad, he's 300 years old. Don't be fooled by his looks." Ajax shouted.

Now, because of Ajax's punch, the body of Pride burst into a dark shadow-like being with lots of eyes.

"Well, he doesn't even look like a kid now," Ragnarok muttered. He opened his mouth wide and breathed strongly.

He was spewing fire and burning the shadowlike creature to nothingness.

"Well, I guess we are done now. Let's get Alex to become the Fuhrer as soon as possible so I can start my mining projects." Ragnarok muttered as if nothing happened.

Leonidas picked Ajax on his shoulders and they walked out of the tunnel system while destroying it. When they came out to find Alexander, all they could see was Alexander in the middle of a crowd and people cheering his name.

"Haha, no matter where he goes, dad becomes their favourite. I guess our job is near completion in this world now." Leonidas said.

"Yeah, you are right." Dobby appeared from behind.

Ajax suddenly jumped down from Leonidas' shoulder, "Dad, I'm going to find my friends. See you later."

Meanwhile, Alexander was busy giving a speech.

"My people, the evil has been defeated. Now, it's time to prosper, it is time to move forward, Imagine and Invent. I can guarantee you that I will not let any corruption bud in Amestris.

"I had found out that these evildoers were purposely stopping any kind of technological advancements from happening.

"They didn't want you all to travel the world and learn the truth that the Alchemy of Amestris was flawed, something that's not the case in Xing, where Alchemy was also spread at the same time it did here.

"I will also be changing the political structure of our country so corrupt people can't take power in their hands. Be sure to keep an eye on the Amestris Daily newspaper. I am also declaring today as Victory day because today is the day Amestris defeated her biggest enemy and ushered into a new era."

Alexander changed the mood of the whole crowd from worried to excited. All the things Alexander said resonated with the worries of the people as they also didn't want to face such danger again.

Alexander waved his hand at them and got off the stage and headed directly to his office with everyone else.

Soon, there was a big crowd in his office. Hohenheim was also there with his sons. There was not enough space for everyone to sit so Alexander simply removed all furniture except one table for himself.

"First of all, Edward Elric and Alphonse Elric, the military is no place for you two. You are honourably discharged from the Military. You will receive a normal pension from now on. You two will now attend and also teach at the new Alchemy Institute I am opening for the general public.

"Now, coming to everyone else. I will be changing Amestris from being a Military state to a democratic state. Creta, Aerugo, Drachma and the whole of the Eastern Desert will now be a part of the new United States of Amestricia. It will be the land of free.

"Also, I will be creating a group that various countries can join to receive economic benefits in terms of ease of doing business and many more things. It will be called the Economical Union. However, this union will only exist for 25 years because in the long term it won't be very much helpful. Any questions?" Alexander asked.

General Grumman spoke, "You haven't even become the Fuhrer yet, how are you going to implement these?"

"What do you mean? Do you want to become the fuhrer? Okay, I am ready to give up my position if you can guarantee me that you will be able to uplift the country and not just keep it as it was before. Can you guarantee there will be no more corruption?" Alexander inquired.

*Cough*

"Can you, promise that?" Grumman asked back.

"Haha, 100 per cent. I can even give it to you in writing with my signatures. Can you also do it?" Alexander asked.

This shut up everyone in the room. Hohenheim and Mustang just sighed at that. They knew Alexander was a god so how can they question him?

"Good, now, Mustang, you are promoted to become the General of the Army. You will be handling the Amestris' army under me. You will be the highest military rank but also my subordinate. From now on, the Fuhrer will not be the head of state, it will be the President." He announced. Of course, Mustang was happy with this promotion.

"General Armstrong, you will be the head of Internal Affairs, meaning that you will be taking care of all the civilian problems occurring in the country.

General Grumman, you will be retiring. General Hughes, you will first go to your home and hug your daughter and then head the Department of Foreign Affairs. Your duty is to create friendly ties with other countries around the world." He commanded.

Hughes saluted and spoke, "Sir, can I complete the first task right now?"

Alexander chuckled, "Hah, yes, you may go home and hug your family."

Hughes only needed that and he vanished from the spot. So, Alexander continued.

"Dobby, as always, you will be my right hand as the Vice President. Iroh, you will be heading the agriculture department. Your job is to eradicate hunger from the world.

"Leonidas, you will be the head of finance and economics. Ah, my dear wife, you will be the head of the Department of Health. I believe you know what you need to do. Riza Hawkeye, you are promoted to the rank of Colonel and are to be a direct subordinate of Mustang." Alexander winked at Riza while saying that and he wasn't even trying to hide the wink, making her turn a bit red.

"I guess that's it," Alexander concluded.

*Cough*

Ragnarok coughed loudly. Alexander was also messing around, "Yes yes, Ragnarok will be the head of the Department of Mining and Industry. Your job is to complete the material requirements of the USA's budding manufacturing industry."

Ragnarok smiled happily. Then, Alexander looked at Hohenheim.

"You, you have lived a life of sorrow all this while. I will release all souls trapped in you and also give you another 50 years of life. Your job is to live with your sons, see them get married and play with your grandsons." Alexander told him.

Hohenheim was thinking that he would be dying soon but this was a huge change. He always wanted to find a cure for himself so he could turn human again and grow old with his family. Finally, now he will be able to do that.

He fell on his knees as if his legs lost power. Edward and Alphonse quickly rushed to hold him.

"DAD! are you okay?" Alphonse asked worriedly.

Hohenheim lifted his head and there was a smile. "I am fine, my sons. In fact, I am happy."

After that, Alexander released all the souls trapped inside him as he did with the Dwarf. But, surprisingly, the souls thanked Hohenheim for treating them so nicely before disappearing.

Once done, Alexander patted Hohenheim's shoulder. "Welcome back to being a mortal."

Hohenheim smiled and stood up, "Thank you for blessing me."

This was the first time that someone was happy to become a mortal. Normally it was the other way around. Alexander chuckled at that. "Haha, go now, go with your sons to the home where you never got to live happily."

"SO, WHEN ARE YOU GETTING MARRIED WITH WINRY?" Ajax suddenly asked Edward.

This changed the emotional and depressed mood of the room to full of laughter. Edward turned red and ran after Ajax. "YOU LITTLE BRAT."
