This was not Izla Hood's first visit to the governor's palace, nor was it his first time witnessing a new master upon the governor's throne.
Yet, as he came to meet with the governor this time, he was still very nervous.
It was his last chance to save his political future.
Originally, he didn't even have this opportunity.
His background was rather humble, but by some stroke of luck, he was noticed by someone important. With genuine capability, he began by working for a notable figure in the Lower Nest District and delivered a commendable performance that brought him into the government system. Later, he had the opportunity to further his education at an upper-district academy in Mingyan City, and when he returned, he was a mid-level official.
In theory, that was about as high as someone of modest origin could hope to climb in life.
