2253 Take Over Marsh East Palace?

At that moment, Third Born continued to speak frantically. “Second Sister, that Dictator is called Ten Thousand Source!”

Second Born’s heart skipped a beat, and her blood pressure shot up. She could hear her heart pounding in her head as she thought, What? Ten Thousand Source! Its name has the word ‘source’ in it!

Second Born had been completely composed a moment ago. But after hearing the name Ten Thousand Source, Second Born completely lost her cool.

For a Dictator to be alive after including the word ‘source’ in its name, it meant that this Dictator had to be stronger than others and might have even passed the feeble period after entering the Turning Wheel Realm.

Regular Dictators would not be able to stand up to such a Dictator.

This Dictator was highly likely to ruin her plan or even rob her of her rewards.

Would this Dictator come to kill her and turn her into a collectible source totem?

Second Born had not had an easy time reaching where she currently was. She did not want all of her effort to culminate in her becoming a toy of others.

As such, Second Born decided to hide during the duration of the Banquet of Everything. She would not act even if Dictator Everything turned up.

With that thought, Second Born tore the name list and said, “Third Sister, with a Dictator with the word ‘source’ in its name attending the Banquet of Everything, there is sure to be trouble! I don’t have much experience organizing labor, so I think it’s best to leave this task to First Sister! Let’s bring it up once First Sister arrives so she can make a decision! I will take this time to go into seclusion to increase my power!”

At that moment, Third Born felt as though she finally understood Second Born.

She had been confused through Second Born’s entire interaction with the Apostles from the Marsh East Palace.

Although Third Born was not skilled at hiding her emotions, she was not simple-minded either.

After being an Apostle for thousands of years, even the purest jade would eventually become stained.

Third Born never turned her scheming mind onto her sisters because they were the closest lifeforms to her.

But ever since the first time she sensed that something was off with Second Born, Third Born had been looking for abnormalities.

Third Born had clearly heard Second Born refer to Dictator Ten Thousand Source as ‘he’.

In the marsh world, due to differences in life ranks, the way that lifeforms of different life ranks addressed each other was also different.

Using gender pronouns did not only refer to gender. Only lifeforms of the same life rank could use them with each other.

It was strange for Second Born to address a Dictator in such a way, regardless of whether the Dictator had the word ‘source’ in its name!

Third Born forcefully suppressed her feelings of perplexity.

“Second Sister, this is a serious matter! The attendance of this Dictator could likely attract attendance by more Dictators! I’ll go and let First Sister know now. You stay here and hold down the fort!”

But now, Second Born’s mind was fully focused on the Dictator called ‘Ten Thousand Source’. Hence, she did not detect that Third Born’s attitude toward her had changed.

Second Born casually replied, “Go and inform First Sister! Nothing will go wrong with me here! You can take all the subordinates and be careful on the way.”

Third Born was shocked when she heard what Second Born said, as she could tell that Second Born was showing concern for her.

But eventually, Third Born still decided to disregard this sentimental moment and tell First Born about Second Born’s peculiarness.

Affection could never beat out faith in the marsh world.

This was the law that had ruled over the world for billions of years, and the entire system of this world was built around this law.

In actuality, Second Born wanted Third Born to go to First Born.

Second Born had long been prepared for First Born to suspect her.

After Third Born passed on the message that Second Born was leaving the final decision of the labor organization to First Born, the latter should set a significant portion of her suspicions to rest.

However, Second Born did not expect that Third Born would pick up her careless address of a Dictator.

Third Born and Second Born both lived in the Marsh East Circle but were not considered bigshots in the Marsh East Circle. The real bigshots were the Apostles who had presided over Marsh East Palace for a long time.

The veteran Apostles from Marsh East Palace had split opinions about the Dictator who was coming.

Some of them hoped that given the Marsh East Circle’s current lack of Dictators, this Dictator of unknown origin would choose to stay in Marsh East Palace. Otherwise, the Marsh East Circle would only deteriorate even more with the continued absence of a Dictator.

The other group of Apostles did not agree with this idea. Although there were no Dictators in Marsh East Circle now, it enabled these veteran Dictators to gain extremely strong speaking authority. If a real Dictator took over Marsh East Palace, their positions would change from decision-makers to followers or even servants.

These Apostles had long lost their edge after being corrupted by greed over time. Now, they were like elderly lions who only wanted to spend their days taking advantage of their positions.

While the veteran Apostles were arguing vehemently, Star Splendor said in almost a giggly voice, “I don’t think we should be talking about whether this Dictator should be allowed to take over Marsh East Palace, but how we can dissuade this Dictator if it does decide to do so!”

Star Splendor’s words caused the fighting to halt, and the entire scene fell silent.

Who could dissuade a Dictator with the word ‘source’ in its name if it wanted to take over Marsh East Palace? This feat was so impossible that it was almost laughable.

Star Splendor’s words made this clear to the Apostles who had been fighting. They suddenly felt as though they were as helpless as ants trying to fight an elephant.
