"Alliance leader? Not bad. Haha, I deserve this position."
After Dwayne, the Tarot Club's representative, and Emlyn White, the Sanguine's representative, both agreed that Loen's nobles should take charge of the Anti-George Alliance, Duke Negan, who had been made alliance leader, was quite satisfied.
Although they had been unable to deploy any angels this time, the forces they had gathered were the strongest.
Several people from Silver City wielding Sealed Artifacts, together with the King of the Five Seas and the Mysterious Queen, were enough to contend with angel-level power.
With the angel-level experts provided by the Tarot Club and the Sanguine as well, Negan had even developed the illusion that he could overthrow the Loen Royal Family.
Holding such tremendous power in his hands made him unconsciously swell with confidence.
Although some conservative nobles worried that the various factions might be trying to set up a figurehead, that possibility was completely dismissed.
After all, Silver City, the Pirate King, and the demigods under his command were indeed all forces on their side.
As long as they held the strongest power, they could attack when advancing and defend when retreating.
Even if they ultimately failed, they could still preserve themselves through force in the face of Loen's, or even the Three True God Churches', suppression.
After facing repeated assassination attempts and experiencing the hot-tempered old pigeon's no-show, Negan had come to believe that power was safest only when held in his own hands.
Now that he had become alliance leader because of the power under his control, the influence that seemed capable of overturning the Loen Royal Family enthralled him beyond escape.
Although the Pirate King's and Silver City's infiltration had been extremely secretive, there would inevitably be some disturbances when the conservatives finally mobilized the demigods loyal to them.
