Prime Minister Ulysses Taylor had been in power for nineteen years. His tenure had surpassed that of Light, the kingdom's second prime minister, making him a living legend.
With the prime minister's term now extended to fifteen years, and the king having granted him permission to serve another term, every official was certain that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, he might govern the kingdom for forty-six years.
He might even receive special permission from the king to serve a third term, adding another fifteen years and bringing his tenure to a full sixty-one years.
But Ulysses didn't see it that way. He planned to step down when this term ended. After all, keeping the people below him from advancing for thirty years wasn't right. Shouldn't he give the opportunity to the new generation—those over 180 years old, in their prime and full of vigor?
Besides, according to the kingdom's customs, even after a prime minister stepped down, capable ones were often brought out of retirement to serve as high-ranking officials in other fields.
That was what Ulysses had in mind. Rus Wang, however, had other plans.

A god-tier leader without a single negative trait? If I don't get you to Titled Douluo so you can work overtime, I'll spell my name Rus Wang backward.
"Hm?"
In the office of the Prime Minister's Residence (the King's Palace), Ulysses had finished a cup of coffee after dinner and gone for a walk. He had just sat back down when he noticed the Communication Book between him and King Rus Wang start to vibrate.
"What does His Majesty the King want to tell me?"
