System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1181 - 323: Killing Bishop Simo (10,000 Words) (2)

"Making Sir Ludovico the new leader will surely ensure the safety of Kakasong City!"

Listening to Harry Cohen’s praise, the burly middle-aged man Ludovico Dons sat nearby.

Subconsciously straightened his bent body, enjoying the attention of everyone’s gaze.

Before Ludovico could speak.

Simo’s agreeing words rang out in the conference room.

"Haha, just as you said, Sir Ludovico indeed has strong abilities."

"Whether in military strategy or commanding soldiers..."

Ludovico’s eyebrows raised, his heart filled with pride.

However.

Simo shifted the tone of his praise: "But..."

Ludovico’s eyebrows immediately furrowed, squinting his eyes, looking at Simo at the head seat.

Simo naturally felt Ludovico’s unfriendly gaze.

But he didn’t mind at all, instead responding with a gentle smile.

Simo continued, "However, due to Sir Ludovico’s bloodthirsty and indulgent nature, his reputation is tarnished."

"I think if Sir Ludovico becomes the new leader of Kakasong City, it will incite resistance among the residents..."

Ludovico, who had been glaring at Simo, quickly withdrew his gaze, an embarrassed look appearing on his face.

The others seated on the wooden chairs heard this, their expressions varied.

Some with playfulness, some with smiles, some shaking their heads...

As the upper-class people of Kakasong City, they naturally knew what kind of person Sir Ludovico was.

Not a single person cast a look of disdain towards Ludovico.

Because they were no different from Sir Ludovico.

The only difference was.

They did not act as ostentatiously as Sir Ludovico.

Simo’s gaze swept over everyone’s faces again, smiling as he asked.

"Gentlemen, is there anyone more suitable?"

Listening to Simo’s inquiry, the group exchanged glances, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Jill Durant stood up again and spoke to the crowd.

"I have always believed that Bishop Semo is the most suitable candidate!"

Simo quickly waved his hand, humbly saying.

"Mr. Gill, perhaps because of my position as the Church Bishop, you hold me in extreme reverence and admiration."

"But what we are discussing now is the new leader of Kakasong City..."

"Everything should be based on the intentions and ideas of those present."

"We must not be biased because of my position!"

Hearing the harmonious words between the two.

Those seated at the conference table squinted their eyes, their expressions becoming complex.

Only now did they finally understand.

What discussion about Kakasong City’s safety.

What choice of a new leader for Kakasong City.

All of this was merely a setup by Simo to become the leader of Kakasong City!

Seeing that everyone had stopped debating, Simo asked.

"Gentlemen, since the discussion is over, shall we start expressing our stances?"

"There are twelve people participating in this meeting."

"Free nobility, wealthy merchants, workshop masters, and talents from various fields..."

"Each of you can name the person you believe has the ability and is capable of being Kakasong City’s new leader."

"As long as they are suitable, they can become the new leader!"

The people seated on the wooden chairs remained silent.

Simo smiled slightly and said, "Since none of you have a more suitable candidate to recommend."

"Then I, Simo Tucker, would like to nominate myself as the new leader of Kakasong City."

"What do you all think?"

Listening to Simo’s words.

Ludovico and the others squinted their eyes, with a few slightly flaring their nostrils and letting out a faint snort.

As expected.

Just as they had guessed.

Simo, late at night, arranged for the clergy to go to their homes and gather them here.

All the elaborate discussions were ultimately for Simo to become the new leader of Kakasong City!

Feeling Simo’s scanning gaze fall on him, Jill quickly responded.

"I have always believed that Bishop Semo is the most qualified to be the new leader of Kakasong City!"

"I believe this without a doubt!"

Simo nodded contentedly, without saying a word.

He turned his gaze to the wealthy merchant sitting across from Jill.

Under Simo’s pressured gaze, the merchant hesitated in his words.

"I...I have no objection..."

Simo nodded slightly in response.

Then turned his gaze to Sir Ludovico.

Ludovico frowned, glancing at the people on either side of him, but no one spoke.

Ludovico knew that if he did not express his stance, Simo would not let him leave easily!

Feeling the pressure, Ludovico slightly opened his mouth.

"I have no objection either!"

As Ludovico’s words fell.

One after another, responses came from everyone seated.

"I second it."

"I have no objection!"

"I agree!"

"..."

Watching everyone express their stances, the warm smile on Simo’s face grew as he nodded in response.

"Thank you."

"Thank you all for your support!"

"One point I want to clarify in advance."

"I, Simo Tucker, have become the new leader of Kakasong City."

"But any decisions made in the future will be conducted like this meeting, after discussion and expression by you gentlemen."

"With an approval rate of over half, ensuring it meets the interests of the majority, will it be executed!"

Hearing Simo’s words, the crowd, initially tense, felt a slight relief.
