Yafada paid no heed to Ian's subtle sarcasm, smiling as he shook his head, "Do you know about special economic zones? South Ridge, Harrison Port, Xiawei Territory can all be special economic zones for Canaan Moore and The Empire's maritime trade... This is our sincerity."
"And you, as the most crucial node, will become the most powerful person in South Ridge, whether your benefactor Viscount Grant or your immediate superior Marquis Barton, they will gradually find themselves beneath you..."
"There is no need for them to be beneath." Ian sneered, "Speaker, do you truly believe I need to utilize any means or leverage any power for others to heed my words? That is merely the thought process for the most vulgar, those who can only resort to violence and political maneuvering."
"But I am the Prophet."
"I hold the future in my hands."
"This is more terrifying than any power, more enticing than any hope."
