Alina looked at Victoria with some interest.

She believed that after so many years of training, Victoria would definitely have her own opinion on this matter.

"Teacher Elina, I think both the imperial system and the church system are not good..."

After listening to Elena's words, Victoria thought about it seriously and then gave her own answer.

"I hope that the political system of this country is such that even the supreme emperor can still be restrained by a system, that is, to put shackles on the supreme leader."

After hearing what Victoria said, Elena was dumbfounded.

Although Victoria couldn't express her meaning accurately yet, Elena understood it very well.

This is constitutional monarchy.

For the first time, Victoria showed a political vision far ahead of her time.

Chapter 113: I Don’t Want the Position of Emperor

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I said? Sorry, teacher, this is indeed the most appropriate solution I can think of so far."

Seeing Elena's strange look, Victoria hesitated.

In fact, this plan was an idea she came up with temporarily after drawing lessons from the political systems of several races and the Alek Empire.

There are still many imperfections, and she is not too sure whether it conforms to the situation outside the domain.

Moreover, putting shackles on the supreme ruler seems a bit far-fetched no matter how you think about it.

Most importantly, in this world, strength is still the basis of speech. If the supreme ruler is very powerful, then who can check and restrain him?

Moreover, this plan has not been adopted by any force so far, and it can be said to be the first time it has appeared.

Victoria had no idea whether it would work or not.

So, when she saw Elina's incredible look, she subconsciously felt that she might have said something wrong.

"No, Victoria, to be honest, your idea is very good, but can you tell me how you came up with this plan? Or where did you get the inspiration from? As far as I know, there should be no force, country, or race that adopts such a political system at present."

After hearing what Victoria said, Elena shook her head repeatedly. She looked at her student with even more curiosity, and really wanted to know why Victoria came up with such a plan.

"It's actually very simple. I came up with this idea based on history, current realities, and the status outside the region."

"Take the Aleke Empire for example. In the early days of the country, the nobles were not all acting for their own selfish interests. Some of them also worked for the interests of the entire human race. So the reputation of the nobles was very good at the time, and it was very easy for them to gain the support of the common people."

"But as time went by, they began to deteriorate and decay, and now they have gradually become a cancer. I think Teacher Elina, you felt the most deeply when you were dealing with the Tara incident."

Victoria said, looking at Alina with a smile.

Elina nodded slightly. Yes, when she was in Tara, she could already feel that the human nobility was rotten to the core, and it was not something that could be changed by Philip's painless reforms and punishments.

However, what happened later in the Shenting Church was so outrageous that the dark side of the nobility was hidden.

But when they dealt with the Richard incident later, they could clearly feel that they were showing signs of returning to their old ways.

This shows that Philip's deterrent power has lost its effect.

"The reason why they behave like this is, in the final analysis, because power is not checked. What is the root of this? In my father's case, if the leader is not checked, then the people below will naturally act recklessly. But if even the supreme leader is restricted, then the nobles will be in awe and their behavior will be restrained."

"Unfortunately, the Aleike Empire has been established for a long time, and all resources are in the hands of the nobles. Even my father has to accommodate the nobles in some matters."

"If the reform is enforced, it will be detrimental to the unity of the human race, and civil war will inevitably break out."

Victoria said, shaking her head helplessly.

The Ailek Empire has been established for 10,000 years, which is almost as long as the rise of the human race. Over such a long period of time, the classes have long been locked, making it difficult for mobility to occur.

"So you thought of going outside the domain?"

Elina thought about it and asked out loud.

"That's right, teacher. The Outer Domain is different from the human race. The human race has been established for too long, while the Outer Domain has just ended the war and is still in ruins. At this time in the Outer Domain, there are no nobles to speak of, and no resource monopolists. Even Yas College, the best college in the Outer Domain, has a large number of refugees and children of ordinary people."

"This kind of plan can only be implemented in places like this."

Victoria nodded seriously. In today's world, there was no force or race that was suitable for her plan.

The best place is only the overseas area where a lot of work needs to be done.

"However, teacher, I know that even if this is the case, it still cannot prevent the formation of classes. Even outside the domain, after hundreds of years, nobles will slowly emerge. In order to maintain the status of their families, those nobles will naturally find ways to monopolize resources and form alliances with each other to monopolize the path to advancement and allow their children to have more resources."

"This kind of thing is bound to happen and cannot be stopped, so all I can do is try to limit their power from the beginning and establish a very complete monitoring system."

As Victoria spoke, her voice became more and more confident. She felt that perhaps she still had some problems with the details, but the general direction was definitely correct.

"You can't guarantee that your so-called supervisory system will not be in cahoots with the nobles in the future."

Elina's light words made Victoria stunned.

Yes, she placed all her hopes on the supervisory system, but she never thought that the supervisory system is also made up of people.

As long as one is a human being, there will be greed. Maybe it’s okay at the beginning.

But no one can guarantee what will happen over time.

"Victoria, you have always placed your hopes on the self-awareness of the nobility. Have you ever thought about abolishing the nobility?"

Alina smiled, but what she said surprised even Victoria.

"Cancel the nobility?!"

Victoria said in surprise.

"That's right. Abolish the nobility and separate the administrative, military, and judicial institutions. At the same time, change the selection criteria. It's not like before, where people are appointed and dismissed based solely on their abilities. At the same time, cancel the power of officials to recommend. Everything must be selected through fair and impartial examinations, just like the college's examinations."

Alina's words made Victoria fall into deep thought.

This method is not bad. The reason why the appointment and dismissal of officials in the Ailek Empire is controlled by the nobles is largely because the nobles have the power of recommendation.

And the people they recommend will generally be hired by His Majesty the Emperor.

Over time, a huge interest group will naturally form.

"Not only do I have to pass the exam, but I don't want the position of emperor. If one person holds all the power, it will inevitably lead to dictatorship. The best option is to disperse the power."

Alina's words completely shocked Victoria.

She didn't expect that her teacher was even more radical than her.

Chapter 114: The Committee's Opposition

"Teacher, forgive me for being blunt, but even if you make this decision, it may be difficult to implement in the end..."

Victoria was shocked at first, but soon returned to reality.

She found that although her teacher's ideas were good, the feasibility was not very good.

After all, in this world, individual strength is still the most important. If a leader is very powerful, how can anyone restrain him?

Of course, Victoria only said half of what she wanted to say, and she kept the other half hidden and didn't say it out loud.

"What you want to say is, for example, with my current strength and status, there is absolutely no one who can supervise and monitor me."

Elina looked at Victoria with a smile and said lightly what Victoria didn't dare to say.

"I'm sorry, teacher, but this is indeed what I think in my heart."

Victoria lowered her head humbly. No matter what, Elena was her teacher, and she really shouldn't have such thoughts.

"It's okay, Victoria. Your worries are justified. An individual who is too powerful will inevitably make the monitoring mechanism ineffective. For example, even if I let the committee monitor my actions, it will not be effective. The committee members dare not do such a thing."

Elina sighed, this was where the real trouble lay.

This is not Earth, so there is no way to directly copy Earth’s political system.

After all, on Earth, an individual's power is always limited, and a group of peasants gathered together can directly bring down the almighty emperor.

It is precisely because of this that the political system on Earth will continue to change, and those rulers will strive to find a balance point that is acceptable to both the ruling class and the civilians in order to maintain the long-term rule of the entire country.

However, not here.

Here, the ruler possesses extremely powerful individual military force.

Once an uprising or revolutionary movement really occurs, it will be ruthlessly suppressed.

After all, when a person's strength reaches the divine level, he can no longer be harmed by ordinary people.

Not to mention those temple-level and demigod-level strongmen.

To put it bluntly, these practitioners are completely different species from ordinary people. It is almost impossible to restrain them through a monitoring mechanism.

It is precisely because of this that, although the class contradictions within the Alekh Empire have clearly reached an outrageous level, the Alekh royal family and nobles can still maintain their ruling position.

"Teacher, maybe our thinking is too radical and too advanced."

“The solution you proposed may work while you are still here, but if you are gone, it is really difficult to guarantee that it will still work properly.”

After a long silence, Victoria spoke again.

After two rounds of discussions, she found that whether it was her own ideas or Teacher Elina's ideas, they would encounter a lot of trouble.

Maybe now that Teacher Elina is still here, she can ensure that her ideas are carried out.

But Teacher Elina cannot exist forever. If one day, when Teacher Elina leaves, the outside world may return to the old path of the Alek Empire.

"Victoria, we can't exist forever, or stay in Yas City or outside the domain forever. All we can do is try to create a good system at the beginning. As for future matters, we can only let future generations solve them."

Seeing Victoria's distressed expression, Elena laughed happily.

Yes, Victoria had reached a dead end and was getting stuck in a rut.

Victoria fantasized that there could be a system that could solve all problems once and for all and would last forever.

This is obviously a fantasy.

Any system has its limitations and timeliness. All she can guarantee is that as long as she serves as the mayor of Yas City, she can ensure the implementation of the system of separation of powers.

In fact, in Elina's mind, there is a higher-level social system, or it may be the highest system.

But Elina knew that such a system could not be fully implemented even on Earth, where productivity was highly developed.

Not to mention this world where polarization is extremely serious and productivity is low.

"Okay, don't worry about it. This is my specific idea about the political system. You can hand it over to the committee and let them organize professionals to discuss it and come up with a complete plan as quickly as possible."

As she spoke, Alina handed a document on the table to Victoria.

Alina said that this document contained specific ideas, but it was actually just a draft, and many of the ideas were only prototypes.

"Okay, sir, I will submit this document to the committee right away."

Victoria solemnly took the documents from Elena's hand and then turned and left.

"Huh, this is really troublesome."

Looking at Victoria's back, Elena breathed a sigh of relief.

She felt that if she did not have a vision that far exceeded this world, she would never be Victoria's opponent in politics.

However, the system of separation of powers is indeed the most suitable system that Elina has found for the city of Yas among many systems.

As for the supermodels with leadership strength, there is really no other way but to let the strongest possible people serve as Chief Justice and Committee Chairperson in the future.

Thinking of this, Elena continued to busy herself with her own things. In the afternoon, after she sent someone to deliver the specific agreement with Dragon Island to Langheris, she stretched her body and went back.

Next, she just had to wait for news from the committee.

What Alina didn't expect was that her proposal was actually opposed by the committee, including the students and experts from Yas College.

This was the first time the committee opposed Alina's proposal, and the reason was simple.

It is simply impossible to achieve and is too advanced for many people to accept.

Even Elina hadn't thought of this.

She looked at the thick stack of reports that the committee handed over to her after a whole week of discussion, and Elena was speechless.

She really didn't expect that the people on the committee would have such a violent reaction.

Some people even said directly that if City Lord Elena did not declare himself emperor, he would crash into his death in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

As for Victoria's proposal for constitutional monarchy, although many people also raised objections, the committee members were still able to accept Victoria's proposal compared to Elena's.

"As for it?"
