Xia Jia smiled silently.
Liu stiffened his neck and said, "I recorded it, so what! That's Lady Livilia! Her dance moves are unique! It's something that can be taken back to the holy land of elves and worshipped!"
"Yes, yes. You are the only one who has something like this. How about thanking me?"
"Bah! You're so smart." Liu blushed again: "Thank you or something, I'll let you eat Dorayaki, okay?"
"Can I have an ice-skinned Daifuku?"
"You wish!" Liu grabbed Xia Jia's ear...
"No, if that doesn't work, then..."
"no!"
……
The performance lasted 80 minutes. When everyone was catching their breath, the support rates of the five king-chosen candidates appeared above them.
As the hidden numbers are revealed bit by bit.
Priscilla: 1500 million votes.
Anna: 5000 million votes.
Kurt: 1.8 million votes.
Firut: 2.33 million votes.
This was an election that included all citizens, and surprisingly, Firut surpassed everyone and stood at the top of all the current candidates.
"Tsk, come on, the person who least wants to be king ends up being the king, what a joke." Priscilla muttered gloomily.
Anna looked indifferent.
Kulxiu clenched his fist and secretly said what a pity:
"I should have practiced my dance steps more."
She realized that the final performance accounted for a large proportion and could attract the support of many passers-by fans.
Everyone had forgotten Emilia.
After all, he is a half-demon, so he probably doesn't even have a single vote, so I just don't show it...
As they quietly waited for Xia Jia to come out and announce the results...
A light fell on Emilia.
The host's passionate voice sounded from the microphone:
"Contestant No. 20.98: Emilia: billion votes. The most votes! Congratulations to our Emilia!"
"Eh?"
When the spotlight was on Emilia, drops of sweat slid down her cheeks. On the huge screen, the sweat on her face could be clearly seen.
Emilia looked around blankly, unable to believe what she heard.
"Me? 20 billion? That's a lot!"
Emilia never cared about her fans. In her opinion, as long as she did her best, that was enough. Originally, she only hoped to have 100 fans, but she didn't expect to have 20 billion fans.
"Iwakuni...are there so many people?" Krush was incredulous.
"Unbelievable. Just a half-demon? How did she do it!" Priscilla's eyes widened.
"But that's 20 billion, which is 40 times of mine. Even if there is some water in the gap, so what?" Anna looked at the cheering audience in front of her.
In this venue alone, at least 80% of the people support Emilia.
As a businessman, she is very good at seeing the whole picture.
“Two billion…” Firut murmured, “No wonder the Beggars’ Sect alone has gathered 20 million members. It turns out that it’s not that the kingdom is unkind, but that there are too many people. Among 800 people, there is only one homeless person. This can be considered a prosperous era, right?”
Firut did not realize the seriousness of the problem. Perhaps among these homeless people, there was a tycoon who was once worth hundreds of billions, or a demon king from another world?
Yes, what does 20 billion mean? Kurxiu thought that the previous fan numbers were mostly exaggerated. If Oiwa had 100 million fans, it would be a superpower.
did not expect……
She didn't even deny the possibility that Xia Jia cheated. What she cared about was that there were really so many people?
The total number is close to 30 billion. If such a large number were turned into soldiers, how terrifying would that be?
For the first time, Crusch realized that dragons weren't the only threat to this country.
Under this premise, even if Xia Jia wanted to operate behind the scenes, what objections could they have?
Connections are also an important asset for becoming a king.
But for Emilia...
"20……"
"Emilia...your kindness and innocence have conquered the hearts of 80% of the people in Oiwa. You know what this means, right?" Shaka walked onto the stage with a smile.
He and Parker each held Emilia's hand and raised it up:
"Let us give our sincerest cheers to the new king of Lugnica!"
"Roar--------"
This password was spread across the country through the Internet at the same time!
A unified cry came from thousands of homes and reached Emilia's heart.
“Emilia! Emilia! Emilia!…”
For the first time, she realized that she was not a hated half-demon, but a popular and lovable half-elf.
The recognition of 20 billion people completely overwhelmed the re0 world, which had a total population of only tens of millions.
“Emilia is not a gold coin. It’s impossible for everyone to like her. As it turns out, you, Emilia, are almost more popular than gold coins.” Parker sat on Emilia’s shoulder and teased.
"Hey!" Emilia covered her mouth, tears welling up in her eyes.
Xia Jia: "From today on, Emilia is also a bad woman who is burdened with 20 billion emotional debts."
"Bah! No way! You're a bad guy!"
Chapter 692: The "Comic" that became a peerless divine skill (6k)
The first King Selection ended with Emilia's crushing victory.
After the performance, Xia Jia gathered five people again and announced something:
"Emilia's term is one year, and we will restart the competition every year, so please don't give up what you have learned in this month, and keep working hard in the future. I believe that you will be the next center to debut."
Originally, Krush and the others had already accepted their fate, but after hearing this, their fighting spirit was rekindled.
"Can the king still take turns?"
"Why not?" Xia Jia said as a matter of course: "The capable ones are promoted and the weak ones are demoted. Keeping the leaders in the best condition at all times and encouraging competition is the healthy principle for the development of the kingdom. Your bloodline theory is outdated."
The current environment of Lugnica is very favorable. All the royal family members have died, leaving only Firut, who is suspected of royal blood. In this situation, changing the feudal system and entering a new stage is the best choice.
"So, everyone, keep working hard in the future. I'm looking forward to your performance." Xia Jia smiled wickedly.
……
After seeing off the other four chosen kings, Emilia bowed once more:
"Thank you very much, Mr. Shaka. Even if it's only for one year, I'm very satisfied."
Xia Jia said, "You're welcome. Didn't I say that? This is all your own hard work. It has nothing to do with me. I don't have the ability to get 20 billion votes for you. This is no different from buying off the whole country. I can't do it."
Shi Yu savoured the idea: "Don't think too highly of this guy. There are many benefits to what he has done. Even though it's only one year, given the current situation, your position will be unshakable within three years."
"Hmm?" Emilia tilted her head, asking for advice humbly.
Shi Yu looked at the innocent and romantic little girl, glanced at the malicious Xia Jia, and said:
"You haven't figured out what 20 billion means. You are 10 times behind the second place. This is not the difference between 10 and 1. The unit is 18 million. The gap is billion. Even if there is a large-scale loss of fans in the past three years, your advantage will still be unshakable after it is divided among the other four people."
Shiyu crossed her legs:
"Even if the elves' blessing disappears after three years, even if other kings choose to win by chance, it will be difficult to implement the subsequent decrees within a year. Judging from the five kings choose to win in Lugnica, when the next king takes office, the decrees being implemented by the previous king will most likely be abolished, which is equivalent to doing nothing for a year."
"In this way, Lugnica will be in a state of stagnation for a long time, which is beneficial to all of us here."
"And if we want to break this vicious cycle, we must let you, Emilia, come on stage."
After hearing Shiyu's explanation, even Xia Jia was shocked: "Am I so strong? Have you already planned this?"
"Isn't this your own plan?"
Xia Jia scratched his head and said, "I don't know. I just want to hold the World Meng once a year. Next time, let Rimuru and the others participate. Let them allocate resources according to their rankings."
Shiyu: “…”
Seeing Shiyu frustrated, Xia Jia comforted her, "Not bad, Xia Laofei. You have a keen sense of smell. Do you want to be my secretary?"
"Is your secretary serious?"
"Do you want it to be serious?"
……
Xia Jia really wanted a secretary to handle the trivial matters. He certainly couldn't handle such a large diplomatic business by himself, so recruiting talents from abroad was inevitable.
For example... Miss Mishima.
At first, Xia Jia wanted her to take on the job temporarily, but after discovering that Shiyu had talent in this area, he mentioned it casually.
……
in short.
The vacation that lasted more than a month was temporarily over, and Livilia reluctantly went back with a set of solar-powered e-books full of books.
Emilia and the five chosen ones also returned to Lugnica.
Compared to before, they still have many succession ceremonies to complete when they return to Lugnica.
First of all, there are the people's problems. A half-demon becoming king will inevitably cause some disputes. Crusch and others will be responsible for solving this.
The legitimacy of the first royal election must be maintained in preparation for them to take over next year.
However, the rebuttal from the people waiting for Krush and the others seemed much weaker than expected.
When they learned that one of Emilia's retainers had single-handedly defeated five archbishops of sin, combined with the achievements of the three great beasts, they didn't know what to say for a moment.
……
One year after Emilia became king.
In Lugnika, which has been completely transformed by Red Heavy Industry, skyscrapers are lined up one after another.
The residents of the re0 world have already transitioned from the initial real estate boom to the era of house slaves. Thunder cars that can travel across the country in one day and ubiquitous industrial factories are everywhere.
With the hard work of Hexin Chamber of Commerce.
The common people had stable jobs that paid 996 hours a day, while the nobles indulged in more decadent material enjoyment.
The former wealthy people who were not so smart soon ran out of money and became ordinary people. However, there were also examples of commoners who seized the opportunity and became aristocrats.
The two-dimensional culture is not very popular in Lugnica.
Compared to some boring spiritual enjoyment, making money and running factories are the main themes nowadays.
One day, a down-and-out swordsman stood dejectedly in front of a deserted bookstore.
His name is Huoyan. He was originally a young nobleman, but his family fell into poverty because his father invested in the two-dimensional industry.
This bookstore was originally their family property, but now it is being used to pay off debts.
"Hey, stop staring blankly here. We've already tidied up the store. If you want the waste paper outside, take it away. If not, we'll burn it all together."
"Don't burn them. I'll find someone to take them away." Huo Yan looked at the comic books that had accompanied him for a year with reluctance. He took out his last savings and hired someone to move all the books to the house he rented.
The rental house, which was originally quite spacious, could no longer accommodate him in an instant.
But even if his family fell into poverty, he would not give up on life.
Huo Yan clenched the sword in his hand...
