The Author's POV

Chapter 683

Ding—! Ding—!

The ringing on Kevin's phone didn't stop, and soon he was bombarded with messages.

There were multiple people making attempts to get in touch with him, and each of their reports included new developments on the situation outside.

Kevin continued to work on the files that were in front of him while he sat in his chair and ignored the calls that came in.

It wasn't until Emma hurriedly entered the room that he finally looked up and took his eyes away from the papers in front of him.

"What is it?"

"What do you mean what is it?"

Emma stared at him with a look of complete and utter bewilderment on her face. She approached him and slammed the tablet she was holding down on the table in front of her.

"Did you not receive the reports? All the four great cities have been taken over!"

Emma exclaimed.

"It hasn't even been a couple of days, and yet, we've already lost so much ground! By now, everyone has already started doubting your capabilities."

"Let them."

Kevin replied, his voice sounding unconcerned.

His reaction made Emma extremely confused.

"What's going on? Why are not worried about what is happening?"

Setting the pen down, Kevin reclined on his chair.

"Emma, if there is one thing that you don't have to worry about, it's my position as the alliance leader."

Kevin didn't become the alliance leader for no reason.

He had provided each of the top executives with benefits that were enticing enough for them to support him in the election.

No one would be able to remove him from his position unless they were on the verge of complete collapse.

No one.

"No one will be able to take it away from me for the time being. What is occurring is beyond the expectations of everyone present. Who would have imagined that the Monolith would sacrifice four of its most senior executives in order to conquer the four cities?"

This was outside any realm of Kevin's imagination.

Never before had he witnessed the Monolith give up four pillars of their forces in exchange for the control of a few major cities.
