They Hated Me in My First Life, But Now I Have the Love System

Chapter 378: Plans Fall Apart

The elder stepped back, signaling the crowning ceremony’s close. The main part of the coronation was complete.

But the evening was far from over.

The crowd erupted again, voices swelling in cheers and praise. The future had been declared, bright, uncertain, but full of promise.

Somto looked to his family, a smile breaking through his stoic mask. He was more than ready.

Somto stepped up to the podium, his eyes steady and calm as they scanned the sea of faces before him. The murmurs faded into silence; everyone leaned in, eager to hear the new king speak.

“My people, my family, honored guests from near and far, today marks not just the passing of a crown, but the beginning of a new chapter for our kingdom.”

He paused, voice firm but measured. “I have stood on battlefields, faced enemies who sought to break us, and survived by the strength of my convictions and the loyalty of my people. But here, today, my greatest battle is to govern with justice, compassion, and wisdom.”

Heads nodded slowly. Some faces held quiet anticipation; no one dared interrupt.

“Laws will be upheld, not to bind you, but to protect you. The weak will find shelter, the honest will find fairness, and the brave will find respect. I do not claim to be perfect, but I vow to listen, to learn, and to lead with honor.”

A few elders exchanged approving glances. The youngest guests whispered in awe, sensing the weight behind his words.

“Together, we will build a kingdom where every voice is heard, where every hand is valued, and where the future is brighter than the past.”
