“These two can’t be serious. They know that the Severin is going to be the governor, and yet they’re


    bold enough to say such a thing?”


    “They probably think that they had a good chance of being appointed to the position, so they’re


    unhappy that Severin took the chance away from them. Why else would they be so bold as to question


    a war god like that?”


    The other mayors, whose chances of being appointed were very slim to begin with, started to whisper


    softly when they saw how brave Yacob and Regan were in standing up and saying such a thing.


    “Unsuitable?” Calum’s face soured, and he was obviously a little unhappy. “Who do you think is


    suitable then?”


    Calum’s petnt expression left both Yacob and Regan trembling in fright. However, when they


    thought about how they might be targeted-perhaps even killed-if Severin became the governor, they


    decided that they had no choice but to step forth.


    Regan gritted his teeth. “Our main objection is that Mister Severin isn’t the mayor. Hasn’t the practice.


    been to select governors from among the mayors? At least, that’s the case in about nine out of ten


    appointments.”


    Calum retorted with a cold smile. “Are you implying that Ick the authority to choose the governor?


    You said yourself that the governors are selected from the mayors in nine out of ten appointments.


    Can’t this appointment be a ‘one-out-of-ten’ situation?” Calum then added in a firm tone, “This matter is


    settled. If anyone dares to question my decision; then they will have to take it up against me. I will not


    spare that person’s life, nor the lives of his family!”


    Everyone gasped when he heard that. Judging from Calum’s response, the rtionship between


    Calum and Severin was extraordinarily good. Had that not been the case, Calum would never have


    made such a threat to the other mayors just to ensure that Severin was appointed as the governor.


    Then again, if everyone knew that Calum was Severin’s apprentice, they would all be able to


    understand why he would be so angry. It was undoubtedly a ma*sive disrespect to him when he was


    questioned by several mayors in front of his master.


    Severin smiled slightly. Once he arrived on stage and took the token, he said to everyone, “Some


    people here don’t seem too keen on my appointment as the governor. Does anyone else have any


    objection aside from the mayors of Namvail and Yusky?”


    Everyone gasped audibly when they heard that and were shocked by Severin’s act of singling out the


    two cities. ‘Could this be a grudge?’ they wondered. ‘Will he target them in the future?”


    None of the mayors dared to voice out any objection.

    One guy even took a step forward and expressed his loyalty, “I, mayor of Nwin, epted the


    appointment wholeheartedly. It has been decided by our esteemed war god, and there is nothing for us


    to object to. We trust in his decision, and we are sure that he has his reasons for doing so!”


    “Indeed, he’s a young and handsome man, and I believe that he has the capabilities to excel in various


    aspects. Were that not the case, he would never have received the blessing of a war god. I, from


    Redwall, fully agree too!” One man stood up without hesitation and ttered Severin, but he was not


    that good with words and so his ttery was very much obvious to everyone there.
