The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 405: radan till i die

2 days later after the great battle.

After so long, the real situation of the battle was already more or less disseminated to the whole Radan republic. The captains hid nothing, they revealed everything that happened.

Of course, they left the sensitive parts behind.

In the end, the summary was that General Cable was the antagonist of the republic. He killed President Kai, created an identical robot to impersonate him, while he manipulated from the dark.

After the truth was revealed, the Presidents wife and children were all plunged into depression.

Everything happened before them. Realizing that the husband shes been spending nights with was a robot dealt a huge blow to the first lady, even more so for the children.

They were now kept in a special hospital where they were being attended to by a group of well-trained psychologists.

The republic couldn't recover from the damage dealt in a day, a month or even a year, but they would surely recover even if it was slow.

Today, on the 27th of December, Captain Drake took to the podium to address the whole republic.

All across the Radan republic, every privileged home switched on their television and was watching this. The unprivileged had access to the public projections to watch the hero of the republic.

As all lights and cameras focused on him, Captain Drake who was dressed in a black suit finally came out to address the republic.

Below the podium was filled to the brim with people. Soldiers, civilians, lawyers, doctors, engineers, politicians, every occupation had a representative on this day.

Listening to the loud applause that followed as he walked to the podium, Captain Drake felt a lot of thoughts going through his mind.

When he got there, he held the sound amplifier and paused.

He swept his eyes around the people before him. His eyes suddenly seemed to have gained radar vision, he felt like he could see every nook and cranny of the republic right now.

He clenched and unclenched his left fist. He had a speech all ready written for him, but in the end, he decided to abandon it.

A speech was not enough to pour out his heart, he wanted to address the Radan republic from the bottom of his heart.

Fellow citizens He paused.

Fellow brothers and sisters of Radan, a new dawn is before us.

2 days ago, on the 25th December, we decided to take matters into our own hands. We decided that it was over for the suffering and pain.

2 days ago, we recognized and decided to fight for our rights.

Our ancestors founded the Radan republic with the zealous motive to create a better environment for everyone to prosper and grow.

In recent years, we discovered that this zealous motive waned.

I still remember when I was still a toddler. My Grandfather, who was a soldier then always said to me, Radan till I die.

I took that phrase as I grew up, and just like him and my father, I joined the Radan army with the motive to create a better Radan for everyone.

That phrase was what gave me the courage to leave when I discovered that things were wrong. That phrase was what gave me the courage to rebel when I discovered that we already abandoned that zealous motive.

In this battle for freedom, I lost my wife and my only 2 sons in the process.

Despite all these, I never flinched.

The word kept on ringing in my heart, Radan till I die.

It is every parents wish to see their child grow up and prosper and have exploits better than they did, but this wish of ours was cut off by General Cable.

Seeing people die every day in the streets pained my heart, even more than the death of my sons did. Seeing citizens being exploited in poverty pricked my bone marrows.

Seeing children beg on the street left me rethinking my reason for existence.

Why? Because that is not how it should be.

Today, I pour my heart to you all and declare a new beginning for our country, our Radan.

Weve suffered enough, it needed to end thats why we stood.

I couldnt do it alone, I had allies. The Pendragon mercenary group recognized our plight and helped when things became too bad.

Well be forever indebted to them.

I dont want to dwell in the past, I want us to move ahead.

Our country fell, now we need to rebuild it. Those of us that can fight fought for it, now I want those that can build to help rebuild it.

Let us usher in a new era by our own efforts.

We have resources, let us make use of our resources. We have talent, let us make use of our talent.

2 months from now, well be having our first election after this independence.

Yes, 25th December is now our Independence Day.

Independence from the iron hooves of General Cable, independence from oppression, independence from suffering, poverty, and lack.

I am ready to die for Radan, and I wish every man can feel the same.

No man will build our country for us; we are the only ones who can and we should build it ourselves.

For the next 2 months, as we recover, the army will be in charge of helping any citizen in need till the next election day.

Dont stay at home, come out and vote for the ruler that you want.

For as long as I, Captain Drake remain alive, there will be no election fraud in Radan anymore.

Captain Drake paused, a little out of breath now. He wanted to continue but the people below suddenly erupted in rounds of applause.

The applause continued without pause, up to the extent where he forgot every other thing that he wanted to say.

Seeing this, a smile lit up his face and his eyes became moist at the same time. He gently cleaned his eyes with his right hand, clenched it into a fist before hitting it at his chest.

Radan till I die!
