People of District 1 were all either dead, captured,or injured. After the attack made by district 2, they were all fated to suffer, and that lasted for a long time until Yogev ordered his mages by dawn to gather all the survivors in front of the seventh king's palace.
His mages gathered all the people by the end of the day, and all of those who were present inside district one was forced to attend to that place to hear the new leader's speech.
People of districts 1, 2, 4, and 5 filled the field in front of the palace building, they were numerous and they all looked terrified of the next step that was going to happen .
People of district 1 were still traumatized by the attack and by their leader's death and lies, while people of district 5 were forced to bend their heads and join the union with district 2, people of district 4 were clueless about what happened but they kept silent when they saw the new unions .
Yogev went missing all day, his people searched for him when their mission ended but they couldn't find him. The last time he was seen it was where Heigl was captured.
After all the work that was done, his mage's control started to slip when he didn't show up.
Heigl was the only free person in the entire region, he didn't know that at least but Yogev told the mages to leave him alone .

When Yogev heard about his father's identity he felt troubled, he met Dakkar Lumas before, he talked to him several times however due to the rumors that spread around him about him being crazy he didn't want to be seen next to him.
But the past few days showed that the situation in Delwias Island was not normal, in fact, nothing was normal since the beginning however they were all blinded by the hopes of leveling up.
As Yogev failed the ascension so many times, he always imagined being trapped in this place forever like a nightmare.
The first thought that came to his mind when he left Heigl was that he needed to do something about his powers.
He went inside the forest and sat on the remains of a burned tree trying to think more about what he was going to do now.
' Being a leader to all of the districts is the only solution to keep peace inside the region, however, with my low powers, I feel like I am going to be replaced very soon with someone who acts just like Felix and I don't want that, not after I bend all my morals to get this.
Felix ruled them with his powers, and Chris and Rivok did it with their lies and fake hope.
I have to give these people something to believe, something to look for, something to feel relaxed "
Yogev started to wipe his face with his palm, he looked very tired after all he had done.
His mind was in mess with all of those endless theories and thoughts, when he acted with rage he felt more at ease, and now that he calmed down he knew that he made some mistakes that he couldn't even correct, and that he was alone after he lost the support of someone really important like Heigl.
' No wonder he was being anti-social, he lived his whole life trying to hide that fact, and that it was exposed he might feel very exhausted'
One of the mages found him there sitting alone hours later, so he approached him with a very confused face while saying:" Sir, we did as you told us but people started to act with disrespect after your disappearance, our people and the people of District 5 and 1 are very calm, but those of district 4 are acting as if we did a bad thing
" Then we should teach them a lesson, " Yogev said with a demonic smile on his face.
He was already blaming himself for what he has done because of his rage, and now because of his pride, he was going to make more.
He walked slowly as he was heading toward the palace where everyone was there waiting for him, he just wanted to act like a true leader to be respected among them, and he got that because when he walked there the aura around him scared all of them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm' Yeah, I should fake it, I should fake being powerful even if that means I am just a scammer 'He thought as he was walking to the front lines .
He heard cries everywhere, screams because of the pain and he felt like he went too far with his plan, yet he didn't admit it even to himself.
He reached the front while his face showed only rage as he said:
" I gathered you all here today to tell you that the rule of the seventh king in Delwias Island has officially ended the day they evacuated all the higher mages leaving us all here to face our extinction.
I don't blame them, people with low powers are not going to bring any value to them anyway
They left us here to die, to be exterminated but we somehow all survived, all of you knows what we had to go through to be here, earthquakes, volcano, floods, and the poor people of district 3 didn't even survive the white ash, we suffered to get here only to be treated like intruders by a maniac and his people "
When Yogev said those words people of district 1 started to show anger, and they wanted to argue with him but he didn't give them a chance, and he added:" Their leader told them that they are going to be selected by Emperium to level up, they were all acting like fools because of that lie, he implanted fake hopes inside of them and ruled them over it, we didn't even kill him, one of his people did.
He was one of the worst persons in this entire place and I am glad that he is no longer with us "
As he was about to say more, Yogev stopped when something hit his chest.
