Kiran Pujari signing in as the Cabinet Minister of the empire and giving up his post as the Marshal was like a Magnitude 9 earthquake spreading across the empire.
"How could this happen? How did the Marshal accept it so readily?"
"These stupid politicians' schemes have worked really well, Damn!!!"
"The Marshal is being too kind-hearted even after being backstabbed. He should have at least taught some ministers a lesson."
The surprise was not only from the people but also from the commanders of the empire—Ramayya Senapathi, Narasimha Nayak, Yogendra Singh, Lachit Borphukan, Akhil, Sarvesh, and others.
