TO THE COMMONER SECT

As he decided to start the journey of a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, he said,"If I use my insane stats, I'd be a universal threat. So let me lock my stats and use my editor skill on my phone to set my desired stats."He took out his smartphone and edited his system to a genius configuration with a 50% increase—just enough not to raise any eyebrows."Let me first go to the Commoner Sect," he decided.

Choosing to travel manually, he ordered his high-tech magic power bike with an unlimited fuel capacity that adjusted depending on the terrain. The bike boasted insane speed and could be driven either by AI or manually. Knowing himself well, Leo opted for manual mode. He roared its engines and took off toward the Commoner Sect. It only took him a day—thanks to his cruise speed of Mach 10, in case you didn't know.

He approached the gates of the Commoner Sect, and the soldiers were terrified of his unknown device. As he pulled up, he said,"Let me through."Although the soldiers were frightened, they tried to show some authority by asking,"What's your name, good sir?"He answered,"My name is Leonard."The soldiers replied,"I'm sorry, sir, but you can't go in. I'm afraid you will terrify our citizens."Leonard responded,"No problem."He hopped back on his bike and roared the engines; the soldiers, realizing they were facing a beast on wheels, reluctantly let him in.

Once inside, he drove straight to the King of the Commoners, knowing full well that this king was greedy and cared only for himself—embezzling continental funds and enriching himself at the expense of his citizens. Leo planned to change the power dynamic. Not wanting to disrupt business flow, he glided on his bike and flew to the Commoner King's palace in half a day—what would normally take four months since the palace was at the center of the city.

The guards tried to stop him, saying,"Sorry, sir, you don't have a pass to enter here."But Leo was undeterred. He ordered ten bodyguard humanoid robots to appear. They were all dressed in black suits, shades, shoes, and earbuds. Though unharmed, their equipment was high-tech, and the robots could materialize any weapon with a thought. When the robots arrived, the soldiers and guards trembled in fear. Noticing their reaction, Leo instructed his bodyguards to knock them out. The robots went in, and all the soldiers and guards were knocked out cold.

"Now, no more jokes," Leo declared as he entered the palace.The king was shocked and terrified to see a child guarded by bodyguards."What are you doing here, boy? You're supposed to be in an academy or something," the king laughed as he called his guards to remove the "trash."When no response came, he demanded,"What have you done with my guards?"

Leo then asked one of his bodyguards to speak on his behalf using a neural link. The first bodyguard—the one who looked the most imposing—spoke:"King, we know you have been causing a lot of trouble lately, and in the interest of my master, you must either cooperate with us or be evicted from your throne."

The king stammered,"Who are you that I should cower in fear and cooperate with you?"

The first guard replied,"I guess we'll go with the second option,"and began to flare up his aura as he stepped toward the king and cracked his knuckles. The king felt chills run down his spine, realizing the guard wasn't joking. He began pleading,"I will cooperate!"

The bodyguard sneered,"Wow, you guys really are something. You talk tough at first, but when faced with a threat that can take your life, you become obedient. Your stupidity knows no bounds."Grabbing the king by his robe, the guard said,"If not for my master, I would have sent you to Leonidas."

The king begged,"I will do anything!"

"Well," Leo said,"here's something I need you to do for me."He produced a deed and said,"Sign it."The king was optimistic at first, but when the first bodyguard threatened him, he signed it hastily.

"Well done. Now, you can leave the kingdom. All your money—stolen or hidden—will be doubled. I don't want to see you in the Commoner Sect again."

The second bodyguard brought out a briefcase and handed it to the king, instructing him to vacate"my master's premises."The third and fourth bodyguards personally dragged him out, while the fifth and sixth bodyguards provided transportation for the king and his family. They were escorted on a mini-plane, and within one hour, they landed in the desert. The bodyguards told them to open the briefcase—it contained everything they would need."Happy retirement," they said as they left.

The scene then shifted back to Leo, who addressed the commoners:"Your kind abandoned you and left the throne. I will take the throne and promise to elevate the Commoner Sect to great heights."The crowd cheered.

Leo then decided to invite 100 of his top researchers, economists, AI experts, and specialists in weapons and technology. He also acquired one of his own factories."Now, it's time to restore this sect to its highest glory."

Although other nobles in the Commoner Sect planned to overthrow him, Leo was not worried. He deployed one of his many intimidation robots, and the coup they were planning was disbanded.

"What is the best thing this place needs?" Leo asked."It needs electricity."Using his factory, he built highly advanced power stations and transformers with solar and lunar panels, transporting and setting them up. Three months later, the entire Commoner Sect was fully integrated with electricity.

He then decided to construct advanced housing for the people. His factory produced these high-tech houses, replacing the old ones over another three months. Rumors soon spread that the Noble and Middle-Class Sects were planning to uncover and steal the hidden technologies now wielded by the Commoner Sect.

The scene shifted back to Leo, who smiled menacingly and said,"Humor me and come see what you won't see in your lifetime."The ribits (his robotic aides) whispered among themselves,"I think Master is starting to behave like a barbarian. Well, if he gets out of hand, we'll remind him that he is an advanced digital realm king, so he should stop fooling himself."Meanwhile, a particular noble—an echo from Leo's past—was preparing to appear, as his past was coming back to bite him.
