One year of experiencing consequences.The vote was scheduled for noon. Every citizen would decide. Continue Chen's dictatorship or restore democracy. Simple choice. Clear question. Everything at stake.Chen addressed the realm one final time as dictator. "One year ago you chose this. Chose to let me decide everything. Chose efficiency over voice. Chose convenience over power.

Will step down immediately if you vote for democracy. The choice is yours. Completely yours. Choose wisely. Choose honestly. Choose what you truly want. Not what you think you should want. What you actually want."The voting took all day. Lines everywhere. Turnou
Chapter 142: Life After Gods
Year five hundred and fifty. Ten years since the True Gods left. Ten years of complete freedom. No observation. No judgment. No external pressure. Just humans governing themselves. Choosing democracy. Living free.It was harder than expected.For five centuries, people believed they were being tested. Believed they had to prove themselves. Believed gods watched everything. That belief created pressure. That pressure created vigilance. That vigilance maintained democracy.Now the pressure was gone. The gods were gone. No one watched. No one judged.
