Chapter 402: Two Birds With One Stone
The news of Hadi’s escape took the entire Country by surprise.

Rewards were placed for his head and those of the prisoners that were let go. However, the most amazing thing happened.

It was the fact that instead of hiding for his life, Hadi began his campaigns.

Hadi had always been good with words, with further evidence of the drug that he used, they were many people that started to carry rumors about Hadi being a god child.

Of course such rumors could not be supported by only his words and the wonder drug he used to strengthen the weaker beastman. It was more so strengthened by the underlying fact that every one wanted change.

It was the vehicle that pulled together the passion of the common man. After all, they were many that had been oppressed by the senate for a very long time.

Seeing that someone was now willing to stand up for the common man against the tyrannical rule of the senate, many flocked to him.

And the more many ran to him, the more many more ran to him. In no time, Hadi had become this exulted, religious leader, that promoted freedom of the rights of the common man.

Those that formed around him, Hadi used the method of having them taste flesh to bind them to his course. As one would expert, it became a religious organization of sorts, having its own banner, its own army, and eventually, its own land.

No matter the armies sent by the senate to stop Hadi, it was of no use. His wonder drug gave his men incredible strength that made any and everyone jealous of the kind of power that he commanded.

Soon, years later, it reached a point were the Beast kingdom was actually divided into two.

But the truly scary part of it all is the fact that Hadi had greater land territory than the senate. Basically speaking, he now had enough land that he could actually declare independence from the Beast Kingdom.

…

10 years later….. Five months before the fall of the highlanders.

In the great halls that held the proud members of the senate, they was an argument. A rowdy argument at that.

Once upon a time, this hall used to be filled with a lot of species of beast men. However, along the long ten years, many in the senate had defected to the other side.

Of course, a majority of these were those that never had a quality say within the senate house in the first place. They included people like the Rabbit-men, rat-men… etc.

Those that only occupied a seat for the sake of representing their race in the Senate house but had no true power.

Meanwhile, those like the Rhino-men, Lion-men, Tigermen, and so on that had more formidable strength held their stand.

Of course, they were still some that had the idea of defecting and joining Hadi’s side of the nation.

However, power was a very addictive drug. Once a man had tasted its sweetness, it was very difficult for one to let go.

These men were very stubborn, and their beastly natures that would not let them submit was contributing fiercely to this.

Of course, the person that led the charge the most was Senator Jericho, the Tiger-man. The one person that proposed that hadi rotted in jail for what had happened many years ago.

The argument today was on the fact that the senate had voted for inviting Hadi over and discussing peaceful terms with him.

Jericho and his own followers would not have it. Even though the invitation had long been sent out, and hadi had agreed to talk with them, he proposed that Hadi be assassinated the moment that he walked through those doors.

Of course, those words were only in theory. After all, there was no way that Hadi would come to such a place without bringing along his guards.

Then again, he still tried his best to convince them otherwise. Meanwhile Hadi’s father sat somewhere within the crowd listening to the arguments.

The activities that had happened within these ten years had put a lot of stress on him, so much that he looked as if he had aged by thirty years.

This could not be helped, as this entire problem started from his own son.

He had long lost his influence within the senate and they were those that voted for him to be removed from the Senate. If not that he remained the representative of his race, and was a very hard man, he would have succumbed to the pressure and retire.

However, he just couldn’t. After all, he blamed himself for all that had happened so far.

He knew deep in his heart that if he had not abandoned his son in prison, and at least heard him out, things would not have happened this war.

Just then, a messenger rushed into the senate house with a letter in hand. This was a Cheetah-man

After handing it over to the Senate President who was a lion-man, he rushed out of the room.

The Senate president adjusted his glasses as he read through the content of the letter. Instantly, a frowned stained his face.

By now, everyone’s attention was drawn to it.

*Cough!* he cleared his throat. “There has been an unexpected development. According to this, Hadi would no longer be coming to this hearing today!”

“Huh!?”

“Again!?” Another Senotor screamed.

“this is the third time he is doing this. Does he think that we are fools?” Another one screamed out.

“Order! Order!! Order!!!” The Senate President hit the gavel, but none in the senate wanted to obey.

Just then, Senator Jericho Roared heavily to the sky, and everyone fell silent.

Jericho commanded an impressive presence in the senate, and truly, there was no one that wanted to get rid of Hadi more than him.

“I have thought about it again, and again, and I do not think this will end. Hadi, scum of the earth has become too strong to be controlled, and very soon, I am sure we all know that he will declare an independent state.”

Those words made them murmur a bit.

“However…” he suddenly spoke up, drowning their words. “I have a method that will get rid of him once and for all. In fact, one can say that we will be killing two birds with one stone…”
