My King System

Back at the kingdom of Lyanna, Scar starts to walk towards the entrance/exit gates of the kingdom. He was being escorted by Jing as he was now stated to be the following ruler of the kingdom. Scar had taught him all he could've about how to stabilise the kingdom's economy and how to get the people to be more invested in their work so the kingdom would elop faster before leaving. At the entrance gates of the kingdom, a group of 7 people awaited Scar. They looked to be relatively strong which made Jing assume that they were the people that would take Scar and place him in their raid part/squad. 

"I guess this is where we part ways," said Scar as he looked back at Jing. Although he didn't care much for the kingdom, Scar felt partly responsible for the decline in worker morale and their decline in economy. The less people that worked, the less money there would be in circulation. Since trade hadn't been established yet either, there was no way for people to make a living if they didn't work in some department in which they could make a profit. As such, Scar appointed Jing by force since he still sought revenge on Yuki. It was the only way for him to gain what he wanted but also fix his mistakes. 

"Thank you for teaching me all those things. I would've never guessed that you knew so much about these kinds of things," said Jing as he attempted to seem interested in what Scar did. He needed to make sure that Scar thought that he was cared for so that his worries would go away. The last thing Jing would want was to have some guard appointed to him to make sure that Jing wouldn't escape from the kingdom. It was essential that Scar wouldn't suspect a thing and that he assumed that Jing will take up as Lyanna's permanent ruler.

"What do you mean by you never guessed that I wouldn't know so much about ruling a kingdom? I'm by far the most intelligent person between the 3 kingdoms," said Scar. He was just trying to get on Jing's nerves since he took what Jing said as a mild joke. As such, he wanted to do the same to Jing. It was only fair that he would also get a chance to tease Jing one last time before they parted ways for at least a whole year. 

"I mean, you don't look like the type of person who would be smart. You look like some ruffian which only knows the ways of battle. As for your claim that you're the smartest person in the 3 kingdoms. If that was true, then everyone would be dumber than someone who allowed 3000 people to die a meaningless death," Jing added. He knew saying that was risky, however, he needed to make sure that Scar didn't suspect anything. A joke that was hurtful towards Scar would either anger him or make him embarrassed. Either way, he would think less about the kingdom's new ruler.

"Ya ya. Whatever, it wasn't like I was the only one who sent the command to go through with the battle. There were other people who were in the council including yourself. I think you should also bear the blame if I do," Jing replied before saying his goodbyes and leaving the kingdom with his new raid party. It looked like he was satisfied with the way things turned out. After all, he had a fun conversation with the one person he thought of as a friend. 

"Great. Now that he's gone, I can make a run for it. Wait..." Jing thought to himself. He knew the type of person Scar was. He wouldn't have left without taking extra precautionary measures to stop Jing from leaving the kingdom.

"Let's see... just in case he had left some people to keep an eye on me in secret, I'll have to have one way of stopping them. For starters, they would have to be stationed outside the kingdom since if I leave by changing my ability and climbing the wall from the back side, they would have no way of knowing that I left. That would be great since I can employ a no enter policy into the kingdom so they can't enter. If they can't enter the kingdom, they'll have no way of replenishing their food supply. As such, they'll be forced to leave at some point. Knowing the money Scar has, it wouldn't be outrageous for him to hire them to look after me for a whole year or two," Jing thought to himself as he tried to come up with a way to escape without having to face any problems. 

"The best thing to do for now is actually do the job which Scar told me to do. I'll have to help around the kingdom and make sure that everyone is working. However, in secret, I'll change my ability to something that allows me to install hidden cameras around the outside of the kingdom so I can learn the replenishing schedule of the people Scar hired to make sure that I don't escape the kingdom. That's even if Scar hired people," said Jing as he began to head back to the castle-like structure of the kingdom so he could change his ability in secret. 

Once Jing hard reset his ability, he exited the kingdom's castle-like structure and began to speak with the citizens as he tried to assist them with coping with the loss of their loved ones. Of course, he blamed Scar-their previous ruler for all of it. In doing so, he was able to make himself look like a better figure and assured everyone that they wouldn't have to worry about losing a single person from that point on. This of course wasn't true and was only said so that no one would get suspicious of him.

As Jing continued his quest to get all the kingdom's citizens on his side, he also used his ability which brought up screens which only he could see which monitored the outside of the kingdom. As he used his ability for the first time, Jing saw what he had expected to see. There were 10 people outside the kingdom walls, each one an equal distance from another. It was a good thing that Jing thought at the last minute that Scar wouldn't have trusted him that much. However, this meant that Jing could escape and wouldn't have to worry about Scar's state of mind since his own guards would pass on false information to him. 

Once Jing managed to sway the hearts of the citizens, he made sure that the kingdom gates were tightly sealed. This ensured that no one would be able to enter unless they were about to break the many locks which the gate had as a precautionary measure. This wasn't put in place to protect the people from random bandits which may have entered the kingdom but to ensure that the guards which were assigned to Jing wouldn't be able to keep an eye on him from every direction. 

After closing the kingdom gates, Jing managed to gather a large group of people which all changed their abilities to be one which put up an invisible dome gate around the kingdom which specifically blocked off anyone who tried to enter but would allow anyone to exit out of it. Jing managed to do this by telling the citizens that it'll make the effects of the dome stronger by only focusing its effect in one specific area. This was true as the more specific an ability was, the more powerful. However, in some cases, it also carried a lot of drawbacks. 

"This is great! This is great! He really thought that he would imprison me in his hell hole while he grew to be a strong and powerful individual. That idiot, he never accounted for the fact that I would use the people of the kingdom to overcome any obstacle that he put in front of me. He had given me everything I ever needed to leave this place permanently and no one would know about it. 

After a few weeks of monitoring the movements of the people who were set to stop Jing from escaping the kingdom, he realized that they would leave their duty to go somewhere else. every 3 days. That was most likely the day which they would go back to their kingdom or wherever they came from to attain supplies such as food. They wouldn't dare try to ask to enter Lyanna because they would have to give up their identities. 

This worked out perfectly for Jing since he would have a full day to escape the kingdom without having to worry about the fact that other people were after him. However, as a final precautionary measure, Jing changed his ability into a cloning one where he would place a clone of himself inside the kingdom so no one would get suspicious.

The day of his escape, Jing created only one clone of himself. Due to there only being one, it's body strength was inchanced. Jing knew it would be risky but he still went along with his plan.
