Chapter 90
Chapter 90
"Wait, what is this? I thought he’d be some scheming villain because he seemed like an ordinary merchant lord, but why is he... good?""A guy who bribes officials and runs shady businesses is good now?"
ᄂ "He’s saving people who would’ve died with that money, you idiot.""It’s impressive, sure... but he’s not exactly a hero, is he?""I thought ‘Thunder King’ meant he was some kind of lightning-powered hero, but instead, we get an incompetent old guy."
The newly released [Thunder King] McGuy Zaborg.
He wasn’t someone with extraordinary abilities, nor did he make any grand sacrifices. He was just another corrupt merchant lord of his era.
Born in a provincial territory, he bribed his way to Imperial citizenship and exploited laborers labeled as heretics to increase his mines’ productivity and cut labor costs. He seemed like a run-of-the-mill villain, yet he was posthumously honored as a hero and even ascended as a Constellation.
How could such a thing happen?
Gradually, his efforts expanded.
He disguised women and children as adult male workers to sneak them to safety.
The title [Thunder King] was not because he wielded lightning powers but was earned posthumously, a name born of his quick thinking and resourcefulness.
A Constellation without extraordinary powers.
