章 359: Bodyguard

( The Paratus Capital ) 

Sam made an unannounced visit to the Paratus capital after discovering the leak within his administration as Asiva was shocked to receive the patriarch of the Saint Maximus Clan on such short notice. 

Sam was a bit puzzled as to why Ravan was not present on the planet as he and Asiva delved into a deep discussion regarding the recent events on both sides and the precarious position they were in. 

Asiva was shocked to learn about the leak in the Saint Maximus administration and asked Sam why was everyone not bound with system contracts, and eventually received a complicated answer which basically meant that sometimes one needed to do some wrongs to aim for the greater good. 

What it translated to was that corruption was necessary for the politician's to survive in a comfortable life and while the bottom rung of administration had to be bound by system contracts, after a certain level it all ran on trust.
