Days as a Spiritual Mentor in American Comics

Chapter 5157 - 4203: Yes, Supreme Magician (Part 6)

Despite having JARVIS’s help, and although all Strange had to do was sign his name on the documents, the task still took him more than two hours.At first, Strange planned to be diligent, at least glancing at the documents he could understand. But after less than 20 minutes, he began mechanically signing his name.

In the last half hour, he couldn’t even be bothered to sign for himself, letting JARVIS mimic his handwriting to sign for him. He leaned back in his chair and took a nap.

Actually, Strange didn’t need to sleep; meditation would suffice. But those documents were so hypnotic, they gave him a much-needed good sleep. When he awoke, it was already time for the routine meeting.

"We have a morning meeting and an evening meeting," JARVIS reminded, "The morning meeting is at 7:30 AM, and the evening meeting is before the end of the workday, with no fixed time. Additionally, as the newly appointed Councilman, you need to reorganize the cabinet. This process must be completed within a week."

"So that means I can reselect the department personnel?"

"That’s right. Currently, the interstellar council has seven main departments, each with one Minister and one Deputy Minister. You will decide these roles, while other subordinates are chosen by the Ministers."

"I can’t just pick humans, right?"

"Correct. You can’t even choose all candidates from the Virgo cluster or the Milky Way; you need to consider the entire cosmos. Basically, you’ll be selecting from among your defeated competitors. I’ve filtered the candidates list for you to review."

Strange looked at the screen; JARVIS displayed the candidates for each department. Each position had three candidates, and as JARVIS had said, they hailed from all over the universe, with diverse races, origins, and abilities, though they all had experience relevant to each department, not complete newbies.

"Not this one," said Strange, "this one’s clearly a Kree; I don’t want Supreme Wisdom managing finances. And this one won’t work either; he’s a Skrull, and letting such a stubborn mind handle commerce would be disastrous. This Ferocious Feather Tribe member looks good, having been the boss of a large trade association, with family investments too. But why did you recommend him to the Security Department? Why not have him manage commerce?"

"Because he actually understands commerce."

"What?"

"If someone who really understands commerce manages the commerce department, it will cause trouble."

"Did you hear what you just said?"

"They will introduce plenty of reliable theories and executable ideas, potentially changing the interstellar economic landscape and perhaps even revitalizing the Great Teleportation Gate Star Area. So, he can’t manage the commerce department."

Strange was stunned: "What’s wrong with that?"

"It’s difficult for me to explain clearly," JARVIS said, "better wait until Doctor Schiller comes. This list was also provided by him."

At the mention of Schiller, Strange immediately sat up straight and said, "Where is he? Why isn’t he here yet?"

"The private political advisor needs to pass security checks and fill out applications to enter the council building. Let me see... Oh, he’s just about here."hat this is directly controlled by Supreme Wisdom.

It must be said, this was quite a good deterrent. When that robot walked in, everyone went silent. When Strange entered, he assumed it was just a minor role serving tea and water, didn’t even look at it, and sat straight at the front.

"Alright, although you all have likely heard my name before, I have to introduce myself: Supreme Mage Stephen Strange, race: Human, from Earth.

"While it’s more convenient to refer by titles in the course of work, no country on Earth has a head called a ’councilman’, it doesn’t sound quite right to me. So you can just call me Supreme Mage."

"Yes, Supreme Mage."
