Rudra spent a good two weeks at home. He settled his disputes with Max after the kid apologised profousely for being a d.i.c.k to his brother and overall there was harmony in the Rajput household.
The cuber officials who were uneasy about Rudra not visiting them frequented Rudra's household and after a lot of deliberation Rudra decided to give them forty minutes of dinner-time each day.
So basically everyday Rudra would eat dinner with 15-20 cuber officials while talking about the fate of humanity as he enjoyed a thick slice of pizza.
The cuber officials wanted earth to remain a democracy even after the first awakening and wanted Rudra to make a democratic government after being elected to power but Rudra refused this proposal flatly.
Rudra was not power hungry, or averse to having a team of qualified individuals leading the world, he was averse to the idea of democracy because in a democracy the most qualified candidate did not make it to the top, the one with the best marketting team did.
The last thing Rudra wanted was to leave the fate of humanity to a bunch of corporate officials and 60-70 year oldmen who would have never put a single foot outside the comforts of Earth's atmosphere.
The universe was a cruel place and only a strong leader with an iron fist could provide stability to humans in these dark times and without a better alternative that leader had to be Rudra.
Sitting with the cuber officials Rudra made the law book that will be applied in the new dog-eat dog world as a set of baselines that humans were not allowed to violate.
Within Earth, murder, rape and betrayal of humanity remained capital crimes. Whereas theft, second degree a.s.sault and other minor crimes would lead to imprisonment.
There was still a right to freedom for everyone , freedom of speech, freedom to reside wherever they wished to on earth and freedom to practice whatever relegion they wanted to , if one did not have freedom to something it was to information.
Only the government was allowed to issue public information drives and cover galactic/universal news and no other media or local channel could.
Rudra understood the power of information and the need to keep certain parts of information censored lest it lead to civil unrest which is why he decided to censor information.
Rudra decided to set-up the Earth's Greatest Warrior's federation , a organisation that would provide monetary and equipment support to young and upcoming adventurers as well as work as a guild that issues tasks that could be completed and exchanged for rewards.
Rudra decided to retain the cuber corporation as the shadow leaders of the world government and decided that from every continent there will be one representative elected to the post of continental commanders and will serve as a high ranking official and decision maker for their respective continents.
Rudra also gave the cuber officials tips on how to make trade with the planet easy and how to set up the merchants organization and trade unions, as well as establish universal cities that could house aliens.
Rudra was very clear that he did not want aliens to be able to freely roam on earth which is why the only regions where the aliens were allowed to go would be restricted to 2-3 specially constructed cities for now.
Apart from these sectors Rudra left the control of every other sector to Gaia and hence basically retained control of earth in its entirety.
The cuber officials were justifiably distressed by this decision of Rudra as this concentrated too much power in the hands of one Man , however there was nothing they could do about it.
When Rudra took control over Gaia he had became the G.o.d of Earth and taken over the fate of the planet in its entirety. The cuber officials were given this A.I by the universal queen for smoothly running this planet and being the master of Gaia was akin to being the master of the planet as she was the only link to the universal queen.
Even without Gaia Rudra was the most popular man on the planet and the strongest one as well and if he decided to take over the planet through a bloodbath there was absolutely no-one capable enough to stop him.
While working on the planets law and order Rudra also got some ideas about how he wanted his relegion in Omega to be so he wrote his Bible like book called the Book Of Elites as well submitting it to Gaia to integrate it as the holy book of his relegion in the future.
However Rudra made sure to not work for more than 2 hours a day and only work when Naomi was sleeping as he spent every hour of the daylight with his very pregnant wife.
Rudra noticed there to be some tension between Max and Naomi as the two did not seem to be on bad terms but there was some indescribable tension between the two.
Rudra also noticed that Naomi was looking paler than usual and that she was getting thinner and thinner by the day and to counterattack this effect he tried to heal her while she slept at night.
Rudra's t.i.tle of human G.o.d gave him the ability to heal about any human even from a near dead state however the problem was that the mana currently on earth was too thin for him to properly use his techniques.
Gaia explained to Rudra that if he wanted to heal Naomi properly he needed to either wait for the mana barrier to break during the first awakening or take her to his gaming room back at his office where due to runic inscriptions the flow of mana was many times more than earth's natural atmosphere.
Rudra asked Naomi if she was okay and she repeatedly a.s.sured Rudra that this was all normal during pregnancy and that the doctors said she was fine and that he worried too much.
It was a white lie Ofcourse however Rudra was none the wiser. He beleived his wife's words to be true like an idiot.
When the week of the delivery finally arrived and Naomi was expected to give birth anyday she started to vomit blood and look nothing like her true vibrant self and this is when Rudra finally realised something was really really wrong.
Knowing that Max had accompanied Naomi to the doctor for her every visit Rudra asked Max if what she was undergoing was really normal, and it was here that Max was caught in a real pickle.
*********
( A few days ago )
When Max came back home and saw Rudra the first thing he did was give his brother a heartfelt apology and Rudra too generously forgave him and gave him a warm hug.
The atmosphere in the Rajput household was good and Max watched in silence as Naomi seemed to be the happiest woman on the planet with Rudra at home.
It p.r.i.c.kled Max's conscience to not tell Rudra about Naomi's true medical state however seeing how happy the two were Max decided to not ruin the day and tell Rudra about it tommorow.
New novel chapters are published on Freewebn(ve)l.cm.
The next day he felt the same and then even the next day the atmosphere was the same which made Max unable to open his mouth.
Finally after almost a week had pa.s.sed Naomi called Max in her room alone and made him swear on her life that he would not put this happiness she experienced in jeopardy by telling Rudra about her illness.
Max was absolutely reluctant to do it , however after Naomi told him that if he told Rudra about it and somehow destroyed this happy world of hers she would curse him for eternity.
In his heart Max knew he should have told his brother however circ.u.mstances forced him to remain mute.
When Rudra asked him if his wife was okay, Max wanted to reveal everything, he was a well-wisher of his big sister in law as much as Rudra was however the promise to Naomi haunted him as Max reluctantly lied about it.
It was a big mistake on Max's part as this would be the reason that the two brothers would have their first and only fight that would be too big to be resolved by plain words and apologies and it would be a mistake that would become one of Max's biggest regrets of his life.
