The news had spread across the Republic of Cruen about the death of the mayor's children, wife, and mistress. Everyone mourned and paid him a visit to Eddenvilla, but unfortunately, the shock and grief made the mayor lose his mind. He had become a madman to the point that he threw all his gold coins away as if trying to bargain with death.
Everyone attended the burial of his family and his only daughter was being taken care of by a close relative. Although everyone knew how corrupt and greedy he was, they didn't think he deserved such a tragedy. They felt bad, but at the same time knew what was coming to him for his own evil deeds.
The parliament immediately discussed the matter and chose a new candidate to become the next mayor of Eddenvilla. Usually, the vice mayor would become the next mayor, but knowing the vice mayor also took the bribery, he stepped down from his position.
