Chapter 682 – [White Church]
As soon as the second prince saw me, he was startled and backed away. And he quickly opened the door and tried to escape, but to no avail.
While running in the middle, I was hit by the membrane I set up, bounced off, and rolled on the ground. I couldn’t run away anymore and even if I shouted, no one could hear me.
“It’s stern!!!! Now I’m the emperor!!!!”
“Hey, don’t you think it’s somehow embarrassing to say something like that after rolling on the floor while trying to run away?”
“You rude bastard!!!!”
He looked confident on the outside, but when he looked into his eyes, he was trembling.
One of the ten strongest people on the continent is antagonizing, and there were only two of them right in front of their noses.
I glanced at the breastplate draped across his upper body. It’s quite nice, it seems to be a breastplate made of dragon bones that I gave you.
If it was someone else, I’d be able to block the sword at least once… My specialty was originally a penetrator, instant kill, etc., So it’s meaningless.
“So, how about trying something like an emperor? Does it feel good?”
“You bastard…Are you going to be rude to the end?”
“I don’t think it’s necessary to keep manners with the bastard who killed his father.”
He flinched as if he had some conscience.
Yes, he was acquainted with Sandman. That’s why he knew the timing to assassinate the emperor, and at that time he raised an army and succeeded in a coup.
When the army moves, he can only stand out, but his mother’s family is the Earl of Vermillion. Thanks to his munitions industry, he was relatively unobtrusive, so even a coup would have easily succeeded.
So there’s no sister in the capital and this baby is king.
“What is that about!!!! I should have done anything to become emperor!!!!”
“So you hung out with the guy who killed your father?”
“You!!!!”
“Those who beat up with facts don’t know what they did wrong or have little conscience.”
In the first place, the second prince’s accession had many problems. Legitimacy, justification, and even public support. Rather, the older brother who gave up the throne once was much closer to the emperor.
“Then what did I have to do!!!! A well-liked prince and a talented first princess!!!! How can I become emperor with the two of them at the top!!!!”
“If you knew that, you shouldn’t have become emperor.”
“Sit still and give me your head?”
“I don’t even talk properly, it’s more like that because I’m a suspicious patient”
Both the older brother and the older sister made the emperor their teacher on the other hand. So he had been told that even if he became emperor, he would not do anything like purges.
There are no lies Second Prince, who may not have been deeper than me, but had a longer relationship, must have heard that, and only Second Prince did not believe it.
“You were the only one inferior to me!!!! You also became one of the top 10 in the continent!!!!! I’m more noble and superior than you, why on earth!!!!!”
“I’m going to explode my inferiority complex”
The reality that he would die if he failed to become emperor (even though it was an illusion), the talented brothers, and even the inferiority complex that arises from the difference.
Then, the neurosis that got caught made the current second prince.
“But that doesn’t mean it’s right.”
Socrates did. Know yourself
I have no intention of defending a guy who runs rampant without understanding the subject. The 2nd prince took advantage of the chaos to slap his opponent in the back of the head, and since he colluded with Zandman, who had killed the emperor before that, he himself was a traitor.
“Did you do anything good after becoming emperor? No? But what kind of emperor are you?”
“Who said no!”
“Yes?”
“I guess I didn’t see it because I sneaked in? Do you know what the first thing I did after becoming emperor?”
“What?”
“They dragged her dethroned empress from her concubine and threw her to her executioners, and when she was out of her mind, they cut her throat and hung her in the plaza.”
“………..Five”
The emperor’s children were four in total, including me, and each had a different mother, but only one empress was alive.
Saying yes means that the second prince’s mother was also assassinated like my mother. Of course there will be vengeance there.
However, the empress was dethroned and imprisoned in the concubine because of my recent scandal. It’s alive, but that’s all, and it can’t do anything. I couldn’t even hold a tea party and invite anyone.
For her strong desire for power, spending the rest of her life like that is enough punishment for her, but it seems that her second prince didn’t see it and dragged her out and killed her.
Well, to be honest, it’s cool.
“Look at it, I’ll kill you painlessly”
“Now, wait a minute!!!! Take my side!!! With you, I can wipe out all the rebels or whatever and solidify my position! Then I’ll give you a place next to me!!!!”
“I do not need”
There was a high possibility that he would vomit at the end of his work before he hurt his pride if he crawled under the bastard who ate with the guy who killed his father, wondering if it was something vulgar.
Of course, I wouldn’t treat you like that, but usually it would be poisoning or something. Or take hostages.
“You don’t have trust. At least if your brother or sister made such a proposal, you would have trust. They won’t make promises you can’t keep in the first place. But you? If I wipe out the rebels, won’t they attack me someday?”
“Oh no!!!!”
“Lie”
Just a little bit, even though the situation was imminent because the situation was on the verge of death, I could feel a small lie in his words now.
This type of person keeps holding grudges in their hearts. He easily forgets Eun-hye and carves his grudge into his bones and takes revenge someday.
Sometimes you have to have the mindset to be tolerant even if you don’t like it in order to become an emperor, but such a petty mindset is also not suitable for a ruler.
“Goodbye. I’ll be grateful for killing the empress.”
“Now, wait a minute…”
I didn’t want to listen to his excuses any longer. I punched him and smashed his head.
I sigh, and my head explodes like a watermelon bursting. The end of the person who was closest to the emperor’s position and was able to obtain it was disastrous.
“Sweet, I can’t get used to it even if I do immorality.”
I’ve committed many kinds of immorality, but I still can’t get used to it. This could be seen as an aspect of my humanity.
Anyway, what remains is the disposal of the remnants. But it’s not easy. If they don’t want to die, they will resist, and originally, these kids are single-celled organisms, so even if their heads are blown off, they divide and grow.
If you want to deal with it, you have to deal with everything.
“I’m going to go see my older sister… I’ll meet my older brother and finish the story.”
There was still a lot of work to be done.
First of all, we have to destroy the entire palace of the 2nd prince.
* * *
After finishing my work in the capital, I tore apart the dimension and came to the Duchy of Bistra this time.
Leticia, her nanny, and her sister were here. I was able to meet again here because I quickly ran away and evacuated here when the incident was about to happen.
“Majesty!”
“Looks like you’re all right. I knew it roughly, but you’re not hurt anywhere?”
“Yes, it’s because we moved immediately after the incident happened.
According to the original plan, I planned to run away with all the family members of the Emerald Palace where I live.
However, since the situation was urgent, the plan was changed and only the main characters moved to the 【Bridge Connecting Space】and the rest of the members went outside the palace and scattered and hid.
To hide a tree, you have to hide in the forest, and to hide a person, you have to hide in people. They were told to refrain from going out as much as possible until the matter was resolved, so the risk of being caught was low.
You wouldn’t think that if you had an idea in the first place, you’d be able to hold me as a hostage, just like an attendant.
And soon I was able to meet the older sister with a slightly haggard complexion.
“Looks like you’re all right. I heard the news from the academy. Did the work there go well?”
“I came to destroy the White Church”
“……Now, what?”
“Hasn’t the news been announced yet?”
Ah, if you think about it, in order for the news to be known, someone first figured out that the entire country was destroyed and contacted them…Anyway, it’s understandable that it hasn’t been known yet.
Then you don’t even know about the second prince, Jo Jin. Would it be better to tell you in advance?
“I killed the 2nd prince before coming here. All that remains are the nobles of that faction, so you can deal with it later.”
“……I wanted to avoid killing relatives.”
“I can’t help something like this”
Originally, when the emperor changes, it is natural for bloody purges to occur.
It was a bit unusual now, but it was strange to leave the next greatest heir to the throne alone. So kill it and deal with it.
My sister also looked a little depressed, but she brushed it off soon.
She is a strong woman She never lost her dignity at any time and had a strong spirit. That is why she deserves the title of emperor.
“Originally, now that my father has passed away, it seems that my sister will ascend to the throne.”
“If it was an easy story, I wouldn’t be staying here right now.”
“Is it because of your brother?”
“According to what I’ve learned here, signs of civil war are evident. Even if I return to the ecliptic and organize it again, I don’t know what will happen if I covet the position of emperor there.”
Anything has momentum. As the saying goes, once you get on the current, it rushes quickly.
However, in other words, it means that once you get the momentum, you can’t get off even if you want to get off. What was that……. When I came in, I was free, but when I left, it wasn’t? Kinda feel like that.
My older brother was already preparing for a war against the second prince. But here, when my sister says she will become the emperor, that side ah, yes. Okay, do you think you’ll go back?
Even if my brother hates it, other nobles will oppose it. So, I needed to talk to them as well.
“But it’s strange. It’s been a while since you said that you would give up the position of emperor. No matter how much the second prince did that, it doesn’t feel right to start a civil war.”
“There’s a reason for that”
I told my sister my opinion of Helen von Valentine.
She is one of the reincarnations sent by the White Goddess to start a war on the continent.
And the fact that the crown prince’s older brother gave up her position as emperor and now actively steps forward at the right time is highly likely to be her trick.
“Are we prepared for self-fantasy in the spirit world? Can we be brainwashed so easily?”
“It’s a matter of direction and emotion.”
It reminded me of where I felt what I felt for Helene von Valentine.
The day Korma met the demons for the first time when he came over to the continent. A male demon’s self-fantasy [A man who is loved anytime, anywhere] Was a self-fantasy that arouses the other’s liking.
And I judged that the mechanism of self-fantasy used by Helene von Valentine was similar to it.
“Is it really okay to make the other person love themselves instead of cheating on them? If that’s the case, you won’t even be able to detect it.”
“The feeling of love can’t be stopped, and that doesn’t matter. This case is a little different.”
“You said you met her, are you okay?”
“If I could have loved easily just like that, I would have become a prostitute a long time ago.”
“If you hear about the woman who’s still by your side, you’re a prostitute enough.”
“No, leave that story alone for a moment.”
Somehow, it was true that Helene von Valentine was trying to stir up a civil war by instigating her crown prince.
In order to stop the civil war now, I had to step in and crush it with overwhelming force. Otherwise, the empire will be ruined.
“…I’m indebted to you again.”
“Your brother is only being deceived, so he won’t kill you.”
“That person is also very unlucky. How come all the women around her are like that……”
The prince’s mother and the empress felt the same way. The only thing they have in common in the future is that they will fall behind.
I thought my sister would become the emperor, but I didn’t know that I would move directly like this. Because of the baby, she doesn’t know what this is.
“By the way, the helplessness and maturity that don’t fit your age… Are you, by any chance, a reincarnated person?”
“Ah…….”
I could have lied here, but I’m not persuasive, and I’m cheating my sister. I’m the weak type for acquaintances, so I don’t want to lie unless it’s a white lie.
Just a little bit of seasoning could hit.
“Yes, I am a reincarnated being sent by the Gray God to stop the war.”
“Indeed, if you’re a gray god who maintains neutrality, that’s the case. Looking at your actions, you’re not just doing things that benefit the empire.”
I sold the name of the gray god. Well, since we’ve met before, it’s okay to sell names like this.
Then, sneakily, my sister spoke to me with grim eyes.
“That would mean that we are South and South Koreans just because we have the same blood, right?”
“…….How can you be a stranger with the same blood?!?!?!”
No, sister?! Sister I’m dying!!! Sister?!?!?
