I Became the Tyrant of a Defense Game - Chapter 453
◈ 453. [Side Story] In the name of the emperor (2)
Cheak!
I picked up an Everblack branch from my inner pocket.
People around me were taken aback when I suddenly took out my black thorn wand from my bosom.
Most of them just looked at me as if I was trying to do something with a branch. However, some were shocked when they noticed what was in my hand.
“You can’t… ?!”
The most perplexing was Fernandez on the other side of the river.
No surprise. As Fernandez knew, this tree would be the only one in the imperial palace.
No way, this tree was originally made in the dungeon of the Lake Kingdom, the recipe was preserved in the dungeon, and the disparate races had the material of this tree – Fernandez would not have known in his wildest dreams.
“I’ve been rolling on the floor in the southern part of the country, so if you have something in your hand, the center will be better.”
Smirking, I held up Everblack’s twig and lowered it into the air next to it.
damn… … !
Then the space split.
Using the power of Everblack, he temporarily opened the door to the spirit world.
I put the tip of a twig into it.
Charleureuk!
Then, the tree branch that absorbed the power of the spirit world spread its tips under the spirit world in an instant, as if it were extending its roots.
“Wasn’t it very difficult fighting the gods alone there for a long time?”
I smiled and said to the open door.
“Please come back and take care of yourself. Take care of your temporal subjects as well.”
A man isolated in the spirit world.
The real leader of the empire.
The trump card I decided to use in this war, and the strongest card at the same time –
“… Obama.”
At the same time as I called him,
Quag!
I felt a strong hand grasp the tip of the branch.
I pulled Everblack as it was. Then the branch that had been extending quickly shrunk – and
the man who held on to the end was sucked into the present world.
widely… .
As soon as the man set foot in the present world, the door to the spirit world was closed.
Passs-
At the same time, the branches of Everblack in my hand turned to ashes and disappeared.
It seems that such a small branch can only be used as a single rope and a single searchlight.
Does not matter.
This purpose has been achieved.
“… .”
Returning to this world, the man immediately opened his slowly closed eyes.
Between the disheveled black hair, the golden eyes that flashed the majesty that seemed not to be human radiated light.
Humans created by the gods from gold instead of clay.
Master of half of the world.
The sole emperor of the Everblack Empire.
Traha ‘Peacemaker’ Everblack… … returned from the spirit world.
“after.”
Looking up at the sky, sweeping the ground with my feet, taking a deep breath, and stroking my untidy beard with one hand, said, “I heard that this
life is better even if you roll in the filth.”
My father – the real Emperor of the Everblack Empire laughed in vain.
“There is not a single word wrong in the old saying.”
***
The whole area fell into a panic.
Everyone south of the river, as well as Fernandez and the zodiac guards under Fernandez, north of the river. It was completely frozen.
The emperor, who was said to have died after disappearing, returned unexpectedly.
“go… It is fake.”
One of the soldiers of the 1st Corps, who was aiming a spear at me, shouted.
“His Majesty has been missing for well over a year! Rumors spread that he died! It must be fake to appear so suddenly… … !”
“Fake.”
The emperor looked back and smiled.
“That is an interesting story. If there is a fake that can imitate Jim, I would really like to see it.”
“Uh uh… ?!”
The majesty of the absolute naturally emits from behind.
The emperor, who was walking towards it, looked around and whispered softly.
“Jim is unique. Even if there are fakes, they may be able to imitate Jim’s appearance, but they will not be able to imitate the light that Jim’s soul possesses.”
“… .”
“Who dares to call Jim a fake? Whoever you are is fine, so come forward to me and tell me the evidence.”
no one stepped out
They only shudder and face the return of the emperor.
“okay. grow.”
The emperor clicked his tongue briefly.
“How are you wearing imperial military uniforms when you don’t even recognize me? Either lay down your weapons or take off your uniform.”
Go crazy!
Chaenggang… … !
Weapons rained down from the hands of the soldiers of the 1st Corps.
The soldiers who threw their weapons on the floor all fought at the emperor in unison.
“your majesty… !”
“Your Majesty the Emperor!”
“Meet the Supreme of the Empire!”
“Forgive our rudeness… !”
Right after that,
“Your Majesty!”
“Emperor of the Empire… !”
Among the fallen kings who were aiming their weapons this way, the astute ones quickly lowered their weapons.
“Have you been well in prison?”
“It seems misleading. We didn’t mean to oppose you… … .”
“I was just fooled by Fernandez’s flattery over there!”
In an instant, the situation reversed.
In an instant, the hostility is broken.
Most of the sword points and spear points that were facing this way fell to the floor. Looking around, the emperor smiled softly with his hands behind his back.
“This is true. What a strange ally. The various leaders of the frontier have all gathered.”
Right after that, the emperor met Dusk Bringer’s eyes and narrowed his eyes.
“Besides, I see several leaders who hate me.”
“… .”
Dusk Bringer quietly glared at the emperor with his arms crossed. The emperor calmly let go of that gaze and turned around.
“Gathering so many princes in one place is as expected… … .”
After looking around the area, the emperor finally looked at me.
“Ash, the youngest of Jim. It is you.”
“That’s right. Obama.”
I bowed to the emperor and paid my respects.
“It’s been a long time since I met you in the spirit world.”
“At that time, I thought that because you were getting lost in the spirit world, this prodigal fellow was wandering without getting tired… … Things have changed. This time you saved this father.”
The Emperor raised his hand and wiped his haggard face.
“There was a limit to being able to endure it. If you hadn’t taken it out, it really would have been a different fate in the spirit world.”
In fact, I could have rescued the Emperor as soon as I got Everblack’s twig a few weeks ago.
The spy was in the military camp. It would have been difficult if Fernandez had discovered this trump card after rescuing it in advance.
So, in my spare time, I opened the door to the spirit world and checked to see if she was alive.
I made sure that I had enough time to catch my breath, and I took the timing and rescued him right now.
Despite probably knowing that fact, the Emperor did not express himself, but bowed to me and expressed his gratitude.
“Thank you, Ash. I will never forget this.”
“It was just the right thing to do as a son.”
Right after that, I smiled and turned the horse’s sword.
“… Even though my older brother is over there who did something he shouldn’t have done as a son.”
Then the emperor slowly turned his head to look north—to the other side of the river.
“Dear my second son, my AmberKeeper.”
“… .”
Fernandez put on a wry smile as if he was frustrated.
“… Obama Mama. You have returned.”
The emperor let out a short sigh.
“okay. Fernandez. Because you closed the door to the spirit world… … It was isolated there for quite some time. If I had been confined just a little longer, I might have had a different fate as you planned.”
“… .”
“Fernandez. my son Do you covet the throne enough to want to take it even while getting rid of this father?”
The emperor’s voice was unexpectedly calm, not angry at all.
“Then why didn’t you speak frankly? Since you are smart, you might have seriously considered my abdication.”
“I am not interested in the throne, Obama.”
Fernandez shook his head.
“As the emperor, there was something I had to do as the representative of mankind, and it was clear that Obama would not tolerate it… That’s all I did.”
“You mean that it is worth doing even with the burden removed?”
“That’s right.”
“If you do, you’re saying that even though Jim has returned, you’re still going to hold the title and point your weapon at Jim?”
“That’s right.”
Fernandez did not hesitate. On the contrary, only the soldiers of the Imperial Guard around Fernandez were startled.
“What would you hesitate to come all the way here, Obama? As the last leader of mankind, I intend to walk the path I have set to the end.”
“… .”
“Even if you end up crossing swords with Obama in the process. I will go my own way.”
Fernandez clenched his fists in front of his chest.
“I have already made up my mind. I will walk this path even if no one in the world understands me.”
“Because you believe that the way is right?”
“no.”
Fernandez shook his head heavily.
“Because this is the only way.”
“… .”
The emperor, who had been silently observing Fernandez, turned his head to me.
“ash.”
“Yes, Obama.”
“Don’t entrust Jim with acting authority. I’ll lend you the emperor’s name, so sort things out.”
The emperor let out a long sigh.
“My people who bared their teeth at me… I am too old and tired to do it all myself.”
“Just lending your name is enough. You are resting for a while.”
I smiled and stepped in front of the emperor.
Then he raised his voice and shouted.
“Ecliptic Defense Forces!”
The soldiers around Fernandez shook their shoulders.
Since Fernandez has been in charge of the internal affairs of the imperial kingdom for a long time as the minister of administration, the imperial defense forces are no different from Fernandez’s hands and feet.
But even so… … They are also soldiers of the Empire who are loyal to the Emperor.
Fernandez announces the death of the previous emperor and ascends to the position of new emperor. Because the emperor did not die and came back alive like this.
No matter what cause or justification there was, they are all waste paper.
And if the cause and justification are lost, the army will no longer remain an army.
All that remains is the Pom Ryeondan of the Municipal Jabbae.
“Choose right here, right now!”
I stretched out my hand and offered them a choice.
“Are you going to remain a bunch of weightlifters following the false emperor?”
“… !”
“Or will you remain a loyal and honorable soldier of the Empire who will give your life for the true emperor!”
A commotion spreads.
A crack was widening between the Imperial Defense Forces, which had not had any gaps until just a few minutes ago.
Officers and soldiers looked at each other and were restless not knowing what to do.
I smirked inwardly.
That’s what I said, these people. stand in line
The best line in the empire is not the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd prince. right of course! is the emperor
I was only thinking of grabbing this line from the beginning!
“I command in the name of the great Emperor Traha ‘Peacemaker’ Everblack of the Everblack Empire-”
With Hwang Myeong on my back, I shouted loudly.
“If you are a true soldier of the empire and a true loyalist of the empire, seize the weightlifting right in front of you!”
“… !”
Then
Chuck! chuck! chuck!
Just as our world defense front was split in two, this time the Ecliptic Defense Force was split in two.
Soldiers belonging to the imperial defense army came out in an instant and pointed their weapons at the same side.
And the point of the sword and the tip of the spear were once their owners… … It was towards Fernandez.
“You guys… !”
“What are you doing right now!”
“shut up! Who are you guys pointing your sword at right now!”
“I am the Imperial Guard! It is the Emperor’s shield! I will stand by the Emperor’s side!”
The soldiers of the Imperial Defense Army, split in half, shouted at each other.
and in the middle of it.
“ash… .”
Fernandez trembled and laughed as his weapon was pointed at the soldiers he had been commanding a moment ago.
“… It’s really a staggering bout to win.”
I smiled round and round.
Thanks for the compliment bro!
