Chapter 199
His last (1)
The prince who said a word and mowed his head down.
He opens his mouth again.
… No, I… I want to go. To Earth.
He finished speaking and looked at Sang-woo.
Unlike his pale complexion and dazzled previous expression, his eyes contained his gun that returned.
Are you sure, Your Majesty?
The prince nods at Bahrain’s question.
Yes, rather than giving up like this, I want to try something to the end.
His resolute answer.
The faces of all who read the challenges and hopes were illuminated.
Your Majesty… I can’t help you, but I wish you well.
Thanks to Nigel, the prince smiles faintly.
Thank you, Duke Raven. And… you don’t have to call me, or me, anymore.
A speech that seems to give up being the emperor himself.
Nigel was surprised by the remark and quickly replied.
How do you do that? Even if the Imperial Court falls, your noble bloodline and status will last forever. Never deny it.
Bahrain nods, agreeing.
Your Majesty… You are forever, Your Highness. Do not lower yourself.
Hmm…
A situation where the Crown Prince’s status has already become famous.
That’s why, for the prince himself, he thought carefully and decided.
However, everyone had to accept the barrel of drying.
… OK, I won’t forget.
People who look brighter by saying that.
Thus, the last royal family of the Eurensian Emperor, Prince Hardin, was confirmed.
* * *
“The Bismarck Knights have been defeated. ”
The Duke of Bismarck, or Emperor Bismarck, on the throne mutters.
At his words, the heads of the congregation bowed.
They were all neutral, not all of them a part of Bismarck’s treason.
One or more of the officials raised their voices to look at the emperor.
“This is treason. ”
“This is your chance, Duke Raven. ”
“Increase the dignity of the Imperial Court. Your Majesty.”
The last servant asked Emperor Bismarck.
“I have to elevate the dignity of the Imperial Court… Yes. What do you want me to do, sir? ”
His question opened his mouth with a confident expression.
“Of course, we must hide the First Prince and wipe out the rebellious Duke Raven. ”
Claim to attack.
It was a reasonable argument for anyone to hear.
However, Emperor Bismarck frowned over whether he felt uncomfortable hearing it.
“I have to wipe it out… Fine. Then who’s gonna wipe it out? ”
The Emperor’s question.
However, no one stepped forward.
Raven territory now has the Imperial Guardian Sword, because he was there.
Because of this, it was too risky to attack rashly.
Even if the expedition succeeds, the warring families will surely be weakened.
So no one stepped up.
It’s a loss.
‘… opportunists. ’
And Emperor Bismarck is well aware of the situation of such officials.
I asked him again if he was frustrated.
“Nobody. Then Earl Mentes, why don’t you do it? ”
“That is… sorrow, Your Majesty. Sosin’s thoughts were brief. ”
Earl Mentes, who was curious, calmed down with a cold sweat.
“Tsk, tsk… Think and speak. ”
A blame that seems to be frustrating for Emperor Bismarck.
After that, there was silence again.
“… Is there anything else you’d like to say to the Beekeeper? ”
Emperor’s urgency.
But before that, there was only silence.
I didn’t want to disturb the discomfort of the new emperor in any way.
And Bismarck looks at such officials.
‘We’re in trouble…’ ’
With the Purging of the Dissidents and the restoration of the chaotic regime in place, my head ached even more as the prince fled like a muffin in a troubled situation.
‘And… I fled to Raven Land…’ ’
Moreover, where the Mudfish is headed is the Duke of Raven.
What he was so concerned about happened and worried about.
Now there are only two options left for Emperor Bismarck.
Fighting Raven Territory, eradicating the Crown Prince, and uprooting the rebellion.
He was trying to negotiate with Raven territory.
One, actually fighting made no sense, and there was no one else.
‘There’s too much blood to fight… Even political authorities can’t put themselves at risk in a chaotic yard to cause a rebellion. ’
It’s only a few days since I became Emperor.
Not even a coronation has been held, and the imperial kingdom is not yet firmly established.
The reign of terror that purged the Dissidents so decisively from treason has helped to refine the empire quite well, but still requires more time.
‘And hitting Raven Land didn’t make sense in the first place. ’
Ten Grand Masters in Raven Territory.
If I so carelessly attacked such a place, I might not be the shortest emperor in history.
‘… There’s only one way to do it. ’
How long has it been since I thought about it like that?
While everyone stands inside the palace, breathing the uncomfortable air, the mouth of Emperor Bismarck finally opens.
“Everyone’s speechless. ”
“I beg your pardon, Your Majesty. ”
“It’s all right. It’s my choice. ”
“I will listen, Your Majesty. ”
“I’ll listen, Your Majesty. ”
Everyone is waiting for the Emperor’s answer.
Emperor Bismarck’s mouth is open.
“It’s clear you helped the prince escape from Duc Raven. The last act of the Crown Prince and the last communication of the Bismarck Knights were lost there. I have no concrete evidence yet that I would like to dispatch an investigation team to investigate Duke Raven myself. I’ll decide what to do with Duke Raven after that. If you refuse to investigate… ”
The emperor continues to speak, and everyone notices.
“… then I will deal with the Duke Raven, or Raven’s entire territory, for treason. Using the Dragon Tower. ”
His words astonish everyone in the palace.
“You mean the Dragon Tower? ”
Dragon Tower.
Installed in the capital city of the Empire, it is the product of cutting-edge Mana technology that can intercept beyond the barrier.
This tower, built by dragons, has a built-in Dragon Heart that can charge its own Mana and continue to fire lasers with immense power.
Often used as a defensive shield to shoot support where there is a shortage of firepower when a barrier is broken through with a monster wave.
However, the emperor turned this idea into an attack.
So everyone’s surprised.
“Yes. Of course not. Everything in the world has variables. Maybe Jim doesn’t know the inevitable. And given the loyalty of the Duke Raven who’s been working for the Empire for centuries, I’d like to give you a chance. The Bismarck Knights, who were originally about to become the Imperial Crisis Squad, were effectively annihilated and replaced them with the talents of Duke Raven. ”
The Emperor’s words leave room.
It was a very good choice to weaken the power in Raven territory while simultaneously strengthening the Imperial power.
“Excellent judgment. Your Majesty.”
And most of the officials who understood the meaning of the words of the emperor agreed with him.
Even the slightly repulsive officials seemed to empathize with the emperor’s remarks.
“This is a prudent decision. Your Majesty.”
“I truly salute you in your grace. ”
So all the officials contend with the emperor’s remarks.
There were some people with a bad look on their faces.
Beautiful Mediterranean with long ears.
It was the late High Elf Shamir Bershael, who was the leader of the current Elves and all the heretics.
He didn’t look so good the whole time he heard the Emperor’s story.
‘… What a snake-like figure. ’
The Eurencia Empire arrived in a frenzied escape after losing the home of life due to the Great Invasion in Kranid.
There, with the help of the former Emperor of Urencia, the Elves were able to set up a new nest within the Eurensian Empire.
The Marquis’s seat at the end of its position through the exchange of magical skills.
In the process, there were many words and many talents, but it was clear that it became one of the pillars that supported the empire.
‘But I don’t think I got the line right…. ’
The former Emperor of Urencia, who was not a tyrant, but was not interested in ejaculation.
It was Shamir who abandoned him and held hands with the Duke of Bismarck to strengthen the position and strength of the heretics.
It was only a while ago that I realized that it was the wrong choice.
‘Even on the same side, I didn’t know the indiscretion of attacking furiously…. ’
Somehow, in English, he knew the same Elves were killed during the Bismarck rebellion.
That’s why I recognized the irregular face of Emperor Bismarck.
He could not be deeply loyal to the Emperor.
‘… There is no alternative…’ ’
Just to hide your insides and look at the emperor pretending to be nothing.
That was all the Grand Chamberlain Shamir Bershael could do.
At that moment, the emperor turned his head to see if he could see himself.
The eyes of the late Barshael and the emperor facing him.
Earl Bershael quickly bows his head and avoids the snow.
One, Emperor Bismarck seems to have already noticed something.
‘As expected, you noticed. ’
He also knew that on the day of the rebellion, many Elves in the palace were killed by their rebels and Bergslayer.
‘Then it’s difficult to go together. ’
The most obstructive of all the heretics.
Due to the nature of the elf with the habit of extending damage to members throughout the tissue, this would lead to a half-life of the whole elf.
Therefore, it has come to mind that Bismarck is no longer able to accompany the Elves for the rest of his life.
Suddenly, I saw the look on the Marquis of Bershael’s face with a strange hatred.
In the end, it became a situation for Bismarck to keep the “loss” in mind.
The emperor clears his mind for a moment and speaks out.
“… Then I’ll consider sending in an investigative unit. Who would want to go to the Inquisition? ”
The silent treatment.
Seeing that there were no teeth, Bismarck continued to speak as if he had anticipated.
“You don’t seem to have any opinions. Fine, then I’ll decide. Earl Bershael.”
Earl Bershael quietly replies as he is named.
“Yes, Your Majesty. ”
“I need you to head over to Raven Lands. Is that possible?”
I asked if it was possible for the Emperor.
Although it is a question of the nature of the request, who would disobey the words of the emperor?
It was practically an order.
Earl Bershael is forced to answer as he cries and eats mustard.
“… Got it. ”
“I trust the late Lord Bershael. I trust you’ll do well. ”
Bismarck laughs as he finishes his words.
I didn’t see the duchess, but that smile gives me the creeps for some reason.
As if he had foreseen an uneasy future ahead.
* * *
Prince Hardin went straight through Sang-woo’s subspace to Earth.
He took almost nothing else with him when he ran away.
Your Majesty, please be healthy…
Don’t worry, Lord Bahrain.
The prince disappears from space after answering confidently.
He stared back at Bahrain dazed.
In fact, I was a little curious to not follow him because he seemed to follow me wherever the prince was going.
Lord Bahrain… Are you all right?
Raven, who was standing next to the prince, asks Bahrain.
At that, I focused on Bahrain’s dazed eyes and looked at Raven.
… Did you notice that?
I’m spilling Mana so much, I can’t tell…
Bahrain grins at Raven’s words.
I see….
Are you all right, sir?
Quiet question, Raven.
One, it couldn’t have been okay.
Bahrain’s Mana Core is crumbling.
Manacore was the foundation of keeping Bahrain’s flesh clean, even though Bahrain was an old man.
And when it collapsed, it meant his life was dying.
That can’t be right. Haha. This is killing me.
Hmm…
Raven sighs because of Bahrain’s mixed smile.
I couldn’t think of anything to say.
One, looking at Raven like that, Bahrain tapped his shoulder.
It’s all right. Don’t worry about it. I’ve lived this long. It’s time to go. Hahaha.
Bahrain’s skin and hair were aging enough to stain my naked eye as I spoke.
If you keep looking, you won’t feel it, but if you look elsewhere for a while and look at Bahrain, you might feel something has changed a bit.
I was getting old that fast.
Perhaps I don’t want to worry the emperor who supported Bahrain until the end.
It seemed like it was gone.
Lord Bahrain…
That’s good. That’s really good. More than that….
Bahrain silently said something to Raven.
Then, the surprised Raven.
But Lord Bahrain, that will shorten your lifespan.
I know. One, if we leave it like this, it’ll scatter into thin air. Why don’t you pass it on to someone?
Bahrain says he wants to convey something that will scatter into the air.
It meant that he would deliver his Manacore.
His Last (1) End
