0.01 Second Sword Master Episode 151
“Sobbing. I would never have expected to see him become His Majesty the Emperor while I was still alive.”
After ascending to the throne, the first meeting of key figures was held, but Horace had been unable to stop crying.
“Lord Hores. Stop crying now.”
“Yes. Why do you keep seeing only tears on this happy day?”
“I’m sorry. Stop because I’m so happy…”
At the meeting today, the kings representing each kingdom were also present.
Horeth, covered in tears, clears his throat and announces the start of the meeting.
Then he looked in my direction and smiled benevolently.
“Your majesty.”
The title of “Your Majesty” was very unfamiliar to me, but I took it for granted as I was already intoxicated with bravado and infatuation.
“The first agenda is what to do with the kingdoms gathered under the name of the Berak Empire, and the direction.”
“What methods are there?”
“Yes. The first is to abolish the status of a king, take the names of each kingdom, and leave them all as castles of the Berak Empire.”
“What next?”
“The second is to preserve the royal authority, leave the names of each kingdom as it is, and let them serve the Berak Empire.”
I glanced at the kings sitting on either side of me.
There will be people who want the kingship preserved, and there will be people who don’t.
Normally I would choose to wipe out the kingdom, but-
“I will preserve the kingship as it is.”
“…Really?”
“Your majesty. I want to stay by your Majesty’s side.”
When he said he would preserve the royal authority, conflicting reactions came out.
Even if the earth collapsed, even if the sky collapsed, Elberstein, who had a reputation for being loyal only to me, was crying, and the other kings breathed a sigh of relief.
The fact that I do not get rid of kingdoms was through various experiences.
There was a reason why they built empires and put kings everywhere, not in the game world, but in the real world.
I got rid of it for no reason, but it only gave confusion to the empire, and I had to have someone to manage the territory, but since the position was not very high, conflicts in many ways would arise.
Also, while managing that vast land, there were a lot of guys who really wanted to make this place my territory.
In that case, it would be much more stable to leave the kingship alone while maintaining the kingdom.
There was also the advantage that I didn’t have to bother with managing them one by one.
“Maintaining the kingship means that there is a sense of responsibility. Make sure Jim doesn’t bother you unnecessarily.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The word “Jim” came very naturally.
Still, it seemed to me that this was better than saying that I was the principal.
“And make a portal in the Kala Kingdom as well. So that if something happens, we can send reinforcements from here right away.”
Then suddenly left and right became quiet.
It seems that my order came quite unexpectedly.
“Your majesty. Are you really thinking of setting up a portal in the Kala Kingdom?”
“Are there any problems?”
Horace glanced at him and continued.
“That is······. If you install a portal, you can come over to Eli Kingdom anytime from the other side.”
In other words, they were worried about the Kala Kingdom’s rebellion.
I asked Karman who was silent.
“Karman. If I open the portal, would you use it for rebellion purposes?”
“······No.”
The answer is late.
I’m a bit uneasy about this.
Aren’t you really supposed to withdraw as Horeth said?
But just as he was about to withdraw, the bluff began to boil.
“I don’t care how you use it. If you want to rise up in rebellion and sit here, do so whenever you want.”
“Lungs, Your Majesty!”
“How could you say that…!”
I also looked at the other kings and said,
“So are you. If you want to challenge Jim at any time, send an army through that portal.”
“…!?”
“Wouldn’t that give you a bit of energy in your boring daily life?”
I left the words and got up.
I had a hunch that this guy’s bluff was causing an accident again, but it seemed too late to turn around.
* * *
“······Whoa!”
After Aslan was gone, the kings could breathe comfortably.
After becoming emperor, Aslan, who had been frightened just by looking at him, looked even more frightened.
That must be the dignity of the continent’s first emperor.
Hores looked at those kings quietly.
“Soldier. Perhaps His Majesty provoked the kings too much…”
Horeth shook his head at Aaron’s quiet question from behind.
“That’s not true, Captain Aaron. Look at their faces Aren’t you absolutely terrified? I’m rather glad His Majesty bluffed that way. With those words just now, all impertinent thoughts they had implicitly disappeared.”
Come and see me whenever you want.
At that time, I will burn all the kingdoms that have maintained the royal authority to ashes.
This was Aslan’s message to the kings.
And didn’t they know Aslan’s power better than anyone else?
Being able to go through the portal to the Kingdom of Eli meant, on the contrary, that Aslan could also go to his opponent’s kingdom.
The fear that he could descend at any time if you offend him.
That fear will settle the empty hearts of kings.
“You are indeed Your Majesty. How can you control the hearts of kings already?”
“Aren’t you the first emperor of this continent? This much is nothing to him.”
Horace looked at his golden throne with a warm smile.
As long as Aslan exists, the Berak Empire will become the most brilliant country in history.
“By the way… You just left without listening to the most important agenda.”
At the words of one servant, others nodded their heads.
“Ah! I guess so.”
“Oh, that was the most important item.”
The servants let out a sigh.
Then, out of curiosity, Elberstein asked them.
“What the hell was it about?”
“Ah. King Elberstein doesn’t know.”
They said with a smile.
“Your Majesty has built the strongest empire on the continent. And he made the lives of his people rich. The entire country is in a state of peace. However, the seat next to His Majesty is extremely cold.”
Then, Hariel, who was quietly holding the teacup, opened up! Coughed up
Her servants looked at her for a moment and then spoke her words.
“It is really unfortunate. He lived for the people all his life, but there is no one by his side.”
They each burst into a sigh.
“So, shouldn’t we bring in the empress as soon as possible?”
“hahahaha. You are right! Now you have to think about the heir too.”
As if the topic was quite interesting, all the kings, knights, and subjects each added a word.
Hariel only listened to their discussion with a mixed heart.

“I’m selling His Majesty’s portrait~!”
“Today only special price!! We are selling a crystal ball containing the majestic figure of His Majesty the Emperor!”
“This restaurant was personally renovated by His Majesty the Emperor! We are selling the special food that His Majesty loved to eat!”
Even after the coronation ceremony of the emperor, the atmosphere in the castle continued to be festive.
There were only products related to Aslan, and artists were busy drawing and sculpting Aslan’s face and his dignified figure.
“The whole world is Aslan.”
Aslan on the left, Aslan on the right.
Aslan in the front and back.
His head is dizzy.
“But it was definitely him.”
The man recalled the impression of Aslan at his coronation ceremony.
And I felt the energy that he gently spread.
He was the very power that had awakened him from his long slumber.
Isn’t that why you came here?
“You can’t get in here without a pass.”
From noble mtl dot com
So he tried to enter the palace to meet Aslan, but was blocked by the guards.
“I have to meet the emperor here.”
“What?”
“This means that I have to meet Aslan, the emperor.”
“This guy! How dare you call His Majesty’s name carelessly!”
“You are a suspicious person. I’ll catch you and find out why you’re trying to see His Majesty.”
As the atmosphere became tense, he let out a short sigh.
“Then what can I do?”
It was when he was muttering that and slowly trying to radiate golden magic.
“Ah~ I’m full. I really ate a lot today.”
A child with a big belly came toward the entrance, eating a lollipop.
“Hmm? What’s up everyone?”
“Ah, are you here?”
The knights politely set an example.
“While this suspicious person started a riot by saying that he would see His Majesty… We will figure it out.”
“What? You want to see Aslan?”
Flame, who was in the body of a child, looked up and down the opponent.
And the moment our eyes meet with him.
“Omg!”
He was terrified as if he had seen something he couldn’t see.
The man said in a pathetic voice.
“Flame. Have you still not changed your habit of stealing food while changing into the body of a human child?”
“Hu, stealing and eating! This is definitely… No Hey, why are you here?”
“You? You are short.”
The man’s eyes began to grow sharper and sharper.
“Okay. 300 years have passed, so you must have lived arrogantly without getting hit by anyone.”
“Now, wait a minute. That, that’s not what I mean…”
Koo Goo Goo-!!
The man’s body swelled up, revealing the huge figure he had hidden.
“I’ll fix your cheeky personality again today.”
* * *
What a peaceful day.
My bedroom was on the highest level of the palace.
So when you go out to the terrace, you can clearly see the appearance of the palace.
“Now the Mage Tower is being built to some extent…”
The mage tower seen in the distance was rising high, and the wizards had already entered and started working on it.
And the defenses installed around the walls were still being repaired.
It seemed like this would be enough to hold out for quite some time no matter where the attack came from.
“The problem is that it costs too much.”
It was a problem that money was inexhaustibly broken to maintain that, but it was worth considering it enough.
Otherwise, you won’t be able to withstand the invasion of demons.
“Then, shall I rest for a while?”
Strangely, demons do not attack.
They must be aiming for a big shot.
Then, in the meantime, wouldn’t it be okay for me to be a little indolent, focusing only on the defense facilities?
Thinking of that for a moment.
Kwaaang-!!
There was the sound of something exploding loudly.
When I looked up, thick smoke was coming up from the entrance of the palace.
“Ehh. Okay. You can’t leave me alone.”
Like throwing a stone into calm water, this game system can’t see me standing still.
However, the stone the game system threw at me this time wasn’t just a small pebble.
“What, what is that?”
A huge body and two wings in golden scales.
“Kwalala lala-!!”
A gold dragon was roaring loudly in front of the palace with its wings spread magnificently.
