Nanomachine Emperor - Nanomachine Emperor chapter 140

crow lady.

It is the name of the mace given to those who disbelieve.

A great disaster occurred whenever the crow saint appeared. Its name was so tainted with fear that a kingdom could disappear overnight.

But for hundreds of years the name had not been mentioned.

This is because no enemy threatening the Holy Church has appeared for hundreds of years. She was the secret weapon and ultimatum of the Holy Church.

‘I thought he would bring out Epsilon to hunt the deadly sins.’

A woman with black hair in an iron cage.

Wearing an eyepatch and bound with chains, she was Epsilon, the crow saint.

An ominous look settled in Cardinal Bahamul’s eyes as he looked at her.

‘An ominous weapon. But for the Holy Church. for our giving. That should be used.’

Cardinal Bahamul was instructed to move Epsilon by the pope’s instructions.

Epsilon itself is a huge mass of curses.

It is the worst weapon that does not go well with the Holy Church.

The pope himself took out Epsilon, which had not been taken out for the past 300 years.

To hunt deadly sins.

To attack the empire that hid that deadly sin.

‘The Empire worships the Demon Church. Dare, dare!’

The news that Cardinal Amir and Saint Jasmine were imprisoned in imperial chains was shocking.

The Pope judged that the Emperor was brainwashed by the Demon Church, secretly brought out Epsilon and ordered Cardinal Bahamuul to attack the Empire.

This is absurd in terms of international diplomacy, but the opponent was the Devil’s Church.

In order to hunt those who violated common sense and justice, they too had to borrow evil for a while.

Besides, it’s not just epsilon.

There were many saints who were said to be the strongest.

Is that all?

Cardinal Bahamuul looked up at the sky.

‘dragon.’

There was a dragon behind the Holy Church.

Even he, a cardinal, had only heard rumors, but it was the first time he had seen the truth.

Before long, a huge castle wall came into view.

Arya Youngji. A heavenly fortress located on the way to the capital of the empire.

It’s the fastest way to get to the capital, but it’s an invincible armor that’s said to have never been captured!

However, no matter how undefeated the fortress was, it would not be able to withstand this much power.

“Attack! It is a temple!”

*

“Unless the pope goes crazy…!”

“Aryan territory has been captured!”

“At this rate, we will reach the capital in two days!”

inside the strategy room.

The ministers are talking noisily.

It is to receive real-time situation reports and plan future work.

However, the impression of Deus did not know how to straighten.

They entered the war against the Empire without any warning or even a warning. It was such a sudden attack.

The number is small. However, with that small number, they captured the heavenly fortress, Arya Territory.

“How long did you say it took for the Aryan territory to fall?”

When Deus asked, the Minister of Marshals said with a trembling voice.

“Three… three hours. It became a mess in three hours…”

“Hasn’t Arya territory never been captured since the establishment of the empire?”

“As you know, it was a situation where soldiers were recruited from all the surrounding territories… so the number of soldiers inside the Aria territories was smaller than usual.”

Soldiers were called out to defeat Archduke Carlos and the knights of the Archduke’s family.

It was because it was judged that the imperial family’s standing army alone could not handle all the forces of the Grand Duke’s family.

In order to deal with it at once without retreating an inch, it had to be accompanied by that much force.

Taking advantage of that gap, the Holy Church invaded, so it was said that Arya’s territory was captured in 3 hours.

but i still can’t understand

Arya’s territory is a heavenly fortress.

One hundred soldiers can stop ten thousand.

Is it possible that such a place would be captured in 3 hours just because there were few soldiers?

‘The power of the Holy Spirit is strong.’

opponent is strong. That was it.

“What about the numbers?”

“I think the number is about 1,000. To attack the Aryan territory in a surprise attack without the Empire knowing, a higher number makes no sense.”

No matter how much the Holy Church is shrouded in a veil, the Empire’s information power cannot be ignored.

If a large number of soldiers had gone out, they would have noticed right away.

No, I should have known before going out. And I would have been prepared

But this time I didn’t know. Of course, I couldn’t even compare.

In other words, it was a sudden departure ceremony. It was natural that there were not many of them.

1,000 people at most.

Or less.

“How many soldiers are currently in the capital?”

“If you include the 30,000 standing army soldiers, there are more than 80,000.”

arm only.

Arming them without forced conscription is a staggering number.

If adults are conscripted, the number may exceed 200,000.

However, only this arm is an elite army.

Properly trained soldiers per hundred.

80,000 elite troops are enough to turn the surrounding kingdoms into ruins.

If you join the knights here, you will be invincible. can’t lose

Archduke Carlos sent 200,000 soldiers to conquer the north, but most of them were conscripts. The actual elite were less than 50,000.

That’s why they used banned drugs.

No matter how many dragons there are, even if there are crow saints, there are a thousand people.

Looking at the simple figures, it is 80,000 : 1,000.

A gap of 80 times.

incomparable In terms of common sense, yes.

‘Aryan walls could not be penetrated even with 100,000 troops.’

However, it was the Aryan Wall that defeated an army of 100,000 with a thousand men.

And they broke through the walls of Arya in 3 hours with 1,000 soldiers.

how to think about this

No matter how few soldiers there were, there were many high-ranking mages and knights in the Aryan territory.

‘Why is the Pope suddenly?’

The Holy Church moves according to the will of the pope.

The pope ordered an imperial attack.

why?

First you need to know why.

You need to know the reason so you can deal with it.

Even if I send a messenger, the answer will not come. If we had been able to communicate, there would not have been a surprise attack.

After organizing his thoughts, Deus spoke to the ministers.

“Bring Cardinal Amir and Saint Jasmine.”

*

Cardinal Amir and Saint Jasmine were no words.

I had been locked up for quite a while, so that was understandable.

“Why is the New Holy Church suddenly attacking the empire?”

“Did the New Holy Church… attack the Empire?”

Cardinal Amir asked, startled.

Deus nodded at this.

“Half a day ago, Arya territory was captured by the Holy Church.”

“There is no way the Pope would have allowed it.”

It happened because the pope allowed it.

All the will of the Holy Church is the same as the will of the Pope.

“It must be because of Crown Prince Reinhardt.”

Then, Saint Jasmine opened her mouth.

Reinhardt. Hearing that name, Deus frowned.

“Is it because of that ridiculous nonsense about the crown prince being a mortal sin?”

“Deadly Sins is the main god of the Devil Church. However, the only God that exists in the world is Alpha. If the pope moved, he would listen to Alpha’s revelation.”

divine revelation.

The Holy Church is moved by the will of the pope, but such a pope is driven by divine revelation.

If Alpha had revealed, the Pope had to comply.

“Did the Lord God even call the crown prince a deadly sin?”

“If the crow saint moved, yes.”

Even though she didn’t speak, Saint Jasmine was aware of Saint Crow’s movements. I wonder if there was something that the saints could communicate with each other.

Then, Saint Jasmine gave Deus some advice.

“Even now, it’s not too late. Remove Crown Prince Reinhardt from his post as crown prince and dedicate him to the Holy Church.”

Dismiss Reinhardt.

Avoid the wrath of the Lord given to the Sacred Church…

An all-out war with the Holy Church is something that must be avoided.

Both the Empire and the Holy Church will be destroyed.

If numerous kingdoms following the Holy Church joined in, there was a possibility that it would escalate into a world war.

So, if there is a revelation from the main god, it is only right to dismiss Reinhardt.

“Think of the safety of the empire. Thousands of innocent people will bleed.”

“······ There is no way that the crown prince is a mortal sin. It is impossible.”

“By any chance, didn’t the prince suddenly change?”

It was as Saint Jasmine said.

Reinhardt suddenly changed.

Until then, he would have been incompetent.

At some point, it broke out of the egg and came out and solved all the problems.

The execution of Archduke Carlos and the peace treaty in the north were also thanks to Reinhardt.

But what if that’s not the case?

What if Reinhardt didn’t come out of the egg, but because he turned into a deadly sin?

“The seven deadly sins come suddenly one day. In the body of an ordinary farmer, in the body of an aristocrat, and even in the body of a saint. The host, who has become so sinful, gains great power and authority. Just like His Highness Reinhardt did.”

“Please refrain from talking. Do you dare stand up for the crown prince in front of me?”

“One day, a humble farmer suddenly had the insight and knowledge of a great wizard. One day the virgin conceived. However, the end was ultimately a sin. They burned families, villages, and kingdoms, leaving a mark of curse. much less.”

“…”

“If it were the king of sins, the mortal sin, how great would the curse be? You couldn’t handle it. That’s why the crown prince would often disappear. You won’t be able to use the power within the empire. Aren’t you still in the Empire?”

It’s a sound that fits every phrase.

Reinhardt was often away.

He refused even the title of emperor and wandered the world.

It is because it is a mortal sin.

“If he was swallowed up by sin, he would no longer be the crown prince you know. Rather, he is the enemy who killed Your Highness. so······.”

“Shut up.”

Deus was furious.

Life poured out of his eyes.

“your majesty. Calm down your anger and rationally…”

“I told you to shut up.”

Spot!

Croft’s sword aimed at Jasmine’s neck.

Saint Jasmine had no choice but to keep her mouth shut.

“That child is Jim’s child. Jim said he distanced himself, but he’s not stupid enough to not even recognize him as a disciple.”

Reinhardt has changed.

suddenly. without notice.

He became lucid and no longer screamed in pain.

It’s a strange situation for anyone.

Anyone can question Reinhardt’s change.

But we had to see what Reinhardt’s change had brought about.

Deus overcame fear because of Reinhardt. I was able to get rid of the sense of helplessness that I couldn’t stand against Archduke Carlos.

Is it a sin to be the one who gives confidence to others? What is a mortal sin?

He is so concerned about the future of the empire that he even gives up the title of emperor to his younger brother. It was Reinhardt who united the divided siblings into one and united the imperial family.

Launel, Kazan, Karmon, Leone.

All four princes were following Reinhardt.

Up until now, children who ignored Reinhardt or treated him as someone who didn’t exist.

Most of the empresses also support Reinhardt.

Even Prince Persephone.

Of course, he did something unbelievable.

The divine lord born in the north is Reinhardt. I still can’t believe it.

however. Even so.

‘That child is Jim’s child.’

Reinhardt was his own child.

Haven’t you already come back far? There would be no need to go further.

‘It’s late, but I’ll embrace it now.’

Reinhardt would be cleared of the false charge of being a mortal sin.

given? Pope? new church?

dare.

You want to attack the empire and brand even the crown prince?

Deus stood up from his seat. with sad eyes. With eyes he hadn’t seen since he assumed the position of emperor.

“OK. If you want a war, I will make a war.”
