Emperor! Can You See Stats!?
# True Enemies
Condition?
At that moment, Yurius tried to look at the Emperor's stats window.
[???]
[??? - Unavailable.]
However, nothing is displayed. And the Emperor opened his mouth as if he had seen through it.
“Is it weird that I don't see my stats? ”
Do you even know what it's like to look at stats? ’
The boundary on Yurius' face grows stronger. Seeing that, the emperor sighs.
“You have no idea. I gave you those abilities, sent you back in time. ”
“Excuse me?”
Yurius' expression suddenly distorted. The shocking thing is, my head doesn't work right.
“Is that true? ”
“Ah! I don't have that kind of power, to be exact. What I've done is I've been working with you. ”
"The Emperor, two hundred years ago, and he's working together?" ’
Yurius is close to calming down. But it was so amazing that I needed time to sort it out.
Once dead, he was sent to the past by the great emperor Sharnos 200 years ago. I don't know what it is, but it's also unlikely that it's a lie, given the ability to see stats.
And secondly, the monarch was the leader of the Church, which had always been the enemy of Yurius. But why did this happen?
Yurius calmly opens his mouth. Unlike before, my tone was slightly polite.
“If that's what you're saying, I should thank you. ”
He was dead in his previous life. Yurius changed many things in the beginning of his second life, no matter how intent of the Emperor. It was a great blessing to give him this opportunity.
“But you just said you have a condition. The ability to bring me back to life and see stats was for a reason, wasn't it? ”
“Yes. You must have noticed something. ”
The Emperor also accepted it with a playful look.
“I was the one who gave you the quest to come to the Eastern Continent. A lot of what you've been through since the regression has been my fault. ”
“ ……. ”
The emperor opens his mouth slowly to the silent Yurius.
“I want to go back to the world I was in. I need your help to do that. These are my terms. ”
“ ……!? ”
Yurius reacts with a puzzled look.
“Then why are you alone? Weren't all three players gone? ”
In recall, he saw quests received by three players, including the Grand Duke. The results are unknown, but at least two hundred years ago, all the players disappeared and peace on the continent was found.
Then they should have gone back to their original world as a reward for saying 'Return’.
“Phew……. ”
When the Emperor heard the question, he sighed, saying, "Get lost."
“I couldn't go back. That's why I've been stuck here for 200 years. ”
“Why? ”
The emperor gnashes his teeth at Yurius' question.
“Because of that wicked old man. ”
“Old man?”
Yurius tilts his head. However, the emperor did not answer the question and switched to another topic.
“Don't you think that's strange? This is not a virtual space created by our world. It's a completely different world. I've made a so-called dimensional shift. ”
“Move Dimension! ”
Yurius knew the word through the player's knowledge. Again, this world was not a man-made virtual space.
“But then how did I get the player's ability? ”
The ability to see stats is clearly something you would see in a game. How did the Emperor grant him this ability?
He replied coolly.
“It's because my soul entered this world through a capsule. ”
According to the Emperor, he came into this world as an accident.
The function of the virtual reality capsule to transmit consciousness, the ability of the hearing gate to transmit the soul, combine and blow his soul to the wrong world.
“And as I said before, it's not my ability to bring you back into the past and give you stats. ”
“ ……!? ”
Then the emperor explained that there were other assistants. The black glow began to spread from behind the Emperor's back, as if answering him.
Pot!
The radiance infiltrated the statue of the great lord in the center of the temple. And at the next moment, the statue was the same as the Great King, but a thicker yet loving voice came out.
[I'm Heimdall. A true god in this world.]
“God?”
[Greetings, Lord!]
“Huh?"
Yurius stares at the waist with a curious look. Huanglongs greeted the statue with a golden glow.
[Be respectful to the Lord.]
“ ……. ”
There, Huanglongs trembles as he reaches for Yurius. But Yurius opened his mouth staring at the statue and the Emperor.
“What's going on here? What do you mean" God "?”
He knew there were only three churches that could use their power on the continent. It is the Tripod of the Holy Nation. I have never heard of any other god.
The statue answered straight away.
Those are not gods.]
"Not God"? ’
“Yes. The gods in the Holy Land are not, technically, gods. It's a kind of bug that flew in with the system. ”
The Emperor explained the supplementary explanation. As he flew into this world, his consciousness and linked systems also caused problems.
Odin, Medite, Mars
These were the names of the artificial intelligence that was at the center of the seventh-generation virtual machine, not God. As the spirit of the great lord flew into this world, the artificial intelligence began to recognize and activate the world into a kind of game.
[At first I thought there were just unusual beings.]
The statue spoke again. The three players who moved dimensionally were quite interesting in God's view.
Moreover, the flying system was a fairly convenient tool for him, a god from another world.
[That's why I made myself a player.]
So Heimdall, the original master of the world, modeled after them, gave humans the player's ability.
[The human world was just too noisy.]
So Heimdall decided not to banish the humans of other worlds, but to use them to his advantage.
[Bring the Humans of the Other World to the temple.]
Yurius can only recall what it was like to have a temple assembled by three people.
“You're the one who gave three players from other worlds a quest to make things right? ”
[Yes.]
Heimdall's intentions were right, allowing players to quickly calm the continent of chaos.
So, except for the three other players from other worlds, they were ordinary people who were given the game system by the power of God. It was clear this was also the case for Yurius, who gained the ability to see stats.
“Hmm?"
A question came to mind in Yurius' mind for a moment. If the Holy Spirit is a fake and this Heimdahl is real, then why did he create an evil organization like the Church or the Church?
And why does the continent now have the false gods of the Holy Land with the true gods?
“Huh?"
Yurius finds a slight contradiction here and opens his mouth.
“Then are you sure you gave me a quest? ”
[Yes. I've already achieved the goal of meeting me, so I'll take care of the quest.]
Tiring!
[You have completed the main quest 'The Darkness of the Imperial Court’.]
[You have completed the quest 'Forgotten Divine Cult’.]
[Achievements are greatly increased.]
[Achievements 90%]
At the same time as Heimdall's voice, two quests that have remained incomplete have been completed simultaneously.
“Huh?"
But when Yurius saw the message, he became even more curious.
[What's going on?]
“I have one quest left. ”
[That's impossible.]
“No, there certainly is. ”
Yurius examines the stats window. He still had quests left.
[Urgent Quest - Call of the Holy Nation]
[Call of the Holy Nation (Urgent) - Go to the Holy Nation. There are those who call out to you. Time Remaining: 23 days]
“Wait? Come to the Sanctuary? ”
The emperor frowns and turns his head to the statue.
“Have you ever given a quest like that? ”
[I've never done that.]
Heimdall quietly dismissed the question. In the beginning, the Holy Nation was ruled by a divine system instead. There's no way he would tell you to come to such a place.
“Oh... no! ”
The Emperor suddenly sighed.
“You've been hiding it well, but you've been found out. Was it the old man? ”
“A revelation?”
Yurius looks puzzled and looks at the Emperor. He turns his head and cries out at Yurius.
“You! Where did you hide the bowl? ”
“The bowl?”
I've heard this expression before. But before he even noticed it, the Emperor was exhausted.
“Your brother! The man who killed you in your past life! ”
“Leonhard? ”
Yurius becomes even more skeptical. And then Bridget tried to kidnap Leon. Of course, I had enough escorts in place for that.
However, the emperor heard the words and wrapped his head in a sigh.
“Ha... It would be too late if I put it in plain sight." ”
“What the hell are you talking about? ”
“I don't have time to explain! Take my hand! ”
Yurius holds hands with the Emperor in disarray.
Grrr.
"Sword?"
The emperor draws his sword and lightly circles the air.
And at that moment!
The landscape around the two of them begins to move away like a gunshot.
Shhhhh!
“Phew!”
Yurius feels that his body is being sucked into something. At the same time, the surrounding landscape is distorted without cause.
Pot!
“Almost there! ”
“What about here?”
At last, the strange distortion subsides and Yurius looks around in surprise. It was in a dark temple until just now, but what you see now is a city with tall buildings lying around it.
A laughter bursts from Yurius' mouth.
“Is this Falling Yang? ”
Surprisingly, the Emperor arrived at a blind falling sheep hundreds of kilometers away with a light swing. It was unbelievable even though I saw it with my own eyes.
However, without any room to be amazed, the emperor filled his tongue.
“As expected... it's too late. Look at that."
After seeing where he was pointing, Yurius rarely opens his eyes.
“Oh!”
Blind buildings squat here and there like storms passing by. There must have been a fierce battle. But Urius was surprised not by the building.
Paan!
He swiftly kicks the ground and flies into the building. Yurius was in a hurry for a reason. Before he set off to subdue the Bridge, he handed over some outstanding UAVs for Leon's escort.
‘Since the bridge is aiming for this guy, it is better to put a prime number on him at the expense of power loss. ’
It was chosen by Yurius to be the most trusted and respected.
‘Her skills will save her life at worst, but I have a bad feeling. ’
* * *
Hours before Yurius and the Emperor moved to the Fall.
“Shhh!”
Leonhard once opened his base at the desk in the Oval Office and got up from his seat.
‘There's hardly anything to do these days, even if you sit down. ’
The Jegall Nebula, which at least became a marble, left to subdue the Bridge. The blindness that most masters had left had nowhere to go.
Queek.
As he opened the door and left the office, someone quickly approached him.
“Your Highness. Are you done?”
“Ugh!"
Leon looks at the person who spoke to him and smiles awkwardly.
“Haha... I'm going to take a break now. ”
“I see. I'll escort you to your quarters. ”
“ ……. ”
The voice was hard. Leon looks at the article with a shivering look on his face.
“Hmmm... Please. ”
“ ……. ”
Here. Beatrice starts walking silently towards Leon's place. Leon felt overwhelmed by her. Of course, he knew she was an excellent knight.
As a bonus, everyone in the imperial court knows that she has a special relationship with his brother Yurius.
‘He looks fine. You have to be so shrewd... What do you think she likes? ’
Leon grumbles in his gut and steps behind her. The conversation with her was office like this. But if you're smart, maybe you can tell me a little bit more about it like an acolyte.
Beatrice is a difficult woman to talk to and treat gently.
‘I don't want you to hear me clinging to that woman. ’
Although he doesn't look like one, Leon has no choice but to be wary of her, even if he is afraid of Yurius.
Fortunately, it won't take long from the Oval Office to Leon's place.
“Almost there. Have a nice night. ”
Beatrice stops at the door of the bedroom and bows politely to him.
“Good day to you. ”
Leon quickly replies and tries to open the door. But then.
Chang!
“Excuse me.”
“Hmm?"
The sword is drawn before the horse. Beatrice pulls Leon back and points a sword at the bedroom door. Leon looks surprised as she pulls out her sword.
“What's going on? ”
She replied briefly.
“There's someone inside. ”
“In my bedroom? ”
It was already dark. And there is no way that a visitor to Leon could be in the East continent. Beatrice's sharp senses captured a weak popularity in the bedroom.
“I'll go in first. ”
She tugs at the door hook with a cautious face. She was quite nervous because she had been warned by Yurius in advance.
Thump.
“Ah!”
However, Beatrice, who jumped into the room, was rarely surprised.
“What about you?”
The faint popularity she felt in the bedroom was someone she knew. She even greeted her father a few times in the Holy Land.
“Hmm? What's the Duke's feast doing here so far? ”
An old man with a limp white beard. Archbishop Galeus of the Holy Land looked up at her curiously.
He was in Leonhard's bedroom when he told me he was returning to the Holy Land.
“What brings the Archbishop here...? ”
“You look like a priest in your outfit. What do you want from me? ”
But even before she questioned him, Leon came inside. He decided it wasn't an assassination by spilling his guts.
“Oh!”
Galeus rises from his seat and bows his head deeply.
“My name is Galeus of the Holy Land. Are you the Second Prince of the Empire? ”
“Is that so? Is there something I can do for someone like you? ”
León greets him with a look of ignorance. If you say Archbishop Galeus, isn't he the most powerful man in the Holy Nation, except for the Pope?
There is no reason to come to him after he has already been pushed away from the imperial family.
Something's fishy. ’
But Galeus spoke as if he had made a promise.
“I have come to you with the trust of a great man. Come with me to the Holy Land. ”
“Trust?”
“Yes. Do you remember when I visited the Emperor's Emperor a long time ago? ”
“You?”
Leon tilts his head. Then I thought I heard a similar sound from somewhere.
“I think I heard it. But what do you want from me? What do you mean it's a trust?”
“Hmm...”
At that moment, Galeus gave Beatrice a single glance behind Leon.
“It's not that hard a story. There was a mistake in our interpretation of the trust. We just changed who comes to pick you up. ”
When Leon heard that, he rebelled.
“I mean, you were supposed to go to the Holy Land, but it turned into me. ”
“It's all my fault. ”
Galeus bows his head and apologizes, then opens his mouth again with serious eyes.
“Then let's go. Great men await you. ”
“Now?”
Leon was a little embarrassed. It is not a difficult story to go to the Holy Land. However, his sharp senses felt something not quite right from Galeus.
‘As I thought, he's hiding something. ’
“Haha... I like the offer, but I'm not the one who decides my current position. ”
Leon is told to burst into laughter.
“When my brother returns, I will take permission and visit the Holy Land immediately. Then there will be no problem... ”
“No. ”
“ ……!? ”
At that moment, not only Leon but Beatrice looked at Galeus with an angry expression.
“I'm afraid I can't do that. The Crown Prince wishes to come at once. ”
“What……. ”
León looks at him with a look of absurdity rather than anger. Even though the Holy Kingdom and the Three Generations ordered it, we couldn't call the Imperial Empire emperor like this.
However, Galeus was looking at him with the expression that it was already settled.
‘Ah! He's not normal either. ’
After finishing his thought, Leon firmly resolved in his heart.
This feeling is never wrong! Follow him and your life will be in jeopardy. ’
He's been making a lot of nonsense, mostly from Yurius.) I've been in a lot of trouble. There is only one conclusion.
“I'm sorry, but I can't follow you right now. Take your brother's permission. ”
When Galeus hears the answer, he bursts into laughter.
“Haha... Can't you change your mind?" ”
“None.”
“I'm sorry.”
“ ……!? ”
Leon flinches. Galeus, who was having a conversation a little distance, starts walking toward him.
“What?"
“I'll ask for sin later. Neither the Crown Prince nor I can disobey the will of the Great Ones. ”
“Holy shit! ”
Leon looks bored and starts to take a step back.
Does that mean you're going to force him to take you? This is just kidnapping!
“Let's go.”
Galeus reaches out to Leon as soon as he reaches out for him. But there was someone who stopped it.
Fit!
“Huh?"
With a very small sound, Galeus takes a step back. The reason for my retreat was simple.
Screaming.
A piece of the white robe he was wearing was cut off. If he had not retreated, blood could have spurted as well as clothing.
“We will not allow access beyond this. Apologize and leave. ”
Beatrice draws her sword. She quickly approaches Leon and whispers.
[There is no time. Listen to me very carefully.]
“Phew…. ”
Galeus gives you a slight admiration. It was because he was the most unmanned man on the Western continent, and even he saw that the blow was quite sharp. Getting him to back off is not something anyone can do.
That slutty girl is finally paying for her meal! ’
León's face turns pale as she forces him to step back. He thought he could escape somehow. But Beatrice's face is shaded on one side.
[As soon as I blow up, go outside and ask for help.]
[……!?]
León's face hardens again as she murmurs loudly.
“What's that sound? ”
“I'm not sure I can hold out much longer. ”
* * *
“She was like this a week ago? ”
“That's right.”
“ …… ”
Yurius stares at the bed silently. What he was worried about actually happened.
“What are the details? ”
Haynes replied with a anxious expression.
“The congressman says there's no harm to life. The problem is that his consciousness isn't returning, but I checked with him at Jegal Sega, and he said it's temporary internal injuries that only take time to recover. ”
“Phew... at least I'm glad. ”
Beatrice lies flat on her bed. It was already like this when Yurius arrived. As soon as he arrived, he had to listen to reports such as the Blue Ceiling Power.
“Leonard Hart is missing? And Beatrice is unconscious? ”
“It's all my fault, the director. Punish me! ”
Likewise, the Knights of the Sharnos, who were left behind for Leon's escort, tried to kneel calmly. However, Yurius' expression was still.
“Wake up. It wouldn't have worked if the lords had gone." ”
“But!”
“It's not your fault. I need to think about this for a minute. Please step back. ”
“… Got it. ”
Yurius answers decisively and bites the knights. Now I have too much to think about.
“ ……. ”
Again, he looks slowly at Beatrice lying in bed.
‘I also don't see any visible trauma. Then there is only one conclusion... ’
His eyes turn to the building where he can see out the window. The office where Leon's lair was located was miserable as if it had been bombed. And the man who was supposed to fight is fine, except he's unconscious? There was only one thing that meant this.
‘There must be a master who can defeat her lightly. And they could be connected somehow, given the fact that he saved his life! ’
So far, the suspect was quickly narrowed down. How many people can easily handle her in the supernatural ranks?
"By the way, when the Emperor mentioned it, he changed his face." ’
Yurius mutters in suspicion.
“Could it be the Holy Land? ”
Many questions and hypotheses passed in his head.
* * *
Soon after Yurius came out, there was a man waiting for him. He scratches his head with an embarrassing look.
“Knng... I'm sorry. I didn't know this was gonna happen while I was watching you. ”
Despite the magnificence, the situation was quite painful. because he was beautifully beheaded.
‘You're quite the cunning inspiration of the Holy Land. ’
“ ……. ”
Yurius opens his mouth for a moment.
“Tell me now, without hiding anything. What the hell are the Holy Nation doing? ”
Yurius has already declared the Holy Land an enemy. I had thought about it before, but there were more than one or two things that were suspicious.
‘First of all, it's a previous life. Why didn't they help me? ’
I heard from Galeus that their enemy is a cult that worships evil gods. However, Yurius had not received the help of the Holy Nation in his previous life. I even went to Beatrice for help.
There, he was heavily attacked by the Church in his previous life. Unlike now, there were many simple assassins, but why didn't they help Yurius even though they were enemies of the Holy Nation?
[The Holy Nation is absolutely neutral. We cannot participate in power struggles within the empire.]
They used to condemn Yurius' request with such words. And his guess is that's why the kidnapping of Leon happened.
The emperor looks into Yurius' eyes and marvels.
“How much sense did you get? He's quick to spot. ”
“ ……. ”
Shroud
The emperor once again lifted his sword from his waist and smiled brightly.
“Then it's worth a hundred words. Go to the Holy See for yourself. ”
* * *
The brawl is swift.
Quack, quack!
With the sound of something exploding, numerous pieces of wood and stone scattered before Leon's eyes.
“Ugh!"
Leon quickly blinds his eyes and nose, vomiting and running out of the room. As Beatrice has said, I want to ask for help. But next time!
“Huff!”
He can't move. A terrifying aura quickly ties up his body.
“Oh my……. ”
Leon looks around desperately. The dust slowly lifts, revealing the situation inside. The inside of the building was blown apart like a bomb. In the aftermath of the brawl, the walls everywhere burst.
“ ……. ”
Beatrice falls to the ground dead.
“I didn't kill him. ”
Then Galeus strides back towards Leon with a cheerful look on his face.
“Then let's go to the Holy Land. ”
Hwa-oh!
As soon as his hand reached for Leon, the dazzling light rose.
* * *
“We're here.”
“ ……!? ”
Leon opens his eyes. In front of him is a huge white walled palace. He knew there was only one building like this on the continent.
“Could it be... the White Palace? ”
The White Palace is home to the Pope of the Trinity! It was located in the capital city of the Holy Nation. But Leon was just on the far east continent. How did he get here?
Galeus answered the question.
“What I used was [item]. ”
“Item?”
“A precious instrument bestowed upon us by the Great One. ”
In his hand is a half-burnt piece of paper.
[space scroll]
“Do you have many of these tools in the Holy Land? ”
“It's very rare, but you can use it for special missions like now. Now, come with me. The Pope's Holy Father awaits. ”
“ ……. ”
León follows Galeus without a word. It's because he knows it's useless to resist. And I couldn't deny that I was interested in the Holy Land.
‘Why did they call me? ’
It was a huge room where they arrived through a magnificent hallway. It was a place where the three Popes had gathered and were entrusted.
“Oh!”
“I'm meeting a newcomer. Welcome."
Two old men in fancy robes greeted Leon with tears. There is no need to explain who they are.
“I... meet the Pope's Holy Father. ”
León was slightly embarrassed, greeting politely. After the abduction, what kind of extreme visions are these?
And after a while,
“Good work, Lord Galeus. Without your swift response, we could have been in trouble. ”
“A compliment.”
“ ……. ”
It was four men sitting across from the table. Pope Odin, an old man with a dry, sharp impression, opens his mouth.
“The gods have many questions. ”
“I heard it was a trust. Can you hear why you called me? ”
Leon opens his mouth carefully. It was nice of them to welcome you, but something was off.
“Haha, Lord Galeus said there was a conflict on the way here. I'm sorry to surprise you. ”
Pope Mars, who was fit and handsome, burst into laughter and gave an apology to Leon. Pope Odin also smiled.
“Don't look so surprised. We brought them to the Holy Land to help newcomers. ”
“Help me? ”
“Yes. I beg your pardon...”
Pope Odin continued, looking carefully at Leon.
“I've heard that the gods are far from the heir to the throne. Is this what we confirmed? ”
“ ……. ”
Leon looked at the Popes with a suspicious look on his face.
"You can't be helping me. ’
“As the Goddess thinks! ”
Pope Mars vomited with a fierce fist.
“God was born to be the master of the continent! But the wrong person took over. This can't be happening! ”
“Master of the Continent? ”
Leon stared at Pope Mars with a serious look. Of course, the emperor of the Sharnos empire is the owner of this continent.
‘And what do you mean, you've taken over? ’
There was only one person who was in competition with him. Yurius' face passes through Leon's head.
“Do you and the Holy See have any grudges? ”
“It's not the same thing. I would have told you to make a mistake. ”
Unlike Pope Mars, Galeus answered calmly.
“A mistake. I don't know what you're talking about. ”
“It's simple. ”
Pope Odin explained.
“The empire's Crown Prince is now named... perhaps Yurius?" He's a fake set up by an evil god. It's a total fraud. ”
"Deceived"? ’
Leon was confused as he continued to speak nonsense. But whether or not the Popes said so,
“A true god from the Great One! That's what he tells us. To lead the continent in the right direction. I've brought a new recruit here. ”
“ ……!? ”
What the Popes said was clear.
Bang!
Something heavy falls into Leon's heart. He opens his mouth with a slightly trembling voice.
“You would strike down an empire and place me on the throne? ”
“Of course.”
The Popes declared in a solemn voice.
“The Temple has already begun. ”
* * *
Same time, Imperial Palace.
Inside the battle, there was a gentle fury.
“What a rude gesture. ”
The emperor was trembling. Originally, he had a letter in his hand, but it was already crumpled. The summary is as follows:
[Execute the current empire emperor who received the evil lord and place the Second Prince on the throne.]
“Are you suggesting that the Holy Nation should interfere with internal affairs? How dare you!”
The emperor shoots at the old man under the battle in terrifying majesty.
“Haha... We expected you to be surprised by this sudden incident. ”
An old man with a deep impression. Pope Medite is here today to learn about the Emperor. However, the emperor was furious when he heard such absurd requests.
“Are you telling me to execute my firstborn son and sit down for a second time? And why is that absurd? ”
At first, I thought the Emperor was joking. But I kept talking to them and they were talking really, really seriously.
“Begone! I will surely blame the Holy Land for this!" ”
“ ……. ”
However, even in the days of the emperor, the priests, including Pope Medite, were found.
“I'm sorry.”
“ ……!? ”
“Your Majesty! The knights of the Holy Land! ”
“Aah!”
Boom!
Suddenly, the gates of the Feud are broken and knights in white armor pour in. Their identity is the paladins of the Holy Land.
“Your Majesty!"
“Please step back! ”
Dozens of imperial crises surround the emperor in layers. Earl Carlos, the master of the impending task force, made swift progress.
“Drive out the intruders! ”
“Haha… how could this happen……. ”
The emperor stared at the people of the Holy Land with a look of astonishment. Although the paladins of the Holy Kingdom were known to be quite elite, they are not comparable to the imperial death squads.
Moreover, there were countless knights in this imperial palace besides the Near Crisis Bandit. They must be defeated by the Imperial Knights if they are to face them.
What do they believe in? ’
Immediately, the sound of weapons clashing and the screams of the people in the battle turned into chaos.
Grab him!
“Khhh!”
“Oops!”
Of course, the projections were undoubtedly outweighed by the Empire. Once upon a time, the work of Earl Carlos, the superhuman, was absolute.
Kung fu!
“Cough!”
Whenever Earl Carlos wields his sword. An invisible solid wall floods the paladins with frightening speed. It was a well-named defense weapon, but it could also be used for attacks like this.
‘About halfway there. I'm glad nothing happened to His Majesty. ’
The monarch swings an elongated sword and counts his enemies.
The paladins fought bravely, but the number standing was reduced by less than half. Even the guards were injured large and small, but not badly.
However, while observing the situation, the emperor noticed something strange.
The High Priestesses are so eccentric. The paladins didn't lose any strength there. ’
The priests, including Pope Medite, were not even a little embarrassed. You know there are no odds there, but paladins still fight well without losing morale.
It appeared to be overwhelming, but something was fishy.
‘Maybe they have an idea. It's never gonna end this way. ’
The Marquis's ominous premonition remains true. As the paladins continued to fall, the synagogues finally began to move. They raise their hands up around the Pope and shout with a solemn expression.
“May God bless you! And grant them the kingdom of resurrection. ”
“ ……!? ”
Hwa-oh!
A pillar of light rises around them. The pillar plunges through the battle to the roof of the Imperial Palace and whitens the entire Imperial Palace.
And the moment the paladins touched the light!
“Oh!”
“My wounds! ”
The wounds of the paladins, who were groaning on the ground, heal completely. Even those who died instantly of a headburst or fatal injury rose to their senses like lies.
“Whoa!!! ”
Fully recovered paladins plunged into the guards with several times more courage than before.
“What the……. ”
The emperor and the guards suddenly became speechless. I had never heard of such abilities among the synagogues. But I didn't have time to think.
“Evacuate the king! It's dangerous like this!”
Earl Carlos shouts in haste, and faces the paladins surrounded with a stiff face. However, no matter how hard I defeated them, I couldn't hold back those who rose again for long.
“Haha, how could this happen……. ”
The emperor had no choice but to watch the guards collapse, face down. Probably the same is happening everywhere in the imperial palace right now. In his head, the face of my son that I haven't seen lately passed by.
‘Yurius, what has happened to you? ’
* * *
A single gold was drawn in the air with nothing. And the crack opens and a faint blue glow comes out.
Pa!
And then the next moment. Yurius stands before the White Palace. He mutters with a curious face.
“You really stepped over the edge. This is the true art of the Grand Duke. ”
He traveled a long distance with the Emperor's sword, just like when he came from heaven to fall sheep. According to the Emperor's explanation, this was his six-stage draw.
His five-tier tie is to block the space and cut off objects! He further developed his ability and climbed to a distance between space and space.
Anyway, what did the Holy See say? ’
Kuang!
Yurius opens the door to the White Palace. But then you hear a shout from inside the palace.
“Intruders in my palace! ”
“The Pope told me not to let anyone in. ”
“You must catch it! ”
“Yikes! Was there something on the door? ”
Yurius quickly plunges into the passageway. It was nice of you to move him into the palace, but I don't think he's very welcome. But what he had to do here was clear.
‘Leon, I need to find him. They must have been dragged here. ’
Yurius' body blasts through the passageway at the speed of a flash of light.
* * *
News of the intruders soon reached the inner chamber where the Popes live.
“Intruders?”
“I'll stop them. ”
Galeus, who is usually in charge of escorting the Popes, quickly ran out.
“Hmmm……. ”
Watching that, Pope Mars opened his mouth with a splendid expression.
“Looks like the Devil's touch has already gone mad here. We don't have time. We need to start the ritual now! ”
“I agree with you. It will be best if the Goddess agrees, but I can't help it. ”
Pope Odin also nodded with a determined expression.

A week ago, Leonhart replied:
“I'm sorry, could you give me a moment? ”
“ ……!? ”
Surprisingly, Leon did not accept the offer. Rather, he asks for time to think with a complicated face.
“If it is the will of a god, I will respect it. ”
“But the Devil's hand is reaching out, so make a decision as soon as possible. ”
The Popes gave him room to rest with their mourning faces.
Leon sits on his bed and sighs.
“Phew... You're giving me the position of emperor, right? ”
According to the Popes, the imperial palace has already succeeded, and all he has to do is accept his offer and ascend to the throne. Of course, it was his dream place.
But why did he refuse?
I don't know, do I? Is it because they're suspicious? ’
Leon grumbles into his mind.
‘It's suspicious, but it's a great opportunity. ’
The Holy Land was the spiritual resting place of everyone on the continent. It should not be difficult to defeat Yurius and ascend to the Emperor if all the Popes acknowledge his authenticity.
I'm worried about Yurius' opposition, but even his Holy Nation has some mysterious powers.
Do you think he'll just accept it? ’
A temptation came to his mind. Surprisingly, however, the shaking doesn't last long.
“No.”
Leon shakes his head and throws the idea away. For a week, he had a lot on his mind. But at this crucial moment, his answer was always no.
It was his dream to be emperor, why didn't he make a decision?
“ ……. ”
Leon finally came to a difficult conclusion. He was regarded as a genius from childhood, and his pride made it difficult for him.
‘I am not the vessel of the emperor. You're better suited. ’
He saw Yurius gaining the hearts of men on the eastern continent. Surprisingly, many of Yurius' men offer him absolute loyalty.
And even if he is not his accomplice, he soon acknowledges and follows him. Leon has not been able to understand why Yurius has pushed him.
The Grand Duke's Background! And all other talents, apart from the force, were better than him.
But Yurius has somehow surpassed him and defeated the Grand Duke. And finally, the position of the Crown Prince.
Leon couldn't help but admit it with a furious look on his face.
“I had no one. I was the only one in the world. ”
Yes! Leon had a good start point and a lot of talented people nearby, but at least no one was left with him.
It's because Leon didn't get their heart. As a result, he had no reliable friends or followers.
‘I thought it was so spacious to see you wandering around. ’
Such behavior in his standards was meaningless. It was because he decided it was better to divert power from the center with a solid sign than to build a specialty with force.
But every time Yurius travels somewhere, his power rises like a snowball. Even now, everyone knew his name on other continents.
A monarch who follows a man and a monarch who does not.
Leon was not stupid enough to know the difference. There won't be many officials who would really like him if he stood up as Emperor.
As I thought when I was a child, he wanted to be a great monarch like his father if he ever became emperor. I don't want to be emperor under anyone's protection.
Cough!
He clenches his fist with a furious expression. In fact, it's hard to admit the fact out of my mouth for a long time.
“I... lost... to you. ”
Leon, who spoke to himself again and again, cleared his mind with it. And it's hard to solve the problem, but it comes after solving it.
In a minute.
“Phew……. ”
He sighed lightly, and his mind was quite lightened. He thought he had to go tell the Popes his decision.
‘I don't know if I'm new or not, but if I don't accept the throne, it's meaningless. ’
Gurgle!
However, before he got up from his seat, the door opened with a loud voice.
“Who?”
“Excuse me.”
It was two popes who stepped in on an urgent step. They ask with an urgent look.
“Have you made a decision? ”
“I got off. What's going on? ”
“Too bad we don't have time! Just tell me the results! ”
‘What the hell... ’
Leon frowns. I was in a hurry to reveal my true colors. Again, they didn't need themselves; they had other intentions.
“My answer is no. ”
“ ……. ”
A moment of silence passed through the room. The two Popes quietly exchanged their eyes.
‘Then I shall begin. ’
‘Got it.'
The two began to approach Leon with a firm expression.
* * *
On the other hand, Yurius, who was speeding through the corridor, finally encountered an obstacle.
“Good to see you again. ”
“Today, the name you call me is not new. ”
Yurius smiles and sees the man who stands in his way. It was Archbishop Galeus, a superhero of the Holy Land.
“It was my mistake. But there won't be any mistakes today. ”
Galeus picks up a giant battle hammer with a hard face. Yurius has broken in here, and he doesn't think we need to talk.
‘The author must be an apostle of the evil god. ’
Galeus takes a stance, thinking how despicable it is to deceive him. Yurius was a formidable foe, but he didn't think he could handle it.
‘Even though it is similar, my side is superior in the experience. ’
He saw Yurius rise to his level with his own eyes. But Galeus was already in Stage Five decades ago. Yurius was like a sunfish to him.
Yurius smiles as he notices the thought.
“Before we fight, let me ask you one thing. ”
“What is your question? ”
Galeus is cautious about what he's up to, but he doesn't know what he's talking about.
“Why did you save the guard knight when you went to get Leon? ”
Hmm?
Galeus suddenly remembers Beatrice. Her father, Duke Dios, the patron saint of the Holy Land, faced her, and overcame her without causing any further harm.
“I see you two know each other. ”
“She's one of my most precious people. ”
“ ……. ”
Galeus scowls at Yurius with a surprised expression and gives a straight answer.
“I didn't want to kill my granddaughter. ”
“Indeed……. ”
Yurius nods. Galeus asks a question without his knowledge.
“But why did you ask me that before the fight? ”
“Hmm?"
Yurius looks at him with his eyes wide open as if to see what he's saying.
“Of course, I'm not trying to save your life, since you gave me your credit in good faith. ”
“ ……!? ”
And the sword was much faster than Galeus reacted.
Kuang!
First, the huge hammer he was holding was shattered. Galeus opens his eyes, watching a piece of iron splash. It was because I felt a burning pain in my chest.
“Oh my... ”
At the same time, a blood stream rises from the heart. The blade pierces a finger away from his heart.
If Yurius had wished, he would have suffocated in a heartbeat.
“ ……. ”
Galeus stares at Yurius with a hollow look on his face. His common sense doesn't make any sense. But Yurius answered before he even asked.
“I trained for a separate teacher. That would be the answer, right?”
“ ……!? ”
It was so fresh, but in fact, the previous battle was a natural outcome.
The reason is the difference between learning!
Combat simulators in the player world trained by Yurius were designed to help develop abilities much more systematically and more quickly than here.
Phase 5 has been around for decades!
The two have different training periods for decades, but winning and losing was much better for Yurius than for Galeus, who simply struggled or practiced individually.
Bang!
Galeus drops the handle of the hammer he was holding.
“You've lost. You've made great progress in the blink of an eye. ”
“Hmm? You don't want to go any further? ”
Yurius tilts his head. In the case of the Church, those who worship the transcendent do not fear losing their lives. Galeus admitted defeat so easily.
“I've achieved my goal of holding you captive. He showed mercy, but he had no reason to give up his life in vain. ”
“Purpose?”
Yurius tries to ask for more details. But at that moment.
Bloop
“Huh?"
A shadow of a man rises between Galeus and him.
Is this an ambush?
Yurius tries to swiftly aim his sword at the shadows. However, the shadow quickly formed a human figure.
“Huh?"
Yurius was greatly surprised to see the figure. It was because he knew the shadow that turned him into a man.
“Leon... not you. Who the hell are you? ”
Blonde, still not looking 20 years old, he must have been Leonhard, but something was different about him.
However, what was not limestone felt something familiar to Yurius, who resembled Leon.
"Where did you see him? ’
“Hmm……. ”
Finally, the mouth of a man who looks like Leon was opened. The first thing he did was look around as if he were looking at Yurius.
“Not bad, but not my enemy. I'm disappointed in him. ”
Disappointed? ’
Yurius was also intrigued by the man. Why does he look like Leonhard? What does it mean to be the enemy again?
“Do you know me? ”
“ ……. ”
The man clenched his fist instead of answering.
“ ……!? ”
When Yurius looks at you puzzled, the man smiles brightly.
“It's been a long time since human flesh has been worn, so it may not be in control. ”
“Body?”
Yurius felt a very ominous gesture at the moment. The fist of the man who looked like Leon was not that big. But the moment a man pushes his fist forward lightly!
Yurius feels his fist grow like a mountain.
“Oops!”
It didn't help that I flew backwards. Yurius quickly becomes consumed by the power of his fist. I didn't feel the pain until I heard how fast and strong it was.
Ewwww!
The outer wall of the palace is broken. A few layers of defenses quickly unfolded by Yurius were useless at all. The intangible armor across the body also lost its strength due to strong pressure and shrunk.
“Cough!”
Boom, boom, boom!
Yurius vomits blood and bounces through the outer walls of the palace. The bouncing body does not stop easily. I knocked down the walls and the trees and threw them to the ground.
“Cough!”
Yurius groans painfully and makes sure he's still alive. You can't just die like this, can you?
[It's okay. He's not dead yet. Collect!]
“Khh……. ”
Huanglongbing checked his condition on his behalf, but Yurius was already out of his mind. It's completely incapacitated in one blow. I never imagined he would look like this since I finished training before.
In a blurry vision, the last thing he saw was a crevice shining blue. He's lost his mind.
* * *
“Well……. ”
Light leaked in as my eyelids opened slightly. I hear voices as I return my hearing.
“The king is awake! ”
“Call the senator back! ”
“Lord! Are you all right? ”
When Yurius opened his eyes, what he saw was the faces of his officials. I saw knights, including Haynes, and the men from the same eastern continent as the Sea of Gale.
“Here?”
The first answer was the Jegall Nebula. It seems that time has passed, and he has come back blind.
“The Lord was losing his mind for about a full full day. He was hurt pretty badly by his whole body. ”
“Full moon?”
Yurius' memory returns momentarily. Going to the Holy Land! Saw a man who looked just like Leon! And finally…….
“ ……!? ”
He flashes as if he's splashed cold water on his head. My head was clear. The Jegal Nebula continued to report in the meantime.
“The Chiropractors have already returned to their senses. The rest of the bridge was almost wiped out. ”
“What else? ”
“Ah! Lord Beatrice is awake. I will come to see you soon... ”
“It's not like that. ”
Yurius shakes his head.
“ ……!? ”
“I'd like to hear from the Empire. ”
The Empire, of course, did not refer to the east. The surrounding face hardens quickly. Something very bad must have happened to Chuck.
But I can't keep doing what he asks. Heines opened his mouth as a representative.
“I actually sent a letter from the Empire. I order you to return immediately. And……. ”
He couldn't connect the words with his grief face.
“Bring it. ”
Gaaaah!
As Yurius opened his letter, he checked the Emperor's Seal first. It must be the original. And Yurius grimaces, checking the contents.
‘I expected it, but it's serious. ’
[The Emperor Yurius is hereby banished to the Crown Prince because he has freely marched into the Eastern Continent with his enemies. And if he returns to the Empire, he will be remanded to military court immediately. (Approximately) Emperor's Deputy Leonhard von Sharnos]
“Ugh... ”
Yurius' henchmen, especially the knights' faces, have changed. I don't know what happened, but things changed as if heaven and earth had opened up while they were in the East Continent.
“ ……. ”
Yurius opens his mouth for a moment.
“I need a little rest. Can everyone please leave for the day? ”
“Your Highness.”
They leave him alone as if to care for Yurius. How does he feel to be surrounded by sinners? However, what Yurius himself thought was completely different.
It's almost time. ’
After the popularity completely disappears and a little time passes.
Pot!
The man who Urius was waiting for reveals himself.
“How are you feeling? I'm sorry I didn't get you out in time. ”
“Hnng... ”
Yurius lets out a ballmen, looking at the naturally occurring Emperor.
“Let's cut the crap and get to the point. You were supposed to tell me what I wanted to know, right? ”
“Huh? You're not shocked? ”
The emperor opened his eyes as if he were looking at a strange man. Now Yurius has lost everything. There appears to be an enemy that cannot be dealt with by his own power.
In fact, the Emperor had thought of dozens of ways to calm him down before he arrived here.
But Yurius, whether he's joking or serious, has been overconfident.
“I've been beheaded by that Leon guy in my past life, and now you think he'll blink? ”
“Huh……. ”
The emperor glances at Yurius and takes a light look.
“Well, what do you want to know first? ”
Yurius replies briefly.
“The man who looks like Leon. ”
“It's going to be a little longer. Are you okay? ”
“It doesn't matter.”
“Then let's get started. ”
The Emperor flicked his finger.
Tiring!
