Episode 175 Emperor Nephritis

After being attacked by demons, Rob suggested that when he was trying to escape through the evacuation passage, he suddenly felt the impact on his neck, and his consciousness was distant.

In a dream - a dream I've often dreamed of lately.

It's a dream where someone helps you. Someone I don't know or have never seen. It has a gentle atmosphere and protects itself with a pleasant voice that sounds gently on the chest.

The voice of salvation resonates in your head from the darkness. In a moment, a ray of light appears in front of your eyes.

"Uhh...."

My body is shaking. I must have been sitting in a cage the other day. Why does the floor appear in front of my eyes when I wake up? And the pressure on the abdomen. I understood that someone was holding me.

"Hey, what the hell is going on?

Speaking out, I stopped walking.

"Oh, finally awake, Emperor."

The Emperor - Nephritis Chartier Ouro Sufera looks up at the person holding himself. He was a young man I had never seen before.

"Oh, my lord! Know who I am! Get away from me as soon as you can!

"No, I still need you to help me."

Extremely cold eyes. Emotionless expressions that seem to think that people's lives are no different from the stones that are rolling there. I feel the fear of my whole body trembling when I just stare at it.

"You will free the Last Soul."

"Ha!? What are you talking about? There's no way a thief can do that!

"You have no choice. It'll take some time, but I can make you a puppet by messing with your head right now.

"Hih!?

Crazy. I thought so. It means you don't choose the means for your purpose. For this reason, it creates an atmosphere where you don't care even if you turn to the enemies of the world.

"Oh, who the hell are you...?

"As a human being, we seek the ultimate."

"Ultimate...?

I walked again. There is no doubt that this is the Imperial Palace. Then, as he goes in this direction, we reach the place where the Last Soul rests, as he says.

(What is the purpose of this person...?

When I think about it, I remember the "Chaos Clan" that is attacking here now.

"Are you... a ghost?

"Destroying me is the only thing keeping me alive."

It seems that he despises demons.

"I can't give the demon the Last Soul. That's what I got to create the supreme being. I won't give it to anyone."

"Well, I'll wait! Are you familiar with what it looks like!

"Of course. If there was one, it would be demons, redheads, but not enemies."

Red hair...? I heard a word of concern, but when he had red hair and mouth, why did he relax his cheeks pleasantly?

I'm sure it was this way.

It is a small chapel that lies even further behind Kaneko Mansion. It's a killer landscape, and there's only an altar in front of it. The man went straight to the altar, and put his hand against him. Then, thinking that the line of light ran on the altar, the altar was cut off by separating the Zuzu and the line.

"Nah, what a punishment!?

"Shut up. There is no god in this world."

The altar, which has been cherished for generations, has been lightly broken by thieves.

(Ancestors... I'm sorry!

This altar is supposed to be set by God and has been cherished since the creation of the Imperial Palace. Every day the emperor shall live as a servant of prayer on this altar.

The souls of our dead ancestors return to this altar to have a conversation in their hearts. A very important altar to protect.

"And yet...!?

The altar was destroyed and a staircase leading underground emerged. Nephritis stares at the man in disgust. But the man tries to go down the stairs with his gaze on his cool face.

I regret not being able to do anything. I have used my knowledge to make the world a better place as an emperor, but I can't do anything by myself after all.

(At a time like this... if someone like you in your dreams were by your side...)

When I thought so, I heard voices from behind. It's a familiar voice.

Rob!

"Emperor!

It was Rob of The Five Ministers who showed up there. There are others like Linnet and others I've never seen before, but I'm sure we're friends.

My trusted Rob and Linne rushed over and calmed me down.

"Well, how did you know this place was here?

Arkoko threw up.

"Shit, he's a light-mouthed, useless guy."

Suddenly I thought I felt a floating feeling in my body and was thrown to the floor.

"Emperor! You deserve to die for treating the Emperor like that!

"Only the emperor's hijab won't be strong."

"What are you..."

I've never seen Rob so angry. I'm honestly glad that you're angry for yourself, but I'm getting increasingly worried about the brutality that comes from men.

Of course, I trust the "five ministers" who serve me. But no matter what Grouse and Fire are specialized in fighting, the others are not so effective.

I still don't know how strong a man is, but I also know he's confident enough to get in here alone and take the emperor.

Nephritis wonders if it is really okay to let him fight like this. Then, a dagger is pointing at the pitch and neck.

"Don't move. If you move, the Emperor will be hurt.

"Kh... you coward...!

I'm being held hostage and Robs can't move properly. If something happens that makes a gap for a man....

I hope so, but suddenly the ceiling collapsed and something fell. The man is also pulling a dagger without thinking that it was an unexpected event.

I think this is the right time to run toward Rob.

"Hmm!?

Men reach out and try to catch them, but the bugs Rob summoned appear behind Nephritis and act as walls.

When Nephritis reached Rob, Linnet burst into tears and hugged him.

"That's great!

I know a hundred things about her body that she always cares about. Of the "Five Ministers", she is undoubtedly the best friend to talk to.

The man lifts his shoulders and looks at what has fallen from the ceiling. For him, hate existed, but for Nephritis it was an object of salvation.

But it's a human being. Besides, she was a familiar woman.

"It's hurting... that worked!"

I woke up in the rubble.

"Oh, Mother...!?

"Nh...? Oh, it's not yoyo! Hisashi Beep!

The god of martial arts in the [Spiritual Instrument]. The Rushing Princess was Himehime Hatsuki's successor.
