Jae-ho shook his mouth hard at the emperor.
The strong testosterone and aroma emitted from the whole body are enough to appeal to a person who is easily influenced by others.
In addition, the emperor used to focus on Jae-ho's tongue-tickness, as he added the chills he had prepared for favor with his superior being.
"Well, as you can see here, the Emperor can feel that this is not an ordinary flower. Haven't you heard of it? The flowers I deal with are very unique, and many celebrities are looking for them. One of them is King Malkant of the West.….”
No matter how much he hid his identity, he was an emperor who knew the situation in the continent.
He knew that Jae-ho's flower items were unusual.
"And have you not heard the story? The little king of the Rasel Kingdom recently changed something...….”
I heard that, too.
It was so vain that I let it slip, but on the other hand it was so vain that I clearly remembered it.
"The little queen was chosen by God...….”
The reason for the spread of such rumors was apparently due to the invincible longevity of the plants.
After eating it, people who knew nothing spread the rumor because they became younger and glowed all over their bodies.
"You know me, right? I'm wearing a spirit makeup. Successor of the Spirit Makeup, who gave the Qin-tto-Bullo-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-Long-
"Hmm......."
"I don't know what kind of disease you have. But I don't lie? I'm not a doctor. But if you sprinkle one of these wild plants, it's all wrong!"
He was an emperor who was ready to die and tested his successor.
However, it is natural to be excited to hear that he can live now.
Nevertheless, it was not easy to get over.
'Yes, I've been eating it so easily.’
Jae-ho admitted.
Does it make sense that a few words in the first place add up to your liking?
Jae-ho kept his mouth shut for about 10 minutes afterwards and finally got a definite response from the emperor.
"... ...when you see something so desperate, you want something like it."
"Yes, as I said, I hope the Empire will empower the Rizellan forest conquest. You know that, don't you? I've heard that the church is blocking our way to the Liesel Forest right now."
"Yes, they are, anyway, the ones that exert the greatest power in dealing with demons.”
I didn't leave it to them for nothing.
"And another."
One of the most important and sensitive.
"Promote Prince Gentrno as successor."
"......I'm rather embarrassed to say so confidently."
Although the emperor himself showed affection for Gentrno, he could not feel good about receiving this kind of interference in domestic affairs.
Moreover, it was like shaking the Emperor's life.
"What does it matter to you to come back to life?"
Jae-ho's outspoken remarks, which were completely fearless, continued.
"And to be honest, the other princes weren't young. The Third Prince was the worst of them all."
The three princes who only saw Gentrno's panties, and the third princes who saw something different than light.
It was obvious what the condition would be like without telling.
"Huh, remember, there are no fingers that don't hurt when you bite."
The emperor spoke as if he were warning, but Jae-ho knew that the emperor was placing more importance on the glory of the empire.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have tricked his sons by using his stand-ins.
'But you're gonna have to start adjusting my strength.’
Jae-ho took a step back.
"If your Majesty regains his health, you will have plenty of time. And..."
One word that followed was a decisive blow.
"The days of such a strong empire will be even longer."
the emperor's most important security of the empire
Wasn't it the princes he was most anxious about?
"......good. Like you said, life to die anyway. I'll give it a try. Only!"
He attached a condition.
"The condition is to finish analyzing the unidentified flower through the people of Jim.”
Maybe it's a poisonous plant.
"Whoo-hoo, that's good."
Jae-ho nodded satisfactorily.
* * *
Many people, including the Empire's outstanding healers, herbalists, priests, etc., came forward to examine the suspicious flowers.
Naturally, no trace of toxicity was found.
That's why it looks even more suspicious.
They were desperately opposed because they couldn't let the emperor eat this.
But despite the opposition, an incident occurred that made the emperor's own determination firm.
One of the emperor's doctors was caught trying to sneak it away.
In fact, it wasn't the only one who was swayed by such desires.
It was because everyone who had the eye to see noticed that it was a great flower.
Even if you don't know whether it's Bullojangsaengcho or whatever.
One blinded by greed eventually committed the crime, and Jae-ho noticed the change in the wild plants he had returned.
The emperor was furious and caught the one who stole the money and cut off his family as well as him.
'It's embarrassing for the Emperor.’
Anyway, the emperor decided to try Bullojangsaengcho at Jaeho's suggestion.
If you dare to be greedy rather than afraid of the emperor, it means that it is definitely not an ordinary flower.
You may try gambling.
But there's a problem.
He was under extreme stress and was injured in the process of siphoning off the plants.
The flowers on Jae-ho's hand have excellent vitality, but Bullojangsaeng-cho was more sensitive than that.
To the point where it is impossible to withstand the desires and extreme stress of greedy human beings.
"This is... sorry...….”
The emperor apologized to Jae-ho.
I wouldn't dare to value it if it were Bullojangsaengcho.
When such nonsense happened within the imperial palace, the emperor was in a state of shame.
'But not bad for me.’
I'll be able to get a better lead on this deal.
"It may take a while to re-create the invincible plants, but won't you be able to hold out until then?"
He smiled bitterly at Jae-ho's words.
I read the mean intention contained in it.
"You're thinking of giving it to me after you've been to the forest of Liesel."
"What if the Bulloozoa grows safe by then?”
"쯧. A very scary man. Threatening this body.”
To say so, the emperor was not the face of a threatened person either.
"Okay. The Empire will add strength to your Rizelan forest conquest, king of Alsia."
The cause was sufficient.
It is clearly human fault that the elves lost their homes and were driven out.
It was no wonder that the empire, which is the representative of human beings, would come forward to reverse it.
"Hoo-hoo, thank you. Oh, and....”
Jae-ho pulled out a box packed with luxury from the inventory.
"This is a gift for you."
"Hmm?"
The emperor, who checked the contents, tilted his head.
"This is..."
"It's the same material I and the 5th prince wore."
“……….”
How am I supposed to use this?
"Maybe you can use it especially usefully."
Depending on whether or not you can see the true face of the horrified emperor, you will be able to judge the danger of your opponent.
"......hehehe."
In the end the emperor put it to one side with a laugh in vain.
Anyway, it was a precious gift.
It was a clothes that was nowhere else in the world.
* * *
Jae-ho who negotiated with the emperor.
Then Gentrno, who hurried to Jaeho, sat face to face.
"......I'm sure they've already been there.”
"Yes."
As if all the preceding princes were questioning Jae-ho, they asked him what he had talked about over the course of days with the emperor.
They didn't even recognize their real father, so it was natural to show impatience.
But Gentrno asked something completely different.
"Did you make it?"
There is only one important thing for him who has already made a secret agreement with Jae-ho.
Are you sure you're promised the very next emperor?
'You look most like the Emperor in a way.’
Other emperors judged that Jae-ho had a friendly relationship with the emperor, so the first thing they checked was the emperor's health condition.
I had no choice but to pay attention to any little thing if I could score on my father, the emperor, through Jae-ho.
But Gentrno was only interested in the throne.
No matter what happens to your father, the important thing is to take over the throne.
It was the same with the emperor.
No matter what their sons are, they said it was first to qualify as the next emperor.
"Unfortunately, I didn't get a definite answer."
Jae-ho spoke frankly.
Gentrno's face that is distorted at the same time.
"But I heard one thing for sure. You just have to do what you do now."
“…….”
The emperor certainly had Gentrno as the most likely next emperor.
However, he did not directly reveal the truth.
It was because the emperor did not want it, and he confirmed that Jae-ho's threat with his life was not someone who would listen.
So I turned it around and said,
Just like we've done so far, we can continue.
"Okay."
And Gentrno certainly understood the meaning.
The determined glare of his eyes was the proof.

Jae-ho and his party were treated with the utmost care by the imperial palace, and it was only a week after they returned to the Elysia Garden.
Twinkle Twinkle
A golden cart full of gifts from the Empire, as well as a group of precious foods that enhance their abilities, like Jaeho.
"What a lovely palace!"
said the finished meal, pounding on the stomach.
I've raised a lot of bonus points that can only be raised by no-ga-da.
"Can't you get a cook like that somewhere?"
Jae-ho shook his head at the question of completion.
"Can you get a royal cook?”
That was nonsense.
Meanwhile, Buffalo and Goldus, who had now decided to join Jae-ho's side, were whispering away from the group.
At first glance, it seemed like he was plotting something, but...….
"You see, if you follow Alsia around, you'll fall for anything."
Buffalo told Goldus.
"Because I thought I had betrayed my life for nothing. But look at this. Thanks to that decision, I'm still next to Alsia.”
A miraculous decision that betrayed once but not betrayed the second time.
So Buffalo could guarantee that among the brown bear guilds caught by Jae-ho, it worked better than anyone else.
"......it's not that great to be proud of."
Goldus said sullenly.
"Because that doesn't mean I'll bow below you."
"Hey! I'm the one who suggested that you should follow, putting everything else aside! So please stop treating me like a senior!"
"Don't talk nonsense! You're on deck and I'm the deputy captain!"
"Hey! Why am I putting you on except for Jean? You're the same 'subordinate'
"No. I told him Alsia was definitely the deputy captain.”
"If you do that, you'll tell me I'm a deckman at first!"
As their voices rose a little, they ended up hearing each other's between the two.
"What are they talking about?"
Done-sik asked Jae-ho.
"I don't know. It happens sometimes."
Jae-ho didn't want to evaluate that stupid argument.
"Oh! Welcome, Your Majesty!"
The tightrope that just arrived at the entrance of the Elysia Garden.
"How'd it go?"
Jae-ho nodded at his question.
"Hoo-hoo, that's great."
"What's the matter with the garden?”
"Of course. Oh, and while the Spirit Park was away, it began to operate."
"Oh, really? Did the pirates ever listen?"
"Rosemary helped."
“…….”
It was obvious what her help, one of the chairpersons of the summary tribunal, would be.
"Also, new people from Kruma are learning to work little by little by little."
Everything was going smoothly.
Just enough to focus on preparing for the big event.….
"You're going to get busy again.”
Jaeho said to Zulkan.
"Gather the elders of each Elf tribe. Because I have to talk to them.”
an impulsive act
It was the first thing to inform the elves, and to discuss them deeply.
It was an expedition to find their hometown.
