We Live in Dragon’s Peak

Imperial Palace

"Amira, you should eat too much and break your stomach."

"Amira, drink and get drunk."

"No, no, you can't drink too much in the morning, can you?"

We laugh at suggestions like Euphilia and Nina.

Sure, I've been feeling better before, but I think it might be a good strategy to suddenly get worse again.

If Gildia shows a willingness to reject Gildia's tyrannical demands for ruthless reasons, would she be a little bit less upset?

Yeah, I don't think so.Rather, Alex's position and Amira's own might just be pushed.

So, the only laughing story is during breakfast.

Still, everyone is careful to lighten Amira's mind even for a short time.

I'm going to put Euphilia and Nina into it and boost the space. [M]

But it came out in the back.

I was stunned by Amira-san, who was sitting next to me.

Amira writes on the writing paper with Priscia in her arms.

"What?"

Amira's letters are beautiful and very easy to read.Besides, the paper for writing is a fine material.

When I first saw the paper Amira used for writing, I was surprised to see whether high-quality paper was widespread around the border in the kingdom of God.

But the reality was a little different.

The village chief's grandfather told me that all the villagers who were leaving the village in search of money or encounters would bring home writing paper for Amira every time she went home.

Amira is so loved and familiar to everyone in the village.

Amira cuts the paper into small pieces so as not to waste it, and writes in small letters.

I can't speak, but there's nothing wrong with communication.

"... Hmm. You can't eat too much or drink too much, but shouldn't you stay up late?Ha, did Amira know about last night? "

I was supposed to sneak out, but in the end I was exposed to everyone.

Are we all good or am I stupid? [M]

Well, Amira is the descendant of the fighting gods, and you'll notice if she moves in the same room when she's asleep.So it should be good to conclude that everyone was good, not me. [M]

After all, the village chief's grandfather apparently didn't notice.

"Hmm? What were you doing?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't do anything suspicious.Just don't sleep on unfamiliar land.So I went for a little walk. "

"You're a healthy boy. But be careful.Whatever you say, it's better to be less conspicuous in the city. "

Last night, Gwen stabbed me with a nail.

Mr. Alex's family and the village chief's grandfather are kind, but the idea of divine supremacy is still spreading in other regions, and it's dangerous if people and other races stand out.

"When I was young, it wasn't so bad."

"In the old days, were there famous people among the tribes?"

I don't suppose there were no slaves.However, the idea of lifting the tribe of gods to the ground may not have spread that far.

My grandfather looked back on my question. [M]

"About 400 years ago, there were just a few small countries around here, quiet countryside.By that time, both the tribe of God and the tribe of man had the power to acquire fame.But it is. The Empire has conquered this area, and it has changed a lot.About 300 years ago.The Imperial Palace began to appear. "

Ah, and I leak my voice.

I can't believe you heard the word "Imperial Zongfu" from Grandpa.

To my surprise, Grandpa raised his long eyebrows and raised a question mark.So I decided to change the direction of the story.

"Mayor, can you tell us a little more about the Imperial Palace?"

It's also important to be mindful of Amira, but we need to resolve the question Gwen left last night.Otherwise, it might be too late to grab the back of your hand and create a situation.

Nguyen said that the Magludo, which had gone wild since the morning, was the Imperial Palace.

What the hell is the Imperial Palace?If we don't know that, we might make a mistake dealing with Magrudo.And I felt that the mistake would lead to great destruction.

The village chief's grandfather was surprised that I showed interest in the word "Imperial Zongfu", and stared round his eyes.

Looking at me, Amira looked at me as surprised. [M]

"Well, I was told by a dragon traveler who met me on Dragon Peak before I went down to the flats.Watch out for the Imperial Palace. "

No, actually, I didn't know until Gwen told me last night.But you can't name Gwen, and you have to lie.

In response to my question, Grandpa took a slow sip of tea and took a deep breath several times before finally reacting.

"Did you hear from a dragon traveler?"

It took me a long time to say it to make time to tidy up my head.I'm sure he was wondering how to explain it to us. [M]

Grandpa told me about the Imperial Palace without doubting the origin of my question. [M]

"The emperor of the Belisarius Empire claims that the tribe of God is the supreme species."

I think the Gods are the best species in the world, so they conquer and destroy other species.

From our point of view, it's a selfish claim.There seems to be a high level of support from our tribe of gods, and there is no one in the Empire who disputes the idea of the Emperor.

"So, the connection between the Emperor's ideas and the Imperial Patriarchate?"

Is it true that the emperor who is the ruler of the tribe of gods is the best being?

I asked if there was such an organization in the administrative office, but Grandpa denied it.

"No, the Imperial Palace is not an organization of the court.That's right, if you say so to your tribe, it's like religion. "

"Does that mean that the Imperial Palace worships the Emperor, just as we worship the Goddess of Creation?"

"Yes, God is the best species in the world.Among other things, the Belisarius empire is the private idea that stands at the top.And I began to call those with such thoughts the "Imperial Palace."

About 300 years ago.

At first, it seemed to be an initiative presented by a great scholar of the Divine Clan.

It spread gradually over the years and penetrated into the tribe of God.Then, extremists dyed in civilian thought appeared and began to popularize activities to repel the evil that shadowed the emperor's prestige.

Initially, however, the consciousness of civilian thought was directed against rebels and corrupt officials who defiled the emperor's rule.

The worshippers of the emperor have spontaneously fought the rebels and exposed injustice with their eyes on local politics.

In doing so, it gradually gains support from people in Shirai.

It will become popular because it will defeat corrupt officials on their behalf and eliminate the bad guys in the world.

Then, signs began to spread to the court as a third-party presence to improve administrative soundness.

"From now on, I suppose by that time, ideas were spreading among the nobles."

Thus, the ideas proposed by one scholar penetrated deeply into the divine tribes within the Belisarius Empire.

"I wonder when it started.I started to call those who have such ideas the Imperial Palace. "

The Imperial Palace is not an organization of the court.But even the officials of the imperial court have become such a huge existence that they can't take it lightly, and they always have a name like the government.

But it is common for organizations that have grown too big to begin to have power and influence and to go mad.

The Emperor's Office began to change gradually.

Grandpa told me that the original idea had begun to be interpreted more radically.

"Once upon a time, there were people as healthy as you and other races.There were many excellent people in heaven.However, from the idea of the Imperial Palace that worshipping the Emperor and the divine tribe are the best, it seems that these people also seem to be in the way. "

Then the prominent ones besides the tribe of God were rejected, and now they say.

So, is the Empire dyed with the ideas of the Imperial Patriarchate?

"No, no, that's not true. The tribe of gods is wise.Everyone admits that there are such ideas, but not everyone is in tune. "

That's why Grandpa laughed, saying that if you don't stand out and even look at the Imperial Patriarchate, it will be a tribal journey for people to take care of.

"Slaves have time off, and if you save up money, you can go on a trip.Well, it may sound disgusting to me to say the word of the gods. "

"No, Grandpa's been good to us, and I think he's a good god.Of course, Amira and Alex, too. "

Yeah, yeah, Mr. Amira nods to me.

So, judging from the village chief's story, does Gildia and Magrudo mean the Imperial Palace?

Gwen didn't mention Gildia, but looking back on his behavior, he feels like the Imperial Palace.

Grandpa nodded with a little thought.

"My lord, what is it?I'm sure you're getting mad because you're made up of rural luxuries.But be careful with that guard guy, Magrudo. "

"Yes, I'll be careful."

I haven't told everyone about what happened last night.Still, it should have been told that Maguld is a man who has to be vigilant in the Imperial Palace.

By the way, the village chief

What is it?

"I was worried about that earlier.This wasn't imperial territory a long time ago, was it? "

"Yes, the Belisarius Empire began in a much more southern country."

"Does that mean...?"

It was a question that came to mind.

Alex's family wants to serve the Emperor as a god of war.But isn't that empire different from the empire of the Belisarius Empire?

I mean, this area was originally a small country, right?

Besides, he remembers the history taught by the Titan Demon King before.

The kingdom of the demons and the kingdoms of the gods were said to have been further east thousands of years ago.

Even the kingdom of the tribe of gods destroyed by the rulers of the demons and the defeated fighting gods, it is a long story from the east.

And Mr. Alex wants to be the god of war of the emperor who ruled the Belisarius Empire?

Grandpa answered my question with a smile. [M]

"Ha ha ha, you're very knowledgeable.You know a lot about history, don't you?Then I'll tell you a little more. "

Alex's family certainly wants to be resurrected as the emperor's god of war.

But Grandpa says it means not the emperor of the once destroyed kingdom of God, but the emperor of the kingdom that now holds the kingdom of God.

"Does that mean that if the Belisarius were destroyed and the next kingdom emerged, the empire would be fine?"

It might be rude to people living in the Empire, but that's what grandpa would say, right?

Grandpa nodded to my question.

"Fighting gods must be brave beings fighting for their tribes.The point is, by serving the Emperor, the ruler of time, it is the wish of the gods and the people. "

There are many thoughts and wishes in the world.

I don't think any of them are mistakes.However, thoughts and aspirations that go too far can one day become a curse to destroy oneself.

I wish Alex and the others hadn't been trapped by that curse....

After all, I have to assume.

We know. [M]

The monster ruler's fearsome power.

Just being there overwhelms and swallows everything.

Whether it is the oldest demon king or the dragon clan of ancient species that has protected the Spirit Tree for thousands of years, it cannot be defeated.

Are you sure you can get back the "Spirit Seat" from its absolute existence?

Wender entered the demonic kingdom to help Alex at all, but how much can he achieve?

And if you can't regain the seat of the soul spirit, your heart will break.I wonder what will happen to Alex's family then.

A little anxiety struck me. [M]

"Whoa, let's get rid of the bad ideas."

Nyan

What's the matter with you? I threw another question to Grandpa, who leaned his neck.

"Yes, I also heard this from a traveler who told me about the Imperial Palace.Who's Tae-yu-sama? I heard that butterfly dancing is lovely. "

Gwen was about to take my dragon sword dance and surrendered.

You said you knew Teyu's "butterfly dance", so you realized the horror of dragon sword dance.

My dragon sword dance and Teyu's butterfly dance.

Is it a technique that incorporates the movement of dance, like dragon sword dance?Is that what a man named Teyu thinks?

My doubts surprised the village chief's grandfather and Amira again.And Grandpa taught me.

"You really know everything, even the god of martial arts."

"Shiny Martial Arts!?"

"Yes, Teyu-sama, the glossy martial arts god, sits on the Emperor's left.In one of the stories, the Emperor was told that he could only drink the sake that had been poured by Taiyu-sama at the banquet. "

I was surprised when I found out it was a big surprise. [M]

"This is a rumor, too.It seems that Teyu-sama was at the side of the Empire before it was created.Some say that the Emperor does not marry the Empress, but because there is Teyu. "

"Not only are you captivated by the Emperor's heart, but you are also an amazing woman with strength as a martial arts god, right?The martial arts god danced butterflies? "

"It's a fascinating dance, fascinating to everyone who sees it."

You knew that Gwen was a glossy martial arts god because he worked for Wender, who was a thousand-eyed martial arts god.

I wonder if I was glad to know a little about the Empire or to have shown a lot of interest.The village chief's grandfather was relaxing his cheeks in a good mood.
