Became the Emperor in the Hero Game

68 – Part 2 Episode 24

There is a tradition among the masters of the continent.

There is a title called the King of Swords, and that title is inherited by those who defeat the King of Swords.

It is said that he used to be the sword emperor, but since the last sword emperor died in a joint attack by 11 masters and 19 mages of the empire, he is called the sword king.

The Lion King, Kraus Anon hadn’t liked that before.

Is the name emperor heavy and the king light?

So, before ascending to the throne, he found and killed the Sword King during the days when he was called the Swordsman.

An era represented by the Sword King, Storm Sword, and Hunter.

Krause of the sword. Estia of the Phantom Sword. It also announced that it had been replaced with Ron’s era of the space sword.

After that, Stormblade was probably killed by Lone Pale, and the hunter doesn’t know.

Anyway, for quite some time after that, the King of Swords was the Lion King.

A few years ago, until the Lion King was defeated by Shien.

——————————————————————————

One day, the Lion King received a report that a hero had entered Anon.

Since the anti-demon king alliance was formed and the alliance was giving strength to the hero, the Lion King had no particular intention of interfering with the hero.

Actually, it would have been more accurate to say that he had no interest in the hero.

At the time, the Lion King regarded the hero as a whim of the emperor.

Even when he supported the warriors in the anti-demon king alliance and joined the successors of each faction, he thought it was just a matter of making heroes to boost morale.

In the end, he thought it was the strongest people on the continent, including himself, who would defeat the demon lord, not those kids.

At the time, the Lion King stayed longer in the training room rather than the office, because he thought his role as king was to become stronger and kill the demon king.

Living confined to his office for a long time, he thought he needed to loosen up, leaving all state affairs to his successor and living in a training room.

In the meantime. The Lion King received a report.

“What is it?”

“… The crown prince commissioned the hero to assassinate Duke Salon.”

A lot has happened since then, but to keep it short, Duke Salon was a demon worshiper and intended to sacrifice his people in a mass ceremony.

The warrior who noticed this joined forces with the crown prince to stop it.

The crown prince later said that it would be too late if he had reported to himself and moved after receiving approval.

The Lion King was satisfied with this.

If you’re the heir to the Lion King, you should do that.

However, he was not a hero.

I wouldn’t know if the crown prince had reaped it at all, but the hero called himself an imperial citizen.

Then, the situation in which the duke of Anon was killed by a foreigner who had an inside story.

The Lion King summoned the hero and had a few conversations.

From noble mtl dot com

“If we didn’t do that, the inevitable would have died.”

“That is none of your business.”

“Only I could do it.”

Anyway, it is true that the people were saved thanks to the hero, so the Lion King had no intention of killing the hero.

I just got curious.

How far can this young man go?

Is he really trying to kill the demon lord?

The answer to that question was yes, and the Lion King said.

“Prove it with your sword.”

A favorite junior who appeared after a while, maybe a friend of his son.

I intended to give you a proper lesson.

I sure did.

Actually, my memory of that time is not accurate.

At some point, he lost his temper and fought, and the same goes for the hero.

According to the reports of those who watched the fight, he fell first and then the warrior.

On that day, the sword king of the continent changed.

And the Lion King has also changed.

——————————————————————————

Space split along the Lion King’s sword.

It is different from Lone Fail, which cuts enemies beyond space.

A sword attack that simply crushes the space.

In one sword strike, dozens of monsters were crushed.

The old Continental Conference Hall that has become a land of demons.

The Demon Beasts, who do not even have a record of staying in this land, were strong enough to recall those of the Demons, but they could not even resist and were crushed.

Among them, there were even larger monsters that seemed to be the leader of the group, but they could not withstand the Lion King’s single sword and died with their heads crushed.

“To think that a place like this was chosen. After all, the emperor is insane.”

What kind of madman in the world would choose the Land of Witch Beasts as a meeting place?

“… Abdication of the king. I got a call from Ger. I want to join.”

“Hyeonwang? Didn’t you bring the knights with you?”

“They must have been accompanied, but the damage seems to be great.”

“Well, it’s not going to work. Don’t join Should we go back?”

“If you send us our coordinates, they will come and find you. It still has that much power left.”

The Lion King nodded his head in agreement, and soon Chancellor was in touch.

Soon the wise king of Zer and his party cooperated, but the exhaustion of the entire party was evident.

“You are here.”

“… Come I don’t know what the emperor is thinking. To think of a place like this as a place.”

The Demon Beasts of this land were so strong that Anon’s knights could not have easily dealt with it if the Lion King had not stepped forward, so it was not unreasonable that the Zere knights were so injured and exhausted.

Zer was a country close to a big hexagon, but that’s why the knights didn’t stand out particularly.

“Well, you need to understand a madman.”

Even if he had risen to the rank of the Great Mage, he would risk the empire on himself and apply for one-on-one.

The Emperor is a madman.

The Lion King thought so.

“… That is a difficult word to ignore.”

As the two kings met, a man in black armor walked out of the center of the old Continental Conference Hall.

Since it seemed to appear out of thin air, the Hyeonwang seemed surprised, and the Lion King frowned and said.

“I thought how long you were hiding, did you wait until Jim and the Hyeonwang met?”

“Oh, did you get caught? He is truly the lion king. If someone else had said such an arrogant thing, they would have cut their lips, but since you are a guest invited by His Majesty today, I’m sorry… “

Before the man in the black armor, Frio, vice-captain of the Imperial Knights, could finish his words, the Lion King swung his sword.

Prio also drew his sword and tried to respond, but the white shield blocked the gap first.

The white aura took the form of a huge shield, and it was shattered by the Lion King’s sword attack, but the sword attack that broke the shield did not go any further.

“Prio. I’m not your opponent, so take care of yourself. And what is your habit of talking to His Majesty’s grandson?”

“Sir Peltz… “

“… The lion king, and the wise king. It is an honor to meet you.”

“You are the leader of the Imperial Knights, with a lot of rumors.”

The Hyeonwang was greeted, and the Lion King still glared at the two without hiding his displeasure.

“Our article made a mistake. However, I heard that the Lion King’s words were too much, so please dispel his anger.”

“Tsk.”

“Your Majesty is waiting for you.”

“Where is the Emperor?”

“Actually, I wanted to meet you two at the old conference hall, but unfortunately the building itself has long since disappeared, so you are not far from here.”

“Is the Pope with you?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Guide me.”

At the order of the Lion King, Frio tried to open his mouth again, but he couldn’t speak because Peltz was glaring at him.

Following the guidance of the two knights, the two kings and their party proceeded, and soon they could see many people gathered.

“Unexpected. I thought you would put up a splendid building, even temporarily.”

“Your Majesty said that the story won’t be long, so there’s no need for that:”

The Lion King agreed, and the Hyeonwang also did not object.

The Lion King became curious as to whether the proposal was made to himself or to the Hyeonwang, but in the end he thought it had nothing to do with it, so he didn’t ask.

Because if you defeat the emperor and become the master of the empire, then everything will be irrelevant, and it is no different even if you are defeated:

“Ah. You are here.”

Suddenly, the two kings arrived in front of the emperor.

The two knights of the empire bowed to the emperor, and the pope and several figures were seen standing behind the emperor.

There were faces he knew and faces he didn’t know, but before the Emperor looked back and said something, the Lion King spoke first.

“Emperor. The owner of the empire wouldn’t have sent a false letter.”

“… Of course. Jim always speaks the truth.”

At this, the Lion King drew his sword and aimed at the emperor.

—————————————————————————————————————-

The king of Zer and a man called the Hyeonwang quickly rolled her head and grasped her situation.

‘Those knights are crazy enough to point their swords at the Lion King at one word. But even though the lion king aimed his sword at the emperor, did he stay still? If so, that means it was agreed upon in advance.’

The emperor’s expression also says so.

Even though a sword was pointed in front of his eyes, instead of getting angry, look at him smiling and taking out the staff and other artifacts.

“We step back.”

“Your Majesty… ?”

“Look at those two. Doesn’t it look like it’s going to stick together no matter who sees it? Jim is caught between me and I don’t have the confidence to be safe.”

“… I will see you.”

While Zer’s party retreated, Anon’s knights, the Empire’s knights, and those from the Holy Land also stepped back, providing a wide space.

Then the king and the emperor clashed.
