Became the Emperor in the Hero Game

84 – Part 2 Episode 40

“Hmm.”

I fell into trouble while ‘looking at’ Anon.

Now that Anon is also in my domain, he gave it a try, and this is it.

“Kill that thing, save it.”

That magic swordsman.

My name is… I don’t remember.

Still, he was a character I used to use in the game.

He has a broken side somewhere, and he is an ambiguous person who is neither evil nor good.

He maintains his sanity even while holding a demonic sword that turns the user into a bloodthirsty madman, and fights while controlling that power.

It was impossible to control even the daughter of the demon king completely, so the fact that she came to her senses as soon as her black armor was shattered was worth giving her extra points.

“I’m worried about what the Lion King will think.”

One thing that bothers me is that he played a game right in front of Anon’s palace.

Looking at it, it seems that the Lion King’s knights are quite dead, and the capital city is destroyed.

“Um… I want that guy, but I need to consider the face of the Lion King… “

Well, I don’t think Shiendo has any intention of killing him right away anyway, so I’ll put him in a prison or something and think about it slowly.

While continuing my worries, Dia came and posted a report.

“Your Majesty, this is a report from Her Highness the Princess. The slayers within Anon were also annihilated, and the shaman who seemed to be the leader was captured alive, so he asked me to decide what to do.”

“Oh… ? I thought I missed the shaman, did you catch it?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. Sir Giel found and subdued the shaman who was trying to escape.”

“Ah, Giel can do that. Even the shaman must have used up quite a bit of power. Is there a sealing orb on Rael’s side that can neutralize the shaman?”

“Yes, some of the guards have sealed orbs, so they say they have been neutralized.”

“Okay. For now, the shaman’s disposition will be withheld. Bring them back and tell them.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“Let’s go. Oh, it’s already over.”

“Yes… ?”

“Oh, never mind.”

“Yes… “

—————————————————————————-

“Ah, that doesn’t work either.”

The magic swordsman knelt down with his arms and legs tied and away from the sword.

“If it wasn’t for the saintess, I think I would have been able to fight or something like that, hero. How about we solve this and play fair again?”

“Shut up.”

“Ah, Senior Lion King. This was a lot of mistakes. In fact, Anon had no grudge… “

The magic swordsman of Shien kicking stopped talking.

Since the kick was quite strong, the magic swordsman coughed up blood, and Shien said coldly.

“How many people died because of you, how long are you going to keep that attitude?”

“Cool… Ah, did any of the dead know the hero? If so, apologize.”

“What… ?”

“Oh, or is it because of your friendship with the Lion King senior? If so what I can’t help it. Ah, Senior Lion King. I’m a bit sorry to say this, but could you cut me off painlessly?”

When the magician looked at the Lion King and said, the Lion King asked with a collapsed expression.

“… Did you give up?”

“Give up… Well, it’s similar, but a little different. If I had a grudge against Lion King or the Hero, I would have fought until the end, but that’s not the case, well. The reason why I shouldn’t die has disappeared a while ago, so there’s no need to make a fuss.”

“Why not die… Was that the Demon King?”

“… Yes. Actually, I’m just saying it now, but I’m quite grateful to the saintess, the hero, and the other hero’s colleagues. I didn’t even get to see the demon lord, but I fought one of those corps commanders, and he almost died. I knew then Ah, I can’t catch the demon king.”

“Is it because of revenge that you tried to kill the Demon King?”

The magic swordsman answered with silence instead, and the Lion King ordered.

“… For now, put that guy in jail. Chancellor. You lead the less injured Royal Knights and chase the remnants of the massacre.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

“There is no need for that, Your Highness the Lion King.”

“Um… ?”

At that time, a group led by a woman appeared from the other side of the capital.

Black long hair, dimly felt Kiriya’s divine power, and even Giel, the leader of the Hwangyeong Knights who escorts him.

I’ve never met her in person, but it wasn’t hard to figure out who she was.

“Meet Her Highness the Princess.”

“Nice to meet you, Your Highness the Lion King.”

Following, everyone, including Shien and the saintess, bowed, and the princess, who received it lightly, said.

“There are no more Slaughterers in Anon, Your Highness the Lion King.”

“Are you sure? It is an important matter to me.”

“I am sure. I already got confirmation. Yes? A saint?”

“Yes… ? Wait a minute… “

After hearing what the princess said, the saintess closed her eyes and prayed.

“Your Highness is right, Her Highness the Lion King. There are no more people who use the power of slaughter against Anon.”

“… Did Kiriya confirm it? Then you have to believe I thank Her Highness the Princess and the Empire for their hard work.”

“No. Now that the Empire and Anon are not very different, it was a natural thing to do. My condolences to Anon for the tragedy he suffered.”

The Lion King replied with a small nod of her head, and the princess’ gaze soon turned to the magic swordsman.

“The interest is… ?”

From noble mtl dot com

“Your Highness, this person is a magic swordsman, presumed to be a member of the Slaughter Cult that invaded Anon.”

“Ah, it is an honor to meet the princess of the empire. It is called Zighat.”

“… ?”

“That is… “

When the princess was puzzled by her appearance, which looked too fine to be a massacre, Shien explained the situation.

“Um… It’s the devil’s mind manipulation… “

How do I do this?

Should that be seen as a victim or an aggressor?

Should I leave it to the Lion King?

While the princess was contemplating, a communication tool belonging to one of the inspectors rang.

“… Her Highness the Princess. This is a call from Sir Viol.”

“When it rains? Your Highness the Lion King. I have received a call from the vice-captain of the Imperial Knights, who has now dealt with the massacre cultists in the northern part of your country.”

“Then you should take it.”

The princess received the communication tool, and through it she could see the bloodied viol.

“When it rains… !”

“Viol, vice-captain of the Hwangyoung Knights, welcomes Her Highness the Princess.”

“That injury… ? To the Slaughter Cultists… ?”

“hahahaha, I’m not that old yet. It’s a witch beast, Her Highness the Princess.”

Shortly thereafter, one of Anon’s Royal Knights came to the Lion King with a communication tool.

The Lion King was contacted after asking for understanding from those around him, and accepted a report similar to that of the princess.

“Your Highness the King, cooperated with the Master of the Empire to wipe out the pseudos who dared invade Anon’s land. However, a huge monster suddenly appeared from nowhere… “

“… Witch King.”

“Yes… ?”

“The vice-captain of the Imperial Knights is said to be there. Was the subjugation successful?”

“Yes, Your Highness. Fifty-six knights and twenty-two experts sacrificed themselves to successfully subdue the demons.”

“The damage is great.”

“Sorry, Your Highness.”

“It is not your fault. Contact me again.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The Lion King cut off communication and looked at the princess.

The princess’ communication tool had long since lost its luster, but the princess was still muttering while looking into the air as if talking to someone.

“Yes… I am… ? Yes, I understand, Your Majesty. Yes.”

‘Your Majesty… ?’

Could it be that you are talking to the emperor?

At the Lion King’s ears, he heard a voice he was quite familiar with.

‘I gave the details to Rael, so follow her instructions.’

Ha, God, it’s done.

“Well, whether it’s the imperial order or the oracle, it has come down, so we have to follow it.”

Looking around, I saw that Shien was also looking around in confusion.

“… ?”

“Did you hear that too?”

“Yes, senior. Just that… ?”

“What, isn’t that a familiar voice?”

“That’s right, but… “

When the lion king looked around, the magician was looking at the situation while rolling her eyes to see what was going on.

“Pay attention.”

It was the princess, Rael, who settled the somewhat chaotic atmosphere.

She said with a light purple aura, as if Kiriya and the Emperor’s divine power were mixed.

“From now on, I will speak on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor and the great Kiriya. This is not Rael Arhan’s personal will, but an oracle and imperial decree, so please do not question it and just follow it.”

Representing the emperor is okay, but the saintess is here, so she’s representing Kiriya?

Such a question passed the Lion King, but the saintess agreed without saying anything, lowering her head.

“Once defeated in a great war, the beasts who fell asleep on their own have begun to wake up. Even the weakest demon beasts to be awakened are comparable to the Master, and those monsters have reached transcendence, so the whole continent must unite to stand against it.”

“The pleural effusion… “

“His Majesty’s forces have already moved towards the beasts. Also, roles have been assigned to those present here, Sir Shien.”

“Yes, Her Highness.”

“Sir Shien, please return to the system immediately with the Holy Maiden, the Elf Princess, the Beast Man and the Pale family heir. As soon as the location of the beast Lord Shien must deal with is specified, His Majesty will move Lord Shien.”

“I accept the emperor.”

“Your Highness, the Lion King, heal your injuries and recover as quickly as possible. A mage who will help move the Highness will be heading here soon.”

“I will honor the emperor.”

“The war against mankind’s oldest enemy has begun, fight and win. Prove that united humanity is not inferior even to the masters of the past.”

The princess’ energy that had been said up to that point was strongly colored purple, and she spoke her last words with a stronger voice than before.

“For the Empire.”
