Became the Emperor in the Hero Game

110 – Part 3, Episode 12

The Holy Kingdom.

A nation with a history longer than an empire, and Kiriya’s favored people.

However, their strength comes from symbolism and not from force.

… When Kiriya is not on the continent.

A brightly shining white belt.

Everyone in the holy kingdom knelt in front of him.

In the foremost are the pope and the saint.

After that, the high-ranking clergy of the cardinal level.

After that, even priests and followers.

Even those who visited the Holy Land for a short time were no exception.

Of course, there was no coercion.

He must be a person of faith enough to stop by the holy kingdom, and there is no way such a person would stand stiff in front of Kiriya.

After a while, Jackie Chan appeared first.

It used to be called the Four Ancient Dragons, but now it serves Kiriya.

Transformed not in humanoid form, but in the form of a great dragon, she stood behind her altar, gathered her wings and bowed her head, paying her respects and waiting.

Soon, the most noble and gentle goddess in the world has ascended to the altar, and she has finally returned as the rightful owner of the holy kingdom.

Those with strong sensitivity wept and those who did not recited prayers.

The source of the divine power given to them was right in front of their eyes.

“Children.”

In the Bible. In an old saying. Not recorded in history.

God’s words resound through nurturing.

A revelation and a divine name.

Seongguk didn’t even breathe and focused on Kiriya’s words.

Kiriya continued to explain to them.

The Great War that took place in the past.

Winners, losers, and bystanders.

After the great war, the inscribed law was broken, and it was announced that the losers of the past had returned.

Actually, Kiriya’s words were not very good, but the priests and followers who had her divine power understood all of her intentions.

“I was afraid of breaking the peace. This day Little dangers were left in place to prevent a new great war from coming. But now I have only regrets. So I will not stand still any longer.”

Kiriya stretched out her hand and drew a golden sword.

“Raise your sword in my name. Fight for the continent For light and justice, to bring peace to the continent once again.”

She interrupted her words for a moment, then Kiriya stretched out her left hand, which did not hold her sword, and unleashed her holy power, blessing everyone.

“I will declare a holy war.”

——————————————————————————-

“… Seongguk is quite far away.”

While conversing with others in her office, I felt Kiriya’s divine power strongly.

If it could be felt so clearly from this distance, how much divine power did she use?

“… In fact, the most similar to the Holy Kingdom’s army is the undead.”

“Hmm?”

“In fact, more than the undead. Should I call it undead with the resilience of an ogre?”

“Blasphemy… Oh, you are also a god, so it doesn’t matter. Zephyrus. I need more explanation.”

“Well, fanaticism first… Kiriya’s ardent followers know no fear. I don’t know pain, I don’t know giving up. If you stay there, you won’t die. Even a single knight can withstand the blow of a transcendental warrior by attaching divine power to it. If you don’t die instantly, you’ll recover right away. The army of the Holy Kingdom with Kiriya is as tough as the elves fighting in the Great Forest. It’s not just about not dying. Kiriya’s divine power is ignorantly emitted, but that’s quite powerful. In fact, there are many times when dealing with Transcendentalists, ignorant output is more helpful than excellent swordsmanship.”

“… There was a dispute with Kiriya in the past. My transcendents and her army fought against each other, and it reminds me of defeating my subordinates while the whole body was burning.”

Of course, Paura added that if she had stepped out on her own, even Kiriya’s army would have been reduced to ashes.

“Well, I guess. If that’s the case, I’ll have to hit the Seongguk with all my might.”

“What about the emperor’s army?”

“There are some troops that can deal with a monster king-class transcendent. But I have a lot of land to protect.”

Once I’m back, there’s no need to keep the system’s forces, but there are still many places to protect.

First of all, the eastern part where Rosé’s Triel kingdom and academy were built is dangerous even with two or three Transcendentalists, and the damage would be enormous even if one were to face them.

Freednom’s Grepa also doesn’t have enough troops to deal with the Transcendent.

A single Transcendentalist can destroy the Chamber Kingdom or Hae-on, which were built in the old land of Daman, and I have to take care of the current king’s Zer, who is not strong enough.

The Lion King’s Anon and Lone Pale’s Fail Kingdom, who are now kings, are less worried, but they don’t know what will happen if they also become a god.

So, I have to prepare for the enemy’s attack without tying up the most elite of my troops, the Imperial Family, the Imperial Knights, and the Magic Corps.

“Um… To be honest, I don’t think Nocturne will target the Emperor’s minions.”

“Why? First of all, my biggest concern is that they spread out and trample my continent.”

“Well, if only the emperor dies, even if they all gather, Nocturne won’t be threatened. Unless it’s death, the darkness doesn’t specifically want to wipe out the continent. You want to be the owner. He wouldn’t want to burn the continent he’d rule over. If that’s the case, then Kang Dae-gang and the Transcendental Army will want to fight each other.”

…… Well, that’s not wrong.

Because I have the confidence to put an end to the rebellion even if the entire empire, starting with me, rises.

“Then, can I go to Daesoorim and apply?”

“… I don’t know. Actually, that’s true, but Nocturne isn’t ignorant or a friend who lives and dies on pride like that Paura over there.”

“What?”

“It’s difficult to fight Nocturne with the emperor’s army alone, but the darkness will never be able to defeat me, Paura, Kiriya’s army, and the elder dragons. The balance will be right when we reach the Demon God, but I still think we have the upper hand.”

“Possibility of joining until death?”

“… If that happens, it’s an all-out war. Hmm… But the darkness says, Death is concocting something while stuck on the continent.”

“I can’t completely trust the words of the enemy leader.”

“Even so, Nocturne is not a lying friend.”

“Then let’s go to the Great Forest first. I have to look at the situation there and deal with it.”

“Okay! Then I will roam the continent and find out if there are any suspicious movements. There will be no one in this world who is better at scouting than me.”

“Are you superior to darkness?”

“…… “

Zephyrus disappeared as the wind without me giving an answer.

“… It seems that the barriers of the system are gradually not working properly.”

The barrier that blocks all types of space magic feels like it’s breaking through every now and then.

I know that even the barrier created by the Holy Kingdom and the Mage Tower cannot stop the gods and dragons, but it’s not a very pleasant feeling.

“Ah!”

“Why is that, Laios?”

Since Pluto, the black dragon who followed us, looked at me and asked, I answered in a bewildered way.

“… You forgot the magic tower master. I don’t know what you might be doing right now.”

———————————————————————————

“You are the last. Duke of Pale, no. Now you’re the king Explain the situation to him and ask for protection.”

“… Yes, Master. Please be safe.”

The Magic Tower Master moved the last remaining disciple to the Pale Kingdom.

Due to the barrier he himself created, he was unable to evacuate his disciples to the system.

If she was alone, she could break through her barrier, but it would be difficult to send her disciples in groups, so she chose the Pale Kingdom as the next best option.

The reason was simple.

Because Lone Pale is the strongest in the empire, excluding the emperor.

“… Cheeky to human subjects.”

The Mage Tower, which was always maintained and difficult to find even a speck of dust, was stained with her blood.

It is not the blood of the Master of the Magic Tower or her disciples.

It was the blood of the demons who came for the Mage Tower.

Her expression was expressionless as usual during the week of the Magic Tower, carrying her disciples with one hand and dealing with demons with the other.

“Insolence is what your people kind of do. How dare you try to harm me with magic in the Mage Tower.”

The compatibility was too bad.

It is a magic tower that can even seal the dragon’s magic.

Devil’s magic has great skill, but it is not of high rank compared to dragons, so it was not completely free from the seal of the mage tower, and demons with poor physical abilities or powers could not harm the mage lord.

If the opponents were all demons, the owner of the mage tower would have dealt with her alone without having to evacuate her disciples.

However, the reality was not like that, and the Mage Tower owner evacuated her disciples.

“How long are you going to just watch?”

“Oh, sorry. It’s such a fun sight. Tsk, how can a human mage who is a survivor of a great war in name and color fail?”

The man who stepped on the corpses of the demons, cut off the head of the demon that was still alive until the end, and made a proposal to the owner of the mage tower.

“Viola. The greatest magician I have come with a proposal from my lord, Death.”
