Chapter 970 – #99. Three Thousand Concubines and Emperor Gaiden (28)
Soldiers freed from addiction.
And as a bonus, there was a phenomenon that even the normal soldiers nearby were slightly cured of chronic diseases.
It’s obvious, but it’s an item I bought at the store.
For reference, treating people is very expensive.
What if I take this out of my pocket?
‘My belly button is bigger than my stomach.’
So I called Pony and asked what to do in such and such a situation.
That guy, of course, said why are you asking me this, my part-time job? So do I really do what I want? I hit the iron wall once again with the iron wall.
Then, as if I was really going to play a game, I quickly realized it and decided to support the item.
“Hehe, that’s it.”
Why did you send me to this world?
Aren’t you trying to save this world?
I’m not sure how big the aftermath of my hard work on my back here will be.
But since it has value, I think the other side also invested and sent me here.
And this wasn’t a bad thing from their point of view either.
Wouldn’t the decay of the temple be a nuisance?
‘Shouldn’t you take this opportunity to manage your discipline? Isn’t that a good opportunity? You don’t want to save this world.’
At those words, Pony couldn’t resist any longer.
To be honest, I wanted to tear off the coin as well as receive support, but I didn’t think it would make me do more work because it would cling to me.
I didn’t want to give this guy an excuse.
Isn’t he the guy who is still impatient to use coins as bait to get people to work?
In any case, the item he ripped off from Pony worked better than expected.
‘I thought the effect wouldn’t be great because I had to restore several people, but this wasn’t enough and overflowed.’
It is said that it did not end with solving the addiction, but also healed the wounds and chronic diseases of other soldiers.
The morale of the soldiers seemed to skyrocket as it was a benefit received by all those present.
Now that the soldiers had recovered, it was time to plan what to do next.
And the next plan didn’t have to think long.
Capital of the Geos Empire.
Marching there was all I was planning.
Other than that, there were no other plans to intervene.
“After maintenance, we will march to the capital of the Geos Empire. From now on, we will move at full speed, aiming at one goal.”
Until now, he had attacked the surrounding castles one by one and headed towards the capital.
I didn’t have any intention of speed battle, so I was marching slowly, but from now on, I was thinking of changing my plan a little differently.
‘I tried to build a reputation by slowly building up my winnings, but now I don’t have to.’
Since he had obtained a plausible justification, from now on, he was thinking of pushing all the way to the capital of the Geos Empire.
Just in time, a large force of reinforcements was due to arrive in a few days.
He was planning to join the reinforcements and push into the Geos Imperial Palace.
⁘ ⁘ ⁘
We continued to advance and advance without stopping.
When the cause of having been chosen by God arose, the soldiers and nobles dared to obey my orders.
“It seems that other kingdoms are watching our empire.”
The spies were constantly delivering quality information, so it was easy to see what situation the Geos Empire was in, and it proved that our victory was not something we could simply be lucky with.
The Geos Empire was now on all sides.
“The allies are saving themselves and fighting with the temple…”
“I don’t understand why they are fighting with the temple. Isn’t the temple supposed to help the Geos Empire unconditionally?”
The prince was watching me hard at work without falling from my side.
He couldn’t help with the work himself, but he was learning a lot just by watching.
I gave the crown prince permission to ask questions at any time.
When there were no questions, I would ask the Crown Prince a question in reverse to make sure I had accurately grasped the current situation.
‘It’s a class, so don’t lose sight of it, Prince.’
If you ask a question, he will teach you, but if you end the meeting without asking a question, there will be a situation where you will be asked the opposite question, so the prince gradually realized which was the better choice for him.
And now, if I have a question, I have developed a habit of asking without hesitation without paying attention.
It seemed like I had definitely learned this time that there is no shame in asking questions about things you don’t know.
“Rationally, you know that’s right, but you can’t give up your greed. From the temple’s point of view, which was helping the war by extorting a huge amount of money and sending priests, you want to continue to benefit from it, so you ignore the changed situation and ignore it.”
“If that’s the case, it’s only going to be a loss for them. The Geos Empire isn’t stupid, and there’s no way they’ll pay priests to bring them up in a situation like this.”
Since the temple was on the verge of defeating the empire, he had to fight us unconditionally.
So he’d much rather benefit from taking down our empire with a hunchback when he’s fighting the Geos Empire.
Nevertheless, he could not give up his greed for the riches he had stolen from the Geos Empire, so he was irrational.
Since it is unavoidable that a priest is needed for war, it must have been a complacent thought that if he was a little forced, he would be able to get over it after doing a moderate trick.
“The problem is that the Emperor of the Geos Empire is loaded with medicine.”
Diplomatic stress on priests and allies.
Despite being allied with them, the war situation was sluggish without being able to drive out the empire.
Even the massive defeat that I’ve done in recent years.
“How would you feel if the temple came out like this under such circumstances?”
“I think I’ll be very angry.”
“Yeah, and you’re going to want to fuck the temple somehow.”
I was robbed of money and abused.
Humans would never be able to laugh and shout haha with a temple.
Even though I know that’s not right.
“If we fight each other like this, the war might end earlier than we thought.”
In fact, for a wise emperor, even if he could not pay as much as he used to, it would be good for diplomatic relations to take care of human rights expenses in moderation.
‘I don’t mean to say that I killed all the priests.’
The Empire cast ‘Come on!’ While crossing the river of no return from the temple.
Geos was poisoned by being eaten.
A temple like a snake that wants to take advantage of others because it needs revenge but doesn’t want to suffer losses.
Is there any flesh left between the three-way battle? Even the allies who are snooping.
In order to sort out this mess, it was necessary to hit and enter quickly.
‘It’s okay, but it’s different from the plan and I used too much force.’
This war was the stage on which I would exit this world.
However, because I showed such overwhelming power, I felt that the aftermath of my death would be greater than I thought.
The soldiers who witnessed the miracle of the day are praying to me, not to God.
You have that much faith in me, but what if I lose my life here in vain?
‘Isn’t it time for the crown prince to play an active part?’
If he had been taught this much, it would be safe to say that he knew how to pave his way.
“Taeja.”
“Yes, Obama.”
“Would you like to try it from now on?”
“Yes?”
“You’ve been watching what Abi does all this time. She’s just worth watching. She didn’t intend to go back to the palace, did she?”
“Of course not! Are you really giving me a chance?”
“I had a lot of trouble learning. Wasn’t it easy to hold back my youthful energy?”
“No. Being by Obama’s side made me realize how much I was lacking. So I was happy to spend the learning time.”
Even if I say that I had a good time learning, my body must have been itchy when I saw that my expression brightened when I was told to start working in earnest.
‘It’s because the crown prince has been able to do all this time by knocking around near where I am.’
Even if I took him to the battlefield, he would immediately call the child.
Because it is dangerous.
Thanks to this, the crown prince was unable to leave a clear mark in this war.
However, from now on, achievements must be accumulated for stable succession.
If the support for me is too high, there is a high probability that the next successor, the Crown Prince, will feel burdened.
‘I have no choice but to compare myself.’
In order to prevent such a thing from happening, he was thinking of making the crown prince actively step forward from now on.
Isn’t it because the child’s skills were lacking so far?
It just needed time to learn and adapt by seeing the war with both eyes.
However, people have no choice but to know the hidden intentions, and it was necessary to show that the crown prince was not incompetent before such misunderstandings deepened.
“Jim intends to take a step back and watch.”
“Are you sure you’re okay with that?”
The prince seemed bewildered at suddenly having so much authority.
“Isn’t this the time to worry about Jim? You’d better be determined, the Crown Prince. Don’t you think that your father is foolish enough to make an incompetent person his successor?”
“!!”
I was saying that I would evaluate you from now on.
The prince swallowed his saliva with a stiff expression.
You must have been hoping for an opportunity like this to come, but when it does, all kinds of thoughts will come to mind.
The pressure is not very high, but if you suffer from this level of pressure, it means that the child’s talent is not the only one.
‘Of course, there’s no way my kid isn’t talented enough to do that. Whose son is he?’
The empress also had an exceptionally brilliant personality, and she was never a bad-headed person.
I was worried about what would happen if I raised my child as a careless person, but my genes were not on the messy side, so the child grew up really well.
‘I can’t help but feel the arrogance unique to the royal family.’
To be honest, children born to concubines do not have less talent than the crown prince.
However, there was no reason to keep an eye on other children besides the crown prince who had legitimacy and had all the abilities.
So I gave all my favor to the crown prince, and I have consistently proved that there is no other room for succession.
The kids might feel sad, but rather, I thought it was necessary to prevent bloodshed later.
‘You don’t know what kind of bloodshed will blow after I die.’
I thought that showing a clearly discriminatory attitude would protect the lives of other children.
“We will definitely live up to Obama’s expectations!”
The prince clenched his fists and said with fire burning in his eyes.
I smiled at her and nodded her head.
