Chapter 167 – The Beginning of the 7-War (9)
Everyone was silent at the emperor’s words, and the emperor laughed happily as if he had created this situation.
Priests and paladins in particular seemed surprised by the emperor’s remarks about the warrior, but no one tried to refute the emperor’s words.
Seeing that, the emperor spoke even bolder before the nobles and priests.
He especially openly asked the saintess for her opinion.
And since the emperor asked the saintess of hers, the saintess had to answer unconditionally, regardless of her current mood.
“So… What do you think, saintess? I think that Shine Artel has enough qualifications and merit as a hero.”
“Your Majesty. The title of a hero is not personal! Besides, if it’s the first holy sword, isn’t it something the hero deserves to be bestowed with!”
The saintess boldly and confidently told her opinion to her emperor, and her emperor responded skillfully to her, starting with ‘Shine Artel! A quarrel began under the theme of ‘Am I really qualified to be a warrior?’
Actually, I didn’t have the slightest interest in the status of a warrior.
Hehe! Finally found a new contractor! I don’t know how long it’s been since the first hero died, but I found the 2nd generation with this… ! Whoa. Let me introduce myself again! My name is Asher. It is the first holy sword used by the legendary warrior you are familiar with, and it is the sword that guides heroes!]
‘… This is against schedule.”
I was thinking about the sacred and beautiful beauty that came to my head like in darkness.
Holy Sword Aser. It’s definitely strong, but it doesn’t suit me very much.
It was a legendary weapon that was called the sword of God in the original work.
However, he did not know that the holy sword of Aserra had an ego.
Besides, since he called himself the sword that guides heroes, if I tried to do something evil in the eyes of others, he might try to stop me…
That’s why I had no choice but to think about how to handle this sword, but Aser smiled and said as if he had read my head.
[Whoops. You are worrying unnecessarily. You don’t have to worry about that.]
‘… Yes?’
[No surprise. From the moment you and I were bound by a contract, your memories can be read to some extent. Of course you have to hold me!]
At those words, I smiled and said, seriously intending to break this sword.
“…So what did you mean? Think carefully before you tell me.”
[Hmm… It’s a very simple thing. Originally, being a hero is when you catch 100,000 killers who killed 100 people. And the hero only needs to save the world after all. Other than that, coveting a single woman is a man… No, it’s natural for a hero!]
At that, I was relieved.
And he sighed at the same time.
‘For now, it’s fortunate that my actions are viewed positively, but… It’s too much to say once.’
I have a hunch that the newly created lump of luggage will be more talkative and annoying than Darkness or higher.
At the same time as I had expected, the emperor and the saintess’ quarrel continued.
“It’s foolish. The first holy sword is not the holy sword used by a hero! It is a sword that finds a being with the qualifications of a hero himself and takes it as its master! And Artel was recognized as the owner of that sword just now!”
“Haona. The author was not summoned as a hero, and he does not have the power of light, which is the strength of a hero!”
“Foolish! Even the first and ancestor, the first hero, had the power of light. But he was never summoned! Throw away the idea that a hero is unconditionally summoned from the other world!”
“Ugh! That, that’s…!”
Is it still the emperor? He quickly subdued her saintess with an argument.
“Well… I’m not trying to give you the title of a hero right now. But just know that Artel has enough qualifications to be a hero!”
“…Yes, Your Majesty.”
The emperor’s words now are a subtle threat.
If I am bestowed with the title of a hero, the awareness of the summoned hero will drastically decrease, and the people and nobles will trust me more than the hero summoned from the other world.
[Yeah. I did see the memory that the imperial power was separated because of religion. It is unusual to see the descendents of the first generation, who reigned with all the positions of emperor and pope, keeping religion in check.]
Literally, the emperor was using me to keep the religious world in check and threaten me.
After all, it seems that the emperor’s position is not maintained by bloodline.
While I was watching the emperor with that thought in mind, the emperor who had won the verbal fight saw me and shouted.
“Kuhmm…! Anyway, there were problems with this and that! It’s time for Artel to take one of my daughters as his wife!”
“… His Majesty’s tension is quite high today.”
[When I looked at my memories, both of my daughters were quite talented and ran amok in various fields… I think you will be happy as well. First of all, one load is definitely reduced. As a bonus, you get a powerful ally.]
It was plausible.
Anyway, at the emperor’s words, two princesses entered.
Both were very well-dressed, exposing their beautiful bodies and faces.
The first to come forward was Bubbletio Asuna.
She had her black hair in a ponytail hanging down to her waist and was wearing her silver dress and tied her hair with a silver ribbon.
In addition, her voluptuous breasts and narrow waist, which were exposed even over her dress, further strengthened her charm, and her well-trained muscles planted the perception that she was a healthy beauty.
It’s just right, not too much and not too weak! It was a muscle in the midline.
“I came in quite late after receiving Your Majesty’s order, but… You seem to have done a great job. Your Majesty.”
It seems that he himself never thought that the emperor himself would do something like this to catch me.
[No wonder they want to catch you! A strong person like you is never common!]
The Holy Sword guy shouted something, but she ignored it for now.
Now I have to focus on working with them.
“… I’m sorry it turned out like this. We tried to fight fair and square, but in the end it’s up to you to decide.”
“No. I’m getting one of the two beauties, so I have to accept this much.”
Haha… You’re saying thank you!”
Asuna smiled wryly at me, and I corrected her with a smile.
And at the same time, Bubbleratio Asuka also came in.
“… I have been called upon. Your Majesty.”
For some reason, there was a beautiful woman wearing a pure white dress and black hair tied in twin tails, not her usual style.
She made a face that looked a little melancholy, but it did not disfigure her appearance in the slightest.
She says that they are both emperors by the way, but she seems to be too hard on the one who is her own father.
If you think it’s because it’s an official position here, it’s clear that the two of them are the type to pursue their own path no matter what others say, so they’re probably like that on a regular basis.
Anyway, when both princesses entered, the emperor pointed at me and asked seriously.
“I ask in the name of the emperor. Shine Artel. Which of my two daughters will you marry!”
At the emperor’s cry, I opened my mouth as I had with Asuka today.
“I will marry the first princess!”
“… Good! Then, my daughter. What do you think?”
“I don’t know if I’ll change anything if I refuse this, but… If it’s this boy, I’ll admit it!”
1 The princess accepted the offer with a slightly happy expression, and a grand party was held that day.
The princess’s engagement celebration party and the general’s celebration party.
—————————-
“Ummm! General… The general. Then what position should I be in!”
In a huge forest, a girl climbed one of the trees and watched the ecliptic through a telescope.
As expected, this girl’s name is a runaway woman who hurriedly runs away after escaping the imperial army safely with Lilith Belly.
“Hmm… It’s fortunate that my identity wasn’t revealed, but when I go to the territory, the demons are annoying… Yes! Now that it’s like this, let’s jump to the kingdom!”
It was a decision made very suddenly, but she got the telescope in her nopak spirit and prepared to leave immediately.
“Okay. Then, where should we go! There are three kingdoms, but I’m worried because I haven’t done the detailed settings!”
It sounds so carefree, but in reality, as the original author, she did not particularly deepen the setting of the kingdom.
Some kingdoms have strong knights and some kingdoms have developed magic, befitting a normal medieval civilization and fantasy.
It’s all about level setting.
That’s why she was worried about her own.
The kingdom also has its own key point setting, so you can take it, but the kingdom itself was not planned to some extent like Artel, but it was just a crazy decision.
And she decided this time too lightly and easily.
“Okay! If you’re confused about where to go. I’ll stop by all three kingdoms! Yay!”
If anyone hears this, they will kick their tongues, calling it reckless and nonsense, but unfortunately there are no people in this place, and even more unfortunately, this girl has her abilities and strength to fulfill her words.
“Then see you later. Until then, bye! I’m coming!”
The girl finally sees her telescope as his close friend and beloved. She then looked at her boy, who wished to tutor her, and then, with her own invention in her own hands, quickly ran out of the woods and disappeared.
