## Chapter 855 – 855. A Tyrant For You
“Your Majesty. The supply preparations are all complete.”
There was a man who carefully reported to me. A man with black-green hair and glasses. He was one of the original sub-male leads, and he bowed his head to me.
Bermer Skellogg. The Empire’s greatest merchant. He became a Marquis for his contributions this time.
He was a spy I had planted in the rebel army. And to be honest, I didn’t trust Bermer. He was described as a sly guy in the original work, so I thought he would stab me in the back at a crucial moment. That’s why I put Linda, whom I could control, into the rebel army.
But Bermer never betrayed me. In a way, not betraying me was a betrayal of my expectations.
“Bermer. Why didn’t you betray me?”
“Were you curious about that?”
“Sometimes you annoy me. If I were in a slightly worse mood, I would have killed you.”
“I am aware. That’s why I only sneak up like this when Your Majesty is in a good mood.”
Bermer grins slyly. I debated whether to kill him or not, but in the end, I decided to let him live. This guy is capable. Even the Chancellor praises him. And he periodically offers me beautiful women. He’s also in charge of capturing the beauties who fled without submitting to the right of the first night.
“Just answer me.”
“It was the result of a simple calculation. His Majesty the Emperor’s martial prowess is enough to conquer a country alone. Morgana whispered that if three kingdoms united, they could kill Your Majesty, but I didn’t believe it. Most of Morgana’s words were just nice-sounding lies. Would you believe that more than half of the rebels joined the rebellion because they were captivated by her beauty? A gathering of incompetents will only ever be incompetent.”
“Aren’t the Grand Duke and the Admiral capable?”
“Yes. They are capable. Especially Grand Duke Leist, he surprised even me. He seemed like a superhuman, not a human. But they had no choice. Your Majesty was always planning to kill them, weren’t you?”
I didn’t deny his words. That was indeed what I was thinking.
“Your Majesty. I dare to offer some advice.”
“I permit it.”
“Your Majesty! Be wary of Morgana! I have never seen such a wicked woman! That woman is a witch who is more than capable of bringing down a nation, so please, be wary of her.”
“It’s true that Morgana is no ordinary woman. But right now, she’s just my sex toy. Do you think I can’t handle one woman?”
“I have spoken out of turn. Please forgive me.”
“It was permitted. Go back and do what you have to do.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
Bermer retreated.
***
Over 3 million Imperial soldiers marched south.
The number of 3 million is overwhelming, but if you look closely at the Imperial army, it’s not that impressive. More than half are slaves, and all sorts of races are mixed in. In reality, there are less than 500,000 professionally trained soldiers.
The march stopped at the southern end. A sheer cliff and the huge waves crashing against the cliff like the palm of a giant hand blocked their path.
I focused my eyes and stared into the distance.
An island could be seen almost 100km away. It was Mailord, the Elven kingdom that was being separated from the continent by the power of God.
“Morgana. Where is the Witch Island?”
“It’s coming, so just wait a little. The Witch Island will reveal itself soon.”
Morgana said, wearing a dress that didn’t hide the curves of her black body at all. My gaze went to her collarbone, chest, and delicate shoulders. When I snapped my fingers, Morgana giggled and approached, hugging my right arm.
She blatantly rubbed her ample breasts against my forearm. My right hand touched her crotch.
“I heard rumors that you’ve got Ernel wrapped around your finger.”
“Ah… that little kid. I just teased him a little. Did he ask you to do something? To scold me?”
“No. I just came to tell you to keep it moderate. Don’t forget your place.”
“I know my place very well. That’s why I’m being so… hmmm… affectionate with you. Ah…”
Her pussy was so wet that I could tell even through her dress.
I took her into the carriage and had sex.
After spending some time like that, the surroundings began to stir, and I came out of the carriage. A pitch-black shadow was cast on the ground. I looked up at the sky. A huge island was floating in the sky.
“That’s the Witch Island. An island that moves the sky and the sea. Isn’t it mysterious?”
Morgana hugged my shoulders from behind. Her sweat-soaked skin glistened, her flushed face was seductive, and her golden eyes were languid.
“It’s quite a sight. Morgana. Quickly turn that into a bridge.”
“Okay. It’ll be quite a spectacle, so watch.”
Morgana floated into the air and flew towards the sky. Her lower body was trembling, and white liquid dripped from below her.
I waited with my arms crossed.
Thump. Thump, thump.
A roar echoed from the Witch Island. The soldiers’ murmuring, filled with fear, grew louder. The huge island split apart, and its fragments flew through the air, beginning to change shape. It was the shape of a giant leg. As Morgana had boasted, the Witch Island became a bridge.
The giant leg slowly descended and connected to the island. What was strange was that the bridge was floating on the sea without any pillars supporting it. It was obviously the power of magic.
“Impressive.”
I was genuinely impressed.
“Hehe. Right?”
Morgana, who appeared next to me, clung to me again. I didn’t shake her off. There was no need to push away the sweet female body that was hugging me.
“How is that possible? It’s not going to fall in the middle, is it?”
“The Witch Island was originally capable of floating. This time, there was enough power, and other magicians helped besides me, so it was easy. The problem is… because I was too obsessed with the shape of the bridge, it seems like it’ll be hard to return to the original shape of the island.”
“Are you saying it won’t return to its original shape?”
“That’s right. I changed the shape too drastically. This is the first time I’ve tried something like this, so I didn’t know.”
“That’s a shame. I was going to make the Witch Island my villa.”
“Hehehe. What’s the big deal? If His Majesty the Emperor wants, the Magic Tower and the Black Magic Tower will make a flying villa for you.”
“That’s true.”
I looked at Luteon. Luteon was suspiciously staring at the bridge. If this bridge collapsed in the middle, the 3 million troops would fall into the sea and be annihilated in an instant.
They were soldiers wearing heavy armor. If they fell into the rough sea where the wind and rain were raging, death was certain.
“Luteon. There’s no need to delay. Advance.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The sound of a horn rang out.
The Imperial army began to cross the bridge against the wind and rain. Occasionally, the waves rose high and tried to sweep away the Imperial army, but a transparent barrier appeared on the bridge itself, blocking the waves, as if it had magical power.
“This bridge. It’s quite a good item. If only the size could be reduced… it could be used in many places.”
Luteon was impressed by the performance of the bridge. However, this bridge could not be reduced in size, and the maintenance cost was enormous. This bridge would only be used this once.
That was when it happened.
Suddenly, thick hail began to fall from the sky. The magicians quickly cast defensive magic towards the sky, but there was a limit. Even though they were wearing helmets and holding shields above their heads, the power of the falling hail was so great that many soldiers were dying.
“Tower Master. Is this magic?”
“No, Your Majesty. There is no feeling of magical power at all. It is the work of a spirit. I will resolve it within 5 minutes.”
“Hehehe. 5 minutes? I could resolve it in 3 minutes.”
Morgana provoked him. If she was being malicious, it meant that Morgana’s magical skills were at least equal to the Tower Master’s. The Tower Master quietly glared at Morgana.
“…I will resolve it within 3 minutes.”
“Go ahead.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The Tower Master’s body disappeared. I immediately turned my gaze to the sky. It was instinct, I suppose. I could immediately tell where the Tower Master had teleported to with magic.
Crimson flames blazed among the dark clouds, and cold air swirled.
“He was pretending to be noble, but he’s dealing with it quite crudely?”
Morgana sneered at the Tower Master. The Tower Master appeared before me, panting, in 3 minutes. In his grasp, he held a frozen bird.
“What is that?”
“It is the spirit that was dropping the hail. I brought it because I had the opportunity to capture it alive.”
-Damn humans. You will be cursed! Especially the Emperor! The Earth Mother is watching you! Your grave will be Mailord!
“It seems that the Earth Mother is here. I’ll tell you one thing. I will defile the Earth Mother. I swear on everything I have, the Earth Mother will become a bitch and howl under me.”
-Heh. Hehehe. Foolish and mad Emperor. Try it if you can. You will never fulfill that oath. Hahahaha!
My eyebrows twitched. It had been a long time since someone had openly mocked me, and my mood suddenly worsened. I drew Arondight. The blue aura blade shone. I had already annihilated an ancient spirit, so this top-tier spirit was nothing.
The spirit mocked me even as it was annihilated.
-Hahahaha! Hahahaha!
“Tower Master. Are all top-tier spirits like this?”
“…Spirits are different from each other. They have different personalities. Spirits are not necessarily noble beings.”
“I’m still angry even though I annihilated it. Can’t we capture and torture spirits?”
“Ordinary spirits do not have the sense of pain. It might be possible if we use black magic….”
The Tower Master glanced at Marquis Talmore. Marquis Talmore calmly replied.
“Spirits are not living beings. Torturing spirits is not an efficient thing to do. It would be much better to seal them somewhere.”
“That’s enough. Kill any spirits you see.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The Tower Master and Marquis Talmore bowed their heads.
“Should I help too? I see some wind and water spirits near the sea….”
Morgana spoke to me. When I nodded, Morgana smiled brightly and used magic. Kwaaang! A waterspout rose in the sea due to the shockwave. I knew she was relieving her stress on the spirits.
“Continue. Advance.”
The army moved forward.
Spirits appeared and tried to block the Imperial army, but there was no need for me to step in. It was all handled by Marquis Talmore, the Tower Master, and Morgana. They were indeed the best magicians.
“Your Majesty!”
Luteon called out to me.
“Don’t panic, General. I see it too.”
A total of 5 dragons appeared. They were not as powerful as the ancient dragon I had faced in the Dwarf Kingdom, but the current situation was bad. Back then, the ancient dragon couldn’t use its breath on the Imperial army because it was worried about the dwarves getting caught up in it. But now, the Imperial army was marching on the bridge. It was perfect for being wiped out by a breath attack.
“I must step in.”
The 5 dragons opened their mouths wide in the sky and began to inhale. The dragons’ chests swelled. The principle of dragon breath was to inhale the surrounding mana and exhale it using the mana in their hearts. Since 5 of them were trying to use their breath at the same time, it seemed to take quite a long time.
“They’re using their breath without hesitation. Hehe. I see how many of them are gathered.”
“Y-Your Majesty!”
Luteon cried out urgently. If the Imperial army was annihilated here, the Empire would have no choice but to watch Mailord for the time being. He must be thinking that the unification of the Empire could become a pipe dream if that happened.
“General. What are you worried about when I’m here?”
“…I apologize. However, there are 5 dragons.”
“It’s only 5. It was difficult when I faced the dwarves, but I’m much stronger than I was then. I’ll show you my power.”
I summoned Stormbreaker and Meteor Sword Heaven and combined them. That was because it would make the power of Meteor Sword Heaven stronger.
“Fall, Meteor Sword.”
A giant meteor sword appeared in the sky and fell towards the dragons. The sword, which was over 300 meters long, was wrapped in blue lightning.
