Chapter 389 – Extraversion. The Princess of Mercy and Character.
After her accession to her, Seorae first appeared the nobles.
It was to evoke the frozen atmosphere due to the large-scale purge and relieve tension.
Fortunately, her well-known personality she played a big role, and the nobles were immediately relieved.
It was because she believed that innocent nobles would not be purged under the pretext of poisoning the emperor and assassinating the princess.
After appeasing the nobles, she summoned envoys from all over the world and appealed to them that she had not changed.
In particular, she loosened her guard by providing various economic support and active exchanges with the countries attached to the Mei Empire.
To what extent it was effective, the soldiers guarding the border joked with each other even though they were soldiers from other countries, and even went hunting together. She had no boundaries at all.
In that way, Seorae did things worthy of her reputation in the early days of her reign.
She only works for peace, she speaks only for peace.
She became the self-proclaimed Emperor of Peace.
Then one day.
Seorae suddenly started gathering troops and mercenaries.
She set up rooms in each region, conscripted women, and recruited mercenaries by making famous generals.
She and her border soldiers were subjected to intensive training, causing uneasiness in her neighbors.
“I will go and find out.”
Sparta believed in Seorae.
When she was a princess, she was truly an idiot, but since she was educated, she hasn’t changed.
She then showed her mercy and sent the Spartan envoys back, even though she almost killed herself.
However, apart from personal belief, the people were anxious, so confirmation was necessary in some form.
“You?”
“Your mother. I want to see the Emperor of the Empire once.”
“Hmm… Okay. Be it You yourself go and find out what’s going on and come back.”
“Your mother.”
So, in Sparta, the princess led an envoy and visited the Mei Empire.
She sent envoys not only from Sparta, but also from Athens, Macedonia, and Budynaum.
“Welcome!”
Seorae warmly welcomed them all.
“Ah… I hadn’t thought of that. But don’t get me wrong. I just want the people to live in a better country.”
“Yes? What is that… ?”
She also eagerly explained how to suddenly gather soldiers.
“We, the imperial family or the royal family… Nobles live without scarcity. However, the people do not. As a mother of the people, how can she ignore the difficulties of her children? Collecting soldiers is to strengthen security, and collecting mercenaries is to prepare for the unexpected. So don’t be anxious. I respect you guys.”
There were some suspicious parts, but since it was none other than ‘Seorae’, I believed it and moved on.
He is a newborn emperor who has not yet been emperor for less than a year. He may simply not know how to fully express his will.
After reassuring the envoys like that, Seorae slightly touched the nobles this time.
“I have been dreaming about my mother and my brother lately. When that happens, I’m so afraid I can’t sleep.
I’m afraid that the same thing as last time will happen, so I think I need to do something. Can you send me only 1,000 troops from each family?”
“Chi, thousand people… Do you speak…?”
“Yes. Oh, of course it’s not compulsory. Because each of you will have your own circumstances. If a thousand is difficult, five hundred… If even 500 is difficult, give 100. If even that is difficult, you don’ t have to respond.”
“Um….”
Nobles were divided into several groups.
With those who gladly gave a thousand,
Likewise, those who wanted to give with a happy heart but could not afford it, so they gave five hundred.
And they are the ones who have no choice but to offer a hundred people or even give it as an excuse.
Of course, there were also those who noticed something with a ghostly sense and dedicated a number that far exceeded 1,000.
About 300,000 soldiers were sent by nobles.
Even though most of them did not send them away with various excuses, the fact that such a large number gathered meant that the power of the Mei Empire was as strong as that.
Seorae combined the armies into one and took care of everything from organization to command system to create a direct army that obeyed only his orders.
And one day
The troops deployed on the borders of each country began to move at once under the command of Seorae.
Its total strength is 140,000.
The armies that did not hesitate to cross the border surrounded the frontier fortresses of Sparta, Athens, Verdynaum, Germanic, and Macedon, respectively, and began to be so tight that not a single rat could go out.
At this point, the envoys from each country came to Seorae in a panic, and Seorae also personally met them.
“Your majesty! What is this about!”
“Why are you raising an army to besiege the city?”
The nobles of the Mei Empire were also puzzled.
Seorae, who had been crying out for peace, suddenly crossed the border and besieged the castle….
Still, they believed in Seorae in a corner of their hearts.
If others did it, it would have been for the war, but since Seorae, it seemed like there must be a special reason.
‘After that, training or something…Haha… ‘
But it can’t be.
Which crazy army will lay siege to the castle of another country for training?
Food.
Seorae laughed slightly.
The envoys and the nobles, at least those present here, were seeing their faces for the first time.
“I’m trying to occupy you guys.”
The words that came out really shocked me!
“… Yes?”
The envoys made dumb noises, and even the nobles didn’t recognize what the situation was.
“What did you expect? If you’ve besieged a castle, of course you’re trying to capture it. Are you stupid?”
Those words, mingled with ridicule, mercilessly beat the gods of death’s brains.
And the nobles were equally shocked.
Seorae, who always cared about dignity and grace and was full of dignity in every word, to think of herself like that…
“Go… Suddenly… Why…?”
“What do you mean suddenly? I’ve been saying it for a long time I will occupy you.”
“!!”
“Go back if you know. Because I have nothing more to say.”
Seorae gestured as if it was annoying, and the guards dragged the envoys out while being confused.
“Your majesty..! Your majesty!!”
The blackout where the gods of death were expelled was truly silent.
No one opened their mouths.
The suddenly changed appearance of Seorae gave them a suffocating pressure.
“Oh, I feel a little better now. If it’s an empire, I mean. We have to constantly keep our neighbors in check. Because you don’t know if it will always change from weakness to grandeur. Is it not so?”
“Yes? That, that… It is.”
“So that’s what I mean. I think we need to do some big expeditions. Besides them, there are a lot of places to deal with. For that to happen, my back needs to be stable….”
Seorae looked around and called out several nobles with a beckoning gesture.
They came forward with a feeling of half fear and half doubt.
Seorae jumped down from the chair she was sitting on and patted them on the shoulders.
“Thank you. I was really thrilled. I really didn’t know you would send troops. Besides, he sent almost 10,000 people?”
As he circled around them, he cheered them up by telling them the number of troops, knights, and archers they had sent.
To say that you are the only public servants of the country…
Hearing such words made me bewildered but also smiled.
Feeling favored by the emperor, it seemed that the future was bright.
‘Also!! This was Your Majesty’s test! Trying to clearly distinguish who you are and who you are not!’
So while they were smiling victoriously, Seorae shook hands with a nobleman and called the guards and knights.
“The knights there.”
“Yes!”
“From now on, listen to what I am saying. Got it?”
“Yes, yes!”
Seorae smiled brightly at the nobles who were not chosen.
“Kill all but the kids I took.”
Of course, there was a strange noise.
“… Yes?”
“Did you not hear? Kill them all these bitches.”
“Your Majesty?”
“You refuse my request because you feel sorry for only a thousand people? How can you manage this empire with such disloyal children? To lead a country of this size, isn’t unity more important than anything else? So what should I do? The bitches who don’t listen have no choice but to be beaten to death.”
Is this really real?
Is that person truly the ‘Princess of Mercy and Personality’?
The nobles fled from reality with a hum among each other, and the soldiers and knights who received the order did not know what to do.
“Would you like to die instead? Kill me now.”
However, several knights rushed at Seorae’s words that followed, and starting with that, a collective sword dance took place in the main hall.
Drops of blood splatter everywhere and limbs fall off.
It took only a moment for the holy blackout to turn into a terrible mayhem.
Come and go
The aristocrats chosen by Seorae watched with trembling.
Truly, without any hesitation, slaughter hundreds of nobles.
Since he killed the nobles, of course the family is also extinct.
And inevitably, thousands and tens of thousands of people will suffer from it.
Match!
Seorae clapped once.
“Now, let’s continue our meeting. There are so many places to occupy.”
