Chapter 136: Eastern Empire

Eastern Empire.

One of the oldest countries.

Its official name is the Sovereign Alliance of the Naska-Samrium Empire of Ulmeria. (SAN-NUE) [1]

People say that it has been two thousand years since the first record spoke of the state run by San-nue.

Managed under his incredible power.

And for two thousand years, San-nue did not allow a single rebellion to go unpunished.

Under the sole emperor, Ludora Nam Ul Naska.

Who rules with an iron fist.

And thus the empire ended up being called a simple Eastern Empire.

The Eastern Empire was a homogeneous state.

They rule through power, conquering and plundering, complete battle maniacs.

The sole belief [Strength is Everything] allows anyone to achieve greatness as long as they are strong.

There is only one reason why this kingdom has not invaded the Jura – forest they are in the middle of preparations.

Three hundred and fifty years ago, they attempted to conquer Veldora and lost a city to it. A strange dragon crushed him before they could be as much regret.

About a hundred thousand lives were lost that day, and it was a fortified city to become the gate of a jungle raid. They have built it for over a hundred years.

“Build your army, conquer the forest, and expand our power. "It was the Empire's burning desire ever since.

Expand outside of Jura forest – their failure makes them sad for a hundred years.

But why did the country as many as the Empire needed to expand?

Just because the Emperor wanted it to be.

That was the only reason, but no one complained.

And as the invasion plan progressed, the Empire built up its forces and weapons.

And hundreds of years ago they announced plans for an invasion.

Who would have thought that one stupid idea the commander had would cause the plan to be destroyed?

The forest needs a master. That lizard is no threat to us!

This stupid thought made them die.

They barely know what's really going on. Books, chroniclers, and anyone who knew were reduced to ashes.

Their dreams, their ambitions, were reduced to ashes.

And time passed.

The Empire continued with an additional credo: “Never attack the Jura Forest. ”

Veldora's anger left scars; her power revealed just how vast the world really was; the Empire could never consider an invasion.

There are those who hate Veldora, but none of them disobey the – bosses each banning the invasion.

Thus, the sound of a young warhawk never reached the upper echelon. As such, the army grew stronger, regaining control better than it had been before the invasion.

They could not let the second invasion fail.

For them, this was an opportunity to prove their loyalty to their Empire.

And two years earlier, they received the news.

Storm Dragon Veldora disappeared.

Empire rejoices. The time has come! The drum of war is beating now even in the hearts of commanders.

These were not brash youths; they were hardened warriors, so the flames on their chests burned all the brighter ones.

Moreover, they could barely let their Emperor wait any longer.

And the Emperor blessed them with one word, and,

"Prepare"

The empire burned in activity.

The Empire, you know, has a Political and Military branch. Both were administered directly by the Emperor.

No one else had any real power there.

There are nobility, but their only boon is a fancy name and the ability to enter parliament without an election.

Maybe some of them do own and manage property, but it will be a rare and special person.

In other words, the Emperor had absolute power.

This Feudalistic state listened to the wishes of not the people but the emperor. Every soldier pledged his allegiance to the Emperor.

Even the Imperial Guard was merely a position rotated between various forces.

Can you believe it: one person manages every aspect of such a large country.

But despite how strange it is, the truth is: The Empire has enjoyed years of prosperity.

The Emperor gave the order.

Surely everyone was happy to hear them, but no one rushed their – meticulously carrying out his orders.

And soon the preparations are done.

A train to the capital.

Inside, between the trunks, an unarmed man lay down and two women sat down.

The carriage was driven by a knight dressed in black.

Yuuki Group.

「By the way, shouldn't we return your arm?」

Kagali asks Yuuki the clearest question in the world.

The loss of body parts, although significant, can be treated with high-grade herbs. Even Kagali's magic could recover such wounds.

There was almost no reason to remain without weapons, at least there was no reason Kagali could think of.

「Hmm? It's okay, it doesn't matter!

They say blacksmiths are great in the empire, so I was thinking of getting a metal arm! 」

「Haaah ?! Fuck you dare say, after losing to that Leon!

Whahuh? “I will definitely win!” You saying?

Instead you suffered a terrible defeat and we barely escaped with our lives! 」

「Ahaha. So that you become so angry. He is stronger than I thought, so what can I do about him?

Moreover, it is not a loss if you live to see the morning! *kek*

I gained supreme skills and stole the power of the Dragon of Chaos.

Also took away the teleportation power of the Red Knight, so what was the problem? 」

Yuuki casually responded to Kagali's grunts.

He is not reflecting at all. Realizing that, Kagali decided to give up.

The fact is, Yuuki suffered a crushing defeat before Leon.

His ace was useless, and the ability he gained was not worth the loss.

Fortunately, when the power of the Chaos Dragon was taken away it disrupted the magnetic field in the atmosphere that allowed Yuuki and the others to escape by teleporting.

Even so, Kagali couldn't bear to see Yuuki remain like him, so

「Yuuki-sama, are you sure you don't want me to help you?

Leon is much stronger than I remember.

Therefore, I have to take responsibility for my mistakes, but I have to ask …

Why are you holding him? 」

When Kagali finished her sentence, Chloe opened her eyes and glanced at Yuuki,

For a moment, Chloe can "see" Yuuki's true strength.

Since it was only for a moment, Chloe was unable to gauge her true strength and could only condemn her inadequate analytical skills.

Even so, it was clear that he had other excellent skills.

And this is not something Chloe can ignore.

「Ahahaha, what do you expect? I can't go around showing off my strength in front of Chloe.

We will fight in the end, and, although he might suck at analyzing, he can always let Demon Lord Rimuru know – who clearly excels at it.

I mean, I have to keep at least one hand, right? 」

"Hey! That means, Kagali! 」

Always hide his true intentions under the guise of a clown.

But this time she may have spoken her mind, Chloe thought.

She really enigma – Kagurazaka Yuuki.

His words were full of lies and deception.

Like that time with the kids,

『Oh, don't you know?

When a child's body is on the verge of breaking down the energy it releases is just right for another summoning.

In other words, you could try repeating the summoning! 』

Without question, it's a lie.

Yuuki si 『Caller』 —like it is one of his unique skills– does not need that energy.

He can keep calling as long as he wants. Well, given the necessary requirements he had to wait a month, but still. .

No need to recycle children.

Ever since Chloe observed him, she had recorded how strange he really was.

He wished for the world to be destroyed, but handled his Guild duties admirably.

He said that he exploits children, but he builds a good school for them.

He did not hesitate to commit a crime, and would probably go all the way without hesitation. Even when opposing «Demon Lords», he deliberately used hostages and stole Claud's heart …

Even so, if he really wanted to destroy this world, his methods were at least haphazard.

In fact…

「Hey, why didn't you take the Red Knight's life?

If you want, you can take his soul energy, right? 」

Without breaking her gaze, Chloe asked Yuuki.

"Huh? Whatchu mean? I took everything.

If there's anything left it's because I haven't been able to use the skill well.

Shit, I guess I should have pulled more 」

Yuuki replied, laughing cheerfully.

Chloe concluded that it was impossible to get a direct answer from her. If so, he could do anything but continue to observe it.

Enigma – Kagurazaka Yuuki's.

If she really wants to destroy the world, then she is, without a doubt, Chloe's enemy. For that reason he will continue to watch over her.

Rimuru, Leon, Ruminas, Hinata, and children.

He has many people he loves.

If Yuuki were to attempt to destroy their world, he would mercilessly slaughter him.

But what if he was looking for something else?

Before he finished thinking, the city where they were going to live appeared.

Capital of the world's most powerful military state, Naska.

Chloe closed her eyes again.

There are a lot of things to consider, and Chloe is bad at thinking things through.

He will observe first and think later. About Yuuki, and about his purpose.

In the end, Chloe could only observe.

The Imperial military was split into three divisions.

Armored Corps – wonders of technology by Empire engineers. They rode modern tanks and symbolized the Empire's technological prowess.

The Beast Corps – from the four corners of the world, the Empire brought in ferocious beasts with incredible strength and forced them to obey. They symbolize the power of the Empire.

And the Mixed Corps – a group of engineers resist and exile wild beasts. These members are too strong and too smart to work as one organization.

If their powers were combined they would be the most powerful threat.

They represent the heart of the Empire. As young as possible.

Their army was not something that could be achieved without the influence of another world.

Otherworld's technology and skills are intertwined to create an army of prowess never seen before.

The Empire did not only gather ferocious beasts from the four corners of this world.

People with a variety of skills and knowledge.

The Empire welcomed world travelers with open arms, and most of them stayed there.

That is why their influence changed the empire.

Of course, there were many in the Empire who had unique skills, these had also been gathered into soldiers.

The empire has grown too strong.

And behind the scenes other soldiers are protecting the Empire.

But calling it an army was too many, at most units, but its strength far surpassed that of the third army.

In other words, they were strong enough to be called an army despite being a single entity.

The Empire was founded on the saying that power is everything.

There are two beings who have absolute power who have authority over the other [2].

Emperor himself, generalissimo is one.

The other was the de facto commander of the armed forces, believed by the Emperor himself. The creature also had the duty to protect the Emperor with the Guards.

The creature was so powerful that it was said to surpass the demon kings, and had ensured the safety of the Kingdom for hundreds of years.

There are three generals. These three commandments are each of the three armies.

These four men were the pillars of the Empire.

Each of them had been given valuable God-tiered equipment belonging to the Empire. Extraordinary strength equipment.

The strongest equipment that no one had previously been able to become equal.

And then the Guards.

A hundred people with great strength joined the Guard; their strength was legendary.

Of course, many of them were from other worlds.

The Empire does not discriminate against world travelers, and only recognizes power.

To these hundred people, the Emperor gave legendary equipment. These hundred were the Empire's strongest power.

But how are a hundred chosen?

Through duels and battles between troops.

A system in which young people can seize the seat of elders. Although it is forbidden during the march, any member of the army can challenge the superior for a duel. .

If they were defeated, they would have to wait a year before they were allowed to challenge him again. Thus, everyone continued to sharpen their skills.

That's the best system for a country where power is everything.

In the place of the captain, the Guards will serve. As a result, if you want to raise the status, you will wait for the chance to beat them.

And…

A general was replaced for the first time in decades.

A boy has made history.

This boy reached the peak of the Empire.

With metal arms, Kagurazaka Yuuki became a Mixed Forces General in no time.

A legendary warrior.

In the blink of an eye he built up support for himself; and although there had been some who supported him from the start, no one objected.

And now, now,

The Mixed Army was consolidated under one will.

Legend would go down to say that the invasion of the Empire began on the day Yuuki gained power.
