THE EMPEROR OF TWO WORLDS

Knights are not afraid of death

In the meeting room.

In total there were 30 nobles who attended this meeting. They were all wondering what was the reason the Crown Prince held the meeting after the banquet, did he want to bully them again?

Almost all the nobles thought that way, but none of them dared to say that and they just quietly waited for the arrival of the prince. As everyone waited, a side door opened and Prince Alex appeared accompanied by his servant carrying a lot of documents.

As the Prince sat in his place, he began to say "thank you for taking the time to attend this sudden meeting. I invite you here to explain the purpose of the Unity Reform I mentioned earlier."

"First, the arrangement of the ministry is no longer in one noble family. Instead, it will be transformed into an organizational form. Then the second is the re-establishment of our military which was previously divided by the knight system, will now be controlled centrally. And the third is education equally for all people."

"that is the core purpose and that is also the topic of discussion this time. I will begin to explain these three core purposes and after the explanation I have given you, you have the right to ask. All right, I'll start with the first."

"the biggest problem of ministries governed by one family is the limited labor in one family. If you all think this is not a big deal, you are wrong! This is a very dangerous matter for the progress of our kingdom! The affairs of one country cannot be controlled by one noble family alone. This requires the cooperation of many people and also speed up the licensing letter."

Jani went on to explain the plausible reasons and it was accepted by all the nobles who looked like they had political enlightenment from their prince. After a long explanation, it began a question session of nobles who are now thirsty for curiosity and some of these questions are.

"Prince, how is the selection of people who enter into the selection of ministry organizations?"

"initially it started with you nobles, but before that I want you to hand over your respective Corruption books. Don't say you don't have it! In fact this pile of documents in front of me is a record and a report of the many citizens about the corruption that you all do. How do I get it? Of course it's a secret, but it's enough to get you guys involved in corruption to be put to death."

All the nobles then started to become frightened and Jani who saw him immediately laughed while saying "haha! I won't be putting anyone to death anytime soon. Because you're going to hand over the book, right?"

"of course, Prince!"

"yes.that's definitely what I'll do!"

"haha…. I'll hand it over tomorrow, your majesty."

"well, any more questions?"

"Prince, what is the fate of our children who have been elected into your former division?"

"the six divisions will soon be transformed into new ministries, but they are still in the training and testing stages of me. If I feel they deserve it, then they'll be promoted soon!"

Many were excited by this news and after the meeting continued for more than three hours, but it was all worth Jani who managed to unite all the nobles without the need to do any more eliminations.

…

Morning

The front courtyard of the palace was once again filled with many people, but this time it was the entire Knight Order that was in the capital. There were a total of nine Knight Orders in the capital, but there was one Order that was absent that was the Knight Order called the 'HOT BLOOD KNIGHT ORDER'. The order was led by his second brother, Marcus Van Lester is currently on guard in the border city located in the eastern region of the kingdom and directly adjacent to the Rohden empire which is currently in conflict due to the death of General Dom.

Looking at the line of knights wearing glittering armor, Jani couldn't bear to say in her heart 'are they here to show off their armor or what?!'

The knight chief Hertez Bonavic who was currently walking behind Jani noticed Jani's change in expression and only smiled as if understanding the cause of her change in expression. As they stood in front of all the knights, Jani calmly said "Good morning everyone! seeing that you guys are getting ready with your best armor, it looks like you heard the news last night, right?"

No one answered him and saw that Jani said again by raising his voice "why not answer him? Answer me!!?"

"YES! WE'VE HEARD IT!"

"THEN ARE YOU READY TO BE SENT TO THE BATTLEFIELD!"

"YES! WE'RE READY, CROWN PRINCE!"

"IN THAT CASE, ARE YOU READY TO DIE!?"

As Jani asked the final question, once again everyone fell silent. After seeing it, Jani sighed and said "if you are still afraid of death, quickly release the Armour within 10 minutes! If no one has yet released him, then be prepared to accept his punishment!"

Soon they quickly let go, but out of the many knights who hurriedly let go, but there was a knight wearing almost the same armor as the others and still standing firmly even though the others had already rushed off their armor.

Initially Jani will relax while waiting for everyone to finish, but look at the knight. Jani was curious then asked the chief knight standing behind him.

"Uncle Hertez, do you know him?"

"ah! Sir Knight Wallet De Caracas. The Knight Order's Grey Rock Body Knight Order."

"Karakas? Aren't they the rulers of Terra City, the port City in the Western Region ?"

"yes, that's right! But unfortunately the Caracas family is a Businessman family and of all the members of the Caracas family, only he has the determination to become a Knight and come to the capital alone. Although the Caracas family initially opposed the way of the Wallet knight, but after he graduated and officially became a knight, the, his family suddenly expressed their support by sending the armor and also started to open a branch store in the capital."

"hey! Of course it was their ploy to gain influence from the kingdom right?" ask Jani who has guessed the Caracas family plan correctly.

"yes, that's right. Then what do you want to do, Your Majesty?"

"you called him here. I want to talk to him."

When everyone finished releasing all their armour and back in line, Wallet who had been called forward, now faced Jani complete with her armor.

Wallet immediately knelt down and replied "excuse your majesty! I'm…"

Before Wallet finished her words, Jani said in a high voice "Who told you to kneel HUH!? Stand up!! If I ask you stay you answer 'Ready' then you give me an answer. Understood?"

"ready! I understand!!"

"good. Then answer my question once more!"

"Ready! I'm not afraid of death!"

"though you'll be sent to the eastern border and become a knight on the front lines and an easy target for witches?"

"Ready! A knight is obliged to protect his country on the front lines! Moreover, I am willing to be at the forefront with the aim of raising the spirits of the soldiers and achieving victory!"

"you really have the determination of a high knight huh?"

"Ready! I thank you for the compliment!"

"but.."Jani was silent for a moment ago with incredible speed, Jani hit Wallet's armor hard.

*DAMM!!*

The punch was very loud, but Wallet who was hit did not feel any pain at all. Jani just finished hitting Wallet saying "if I said to release your armour, then you should let go. Just get back in your line!"

Wallet was puzzled as to why the Prince suddenly told her to go back into line without giving her punishment, but when she was just one step away to return suddenly a voice sounded from her armor.

*TAK..KRTA..KR!!*

The sound of cracks started to sound again and again until Wallet stopped and then checked. Just then he saw the cracks on his armor begin to spread throughout the armor he had until in the end, the armor fell and detached from his body in the form of being smashed into pieces.

Wallet was speechless and said nothing looking at the armour made from pure Mithirl being crushed due to a single blow from the prince. He began to break out in cold sweat then glanced towards the Prince who remained calm watching his already shattered armor.

When their eyes met, Jani asked "why are you standing there? Hurry along! Back to your line!"

"si.ready! Your majesty!"

"All right! Since you have released your armour, then it is time to do some inspections! I'll go around while you guys make the first move of the 'Magic Knight Swordsmanship'. Do you understand?"

Following the attitude of the previous Wallet, all the knights said "READY! WE UNDERSTAND!!"

…

While Jani did some intection.

From a palace window, Queen Alice looks at her son who is arranging the Kingdom knights. Alice smiled proudly at the sight of her son swiftly arranging the royal knights.

From behind someone said "Alice, aren't you satisfied with seeing your son?"

"sister Agatha~ if you're jealous, why don't you just say it?"

"i'm not jealous, but we're still in a meeting, Alice!" agatha replied that was a bit upset Alice.

"all right, I'm coming!" said Alice who returned to her seat.

After Alice returned to her seat, the King said "alright, Borkus! You can continue your report!"

"well! His majesty. The result of yesterday's battle was that we managed to win easily, but according to our analysis this was far too easy for an attack from the Rohden empire that accumulated such great military might long ago!"

Agatha thought for a while then she said "this attack must be just a distraction!"

Everyone thinks in agreement with Agatha. Then Queen Iris said, "we agree this is a diversion, but where is their target?"

The king told the maids to open a map of their kingdom and together began speculating the point of attack of the Rohden Empire.

Borkus began to say "i think the place will be here."

Agatha who saw the designated place began to answer "it is impossible, General Borkus! The place was very isolated because a large group of 'Stone Ape' had taken control of the forest recently and even they blocked the main access road with large rocks."

"logically it's impossible, but that's what the Queen started. I had to tell you something."

"what's that?"

"i came from this isolated village and I once found a cave with very small access, but inside it was very large and not only that, the cave actually had extremely abundant pure Mana crystals!"

The king and his three queens were surprised instead of playing with the news.
