9th Circle Lord - 179 #179화 conflicts
Elmont’s direct line to the imperial family has been healthy for generations.
It was a matter of course.
She has enjoyed luxurious benefits since she was born.
A dedicated healer was always on standby to take care of his health, and he also enjoyed the environment where he could taste the delicacies of the continent.
It was an environment that couldn’t help but be healthy.
However, when he became an emperor, everyone was weak as if he had done so.
It has been for generations since Jillian’s official death, and now it turns out that all the emperors after Jillian were being used like puppets.
The spirit of weakness cannot change the faith of the legend.
Thus, the previous emperors had never lived long, and the present Donovan was.
His face appeared to be an old man, but Donovan was 40 lines long.
Even though he is still healthy, his shoulders are stretched and his waist is bent.
‘It’s already gone.’
Donovan lost his vitality.
He no longer had the power to lead a huge federal empire.
I needed a replacement.
I’m glad to hear that.’
Fortunately, the empire was able to recover quickly.
The next successor after Donovan had to be decided.
Once Jillian’s influence has disappeared, the next emperor to be elected will unfold his youth.
The nobles moved at Luther’s instruction.
He had to be called in because he had to decide on a successor.
The vast iron gate of Daejeon opened and the emperor’s children appeared one by one.
The imperial family was small enough for the seeds to dry up for generations.
So the seeds were very precious, but there was little conflict thanks to them.
Looking at history, the more successors there were for generations, the fiercer the fight was.
There were three princes in total.
They were all young people in their mid-20s.
Luther looked indifferently at the princes who were approaching with great care like the triumphant general.
The eldest son, Johannes, with Johannes. Black hair is the second son, Blow. Finally, blonde hair was my third son, Rexter.
There were a total of three succession.
Coming up side by side, they knelt down and bowed to Luther, who was sitting on the throne of Sangseok.
“I see the great Emperor of the Empire.”
Looking at the three shouting side by side, Luther said.
“It was a good thing you’ve come. You know why I called you.”
Three people raised their heads in unison.
The way he looked at Luther was big.
Everyone has a desire.
Luther, who nodded, continued.
“As you can see, I am now decrepit and infirm. There is no more power to lead the empire. I will select one of you and give you the throne. Ask me if you have any questions.”
Johannes stood up and faced Luther.
“Are you very sick?”
Luther smiled bitterly at the worried gaze.
“To be an emperor, you have to act well.’
I know it’s an empty word, but I just answered back.
“I don’t have a disease right now. But I’m exhausted.”
The second son, Blow, stood up and nodded slowly.
“It’s time for you to relax.”
Rexter also responded.
“That’s right. My father went through a lot. It’s time for us to help.”
Johannes returned the inquiry.
“We? Will we?”
Blow laughed coldly at the provocative question.
“Good point. The youngest. Unfortunately, not everyone can be emperor.”
Rexter just shrugged.
He looked up at Luther and asked.
“What should we do now?”
“I’ll pass the test. If you satisfy me, you will be able to take over the throne. Do you all agree?”
“Is everyone on the same test?”
“Yes, one side needs to be better. However, I will never forgive you if you interfere with each other. If you disappoint me, I’ll be deprived of my position as well. So now is the time to show your ability rather than your own span.”
Luther, who blocked conflicts between successors, presented a planned test.
“From now on, we will let each of you control the barren land, so make it a place where people can live.”
It was the same test, but the place was different.
Johannes was a desert region in the west, and Blau was a volcanic region in the south. Finally, Rexter was a tundra region close to the northern heterogeneous zone.
It is a place where there are no people and there is no development.
Luther unilaterally notified the three embarrassed people.
To become an emperor, we must run an empire. We’ll see how well you can take care of the city and create a barren environment.”
Johannes sighed.
“It’s too difficult.”
He expressed it as an ordeal, not an exam.
That’s how difficult it is.
Luther explained.
“Elmont was originally located in the desert west of the Basco Empire. It started there and came to the present. If you have learned the wisdom and experience of your ancestors, you will be able to overcome the ordeal. Remember, if you don’t prove your value, you can’t become an emperor.”The three nodded without realizing it.
I could become an emperor only if I proved the value.
Blau said with respect.
“We will prove our value in accordance with the will of the great Emperor.”
“For the Elmont Empire.”
“For His Majesty the Emperor.”
After greeting, three people turn around and go out.
Luther thought he had been fixed.
A good man will be the Emperor.’
I didn’t favor anyone.
It had to be fair and fair, but the current examination would be a great reference to the election of a future healthy emperor.
Luther flicked his finger.
At the signal, the emperor’s secret entourage appeared.
“Watch and report the situation in real time. And if there’s anyone who’s playing tricks, be sure to record it.”
“Yes.”
“Don’t stop observing until you get the results. Report will be received later. I’m not feeling well, so I’m going to take a long break.”
“I’ll be ready.”
“During the break, stand as an agent.”
“Yes.”
The attendants disappeared and a series of maids appeared.
Luther followed them to the comfortable bath.
After soaking, he gave instructions.
“I want to be alone for a while, so everybody back off.”
The maids disappeared and Luther separated from Donovan’s body.
He manipulated Donovan’s mind and decided to rest as mentioned earlier.
‘I’m going to go to a heterogeneous society.’
First, the human empire tied a knot.
Next, it’s Lee Jong-
Luther made his way to the north as if he were entering and leaving the most secure palace on the continent.
Luther’s vision is endless.
If he wanted, he could watch the island in the northernmost part of the world.
Observing the northern part of the stratosphere, which has low air, we can see the heterogeneous population from time to time.
Luther’s expression of observing carefully is not good.
What’s that supposed to do?’
Elves and Dwarves. And the water people are intertwined and fighting.
The enemy was only a clan liver, and the battle was brutal.
I wonder what happened.
“I don’t know what’s going on, so I’ll have to wait and see.’
I would have come forward if I knew the situation, but I had to wait and see because I didn’t know what happened.
The situation was cracked when Dwarf stepped down.
I confronted the Elves with magic weapons, but I guess I can’t handle the power of the spiraling Spirit.
When Dwarf stepped down, the weight of the Suin people intensified.
Eventually, the battle ended as the Suin people stepped down.
Enemies withdrew, but the scene was empty as the elves began to track down.
Then Luther appeared alone in the place where death was flowing.
He looked around.
All of them are lying down, regardless of race.
Luther sighed.
‘What’s going on here?
Why are they fighting?
They were different, but they were in the same situation.
After being persecuted by the dragon, he was liberated and freed.
It is not enough to care for each other, but they are pointing weapons at each other over how long time has passed.
Luther looked at the dead Elf.
He was a handsome male elf.
He died of a fatal wound to his chest.
‘You’re gonna need a disguise.’
The Elf that Luther pointed out was the right target.
It was not because of its appearance, but because of its wear, it is wearing silk with golden thread unlike other people.
Since ancient times, clothing means the identity of an opponent.
Luther guessed that the dead male elf would be higher than others.
We have decided on the subject of disguise.
He dug the ground, buried the elf, and lay on it.
After a while, he had the same appearance as the Elf on his face.
Get up!
The busy sound of stepping on the branches reached the nearest distance.
“I’ll kill everyone.”
“I won’t forgive you all.”
When an angry voice was heard, Luther groaned to listen.
“Ummm.”
“Orpannim!”
“Orphan is alive!”
A hopeful cry bursts out and Luther’s body is heard by the spirit of the wind.
“Come on, hurry up!”
“We need to save Orphan!”
With the cries of the elves, Luther was moved into a deep forest.
Blue-eyed Elf colony. Sky forest.
Luther lies in the deepest part of this militant tribe.
Luther pretended to be confused all the way here.
And I overheard the Elves coming and going, but it’s not a sight to hear.
‘You’re a mountaineer.’
Unlike her beautiful face and beauty, the content was brutal.
Some say that they will bring out Dwarf’s organs and that they will crush the faces of the Suin people.
There is no accurate information because the elves are emotional.
‘I’d rather grab an Elf and look into his memory.’But I got one piece of information.
The male elf he was posing as was the head of the blue-eyed elf tribe.
Since it was an important position, there will be no restrictions on the scope of activities in the future.
It was a green forest like the sky that moved him to.
I don’t know what kind of seedlings they planted, but all the flowers that bloom from the branches of the trees planted on the ground are sky blue.
Luther passed through the forest into the Elves’ residence, where he built a barrier.
He was an intensive caregiver for now, but the treatment was very fast.
The wounds were washed away using pure water spirits, and the trauma was treated using magic.
It is surprising that the Elf deals with spirits and magic at the same time.
Luther decided to wake up when the wound seemed to have been cured.
“Ummm!”
“Orphan is awake!”
“Are you out of your mind?”
“Where am I?”
It’s a clear voice considering that I just woke up.
“This is our home.”
“What happened to the enemy?”
“I tried to kill them all, but I ran cowardly everywhere and missed them.”
“I should have killed all of them, but I’m sorry.”
“The next time I face it, I will burn it without leaving anything behind.”
Leaving behind his brutal determination, Luther tried to raise himself.
The Elves helped and Luther slowly pulled himself up.
He gave orders to other elves over a dedicated therapist.
“I want to be alone. Everybody back off without a therapist.”
“I’m glad you’re alive. Then we’ll get going.”
“Take good care of yourself.”
Luther, who was left alone with the therapist after the Elves returned, began to act.
“Look at my eyes.”
He stared at the therapist.
The therapist’s eyes became blank and his memory unfolded.
Luther drew an impression.
“That’s not good.
I remember the therapist, and all I saw was combat.
The same elves fought among themselves and against other ethnic groups.
Why are there so many disputes between the two ethnic groups?
Luther sighed.
“It was an empty-minded person.”
Was it a comedy from a distance or a tragedy from a close distance?
Unlike when they first woke up and faced the world, the world’s tribes were suffering from deep bone disease.
I wonder what happened.
Luther began to trace the therapist’s memory step by step to learn more.
