Became the Emperor in the Hero Game

86 – Part 2, Chapter 42

“… “

The being who woke up opened both eyes and contemplated the continent.

Once he was one of the masters of the continent, the continent must follow its old master, I thought.

He confirmed that his spearmen, the Witchbeast Kings, were dying helplessly than he thought, but he didn’t really care.

Even during the Great War, even now.

They are just expendable items.

He looked for something, but when he couldn’t find it, he opened his mouth.

“… Wake up.”

A king must have a servant.

Although it was a lack of things that woke up later than the king and didn’t pave the way, he woke up the rest of the beasts because their abilities were worth seeing.

Ogre Lord Grantun.

Echidna, a snake with hundreds of heads.

Akpa, a turtle carrying a volcano.

His dragon words shook the world and raised lazy servants.

At that moment, the two gazes that had been looking at the continent turned to him.

One demon and one god mixed with dragon blood.

“The king of the continent has returned. So worship.”

What came back was ridicule and contempt.

But the dragon understood.

In any era, there are ignorant and oblivious people who do not recognize the king.

It is also the king’s job to awaken such people.

“You impious people. To me… “

As he was about to complete his dragon words, he looked at the small beings that suddenly appeared in front of him.

Three humans, one beastman, and one elf.

“Did you come to greet the king?”

“… Beast Dragon, Nidhogg. Am I right?”

“Attach the king, and exalt his words. It is small and humble.”

“The Grand Duke, this is a message from Artemia.”

When the name of the white dragon was put in the mouth of the hero Shien, who appeared to deal with the evil dragon, the evil dragon’s eyes were filled with murder.

“How dare you say that name?”

Ordinary knights could die just by being hit, but Shien, surrounded by the light shield encased by the saintess, continued her words slowly.

“You coward who ran away without even challenging the Lord when he claimed to be king himself. It’s a disgrace to the clan. With what kind of face do you show that figure again? Please, commit suicide for the honor of the Balaur.”

“… First, I’ll tear you apart, then I’ll find Artemia and kill her as well.”

The will of the evil dragon became a dragon word, and soon the power to achieve it was given to him.

The huge dragon’s hand or paw fell on top of Shien’s party.

It was a gesture without any skill or technique, but it was so threatening that it could be counted on one finger among all the attacks Shien had ever suffered.

However, Shien had no intention of being inferior to anyone in terms of his simple power.

The blue blade collided with the dragon’s paw.

As with all small and insignificant things, the ferocious dragon thought it would end there.

“… ?”

Black blood splattered in all directions.

His hand was not cut off, but a huge wound was carved in the center of it, and blood gushed out continuously.

The ferocious dragon, which was pushed back due to the recoil from colliding with Shien’s sword, stood blankly and stared at his hand and at Shien, who was fine.

“Hey… big.”

“Estia. Concentrate.”

“Are you concentrating?”

Estia, the black swan, admired the turtle in front of her eyes.

“Looks like it’s bigger than the Imperial Palace?”

“I guess so. You’re being cheeky when it comes to witchcraft.”

It was Duke Pale who received the words of the Black Swan.

I’ve always thought that the two of us had a childlike side, but I never thought this would be the case even at this age.

The Lion King sighed deeply and left the two of them alone and approached the turtle.

Soon the tortoise and the lion king’s eyes met.

The volcano on the tortoise’s back rocked, and then exploded, pouring out fire and lava.

“Survive on your own. Don’t hold back.”

“… I never thought I would hear something like that from Krause.”

“You’re doing well, Kraus.”

Spitting out childish words, the three masters rushed at the turtle while avoiding the pouring fire and lava.

Duke Pale swung his sword towards the eyes of the turtle that was glaring at the masters.

There was still quite a distance between the three masters and the turtle, and because the turtle was so big, its head was also very high, but Duke Pale’s sword ignored all of that and cut off the turtle’s eyes.

Kiehehehehe.

Blood flowed from the turtle’s eyes and a grotesque scream rang out.

The air was ripped open and the ground cracked with just a scream, so the masters raised their auras to protect themselves.

The wounded turtle put his head inside the shell and poured lava even more violently than before.

“… Do something useless.”

“No, did I know that?”

Looking at Duke Pale, who seemed to be saying something unfair, the Lion King raised his sword.

If he hides inside his shell, I’ll break it with his shell.

The overflowing lava could no longer approach and began to melt the ground as it was crushed. The flames could not overcome the pressure and went out one by one.

The Lion King’s sword, which had been squeezing space, was lowered toward the turtle.

The turtle landed following the slowly descending sword.

The ground sank around the turtle, and the pouring lava began to flow into the sunken ground.

However, the tortoise’s shell was not broken.

“Sir Giel.”

“Tell me, Lord Crawl.”

“You weren’t entrusted with escorting Her Highness, were you? Can I stay here?”

“I came under the imperial command. Her Highness is guarded by someone she trusts.”

Remembering the late, half-broken apprentice, Giel said.

As long as Ar protects it, the princess will be safe.

“I think we should be more concerned about us now than Her Highness, what do you think?”

“Well, you are not wrong.”

While chatting, Kraul diligently waved one of his hands.

Already, the earth was corroding with miasma all around them, but the Hwangyeong Knights were cutting off the snake’s head with their swords in their hands, without causing any damage.

A fair number of mages and imperial knights died against the regenerating head of Bear, but judging from the gradually slowing regeneration speed, it seemed that life was not infinite.

“Our knights are already dead, how long will we wait?”

“A lot of our children have died, so please be quiet. You have to kill it the moment you put all your energy into it, so you have to wait a little longer.”

The head of the organization that killed the most nobles in the empire, and the leader of the organization that killed the most soldiers in the empire, watched silently as their men sacrificed their lives to fight the serpent.

Waiting for the moment to make sure the damn thing is out of breath.

———————————————————————-

“Oh, long time no see.”

“I will. Senior Shen. Can you shoot that sitting guy who just looks like a king?”

“Okay. I don’t think it’ll do much damage at this distance.

The 3rd leader Charles and the 2nd leader Shen of the Imperial Knights looked at the army of ogres filling the plain and made a noise.

“Hey, how long has it been since we all got together like this?”

“Uh, sister. Are you here?”

“Yes, Charles. Are you okay?”

“I am fine now.”

The rest of the Imperial Knights gathered behind the 2nd and 3rd groups that had been waiting first.

Rin, the red one among the captains, and the 1st team of the Imperial Knights.

Deputy leader Viol and captain Peltz.

“Isn’t it the first time since the inauguration ceremony of our leader?”

“Yes. On the day of my vice-captain inauguration ceremony, you bastard Shen didn’t come.”

“… I’m sorry, Viol-senpai.”

“All right, by the way, a lot of people gathered. How many of them are there?”

“There are one hundred presumed elites, two hundred wizards, and five hundred others.”

“Hey… Seven hundred ogres. It’s terrible.”

In some cases, the monsters that the knights had to step up and subdue were ogres, but seven hundred such ogres were gathered as an army under one king.

“Simple division.”

When Peltz, the leader of the Imperial Knights, opened his mouth, the noisy captains fell silent.

“Three groups of five hundred normal ogres, two groups of mages, and one group of elite soldiers. Me and viol beat the king of the bastards.”

“… Is the operation meeting over? Humans.”

As soon as Peltz finished speaking, the voice of the ogre lord was heard.

There were close to 1,000 ogres between the Imperial Knights and the Ogre Lord, but nonetheless very clearly.

It was an audible voice.

“So, did you wait? Thank you.”

“I want to ask your name, King of Men.”

“I am not a king, Ogre King.”

Honestly, don’t you deserve to retire and be crowned king?

Fried I heard that he will soon become king.

Crazy bastard, is His Excellency Marquis your friend? Be careful, Charles.

Are you my friend? I come to that Fried.

Shut up, you bastards.

Leaving behind the leaders who were making noise without understanding the atmosphere, Peltz raised his sword and shield and said.

“My name is Peltz, I am the leader of the Imperial Knights of the Shield, which protects the Great Empire and His Majesty.”

“… Grantun. The Red Lord, Grantun. Kisara, that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. Good night. A human knight Let’s compete for supremacy.”

The Ogre Lord, who was sitting on the throne, stood up and said.

At the same time, a presence like Taesan attacked the imperial knights, and the captain, vice-captain, and three captains rallied and resisted.

“All troops, rush.”

“Imperial Knights, sortie.”

Ogre Lord and Peltz’s horse, two armies collided.
