[System Erinyes identifies Kang Chul-In, the Supreme King of the West, as the ‘Emperor’!]
[Change in title!]
[Job advancement!]
[Kang Chul-In’s title is changed from the ‘Supreme King of the West’ to ‘Emperor’! (King -> Emperor)]
[Congratulations! You’ve ascended the imperial throne!]
Kang Chul-In became sentimental upon reading this message.
Finally...!
Pzzt! He could feel the electric current shooting up his entire body. His dream finally came true. Nothing in this world could stimulate this thrill and delight. Kang Chul-In went through 10 years of trial and error, had his heart pierced by his rival’s sword, and also had his head sliced off. He then returned to the past. Seeking vengeance, he had never relaxed for the past 5 years after he had returned to the past. He worked day and night. Not only did he refine his combat abilities, but he also placed an emphasis on dealing with domestic affairs. Kang Chul-In never dismissed any paperwork and struggled to earn money to change the economic system, which previously relied on looting others.
That wasn’t all. He suppressed his bad temper and tried his best to accommodate for all the territories he had conquered. At the same time, he never neglected his family. Kang Chul-In was a filial son to his mother, and he raised Arshelly strictly to guide her to the right path. Although he came to practice polygamy unintentionally, he still managed to pull it off.
I deserve it.
He was right. Objectively speaking, Kang Chul-In deserved to be crowned emperor. Didn’t he achieve his ambition through agonizing hard work? He didn’t have to be humble. He just had to accept the title of ‘Emperor’!
[With the termination of the ranking system, the Soul Cores of all 48 Lords except the Emperor are to be reclaimed!]
This message signaled the start.
“Huh?”
“W-What?”
Dorian and Hecate were dumbfounded to see their Soul Cores vanish into thin air. Every Lord’s Soul Core in Pangaea disintegrated. At the same time, all the energy in the Soul Cores began to integrate into Kang Chul-In’s Soul Core. Countless notifications appeared in front of Kang Chul-In.
[You have obtained ownership of Temeraire!] [You have obtained ownership of Bifrost!] [You have obtained ownership of Nosferatu!] [You have obtained ownership of Zolushka!] [You have obtained ownership of Shatyameba!] [You have obtained ownership of Dorado!]
There was no end.
Excluding those that were destroyed, all the territories now belonged to Kang Chul-In.
In addition,
[You have obtained ownership of Stingray!] [You have obtained ownership of Gothika!] [You have obtained ownership of Simurgh!]
600 small and big ownerless territories now belonged to Kang Chul-In, When Desdemona tampered with Erinyes, the remaining territories in the system were transferred to Kang Chul-in, becoming his property. Yes, that was the main point. The Emperor had ownership of everything stored in Erinyes. In other words, Kang Chul-In was now the ruler of the whole continent!
Rumble, crack!
After that, the sky and ground began to split into half. The Pangaea continent, or to be precise, the ‘planet,’ rumbled, and everything stored in Erinyes was transferred to Pangaea.
This was known as the second coming, or ‘Apovigna’, and it meant that the world was about to restore itself!
***
Thick storm clouds were gathering above the whole of Pangaea. Thunder and lightning struck relentlessly. The land continued to tremble. Ocean waves grew as tall as skyscrapers, and gigantic tsunamis crashed down onto the shores. Moreover, several brilliant beams of light pierced through the clouds and illuminated various parts of the world. One by one, everything stored in Erinyes began to reveal itself.
It was a cataclysm. The reconstruction of Pangaea, planned by the Emperor of Blood and Iron and Emilia 1000 years ago, was finally coming true.
After three days. The cataclysm came to a conclusion. Kang Chul-In stepped out to address his first matter as the Emperor.
“His Imperial Majesty has arrived!” Timothy shouted as Kang Chul-In stepped onto the red carpet. He truly had the charisma of an Emperor. He had the Ectoplasm Oversuit, the black and shining armor, Kaiforce, the demon sword, and Mitra, the light sword. He also had a red cape made personally by Alfred with the best fabric and the Tiara of Reign – the Emperor’s crown. Equipped with these items, Kang Chul-In gave off an air of magnanimity.
“Long live his Imperial Majesty!”
“Hooray!”
“Long live the Valhalla Kingdom!”
“Hooray!”
All the subjects bowed to Kang Chul-In with respect and admiration. Kang Chul-In passed by the subjects without a word and sat on the throne. The throne was magnificent. It wasn’t the destroyed throne made from the gold drake’s skull. This new throne was made from a real gold dragon’s skull. Used by the emperors of the Ancient Empire 1000 years ago, it was also known as the Throne of Reign.
“Not yet.” Kang Chul-In spoke. “I haven’t become a true emperor yet.”
His sentence puzzled many subjects.
“Your Imperial Majesty, what do you mean?” Nilus the Arch Mage, who was now old, asked his master. “How could you not be a true Emperor? You are clearly the absolute authority on this continent! A conqueror! Your imperial Majesty, you are truly the Emperor!”
“That’s not true.” Kang Chul-In shook his head. “The threat is still here.”
“T-Threat?” Nilus was shocked.“Pardon me, but I fail to concur with your words. The Shatyameba monster troop in the south has already perished. Moreover, the Ancient Empire in the north is segmented and can no longer match up to us. You have already conquered the whole continent, why do you say as such?”
He was right. Nobody could challenge Kang Chul-In now. Only about 10 out of the 48 Lords remained in Pangaea. The rest escaped to Earth. There was no longer any competition. Kang Chul-In had already taken control of all the territories, including the 600 other territories stored in Erinyes. What kind of idiot would dare to challenge him?
Furthermore, the remaining Lords in Pangaea were either married to Kang Chul-In or had a favorable relationship with him.
“Your Imperial Majesty, the people of the Ancient Empire have been requesting to inhabit our nation every day. That’s not all. Your Imperial Majesty now owns 500,000 soldiers that were dormant in the other dimension.”
Currently, Kang Chul-In has 500,000 more soldiers in his arsenal. This was an addition to the 500,000 soldiers he already had.
A million-soldier army! The Valhalla Kingdom had the power to fight the rest of Pangaea and emerge victorious.
“No.” Kang Chul-In disagreed with Nilus. “Not yet.”
“Huh... your imperial Majesty...”
“We have another enemy to fight against.”
“Another enemy? Please enlighten this dull servant of yours, your imperial Majesty!” Nilus bowed.
“Please enlighten us, your imperial Majesty!”
So did the other subjects. Although the world had undergone restructuring, they had no clue as to why it happened. It was because they lacked memories from 1000 years ago.
“A thousand years ago...” Hence, Kang Chul-In decided to reveal the truth. “When this world was ruled by the Emperor of Blood and Iron, Julius Berlineta Pon Aurangzeb, an alien race invaded.”
It was a confidential matter by right. However, Kang Chul-In thought otherwise.
They have to know too.
There was still one last fight. Rindermergel, the Relentless Predator, was about to revive. To fend off Rindermergel and his Agnaga army, everyone had to fight together as one. The only way to make it possible was to instill an extremely strong motivating factor. Otherwise, they could resist the Agnaga army but never win.
In addition,
Now’s the time to protect, not extort.
Protecting his empire was more important than anything else. All his efforts to build the empire could go to waste if Rindermergel revived and destroyed this world and Earth.
I will protect my achievements.
Therefore, Kang Chul-In decided to fend Rindermergel, not only because of the Emperor of Blood and Iron’s will or a heroic intention, but also because of his wish to protect his personal achievements.
“The alien race is called Agnaga. Long ago, this race invaded and destroyed this land.”
Kang Chul-In’s words shocked everyone.
“Those bastards, those motherfuckers...” Kang Chul-In emphasized. “They are trying to revive and conquer Pangaea, and even invade Earth afterwards. I plan to stop them from doing so. I will annihilate all of those who dare to attack this world.”
Kang Chul-In had dropped the bomb.
“W-What...!”
“Y-Your Imperial Majesty! What do you mean...!”
“P-Please elaborate! Your Imperial Majesty!”
“It’s hard to believe, your imperial Majesty!”
“So our new enemy is this alien race called Agnaga?”
This was to be expected. Kang Chul-In’s words sounded too abstract for the subjects who had no memories of the past.
“Let me elaborate.” Kang Chul-In explained calmly. “Everything started 1000 years ago, when the Emperor of Blood and Iron ruled the continent.”
Just like that, the story from 1000 years ago became widely known to everyone, elucidated by none other than Kang Chul-In himself.
The next day, Kang Chul-In’s first imperial order was announced.
I, the Emperor of the Valhalla Empire, am planning to gather an army to stop the second coming of an alien race called Agnaga, which destroyed this world 1000 years ago. I’m aware that the Empire is still in its baby steps and things are disorderly and chaotic, but we are running out of time. The second coming of the Agnaga is imminent. Therefore, I shall declare a state of national emergency and issue a wartime mobilization order. Young men of the empire, the empire wants you! It needs your help to protect this world from the evil alien race! I wish for all of you to volunteer to fight for this world’s survival and reconstruction!
P.S. I will attach the information about the rationale behind my orders. Do take note.
Kang Chul-In, the first Emperor of Valhalla
The whole Empire, no, the world, simmered with enthusiasm.
“Let’s enlist right away!”
“Those motherfuckers...!”
“I will kill them all!”
“So that’s what happened...!”
“Let’s all enlist!”
The hot-blooded youths rushed to the recruiting office.
“I devote myself to this world!”
“I can fight too!”
“I’m still lively, you know!”
The middle-aged and elderly men also volunteered to enlist.
“Women can fight too!”
“If we can’t join the battle, at least recruit us in the non-combat troops!”
Women were equally enthusiastic.
“Me too!”
“I want to enlist!”
“I will fight!”
Even the kids wished to participate in the war.
“Your Imperial Majesty, everyone wishes to join the army!”
Timothy, who was in charge of the conscription, reported to Kang Chul-In delightfully.
“As expected.”
Kang Chul-In knew that he had made the right move.
Who am I? Where are we from? What’s there in the other dimension?
The above questions were common questions that the people of Pangaea often wondered. Kang Chul-In took advantage of this. By revealing the tragedy that occurred 1000 years ago, he allowed the people of Pangaea to realize their identity and induced vengeance and animosity towards the Agnaga!
“The end is near.”
After ordering his men to install a huge Warp Gate (to allow for a huge army to warp) leading to Nosferatu, Kang Chul-In clenched his fists.
“Huehue... try reviving now, you bastard. Only my million-soldier army awaits you...”
Kang Chul-In planned to surround and annihilate Rindermergel and his army the moment they revived. It would be perfect. Even that Rindermergel wouldn’t have his full-strength right after his resurrection. Wouldn’t he be helplessly torn into pieces by Kang Chul-In?
“Your Imperial Majesty!” It was at that moment. “Your Imperial Majesty, tactician Kwak is desperately looking for you!” Alfred reported anxiously.
“Kwak Jung?”
“Yes, your imperial Majesty!”
“How is he?”
“Extremely bad! You have to find him!”
“That idiot!” Kang Chul-In immediately left his seat.
