I can see the Emperor's stats-Chapter 172
chuck horse
“Keuuugh!”
Julius pulled the sword from the woman's hand and brought it to her neck. It is a sign of intent to slit her throat right away if she does anything nonsense.
“… … .”
Without even looking at the woman with a desperate expression, Julius turned his head to Leonhard.
“Leon! Nice to meet you again, but I have a question for you... … .”
"yes?"
Leonhard hardened his face.
“Iza has just been accused of being a traitor here on the orders of His Majesty the Emperor.”
coo kung!
His heart sank at Julius' words.
“Is that true?”
"huh! And they called a separate faction to try to kill me.”
Cuckoo!
This time, beyond the sway, a pile of stones fell into his chest.
'You dare to ask me that... … .'
"haha! That's amazing.”
"yes?"
Julius smiled lightly and turned to Leonhard, who was trying to be evasive.
“By the way, is Lee trying to run away with you? Do you have something to say?”
"older brother! You are welcome!”
Frightened, Leonhard raised his hands and began to make excuses.
“It is true that Lee imprisoned me and said such outrageous thoughts. but!"
He revealed that he had no intention of hurting Julius and that he had rejected all of the women's proposals.
"Ohh! So you said you turned down all the offers?”
"That's right! How could I have thought of hurting you!”
“Then have you ever heard of the demonic cult or the cult?”
“Never heard of it.”
"okay?"
Julius was smiling on the outside, but on the inside he was a little taken aback.
'I guess it's real?'
[Leonhard von Sharnos]
Current Status: Chagrin
Julius expected that his brother and the Demonic Cult had something to do with it. However, looking at the current situation, it is said that Leonhard refused to harm him, whatever the intention.
'It's not because he's nice, it's probably because he doesn't trust Lee.'
In any case, it didn't seem like she had entered the imperial palace and planned to harm him.
“I’m sorry for doubting you once.”
Julius stopped questioning for now. According to his feelings so far, it seems to be related to something, but at least Leonhard himself didn't seem to know anything about the Demonic Cult or the religious order yet.
“Turn it off… … .”
He turned his gaze back to the statue of the woman who was groaning.
"As far as I know, you haven't mastered the magic arts, so what's your relationship with the magic cult?"
“… … .”
The woman kept her mouth shut. His life was a flashlight, but he doesn't seem to want to tell. But Julius knew why.
"It looks like they're afraid that the Demonic Cult will remove you, right?"
[Yeosang]
Current Status: Fear, Despair
Startle!
The female statue shuddered. It was the correct answer. Even if he answered straight away, the Demonic Cult would come to block his mouth.
Julius opened his mouth in a calm tone.
“Then what about these conditions? I will protect you. Then can you open your mouth?"
“… … !?”
The female statue looked at Julius with surprised eyes.
“As you know from watching me fight against the Demonic Cult just now, I can fully protect you! If I go back to the western continent in the future, I can promise a comfortable life there.”
Originally, it was not Julius' taste to negotiate with such a bastard, but his doubts about Leonhard overcame his reluctance. He turned and looked at his brother.
“There is only one answer! Why did you try to take my brother? Although he is an outstanding person, he does not seem to be of any help to the Demonic Cult.”
“Ouch… … .”
The woman seemed to be troubled. It is to weigh the Demonic Cult and Julius. Of course, the power of the Demonic Cult was terrifying, but the confidence of Julius, which he personally witnessed, was also terrifying.
'If this is it, it might be possible to block the main school's pursuit. Isn't that a person from the far west continent?'
Noticing that the woman's eyes were shaking, Julius persuaded him more gently.
“If you want, I'll even swear on the name of the imperial family! How is it?”
“Kuhm… … .”
At those words, the weight in the statue's head tilted towards Julius. Even if he was rotten, he was the one who brought the emperor. If the name of the imperial family was used, it was sure to be a trustworthy promise.
“I believe you will keep your promise.”
The female statue bowed her head to Julius with a servile smile.
Julius didn't like the look, but he nodded.
'Eh... He's a guy I really don't like.'
However, if even a little bit of information could be obtained, it was right to yield that much. Haven't you finally found a clue?
After moistening her lips with her tongue for a while, Yeosang finally opened her mouth. She glanced at Leonhard, whose eyes looked bewildered.
“The reason I wanted to take the 2nd Prince to the main school was because I was ordered by the head of the school.”
“The teacher?”
"That's right."
“What did you say was the reason?”
Yeo-sang finally tries to bring out the decisive information.
“That's right… Whoops!”
“… … !?”
The moment he tried to open his mouth, his face suddenly turned dark, and he grabbed his neck and rolled to the floor. Seeing his condition, Julius hurriedly checked his pulse.
"It's poison!"
However, Yeosang was a superhuman level master. If you are such an absolute master, you can discharge quite a few poisonous substances through the operation of a novel machine. But how quickly the poison spreads!
“Big… Rector!”
Yeosang made a resigned face as if she knew the reason. When he noticed that he was already poisoned, his intestines were half melted and no one could come and revive him.
"The reason is… Cool!”
He continues to cough and cough up blood.
"bowl!"
Finally he uttered the last word and died.
"bowl?"
“… … !?”
Hearing those words, Julius stared at Leonhard.
“… … .”
Still couldn't find anything suspicious. So the last clue disappeared in vain.
But it wasn't that nothing was gained. Julius carefully pondered the woman's last words.
'You mean a bowl?'
* * *
next day.
buzz buzz.
All the servants gathered in Daejeon were in a state of confusion. The contents of the emperor's announcement were too shocking.
[Yeosang, the head of the alumni group, tried to cause a war between the two continents by attracting a group of demonic cults to murder the emperor and also kill the crown prince dispatched from the western continent.
This terrifying plan was discovered and stopped in advance, and at the same time it was revealed that Yeosang was a Ganja dispatched from the Demonic Cult from the past.]
“The above is a conspiracy that has been revealed this time. Do you have any questions?”
“… … .”
All the servants became dumb after eating honey. There was something they saw and heard. The palace collapsed and the eunuchs, including Yeosang, died or were imprisoned. In this situation, who would raise an objection to the Emperor?
They just chatted quietly.
“Tsuttuk… They say power can’t last for ten years, and even the feeling of being able to drop a flying bird ends up like this.”
“But who in the world subdued him?”
"Shh! Don't you know that too?"
One of his servants pointed a finger at a man standing quietly in a corner of the palace.
“Who is that?”
“Isn’t that the one who is the crown prince of the western continent?”
“I heard from the general of Geumgun that I know, that the crown prince was the one who caught the current situation when the palace collapsed yesterday.”
"no way?"
"then!"
Only then did the servants nod their heads. They were convinced that the current emperor, Ju Yu-gyeom, had enlisted the forces of Julius to subdue Yeosang.
“To say the least, there were no forces within the imperial family that His Majesty could wield any more... … .”
“The author is quite good, but His Majesty the Emperor also made a surprisingly bold choice! Are you saying that you will keep the power of your subjects in check, even by bringing in people from other countries!”
“You weren’t such a gentle person!”
All the servants looked at Julius and the emperor alternately with fearful eyes.
Since then, the meeting has progressed smoothly. In addition to the reinstatement of the generals and servants who had been exiled ten years ago because of Yeosang's accusation, appropriate compensation was given to the bereaved families, and the eunuchs' institution, Alumni, was decided to be closed.
In fact, the role of the eunuchs was sufficient to run errands in the palace. The reason for the closure was that teaching excellent martial arts caused the present situation because of the position that it was no different from the emperor's limbs.
“Instead of shutting down the alumni, I will resurrect Hwangseongsa, which was destroyed ten years ago. The chief will be chosen among the people who will be reinstated for this incident.”
With this order, the figures of the former Jujakmumun, including Gungjeokyeong, were given a seat in the imperial family again.
But it wasn't this matter that mattered right away. Now that Yeosang is dead, it's time to correct the wrong things one by one.
“Finally, let’s bring out the biggest agenda of the day!”
Joo Yu-gyeom brought up the topic with a solemn tone like never before.
"It's a matter of a group called Murim's Demonic Cult!"
“… … !?”
All the servants held their breath and looked at the emperor's face. In fact, according to the full picture revealed today, the Demonic Cult has been controlling the imperial family for over ten years through Yeosang.
It is truly a crime of treason.
What decision will Yugyeom Joo, the emperor of the East Continent, make?
* * *
a few days after that
Another unexpected guest arrives at Jeong Do-Meng's headquarters.
“Vice Lord! It's a big deal.”
“What is it?”
Suddenly, a master ran into the meeting room and broke the news.
“What, His Majesty the Emperor personally sent an emissary?”
Namgung Ilcheon, who is still in charge of the chief lord, hurriedly got up and went to meet the lion.
“Huh?”
The procession sent by the imperial family was incomparably splendid compared to the messengers sent before to stop the troops of the western continent.
The gilded carriage was pulled by more than ten horses, and behind it stood a row of officials dressed in fancy clothes, as if they had sent an envoy to a foreign country.
“Meet the guests of the imperial family.”
Namgung Ilcheon lowered his head.
The official with a solemn expression, who seemed to be the representative of the Shinigami, opened his mouth.
“Are you the representative of Jeong Do-maeng?”
"That's right."
Shuk.
“His Majesty the Emperor himself gave you an order!”
The official took out the emperor's letter from his bosom and began reading it. A brief summary of it!
[The imperial family will provide ample support, so subdue the Demonic Cult!]
“Huh… A decisive battle with the Demonic Cult is what the dwarves also wish for. Haona... … .”
Namgung Ilcheon started asking questions.
"I'm not sure what support from the imperial family means."
The official's answer was simple.
"everything!"
"yes?"
“Literally everything. Originally, the imperial family doesn't meddle in Murim's affairs, but this time they decided to make an exception.”
He put the letter down and took another from his bosom.
“This is the [teaching message] that His Majesty the Emperor is giving you!”
“Gyoji!”
All of Jeong Do-maeng's characters were surprised. Gyoji was not just a simple letter, but an order written by the emperor when he personally bestowed an official post or fief.
That means soon!
flutter.
The official opened the school paper and began to read it.
[We organize Jeong Do-maeng as a temporary regular army in subjugation of the Demonic Cult, and we call this group 'Chuck Madan'! In addition, Jeong Do-maeng's representative will be appointed as a temporary official position, and an appropriate reward will be given according to his merits in the future.]
'Chuck horse' means to eradicate a horse.
thud!
All of Jeong Do-maeng's characters were shocked. The emperor personally handed down government posts to the people of Murim! What does this mean?
"haha… … .”
Having nothing to say, Namgung Ilchun burst into a dejected laugh before opening his mouth again.
“If you say steed, are you saying that the imperial family will send someone in charge?”
“Yes. A person selected by the imperial family will arrive to lead the people of Jeong Do-maeng separately.”
“Huh… … .”
Here, Namgung Ilcheon made a sad expression. Organizing the government army and receiving support from the imperial family was a good thing, but... … .
"one… Moorim's characters... … .”
The official spoke quickly.
“I know [non-aggression], too!”
Gwanmu inviolability means that Murim and Gwan have nothing to do with each other. This was an old rule, though not mandated by law. Therefore, if a person in an official position tries to give orders to Jeong Do-maeng, there will surely be noise.
But the official who delivered the emperor's letter in front of him tells me not to worry about it?
“What does that mean?”
Awesome!
As Namgung Ilchun had just asked for it, the door of the fancy carriage behind him opened. The official shrugged.
“Just in time, the lord of Chuck Madan is coming out.”
'Chuck Madanju?'
If so, the person who will be sent by the imperial family to lead Jeong Do-maeng will descend. Jeong Do-maeng's eyes all turned to the person coming out of the carriage.
Shuk.
“Long time no see everyone. Since it's His Majesty's order, should I introduce it again?"
“… … !?”
“A great deal?”
Julius, who got off the carriage, smiled and opened his mouth.
“I am Julius, who descended from the imperial family to the position of the ruler of the village. I wish you well in the future.”
