I can see the Emperor's stats-Chapter 81
united front
Demonic cult, what kind of nonsense is this? Of course, Julius had never heard such a thing even in his previous life.
'Read Help'
[Demonicism-This information cannot be viewed due to lack of achievements.]
“… … !?”
I looked through the help and didn't find anything helpful. But looking at their expressions, it must be something very important.
Julius decided to try bluffing here. If the opponent is a religious group, isn't it only the Heimdall Church that attacked this time?
“I think I heard at first glance that it was a cult in the east, but I don’t know much more than that. Could it have anything to do with this raid?”
“… … .”
Jegal Hwa-young, who had been silent for a moment, begged more earnestly.
“It is one of the most important things for my family. I would love to hear information about them. Please look at your credit so far.”
'No, so I don't know those guys... … .'
Inside, Julius was quite perplexed. However, looking at this reaction, it seems certain that he has something to do with the guys who have been raiding this time.
'I'll have to dig up some more information here.'
He shook his head as if he couldn't help it.
“As I have said before, I cannot tell you everything. Aren’t you like that too?”
“Then how about making a deal?”
“Do you think this is something that will be traded under certain conditions?”
Jegal Hwa-young was also slightly demoralized by Julius’ resolute bravado.
“Certainly… … .”
'Look at this?'
Julius was slightly surprised. I've only tried it a few times, but looking at their expressions, it seemed like a problem that wasn't a joke. But when they gave up here, he was a bit troubled too.
“Then, as you said, I will look at your credit history and give you some information.”
“I apologize.”
Julius put on a serious expression. It's been like this before, but there's no use in lying in front of people who are so smart and good at negotiating.
“The first is that they and I have been fighting for quite some time.”
This is an unmistakable truth. It's because he didn't bump into it a few times in this life, but he was tired of assassination threats in his previous life.
“Secondly, they are Ki. It means that on this continent, they use a different energy that is a little different from the power called the Force.”
“You mean Magi.”
It seemed that the dark power or whatever it was was called Magi in the Eastern Continent.
“Finally, their forces are spread throughout this continent, and honestly, even I, the prince, cannot dare to deal with them alone.”
Everything Julius said was what he himself experienced. Truly, sincerity is dripping from the facial expression and appearance.
“Thank you for telling me.”
Zhuge Hwa-yeong was convinced that Julius was telling the truth. First of all, isn't the most convincing evidence that the guys who exuded demonic energy rushed at the first prince in droves right in front of him?
She opened her mouth while looking at Julius with a more serious expression.
"I'm guessing you've noticed, but they've already been fighting for over a hundred years with this generation and the four great warriors."
Julius felt that one of the secrets of his previous life had been unlocked here.
'I guess the reason why you worked so hard to help me in my previous life, even though I didn't have much power, was because I had a relationship with the bastards of that church?'
He smiled condescendingly here. The attack by the bastards of that church had unexpected results. Coincidentally, the reason he came to the Blue Dragon Merchant was also related to the Order.
“Actually, today I also came to visit you for that matter.”
The reason why Julius visited the Blue Dragon Merchant today was to ask for their active cooperation. He already asked to investigate Zamir, but that wasn't enough.
"You know that I'm going down to the southern desert soon."
Zhuge Hwa-young understood right away. She knows that the Desert Kingdom is suspicious because she has also collected her information.
“So you are saying that we should establish a united front against the Demonic Cult.”
"yes! Apparently one of their branches is there. What happened to the request I investigated earlier?”
“I will tell you about the investigation into the prince named Zamir.”
Zhuge Geon started reporting on her behalf.
“First of all, he is a very famous person in the Parthian kingdom.”
“Didn’t I say 7 princes?”
“According to what I have learned, his influence is said to be comparable to that of the 2nd Prince Karim, who is said to be the most powerful heir to the throne.”
'As you might have guessed, he must have had a bad back.'
Why did such a royal family come all the way to the north to see him?
Well, up to this point, Julius had also guessed. But then the words continued.
“There was nothing particularly suspicious about it, but he says he enjoys going out alone without an attendant. He seems to have gotten used to his eccentricity, and no one really stops him.”
“Have you investigated his activities?”
“That is the real problem.”
Zhuge Liang put on a slightly serious expression. This was because it was a matter of hurting Hyeonwoljeon's pride.
“Even though we dispatched a high-class informant, there are times when we lose track of him.”
“Then I guess I have no choice but to go down and investigate.”
Julius felt the need to dig deeper into that Zamir. But for that to happen, their cooperation was essential.
“Come to think of it, I haven’t heard an answer yet. Are you willing to form a full-fledged alliance with me? We are not trading partners like before. If you have the same enemy, do you think that reason is enough?”
Zhuge Hwa-yeong seemed to hesitate for a moment here. In fact, it was difficult for her to give a definitive answer given her status.
However, if it was a matter related to the Demonic Cult, Sega would absolutely not oppose it. She chose to trust her own judgment.
"It's a matter related to Sega's safety, so of course I can't refuse. We will form an alliance with His Highness the Prince.”
“Good idea.”
“… … !?”
Julius grinned and held out his hand. He did it without much thought, but holding a child's hand in the East Continent was treated as disrespectful enough to be incomparable to that in the Western Continent.
But could he dare refuse the prince's outstretched hand? She held her hand with the utmost composure.
"i look forward to."
'hmm? Did I do anything rude?'
Julius made a puzzled expression when he saw the slight change in her complexion.
“What, did you have any other problems?”
"no. Then, let’s discuss the detailed plan from now on.”
She quickly changed the subject.

“Can’t something like that happen in life?”
The words were comforting, but Gideon, who was well aware of the character of the guy who said these words, managed to put up with the blood rushing to his head.
In fact, this guy was smiling in front of himself right now. However, he couldn't be angry because he failed properly.
'The Priests didn't suffer much damage, but they lost quite a bit of Paladins... If I return, it will be difficult to avoid punishment.'
It was fortunate that not all was lost. If so, he would probably be better off biting his tongue and dying right here.
Jamir, a smiling man, also felt like he had the whole world inside.
'Look, I said it wouldn't be easy.'
It was by no means a wrong choice for him to call his teacher. The Gideon he saw was by no means a fool. But his confidence was too strong.
It was Zamir's rule of thumb that he always had to be prepared for any eventuality. That's why he was able to rise to the rank of a fairly promising high priest in the church at a young age.
The reason why he came to meet Gideon, who had failed and was about to withdraw, was related to that iron rule.
"joy! Do you think I will believe your proposal?”
“I swear by Heimdall's name! Can't you believe this?"
“… … !?”
Only then did Gideon seem slightly interested. The promise sworn by the church in the name of their chieftain was absolute.
“In addition, if this task succeeds, I will ask Master to share the achievements and ask for immunity.”
“You mean the Archbishop himself?”
Gideon was dubious, but he couldn't help but be tempted. Zamir's special favor with the archbishops was well known among high priests of similar ranks.
"If you say that, I'll try to listen to the conditions."
'I'm almost done with this.'
Zamir laughed to himself and began to explain what he was going to do.

The Emperor and Julius stood in front of a large door.
This door, said to have been made for the first time when the Imperial Palace was being built, was not only several meters thick, but also difficult to scratch, no matter what kind of material it was made of.
In fact, it seems that some of the previous emperors tried to destroy the gate by force by ordering a knight who had risen to the level of a superman, but mysteriously, even the superman's attack that demolished the castle wall in one blow only left a few scratches on the wall.
Mithril, which is generally considered to be the strongest metal, and even the 10,000 years of the East didn't have this much strength, so it couldn't help but be a mystery.
“Can this really be enough? After I became emperor, I went in several times, but there was no special treasure.”
“It's a personal interest. But isn't it true that it's a difficult request?"
The emperor nodded with a disapproving expression. The only way to open this door is for the emperor of the empire who rightfully inherited the throne to shed his own blood directly into the crest engraved on his authentication device.
It was not an ordinary condition that the emperor should shed blood. And what if the emperor grew old like he is now?
Julius was actually an emperor in his previous life, so he secretly tested it to see if it would be his own blood, but unfortunately the door did not open.
The place where this strange door is blocking is the Imperial Palace!
It was said to be a report, but it was not a treasure trove of treasures piled up like a mountain.
It wasn't particularly secret what was inside. The previous emperors revealed that there were only the remains of Sharnos the Great and some players.
It was also said that there was no such thing as an unparalleled weapon or an unmanned secret weapon capable of powering the sky.
However, since the door blocking it was so unique, there were many rumors about it, but from the emperor's point of view, all of them were just rumors.
“I say it again, you will regret it.”
“I am very sorry to Obama.”
“I don’t want to have to bleed on purpose at this age… … .”
The emperor grumbled, but rolled up his sleeves and approached the authentication device on the wall. The authentication device was a delicately carved small sword.
Fu-wook
The emperor slightly thrusts his hand into the tip of the sword.
I wanted the blood from his hand to flow down the blade, but to my surprise, not a single drop of blood dripped and it began to be absorbed into the entire blade.
Finally, when the entire blade turned red, the emperor let go.
A lot of blood had to be shed to open the door, so the aged emperor looked slightly tired and finished a simple hemostasis through the therapist on standby.
“Now, in a little while, the door will open.”
Drooling!
After a while, the door shook with a heavy sound, and then a small passageway large enough for one person to pass through appeared.
“As I said, the time limit is two hours. After more than that, the door closes automatically. If you don't want this old Abbey to die of blood loss, let her look around and come out.”
To that blunt voice, Julius replied with a wry smile.
"All right."
'I don't know what the results will be, but I'll have to collect them quickly and come out.'
Julius had entered this treasury in his previous life, and as the emperor had said, there were no special treasures.
'But what if I became a player now?'
