0.01 Second Sword Master Episode 157
“Hurry up everyone!”
“One o’clock is urgent!”
“His Majesty is waiting for us!!”
As the portal installed in the Omer Kingdom was activated, countless articles poured out, and people passing by the streets could not help but be surprised.
“What? The Imperial Knights?”
“Yes! Suddenly, a portal opened!”
Elberstain, who was leisurely looking at state affairs, was surprised by the report that the Berak Empire Knights were pouring out of the portal and went to the scene himself.
The commander of the Air Division was there.
“Aaron. What the hell is this?”
“Elberstein. The emperor is gone.”
“What, what?!”
Aaron told Elberstein in detail what had happened.
Then he, too, stepped forward with resentment.
“What!? The temple is Your Majesty? If that’s the case, I’ll be there too! How dare you, our Emperor, in that wicked temple…!”
“If you join us, it will be of utmost strength. Elberstein.”
“Okay. If His Majesty disappears, how can the Berak Empire survive? I will follow you too! Just leave it to me!”
Isn’t it Elberstein who is more passionate about Aslan’s work than anyone else?
If there is a worship service hosted by Aaron, it is Elberstein who participates without fail, even if it is a long distance.
As Aslan’s loyalist, he was more angry than anyone else at this incident.
“Prime Minister. Everything is ready.”
Horace, who became prime minister when Aslan ascended the throne, nodded his head.
“Then let’s go.”
“Yes!”
A whopping 100,000 knights marched toward the temple near the Omer Kingdom.
Because Aslan’s safety was at stake, Aaron ran at a very high speed, and the wizards increased his speed by continuously casting speed magic.
As a result of running without rest for a day,
“It is a temple!!”
“We have arrived at the temple!”
They finally reached the temple.
“The proud Knights of the Berak Empire! Give your life for the Emperor!”
“Waaa-!!”
“Everyone advance!!”
As the knights advanced toward the temple, the paladins defending the area were surprised by their mighty army and fled.
“Retreat, retreat!”
“The knights of the Berak Empire! Everyone run away!”
The knights of the Berak Empire had already spread their reputation across the continent for their state-of-the-art weapons and bravery.
Of course, the paladins in the temple must also know their fears.
They were terrified when they saw the knights coming like a flood.
“Corsair!!”
Aaron and his knights, who easily broke the defenses, had nothing to do with it.
He intended to step inside the temple and trample on anyone who blocked his way.
However,
“Everyone stop!”
Their advance stopped at the sound of clear voices echoing through the space.
“This is a sacred place to pray to God. To think that knights with swords would invade such a place! What the hell is this? Did you forget that the temple is a place where fighting is forbidden?”
The protagonist of this voice was none other than the Pope.
Then Horace shouted as if he was screaming.
“I know that you have taken our Emperor, Pope Rehenna! What have you done to him? If you touch His Majesty even the slightest bit, the Berak Empire will surely turn the temple into ashes!!”
The pope couldn’t help but be surprised.
He dared to say that he would burn the temple to ashes.
But on the other hand, wouldn’t that mean that they were for Aslan?
The humans of this continent fear the authority of the temple and the name Rahal.
That’s why, no matter how powerful they were, they bowed their heads in front of the temple.
But they didn’t see that fear.
This must also be because of Aslan.
“After. It’s the same with you and your masters.”
“Answer me straight! Where is our emperor now?!”
“Follow me. The one you are looking for is now in the temple.”
At the Pope’s calm voice, Horace also accepted it.
“Good. But if you’re going to do nonsense, you’d better stop thinking about it.”
So the knights stopped rushing for a while and followed the pope into the temple.
“…”
However, as I looked around, something seemed strange.
What should I say?
It feels like they broke into a large worship service held for God.
“There is something you are misunderstanding. Now he is not threatened by anyone.”
“Of course! I wonder if our Majesty threatens you. He’s threatened by someone, and he’s not really the one.”
“What······. I bet it is. Anyway, here’s why all the priests are gathered and all the paladins and followers are gathered. It is to worship the incarnation of Rahal.”
“······What do you mean by that? The incarnation of Rahal.”
“Let me see you in person.”
Eventually, the door of the temple, which had been firmly closed, opened, and Aslan was sitting on the golden throne at the far end.
“Lungs, Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty the Emperor!”
Horace and the knights were embarrassed to see him like that.
What the hell is this all about?
Just then the pope shouted from the side.
“All worship and bow your heads. This is Aslan, the incarnation of Rahal!”
* * *
How did this happen
“Hey Rahal~!”
“Meet Rahal!”
“Meet the Glorious Almighty!!”
“Hey Rahal!”
Everyone was shouting Rahal’s name at me.
They all believe that I am Rahal’s incarnation.
That would be the case, of course, because it was the Celestial Dragon that I nailed as Rahal’s incarnation.
In addition, the celestial dragon could never be resurrected by darkness, and only pure light like Rahal could bring it to life.
That is why even the priests of the temple who persecuted and neglected me fell on their knees and bowed their heads to me.
“Lung, Your Majesty… To say that His Majesty is the incarnation of Rahal…”
“Also······. His disposition for the people had a reason.”
“Strength and charisma beyond common sense. Indeed, His Majesty was not a human, but a god!”
Horeth and his knights, who rushed to rescue me, were also staring at me with shining eyes.
They also seem to think that I must be Rahal’s incarnation.
‘I can’t say no now.’
If I was going to say no, I should have done it a long time ago.
However, when I spoke to Michael and the angels earlier, I opened my mouth as if I were really Rahal incarnate, so I ended up becoming a wolf.
‘I don’t know, now.’
Because of this bravado, I have now become Rahal, the master of light who created this continent and created all living things.
‘By the way······.’
The last words of the celestial dragon leaving are memorable.
‘The dragon of chaos has awakened, Rahal. And Remegeton will surely be resurrected.’
Waking up the Dragon of Chaos also hurts my head, but even Remegeton is resurrected.
It was truly super-fantastic.
‘The dragon of chaos can turn this world into a sea of fire just by flapping its wings. Moreover, if Remegeton is resurrected, the continent will be destroyed.’
The celestial dragon who said so gave me a soft smile.
‘But with you, this continent will be safe as always. A great war will break out, but the tribes gathered around you will prevent the destruction of the continent. It’s such a relief that you’re back, Rahal.’
After saying that, the Celestial Dragon returned to its tomb.
‘But the heavenly dragon could be wrong, right? Can I trust you?’
Even if the dragon of chaos is like that, Remegeton’s resurrection is still unsure.
Since this game is virtually over the moment Remegeton wakes up, the development team systematically prevented Remegeton from reviving as much as possible.
Going that far means that the player has been playing quite a bit.
And didn’t the heavenly dragon mistake me for Rahal?
What kind of future are you looking at with those black eyes?
“Your majesty.”
Then Rylakan came up to me and called me.
“…”
Judging by the look in his eyes, does Rylakan not believe that I am Rahal’s incarnation?
But. Any superhuman on the level of Ryla Khan could tell whether I was a god or not…
“There must have been a reason why a small person could not surpass His Majesty. How can humans surpass God? Then, will the small man become the strongest on the continent again?”
What man
“Lylakan.”
I sighed at Rylakan, whose eyes twinkled with anticipation.
“If you’re going to talk nonsense, go in.”
“Ah, yes.”
How can I do this?
If Rylakan is like that, the others really believe in me as a god.
Shouldn’t it be fixed before things get bigger?
“Listen, everyone.”
Since everyone was gathered here by chance, I was thinking of putting things in order.
Because if you really think of me as Rahal, things get out of hand.
“…”
Everyone closed their mouths at my words, opened their ears and bowed their heads.
“Jim is not Rahal.”
From noble mtl dot com
“…?”
“I am a human being just like you. Just like when he was the Lieutenant General of the Kingdom of Eli, like he became the king there, and like the emperor now. Jim will always remain Aslan.”
I made it clear that I am not a god, just a seal just like you.
“So stop calling me a god. Also, don’t call me Rahal. Jim is the emperor of the Berak Empire, and he is just a man named Aslan.”
Then, a strange air current flowed to the left and right.
I continued before the silence got any longer.
“As always, Jim will do everything in his power for the peace of this continent and the safety of all races. Because I know that is my destiny and mission. So don’t worship me as a god. Jim is a human, not a god. A human who wants to protect my people just like you.”
I should have done something like this
Satisfied, I sat back down.
However, their reaction was unusual.
“As expected, did he abandon his great position as a god and come as a human?”
“Ah. How can you be so infinitely humble?”
“Does that mean you want to be with us as a human being and not as a god?”
The priests of the temple, including Hores, each began to shed their tears.
It was to the extent that Aaron and the knights could be seen holding back their tears.
What. What are the sudden reactions?
“Your Majesty’s words, I will engrave them in my bones!”
“Now, His Majesty’s heart can be understood. He always had that kind of heart. The little ones didn’t know His Majesty’s heart until now.”
“Your Majesty has always been looking at small people with a human heart…”
“Surely His Majesty is a great person!”
Soon they were on the floor, shouting my name louder than before.
I looked down blankly at them.
“…”
Now it seemed to me that the misunderstanding that I was Rahal had come to an irreversible point.
