Chapter 157 – Purpose of the Executive Committee
After the fall of the Pandeum Empire, nicknamed the Sorcerer Empire, several nations were created on this land.
As many people called themselves kings or emperors and stood up to create their own countries, historians called that time the ‘period of struggle’.
At this time of struggle, so many countries were established and disappeared.
Most countries failed to sustain themselves for 5 years and repeatedly went from being established to being ruined. Finally, a country with a proper foundation was born, and that was the Kingdom of Bregern and the Kingdom of El Pario.
Each nation established by the two heroes who defeated the Apostle of the Evil God, with the help of the other heroes who helped defeat the Apostle of the Evil God, quickly subdued the surrounding kingdoms under their feet.
Through this, the kingdoms of Bregern and Elpario grew rapidly and came to dominate huge territories. Soon, the kings of each kingdom began to call themselves emperors and their own countries as empires.
In this way, the Bregern Empire and the El Pario Empire were born.
These two countries bordered each other and had the Great Forest’s Alberium kingdom as a buffer zone.
And below the Great Grove, there were minor kingdoms living, and they kept the peace by sending only formal tribute to the two empires.
Now, the two empires were maintaining friendly relations with each other by sending gifts in return that were several times larger than the tributes from each kingdom.
People’s greed is said to be endless, but the Bregern Empire and the El Pario Empire did not start a war of conquest for territorial expansion.
Since the founding emperors of each empire came from a kingdom that suffered from the Pandeum Empire, they were well aware of how much suffering the people suffered from the damage caused by meaningless wars of conquest.
The reason why their territory expanded in the first place was because other kingdoms voluntarily came to serve them.
Leaders of other countries thought so.
‘How long can we survive if our country fights against a nation founded by heroes who defeated the apostles of evil spirits?’
The strength of the Apostle of the Evil God who destroyed the Pandeum Empire, what should I compare it to to fully reveal its strength?
And can you fight and defeat the two kingdoms built by the great heroes who defeated the Apostle of the Evil God that destroyed the Pandeum Empire?
The surrounding kingdoms who had these two thoughts came to the following conclusion.
‘If an empire is established on this land, there is a high possibility that the kingdom they built will become an empire. If so, wouldn’t it be better for us to bow our heads to them and become social leaders who, even if we are not founding contributors, can be somewhat less harmed in the world order they will lead in the future?’
From noble mtl dot com.
The leaders of the surrounding kingdoms moved quickly. If you are going to be conquered by them anyway, it would be better for you to be recognized as one with them without shedding blood.
In this way, the leaders of the neighboring kingdoms went to the kingdoms of Bregern and Elphario to secure their interests, and instead handed over the territory of the kingdoms they controlled to them.
This action was repeated, and the territories of today’s El Pario Empire and Bregern Empire were created.
As the territory was literally created without shedding blood, they were able to quickly become one because they did not wage a war to kill each other.
However, no matter how good a method is, there will always be people who are not satisfied with that method.
It was around the time when the Pandeum Empire ruled the northern part of the continent and had the entire world under its control.
The descendants of the people who lived in the northern part of the continent and were expelled from the continent due to the expansion policy of the Pandeum Empire became the foundation of today’s Bregern Empire, El Pario Empire, and several kingdoms under it.
However, there were aborigines who were living on this land even before they came.
Of course, those who were pushed out by the Pandeum Empire’s expansion policy took away the land they were living on and enslaved them.
After a certain amount of time, the world began to change rapidly as the Pandeum Empire collapsed and a period of struggle arrived.
Some of the natives who lived in the south-central region melted into their society and life, and also united as one in the face of a common enemy, the Pandeum Empire.
However, after the fall of the Pandeum Empire, people who were dissatisfied with the current system began to appear among the descendants of the natives little by little.
‘Do we always have to suffer? Why must we always be ruled by others?’
‘Shouldn’t we also have our own country now?’
Of course, not many people had this idea.
So, they operated the organization in the form of a secret society.
Due to the fact that there are few people who share the same thoughts, they do not accept outsiders.
Because only those who have been observed for a long time and have been verified were accepted, new people could easily adapt to the internal culture of the organization.
It was because they were an organization that moved only to achieve one goal.
‘Our country was built with our own hands on the land of our ancestors, not a nation built by others.’
What they wanted was to establish their own country with their own hands on the land where their ancestors lived.
However, those who ruled the land where our ancestors lived were too strong.
The two empires built by the heroes who fought against the Apostle of the Evil God who destroyed the Pandeum Empire and won victory were too powerful enemies.
To collide head-on with powerful people who voluntarily visit neighboring kingdoms and want to be subjugated is tantamount to committing suicide.
Thus, this secret society, made entirely of native descendants, permeated both empires.
One day, they vowed to create their own country on the land of their ancestors again…….
No matter how infinitely long it may take.

Now that the head of Bless’ planning department has been arrested by the task force, the man who was a member of the executive committee was also walking somewhere accompanied by the task force.
The place where the task force member and the executive committee member accompanied was a small building guarded by the task force member.
This building was originally used as a place to welcome guests from outside, but now it is being used as an investigation room to investigate the current accident as the situation is.
It was an inspector from the Imperial Inspection Department who greeted the executive committee member who entered the investigation room.
“I am an inspector from the imperial family. Do you know what I am here for?”
The inspectorate was a bit arrogant towards the executive, but considering the status of the imperial inspectorate, it was only natural.
No one could treat an inspector recklessly unless he was a direct superior of the inspectorate, such as the emperor or prime minister, or a member of the same inspectorate.
This was due to the characteristics of the Inspection Department, which was literally a group that received orders from the emperor to inspect various institutions within the empire and demanded improvement of the problems when they occurred.
If the problems pointed out by the inspection department are not improved, the relevant institution will be subject to intensive inspection.
If you receive intensive supervision from the inspection department, the agency is virtually dismantled.
Of course, this was a burden on the Inspection Department, but even because of the possibility that intensive surveillance would be conducted, all agencies within the El Pario Empire never passed over the Inspection Department’s point lightly.
The fact that the inspection committee came to Noble Academy this time was also related to this.
According to the data submitted by the executive committee member, the accident that was passed over due to insufficient evidence last year occurred under the leadership of the current planning department head, and the person who handled the accident was the current executive committee member.
Therefore, the Inspection Department wanted to obtain more detailed information from the Executive Committee by dispatching an Inspection Commissioner.
So this time, a member of the inspection committee was dispatched to the Noble Academy.
“I know that. Aren’t you here to investigate additional information about last year’s accident and this year’s accident?”
“It’s good that you’re smart, you know what to say.”
At the words of the executive member, the inspector showed a relieved expression as if he had relieved himself of the hard work he had to do.
“Well, even if you say that, in reality it is only a formal investigation. Anyway, with the data you submitted, the MacGregor family’s offspring is already equivalent to the death penalty.”
“Was the sentence decided so quickly? Aren’t you going to trial?”
“What is the trial? The investigation into this matter was handed down by His Majesty the Emperor himself. If the person who was the head of the planning department had committed a crime once, he would have been excommunicated from his family and banished, but after it was revealed that he was the mastermind behind last year’s incident, the death penalty was decided by Hwang Myeong. Well, it’s not actually carrying out executions.”
The inspector general smiled bitterly as he replied, “Because it was socially executed, it will be worse than being alive.”
“Well, I looked over the data you submitted. Is there anything else you would like to add?”
“No. Knowing the amazing feat of the Inspection Department, what more could there be to hide?”
“Yes. We can find anything if we step out. I get it anyway It’s just a formal investigation, so you can stop and see.”
The inspector motioned and demanded that the executive be dismissed.
As a result, task force members approached the commissioner and removed him from the interrogation room.
A smile hung on the lips of the executive committee member as he left the interrogation room and returned to the dormitory.
‘I’m glad. Because it just goes I almost got the most important data out.’
There was a reason why the executive committee said this.
Because the material he thought of was… It was because it was a collection of information containing the vulnerabilities of the El Pario Empire to be used to destroy the El Pario Empire in the future.
Fortunately, the inspectorate had meticulously prepared the materials to make me think that additional investigation was unnecessary.
So he ended the investigation with just a formal face-to-face question without further investigation.
The executive committee members returned to the dormitory and closed the door.
“You’re late.”
And a black hooded being was sitting on the executive committee member’s bed.
