0. prologue
“It looks like a ×.”
A thick curse came out of the mouth of the skinny man lying on the bed.
A white-haired old man was wiping his tears beside the old-fashioned bed, without fancy decorations, and a knight wearing stylish armor was making a pitiful expression.
However, despite their worries, the man lying on the bed instinctively knew that his life was short.
“life… … It’s like a beggar.”
At the man’s words, the people in the old-fashioned room bowed their heads in silence.
Everyone couldn’t bear to look at the last appearance of the man whose disease was evident.
The identity of this man who has lived his whole life suffering was the emperor of this empire.
「Kariel Frederick von Blaser, 128th Emperor of Estonia」
It was the name of this man and the name of the emperor who would be recorded as a dark soldier in the history of the empire.
“If I die… … Will you be remembered as a cancer soldier?”
The emperor looked at the chamberlain next to him and spoke.
The chamberlain couldn’t bear to look at him like that.
“That won’t happen.”
The knight with a hard expression said so.
A knight who has achieved great achievements that can be counted in the history of the empire.
The head of the imperial palace knights and grand master who appeared for the first time in several hundred years said so, but the emperor only smiled.
‘dog sound.’
Even now, when he went out, there were only people who cursed at him.
Perhaps, if the emperor died, this would be written on the tombstone.
worst emperor
died young at the age of 31
‘ah… … It is unfair.’
The Emperor looked out the window with a sad expression.
I felt like God was laughing at me beyond the deep blue sky.
Obviously, he worked hard, but why did this result come out?
If he dies like this, the cause of death will surely come out like this.
Cause of death: incurable disease 20%, complex poison 10%, overwork 70%
I really worked hard enough that overwork accounted for 70% of it.
An uneasy environment that has exposed me to the threat of poisoning since I was a child.
And even congenital diseases.
Even in such an unfortunate environment, I worked hard enough to bend my back.
Nonetheless, it looks like this.
“Cool!”
The emperor, who vomited black blood, recalled his past days feeling increasingly short of breath.
At the age of 21, the emperor died, and he hurriedly climbed to the throne and rolled hard for 10 years.
“Rebellions break out in various parts of the empire, and it takes two years to suppress them.”
「One year due to war with neighboring countries that were looking for an opportunity」
「2 years in the northern monster wave」
“Three years since the demon world gate was opened by the black magicians and the second human-horse war was fought.”
「The rest of the period was to prevent the troops of the East Continent from invading the Empire that had fallen into a series of wars.」
In spite of such a series of hardships, he managed to protect the empire to the end.
‘Still, he became the worst army in the empire.’
The emperor gnashed his teeth and was furious with his evaluation.
Despite working like a dog for 10 years, people did not like him.
After becoming emperor, there were only four large-scale wars, and he cut his throat countless times for two years to prevent the corruption of the surviving nobles.
In the eyes of the people of the empire, he was a tyrant who luckily became the emperor despite his lack of ability.
In fact, it was because his younger siblings were much more capable, and he was an incompetent person who became emperor from crown prince because he was the eldest son.
The 2nd Prince who is talented in magic.
The 3rd Prince who became one of the few masters on the continent.
The people of the empire say that even if any of his younger siblings had become emperor, the empire would not have become like this.
At one time, the continent’s strongest empire was blown away by a single dark army.
A once free empire has been transformed into a terrified nation by a single tyrant.
The history of the once brilliant empire ran toward the end as an incompetent being.
That’s why the people of the empire resented him.
Perhaps when he dies, the people of the empire will cheer.
“Ah! It’s unfair!”
Despite working like a dog, the empire has become weaker than before. But, is it fortunate that he barely survived and did not become the last emperor of the empire?
“I… … I just wanted to live! It’s not even my fault! Whoops… … Dogs, heh… … Ugh… … .”
“Your Majesty, spare your words.”
Feeling short of breath and gasping for breath, the councilor comforted him by telling him to quickly get some rest.
However, when I heard the voices of the people of the empire saying that he was a tyrant who would go down in the history of the empire, I felt like I was going crazy.
“Damn it! I said that I would not be the emperor, but I pushed it, what? tyrant? Cool! Cool!”
“Your Majesty, please fix it.”
Seeing himself coughing up blood in resentment, he hurriedly spoke out, but the emperor, who knew that the end was already approaching, only shouted with a look of resentment.
The emperor, who had been shouting in anger for a long time, asked the doctor with a tired expression.
“If I hadn’t become emperor, would I have lived a little longer?”
When I asked while looking at the meaning with an unfair expression, he turned his head with effort.
“It must have been. Even if you didn’t overwork… … .”
The Emperor of Potatoes, who closed his eyes, distorted his expression as the Eui-ui slurred his words.
“ah… … It sucks.”
At first, I had hope that if I became emperor, I would eat all kinds of returning medicines and get better, but that’s a piece of shit.
He was distracted by the rebellion of the princes, and it was about once a year that he went out of the palace due to numerous assassins and raids. After ascending to the throne, he lived a life inferior to that of a nobleman for several years as the national treasury was wasted in the midst of numerous poisoning threats.
After overcoming the crisis of the empire several times and now becoming more livable, his physical condition has changed irreversibly.
“Life is like X. Is not it?”
Looking at himself from the side, he turned to the standing knight. In fact, the reason he was able to survive until now, and the leader of the Imperial Palace Knights, the strongest man on the continent, was making a pitiful expression.
Although he was only over 30 this year, he possessed the most overwhelming force on the continent.
A genius worthy of leaving his name in history.
He looked at the emperor with a pitiful expression.
“I should have taken care of my convictions better… … . I apologize.”
“ha… … ha… … next… … Hwangwi is Hwang… … Abandoned to Tae-nyeo… … thing… … Come on.”
Since she could not even get married, she took her younger sister, who was more than ten years older, as the crown princess. No matter how talented she is, it would not be enough to devote her whole life to rebuilding this empire.
The good thing though is that this empire, which has been ruined to the point of being sorry to pass it on, can do anything because the bugs have been sorted out.
Feeling that the final moment had arrived, I looked out the window for the last time.
“Oh yeah… … × same… … life… … was.”
“You suffered. Please feel comfortable there… … .”
And as he listened to the last greetings of the Knights Commander, he completely let go of the string he was holding on to.
I thought I was going to go to rest after such a hard life.
However, the moment he lost consciousness, he was engulfed in light and moved to a pure white space.
“Here… … .”
-hi?
The boy, who looked like a bad boy, waved his hand warmly towards him.
Then the emperor asked him.
“Who are you?”
-me? god.
A god who points to himself and speaks.
The emperor raised his hands while grinding his teeth towards him, who smiled brightly.
“You bastard. Nice to meet you.”
The emperor, who had vowed to blow up the bamboo bread if they met, rushed in screaming.
Seeing such an emperor, God, who took the form of a boy, spoke with a vicious expression.
-You’re a rookie, isn’t it too much?
He raised the corners of his mouth while leisurely avoiding the emperor who was rushing at him.
It was so much fun to watch the emperor suffer all his life.
The appearance of the emperor, who cursed himself until the moment of his death, was enough to bring fun to the god who had lived for a long time.
That’s why he happily accepted the emperor’s rudeness, waving his fists at him.
“Ugh… … Ugh… … .”
The emperor, exhausted from the fluff, sat down on the floor.
The evil god slowly approached him.
– Aren’t you sad? I worked hard, but the evaluation seems to be the same.
A blood vessel sprouted from the emperor’s forehead at the god’s ridicule.
God secretly suggested to the emperor who was staring at him while grinding his teeth.
-Would you like to try it again? I’ll bring you back.
The emperor’s eyes, which were grinding their teeth at God’s subtle trick, changed to calm.
His eyes, which had been shaking with anger, changed deeply as if he had sunk into the deep sea, and he looked at God quietly.
“no.”
-… … huh?
God put on a bewildered expression at the unexpected reaction.
– Aren’t you sad?
“Don’t be sad.”
He worked hard like a dog and barely managed to increase the ranks of the empire, but the evaluation was the worst.
How could it be embarrassing?
– Then why do you refuse?
The emperor looked at God silently.
“If it were you, would you want to go through that pain again?”
At the emperor’s words, God shut his mouth.
Even from his own eyes, the emperor in front of him had lived through hardships.
Even the playful god had no choice but to keep his mouth shut because he knew better than anyone that he had to suffer until he died.
-Are you going to just die like this? Aren’t you sorry?
“uh. I have no regrets.”
God pondered for a moment at the emperor’s resolute words, and then revealed a secret.
-Four families on Earth. Aren’t you curious?
“… … What?”
The moment the emperor asked blankly, he saw his family on Earth in front of him.
A mother who suffered all her life raising her children alone after her father died.
My younger sister wanted to go to medical school, but was about to give it up because of her family’s financial situation.
My younger brother tried to get a job in a factory as soon as he turned 20 due to family circumstances.
They were living completely different lives than they knew.
“uh… … .”
The emperor looked at the unfamiliar family members with a puzzled expression.
Her own mother who wears luxury items all over her body.
My sister, who became a doctor, had a huge private hospital.
My younger brother became a big nuttuber driving a sports car.
Everyone is living a happy life.
– This is the wish you made right before you died. how is it?
It was very strange to see a family living happily ever after.
But just before he died, he nodded his head because it was the look he wanted so much.
God smiled as the emperor looked satisfied.
-The god of the earth, who lost the bet, granted you the wish as a reward.
“betting?”
-yes. The earth god said you couldn’t defend the empire. I walked the opposite way. After all, isn’t life just one room? I hit the jackpot by betting on an impossible reverse!
Seeing God smiling brightly as if the blow had been blown off properly, the emperor clenched his fists and walked swayingly.
-Are you mad? huh? sorry. Hehe! Still, you made my wish come true. calm down!
puck!
After giving God a shot at the god who spoke with a humorous smile, the emperor huffed and sat down in his seat.
The god who deliberately greeted him said to the emperor with a grin.
-Thanks to you, I gained a lot. So I’ll give you an extra reward.
“Extra reward?”
-yes. Instead, there are conditions.
“… … what?”
God smiled at the emperor’s question and said,
-You are returning.
At God’s words, the emperor raised his hand and raised his middle finger as if there was nothing to see.
– So good!
Seeing God pretending to be cute, he raised the middle finger of his other hand as well, and he grinned.
– Isn’t it really sad?
“What?”
-If only my body had been fine, there would have been more things I could have done.
At God’s words, the emperor distorted his expression.
As he said, if he had been in good shape, he would have taken control of the Empire much more easily than it is now, and the result might have changed a lot.
– A way to restore the body. I’ll let you know.
“I will not.”
-Added one more ability as a special bonus!
“go away!”
As the emperor waved his hands as if he was young, God spoke in a subtle tone.

Just looking at it, I felt as if I was making a bet on my return.
The emperor, who had no intention of playing with the gods, waved his hand resolutely.
Then God approached cautiously and whispered.
– Just come back. So, do you have special abilities added as a bonus?
“… … .”
– No conditions. You just need to go back. Aren’t you curious what you can do with a normal body?
“Well… … .”
– To be honest, I feel sorry for you too. Wouldn’t it be nice to go back and enjoy the YOLO life at this point?
At the coax of God, the emperor imagined himself enjoying the YOLO life for a very short time, and thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be okay?’
And at that moment, a deep smile spread across Shin’s mouth and he snapped his fingers.
-Reception complete!
“What?”
The moment the emperor looked at him in confusion at Shin’s words, a black hole formed behind him and began to suck him in.
– You’ve worked hard, so live well this time. I don’t know if it will.
The god giggled, and the emperor’s consciousness was cut off at the end.
