Nanomachine Emperor

chapter 37



An immediate atmosphere.

The Chairman sank heavier than any other battleground.

The fact that Lord 1 was deceiving everyone also played a role, but his skill was so great that no one noticed it until now.

He is the first monarch who has already been evaluated as the strongest among the warriors of the north.

If he had been rejuvenated through ‘God’s blessing’, he had no idea how powerful that power would be.

Perhaps it can be compared to the demon king Gaf, who was said to have been unified in the north a thousand years ago.

‘At least three have to run to get it right. It’s much more advantageous if you go to the power battle.’

‘That ambition is dangerous. It’s better to remove it here…’

The heads of the monarchs turned quickly.

They are competitors against each other.

I can’t stand to see the other one step ahead.

As long as he revealed himself at the meeting of monarchs, the 1st monarch will start a conquest war immediately after returning from here.

He was not a person to stand still, even if he just said arrogant things like ‘I’ll give you half of the northern part’ in front of them.

What should I do?

What if that 1st lord wins the ‘Lion of the Holy Spirit’ and even takes the Holy Spirit?

“for a moment.”

The second monarch wearing a deer mask spoke.

“This is the meeting of monarchs. Unless you are qualified as a monarch, you have no right to speak.”

The 2nd Lord turned his head and looked at me.

Although they gathered because of me, strictly speaking, it is because I am not a monarch.

What should I do?

“for a moment.”

What if that 1st lord wins the ‘Lion of the Holy Spirit’ and even takes the Holy Spirit?

The second monarch wearing a deer mask spoke.

So, for me to express my opinions at this meeting of monarchs and reflect them to other monarchs was to destroy the order of the past.

‘You think Croft will lose.’

It was forced.

This is because it was not convened as a monarchy meeting in the first place.

The essence is that they gathered because they wanted something, and they were only there for each other’s needs, not to discuss something.

Even so, the reason for mentioning the ‘monarch’s meeting’ was simple.

Croft’s defeat.

He must have imagined the aftermath that would happen the moment Croft lost and I belonged to the first lord.

The second monarch continued to open his mouth.

“We have gathered to discuss the person who appears in the Holy Land and claims to be a ‘god’. Only the monarch can speak, and decisions that have not been voted upon are null and void.”

The three lords nodded.

“The 2nd Lord is right. Wasn’t that something we agreed on a long time ago? Not to interfere in the ‘Holy Land’ in the war, just as it was decided at the ‘Monarchs’ Meeting’.”

Aww.

This is the first time I’ve heard of it.

Was it a decision made at the ‘lord’s meeting’ that the Holy Land was empty?

It is said that the majority agreed to ban the dispatch of troops to the Holy Land.

‘I can feel the intention.’

Did Archduke Carlos use his hand?

What is certain is that Archduke Carlos was aware of their movements in advance.

There is a high probability that one of these lords has come into contact with him.

There was someone who tried to drag the war against the northern side with Archduke Carlos behind him.

First of all, it’s not Shan. Not even those who guarded the Holy Land.

‘There must have been a monarch who quietly sent troops to the Holy Land.’

For Archduke Carlos, the Holy Land is a treasure that must be taken.

So, anyone who had joined hands with the Grand Duke would have stood by the holy ground.

who is it who is the culprit

The 2nd Lord continued to speak.

“Even more so, those who claim to be ‘gods’ attended our meeting with their faces covered. Wouldn’t that mean that the guarantee of a saint or Jung would replace the qualifications of our monarch?”

“······ I guarantee it.”

It was then.

The 7th lord, Shan, spoke for the first time while wearing a black bear mask.

A great warrior and at the same time the guarantee of Lord Shan.

Neither the saintess nor Pagan, but the monarch guaranteed it, so it could not be ignored.

The faces of the other monarchs crumpled.

“Seven lords…”

“It must have been not long since he ascended to the position of monarch. You go too far.”

The one who became the last monarch.

But Shan pushed his conviction.

“I don’t know if he’s a god, but I think he’s at least qualified as a ‘lord’.”

“Seven Lords, are you crazy?”

At the second lord’s question, Shan shook his head.

“He beat me. Not moving a single step, just holding my hand behind my back.”

“…!”

Defeated the 7 Lords.

Even with your hands behind your back?

7th Lord Shan’s main specialty is the javelin.

His javelin accurately strikes objects that are several kilometers away.

Its destructive power is enough to split a mountain, and those who are hit from the front are shattered without a shape.

Shan, who dared to be the god of javelins, declared defeat.

Since it was an official declaration, the weight was by no means light.

‘How strong is it?’

‘Does he really have the strength to reach the edge of the Holy Land?’

The Holy Land gives strength.

Those with power go deeper and gain greater power.

However, most monarchs do not set foot in the Holy Land.

This is because if you gain strength in the Holy Land, your growth will stop.

In addition to shortening lifespan, Pagan’s suffering was all too famous.

A pagan is a living being who cannot die. The reason why they were worshiped like gods was because they were always doing ‘mortification’.

But… what if that self-proclaimed god arrived at the end of the Holy Land not just by coincidence, but with that much power?

‘Is it stronger than the 1st monarch?’

‘Is that possible?’

I was nervous inside.

It has the power to heal pagans and even possesses overwhelming power.

In addition, he was receiving overwhelming support from warriors and factions in the Holy Land.

worthy of all qualifications

There was no reason not to grant the title of monarch.

The Seven Lords raised their right hand and declared.

“That’s why I recommend him for the position of the 8 Lord.”

How to become a monarch must be recommended by other monarchs.

After receiving a majority vote at the Lords’ Council, he becomes a monarch.

It was the last resort to clean up the promiscuous north.

Without this system, numerous forces would have arisen and claim themselves as kings.

A kind of republican state.

Now, to become a monarch, four of the seven gathered here must agree.

Regardless of the strength of the force or the size of the force.

The 2nd monarch objected.

“Are you going to appoint an unknown person as the eighth monarch?”

“Your background may not be important. Just as you wore a deer mask and I also wore a black bear mask, our place and qualifications are not represented by ‘faces’. Besides.”

After a brief pause, Shan continued.

“The existence that healed Pagan and reached the end of the Holy Land. It’s good if it’s good for us, I don’t think it’s an existence that can do harm.”

Qualifications are sufficient.

And the seat of a monarch is proof in itself.

numerous peoples in the north.

To erase their boundaries, monarchs often wore masks and covered their faces.

That’s why the nickname attached is ‘beast lord’.

Each lord receives the protection of a specific beast.

The 2nd Lord was also called the Deer Lord, and the 7th Lord Shan was nicknamed the Black Bear Lord.

If the Eighth Lord appears, he will be called this.

‘The dragonlord.’

The one who appeared in the world with the guardian deity dragon at the end of the holy land.

There seemed to be no name other than the dragonlord.

‘That’s a good idea.’

Talo represents qualifications.

Not a bad idea.

‘Zero.’

[Yes, Master. We will proceed with the work of reducing the face of the ‘dragon’ entered in the database and coating it with a hologram.]

[The operation has been completed.]

The ‘dragon’ eaten by gluttony was entered into Zero’s database.

And based on the input data, Zero was able to launch a hologram.

This also seemed to be an ability that was born during a symbiotic relationship with Gluttony.

“······ Well?”

“The dragon’s face…!”

The monarchs looked at me and murmured.

The dragon’s face was shrunk and covered like a helmet.

The black dragon, the same form that fought Garp a thousand years ago.

It’s not magic. I could tell them all apart.

So it will really look like a god’s presence.

Shan raised his hand.

“Eighth, any monarch who approves of his sitting in the seat of ‘Dragonlord’ will raise his hand and vote.”

First one table.

“I can’t help it.”

1 The monarch raised his hand.

Only by putting me in the seat of the monarch was a duel possible on an equal footing.

It takes effect only when it is carried out in the presence of all.

Two marks here.

Two votes are still missing.

The second monarch crossed his arms.

The three monarchs also shook their heads.

It was a meeting to discuss what to do with the self-proclaimed ‘god’, but making him the monarch was absurd.

“It’s fun. I am in favor.”

The 4 monarchs agreed.

“… impossible.”

Five monarchs voted against.

Lastly, everyone’s eyes were focused on the Six Lords.

Six lords with tiger-like tattoos all over their bodies looked at me.

beastly eyes.

A gaze that could not tell whether it was goodwill or distrust.

After a while, he drew Sungho and put his palms together.

“You are the guardian deity of the Holy Land. Welcome bio.”

4 votes here.

It was the birth of the eighth lord, the dragonlord.

*

It never occurred to me that they would honor me as a god.

However, it succeeded in making me think of an equal relationship or more.

Since I was qualified once, it would be much easier to go beyond that.

8 lords? I can’t be content with just being in that position.

‘There is a spy among those who oppose it.’

2, 3, 5 monarchs.

One or more of those three joined hands with Archduke Carlos.

A new monarch has emerged from the Holy Land.

He will have no choice but to oppose it.

Now, when arguing for the prohibition of dispatching troops to the former Holy Land, it will be clear if we find out who argued and agreed and compare them.

There is only one thing left.

Only one match against the 1st monarch.

In the presence of all lords and soldiers, the fight was fought.

“Your complexion is dark, Croft. Aren’t you confident?”

Before the duel, I had no choice but to ask Croft.

Even after he recovered, his complexion continued to be dark.

He answered confidently in the meeting room, but the first monarch is the strongest warrior in the north anyway.

It is impossible to guess how strong he must have become after going through the mana shower.

It could be said that it was a case similar to Croft.

“No, just…”

Croft shook his head.

It wasn’t that his expression was darkened by worry about the duel.

“You seem to have concerns that you can’t talk about. tell me.”

“majesty. It’s nothing.”

“I was told to speak.”

Croft looked straight at me.

In the past, I wouldn’t have even expressed this kind of concern to me.

Croft and I now have a close relationship that is incomparable to before.

So, I also ordered him to speak up if he had any concerns with a straight face.

Soon after, Croft, as if organizing his thoughts, poured out his thoughts.

“How much do you know about ‘feat’?”

What a feat.

I paused for a moment at the completely unexpected question.

“I heard it’s like running errands for the gods. Why are you asking that?”

“Have you really met a dragon in the Holy Land?”

“yes. met.”

“Perhaps, is that dragon the subject of the ‘feat’?”

“······ hit.”

This was a truth I learned only when I reached the end of the Holy Land.

How did Croft know that?

“Now I understand why there are no 9th circle wizards in this world.”

The last 9th circle archmage existed a thousand years ago.

In the next thousand years, no human reached the ninth circle.

Croft murmured softly.

“Anyone who peeks into the secrets of the gods will be punished…”

his eyes.

I’m used to it somehow.

I was so used to it.

It was the look in his eyes when he made up his mind before leaving the palace in the past.

‘no way?’

It was not something that could be overlooked, seeing as the word God’s secret was even mentioned.

Suddenly, I remembered what Baal had said.

Any act of challenging God can be an excuse to be selected as a ‘feat’.

“Croft. Were you chosen for a feat?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

this.

damn it

did it anyway

It means that Croft, who went through a mana shower this time and saw the extreme, was selected as a feat.

‘So what about leaving the palace in the past?’

Croft was on the lookout.

He was a person who could easily cross the wall given time.

What if he left the palace in the past not because of me but because he was selected as a ‘feat’?

······ So, what if she fought the dragon quietly outside and died?

It may be a leap.

However, given Croft’s personality, it wasn’t an improbable story either.

Croft said.

“Don’t worry. I will not be leaving because of that feat.”

“Don’t worry. I don’t think you’ll ever lose to something like that.”

“I will finish it quickly and return, Your Highness.”

Croft lowered his head and moved to the duel.

1 The confident face of the monarch.

It seemed that he was already drawing a golden future.

fast.

‘Never let that happen.’

grinded teeth

It’s been a while.

This feeling.

Anger like this.

The cost of touching mine is great.

Whoever it is, even if it is God.

The price will definitely have to be paid.
