Chapter XXIII Declaration of 1007

Victory in the first battle. At this point, one of the major vassal states of the Holy See was destroyed. The Norman army was able to drive south to Swabia and look out over the Alps. and even as close as northern Italy.

"Oh, I won. "After receiving the news of the Vanguard's victory, Egil appeared calm. For the emperor, who thinks very highly of himself, now, victory in such a situation is a certainty, and there is nothing to rejoice about. As for the territory of South Germany, which was destined to be abandoned, Egil was equally uninterested. What he was now expending his energy on was another matter, how to fight back against the Holy See's dismissal of his teachings.

Although Egil, who is a false believer, doesn't care about teaching or not. And Hesse, Brandenburg, Austria in the German States, and even Burgundy, which I don't know if it is still a prince of the Holy Roman Empire, these countries have experienced the confrontation between the Holy Roman Emperor and the Pope. I know that in history, there are popes who were hacked to death by the HRE Emperor. So I don't really care about that. Hungary's economy was now heavily dependent on the Norman Empire, and Britain was Egil's staunchest ally. The monarchs of these six countries, like Egil, did not take the punishment of the pope's excommunication too severe.

However, the monarchs of several countries thought so. But it does not represent the nobility of these countries, and the commoners think the same way. In this obscurantist, superstitious Middle Ages, even in the Eastern Roman Empire, which boasted of its humanistic radiance, or the Norman Empire, which proclaimed itself a new order, faith was a very, very great force. In this case, the populace and the nobility will become uneasy. People who are ambitious, or who are dissatisfied with the current ruler, will also use this as an excuse to raise the banner of rebellion.

"Recently, I seem to be a little harsh on the nobles in my territory. So, could anyone not think of it, and have to live with their own lives at this juncture?" said what he thought was amusement, and handed a freshly written manuscript to Maria, who looked bored, who was standing aside, and ordered, "Take this document away and copy it again." It was then sent to the intelligence system, and they were asked to copy the document in several copies, and to each of the provinces and cities of the empire, and then to Burgundy, Hungary, Austria, Hesse, and Brandenburg. Remember?"

As Egil spoke, Maria repeated his command in a whisper. Hearing Egil ask her, she nodded and said yes. Egil asked her to repeat it again. Sure enough, it was word for word. Let Egil sigh again: Sure enough, everyone has their own specialties. Even if it's such a stupid little nun...... By the way, it's not too small now. As time passed, Maria was also nineteen years old, and the lolì attribute disappeared a lot. Although it is still as clumsy as ever......

This document is Egil's response to the Holy See's excommunication. The records of the scribe Talleyrand, as well as the biographers and historians around Egil, who called the manuscript the "Proclamation of 1007 AD". to show its importance and historicity.

And Egier, and the Norman officials who announced it, posted this document, as well as the other five allies of the Norman Empire (the Kingdom of Britain was full of Norman officials, and the policies, institutions, and laws were highly consistent with the Norman Empire. It can basically be regarded as a country's ...... Is there any reader who sees Britain and Norman as two countries?). When these people announced this document, they used the following name:

...,

The Most Holy, the strongest of Europa, Africa, Asia and even Atlantis, the Norman Empire Skadragrímsson (Egil is an honorific name, do you remember this setting), Rus, Poland, Livonia, Ukraine, Crimea, the Tsar of Moscow, the Caesar of the Holy Roman Empire. The reply of the Holy Lord Egilska, the Messiah of all mankind, to the Holy See.

The text reads as follows, and I, Egilskadra Grímsson declares:

I heard that the Holy See had acted perversely, and that in one day it had successively abolished the teachings of the kings of the seven kingdoms, including me. When I heard this, I didn't believe it at first, then I got angry, and then I sighed. This move by the Holy See is tantamount to destroying the Great Wall and cutting off its own arm. From the Fourth Crusade to the Greek invasion. In the midst of all the dangers in the Catholic world, if it were not for the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms and their warriors to protect the faith, the teachings of the Apostle Peter would have been interrupted for a long time. We, the defenders of Christ, are the best rocks of God's faith.

However, the Holy See is indifferent to our piety, and it is blind to our merits. The Holy Roman Emperor was elected as an elector. The winner is the one with the most votes. Today, Burgundy, Austria, Brandenburg, Hesse and I, a total of five electors, have elected me as emperor. I have become the rightful emperor of Rome. The Holy See should be congratulated and crowned.

I heard the bad news, I couldn't sleep at night, and I don't know what happened to the Holy See that caused the Holy See to do such a ridiculous act. Or is it a small hijacking, or is it being deceived into listening? I don't know. But I will surely lead the Normans, Rus', Germany, and even the nations to Rome again with those who follow justice and uphold righteousness. Find out the truth. He was officially crowned Roman Emperor in the Holy See.

Egil's share of life first gave himself a long list of titles that sounded like panic, and then he expressed his exploits, saying that he had won the support of most of the electors of the Holy Roman Empire. In the end, he said that the Pope either took the wrong medicine or couldn't help himself. In short, there is definitely something wrong with Ya Ting's announcement, and I don't listen to it. How could such a good boy be excommunicated? I am going to Rome and ask the Holy See for myself. With hundreds of thousands of troops from half of Europe......

That's pretty much it. At the same time that official documents were posted all over most of the cities of Europe. There was also some gossip that began to spread quickly. The real Pope is dead, and the current Pope is fake. Or maybe the Pope is not dead, but he is sick and dying, and now he is in power with a vicious archbishop. Or maybe the Pope's soul has been eaten by the devil, and now it's just a devil's manipulated shell and so ......on, and so on.
