The turmoil of the dark moon decades ago caused a complete reshuffle of the internal forces of the Sattar Empire.

The first emperor, the Black King Inaga II, and the first knight of the empire, Hilliard, were assassinated by mysterious forces in the imperial court. Of course, the occult force is not mysterious, it just has to be mysterious.

In short, on that night, the factions loyal to the emperor fought to the death against the mysterious forces, and the brilliant essentia light reflected the entire surrounding area of the imperial capital as if it were day when the moon was obscured by clouds.

As a result, the first emperor died, and the crown prince and other royal descendants all died...... Buried with it was almost all the high-end combat power of the mysterious forces, as well as half of the imperial capital.

Today's Majesty, Axel the Protector of the Land, has discovered a funny and sad truth when he has defeated many of his other brothers and sisters and ascended to the throne in the imperial capital.

That's ...... An empire that should have been weakened, ruined, and completely in decline......

It's running better.

Be.

A group of ministers died, a group of nobles died, a group of high-level sublimators died, court officials who were too few to count in terms of a large team, the imperial humerus, and a large number of elite scholars, as well as God knows how to count, and it is estimated that it will be calculated by heaps.

There was a huge void in the core ruling class of the empire – the whole country should be completely inoperable.

But when Axel the Protector thought he was going to inherit a mess...... The new emperor was shocked to find that he was left not with a mess, but with an empty ruin.

Or the unbelievable smoothness of the decree, what he says is what the blank ruins are.

——The self-help organizations that appeared in the imperial capital, and the low-level officials who were at a loss and could only try their best to maintain stability, were waiting for him, the emperor, to settle in and give orders.

What great sublimator families, what court aristocratic groups, what imperial capital scholars, what big chambers of commerce and their backers, and God knows which local nobles support the spokesmen in the imperial capital - these people died completely, even if there were a few small fish and shrimp left, they were crushed by Axel himself.

The government affairs team he brought back from the eastern border, after he barely took office, was able to absorb a lot of talent from the people......

This is also thanks to the universal education of the first emperor.

And these people have become a new batch of aristocratic families, as well as officials and ministers.

Be. Oh, yes.

The empire lost control of the local nobility, and the two archdukes, who had been suppressed by Inaga II, regained their spirits, and many local nobles also faintly became the native emperors entrenched in their old nests.

In these places, government decrees are always obeyed.

But so what? The area under the direct jurisdiction of the Imperial Capital is so vast that it is still larger than many of the countries in the land of Terra.

The new emperor Axel used this ruin without any internal constraints, almost no intrigue, and no one to pull back and engage in internal friction in a short period of time......

Defended the borders of the empire.

Until a few decades later, the power of the imperial capital could still reach all places, and all nobles were convinced. At least superficially surrendered.

It sounds ridiculous, and it's funny to say, but the meaning behind this still makes the second prince shake his head slightly: [What kind of pressure grandpa was under back then, it is indeed unimaginable to us juniors, others may worship, may laugh, and may even secretly grit their teeth and hate it...... But when I really got close to that seat, I knew what the emperor was.

[But you're right, whether the Grant family and the Chehalorvo family are grandpa's secret hands or not, they are now our strength]

"Not yet. But the future will. ”

The old general turned his head sideways and looked at the moonlight outside the window, his expression was a little trance: "And there is no me." Your Highness. I'm still a knight of His Majesty, but I know ...... It's almost time, and I've got to pick one. ”

[I understand, I'm not a big brother and a big sister, I'm not so aggressive]

The second prince smiled: [My father has been living more and more secluded recently, and his grandfather has left too much inheritance, and he is a little obsessed with it too much - we always have to share our worries for him, don't we? ] 】

The Marquis of Batun did not reply, he was silent for a while, and then said, "The Ryan family has been removed. But the Lai'an Collar still exists, and the mountain people will make trouble, but Nanling can't be messy. ”

[Give them the sea of flowers, let the cliff clean up the mess.] He has eaten the benefits, and he has to give something in return, I want news of the Maze of Canaan Moore. Byson Dragon God and Karangu Dragon, I won't let go]

The second prince also followed the topic, and his heart light body shrank: [As for the rest of the Lai'an Domain, you can divide out a few knight domains, and half of them can be given to the knights with mountain blood, so that they can gag them]

[As for the rest, I think I can keep a copy for our little knight]

"He? It's too early. ”

Marquis Batun was a little surprised, his pupils flickered and focused, looking at Ian, who was in the armory, with a knight choosing the right armor and sword: "Your Highness, you said that you want him to be a patrol knight, this is not a profession that can stay in the territory all the time, even if he becomes a second level." ”

But no one said no, did they? 】

The second prince's voice revealed a hint of indifference: [This child's character, in my opinion, belongs to the kind of bird that doesn't want to go back when he goes out...... Port Harrison's nest is not strong enough, he has to build his own nest before he wants to return home]

[You don't want the geniuses of Nanling to run to other provinces, in that case, why not tie them up with a knight's collar? 】

"He will definitely be able to reach the second level before he is twenty years old, or even before he is eighteen years old."

The Marquis of Batun narrowed his eyes, and the old general also began to think about this possibility: "I just think I'm too young and have no qualifications...... That's so impressive. ”

[He will have qualifications]

And the little bird that was about to disappear said firmly: [Don't worry about this, general......]

[He will have]

At the same time, Ian didn't know that his future had already been planned......

Of course not.

With a watery glow in his eyes, the boy looked around the armory, as if he was just checking the quality of the armor, and from time to time he stroked it to determine its quality.

But in reality, he looked at the hall where the Marquis of Batun was.

"Fourth Energy Level...... Silver brilliance ......"

Ian muttered to himself in his heart, and his expression suddenly changed: "Originally, it was fluctuating and dead, I thought it was a high-level sublimation strange object carried by the Marquis of Batun, but I didn't expect it to be a heart light body similar to that of the Oak Master?" ”

"Which big guy is paying attention to me again? Ha, you don't have to guess, in addition to the influence of his royal blood on Isengard's side, where else did he come from, the fourth energy level that can be related to the Marquis of Batun? ”

- It's just that I don't know which prince or princess it is.

No. Ian thought for a moment, and he thought he already knew who the other person really was.

- The other party must be the same as Mrs. Ellen, and the other half of the family has a symbiotic parasitic bloodline.

The wife is a royal whose bloodline is 'Simulated Nightshade', and his daughter has also inherited the blood of Simulated Nightshade.

The second prince, Mikael Sattar.

Only when he also knows about the Echo conspiracy of the Protector Axel will he have the leisure to come over to pay attention to himself, and even borrow the mouth of the Marquis of Batun to mention himself!

- Among them, I guess there is also Master Gosai helping to thread the needle.

This kind of attention is actually quite dangerous for yourself...... But it also means huge gains.

The psionic glow in his eyes slowly dimmed, and Ian smiled.

He raised his hand and pointed to a pair of armor in front of him, "That's it." ”

"That's exactly what I wanted."
