Became the Crazy Overpowered Emperor 107

Power overflows.

If the first stage of the Imperial Soul was about drawing power from the soul world of the Imperial Soul, the second stage felt like being completely in sync with the power of that soul world.

As if I had fallen into a sea of souls.

Their long-accumulated wishes were becoming my strength.

“Emperor! I will kill you here and avenge the grievances of our fallen brethren!”

Hatsgar’s fierce attack came at me.

Just like the Grand Duke showed last time, a high-speed movement comparable to mine, immense strength, and seasoned technique.

It was a flawless warrior’s strike.

However.

Whoosh!

“Useless.”

“Kugh!”

The complete power of light enveloping my body and the Holy Sword repelled him.

Without even needing to swing the sword, that power alone was enough to subdue him.

“You can’t beat me right now.”

The difference in power was palpable.

That’s why I made such an arrogant declaration to him.

“……He uses a power similar to Hector’s.”

“Hmm? The Grand Duke used this power?”

Hatsgar, who had briefly retreated, said something unexpected.

When I last fought the Grand Duke, he clearly seemed to be seeing the Imperial Soul for the first time.

Did he also realize the Imperial Soul in the meantime? Well, it seemed like there was nothing he couldn’t do.

“And that power is also similar to the Warrior Soul.”

“Warrior Soul……”

The strange powers that Igrid, Hildegard, and several tribal chiefs had shown.

The Warrior Soul resembled the Imperial Soul, but something was different.

If the Imperial Soul is an expression of yearning for the concept of the empire, the Warrior Soul felt like a power of the soul given purely to individual warriors.

“To have such power, this emperor is certainly extraordinary.”

“If you know that, it’s not too late even now. Put down your sword and return to the embrace of the empire.”

I urged him to surrender.

And if he truly surrendered, I had no intention of punishing him.

“I refuse.”

However, Hatsgar’s fighting spirit was not broken.

“To voice the opinions of the northerners who have been neglected until now, I cannot stop. My role, our role, is to instill fear in the imperials.”

“Does fear create respect? Truly a righteous cause.”

However, blood will flow.

Tragically.

“I will shed that blood together as well!”

Zzzzzzzzz!

A hot energy surged from Hatsgar’s body.

His Warrior Soul was like a burning passion that seemed to blaze even in this freezing cold.

It was different from Igrid and Hildegard, who controlled the cold.

“Here I come!”

Kwaaaang!

The emperor of the empire and the warrior of the north clashed again.

Clang! Kaang!

Hatsgar’s power, having exerted himself more sincerely, was strong.

That’s why I had to exert myself more sincerely as well.

Whiririk! Whirik!

The shadow blades imbued with light struck him like pure white whips.

Each strike was fatal and sharp, but Hatsgar skillfully parried them.

“Uooooooo!”

Kwagwang! Kagagagak!

Hatsgar charged like a berserker.

His ferocious power, imbued with the Warrior Soul, was threatening enough even to me, who was strengthened by the Imperial Soul.

Clang! Chaeng! Kaang!

The light of the empire and the passion of the warrior clashed incessantly dozens of times.

“Give it your all, Emperor!”

But as he shouted, I was not giving him my all.

“I don’t want to kill you. Your pure passion is still needed by the empire!”

The Imperial Soul was telling me.

He is someone needed by the empire, so don’t kill him.

Hatsgar gritted his teeth and shouted at my words.

“The empire abandoned us!”

A scream mixed with blood.

But I answered that without the slightest hesitation.

“I will not abandon you! The empire will not abandon you anymore!”

“……!”

Kagagak! Chaeng!

The power of light bursting out with emotion.

Hatsgar was pushed back by it.

Pushed back, he was breathing roughly.

“Huk, hoo…… Why…… Why are you doing this? I should be a traitor to you.”

He asked.

Why do you keep trying to show mercy to a traitor like himself?

I didn’t answer that it was because of the Imperial Soul.

“I…… one day became an emperor. At that time, I was not aware of my duty as an emperor.”

I spoke to him as if confessing.

When I first became the emperor of this world.

I only intended to run wild according to my desires.

And in fact, I did.

But now I have changed a little.

“But now it’s different. From some point on, the will of the empire became my strength. The entire empire is on my shoulders. That’s why I will fight for the imperials.”

Chuck-

“And you are also imperials. I will protect the imperials.”

“…….”

When I said those words that the Imperial Soul was whispering to me, but that I was clearly agreeing to with my own will.

Hatsgar was noticeably shaken.

It seemed very rare for him, a steadfast warrior.

“Why?”

He continued, showing sorrow, as if resentful.

“……If an emperor like you had appeared sooner. If that were the case…….”

“…….”

“Ha, it’s no use. It’s already too late for us to stop.”

Hatsgar said those words, withdrawing his fighting spirit.

He spoke with a sad, but on the other hand, a slightly relieved look.

“You are a good emperor. So even if we fail, there will be no need to worry about the future of the northerners.”

“……In the end, you have no intention of changing your mind?”

“That’s right. But now the reason to fight has changed. Emperor, desperately stop us.”

He acknowledged me, but still did not give up the fight.

“Listen to our cries as they are. And liquidate the past.”

So that we can move forward.

Remembering the desperate voices of those who hold grudges.

Watch them crumble.

“Please remember us, Emperor.”

“……Gladly.”

“Then, I’ll see you on the battlefield next time.”

Hatsgar said those words and then looked at Hildegard.

“Hildegard, I was sorry to you.”

“……Hatsgar.”

“Now, make the choice you want to make. Then goodbye.”

Leaving those words behind, Hatsgar disappeared.

After he left, I, who had released the Imperial Soul, became unusually solemn.

Just like he said I was a good emperor, am I a good emperor?

Was my sincerity towards him merely influenced by the Imperial Soul?

As those questions passed, I felt a shaking feeling.

“Your Majesty.”

“Ah, there’s no need to call me that right now. Since we came secretly for now.”

“No, now that I know, how can I call you lightly?”

Hildegard spoke with the utmost courtesy.

“I will follow Your Majesty and be with the loyalists.”

“Really? I thought you said you would remain neutral to reduce the infighting.”

“……My mind changed after seeing Hatsgar’s resolve. And…….”

Hildegard looked at me with eyes as clear as Igrid’s, rare for a warrior, and said.

“Your Majesty has just shown trust and power. Then I only need to respond to that.”

“I see.”

Hearing her answer, I felt that my shaking heart was getting a little better.

Looking at the spot where Hatsgar had left, I said.

“Let’s fight together for the empire, for the north.”

Even if it’s sad, we have to fight.

To open the future for everyone.

* * *

“Lord, are you alright?”

“I’m fine. How about you all?”

“Since we only sent the demon army, there are no casualties among the warriors.”

“I see.”

Lord Hatsgar, who had returned to the camp, was lost in thought even while talking to his aides.

Emperor.

The one who endlessly called out to the empire to him.

His cry was very impressive to Hatsgar, who had risen up to call out to the empire.

As he told him, if he had met him a little earlier, he might have made a different choice.

“But it’s too late. Many people will die because of me.”

“……No, Lord. It’s not your fault.”

“No, you all must have seen it too. This emperor is definitely different.”

Enough to believe in him one more time.

Then what is the meaning of their struggle?

Of course, when this emperor’s reign ends, the next emperor may be different again.

Or the emperor may defect.

The cause of the struggle has not disappeared. But the question of whether we really need to shed blood is just a little bit there.

“So, I will give you all a chance to choose. Those who don’t feel like it right now can return to the loyalists without being considered traitors.”

All the aides gathered there had surprised expressions at Hatsgar’s statement.

It may seem like he is testing their loyalty, but the aides who have been with him knew that this was genuine.

“Lord. That will never happen.”

“We will be with you to the end.”

“Your will is our will.”

And the aides showed unchanging loyalty to Hatsgar.

“You…… Thank you.”

Hatsgar’s heart was heavy.

Of course, he may win.

But the emperor he saw today was not an easy enemy.

Therefore, if they lose, they will die like worthless weeds.

But they willingly said they would go that path.

Because that is the warrior of the north.

“Then die with me.”

The time of war has come.

* * *

“What did Hatsgar say?”

“He refused outright.”

“Even if he could get the power of Kalibal?”

The beings of darkness were whispering in the shadows.

The demons and devils, the beings of the Northern Demon Realm beyond the north, who were scheming everywhere, were plotting here as well.

“Yes, he says he doesn’t need such things. Rather, he says it is disrespectful because it will disturb Kalibal’s rest.”

“Foolish thing. I thought he was a useful card.”

“……But isn’t he necessary?”

“That’s the problem. To enter that ruin…….”

To get what the demons want here, they need a pure and strong Kalibal [likely referring to a person or object associated with the god Kalibal].

Some Kalibal have been tainted by demons, but they did not meet those conditions.

“Hmm, then we’ll have to forcibly drag him in.”

“But isn’t it difficult? To forcibly corrupt him, we have to subdue him.”

But Hatsgar is a strongman that even demons cannot easily touch.

Not only that, but the demons could not recklessly touch the aides who were not tainted by demons.

“First of all, don’t we have a chance?”

“If you have a chance…… Ah, are you talking about the battle with the loyalists?”

“Yes. If they fight and the loyalists win, if Hatsgar weakens, we will have a chance.”

“But what if they win instead?”

“Wouldn’t that be a good thing for the time being?”

The collapse of the empire, the last bastion of humanity, is an unspeakably good thing for the demons.

Unfortunately, all the schemes carried out in other parts of the empire have failed, but if we succeed here, it’s not a bad thing.

“So let’s watch and look for opportunities.”

“Yes!”

Thus, the high-ranking demon Gaimodeus smiled sinisterly and decided to watch the epic of fate.
