77 77 ``The King and Hero (1/2)

It was an empire reigned by the emperor. At the heart of it all, the Emperor's Chamber.

A diminutive figure dressed in white robes appears in the blink of an eye.

”I'm home, Your Majesty. I gave you the letter for the other side.

The courageous Tsurugi bowed somewhat exaggeratedly, not reprimanding or saying a word of encouragement to it.

The person sitting on the throne neither reprimanded them nor offered a word of thanks for finishing their duties.

I don't want to go through the trouble of meeting with you, but if you had the power of the emperor, you could take the whole country from them.

That's not funny.

The emperor, seated on his throne, smiles for the first time with a smile of amusement as he admonishes the clownish figure before him: ”The essence of supremacy is to fill in the blanks, but there is no point in doing so by force alone.

The essence of supremacy is to destroy it, but it does not mean anything if you do it by force alone. I want to see this 'cultivator' in person first of all. Then we can decide what to do with it.

There was an expectation and interest in the yet-to-be-seen cultivator, as well as an absolute belief in himself.

”Besides, confronting them is an inevitable part of my plan. Then I should at least meet them face to face and declare war.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but I think it's a good idea.

”That's the emperor. Then I'll play along with your playfulness in my own way.

You're still a clown all talk. You are yourself and you can do what you want. Do you mind if I follow you to the other side?

I guess so. . maybe that's not so bad either.
