550 The Sacred Empire (1/2)
”Shit! Why did the Otref Kingdom decide to ally with that country full of filthy beasts? Now we can't touch them!”
An old man with a white beard punched a table blowing it apart.
”Rumors say that it is related to the Blacksmith Prince. It seems that he even gifted a lot of weapon to them. However, even with those weapons, it shouldn't be a problem eradicating them if we attack.”
An ugly middle-aged man spoke.
There were ten persons in the room, and each of them looked ugly despite all of them having the power to change their looks at will.
They were humans, but they had a twisted aesthetic sense that made them think that they were extremely well-looking like that.
On the other hand, they would consider people like Yale or Tofesh, extremely ugly.
”Idiot! This isn't a matter if we can win against that country or not. It is a matter that we can't afford the revenge of the Otref Kingdom afterward. That is a country of inferior humans, so they are inferior to us, superior humans, but the father of the king is a Minor God serving a member of the Council of Gods, we can't face them.”
There weren't inferior or superior humans, but their culture differentiated them based on the looks.
”Maybe they won't retaliate since their ally would already be dead.”
The next to speak was an ugly woman.
”You are also an idiot! The Blacksmith Prince gifting so many weapons isn't just to strengthen that country's army. That is a way to tell the rest of the countries that the Otref Kingdom would go all out to protect those filthy beasts!”
The old man with a white beard was the supreme leader of that country, and he was also the only person who dealt with external affairs. Having met with the other nine strongest people in the country was just a show because no one could disobey him, or they would be executed without exception.
”I thought that this was a good chance to show the world that it is a blasphemy that beasts could obtain wisdom and even take forms similar to humans, but now no one would attack. We, humans, should be the only ones with wisdom and chances to become immortal. Anything that isn't pure human should disappear forever!”
Everyone in the room nodded after hearing the old man's words.
That was what their religion said. Only humans could have wisdom and reach immortality, and anyone who wasn't pure human was a being that should be destroyed. Moreover, inferior humans could only live as slaves of superior humans.
However, they had been unable to expand their ideals to outside their country because that would lead to a war with countries that supported the equality between species.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click visiting.
They were strong, but they couldn't afford such a big war. Especially, the Otref Kingdom was the opponent they feared the most because of their background.
The founders of that country came all from a lower universe. There, after turning strong, they killed all the beings in their universe that weren't pure human and castrated all the inferior humans to create what they called a superior race.
Their universe creator wasn't a pure human, so they also killed him after having prepared a way to escape to another universe of the same level, where they did the same before ascending.
”Anyway, we can't touch them right now. However, we can execute everyone who called those filthy beasts cute. How could aberrations like them be considered cute? Traitors! Let's quickly prepare the public execution, so everyone learns what happens if they show any kind of goodwill to the filthy beasts. Words of praise are death punishment!”
Everyone in the room nodded again because they really thought like that old man.
No one on the country complained about the public execution, not even the family and friends of those who were executed.
It didn't matter how they thought, if they complained, they would just be executed like the others.
They were even insulting their family and friends and accusing them of traitors to prevent that the government would suspect that they could have any kind of thought that didn't belong to the mainstream thought permitted.
That was how that country made that everyone had the same opinion. Everyone feared death, and they knew that they couldn't go against the government since there were ten ninth level immortals there.
Thus, they decided to follow every order of the government, and eventually, they treated those ideals as their own.
A lot of them even go hunting any non-human being to bring them back to their houses and put the heads there. Of course, that included humanoid species like elves or beasts in half-beast or human form.
Having inferior humans as slaves were also considered normal, and not having at least one would make others look down that family.
