Became the Emperor in the Hero Game - Chapter 99
99 – Part 3 Episode 1
Ready to go meet the Dragon Lord.
Hearing that, I immediately started preparing.
First of all, I called in the knights who were training under Sarion.
“God, Peltz, Commander of the Imperial Knights. We have returned by order of His Majesty the Emperor.”
“God, Giel, the leader of the Hwangyeong Knights. We have returned by order of His Majesty the Emperor.”
“The two knight commanders, cooperate with the Minister of Information and Rael to look into the system.”
“”Yes, Your Majesty.””
We have to vacate the system for a not short period of time.
Fortunately, the kings manage all the lands except Jedo, so the only thing I have to worry about is Jedo.
However, this was also a serious issue, so he called in both knights and set up defenses.
“Rael, stay in the islands for a while and prepare for any unforeseen disturbances.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“The Intelligence Department is also doing its best to defend the system until Jim returns.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The administrative part is left to the two of them.
Dia is not someone I would betray with my limbs,
In addition, there is no powerless foundation at all, so even if you make up your mind, betrayal is impossible, so you can trust it.
Rael was also trustworthy and had the ability, so it was a conclusion we could draw.
Before leaving, I looked at the knight commanders for a while and felt satisfied that Sarion’s education was useful.
I’m not a warrior, so I don’t know exactly how successful the training was, but it was clear that there was a change in the momentum of the two.
If those two keep the system and the other masters assist, we will be able to repel most threats, and even if not, we will be able to hold out until I return.
“My dear, are you ready yet?”
“It’s done, so please wait.”
The number of people leaving for the dragon’s gorge are me, the archduke, Kiriya and the Jackie Chan who is supposed to follow him, and finally, Argo, who will represent the Great Forest, and Zephyrus, the god of wind, the representative of the gods who decided to cooperate with the Great Forest. Finally, to Sien.
I took one last look at my men and left with the Archduke and Shien to the place where we were supposed to join the others.
It was a remote area that did not belong to any kingdom, but as long as I moved myself, it was not much different from going to the neighboring province.
“Ah, are you here now?”
“… Did you say Zephyros?”
“Yeah, I remember! This body is the lord of all winds… “
“Ah, Emperor! Welcome.”
Suddenly, Argo interrupted Zephyrus and greeted me.
Looks like I’m the most late.
“Are you late to get that armament?”
Unlike the last time I saw Kiriya, she is wearing a golden sword and armor.
I’ve seen sacred relics and whatnot a few times, but I felt that they were of a different class.
To put it a bit exaggeratedly, they are armed enough to cut down a master even if held in the hands of a mediocre villager.
“Yes. Of course, I have no intention of fighting him, but just in case.”
“Well, I see.”
“You?”
“My sharpest sword is with you.”
Of course, I was talking about Shien.
The magic tools I have are also great masterpieces, but I don’t think I can use my power against the Dragon Lord.
“Are we meeting for the first time?”
The pink-haired woman standing next to Kiriya asked me.
She took on a human form, but it wasn’t too hard to tell that she was Jackie Chan.
“My God, Pluto’s descendants have grown up like this.”
“That’s it. Isabelle, is that right?”
“Sure! I am Isabel. Artemia has grown so much, too.”
“It’s been a while! You haven’t changed at all.”
“It’s me, what can I change?”
The two exchanged friendly greetings for a while, probably knowing the Grand Duke, and Shien stayed by my side the whole time.
In fact, in training with Sarion, it seemed like Shien had made the most of it.
She didn’t gain any new powers, but she seemed to have learned how to handle what she had.
Of course, it won’t be perfect, as it’s still lacking, but if you think there’s room for it to become even stronger, it’s not necessarily negative.
“So, this is Dragon Canyon? I don’t think so.”
“Ah, Emperor. I will explain that.”
Argo answered my question, thinking that I would have solved all the questions.
“There are two ways to get to Dragon Canyon. One flying.”
“That is a dismissal.”
“Yes. In fact, the dragon’s gorge is so far away that even if the emperor could fly, it wouldn’t have been a recommended method. Then there is only one way left.”
After saying that, Argo pointed to himself and Isabel and said with a proud expression.
“For two or more of the four ancient dragons to open the door together.”
“Four Great Ancient Dragons?”
“I meant Argo and Isabel, and Pluto and Nidhogg. What should we say, because in terms of the human kingdom, we were in a position comparable to dukes.”
“Four great ancient dragons. It’s been a long time since I heard that.”
“Right, well. It’s been a long time since Isabel and Nana left Dragon Canyon. Anyway, only two or more of us can open the door to Dragon’s Gorge. Now that Nidhogg is dead and Pluto is in the canyon, Isabel and I must be together.”
“Then shall we open it now?”
As Isabel asked, Kiriya looked at me.
“No, no no. First, prepare your mind… “
“I’ll open it right away.”
The words of the wind god who intervened in the middle were naturally ignored, and Isabelle and Argo stepped forward.
One was in the form of an elf and the other was a human, but in reality, the dragons, which are called the greatest race, and among them, those called ancient dragons used their hands.
“… Amazing I couldn’t see the process.”
It must have been a kind of magic, but it was so mysterious that even I, who reached transcendence only with magic, could not understand the process.
“Well, I don’t know the principle of this either. It’s just the way Lord told me.”
“Why do two or more of the old dragons have to come together?”
“Well… ? Come to think of it, maybe you didn’t want Nidhogg to mess with the canyon with his beasts, or maybe he just found it more fun to do.”
“You are so unpredictable.”
Actually, I agree with the former reason.
Even if it’s an enemy that can be easily wiped out, I don’t want to bring it into the system. But if it’s the latter…
‘A user who risked his life for romance?’
In fact, there were certain types of gamers.
Especially, the dead figures who cleared everything no matter what they did created all sorts of really inefficient gimmicks, but if the dragon lord is really a strong man who overwhelms everyone else, it wouldn’t be strange if he did this just for fun like the dead figures where I was.
“The biggest problem is that you couldn’t figure out the dragon lord’s personality.”
“Well, since we don’t know that well, it’s difficult for the emperor to figure it out. Sometimes you’re really innocent, but other times it’s different. Well then now
Let’s go soon!”
Argo snapped his hand and the huge golden door opened.
It was not a space magic that temporarily moved the caster and the target, but when the golden door continuously connecting the two spaces opened, a different landscape unfolded beyond it.
“Then let’s go in.”
I took the lead, followed by Kiriya, followed by Shien, Archduke, and Jackie Chan.
Argo stood in the middle, and after that, Isabel, the Jackie Chan, and Zephyrus, the god of wind, crossed the door talking about this and that.
‘Are you the representative? Why?’
‘Who else could represent the great gods if not this great and free Lord Zephyrus!’
‘…… ‘
‘… Everyone is annoying… ‘
“Argo.”
“Hmm?”
“Is it true that you can trust the god Zephyrus? Not credit, but ability.”

At my question, Argo laughed out loud.
“Ha ha ha! Even if he’s a little screwed up, you can trust him because his skills are genuine. Rather, take a look at our beautiful canyon.”
“… Certainly, it is beautiful.”
It looks much older than the ruins on the continent, but still, magnificent buildings, statues, and artworks filled the high canyon.
It is said that dragons usually enjoy collecting wealth, but what about the sacred ground of such dragons?
The majority of the buildings were gigantic buildings meant for the main body of a dragon, but there were also quite a few buildings that fit the size of a human.
“Ah, that’s for dragons like me and Isabel now. Since Pluto has maintained his human form for quite some time, he will use those buildings. It’s not uncommon for dragons to take on the form of a servant they like.”
“By the way, there are no really important dragons.”
“hahahaha, I can’t help it. Maybe Pluto is with Lord, the red and blue dragons, and our little magician went to the whale.”
“… Is that the price?”
“Um, yes. You did a lot.”
“… Well, good Where is that rod?”
At that moment, a man with black hair and black eyes, walking from the other side of us, approached us in response to my words.
“I will guide you.”
“… Pluto?”
“This is the first time I’m meeting you, my descendant.”
