Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons! Book 6: Chapter 8

Ill be honest. This is the first ti Ive seen such a long line. This long line Im talking about is the empresss horse-carriage escort. I now understood why the empress doesnt easily leave the palace. Its not because she doesnt like to, but because there is too much to prepare when the ruler goes out on a tour. The rulers horse-carriage is pulled by eight horses in a very extravagant fashion. The Valkyries all wore white robes and rode on white horses around the empresss horse-carriage. The cavalry were around the more outer-section of the formation. In the rear were the horse-carriages carrying the empresss maids who attend to her. And then there were the guys and ordinary soldiers. And they even transported food and gold for the sake of coming with to that city.

The extravagant escort was like a huge snake. The denizens who saw the empress horse-carriage all had to kneel down and salute her. Mom sat in her horse-carriage and looked out from behind her black veil. She sighed and said: This took two weeks to prepare for so mommy isnt willing to leave like this. Its honestly too much trouble, tires the people and is a waste of money.

Youre basically a bird in a cage then mom. You conquered this land yet you are locked in the tiny palace.

I looked at mom with sympathy. Mom is the kind of person who cant sit still. She likes horse-riding, swinging her sword and running around freely outside. Mom isnt a chicken with no wings. Shes an eagle that toils outside. Mom is now entertained with luxury in every way, but mom must miss those years where she was on the battlefield with her soldiers in the harsh weather most. Mom pulled off a long-distance raid on her own in the desert back then. The entire world was hers. But mom can only move about in that small palace now.

This is mommys choice. As the empress, mommy has to be responsible for these people. Since they believe in , I cant be wilful. Mom smiled and held in her arms. She stroked my head and softly continued, All mommy wants is a world with you. Mommy has never hated mommys identity as the empress and inability to leave. Mommys only regret was not bringing you back with mommy back then However, mommy would probably have regretted it even more if mommy brought you into a dangerous place.

Moms hand calluses are a result of all those years, but they were still warm nonetheless. Mom used to be a stranger to hugging and stroking . However, she now does all that incomparably gently. At moms side, I found mom slowly beca a kind mother at my side from her role as the venerable empress.

Mom let go of and suggested: Son, you should go and ride out in front so that everybody can see you. They cant look up at , but itd be good for them to see you and get to know the next emperor.

Alright.

I pulled open the horse-carriage window. Nier turned around to look at . Only the royal family knows about Nier and for now so Nier still rode alongside us as a Valkyrie outside. However, those who are attentive would be able to tell. Nier had the royal familys coat of arms on her chest. That is an honour a Valkyrie would never have.

I must confess. Sothing else happened today that led to Nier still being a little unhappy And that was that she found her Valkyrie uniform surprisingly a little tight for her

She looked at and in a courteous voice void of emotion like in the past asked : What is it, your majesty?

I looked at her and replied: Bring a horse over. Im going to ride in front.

Nier nodded and then ca back with a horse not long after. I opened the carriage-door. It takes so skill to jump from a moving horse-carriage onto another horse I got onto the horse, tapped it with my foot and then hustled up to the front of the escort. The cavalry now behind picked up their horns and blew them.

Why do elves and humans do this? What, are the two races from the sa school?!

The people around raised their head up and looked at . They cheered for Of course, I dont know how many of those cheers were actually sincere. I personally believe them to all be fake because Ive never done anything worthy of their worship. Destroying the church and absorbing Castor doesnt provide them with any obvious benefit. According to what mom said, it will be hard for to win the peoples support unless I achieve military accomplishnts.

From my side, Nier sneakily reached her hand out and grabbed a corner of my cape. I looked at her but she didnt look at . However, I noticed that she wore a grin that was hard to spot. While she wore a cold expression in front of others, she was still tightly holding a corner of my cape in secret.

Nier is seriously way too cute

I really wanted to pull Nier into my arms. But Ill probably get beaten to death by her if I did since we cant announce our relationship publicly right now. We havent gotten married yet after all. I personally feel that it would be best for to accomplish sothing praiseworthy before being lovey-dovey in front of everyone like with the deer hunting festival on the elven side. I would be able to be with Lucia now if that crisis didnt take place that ti. But then I probably wouldve missed out on Nier.

What do I need to do to win the acknowledgent of the people here in humanity? Ive been acknowledged by the royal family. Now how do I get the people to acknowledge ? Mom is an empress that cant be questioned. She is the empress of victory that conquered virtually the entire continent. But as for I dont even have a title.

Titles arent just what you want them to be, but what everyone believes you to be worth. Only that way will you have credibility. I really want a chuunibyou title, but I havent accomplished anything for people to respectfully address as sothing sothing king, or sothing sothing emperor.

I smiled and waved at the people. I heard horse hooves behind and Freya soon appeared next to . She smiled and said: Onii-sama, you look like you are really pleased with yourself now.

Do I? Im just revealing myself in case people dont recognise .

Did you not used to think that the less number of people recognised you, the easier it was to move around? Are you no longer willing to go around as a commoner? I guess it is fair. You will soon have your own domain. That is your most important place.

Freya chuckled cheerfully and continued, Manage your domain well. Then follow her majestys orders to advance and maybe very soon, you will beco the next emperor. But you must also consider how you are going to get all of the ministers and officials of the empire to submit to you and obey you.

I really want to know too.

Are you not looking for a way right now?

Freya winked at and then continued, If you can get the people in your domain to acknowledge you, then you will be able to get the people of a nation to acknowledge you. If you can get the people of a nation to acknowledge you, then you will be able to conquer all the lands. That was the path her majesty walked, and it is the sa for you. Onii-sama, please do not disregard or dislike the domain as being small for it is your starting point as the emperor!
