Reincarnated as an Emperor ~ Will the Emperor at Birth Survive? Chapter 13: Silver Bloodthirst

Im six years old. There have been many changes since Ive arrived here.

First of all, the Steward, Helck, has less work.

To be precise, only the liaison with the Regency Faction will be done by another person. Im very happy about this. I dont like the fact that he was using to make money. Serves you right!

Officially, Helck is still the steward, so the Regency Faction has to go through him. So, they created a new position that was separate from the steward position. Incidentally, this was the Regency Factions specialty.

The position was personal attendant. The title given to that person was head attendant in Aquicurls cultural region. I also heard they created a poison taster position.

Well, Ill explain about this head attendant later.

The problem was the person who I was introduced to as my personal attendant was a nine-year-old boy nad Timona Renan, who was so beautiful that he could be mistaken for a girl.

And this silver-haired boy is always directing his bloodthirst towards .

I really wish he would stop it.

According to the Regent Faction, the boy was appointed since the Regent wanted to give her son a future close aide (or friend) and he was the poison taster because they felt that the results would be more accurate if it was done by soone close to my size (it seems that the effectiveness of the poison amount is proportionate to ones weight).

Well, I know why hes directing his bloodlust at ; Its the role of the head attendant.

This culture doesnt exist in Bungdalto culture (like the Raul Dukedom, or near the imperial capital) or in Lothar culture (most parts of the Empire), but among the aristocrats of Aquicurl culture (the so-called Aquicurl region), homosexuality exists.

The head attendant is in other words, the favoured child of nobility. He was chosen to be my male partner.

What the fuck? I didnt ask for this. Im not interested in males.

So, at first, I was wary and annoyed that he was pointing his bloodlust at . You didnt have to accept the job if you were going to turn your bloodlust at . I thought it was strange for him to look at like that.

I finally understood the situation after Count Palatine Vedett explained it to .

Apparently, Timonas father, an Aquicurl Baron, knew about Timonas aversion to homosexuality, and has refused all advances from the other Aquicurl aristocrats up until now. But he was told that it was the Emperors wish this ti, so he couldnt refuse and reluctantly accepted.

They used my na as they liked and tricked them into believing that it was my wish.

It was an action that trampled on the dignity of this boy and .

I will never forgive them.

Furthermore, according to Count Palatine Vedett, this was the Regents own decision.

Lord Aquicul, who was originally a mber of the imperial family and was born in the imperial capital, had no interest in n, but the Regent was born and raised in the Aquicurl region, where this was the norm, therefore she brought this boy here.

Im not opposed to homosexuality, but dont force it on .

Im going to kill that old hag. I dont care if shes my family or not.

Im sorry, Timona. I cant say this to him while Im acting the fool, so Ill have to endure this murderous aura in silence for now.

If I dont do sothing about this soon, then hell seriously stab .

My education has started. It was worse than I expected.

Religious studies only glorify the western sects of this nation. The Western Sect is right! The best! The rest are heresy and bullshit! I was made to listen to things like this every ti.

So, I tried to run away from religious studies from then. I really wanted to say, You guys are bullshit! And it was a waste of ti.

Art and culture was yup. Deny Aquicurl culture and glorify Lothar culture. I cant believe the factions influence was so evident.

Can you stop cussing and criticising Timona Renan, who stands next to ? Each ti it happens, I fear that his bloodlust will increase. Im really starting to lose my mind.

Languages was even worse.

First of all, theyre teaching too many languages: Bungdalto language, Holy One language (like Latin on Earth), Lothar language, Aquicurl language, Warung language, and Theanabe language. These are the languages spoken in the Empire.

Thats too much, and the languages of the surrounding nations are added to the list.

Well, all the languages in the Empire are heavily influenced by the Lothar language, so it wasnt impossible to learn them.

Also, children have brilliant minds. They can rember a lot after repeating it a few tis. Youth is great.

However, the biggest problem with the language class was that I wasnt taught any letters.

The classes were all in listening format. I listen, repeat, then talk. That was all.

That reminds , I heard that in my previous world, there were a good number of European Kings who couldnt read. Maybe that was just how it was. If they cant read, then they wont find illegal docunts or anything.

But this was a problem. I want to be able to read as soon as possible, and I dont want the Chancellor or the Chief of the Ministry of Ceremonies to find out that I can read.

But this was quite difficult. I was being watched by people from both factions even during my history class with Count Palatine Vedett.

I have to learn, but I cant. However, Ill just have to endure it for now

Horse riding? I just got to know the horses and ride them. Thanks to that, Im able to ride, so Im not troubled.

Today was my history lesson with Count Palatine Vedett.

Do you rember what you learned in the previous lesson, Your Majesty?

Hmm, I do. We covered up until the Great Schism Period.

The Lothar Empire, which once existed in this land, was historically known as Forr Giorus Dynasty, Lothar Empire. This nation has existed since Year 101 on the solar calendar and was originally the Lothar Empire.

The Forr Giorus Dynasty of Lothar Empire, including the ti when it was Lothar Kingdom was a dynasty that lasted for about 20 generations, or about 350 years. In the early to middle of the period, it was a hegemonic state west of the Heavenly Mountain Range.

Incidentally, the Heavenly Mountain Range was a large mountain range located in the centre of this continent, stretching out from the north to the south. It was a steep mountain range that can be seen from the capital on a clear day.

It was Year 53 on the solar calendar when the Holy One Church was accepted. At that ti, the Lothar Kingdom, which believed in the sa polytheistic religion as the Great Monarchy Kalnaan, located to the south of the Empire, was in a peculiar situation where it was superior to the Great Monarchy Kalnaan in terms of power, but the Lothar Kingdom had to pay homage to them in terms of religion. In the midst of this, the Lothar Kingdom, which had accepted the Holy One religion and made it its state religion, took its na from the legendary Hyperion Empire and changed its na to the Lothar Empire.

Thus, it beca the largest nation on this continent in both na and reality and enjoyed a period of prosperity.

However, in Year 220 of the solar calendar, a rebellion called the Great Rebellion broke out due to the tyranny of the Chancellor, and in the Year 222, the imperial capital, Odunau fell. Although it was quickly reclaid, the authority of the Empire was undermined, and frontier regions and vassal states frequently declared their independence. In addition, civil war broke out (Year 234 Year 239) because of religious conflict between the Holy One Religions Western Sect and Inheritance Sect). This was followed by a series of rebellions and the Great Schism Period began (Year 245 ~).

This was a rough summary of what was taught in the previous lesson.

By the way, there is a mont when I feel uneasy while taking this class; it was when Count Palatine Vadetts showed his hardcore faith in the Lothar Empire.

Excellent. You are so smart, Your Majesty. Now, lets continue. Today, we will talk about the establishnt of the Bungdalto Empire. There are a lot of nations in this lesson that have betrayed the Lothar Empire, so be careful not to associate with them.

It might have been a mistake to ask Count Palatine to teach history after all.

The Forr Giorus Dynasty of Lothar Empire was destroyed in the year 248 of the solar calendar. It was destroyed by the Ghafur rcenaries, Grakion.

The following year in 249, the Chancellor, who had escaped the capital just before the fall of the Empire, with a set of treasures used by successive emperors, ascended to the throne as the successor of the Lothar Empire in the fortified city of Haulow. This was called the Phetail Dynasty of the Lothar Empire.

The one that destroyed that was the Later Giorus Dynasty of Lothar Empire. This nation was founded by a mber of the imperial family from the Giorus Dynasty who raised an army with the locals. This nation had a legitimate successor according to Count Palatine Vedett.

However, they were destroyed by the Seldonal Dynasty of Lothar Empire because they tried to revive the political system of the Forr Giorus Dynasty and made the remote frontier city Odunau their capital.

The Seldonal Dynasty of Lothar Empire was the successor to Phetail Dynasty and made Harlough its capital. The Phetail Dynasty called itself the Lothar Empire because it held its treasures and the Later Giorus Dynasty called itself the Lothar Empire because of their bloodline, but this had nothing to do with this nation.

The Phetail Dynasty and Seldonal Dynasty are sotis referred to as fake dynasties.

In connection to this, Phetail People and Seldonal People dont exist, but it was used as insults to describe deserters, thieves, cowards, disloyal people, people who only have big reputations, vain people, liars and fools.

I wonder if this was true.

Now before we get to the founding of the Bungdalto Empire, lets talk a little about the Bungdalto people.

The Bungdalto people were indigenous people who lived in the area where the current Ghafur Republic was now located (the eastern part of the north of the Empire). One of the tribes (like a branch family), the Gabe tribe, made great achievents in the middle to late period of the Forr Giorus Dynasty, and were granted the title of Landgrave. At that ti, the other Bungdalto tribes, who had been driven out of their hos by the nomadic Ghafur tribes, also ca to the area, and the Gades, who were only one tribe, beca the head of the other Bungdalto tribes.

As the fief of the Landgrave was remote, it wasnt involved in any religious civil wars or vassal independence fights. However, because the fief was the frontline against the Ghafur nation, it was unable to send troops when the Forr Giorus Dynasty fell. But they were able to protect one of the royal family mbers, which led to the establishnt of the Later Giorus Dynasty. At that ti, they married into the Giorus family and beca a Duke, the most conspicuous noble family in the nation.

However, the Later Giorus Dynasty moved its capital to Odunau, a remote part of the nation.

Unfortunately, around this ti, the Ghafur Kingdom declared imperialism.

The grandson of a Grakion, a Ghafur rcenary (apparently, a hero in the Ghafur nation), who once destroyed the Forr Giorus Dynasty, declared that they were an Empire with the treasure he once looted from the imperial capital. He invaded the land of the Later Giorus Dynasty or rather, the land of the Bungdalto tribe who were at the national border.

Both nations had high offensive and defensive capabilities. The war between them also dragged in neighbouring nations and was known as the War of Nations. It was from this that the Ghafur nation went from a kingdom to an empire and finally a republic.

During this war, the Seldonal Dynasty invaded the Later Giorus Dynasty. In response to this, a rebellion broke out between the Bungdalto tribes (apparently they were dissatisfied with the fact that the Gade tribe, which was originally only one tribe, had beco the head tribe), so they were unable to help in the fall of the Later Giorus Dynasty.

However, at the ti of the fall of the Later Giorus Dynasty, so officers succeeded in escaping the besieged Imperial Capital with the imperial flag, coat of arms, imperial crown and imperial seal. They delivered them to Duke Bungdalto, the future Emperor Cardinal, who was related to Giorus House and according to the Imperial law, was a rightful heir to the throne. Emperor Cardinal, who had just suppressed the tribal rebellion, recaptured the territory of the Later Giorus Dynasty within a year. He also deeply invaded the Seldonal Dynastys territory and proclaid his ascension to the throne at what is now the Founding Hill, not far from the enemy capital, Harlough. He nad the Empire, the Bungdalto Empire.

This happened in the Year 310. This was currently the Year 461. The 150th anniversary of the founding of the nation was last year.

But isnt it too convenient for him to end that kind of war in just one year? As a royal family of the Bungdalto Empire, I should believe this, but it was more normal to think that the Bungdaltos abandoned the Giorus House.

He wouldnt have been able to accomplish that much in a year if he hadnt ticulously planned and prepared well. No matter how you looked at it, Emperor Cardinal waited until he had good reason to act.

But if he had actually abandoned the Giorus House, then I dont understand why this Count Palatine Vedett (a devotee of Lothar) would obediently obey the Bungdaltos. Is he planning to kill at so point? Or are there certain circumstances he hasnt told yet?

That will be all for todays lesson. Please take care, you two.

Ill have to investigate this soti.

By the way, Timona Renan was also taking classes with . I dont know if history class was the only class he paid attention in, but I didnt feel his bloodlust.

He directs his bloodlust at as soon as class is done though. Im dubious about having a potential close aide aiming for my life.

Hah.
