Chapter 267
「6. The Empire」
In a distant past now beyond memory, when the Blue Mage Tower Lord was still a young girl unaware of the world.
Shortly after the King of Humans defeated the King of Monsters, the rulers of each nation were summoned to a single place.
Seats were strictly assigned according to each person’s rank, and among them, Dale sat in the highest position.
The Black Gold Monarch.
In place of the Third Empire that had long since fallen, countless independent nations briefly sprang up like mushrooms after rain, but it was nothing more than a fleeting daydream.
War raged incessantly between nation and nation.
No matter how vigilant the Watchers of Kings were in observing them, no matter how fiercely they tried to restrain them with force, they could not prevent every war that erupted.
Blood still flowed across this land, and to the human king, it was utter folly.
Therefore, he sought to rule directly.
So that the people of this land would no longer repeat their folly. Under one nation and one system, he resolved to weave the entire continent into a blue spider’s web and watch over them.
After making his decision, he summoned the rulers of each nation.
“From this moment, I declare the birth of a new empire.”
The Black Gold Monarch declared, and gasps of awe echoed from all corners.
“And this gathering shall be recorded as the first Imperial Council, proclaiming the birth of the new empire and determining its collective will.”
There existed only one nation on this continent, and the minor nobles and feudal lords within it were no exception.
