A Famous Traitor and Treacherous Genius

263 – The Most Gorgeous Coffin for You (7)

Erases all nostrum.

They destroy everything related to Nostrum, even erasing the ancient blessings that hung over the land of Nostrum, and live only with the technology that humanity possesses.

Although it may seem plausible, this was the claim of the ‘Nostrum ethnic cleansing faction’, which was quite radical among the main war factions of the empire.

Everything about Nostrum must be eliminated.

First of all, all people beyond the Gibraltar Gorge are Nostrum, so if all living things other than the Imperial Army are killed, Nostrum will naturally become an empty land with no one.

In fact, it was a statement that could be said to be the ultimate among the imperialists.

The basis of the Empire’s attempt to conquer Nostrum was the desire to exploit Nostrum’s blessed land, not hatred of the Nostrum race.

Some argued that the Nostrum people should be made second-class citizens and discriminated against pure-blooded imperial people.

Some people took advantage of the Nostrum tradition and said that all Nostrum people should be made slaves with the logic that ‘since you lost the battle called war, you should follow us without a word’.

Others forcibly moved the Nostrum people to the outskirts of the empire and then declared that the people of the empire should occupy the empty, golden yolk lands.

The premise is all about the sacrifice and extinction of Nostrum.

The position is that no matter what sacrifices or inconveniences Nostrum experiences, it is not that important to the victor, the imperial people.

Behind all those remarks was the Emperor, Habsburg von Tersian.

From ethnic cleansing to the current method of cultural invasion through economic exchange.

The number of all cases was in the emperor’s mind, and the thoughts were expressed in editorials and editorials in the imperial newspaper and became the public opinion of the imperial people.

The Emperor wants to erase Nostrum.

This is not simply for the sake of my existence, but because I believe that nostrum itself will not be very helpful to humanity in the future.

So what about ‘me’?

Do you want to erase the nostrum?

As someone who grew up seeing all the bad aspects of Nostrum, knows the evils of Nostrum better than anyone else, and knows about the secrets and miracles of the land called Nostrum, do you want to get rid of Nostrum itself?

“Your Majesty.”

Lies do not work for the Habsburg Emperor.

“I still have a lot of time left.”

Erases the nostrum.

“Just because there are bed bugs in a house called Nostrum, you can’t immediately burn the house down.”

I agree.

But it’s too early.

“If bed bugs come out, we will catch them, lift up the bed sheets, clean them, and spray medicine in every corner of the house to eradicate them. And we will also completely replace all the furniture in the house.”

“So, let’s take a look?”

“At least what Nostrum has shown so far is not the kind of ‘country that should disappear’ that His Majesty the Emperor thought it would be, right?”

“…”

The emperor is silent.

Although the emperor made extreme claims of ethnic cleansing, there was still insufficient justification to go to that extent.

“Gibraltar will be the priming water. No matter how much a loach pollutes the river, if you catch it, twist its limbs to death, and take good care of it, there won’t be a big problem.”

From noble mtl dot come

“Small problems will continue to arise.”

“When running a country, such trivial problems always arise. Even in a world that is said to be peaceful, droughts and epidemics can occur. What is important is how well you can handle them and quickly resolve them.”＜ Br＞

“…Do you still believe in Nostrum?”

“I don’t believe in nostrum.”

Hopes for Nostrum have already been lost.

“I believe in Gibraltar in Nostrum.”

What I believe in is not Nostrum, but the power of Gibraltar within the land called Nostrum.

“They say it is Gibraltar that protects Nostrum. If Nostrum goes wrong and falls, it will be Gibraltar’s role to correct it. Even if it is treason or treason.”

“…”

“We will cut out the biggest cancer in the nostrum.”

In the original history, the father probably planned this by exchanging letters with the emperor or talking through shadows.

“Saint Geo Nostrum. The moment January 1st, 100 years of the imperial calendar, I will dethrone you.”

However, all authority regarding the plan was delegated to me.

“At the moment of the 100th year of the Empire, I will dethrone Saint Gio Nostrum and crown Naria Gio Nostrum as the true Queen of Nostrum. No disaster will happen. The Nostrum bloodline called Naria Gio Nostrum It’s after I become an ‘adult.'”

And because of that, I can take direction to some extent according to my will.

“Even if it’s right after.”

“…There is something called cigarettes in the Empire. Oh, of course there is also in the Kingdom, but the tendency is a little different from that in the Kingdom.”

The emperor made a square box shape with his fingers with a sad expression.

“There were many patients who collapsed while smoking and could not breathe properly, and they died because they could not receive magical help. The imperial medical community dissected the bodies of the dead to examine the condition of the lungs and internal organs important for breathing. .”

“What happened?”

“If an ordinary person’s organs were bright red and clean, the organs of someone who smoked a pack of cigarettes a day were rotted with silver spots.”

It’s a silver spot.

“Did you by any chance mix silver with your cigarettes?”

“It’s similar. Although you burn it and inhale it through a filter, you can’t help but inhale fine powder into your mouth.”

It is actually a method of burning silver with tobacco.

It would have been much safer if you had smoked it as a scented candle, but since you smoked it as if you were breathing in it directly, I think the silver was absorbed into your lungs and hardened it.

“Have you ever smoked?”

“No.”

“I think I can smoke it at least once.”

“I think you might not like the smell of cigarettes when you kiss.”

“Hmm, I see. I guess I didn’t really care about that.”

The Habsburg Emperor smiled softly and closed his eyes.

“Yes. You are still young. You have plenty of time, so I will give in this time.”

I know.

That time is not as long as 10 or 20 years.

Considering the time before the regression, it is probably 8 years at this point.

I was 27 years old when the traitors Gray and the Gibraltar family were executed by the Empire, so the Habsburg Emperor ruled Nostrum and gave me 7 years.

But now?

It can be shorter than 7 years.

Maybe as soon as Astasia graduates, or rather as soon as she becomes an adult, that time will run out like burning paper.

The emperor’s patience decreases as my relationship with Astasia grows closer.

“Okay. I’ll do as you wish this time. But keep in mind. I am prepared to leave in history the name of a cruel murderer who covered his hands with blood for you at any time.”

“…”

“No matter what you think, no matter what I thought ‘before’ and did to you, the past, present, and future Habsburg von Tersian is a rather stubborn person. To the point of turning the world upside down. Unless a crisis approaches, you probably know better than anyone else that you are not a person who will break your beliefs and stubbornness.”

“I know.”

That’s why.

“So, for now, let’s try to cut down St. Geo Nostrum.”

For now, I have no choice but to keep hiding my true feelings and bide my time.

“There’s still half a year left.”

To prevent war.

And to become stronger until he kills the Habsburg emperor, who might one day start a war.

“Okay, would you like to give it a try?”

“Yes.”

We fill each other’s cups.

The Habsburg emperor filled his wine glass as always, and I also filled my wine glass with the remaining somnus tea.

Correction.

I couldn’t fill it up.

Because I had already drank it over and over again, the glass bottle filled with Somnus tea was the first to run out.

“…”

A space about half a finger is empty.

On the surface of the lapping Somnus tea, the Habsburg Emperor was seen smiling deeply.

“A toast. I hope that, as you said, there is no need to erase everyone in Nostrum, but only the most incompetent germs.”

“For world peace.”

Ta-da.

The ship flies in the sky.

However, the speed is leisurely, like a ship slowly navigating the sea.

The Habsburg emperor decided to go back to his room and rest.

There are no engineers or navigators, but unless someone messes with the parts, it will maintain altitude and fly at a constant speed to the royal capital of Nostrum.

Even if a problem arises, I am there.

And there are black dragons flying ahead as if guarding the ship.

“The Duke of Winchester.”

“…”

The Duke of Winchester, who flew above the deck, was wearing the same uniform as the other dragoons, but his expression did not look good.

“Why are you doing that?”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes?”

“To talk to the emperor face to face.”

“No way.”

In order to have a conversation with the owner over the railing, I adjusted the altitude as high as possible to match the speed of the airship and took out a snack for the flying dragon and threw it into its mouth.

“I always approach conversations with the mindset that I could run away at any time.”

“I’ve seen it since I was young, but your liver is really big. Or is it because you saw in the future that you wouldn’t kill yourself?”

“Well, I don’t know.”

Personally, I would like to thank the Archduke of Winchester.

Because they thought I was just a child or had vision of the future, it took several years for the information to flow to the emperor and the true nature of ‘return’ to be revealed.

“I thought maybe I could just go a little further.”

“…”

“One finger, or so.”

“Not even a piece of paper?”

“There’s still about half a year left, right? I have to work hard in the meantime.”

I still can’t reach the emperor.

“In your opinion, what do you think of the emperor?”

“…I feel like I’m already old and can’t do anything.”

The Duke of Winchester answered with a sad face.

“Even if you and I join forces, both of us will fall. That person will live.”

“I think I can fly one arm.”

“Listen.”

“You will hear it, but you will just listen and laugh.”

“…What a scary person.”

Even if the Duke of Winchester and I join forces, it won’t work.

1 plus 1 is 2, but the standard for dealing with an emperor is whether you can deal with an average of eight masters at the same time.

“In that case, Your Excellency the Archduke.”

I lightly tapped my foot downwards to make a noise.

-How do you compare yourself to your father?

He asked the Duke of Winchester with only his mouth.

“…Hmm.”

The Archduke closed his eyes for a moment and answered.

“The sunset is red. There is still time until night comes, so get some rest.”

It’s sunset.

In the end.

Is it certain that the dark blue night sky swallows up the red sunset?

Still.

The sky is still clear, and it is time for nostrum.
