I Am an Evil God

Episode 78 – Appointment Ceremony

It’s already been a week since Aison received basic permission from Lemfra and the god of justice, Park Bum.

Over the past week, Eison has devoted all his time to organizing offices for his subjects.

Since the division of duties had not yet been done, in addition to the previous work, I did not have time to sleep properly, but I did my best for a week so that I would not have to work later. He moved his body and divided the government posts so that the empire could return without Aison.

Since it was necessary to complete the reporting system rather than simply dividing the work, that amount of time was consumed.

He was really busy because he needed to complete not only that, but also the handover.

“Maybe I can apply it to practice now…”

Aria, who has suffered with Eison for the past week, carefully asked Eison.

Certainly, we have now reached a level where we can conduct the appointment ceremony and properly conduct practical work.

Since there was nothing more that could be done by dragging out the time, I could have enshrined the God of Justice and held the appointment ceremony right away.

Justice himself told me to just prepare myself because the time is always available.

“And I think I need a few days to get used to it so I can adapt when Aison goes on vacation.”

“Okay, okay. Arya, go rest now. You look very tired.”

“No. Eison is working hard, and I can’t rest comfortably.”

It was okay because Aison was already used to the heavy workload, but it was the first workload Arya had ever experienced before, so she couldn’t come to her senses properly.

She was trembling with a dazed expression and speaking in a soulless voice, and she felt dizzy that something was about to happen. There was no

‘God of justice, in the morning sand…’

[I will be available tomorrow morning.]

‘Okay. Then, we will proceed with the appointment ceremony in the morning. I express my gratitude to the God of Justice for granting my humble servant’s request.’

Arya was dozing on her hull when Eison finished her prayer and opened her eyes.

‘Oh…’

Feeling that it must have been difficult as well, Aison moved her aria and sat her on his chair, and then she placed the duvet she was covering on top of it.

‘I’ll have to find a place to hold the appointment ceremony.’

Waking up the next day and not thinking of any surprises, Eison went outside to find a suitable place.

***********

“Have you all gathered?”

The Apostle of the God of Justice spoke with a trembling voice.

He went up to the capital at the word of his god, but he did not expect to stand in front of so many people.

Even Lempria, the emperor of the empire, and Aison, his son, were looking at her, so she couldn’t stop her body from trembling.

Although the god of justice was slowly spreading his name, he was not used to seeing many people looking at him because there weren’t that many followers yet.

“Everyone has gathered.”

Oh my God, how embarrassing that Rem Priam, Emperor of the Empire and disciple of God Lem Prasin, used honorifics to herself.

‘Huh?’

If you look closely, it’s really coming.

“Today’s ritual, thank you.”

“Yes, I will do my best.”

Lempria seen up close was really beautiful.

As a mother who has raised two children, she is already in her mid-thirties, but her years seem to be unstoppable, and she still maintains her youthful skin and appearance.

Considering that her father, Feint, died of old age, it was also possible to know that her society had changed a lot in her short time.

Numerous people gathered near the plaza where the ceremony was being held and waited for the ceremony to take place.

In order to see who would benefit the empire by sharing Lempria’s authority, not only people in the capital, but also many people who were far from the capital gathered.

“Those who will borrow the sovereignty of the Lempria Empire. Come forward.”

When the sun was exactly in the sky, the apostle of the god of justice opened his mouth.

At her words, ten servants stepped forward, including Lempria’s son Aison.

He is from the royal family, and in fact, he was certain to succeed Lempria as emperor, but he hadn’t even risen to the position of emperor yet. He was actually acting like an apostle of Catria, but he hadn’t even become an apostle of Lemfra yet.

Therefore, since he was still in the position of a servant, he needed to swear his innocence and innocence under the name of the god of justice.

“From now on, you will rule the empire in behalf of Lord Lempria, who has inherited authority from Lord Lemphra. You will be given enormous authority and responsibility, and I promise you that you will never be corrupted under the name of the god of justice. If you do not take an oath, you cannot become an official of the empire. If you break your oath, you will be punished by having your eyes gouged out and your tongue cut out, and you will fall into hell. I ask you one last question: Whoever seems to be corrupted by not taking up the authority given to you, say, This is the first thing I ask of you.”

As she recited her lines that she had memorized in advance, no one came forward.

“I ask you again. Those who do not assume the authority given to you and are likely to fall, those who do not seem to be able to properly use the authority Lemfra-sama has lent to you, please speak. This is the second time I ask you all. .”

Nobody came forward this time either.

All of them faithfully believed in Lemfra and had the ability to carry the Lemfra Empire.

“I ask you one last question. Those who are likely to fall without carrying the authority given to you, those who are unlikely to be able to properly use the authority that Lemfra-sama lent to them, and those who will not be able to devote their lives to the empire of Lempria. Tell them the same.”

Nobody came forward.

“From now on, you are the officials who will lead the Lempria Empire. You have the authority and responsibility to hire subordinates to benefit the Lempria Empire. Always remember that you are the officials of the Lempria Empire, and Live a life that serves as an example to the people of the Empire.”

After finally finishing all the stories he had memorized, the Apostle of the God of Justice slowly stepped back.

At the same time, Lempria stood in front and looked at the officials.

“I’ll tell you about the offices you’re going to hold, Allen.”

“Yes!”

“From now on, you will be in charge of the security of the Lempria Empire.”

As Lempria beckoned, a man called Allen approached and knelt in front of her.

Lempria held out a parchment in his hand on which he wrote down what he had to do, what he could do, and what he had to report. He took the parchment and reached his place.

“Preteen!”

Thus, the time for appointments of officials continued.

“Finally… Ison!”

Lem Pria barely held back the moment she was about to be labeled as my lovely son.

“Yes.”

He knelt in front of Lempria with a calmer face than any other official.

“You will be in charge of everything in the Lempria Empire from now on. Supervise the officials and work hard to make the Empire a better country.”

“I understand. Your Majesty the Emperor.”

She almost shed tears as Eison took the parchment from her hand.

When did a child who was so young grow up like this?

Actually, Aison was an outstanding child from a young age, and when she was Aison’s age, she occupied the northern part of the current Lempria Empire and subdued a monster that ruled the Southern Empire. Ison, who was the same age as her, looked too young in her eyes.

Lempria, who lived a different life than his father, was confident that he would outlive his father, but he knew that it was impossible to live forever.

“With the above, we will complete the appointment ceremony.”

With Lempria’s declaration, hammer-shaped seals were engraved on the wrists of all who were appointed as officials.

We will carry out justice like a strong hammer.

It was a seal that would be recognized by the god of justice and be monitored at the same time.

“Wow!!”

Right after the appointment ceremony, a festival was held.

Distributing the authority handed down from heaven to other humans was a must for the empire to grow larger.
