Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

Suddenly, the low chanting of the temple's sacred hymns echoed in my ears, and looking around, the whole world was shrouded in black.

Nuns in black robes stood silently on either side of the scarlet-robed archbishop, holding Bibles in their hands.

Sobbing could be heard everywhere.

Wuwu wuwu, thousands upon thousands of people were weeping simultaneously, the atmosphere of sorrow needing no cultivation, naturally drawing everyone into the emotion of grief. Within and without the massive palace, there was not a single person who was not crying.

Sauron knelt on the cold tiled floor, tears like flowers on his face, when he suddenly stiffened, tears still clinging to his cheeks, the scene before his eyes beginning to reverse.

Soon, Sauron recovered once more; the originally dazed him let out a loud wail and fainted.

However, many around him paid no heed, remaining in their praying postures.

"To think, I actually transmigrated!"

Amidst the countless sobs, in this unnoticed corner, a strange smile escaped the lips of the fainted Sauron.

In his previous life, he was just an insignificant nobody from the Huaxia of the 21st century, living a mediocre and ordinary life, almost a typical depiction of life for most people in that era.

Now, he had been reborn, and it seemed his status was not low.

"Things should be better now, no need to live that timid life anymore!" Sauron thought, the corner of his eye inadvertently glancing at a figure kneeling not far in front of him.

A thin physique, as if a gust of wind could blow her away, a slightly low and hoarse cry, indicating that she was indeed very sad.

A hint of doubt flashed in Sauron's eyes; the person looked very similar, could it be an illusion?

Holy Prague Calendar, Year 327, Summer, Fourth Month: The founding mother of the nation, Blena, passed away from illness, at the age of 286.

The Holy Prague Empire relied on the national mother's powerful spellcasting abilities to establish the foundation of the nation, and then, together with the founding Emperor Prague I, conquered the north and south, finally establishing the vast territory of today.

During the national mother's lifetime, the country was stable, and all foreign races dared not disobey.

Listening to the white-robed bishop proclaim the national mother's great achievements, Sauron's body trembled slightly, his gaze sweeping once more towards that thin figure, looking more and more like her.

In the next moment, he secretly glanced at a few other people in his memory.

That's right, these people were characters from that game.

In his previous life, he had played a large-scale fantasy game from a certain island nation called "The Emperor's Banner," and Sauron constantly complained about the settings inside, because they were too in line with the twisted and perverted thinking of those islanders.

He quickly recalled his identity in the game, and his entire person instantly became restless: the fourth Emperor of Holy Prague, affectionately called Tyrant Sauron by the majority of players.

As the final BOSS in the game, Tyrant Sauron, besides being powerful, was also extremely tyrannical and bloodthirsty; he usurped the throne by killing his brother, and even slaughtered all the relatives of his own elder brother, leaving none alive.

Because his ascension to the throne was illegitimate, in order to consolidate his own regime, he began the path of tyranny, killing all the rebellious and dissatisfied ministers and officials, turning the entire imperial capital into a river of blood.

Tyrant Sauron was extremely indiscriminate in his killings, slaughtering prisoners of war. In the second year of his reign, a noble rebellion broke out. After a great victory in the Battle of Karlrond, regardless of whether they were nobles or coerced civilians, all were beheaded, numbering as many as a million. Afterwards, he even cut off the flesh of the captives and made it into jerky to distribute to the refugees to win back the hearts of the people.

In subsequent wars, whenever a city fell, he would slaughter all the inhabitants within.

Tyrant Sauron was not only ruthless to his enemies, but even more ruthless to his own people, indiscriminately killing subordinates. On the battlefield, once the main general died in battle, all the surviving soldiers of his unit would be beheaded; if the war was lost, regardless of merit or demerit, both the main general and the soldiers would be beheaded, using this barbaric method to increase combat effectiveness.

Because of his indiscriminate killings, during his reign, the Holy Prague Empire, which had a population of hundreds of millions, was left with only over ninety million after his death.

Sauron remembered very clearly that after his death, his corpse was cut into seven pieces and sealed in various parts of the empire, despised by all the people.

Especially later, when the island nation released a DLC expansion pack, specifically using the tyrant as the protagonist template, Sauron had even played it, and the entire game process was really too depressing.

Feigning a faint was just to cover up his momentary absent-mindedness, and to earn a good reputation for mourning his great-grandmother and being excessively saddened.

Anyway, this funeral had already been held for three days, and countless people had fainted; as one of the princes, if he didn't faint once, it would be somewhat unreasonable.

"It's coming..." Recalling the memories of his previous life, Sauron silently recited a prayer from the Bible.

Before his voice had faded, a commotion came from the front.

Several maids supported a woman dressed in black sacrificial robes, who had already fainted, and quietly retreated from the church.

Someone whispered around, "Empress Maria has fainted!"

"Isn't that right!"

"Now that the national mother is gone, Empress Maria's life will be difficult..."

"Silence... silence..."

Listening to these people's discussions, Sauron quietly got up, hunched over, trying not to alarm anyone, slowly stepping forward along the edges, approaching the front.

Even though Sauron was already very low-key, his actions still attracted the attention of many people.

For a time, countless gazes focused on Sauron.

During this time of national mourning, not to mention a prince, even an inner servant would not dare to move easily.

Sauron didn't care about the gazes of those people; in the game, Sauron had relied on the power of Empress Maria's family to have the strength to contend with his elder brother.

When he was playing the game, even he, as a player, felt that Sauron had a tendency to overshadow his lord with his merits, but unfortunately, Sauron was unaware of this, and even Empress Maria, who had kindly reminded him in the beginning, dismissed it with disdain.

It was because of Empress Maria's reminder and her helping hand at a crucial moment that Sauron had the opportunity to return to the imperial capital. This was also the reason why Empress Maria later became his spiritual pillar; his indiscriminate killings also completely spiraled out of control after Empress Maria was assassinated.

Since he had transmigrated, Sauron naturally didn't want to follow the historical trajectory; he wanted to make arrangements in advance, to take the path of Empress Maria. He still wanted to be emperor, but in this life, he wanted to be a master of revival.

Hunching over, Sauron carefully stepped to the front of the crystal coffin in the center of the hall.

Subconsciously glancing at the national mother inside the crystal coffin, her appearance still maintained that of a beautiful young woman in her thirties; although her real age was already close to three hundred years, as a Saint Magister, besides having a lifespan of nearly three hundred years, she could also maintain the appearance she had when she broke through to become a Saint Magister.
