Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

The only thing Soren felt fortunate about was the backwardness of the local production technology, which created huge business opportunities for him. He could use this to manufacture many highly profitable goods.

After all, no matter how times change, money is always a crucial resource. As long as he had enough wealth in his hands, he could use money to attract a large number of supporters, thereby consolidating his position and influence.

At the beginning of the kingdom, magicians would use magic to enhance the country's productivity, but by the time of Holy Prague II, magicians had become completely detached from worldly affairs and did not engage in production.

In addition, with the magicians and nobles monopolizing knowledge, and these two groups not engaging in production, the country's production technology had not improved for more than 150 years.

Everyone focused on swords and magic. As long as one had outstanding strength, money and wealth would surely pour in. This caused the entire world, regardless of commoners, slaves, nobles, or royal family members, to focus wholeheartedly on cultivation.

"Poor scholars, rich warriors" is exactly what this meant, except compared to the ancient world of his previous life, at least there were still "poor scholars." In this world of high martial prowess, no matter how much one studied, it was not as good as a great swordsman's single sword strike.

This family banquet gradually came to an end amidst Soren's endless resentment.

The Empress Dowager Aifeina, sitting at the head of the table, had already put down her soup spoon and, supported by two maids, retreated into the inner hall.

Empress Dowager Aifeina was only in her early twenties older than Gustav. Without reaching the Holy Rank, her lifespan was limited, so it did not significantly extend her life.

Now, the Empress Dowager, the years had left deep marks on her body, and she had little time left. The flame of her life was about to come to an end.

As soon as the Empress Dowager left, the nobles sitting in the northwest direction began to stand up and complain, requesting support from the central government.

Although everyone knew that the northwestern region was suffering from a locust plague, people from the other three regions followed suit, standing up to ask for aid, with all sorts of bizarre reasons, leaving Soren dumbfounded.

In short, they adhered to the mentality of "a fool who doesn't take advantage when there's an opportunity," which ultimately aroused Gustav's anger, and the banquet ended unhappily.

When the northwestern nobles left, Soren noticed their resentful and malicious gazes sweeping over them, these princes and princesses.

Ice three feet thick is not formed in a single day.

After the nobles from the four regions left the hall, Gustav's accumulated anger completely erupted. He violently overturned the long table in front of him, which was more than five meters long. The entire hall was silent, and even Gustav's most beloved empress and imperial concubines dared not stand up.

Soon after, Soren saw his cheap father emperor give a look to the guards around him.

In the Holy Prague Empire, there was no such noble profession as eunuchs, hence the position of female chief attendant.

A guard nodded, walked down the steps, and headed towards the seating area of Soren and the other princes.

"By His Majesty's decree, Prince Nicholas, Soren, and Yaso are to enter the inner hall to listen to the Empress Dowager's instructions!" The guard first walked to the three brothers, Nicholas, Soren, and Yaso, to convey the emperor's decree.

Soren, Nicholas, and Yaso quickly got up and headed towards the inner hall.

Upon entering the Empress Dowager's bedroom, another guard came to convey Empress Dowager Aifeina's decree to the three brothers: "The Empress Dowager commands that the three princes wait here first!"

The three brothers waited for a while, and another person walked into the palace.

It was the Eighth Prince, Class.

"Class greets the imperial brothers!" Class quickly greeted his two elder brothers.

Soren smiled and nodded, chatting with him for a few words. Yaso, as a younger brother, could only return the greeting, but Nicholas didn't even look at Class directly, only making a nasal sound, considering it a greeting.

In dealing with people and matters, the difference in quality was immediately apparent.

"Seventh Imperial Brother!" Class asked nervously, "Do you know why Father Emperor called us here?"

Soren nodded and said, "Probably to test our studies!"

Nicholas also said, "That's probably it."

He was older and knew more, so he explained, "When our great-grandfather was alive, every time there was a major event in the country, he would summon all the princes to test their studies and ask for their countermeasures!"

This was probably a good tradition of the royal family, gathering ideas and benefiting from them, while also exploring the potential of the princes.

Soon after, Prince Samael also entered. He was ranked fourth, but in reality, he was the second oldest, as the second and third princes seemed to have died a few years after birth, so Soren was ranked seventh.

"Oh! Imperial brothers, you arrived so early!" Samael was completely dressed as a dissolute young master.

He also had another identity, which was the biological brother of Prince Williams.

Soren, who had played the Tyrant route, knew that these were just his appearances, and in secret, he was a ruthless and unscrupulous guy. The outward appearance was just used to paralyze other competitors.

If Samael had not been out of favor and assassinated three years later, this guy would also have been a strong contender for the throne.

Nicholas still maintained a high and aloof demeanor, ignoring him. Although Soren didn't like Samael, he still smiled and greeted him, completely acting like a good old man.

Soren had already decided that after the layout was completed, he would learn from Samael and act like he didn't care about state affairs, just getting by, and at most, just liking to make money.

"Nicholas is right." Empress Dowager Aifeina walked out of the inner hall with the support of two maids, saying as she walked, "It's just that this time is a little different."

"Your sons and subjects greet the Imperial Grandmother!" Upon seeing Empress Dowager Aifeina, Nicholas took the lead, and the brothers and others quickly knelt down to greet her.

Empress Dowager Aifeina, although her appearance showed the traces of time and seemed old and frail, was actually a hidden Half-Step Sword Saint. In the upcoming assassination of the emperor, this old lady would show amazing power. At that time, she would be like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, instantly beheading more than a dozen people, including three famous Grand Swordsmen.

Soren naturally knew about that thrilling assassination. In the game, he had personally controlled Empress Dowager Aifeina, wielding a sharp sword and eliminating assassins, so he had a deep understanding of the Empress Dowager's powerful combat power. Especially that move, Phoenix Spreads its Wings, was extremely powerful, and even Sword Saint-level experts would not dare to take it head-on easily.

Phoenix Spreads its Wings was a secret skill passed down within the royal family, and only the empress and emperor were qualified to practice it. Even the noble princes had no chance to see it.
