Year Nine of the Hasoladi Empire
The First Empire of the Human Race (Hasoladi Empire) lasted for 9 years.
The imperial capital, Proladi City.
That is, Proshir.
This place, once the capital of the Elf Dynasty, has now become the imperial capital of the First Empire of the Human Race.
Because in the eyes of the creatures of Feland.
Throughout history, no matter how powerful your country may be, only Proadas has ever been the center of the Feland World.
Only by conquering this place can one be considered the dominant race in the Feland World!
In order to demonstrate its legitimacy, the First Empire of the Human Race was not spared either, and in the second year after destroying the Elf Dynasty.
Mikto I then moved the Proladi City.
Of course, to distinguish himself from the Elf Dynasty, he slightly changed the name of his capital city from Proshir to Proladi City.
years ago.
Under the emperor's orders.
The empire's Artisan and civil Mage embarked on a massive construction and expansion project, discarding the refined elegance of the Elf and creating a magnificent capital for the new Human Empire.
The Imperial Palace was the first to be built.
Inside the vast Imperial Palace.
The emperor's palace.
At the bedside of Mikto I.
Mikto Hasoladi looked at his son.
This is his seventh son, and now his eldest son, Belather Hasoladi.
Belather's six older brothers all died on the battlefields of conquering the continent.
In terms of warfare, the princes of the Hasoladi Empire had all been sent out to fight by the emperor, and the mortality rate was very high.
But this is also one of the reasons why Mikto I was able to conquer the continent.
After all, even the emperor's sons had died in battle; what else among the nobles could not die?
In the deep of night.
The Imperial Palace guards, clad in armor and armed with weapons, protected the empire's masters.
The courtiers and nobles knelt outside the palace, awaiting the final outcome.
The palace, filled with smoke and the smell of medicine, was dimly lit by the Magic Crystal lamps.
Belather Hasoladi knelt in terror before his father's bedside, listening to his final words of advice!
"Listen, my son, heir to the empire!"
Although Mikto I was terminally ill and like a candle flickering in the wind, his eyes were brighter than ever before!
"I am about to die. After my death, the empire will inevitably descend into chaos, and if not handled properly, it may even fall apart and perish."
"So, the first thing I want you to do is trust your brothers!"
In these past few years.
Mikto I, sensing his days were numbered, enfeoffed his dozens of sons in key positions throughout the continent to serve as a bulwark for the central dynasty!
"Yes, Father!"
Belather Hasoladi nodded quickly, but his lowered eyes flickered slightly.
"Secondly, you must propose marriage to the princess of the Lionheart Kingdom!"
"Ah! Why?"
Belather Hasoladi was puzzled.
"I don't have much time left, so I won't explain anymore. Just do as I say."
"Yes, Father."
Belather Hasoladi sighed, then suddenly remembered something and looked up to ask.
"By the way, Father, why didn't you let His God of Death heal your injuries?"
"He won't save me."
Mikto I's gaze was utterly calm.
"This is the third point I want to make to you: the Empire's faith is the shared faith of all the gods, not the faith of His Highness the God of God of Death. You must remember this."
"But doesn't our royal family worship His God of Death?"
Belather Hasoladi's eyes widened.
"Shut up, that was before, but now!"
"Do not interfere with the gods we originally worship, or the gods of defeated races or nations!"
"The empire must maintain freedom of belief in order for our empire to endure!"
"This is the most important point, do you remember it?"
"I will remember, Father!"
Belather Hasoladi nodded hastily, still in shock.
I hope you truly understand!
Mikto I saw that his son had agreed, although he was still somewhat worried, he was ultimately relieved.
As the empire's territory expanded, he became aware of the fundamental conflict between the empire and God of Death.
For the empire to last, freedom of religion was necessary, and from that time on, he consciously began to associate more closely with other deities.
The marriage alliance with Lionheart, besides appeasing the remaining Lionheart people within the Empire, was primarily for the sake of the supreme and Supreme Lord of Judgment behind Lionheart!
Anyone who learns about the deeds of that Lord of White Gold will feel their scalp tingle and their whole body tremble, even if he was the founding emperor of a great empire!
But God of Death is not an easy god to talk to...
Furthermore, his madness terrified Mikto I!
In his view, all the gods in the world combined wouldn't be enough to defeat the Lord of Judgment with just one hand.
I don't know why certain gods would have those kinds of thoughts.
