I Am an Evil God

Chapter 34-Lempria Empire

Quite a long time has passed since Lempria spread the legend of Lempria to the Southern Empire.

There was a huge gorge between the two powers, so humans couldn’t communicate with each other, but the gods, who could go anywhere if anyone believed in them, communicated well, so the empire didn’t show any signs of rebelling against Lemfra.

“Nuna, aren’t you nervous?”

“What’s there to be nervous about? A place as undeveloped as the South calls itself an empire.”

Today was the day Lempria ascended to the position of emperor.

Originally, it was supposed to be done at the same time that Lempria returned to her hometown, but due to this and that, the timing was delayed.

Among those jobs, work in the North was included.

When the missionaries of Lemfra tried to dye the myth of the north, they strongly resisted, so we had to come up with a plan to deal with the northern powers thoroughly uniting under the hat.

It took a lot of labor to make a statue made in the shape of a hat, and it drew resistance from citizens, but once it was completed, it was able to keep citizens together under the hat.

The gods under Gad humbled themselves and praised Gad.

After raising the overall faith by establishing a powerful god, they tried to expel Lemfra from their territory.

‘It’s a sound that makes no sense.’

Lempria knew how strong the faith of the missionaries following his god was, and how well they could seduce people.

A force that will eventually collapse and be absorbed if left alone.

That was Lempria’s evaluation of the northern forces.

So what prevented her from ascending to the throne of her emperor?

In Lemfra’s power map, there was no city that could be a strong center.

Although the largest number of people gathered in Lemfra Village, where Lemfra first came, most of the people in the village were not people who lived in Lemfra Village, but people who moved fluidly.

Possessing high-level agricultural tools and extra food that was swelled by the blessings of the gods, they were able to have a lot of leisure time and communicate with each other by traveling around different villages, so there were not many people who settled in one village.

To solve this, Lempria ordered all followers to decide where to live.

No matter how many different villages he went to, he had to decide where he lived most of the time, and set up a system to sleep at least five out of seven days.

It was only after the system was created, the surrounding forest was cut down, and houses were built to grow the village, that Lemfra Village grew to a size that was not so subdued even after naming it a city.

And today, Lempria will rise to the highest position among humans as the emperor who leads a city and dozens of villages.

As she spends her time gazing at her imperial palace, which was completed a week ago, her three men and women approached her.

“Dad, Mom, Mr. Athimos.”

When the people who had raised her since she was a child appeared, Lem Pria smiled brightly and stood in front of them.

Lempria, who has become an adult before she knows it, was taller than her own mother, Eria.

“You have fulfilled your destiny. I am proud of you.”

Feint hugged Lempria, and she also hugged her father tightly.

Eria and Atimos also approached and hugged the two hugging, and the imp who was standing in the back also hugged her family tightly, led by his mother Atimos’s hand.

“So when am I going to kill you?”

“How do I beat my dad?”

Lempria said, shaking her body.

She’s been around for quite some time and she’s grown her own strength, but she’s not yet at the level where she can beat her paint.

The things she has been through for a long time require her wisdom more than strength.

Unlike Feint, who fought in dozens of people at most and conquered villages in the forest alone, Lempria fought alongside several soldiers and was able to spread her faith to the southern empire. At that time, he didn’t use his strength at all and just carried out the strategy Lemfra had drawn up, focusing on his head, so he didn’t even need to receive a blessing to strengthen his physical capabilities.

That’s why Lempria couldn’t kill Feint.

Maybe she’s Lemfra’s arrangement to stop Lempria from killing Feint.

“At this rate, it would be faster for me to die of natural causes than for you to kill me.”

“I don’t know. It’s starting soon. I’ll leave.”

Lem Pria was separated from her family and moved towards the imperial palace.

In the newly created plaza near the imperial palace, countless people were waiting for the ceremony to proceed.

The time the ritual begins is when the sun goes over the horizon.

The moment the sun disappeared between the trees and the ground, Lempria moved towards the plaza.

As she passed among her people, the buzzing plaza was instantly silenced.

In her solemn atmosphere, no one could open her mouth, Lempria looked at her own stone palace.

As if to prove that she is the tallest among humans, her palace was built very high.

“Listen, everyone.”

Lempria opened her mouth.

Until she stood in front of the imperial palace, her heart was beating wildly from her nervousness, but when she came to the imperial palace, that tension disappeared like melting her eyes.

“I am the most outstanding among humans, and I intend to dominate and rule you from now on.”

She slammed the spear she was holding into her floor.

“Let anyone who has objections speak up now. If he is superior to me in any respect, I will give up the position of emperor.”

At her words, the person in front knelt down on her and hit her forehead on the floor.

One person started to do so, and in an instant, everyone fell down and took a posture of submission.

The wave-like procession led her to the place where her family was, and Lempria’s family also knelt down on her and touched her forehead to the floor, expressing her intention to obey.

“I have become the leader who leads you to the right.”

– Kung!

“I will declare that our empire, Lempria, will enjoy eternal glory.”

I also thought a lot about the name of the empire.

The name of the village could have been decided as Lemfra Village, but I thought that using the official name of the empire as the name of a god would be disrespectful to that god.

That’s why the name of the empire was named Lempria.

So that the name of the first emperor can be remembered forever.

In order not to forget that the empire was created under Lemfra.

“Everyone raise your heads. Today is a day of celebration.”

-Wow!

Everyone raised their heads and enjoyed the festival.

Up until yesterday, they were people living in different villages, but from today they belonged to the same empire.

People who have never seen each other or who have set foot in Lemfra City for the first time this time did not care, and they all mixed together and spent a festive night.

Iron ore was discovered beyond the copper vein in the east, and iron processing technology was being developed, but no alcohol was discovered yet.

Even without alcohol, it was not impossible to enjoy the festival.

When many people gathered in one place and were happy, there were people who moved as if they were drunk.

Under normal circumstances, violence or overheating could have caused problems, but because they believed that God was watching them, they were able to pass the festival without any problems.

******

Since the establishment of the empire and becoming the emperor, Lempria’s work has increased rapidly.

He had to apply the same laws to all the villages, and each village had to unite the slightly different myths into one.

It was necessary to divide the development level, which was developed mainly in Lemfra City, and the ethos that one had to come to Lemfra City to become a philosopher had to be changed.

It was an enormous workload that made me wonder if I would have to spend the rest of Lempria’s life to rebuild the empire.

Her biggest concern was not the management of her empire, but her marriage.

“So, did you find any mates?”

These days, when I visit her parents’ house, this is what I hear the most from Aria.

Father and mother formed a couple’s bond with those who were bound as the apostles of the goddess, but there was no one suitable around Lempria.

Alfrea’s apostle, who rose from her slave god to god thanks to Alfrea’s dedication to Lempria’s side, was a woman, and Ifritia’s apostle was her younger brother.

It was impossible for Lemfra to marry her brother and sister because she regarded marriage between her brother and sister as a sin.

She even had a hard time finding a male partner for her since even the leader of the Southern Empire was a woman.

When she couldn’t find her match, rumors began to circulate about a man called a hero in a village in the north.
