I Became a Level -99 Vicious Lord

Chapter 34-2

The Koutachi family, which boasts a history of 1,000 years, had a very secretive space called the Sanctuary.

However, even the Koutachi family did not know exactly what was inside the Sanctuary.

Only stories of tremendous swordsmanship or magic being sealed inside were passed down like legends.

What did you just say?

I said I will open the Sanctuary.

Are you saying you will open a place that no one in our family has been able to open in the past 1,000 years?

Yes.

Hmph!

Conrad furrowed his brow.

You sound so sure. Why should I believe you..?

If I cannot open the Sanctuary, I will sacrifice my life.

Is that really true?

I am not lying.

Conrad was skeptical of Ottos words, but he decided to believe him for now because of his willingness to sacrifice his life.

If you do indeed open the Sanctuary, I will acknowledge you. Opening the Sanctuary would be a great contribution to our family.

Yes, Your Highness.

Just in case, do you know what is inside the Sanctuary?

I do.

What is inside?

The five abilities of the Invincible Emperor are dormant there.

The Invincible Emperor?!

Conrad was now even more shocked beyond words.

The Invincible Emperor.

He was an ancient absolute ruler who had lived over 1,500 years ago, and was a figure beyond legend, almost akin to a myth.

Did.. Did you just say Invincible Emperor?

Yes, Your Highness.

And the powers of this Invincible Emperor are sealed within the Sanctuary, all five of them?

Thats correct.

Ohh

As a person who was said to have demonstrated the abilities of a god in a human body, it went without saying that his powers were terrifying.

Even the cold and calculating Conrad was moved by the idea of the Emperors powers.

If Otto could open the Sanctuary and obtain the powers of the Invincible Emperor

It wont just be a dream for our Koutachi family to become the most powerful clan on the continent. Heck, whats even the point of talking about unifying the continent, if we have those powers?

No matter how absurd or fanciful the idea was, it was an incredibly attractive story.

You have already made me anticipate it. If you disappoint me, you will pay a heavy price.

Conrad spoke to Otto in a somewhat threatening tone.

Your Highness, there will be no disappointments. I promise.

When will you open the Sanctuary, then?

Since we have traveled a long way, I will rest for about three days and then open it.

Three days our family has waited for the Sanctuary to open for almost a thousand years. Whats three days compared to that? Alright, stay here and rest.

Thank you.

So Otto ended up staying inside the Koutachi familys castle.

***

That night.

Otto and Camille received an incredibly lavish treatment.

Conrad had ordered them to be treated just as well as any king or queen would be, leaving no room for any shortcomings.

Before going to bed:

Are you okay?

Camille asked Otto.

What do you mean?

Right now, Duke Conrad is treating us well, but what if he turns on us after the Sanctuary is opened?

That wont happen.

Otto laughed, reassuring Camille.

Duke Conrad is not that kind of person. He keeps his word.

But

Of course, we cant trust the other relatives of the family, but at least Duke Conrad is trustworthy.

Um.

And there are also safety measures in place, so dont worry.

Safety measures?

Yes.

Do you mean the mace?

No, Of course not.

Otto shook his head.

Even though the mace is powerful, its not enough to survive here. Do you know how terrifying Conrad is?

Ive heard stories that he was called the Blood Reaper when he was young.

Conrad was rated as one of the top 10 strongest men known throughout the continent.

No matter how old he was, a tiger is still a tiger. Even with the power of Kairos Punishment, it was questionable whether Otto could withstand even a minute.

Can I tell you a secret?

Otto smiled playfully as he spoke.

What is it?

Only those who have opened the Sanctuary can enter.

What?!

Camille was surprised.

Thats right. Only the person who has opened it has the right to enter. So even if the Sanctuary is opened, only I can enter. And only I can obtain the power within.

Then

It means that its impossible for anyone from the Koutachi family to attack me from behind. Are they crazy? To attack the only person who can enter the Sanctuary? Instead, they should treat me better and please me, so they can learn at least one of the powers that were sealed within the Sanctuary.

.!

Im not stupid, so dont worry too much.

All right.

After reassuring Camille, Otto immediately fell asleep.

***

What? Selenas son came to visit?

Yes, sir.

Where the hell is he?

Conrads half-brother, Javier, was not pleased with Ottos visit.

The reason was simple. As Conrad had no children, Javiers son had been designated as the strong candidate to be the next head of the family.

However, with Conrads grandson suddenly appearing, it was inevitable that it would cause some discomfort.

If Conrad were to appoint Otto as the next head of the Koutachi family, there would be nothing he could do about it.

Of course, Otto would have to have the necessary ability for the role

Deploy knights near the lodging where he is staying and keep a close eye on him. Understood?

Yes!

I dont know what hes up to, but if hes got any foolish ideas, I wont let him live.

In the end, Otto was caught up in an unpleasant situation beyond his control.

With only him left as the direct descendant of the Koutachi family, the members of the branch family couldnt help but be wary.
