I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Chapter 1: Liam

This was my second life.

My new name is [Liam Sera Banfield] If I looked into a mirror, the image of a young boy with black hair and purple eyes would gaze back at me.

Im currently five years old.

One day, while I was playing around in my room, I suddenly recalled all the memories of my previous life.

There was a large variety of toys scattered around me.

this room is big.

The guide said Id be born into a house of power and nobility.

It seems like he kept his promise.

Certainly, from what I can recall, I was definitely born into a nobles household.

The Banfield house.

The intergalactic state known as the Algrand Empire, also known as the Albanian Dynasty.

In such an empire, I was born into an Earls house that dominates one galaxy.

And I was going to be its future lord.

No, I was going to be a king that controlled an entire galaxy.

He kept his promise.

I could feel a smile creeping up my face.

I didnt know what I was going to be reincarnated as, but this is better than I couldve ever imagined.

If they did this expecting that I was going to become a good person, then they have gravely mistaken their prospects.

After all, I dont plan to be a good person this time.

This time, Im aiming to be a great evil lord.

Though there are a few problems, like What does an evil lord even do?

In dramas, theyd oppress the people and stuff, but what should I do?

Other ideas that come to mind include alcohol, women, and gambling maybe?

In any case, should I just aim to feast on this lifes delicacies?

That doesnt really give off the image of an evil lord.

Should I imitate corrupt politicians and waste taxes while taking bribes?

Well, things should be fine as long as I live as I like.

In any case, this seems like a lot of fun. huh?

Something had fallen on my head.

It was a letter.

It was carefully sealed, and when opened, I was surprised to see that it was from the guide.

Why didnt he just come here himself?

The answer to my question was written in the letter.

It said he was sending me a congratulations for my successful reincarnation.

But at the same time, it was written that unfortunately, he was a little busy and couldnt come over himself.

However, he said he wouldnt just leave me out to dry.

The letter said that hed send over some support to help me soon.

Support?

While I was hunched over reading, my parents entered into the room along with a servant.

Cliff Sera Banfield.

Darcy Sera Banfield.

They walked over to me with smiles, and handed over something akin to a glass plate.

A document floated up on the glass plates surface.

What was written there was the transfer of titles, territory, and other rights over to me.

Why would they suddenly hand something like this over to a child?

Father, what is this?

Unfortunately, I honestly havent had much contact with my parents.

So Im actually having a bit of trouble understanding why theyre doing this right now.

Perhaps noticing my complexion, the man who I wasnt accustomed to calling father started to explain himself. However, the explanation itself was quite outrageous.

Liam, Happy 5th Birthday. My present to you is the Banfield house in its entirety.

In its entirety.

He just said that he was going to give a five-year-old child complete custody over his territory and all other assets.

Is he insane?

Thats what I thought, but at the same time I remembered the letter I just read.

It had already vanished from my hand but is this what it meant by sending over support?

My mother Darcy then handed over a catalog.

This is my present, Ill purchase a maid robot to take care of you. So here, take a look and choose something you like.

Darcy wanted to buy me a robot that resembled humans while doubling as a maid.

A robot that looks like an actual human so an android?

As I opened up the received catalog, an assortment of images projected out towards me.

And not just images, videos and 3D holograms projected into the air, really giving off a futuristic vibe.

W-what is this?

Darcy smiled and started to explain how to use it.

Just pick a maid that tickles your fancy, so you might as well choose one thats cute as well.

It was almost as if I was choosing a character for a game.

And if its like that then

Underneath each android various numbers were displayed, but since I didnt have to worry about the money, I wanted to make sure I got nothing less than the highest specs.

In the end, I chose the one with an appearance akin to a japanese-styled beauty.

Her long black hair was tied into a ponytail that flowed all the way down to her back, while her bangs grew longer on the right side rather than her left. Needless to say, I chose one that was well endowed.

The description even said that it was fully capable of processing sexual desires if needed.

I looked up.

Cliff was smiling at me.

You really are my child, you have good taste.

Oh, um I think I like chests because Im still young?

My parents had the warm, teasing smiles they could only show to a child buying a robot with adult functions.

It was quite the surreal scene if I do say so myself.

The elderly butler standing behind them Brian, was sending over looks that seemed to say he had complex feelings about all this.

I could feel myself burning up in shame and embarrassment.

As I thought, this is quite unusual, isnt it?

But now Im sure.

This is probably the support the guide said hed send over.

Putting aside how I was worried about how meddlesome my parents would be, I was afraid of women and how theyd act around me.

Women of flesh-and-blood cant be trusted.

So I thought the robot maid was a really nice gift.

Id have no worries about her betraying me.

In any case, I ended up choosing the one with the highest specs.

Confirming my choices, I set it so that shed be wearing a classic maid outfit.

Miniskirts and such were overkill.

I was troubled whether I should set the skirt to be above or below the knees, but in the end I set it below them.

Darcys delight at my choices was just barely noticeable.

Hey, you know you still bought your son a robot maid fully capable of processing sexual desires, right?

Oh, shes quite pretty. Im sure that if we left Liam to this robot, hed be quite safe.

I couldnt help but feel discomfort at my parents attitude.

Gathering my courage, I looked up at the two of them and asked,

Are you going somewhere?

Cliff was rubbing his jaw.

The Star Empire I bought a residence in their capital, and we plan to move there.

I started to sign the electronic documents that would transfer over the status and territory.

Then Darcy showed me another electronic document.

Oh yes, Liam, sign here too please.

It was a document that said Id send them living expenses over at the star capital every year.

They were giving everything to me while they themselves would live out a simple urban life.

theyre really pitiful parents.

This child of yours is a reincarnated person, it was the ridiculous truth that I already had the mentality of a fully grown man.

I dont know what the guide did, but such a loving couple was now handing over their entire lifes status and property to me.

What else could I call this if not pitiful?

We mightve not spent the most time together, but its only natural Id send over living expenses to a couple that have given me so much.

Of course!

Only my face was smiling.

I was about to take everything away from the parents that I wasnt even that close to.

Even so, I signed the electronic documents that seemed to push high expectations for my future.

A few days later.

Liams parents arrived at the space port docks while being protected by an escort.

They boarded the private shuttle together, but they were actually sitting apart from one another.

First theyd leave the spaceport on this lavishly decorated shuttle, but from then on itd be a straight trip over to the Star Capital on an official empire spacecraft.

This was quite the exciting development for a provincial Earl household.

While Cliff was reading an electronic newspaper, he opened his mouth and called out to Darcy.

They werent even looking at each other.

You gave him a robot, are you even aware of your own motherhood?

In contrast, Darcy was drinking tea.

There was no love between the two of them.

Their relationship was that of two nobles that had a political marriage.

Hes a child who inherited my genes. My stomach went through many pains just to give birth to him, yet I cant say I feel any real affection towards him.

Liam was the product of their two genes combining together.

Thats all he was to them.

As Cliff put his newspaper down on the table, it was Darcy who spoke up this time.

are you sure it was okay to leave everything over to a five-year-old?

If I say it isnt, are you going to stay?

Im being serious here.

Darcy continued after taking another sip of tea.

I would never have married you if I couldnt have this chance at freedom, but I cant help but feel a little guilty forsaking a child who knows nothing. I gave him a robot, so isnt that at least a small mercy?

Cliff was laughing.

A nobleman keeping a robot at his side, hell no doubt be a laughingstock.

You wont betray me, I can at least trust you in that aspect, but if something happens to that boy well be forced to return here, cant you see that?

Dont think about it.

Darcy was anxious.

So youre totally fine with this? You have no qualms with pushing a five-year-old child into a venomous position hes not ready for?

Cliff reached out for some alcohol.

He was finally free from it all, and couldnt help but smile at the newfound liberation he felt.

Its not unheard of, there are precedents of others succeeding that young, besides we have the permission of the royal court. There are lots of other people doing the same thing, so dont worry. Nowadays, it doesnt really matter who the lord is, nobody wants to rule over a frontier region like that.

The Empire was okay with imposing status and property onto five-year-olds.

But theres a reason for this.

The Empire doesnt really want to get involved with the frontiers, as long as theres a proper administrator there, it doesnt really matter if one neglects their duties.

For an intergalactic empire, governance was very difficult.

Moreover, the Empire has tried to avoid the use of artificial intelligences since its formation.

Humanity was once dominated by the very artificial intelligences they created to serve them.

And it was the people of the empire who rose up against that unreasonable force.

As a result, the aristocracy couldnt feel at ease when maid robots and the like which used said artificial intelligence were nearby.

It was the noble societys trend to use it only if necessary, but even then it was undesirable.

Darcy looked down towards the space port that the shuttle departed from.

The planet owned by the Banfield family.

A sullen place that was scarcely developed.

In addition, it was in massive debt.

If he knew about the territory, theres no doubt Liam would be angry.

Cliffs drink was probably strong, since his face was now a little redder.

Im pushing my territory to my only child and fleeing to the Star Capital

A place that no one would be happy to live at.

That, was the territory of the Banfield family.

Banfield main estate.

An Earl at the age of five, I had become a man who ruled over an entire galaxy.

Now Im one of those in power, or maybe I can call myself a king?

In the empire, there were many houses on the level of the Banfield family.

But as long as I was in my own territory, I was the king.

An absolute person of power.

Brian brought over a report to me, who was sitting in an oversized chair in my fathers former office.

Liam, your maid robot has arrived.

Understood, let her in.

As you wish enter.

The door to the office opened, and the maid robot that I saw from the catalogue walked inside.

Her movements felt completely natural.

If I didnt know beforehand, thered have been no way I wouldve guessed that shes actually a robot.

Once she finally arrived in front of me, she proceeded to curtsy, picking up the ends of her skirt and bowing.

Its a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Master,1 I am your new maid, designated as Amagi.

[Amagi], thats a japanese name.

Theres no particular reason why, shes just named that way.

Meanwhile Brian was standing by nonchalantly.

Master, I plan to stay by your side to take care of you, however, it seems that I need to receive maintenance once every week.

Maintenance?

As I looked over her, maybe Amagis greetings were over, because she then proceeded after standing up straight.

For regular maintenance, I can finish in about two hours.

Thats surprising, I thought it wouldve taken longer than that.

Brian followed up, seeing how it surpassed my expectations,

Even if it says maintenance, its just a body checkup. Cleaning and such, but if theres a serious problem, then wed have to send it back to the manufacturer for repairs.

When you think about it, isnt it amazing that all it needs to maintain itself is just two hours of rest every week?

In curiosity, I stretched my hands out towards Amagi.

She then approached me, and gently lifted me up and proceeded to hug me.

I could feel her chest. It was a big chest thatd be impossible for me to grasp with my small hands.

Its soft. The softness that every man desires.

They werent too soft, they had a certain toughness to them, and they felt really nice.

Brian looked a bit perplexed.

Lord Liam, please refrain from doing such things in public.

Brian is a man whos been serving the Banfield family for a long time, Ive heard that he even managed the house for a while long ago.

Though as a butler, it seems he didnt have the skills necessary for managing the house, but he was still a talent that we were reluctant to fire.

Even so, Im the master here.

I was already in a ridiculous position, so I decided to abandon my childishness.

What I do is my business. Anyways, continue with the report about the territory.

Brian proceeded to touch his bracelet, and pictures started floating out around him.

They represented the state of the territory in numerical figures and graphs.

There was even a map displayed there.

I have no idea what any of this means.

Brian seemed to have a slightly disappointed atmosphere of as expected, but you couldnt really see it on his face.

Still, this is bad.

I have no idea what to do.

While I was contemplating how much trouble I was in, Amagi, who was still holding me close to her heart, spoke up,

I have the functions to act as an assistant governor if necessary. Master, if its okay, would you like me to assist you?

Really? I seriously dont understand any of this, you know?

I recommend you enter into an education capsule. During this time, I can temporarily take over the administration rights of the territory.

Listening to that, Brian bursts out in protest.

Lord Liam, Im completely against this! Leaving administration to an artificial intelligence is considered taboo in the Empire! Even allowing her to support you like this is questionable enough.

But Amagi refuted his claim.

There are no such laws in the Empire, that is more of societys mindset of things, but either way, I will follow the masters orders.

Educational capsules sure were convenient devices.

When placed inside the capsules liquid, the knowledge you desire will automatically start to enter your mind while putting your body through physical therapy.

If it were elementary school knowledge, then youd have to rest inside the capsule for a least half a year.

The problem is that you wont actually be able to retain that strengthened body and sharpened mind unless you actually go outside to train and study afterwards. What was the point in living life if you were permanently stuck inside a capsule?

Even so, I hear that its still many times more efficient than studying normally.

Looking at these numbers and graphs, I felt once again how incompetent I was.

Modern knowledge from my previous life wont help me with domestic affairs here.

Brian, prepare the capsule. Amagi, I will leave the territory in your care while Im inside.

Lord Liam!

Brian cried out in dissent, but Amagi just responded with, Please leave it to me.

It looks like my commands are the only ones that shell listen to.

Isnt this quite wonderful?

I moved to persuade Brian.

Brian, look at the facts. I really dont know anything about this, so are you sure its okay for me to run the territory as I am now?

T-that may be so, but-

Its only going to be for a little while, if you understand, then get it ready.

In any case, if I can leave the work to someone else, I might as well.

Society might denounce artificial intelligences, but that doesnt matter to me.

That said, I was still in a bad position.

If I just wanted to oppress the people, then I dont think I really had any need to study.

However, lets keep this to myself for now.

My body is still that of a child.

Itd be much harder for me to oppress them if they undermined my authority due to my age.

I continued to think about such things as I stared at Amagis chest.
