I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire!

Chapter 47: The Guide Sows Seeds of Revenge

After being burned by the golden spear, the guide was bridling with revenge.

Liam I will never forgive you

However, there was one problem.

As Liam currently was, it would be extremely difficult to drop him into hell.

Renowned as a virtuous ruler, he was constantly sending off disgusting positive emotions towards the guide.

It wouldnt be easy to take revenge on him.

But thats not to say it wasnt possible.

So what should he do?

There are a lot of people who have a grudge against Liam. Ill find them and sow the seeds of revenge.

While grasping at his chest in pain, the guide used his power to search for individuals with strong feelings of revenge towards Liam.

And while there were a number of strong reactions, there were two prominent people who stood out among the rest.

I found you!

Stepping through the door he manifested, he appeared in front of the first person who sought revenge against Liam.

It was none other than Yasushi.

He was grasping at his head in the middle of a dark alley.

Seeing his figure, the guide shouted out,

SO ITS YOU AGAAAAAIIIIINNNN!!!

Yasushi was the origin of Liams unfathomable strength.

The guide didnt have a very good opinion of him for that very reason.

Therefore, he was going to kill him this instant to appease that hate but he stopped himself after hearing his words.

What the hell is the One-Flash?! Ill never forgive him for associating my name with such a thing!

After the tournament at the elementary school, the name of the sword style Liam used spread like wildfire.

Liam told everyone it was called the One-Flash, and naturally, now all those interested were looking into it.

As such, Yasushi was constantly being chased as a result.

The guide looked down at him.

I-if this keeps up, my lie will be exposed and Ill be killed by Liam. Even now, Im being hunted by pirates as the master who trained the Pirate Hunter.

Yasushi made his resolve,

If I dont fix this soon, Ill be killed. For this, I need to train some new disciples. I cant do this by myself. If I train them the same way I did for Liam, Im sure everything will work out.

The guide applauded that idea, as it was something he never wouldve thought of himself,

Yasushi Im counting on you.

If his lies were to be exposed, Yasushi was sure that Liam would get rid of him.

So just like how he trained Liam, he decided hed train two more disciples to assassinate him.

In addition to that, he was also thinking about how this could help protect himself from pirates.

First, I need to find a child more talented than Liam financially, I still have some leeway. I need to temper them specifically for the sake of slaying him.

The guide was also in favour of this idea,

Youre better than I thought, Yasushi. I support your plan, so heres a little gift from me.

As the guide snapped his fingers, the voices of two people fighting could be heard in the distance.

Although he was intimidated, Yasushi still went to investigate the noise.

There, he found two young children beating down a man who jumped them with sticks.

Their bodies were thin, but they were wielding large canes heavier than what youd think theyd be able to lift.

The sticks were covered in blood, and the big man was left collapsed on the ground.

Thats when the two children saw Yasushi.

Their eyes had a bestial sharpness to them.

Eek-?!

The children approached him.

The guide knew Yasushi couldnt hear him, but he still went on to explain,

I located some talented children nearby and brought them here for you, Yasushi. I hope you train them well. Prepare a true successor to the One-Flash to kill Liam!

Before they ran away, Yasushi took some food out of his pocket and threw it towards the children.

Catching it, the two instantly began to devour the food like animals.

Looking at their figures, Yasushi went into deep thought,

If I train these two, theyll surely surpass Liam. If they were even able to beat such a big man as they are now, theyll undoubtedly become much stronger.

With that, he called out to the two children.

Confirming this development, the guide headed towards the next signal burning with revenge.

Now then, whos next?

A military re-education facility.

There, Eulisia was taking a course to become successful as a female soldier.

Oh, this woman is?

She was withstanding severe training.

Her eyes were sharp, and her once beautiful hair was shaved off.

She was currently undergoing training to join the special forces.

Covered in mud, she was thrown to the ground by the instructor and yet she still got up.

The guide was impressed by her tenacity.

Is there a reason why she hates Liam so much? What does the voice of her heart say?

There

(Unforgivable. Unforgivable. Unforgivable. Unforgiv)

It was a mantra of pure hatred for Liam.

She was the perfect avenger.

W-wonderful! For one that holds such potential heres a gift from me. To make sure that youre successful, Ill give you my support.

In order to make sure her blade of revenge reached Liam, she Eulisia had to survive.

Although she was just defeated by the instructor before, it wasnt completely one-sided.

The instructor yelled at Eulisia,

I thought you were a woman who could only shake her ass at others, but it looks like the shitty girl has grown up a little!

Sir, yes sir!

And from the voice of Eulisias heart,

(Liam, I swear I will definitely have my revenge on you.)

The guide nodded,

Your pure desire for revenge on Liam is amazing. I will support you from the shadows. I look forward to the day your retribution against him comes to fruition.

As the guide investigated Eulisia, apparently shes been receiving quite the re-education.

It wasnt just any normal training.

In order to advance in the military, she dabbling in various fields.

However, if she continued on like this there was the inevitable demerit of being forced to stay conscripted in the military for an extended period of time.

Even so, Eulisia ignored such things and continued her training.

Everything was for the sake of her revenge against Liam.

With that, the guide could leave this place satisfied.

I hope your revenge will reach Liam someday.

The guide disappeared.

After taking in the two orphans, Yasushi fell into thought.

While watching them sleep in a cheap hotel bed, he was seriously thinking about his self-preservation.

What should I do if the assassination fails?

The two in front of him were surely talented.

But Liam was strong.

In the first place, he was a man who could take a magic trick and turn it into an actual sword skill.

If these two fail the assassination and are slayed itll be my head thatll go flying next.

Hed be lucky if he was just killed.

But his opponent was a nobleman.

He didnt know what kinds of horrible torture would be waiting in store for him if caught.

Thinking about how he could be slowly killed over a long period of time he felt himself trembling in fear.

Therefore, the cowardly Yasushi decided,

I-I know! Ill just stick some random reason behind it. Itll also keep these kids from questioning me. Yes should I tell them that theyll have to challenge their senior pupil with all their strength?

Even if they were killed, he might be able to convince Liam as long as he sends a letter saying You did well afterwards.

Will this work? Well my life is in danger anyways if he isnt killed. Lets just do whatever I can. I have to do this.

For his love of being alive, Yasushi decided to take two children in and teach them the One-Flash.

Fortunately, he already knew how to do so.

He had prior practice through Liam.

The problem is, even if I train them the same way, I dont know what kind of results theyll bring. If I only denounce Liam, they might leak that to him all of my laments. Okay, lets make sure to always praise Liam in front of them.

In contradiction to his praise of Liam, Yasushi would train the children to kill him.

He had no other choice.

Liam had already spread the name of the imaginary sword style of the One-Flash far and wide.

Aristocrats, pirates, and even other martial artists were moving to find that strength.

Even if he ran away, hed surely be hunted down.

Yasushi didnt have the time to be picky with his options.

There was no other choice other than to train the children as fast as possible.

Because he himself was weak.

Okay, Ill give them a letter to deliver in case of failure. If they convey the praises Ive made of Liam properly, the right misunderstandings should occur hopefully. But If possible, I hope they succeed with the first objective.

Yasushi who had taken in new disciples of the One-Flash to assassinate Liam, muttered,

Ill train you to grow up as much as possible so be wary of Liam.

Yasushi had confused himself, and didnt really understand what he was doing anymore.

The military re-education facility.

While many men had run away from the strict training, Eulisia still remained.

All of this was for her revenge against Liam.

She gazed at her reflection in the bathroom.

The beautiful hair that she was so proud of was shaved, and her body had grown more muscles after all the exercise.

Ill improve the quality with the next phase I need to keep a feminine appeal. This body is also a tool necessary for my revenge.

Liam the one man who was completely disinterested in her.

But what was her plan for revenge?

The conclusion Eulisia came to was to aim for the period after Liam had graduated from the military academy and was conscripted into service.

During that period, the army would dispatch a lieutenant to be Liams aide.

Only the elite among the female officers would be chosen.

If she didnt have the appearance, ability, and everything else required, she wouldnt be the one selected.

To reach that position, ordinary results wouldnt be enough.

After all, a large number of female officers that had entered the military actually hailed from the Banfield house.

There were many there who achieved excellent results at the academy and have been specifically groomed to be Liams aide.

If she half-assed things here, she wouldnt even be considered.

With this in mind Eulisia had decided to join the special forces.

After completing this rigorous training, harsh missions involving live-combat would be waiting for her.

If she could somehow complete those as well, shed be practically guaranteed to be Liams lieutenant.

And after that shed get Liam infatuated with her and throw him away this time.

Although she wasnt really abandoned last time, this was a problem of Eulisias pride.

The guides assumption of her goals were wrong.

I will turn things around. For that end, Ill make sure to investigate him thoroughly.

Throughout her rigorous training, her thoughts were always filled with Liam.

Said training was almost finished.

Once it was over, only live battles were waiting for her.

Although she could have just given up and pursued a normal persons happiness, Eulisia only had Liam on her mind.

If I want to entice him this time, first, I need to look into his tastes.

A colleague who saw Eulisia creepily grinning in front of the mirror squealed out in fear.

The guide stood on top of a building in the imperial capital.

Lets continue sowing more seeds! More and more! At least one of them has to eventually reach Liam!

But he had overlooked something.

The couldnt help but feel that way for some reason.

Well until that time, lets just continue to save up power.

Liams gratitude was burning his body even now.

The guide continued to wait for an opportunity to exact his revenge while absorbing the negative emotions of the imperial capital.

What the guide had missed was that there were others who wanted revenge against Liam.

The Berkley family.

The family executives were attending a meeting as holograms in the dimly lit conference room.

All of them were the children of the Berkley familys boss.

Derrick was killed.

To the boss words, the executives started to complain about Derrick.

That bastard lost one of our planetary development devices.

We didnt have any expectations for him anyways.

He even lost our forces. He truly was useless.

The boss had a cat-like creature in his arms it was something that he truly cherished.

My cute son was killed so shut up.

A blue vein had appeared on the boss forehead.

Theres an idiot out there who picked a fight with our family.

Liams face was then projected into the middle of the conference room.

Pirate hunter Liam?

The child prodigy from the fallen Banfield house?

Lets kill him immediately.

As the executives broke out in commontion, the boss swung down his fist with a bang.

The cat-like creature was surprised, but soon settled down after being petted.

Our business has suffered due to this guys pirate hunting for some time now. Ive always wanted to get rid of him, even before this.

In the underworld, a huge bounty was placed on Liams head to gather pirates in hopes of hunting him down.

The fools rushed towards Liam for the prize, but all of them were met with nothing but death.

There was once a time when pirates scrambled towards Liams territory in haste but now none of them were brave enough to challenge him now, this wouldnt change even if the bounty was raised.

Because all the death-defying idiots who had tried so far had been slain before they even encountered Liam himself.

Well be going to war against the Banfield house in the future. Threaten all the nobles who see this as an opportunity and force them to decide whose side theyll take.

The boss decided to increase his allies to defeat Liam.

This in itself showed how dangerous of a threat he saw Liam as.

Father! We can do this even without them!

One of the sons came forward and offered to take care of Liam.

But he was stopped,

Weve already lost Derrick to him. From here on, were not going to waste anymore of our energy on idiotic things.

The boss looked at Liams profile and smiled,

Brat when you pick a fight with the Berkley family, dont think youll be able to walk away scot-free.

In a place Liam wasnt even aware of, the embers of war were spreading.
