Chapter 1100
Chapter 1100
Thinking back to the past, he and the former king of the kingdom were actually distant cousins, having studied together in an academy.
In those days, the relationship between the two countries was in a honeymoon period, and intermarriage was a very common occurrence.
He vividly remembered how uncomfortable and restless he felt when he first laid eyes on his cousin, who was the first princess of the Sia Kingdom at that time.
The first crown prince of the empire, the first prince of the kingdom, and the first princess were actually very good friends in private.
And he had a secret crush on his cousin, and he planned to propose to her after he became the emperor of the empire.
He was the emperor of the empire, and she was the princess of the kingdom. They were considered cousins according to the family tree, and their identities and status matched perfectly. The most important thing was that he fell in love with her at first sight.
Love at first sight is truly amazing.
In order to become an emperor worthy of her, he studied hard and often invited his cousins to his house as guests. It was a beautiful time that is deeply cherished.
Little did he know, before he could propose, the two of them got married and left him, the future emperor of the empire, feeling lost and confused.
But you two are actually blood-related siblings!
What happened to the good old brother-in-law? How did he become the enemy who stole his own bride?
No wonder, from the beginning he felt that this pair of siblings were really too close. It turns out that this pair is not just ordinary childhood friends, but something more!
The emperor, who had dog food smeared on his face, finally made up his mind to forget about this failed first love and started studying hard. He aspired to become the greatest emperor in the history of the empire.
He married the empress, who came from a powerful noble family, and several other concubines. He ignored the objections of the senate and provided resources to alchemists and scholars to develop a terrifying killing machine called the magic armor. This paved the way for the empire to expand and conquer.
The invasion of Sia Kingdom was due to the fact that in their treasury, there were essential resources for making magic armor and titled machine cores, treasures that alchemists had been longing for.
When he heard the news of the former king and queen's death in battle, he was momentarily lost and saddened. However, as the emperor, he was no longer the young man who would lose himself in love at first sight.
The emperor carried the future of the empire, the power of a new era called "science."
He started this era, created powerful weapons like never before, and is even about to change the whole world.
For the Emperor of Leviathan Empire, the love affairs of his children are a thing of the past.
The current him is accumulating strength and even sacrifices his most outstanding daughter, Roland, by sending her as a hostage to the Holy Silver Dragon Knight Order of the kingdom.
Even though Ain has mastered the power of the nuclear explosion forbidden spell, the Emperor still believes that the direction of the times has not changed.
Human life is ultimately limited.
Even the golden ancestors only lived for thousands of years. Even if Ain possesses the power of the nuclear explosion forbidden spell, how long can he protect the kingdom?
As long as Ain is dealt with, the kingdom will still be a prize for the empire.
Even if this generation cannot get rid of Ain, the next generation, and the generation after that, the Emperor will ultimately let the power of science triumph over everything.
Moreover, the power of a nuclear explosion is not necessarily something exclusive to Ain.
In the historical records, the first mention of nuclear explosions was during the end of the Divine Era by an alchemy warlock called Field.
He didn't know how his niece, Ain, mastered the ultimate forbidden spell of nuclear explosions, but since she could control it, the Leviathan Empire, with its entire scientific system, might also be able to master this power.
Humans, after all, have shorter lifespans and are not like the mythical dragons.
The Leviathan Empire, with its scientific system, will definitely have the last laugh. The emperor firmly believed in this.
Unless Ain can surpass the limits of being a hero-ranked individual and become an eternal immortal legend which is impossible.
This era of weakened magic tides is destined to belong to the age of science!
If there was even a slight possibility, the mages of the past would not have despaired and ended their traditions, becoming alchemy warlocks and scholars who no longer relied on magic.
Who would have thought that the Sia Kingdom had such a hidden card, and his lovely niece, Ain, possessed this ability.
How could something like genetic inheritance across generations appear in this era!
Celestial bloodline, giving this Prince Ashe one hundred years, is he another dragon knight?
"Call Asmid, Poincar, come here!" Rubbing his forehead, Ludwig XII decides to listen to his advisors once again, the core members of the Academy of Sciences.
Asmid, the most outstanding alchemical warlock of this era, the spiritual leader of the ancient magician guild Artisan Faction, inheriting the alchemical research techniques of the divine era magicians, and the director of the magic armor construction project.
Poincar, the most outstanding mathematician of this era, the leader of the ancient magician guild Theoretical Faction, inheriting the divine era magicians' understanding of the world and their deconstruction spells, and the initiator of the magic armor construction project.
These two people are the leaders of the alchemical warlocks and scholars respectively, and are also the right and left hands of Ludwig XII.
After the complete end of the divine era, when the world entered the period of magic tide decline, the magicians who were once only one step away from reaching the stars fell to the ground.
Some of them escaped into the sunless Underground Cemetery, attempting to endure the period of magic decline through self-sealing, waiting for the magic-rich period to reappear in an unknown era.
The other group lost their ability to cast spells but remained on the surface, splitting into two factions.
One faction became alchemical warlocks through their research and manufacturing of various sophisticated machinery, while the other faction began conducting purely theoretical research that doesn't require magical support, becoming scholars.
Both factions, having lost their magical powers, were once persecuted by the knights who still possessed great strength.
Knights, who used to be servants and protectors of the mages, unexpectedly became the main protagonists in an era of weakened magic, vying for dominance.
A few divine era bloodline warlocks, who relied on the power of their bloodlines to cast spells, gathered together and chose the only well-preserved divine era tower as their holy land. They established Sia Kingdom.
Once powerful wizards who held high positions, they were completely cast down from their lofty status and could no longer rely on the power of their bloodline to perform magic. They also lost the ability to tap into the forces of the world. They were persecuted to the point where their lineage was almost wiped out.
In the end, it was Ludwig the First who took in these desperate alchemist warlocks and scholars because Ludwig himself was a rebel, not accepting being the first knight of the Sia Kingdom warlock bloodline lineage.
Ludwig I at that time probably didn't imagine that the current Leviathan Empire would embark on a development path called "science".
