And then, it has been a pertinacious 3 months. I have finally succeeded in world domination!
……I personally also think that it is absurd to label a mere 3 months as「pertinacious」.
In reality, it was not that big a deal. It was a dynasty of slaves who suddenly rose to the top in the world who rules from the Old Eastern Empire territory to the desert region so they readily capitulated when I recognize their religious freedom and self-government rights for domestic affairs in addition to displaying my strength through a single battle.
Although there was a flood of small countries after that, they readily came under my control without even fighting after an avalanche occurred right when I attacked several countries and placed them under my control.
At the southern side of that, there was an empire that believes in a religion that integrated with a complicated hierarchy cla.s.s system, but the Emperor became my va.s.sal so, like the other countries, I did not lay my hands on their religion and cla.s.s system.
The hardest nut to crack was the large empire at the eastern tip of the continent. A large army of five hundred thousand, and in addition to that, it was amazing that they dispatched a troop of five thousand consisting of just magicians, but the Emperor"s spirit broke when I pulverise it with one blast of my paralysis magic.
Even so, because the Emperor says that his honour does not allow him to come under my rule, we pledge ourselves as sworn brothers with me as the older brother and the Emperor as the younger brother,「It has nothing to do with a ruler"s decree, a younger brother obeys an older brother"s 『Advice』」is how it ended up being beautified as.
Majority of the people in the vicinity of the large empire obeys the large empire"s intention so they came under my rule as it is.
It seems that the large empire"s influence does not really reach the nomadic people that were inhabiting the northern gra.s.sland region but I readily presided as their ruler after I directly display my strength to them.
Furthermore, it seems the large empire"s influence does not reach the island country that is even further east than the empire as well, the existence of the king in this island country like a figurehead with no actual power and the retainer under the king who is holding the actual power……in essence, the ruler of the military regime……he came under my rule under the guise of him swearing loyalty to both the king and me.
By the way, this island country apparently resembles how Suzuna"s homeland looked in the past, she said「It was apparently something like this a very long time ago」.
Furthermore, a number of various countries on the continent"s western-side were building colonies on the southern continent"s southern-side and the new continent that is across the ocean on the west, and because their homeland settled under my rule, they became my possessions as it is.
It seems those colonies" residents, they have disputes with the continent"s native people respectively so I prohibited disputes, forbid further colonisations, and repatriated the residents who have migrated. Naturally, I compensated their losses.
In addition to that, this time, I negotiated with the native people and made them recognize my supremacy in exchange for recognizing their religious freedom and autonomy. These guys as well, I easily presided as the ruler after I displayed my strength to them. As for the countries on the southern side of the new continent, circ.u.mstances have them firmly believe that I am the legendary G.o.d that came across the eastern ocean(It is the western ocean from the first kingdom"s perspective but it is the east for them) so they recognized my rule extremely friendlily.
Besides that, I also headed to and negotiated with the native people of the island country at the northern end, the island country across the eastern ocean from the initial continent"s eastern coast, the small continents and so forth, and made them recognize my rule. In addition, exactly as I had heard from Suzuna, I arrived on the new continent even if I crossed the initial continent"s eastern ocean. I have experienced first-hand the fact that this vast land is of a spherical shape.
Thus, I accomplished world domination. I have become the most influential person who effectively rules the world!
My first longstanding desire of,「Becoming somebody remarkable」, is achieved with this. It is a given. No way anyone who is more remarkable than the ruler of the world exists.
And then, as a commemoration, I elevated myself even higher from「Demon King」and labelled myself「Great Demon King」. Although it is self-professed, it is the ruler of the world who labelled it himself so there is also n.o.body who criticises it.
However, Suzuna who heard that made a very complicated expression so I tried asking her the reason.
"Uーn, it"s true that you accomplished world domination after all so I can understand you being called the『Great Demon King』 but you know……"
After faltering there, she turned around, looked around my office, and continued speaking.
"These, telephone-like things that are around, they were created in reference to my world"s phone and they are devices to contact each and every country, right?"
"Umu, indeed"
It is as Suzuna has said, there are a lot of communication-use magic tool that is made by referencing the「Telephone」 being set up in my office. A corresponding magic tool is set up in the various countries" royal palaces and ruler"s buildings, I have made it so that each and every country can get in touch with me.
I actually wanted to make it a magic tool that is similar to the telephone called a "smartphone" that Suzuna possesses, a magic tool that is able to contact all the countries with just one magic tool, but I still cannot create a magic tool that is that advanced. So, I created one magic tool for each country for the sake of contacting each and every country. As there are more than a hundred countries and independent tribes around the world, there also needs to be more than a hundred Telephone Call Magic Tool.
