Overgeared

“It is a bloodline with no flaws.”

Duke Grenhal was impressed when he examined Queen Irene’s ancestry in detail. He knew that her ancestor was the hero who founded the Eternal Kingdom with the king of the north, Loran, but it was the first time he discovered her family history that had no blemishes for more than 200 years. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that the territories managed by the Steim family prospered in any era and this was unprecedented in history.

“As the generations passed, their combat ability faded, but their integrity hasn’t changed.”

The Steim family could truly be called an example of nobility. Even Duke Grenhal, one of the highest ranking nobles in the empire, felt respect. Duke Grenhal hoped that his descendants would emulate the Steim family.

‘He succeeded his mother’s character and his father’s talent...’

Lord Steim—the only son of Grid would surely be great. He would become a kind and strong king, leading the Overgeared Kingdom well on behalf of his father, who was praised as a god and might one day leave for Heaven. It was a blessing not just for the Overgeared Kingdom, but for the empire who had the Overgeared Kingdom as its main ally.

‘I’m really looking forward to it.’

On the way to the capital of the Overgeared Kingdom, Reinhardt...

A kind smile spread on Duke Grenhal’s face as he recalled the black-haired boy he once saw. He felt happy and reassured at the thought of Prince Lord’s future, who turned 15 years old this year and would slowly blossom his talent. He was immersed in his thoughts when he suddenly woke up. It was because the carriage carrying him stopped in place.

“S-Sir, you should come out and see this.” The senior knight ran to the carriage in a hurry while trembling.

“Hmm.” Duke Grenhal was one of the highest powers in Saharan. This meant he was one of the most powerful people in the West Continent and the most elite army was escorting him. It meant the knights of Duke Grenhal wouldn’t be flustered when encountering a group of bandits.

‘Have unscrupulous forces started to move due to this coming of age ceremony?’

Duke Grenhal opened the door of the carriage as he recalled the forces that were forced to be wary of the Overgeared Kingdom. He didn’t do a stupid thing like look out the window in a situation where he could be shot at by an enemy.

“......?!” Duke Grenhal created a strong defense by raising his aura and stepped out of the carriage, only for his eyes to widen. He was shocked because the person blocking his way was completely unexpected. “Y-Your Majesty!”

Flop!Regardless of the dirt, Grenhal knelt down and kneeled deeply. There was only one person in the world who could make him kneel.

“Get up.”

Empress Basara of the Saharan Empire. Why was she here when she should be in the capital? Basara smiled at Grenhal, who rose with a puzzled expression. “My friend... there is a happy event taking place in my benefactor’s home. How can I not come?”

Originally, he would’ve made a fuss. It was because the emperor didn’t go to events outside. The emperor didn’t even attend the pope’s crowning ceremony.

Saharan was the center of the world and the master of the world was the emperor, so the emperor only listened to reports about what happened outside. The emperor was the one who heard and saw everything in the world without needing to come forward. This might be Lord’s coming of age ceremony, but Grid should personally visit the empire and report to the emperor that it was completed safely. This was the majesty of the emperor expected by the empire.

Going to another kingdom far from home...

The knights gulped. They would worry that Duke Grenhal would once again nag at Basara who was different from the previous emperors.
