Episode 640
It’s been roughly sorted out.
I confessed and received the things that happened on the Eastern Continent and the improvement in my relationship with Cell.
It’s really organized.
But as the saying goes, the end is just the beginning.
It’s the same now.
The end is just the beginning.
Jack said.
“son.”
“Yes, father.”
“Should I officially begin my activities as the Crown Prince now?”
Daniel also had something to say.
“Before that, there’s one thing I need to make clear.”
“What is that?”
“When are you going to step down?”
Jack’s eyes widened. Not only Jack, but Charlotte and Valentine, who were watching from the kitchen, also widened their eyes.
“Are you a little embarrassed by this question?”
“Oh, but not a little, but a lot.”
Jack smiles. The two men sit across from each other at the table, looking into each other’s eyes.
Daniel to know Jack’s true feelings.
Jack also wants to know Daniel’s true feelings.
They know each other well.
“It’s embarrassing, but I can’t help but answer.”
Jack turned his gaze towards Valentine. He looked slightly apologetic towards Valentine, who had a look of pity on her face, but soon smiled gently and continued speaking.
“There are several problems in the Western Continent.”
“Is that so?”
“Honestly, you would know because you remember everything. The history that is being written from now on is a history that never existed at any point in the past. It’s like the butterfly effect that occurred when you walked the path of defeat.”
Jack turned his head and looked at Daniel.
“Thanos said he wanted to retire.”
It was a bit out of the blue.
“Retirement, you say?”
“Yeah. Do you remember when you were promoted to the position of Chief of the Supply Bureau?”
“Yes. I am. The 4th time, Year 28 of the Milos calendar.”
“And when was the longest?”
“It is the 12th year of the Milos calendar, year 40.”

“Until that time, Thanos had never once wanted to retire. Remember?”
“Yes, I will.”
“When you fought Thanos 1:1 on the Eastern Continent, Thanos said that it was time to retire now.”
Daniel was silent for a moment.
It’s definitely changed.
“He is the guardian of the Milos Empire, but you know that the position of guardian is actually a meaningless position.”
“… … .”
“The reason Thanos is important is because he’s currently in charge of the Dojo. As you know, the Dojo is divided right now.”
“Isn’t that what your father intended?”
“It was intentional. And Thanos knows what I’m thinking. Ron, the previous master of the Dojo, laid the foundation for the Dojo, and Thanos, the current master of the Dojo, is the one who weeds out the evil elements. Son.”
“Yes, father.”
“The Conduits are an organization that supports the Milos Empire. They are everywhere and nowhere in the world. They are the eyes and ears of the Emperor.”
“… … .”
“What this means is that you have to make the Taoist temple completely your power to gain real power. Of course, you have something to say. Why can’t you make the Cheonma Sect like the Taoist temple?”
Jack smiled softly.
“It’s possible. It’s possible, but it’s too inefficient.”
“Is that so?”
“Why? Does your son think differently?”
“… … Honestly, it’s not that different.”
The Taoist sect that has been comprised of only those loyal to the emperor for decades and the Cheonma Singyo sect that was suddenly led by a leader are clearly fundamentally different.
“I’m not saying that we should abandon the Cheonma Singyo. I’m saying that we should completely separate the two continents.”
“Are you talking about separation?”
“I want to entrust you with the task of organizing the Taoist temples of the Western Continent. If the Taoist temples become completely under your power, you will be able to play with all the information of the Western Continent. In other words, you will have no shortage of the right to sit on the throne of the Emperor.”
Jack’s words were simple.
“You organize the Taoist temples of the Western Continent. And make the Taoist temples yours. Then I will ascend to the Zen position.”
Daniel was silent for a moment.
“father.”
“Yes, son.”
“Just clean up the Taoist temple, and I will give you the throne. Do you think that is right?”
“Why? This time, my son’s thoughts are different?”
“Yes, it’s different.”
Jack looked interested.

“What’s different? I’d like to hear it.”
“The Eastern Continent is currently underdeveloped as a whole.”
“That’s right.”

“I want to rebuild the Eastern Continent.”
Jack scratched his chin.
Jack wasn’t stupid. He quickly figured out what Daniel was trying to say.
“Should I abdicate after rebuilding the Eastern Continent first?”
“yes.”
Jack turned his head again and looked at Valentine. His expression was still pained.
“Honey, my son wants to postpone our retirement. What do you think?”
“Why are you asking me that? When you always think and decide by yourself.”
“Because you are the person I love.”
At those words, Valentine’s lips twitched.
Jack said with a smile. Jack certainly smiles a lot.
“Relax. You won’t have to make any decisions on your own anymore.”
“… … If you say so, then what difference would it make if I delayed my retirement a little more? My son wants that. Then.”
“Should I listen?”
Valentine nodded. Jack looked at Daniel again.
“Okay. Let’s do as my son says. As the king of the Eastern Continent, rebuild the Eastern Continent. Then, ascend to this position. But.”
But the next thing was important.
“Then this place will be the place where the King of the Eastern Continent and the Emperor of the Empire will converse?”
“yes.”
“Then I will speak to you as the King of the Eastern Continent, rather than as your son. May I call you the East King?”
“I don’t mind, Your Majesty.”
“Okay, King of the East. I have something to ask you. Don’t you think I’m giving in too much?”
“I’m listening.”
“Then it should be fair, right? I’ll set a condition on my side. You have to organize the conduit yourself.”
“… … You’re telling me to do it by myself… … ?”
“Do it alone, without the help of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Was it the Great Guardian Law? That kid named Yeongwol, he’s really smart. Do it without his help. Without Thanos’s help, Ron’s help, Yuseolha’s help, Yang Bul-hwi’s help. Without the help of everything you’ve built up on the Eastern Continent, do it alone.”
This means.
“From today onwards, the title of Guardian will be abolished. And Thanos will be considered to have gone on vacation.”
Daniel listened to Jack’s story quietly.
“Don’t the people of the Eastern Continent know that you are the Crown Prince yet?”
“Yes. I don’t know.”
“Then it will be simple. You will be transferred from the Eastern Continent Inspectorate to the position of an officer of the Taoist Temple. Do you understand what I mean now?”
“yes.”
“First, go to the Eastern Continent and take care of some pending work, then come to the Western Continent. Can you give me about a week to spare?”
“That’s enough.”

“Once this is over, I will officially proclaim you the King of the Eastern Continent.”
Daniel nodded.
“Then let’s finish eating.”
“Yes, father.”
“Honey, Charlotte, come here too. Let’s eat together. It’s been a while.”
So a time was set for everyone to eat together.
Daniel felt it.
The job of organizing the pipes.
That this would be my last time on the Western Continent.
* * *
After returning to the Western Continent, I immediately gathered all the members of the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Of course, Thanos was no exception.
Just one person.
Everyone except the Master gathered at the Eastern Continent’s Heavenly Castle Inspection Office.
At the gathering with them, I told them about the conversation I had with my father.
We didn’t talk about time regression or anything like that, my father wanted to handle the affairs of the Eastern Continent with the power of the Eastern Continent alone, and now I’m going back to the Western Continent. After saying this, he looked at Thanos.
“His Majesty has announced that from today onwards the position of Guardian will be abolished.”
“Oh, is that so?”
Thanos surprisingly didn’t take it seriously.
From the beginning, the position of Guardian was just a formality, as everyone knew.
A Guardian is the next most powerful person in the Western Continent, after the Emperor, who carries out the Emperor’s special orders under the autonomy granted by the Emperor.
It was right to get rid of it. It was meaningless.
I heard that Thanos had originally suggested that the Guardian position be eliminated, so he seemed to accept it easily.
But I guess the next thing you said was a little hard to understand.
“And now, you are going on vacation.”
“Are you on vacation?”
“Yes. I heard you’ve been asking for it for a while now, right?”
“That’s true, but that vacation is now… … .”
Thanos must be embarrassed. It’s true that he asked for a vacation. That’s a fact.
The question is timing.
Why now of all times?
“There are things that have not been taken care of inside the building.”
“I was just about to tell you that story.”
“yes?”
Said it right away.

“His Majesty has entrusted me with the work of that convent.”
The meaning of these words was simple.
Yeongwol, who had been silent, asked quietly.
“Are you going back to the Western Continent?”
“Yes, he told me to become an official of the Taoist temple.”
“… … .”
He looked at Yeongwol, who had a speechless expression, and asked.
“Why is your expression like that?”
“… … I don’t understand.”
“Which one?”
“Your Majesty has almost perfectly handled the affairs of the Eastern Continent. It is no different from already ruling the Eastern Continent. The crime rate of the decimal point that the Central Inspection Office presented? It is strange that it cannot be maintained. It is not a basic achievement, but in history, except for His Majesty the current Emperor, there will probably never be an instance of such an achievement in the future, and there has never been one before. It is right to give him a reward, but rather than a reward, he is being told to become a general official instead of a government official. It is very unfair.”
“What if that’s not unfair?”
Yeongwol blinked for a moment.
Yeongwol is not stupid. He is definitely smart.
“… … Are you really planning to live off of ‘Melon’ just this once?”
He nodded.
To be precise.
“They said that once I finish this, I will be proclaimed king of the Eastern Continent.”
This is definitely a big deal.
There are no kings in the Empire of Milos. There are those who act as kings, but they are not kings.
Becoming a king officially is definitely a different thing.
This is something that has never happened before in the history of the Milos Empire, and this one step will greatly decorate future history.
Perhaps it could become solidified into a system.
One emperor, one king.
And the one who sits on the throne is the crown prince, or one who has received full recognition from the emperor.
I looked around quietly. No one said anything, as if they were deep in thought.
He broke the silence with a small voice.
“I heard you are abdicating.”
“yes?”
Everyone, including Thanos, jumped up from their seats.
“Sit down. Don’t overdo it.”
“… … .”
“I will become the emperor of the Milos Empire after rebuilding the Eastern Continent.”
“… … Speaking of reconstruction… … .”
“I plan to make the Eastern Continent a sanctuary for unmanned beings.”

I just knocked on the table.
“We will actively accept the civilization of the Western Continent and revise the martial arts records of the Eastern Continent.”
“If you say reorganization… … .”
“There are too many names of the dead. I will erase them all and rewrite them systematically. Those with high ranks will be treated accordingly and given important responsibilities. All the collapsed buildings will be rebuilt, and I plan to gather more martial arts forces toward the canal. Yeongwol.”
“… … Yes, Master.”
“You make all the plans. Make a proper plan and report it.”
Yeongwol blinks. You want me to do all that? That’s the expression on his face.
“You can do it. Don’t underestimate your own potential. And I’m thinking of putting a new person in the vice-chairman’s seat. Of all people, he didn’t show up for this meeting.”
Of course, that person is the master.
I slowly got up from my seat.
“Everyone knows that there is discord in the Dojo. Whether you know anything or not, don’t report it to me. I have to handle this alone.”
I looked around and stopped at Thanos.
“How about spending your vacation in the Eastern Continent?”
“Your Majesty, this is my first break in almost ten years… … .”
“There is more to see in the Eastern Continent than you might think. There are many tourist attractions. Since you’re here, why don’t you take a break? Take a break like that.”
“Can you help with the work of the Cheonmasin Church as well?”
“Yes. Is it difficult?”
“That’s fine. But when Your Majesty tells me to go on vacation, does that mean he’s accepting ‘that request’ I’ve been asking for? Do you know for sure what that is, Young Master?”
“Yes, I know.”
Thanos wants to retire.
“Then, this will be my last job.”
“Thank you for your hard work.”
“Haha, you have suffered more than me, Master. But why are you speaking to me in a respectful tone? You used to be so humble.”
“Isn’t the situation different? Do you want to lower your voice?”
“Well… … I don’t care either way. Do whatever you want, Your Highness.”
“Okay, while you’re here, why don’t you help out with the work of the Cheonmasin Church? I’ll give you a generous reward.”
“… … .”
“why?”
“No, really. You look so much like Your Majesty.”
“He’s my son, so of course he should resemble me.”
I looked around again. As if declaring something, I spoke.
“The work on the Western Continent won’t take long. I plan to finish it all within a month, or at most within a month. So until then, everyone, take care.”
Yeongwol was the first to stand up. Everyone followed her and stood up. Yang Bul-hwi, who had been quietly silent, was no exception.
Everyone took the lottery ticket at the same time.
“Your name-!”

I left the place and went straight to the Dragon’s Canyon.
As before, a man appears first.
This is the Black Dragon Gentoo.
Oh, one thing was different.
That’s his vibe.
If it had a very sharp vibe before, it now had a very soft vibe.
“I have been waiting for you, Your Majesty.”
“……your majesty?”
“Cell-nim told me to treat you like a lord. And.”
“and?”
“Aren’t you the one who will become the emperor in the future?”
“That’s right.”
Gentua said with a smile.
“Please wait. Just keep going up.”
He nodded and walked away.
The walking steps were light.
There is still one more thing left to do, but this one is more important than that.
I kept walking.
I am.
That way, I could see my master waiting for me at the top of Dragon’s Canyon.
“Are you here?”
I ended up laughing.
No words were needed. What more was needed?
I just walked away.
One step at a time.
In an instant, I was right in front of the teacher and kissed him on the lips without hesitation.
The teacher also gets entangled with me.
I took off my clothes. The teacher took off his clothes too.
We made love at the top of Dragon Canyon.
