The huge vortex and heavy fog covering the center of the continent were gone. When the view was cleared, the fifth continent appeared to let everyone know that there was a new Kaiser. The Valkyries already shared the news that there was a new Kaiser, and the portals that connected the four continents to the center started to open again.

  All the powerful heroes from the four continents came through the portal to greet the new Kaiser Sungjin. The heroes from the southern continent started to visit Sungjin to celebrate his victory. “The great new Kaiser. Long live the Kaiser under the blessings of the gods.”


  “Seven kings from the east continent are here to praise the new Kaiser.” Seven kings from the east continent bowed down in front of Sungjin, who was sitting on the throne. They never bowed to a living person before, but now they were on their knees in front of Sungjin nine times. It was a traditional ritual of surrender on the east continent.

  They didn’t think it was humiliating or that they needed to seek revenge. That was the absolute power of Kaiser of Valhalla. He was a reincarnation of the legend who held their lives in his hand. They would live only a hundred years and disappear, but the Kaiser was there to rule the world for a thousand years.

  Kaiser was a living God that they couldn’t resist, even if all of them tried to fight against him together. The fact that Sungjin was a level 0 extra from another world didn’t matter anymore.

  “Five Khans from the west continent are here to offer the goblet to the greatest Khan to make our oath to serve you.” Five Khans from the west continent cut their hands to collect their blood in a goblet to offer Sungjin, and other high-level generals and noble heroes lined up to make their oath.

  Sungjin held their lives in his hands; there was no one who could dare think otherwise.

  Sungjin’s front yard was crowded with powerful heroes from all the continents to prove his power and his influence in this world.

  His storage kept filling up with offers from all around the world: jewels, precious stones, silk…… Those were common things. The more precious things were art pieces from history, and the most precious things were the artifacts that were the legends of each continent.

  The heroes offered artifacts that were their own power and lives to show their absolute obedience to the Kaiser.

  Clerks were busy counting them all. Sungjin briefly calculated the value of the offers. It is not a perfect calculation, but if I convert……

  Apart from art pieces and artifacts, the treasure that could be evaluated as money would be around eight hundred and fifty trillion.

  But that wasn’t all of it.

  That was just the offering he had received until then, and when he calculated the tax, it would be over eight thousand trillion.

  Huh. It is almost twice the United States’. That was when he decided to only collect the tax at a low rate, and nobody would resist, even if he wanted to raise the tax rate. He could use the budget for himself or decide to share it for other means.

  So this is how it feels like to have the world in your hand.

  It was not much different from his experience of taking the continent over, but the different scale gave him a different kind of pleasure. Now, he was able to do whatever he wanted in this world. All the treasures, people and beauties of all the continents were his. Now he could protect the people on other continents as well.

  It was a pleasure that only someone standing on top of the world could feel, and it was a next-level pleasure from having only a few hundred people under one in an office or in the army.

  What would be the first order of the Kaiser?

  * * *

  Everyone was waiting for Sungjin’s order.

  “We will use the same laws as the southern continent. The heroes have no right to abuse the Extras, and I will collect the tax in currency. You will be paid according to your work and your position, and you will not be allowed to collect the tax on your own.”


  The bureaucracy. Centralized authoritarian rule.

  Sungjin made it clear that he was the one who was holding all the power and that heroes couldn’t abuse the extras anymore by any means.

  And Sungjin also built up a separate legal and administrative system so that the system could protect the people.

  Everyone from the southern continent already knew about his style, but now everyone from other continents started to understand the changes. The new Kaiser was not just simply a strong person—he knew how to make the system and manage it.

  I’ve already got the information from the Pandoraern continent…… but…… If we live as we did under this new Kaiser, we will be punished.

  Now it was a different era. If they couldn’t keep up, they would be kicked out.

  But they had no choice but to follow the order from Kaiser.

  “I will take your order,” everyone answered without hesitation.
