"Why do we need to act alone and hide our identity?" The Golden Emperor silently looked at his summoner, reportedly a mad Viscount from over a thousand years later.
He wasn't as outrageous as the rumors claid. He just got lucky in his youth to beco part of the great expedition, and through so small sches, he succeeded in winning against the demon race, which seed to have already started infighting at that ti.
The living conditions in his youth were too harsh. He still rembered that his tribe had only 81 people, all living off a type of fungus, and he never expected to beco part of the great expedition.
As for why his group won, he thought about it and realized that the demon race back then seed to implode on its own. They fought amongst themselves, almost to the point of tearing each other apart, and he managed to win in the chaos.
The infighting was so severe that even the simplest stratagem could have unimaginable effects.
In the end, with the assistance of his heroic spirit, he successfully unified the victorious "Demon Realm" and beca the human emperor.
This is the story of the founding emperor of the 1300-year-old Empire. It wasn't that grand. He rembered that when he first unified the lands, the vast continent of the Demon Realm had only tens of thousands of people.
And now, the sa continent is ho to over a billion people.
He rely managed to unify the lands. The true successes were achieved by his second son and the successive generations' efforts in establishing the Empire.
When he died, the entire Empire was still just hanging on by a thread.
As a summoned heroic spirit to this world, this emperor inexplicably received countless mories, including stories like how barren lands suddenly yielded crops after the emperor's visit, terrifying demon emperors among the enemy's spirits, and the tale of him using a stone to kill one.
I am not, I did not, don't make things up…
In summary, after various outrageous rumors surrounded this man, he inexplicably beca the strongest heroic spirit in history.
He always felt inadequate in talent, so he desperately cultivated his descendants. Even now, he couldn't understand the sches of this mad Viscount.
"Your Majesty, I want to ask you sothing." The mystic scholar, truly the mad Viscount, looked seriously at the emperor and asked, "During the great expedition, did the enemy exhibit any anomalies?"
"How do you know?" The Golden Emperor imdiately responded.
"Indeed, there's a second question. I seem to have discovered an issue with the Empire's reproduction. I want to ask, did the demon race you once faced encounter the sa problem?" the mad Viscount said.
This question left the middle-aged man dumbfounded. Instead of answering, he thought for a mont and said, "I don't know. When you say there's a problem with reproduction, what do you an?"
"The Empire lost the ability to reproduce at so unknown generation," the mad Viscount directly shared his information.
"How is that possible? Wait, you're soone from a hundred years ago. If the Empire lost the ability to reproduce, why does it still flourish with vitality?" The weary middle-aged man imdiately retorted.
"This is the question I'm searching for. As I've told you, aside from being a mystic scholar, I've always been a biologist. When I was researching genetic tracing and preparing to summon you in my lifeti, I discovered this issue," the mad Viscount said with a smile as he continued, "I found that the cellular similarity of descendants over 20 generations was over 99.999% identical to their ancestors."
"Hm?" The emperor was stunned. He couldn't understand.
The mad Viscount didn't explain further, continuing, "I initially thought the samples were mistaken, or perhaps the genetic similarity between these two mbers of the royal family was coincidentally nearly identical, so I went on to abduct another royal descendant..."
"Guess what? The genes were almost exactly the sa!" the mad Viscount exclaid.
Though the emperor couldn't comprehend this string of words, he at least understood one thing: "So, my descendants' genes are almost identical to mine?"
"Yes, even after dozens of generations and the royal family experienced large-scale changes, bloodline replacent, and marriages with nobles unrelated to your ancestry, miraculously, the genes didn't change at all. I thought the royal family was a special case, so I even abducted the young master of a duke's house, as well as descendants many generations removed..."
"The genes were identical! Quite amazing, isn't it?" the mad Viscount continued.
"I even tried letting them reproduce between males and females, only there were no pregnancies, but mysteriously a complete embryo appeared in the female's body."
"Can you imagine the impact on my research at the ti? There was no conception, but an embryo appeared!"
At this point, the emperor realized there really seed to be a problem, but he didn't understand why the issue arose, only hearing that not only had the mad Viscount abducted many mbers of the royal family, but also children from the duke's house and conducted such experints...
No wonder he faced ruin and was eliminated during his lifeti; what he did was enough to hang a thousand tis.
The mad Viscount seed unfazed by the emperor's hesitant expression and continued, "This miraculous phenonon left baffled at the ti. It's a pity that before I formally began research, I was caught, and in the frantic escape, I committed suicide out of guilt."
