Chapter 35: Nichia Alliance.
Chapter 35: Nichia Alliance.
I then found you. Kenya-kun.
Rhode looks straight at Kenya.
Me?
Ah, your manipulation skills, surpassing even the head of the Holy Knights of my home country, Ive never seen a knight as strong as you. I never thought you could screw me over 100 to 1. Hey, Sieg.
Yes, I thought Goken was already one of the strongest in the world. White Lotus of the Asian Union, Thor of the EU. Hes comparable to those who are now called the strongest in the world, compared to Gillian, of course, and the real Holy Knight Chiefs, the Three Great Masters, who are different from me, the retired one. No, rather he is more than that.
Right so, Kenya-kun.
Rhode stands up and offers his right hand to Kenya.
Will you be my knight and help me become emperor. To make the world a better place.
You have the ambition and the power to do so. So will you hold my hand once more?
Rhodes invitation.
I had decided from the moment we met at the training school.
From the day I saw that spectacle, I had decided to bring Kenya into Rhodes life.
And today I saw him active in the resistance.
Then I had decided that my aim was Japanese, and that he was the only one I could see who had the high ambition to risk his life.
Kenyas willingness to put his life on the line for a cause is a talent that is hard to find.
Kenya looked at his right hand.
He could not hold his hand immediately.
Does that hand really make the world better?
I swear, I will make the world a peaceful place.
Kenya looks into his eyes.
Rhode returns straightforwardly.
Why is it that I believe in him?
In these fiery eyes, I feel a strong, passionate will.
Bloody hands, youre heavy.
That hand that Rhode said that day was a hand covered in blood.
Kenya understands what that means.
To hold this hand is to be part of the worlds largest country.
To hold this hand means to be involved in the battle to decide its ruler.
I cant imagine the blood that will flow.
Perhaps it may flow in an amount that is incomparable to todays.

It is a battle to decide the pinnacle of this world.
Promise me one thing.
I will listen.
Kenya stands up.
Then he looks at Reina.
Reina, and Kaguya, who is fighting as a resistance fighter. Promise me that you will make the world a place where both of them can live happily. If you promise that. I will hold your hand.
Reina, and Kaguya, who fights in the resistance. Promise me that you will make the world a place where both of you can live happily. If you promise that. I will hold your hand. Hold that hand.
Huh, I see. So those two people, thats why youre fighting. I now understand a bit more about you. I get it. I promise you. As the 100th Emperor of the Asgar Empire. With my life on the line.
Hearing his reply, Kenya held his hand tightly.
If you betray me, I will kill you.
Ah, then you can kill me.
Huh. You really are a strange guy, even though youre a member of the royal family.
Ha. I dont want to be told by you, Irregular.
The two laugh at each other, their hands tied tightly together.
Kenya and Rhode tie hands.
Two geniuses who met on the battlefield today.
Tactics and strategy, macro and micro.
Two of the most powerful who have reached the ultimate in their field join hands.
Rhodes aim is to become emperor.
To change the world.
We dont know why Rhode goes to such lengths to change the world.
But strangely enough, Kenya could easily believe Rhodes words.
And Kenyas purpose is to protect the two heroines.
Rhode promised to make the world a place where they could live happily on the condition that he becomes emperor.
Then he would stop world war, which might not happen in the first place.
So.
The deal is done, Rhode. You and I are an equal alliance.
Oh, of course we are. We are equal contractors, Kenya.
Kenya has an equal relationship with Rhode.
They called each other by name, as if they were friends, and they were indeed equals.
And then there is Sieg, Reina, and Tanaka Issei, wasnt it? What about you guys? Are you going to cooperate with us?
I owe you a debt of gratitude for your help in EU. And of course, there is no one more qualified to be emperor than you, so please dont let the world bleed any more .
Sieg kneels and lowers his head.
What that means.
Thank you, Sieg.
Sieg means that he is now following Rhode.
I dont even know about Lord Odin. But if Dad chooses to go that way. Besides, .
Reina looks straight at Kenya.
When I thought I was going to lose you today, I was very afraid of that. I dont really know what that is. So I want to know why. Next to you.
Reina
Reina also joined the camp.
And the last one.
The developer of Kenyas KOG, Takemikazuchi.
He is a worldwide acknowledged expert in his field, which enables him to provide technical support.
All eyes are on Tanaka Issei.
Personally, I agree with that opinion. I also want to support Kenya-kun. But there is only one thing for us Japanese to cooperate. There is one thing we must achieve.
I want you to provide support for the KOG, as well as its technical capabilities. So I would like to add you to our camp, let me ask you. What do you want?
What we want hasnt changed. What we used to try to protect and what we are trying to get back now, nothing has changed.
Tanaka looks straight at Rhode and says.
Return Japan, this country that was taken away from us. Give it back to us!
Tanaka has only one wish, and that is why he became a member of the resistance.
A war in which he lost his only loved one.
The flames of revenge will never be extinguished until the day he sees Japan breaking free itself from the shackles of Asgar Empire, back to what was taken from him in that war.
The flame of revenge of the Japanese people in this world will never be extinguished.
That is why Tanaka has one wish.
Japanese independence.
Rhode ponders, his mind calculating a number of obstacles.
But Kenyas mouth opens.
Thats a condition for making Kaguya happy, isnt it? Rhode. Without loss or gain.
Hearing this, Rhode raises his hand to say, Oh dear.
This is a very hard condition to accept, I see. Fine, when I become emperor, I will grant this country independence.
Really!
Yes, I swear on my life.
Then I will cooperate with you.
Tanaka and Rhode also joined hands.
Then I declare an alliance of the five of us here today, Rhode Asgad, Goken Kenya, Sieg Sylphid, Reina Sylphid and Tanaka Issei.
Yes, lets call it the Nichia Alliance, the Japanese Day and the Asgards A. Its cheesy, but thats how alliances are named.
The Nichia Alliance is hereby formed.
No papers, no witnesses, no one, an alliance in the middle of the night, but an alliance to change the way the world was.
Lets decide the details tomorrow. Its already midnight today. Even I am sleepy, so you who have been on the battlefield must be even more so, and this makes it impossible to make normal decisions.
The day then ends once and for all.
Oh, and Kenya-kun, Tanaka-kun.
Hm?
Ive made you guys dead, so please keep that in mind.
What?
It cant be helped, Tanaka-kun, your name has been exposed, and Kenya is going to be my knight from now on.
I understand about Tanaka-san, but why me too?
Kenya starts to ask when he doesnt understand Rhodes statement.
Huh, think more about it. Kenya, if you can only think on the battlefield, youll lose your footing.
Youve become very foul-mouthed, havent you?
Haha, this is my true self, think of it as a sign of trust. This is what I call a relationship of equals.
something is different about you.
The Rhode, who has no one he can call a friend, is lonely because of his status.
Kenya himself was a loner in his previous world, so he doesnt really understand what it feels like to be a friend.
I think I had friends when I was in primary school tho.
The two of them dont really understand what friends are.
But why, I wonder, is it because they were friends who were aiming for each others lives?
Without any reservation, there are no walls between them.
Like old friends, they speak to each other without any reserve.
First of all, you will work as an Asgar Empire person from today, it is more convenient for you as my knight.
Thats understood.
For that reason, Ill declare you dead, having been a member of the military for a while. I dont mind if you suddenly disappear, but its easier and more deceptive if youre dead, isnt it? There are a lot of other things
I see. If youll take care of the procedure, I understand. No problem.
Oh, and Sieg. Can you do me a favor?
Yes, of course.
Pretend that Kenya is your illegitimate son.
What?
