On the other hand, in the emperor’s office was the emperor himself sitting on a chair and several men and women in front of him.

The emperor stood up and handed a certificate-like paper to them.

「It’s a letter of attorney. Though only for a limited time, I will give you the highest authority in the knight order and the government」

Such a will was written on the letter of attorney, and the magic circle on it was emitting light.

「I have divided the prime minister, high ranking bureaucrats and knight commander. They shouldn’t be able to make a move for a while」

The emperor squinted his eyes and continued.

「You must take control of the government and the knight order immediately. Go!」

「By your will!」

They stood up and rushed to the door.

Among them are someone with pilot badges on their chests. These include a young man with short black hair, and a young woman with stern features.

Everyone except him rushed out of the room.

There’s not even a single guard. Right now, he needs every person he can move.

(What’s left is to wait whether this will bring fortune or misfortune)

Whether the practitioners obey him as their emperor, or obey the prime minister and the knight commander. That will divide the result.

(Faced with the letter of attorney when their figureheads aren’t around… Speaking by the law, this should make them obey me but…)

The legislative system that he had thoroughly studied.

He found out that the letter of attorney by the emperor is ranked highest.

However, in the end, it is human who operates the law. If you have a superior in front of you, then you would of course abide their orders instead.

(…What happens happens, I guess)

He sat down on the throne and glanced at the cane in his right hand.

It’s called the emperor’s staff and the symbol of authority next to the imperial seal.

While looking at its tip that glows magically, a cynical smile appeared on the edge of his mouth.

(It’s quite useful after all)

The emperor commented on the cane’s ability.

Opening, closing, and even locking the doors that were set up inside the palace. It was able to do all of that.

Right now, all of the corridors have been separated into fragments and the rooms have been locked.

This should make the prime minister, bureaucrats, and the knight commander stuck inside the palace, unable to make a move.

(The emperor who controls the entire Empire. However, in reality, the power I have only about this much)

Doors in the corridor that were placed at a certain interval, the entrances and exits of the main rooms. That was the extent to which the emperor’s power extends.

An urge to laugh welled up inside him.

The previous generation, which was his father, never used this power.

Other than the imperial family, they wouldn’t even know that the emperor’s cane has such an ability.

(Father too, must have wondered how to use this power)

The urge to laugh he had tried to erase reappeared, and he laughed aloud.

He waited for the reports from his subordinates while laughing. Every single one of them he had desperately gathered.

It was a little later that he and his subordinates were successful in their attempts and signaled that they had the control of the Empire.

Later, he used the Imperial Knights to wipe out the old regime.

「Your Majesty doesn’t have to go to the battlefield. Please leave everything to us, pilots」

His subordinates desperately tried to dissuade him, but he didn’t listen.

It is a matter of course for the emperor to go to the battlefield in a battle with the old regime.

「I am certainly not a pilot. And of course a Knight isn’t something I could ride either」

After he said that, he pointed at the flag which represents the Imperial court behind him.

「But, there is a power that comes along with the emperor. As long as I’m with you, the enemy is always just a group of bandits」

And then, with a bewitching smile, he asked his subordinate.

「How is it? Are you still saying that I won’t be of use?」

The subordinate who gave in, shook his head and headed to the battlefield along with the presence of the emperor who should never be attacked.

In actuality, the power of “Imperial Knights led by the emperor” was enormous.

The Empire where the system itself became disordered and began creaking.

However, the emperor’s authority hadn’t diminished yet. It even becomes more prominent the further it goes into the rural areas.

At first, the nobles were enthusiastic, but they couldn’t gather the morale before the legitimate emperor. It rapidly collapsed starting from the rural area the moment the inferiority in numbers became visible.

「See? I became a little bit of help, didn’t I?」

The subordinates have no choice but to prostrate in front of their lord who has a smile pasted on his face.

And like that, in a short period of time, the emperor managed to revive the powerful absolute monarchy like it was once in the past.

The trace of the major country of setting sun that became the talk of other country leaders was no longer visible.

There was only the figure of a powerful country that was aiming for the unification of the Ost continent.

「The Emperor who achieve continental unification and gained the largest territory」

Those words surely sound sweet for history lovers.

The subordinates, who have understood the emperor’s ambitions, were expanding the Empire’s border as if competing with each other.

And twenty years have passed since the present emperor has been crowned.

The empire was definitely in the midst of its rise.

***

And now, in the country that was at the receiving ends of the Empire’s feverish gaze the most.

The red-light district, in the royal capital, Tauro entered a luxurious building.

「I apologize for the trouble I made the other day」

I lowered my head to the concierge of Cionne. It was about the case when herbivore mechanic rampaged.

「No no, Tauro-sama wasn’t expecting it to turn out that way either, right? Please don’t worry about it」

The concierge said softly while laughing.

「Besides, to give this kind of set menu idea… Thanks to it, we became even more popular now」

There were no lies in that smile. In reality, I think their customer rate has indeed risen.

The time was a few days ago.

When I came and bought some confectionaries to apologize about the case with herbivore mechanic, they consulted me.

Due to the effects of the war, everyone has tightened their purse’s string, so the number of customers and the unit price have dropped. Do you have any good ideas? Is what they asked me.

(Increasing the number of customers while also increasing the average spending per customer…)

This is quite a difficult problem.

(To achieve that, we need to add an extra value where the customers feel they need to spend their money)

When I’m brooding over it, a certain dish that I wanted forever but haven’t got it yet floated in my head.

(That’s it!)

After organizing it in my head for a while, I told the concierge what I thought.

「Put to women for one customer. Also, one of them is always from the sideline, is it?」

The concierge continued with a difficult look.

「Certainly, that way the average cost per customer will rise. However, would there really be a customer that’s interested to order it?」

It’s a negative reaction.

But I strongly declared.

「Please don’t worry. It’s not just a set. It’s a menu that would make people to try it at least once」

「What do you mean?」

「The name of this menu is… Oyakodon」

Upon hearing those words, the concierge showed an expression as if he had been struck by lightning.

His eyes and mouth were wide open as he was unable to utter a word.

「It is a unique menu in Cionne where young sidelines were their selling points. The mother of such young women should still be young and beautiful」

I grinned.

The concierge swallowed his saliva.

「Certainly… It’s certainly a menu that someone would want to try. This might sell well… No, it will definitely sell!」

It’s as clear as day that he was fully interested.

「Thank you very much! We will immediately proceed with the preparations!」

I’m happy that my idea was accepted, but I wonder what they mean by immediately?

When I asked it, the answer was simple.

「That’s because some of the mothers is sitting on the platform」

Oh my, so there were some mother and daughter working in the same store

「But still, it’s quite a blind spot. What a blunder. …I have to confirm this immediately」

The concierge immediately spoke to women on the sideline and what seems to be their mother on the platform

And then, he looked back at me as he made a very attractive proposal.

「Tauro-sama, would you please give it a try?」

Unfortunately, although it’s heartbreaking I have no choice but to decline.

My job to subjugate monsters awaits.

「That is very unfortunate indeed. Please, by all means, come here whenever you have some free time」

Saying that, the concierge loosened his collar while taking off his jacket. He beckoned a young concierge and left the lobby to him.

It seems that he’s going to have a taste himself and make some adjustments.

(How nice….)

I left the store while my heart was spilling tears of blood.

***

A few days have gone by since then.

And today. Since I have some free time, I immediately headed to the store.

「Well then, let me explain. First, dear customers have to choose from the sidelines」

I nodded at his words and looked at the women sitting on the chair by the wall with their thin legs crossed.

「The ones with a badge are those who possible to come with the『Oyakodon』set」

It was unexpectedly a lot. Nearly half of them have a colorful shining badge.

「There are three types of badges, gold, silver, and bronze, each of which has a different price」

The gold ones were expensive and bronze were cheap.

「What is the difference between them?」

「Yes. Gold comes with a mother who is an active player on the platform at our shop. I can guarantee their abilities」

I listened to the explanation that follows.

Silver was a retired person who once worked in the store.

And bronze was an amateur who had no experience at all.

Looking at it, the number of gold and bronze is few, and most are silver.

「Then, the bronze please」

My eyes are gleaming.

The eyes of the concierge who were staring back at me also reflected light just as strong.

「……As expected, Tauro-sama understood」

At those words, I replied.

「I am honored to receive your compliment」

I had to wait for a little while since they had to call her mother in the house nearby.

Except for the gold badge, they don’t seem to work in the store.

During that time, the concierge spoke to me.

「About this Oyakodon but, is it okay to give Tauro-sama’s name as the inventor」

I thought about it for a while. There should be no problem.

But it’s quite embarrassing if they use the name Tauro as it is.

「I don’t mind. But if you can, please use the name Dr.Slime instead」

The concierge seemed to be happy upon hearing that.

「I’m more than thankful if we could use that name」

Is that so?

「Yes, if it’s a menu that Dr.Slime came up with, the attention level it’ll receive will be on a different level」

It’s the same with the case of me being one of the matchless people in the red-light district, it seems my name has become quite well-known before I realized it.

(Well, whatever)

It’s bound to become like this if I do as I please.

It can’t be helped at this point of time.

That’s where a young girl came over from the sideline with quick steps.

The concierge looked at her way.

「It seems the preparation for her mother has completed. Well then, please enjoy your yourself」

My hand was grabbed by the sideline girl that came to pick me up and we headed to the second floor.
