Chapter 600
In the palace of the First Magic Empire, the First Magic Empire Emperor Arthur the Lionheart, who was wearing a golden armor and a jeweled crown, was accepting the congratulations of his ministers and descendants.
Today is his 1800th birthday. He was born in an ordinary farmer's family 1800 years ago. At that time, the Bright Continent was in chaos, and magicians were superior to ordinary people and enjoyed supreme privileges.
Unwilling to be an ordinary person for a lifetime, he resolutely embarked on the road of resisting the privileges of magicians. Later, with the help of the goddess of elements, he rose strongly and finally established a huge empire where ordinary people and magicians coexisted.
For 1800 years, he has been conscientious and diligent in government affairs every day. He never dared to slack off. He has only married two wives and had four children in his 1800 years of reign. His previous wife died hundreds of years ago, and now he has only one queen.
Today was his 1800th birthday, but he was sitting on the throne with no interest at all. Ever since he felt the inexplicable sense of crisis, his heart has been shrouded in a thick haze.
"What kind of power would make me fall into depravity?"
Just as he thought of this, a voice suddenly came from outside the palace.
"Ainz Ooal Gown, the son of Duke Ooal Gown, comes to present a gift to His Majesty."
Hearing this voice, both Arthur sitting on the throne and the princes and nobles standing in the hall were surprised.
"Ainz Ooal Gown? Isn't that the stupid son of Duke Ooal Gown?"
"Yes, it's him. I heard that he damaged his brain while practicing magic a few months ago, and it hasn't recovered yet."
"Why would this idiot suddenly come to celebrate His Majesty's birthday?"
Just as everyone showed puzzled expressions, a middle-aged blond man wearing a gorgeous dress and holding a golden scepter couldn't help but frowned.
And he is Ainz Ooal Gown's father, Aragorn Ooal Gown, the Duke of the Empire and also a great mage.
"Ainz? Is his madness cured?"
With such doubts, Aragorn immediately said to Arthur on the throne:
"Your Majesty, please allow my poor child to enter the palace."
Hearing Aragorn's words, Arthur nodded without thinking, and then said in a deep voice:
"Let Ainz Ooal Gown come in."
Not long after, Ainz, dressed in standard aristocratic clothes, slowly walked into the hall holding a wooden box in his hand.
After walking to the middle of the hall, he bowed to Arthur on the throne.
"Ainz Ooal Gown pays homage to His Majesty."
After seeing Ainz in person, Arthur first looked him up and down, and then asked with a little doubt:
"Is your madness really cured?"
Ainz smiled slightly when he heard this.
"It is indeed healed, but I was not crazy before, but I accidentally summoned my soul to another world when performing summoning magic. I stayed in that world for more than half a year. Yesterday, I finally summoned my soul back through reverse summoning."
When these words came out, everyone present was surprised, and Arthur himself couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
"Oh? There is such a thing, then where did your soul go?"
"To be honest with your majesty, I first went to the abyss, and then went to a place called Tianyuan Continent, where there are houses thousands of meters high, flying cars in the sky, mobile phones that can cross space to chat with others via video, and all kinds of novel things.
There, everyone is equal, everyone has classes, and everyone can enjoy the best things in the world. There is no oppression, no fighting, no war. Children can watch TV at home, and parents can sit in spacious and bright office buildings to work. As long as you are willing to work hard, you can get everything.
The houses there can be blown in by wind and rain , the head of state cannot enter, the water in the toilet there is clean enough to drink, even the lowest goblin can live decently, and women there can do any job that men can do
With just a mobile phone, you can enjoy delicious food and happiness at any time, only need to work 8 hours a day, only need to work five days a week, and the income from one day's work is enough to buy the food and expenses needed for the whole week. You can do what you like to do and work, and there is the most precious thing in the world, that is freedom. "
When Ainz said this, the huge hall suddenly became silent, and all the princes and nobles looked at him in confusion, even Arthur on the throne.
After a long while, everyone suddenly couldn't help laughing.
All the princes and nobles seemed to have heard some big joke, laughing and pounding their thighs, even Ainz's father Aragorn did the same.
"Hahaha, he is really crazy, he can actually say such a thing."
"Yeah, how could there be such a place in this world? If there is, it can only be a paradise where gods live."
"What a stupid child, what a ridiculous joke, our First Magic Empire is already the most equal place in the world, but it can't be like what he said."
"Houses thousands of meters high, cars flying in the sky, this child is seriously ill."
"No oppression, no struggle, how is this possible."
"Duke Urz, take your stupid son back quickly, don't let him stay here and embarrass himself."
"Since he is a fool, please forgive his rudeness, Your Majesty."
Hearing the ridicule of the crowd, Aragorn's face turned pale, and it was obvious that he didn't believe his son.
Just when Aragorn was about to forcibly take Ainz out of the hall, Arthur, who was sitting on the throne, showed an interested expression.
"Ainz, is the place called Tianyuan Continent you mentioned really that beautiful?"
"Of course, with my limited language, I can't present all the beauty of Tianyuan Continent. It is heaven, and anyone who goes there doesn't want to leave. There is a saying in Tianyuan Continent that it is better to have a bed in Tianyuan than a house in the fairyland. By the way, the fairyland is equivalent to the divine world." Ainz explained proudly, as if Tianyuan Continent was his hometown.
In fact, he did think so. The Bright Continent gave birth to his body, the Tianyuan Continent sublimated his soul, and the Tianyuan Continent was his spiritual home. Less than two days after returning, he had already had a serious withdrawal reaction. He never smoked, but he smoked all night last night, and his bones were smoked yellow.
"Words are not enough. Do you have any evidence to prove that you really went to the so-called Tianyuan Continent? Do you have any evidence to prove that the Tianyuan Continent is really as beautiful as you said?" At this time, Arthur, who was sitting on the throne, spoke again.
As soon as he finished asking this question, Ainz nodded.
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty."
"This box contains a treasure I brought back from the Tianyuan Continent. Your Majesty only needs to see this treasure to judge whether what I said is true."
As he said this, Ainz raised the wooden box in his hand high.
Looking at the wooden box raised by Ainz, Arthur's eyes suddenly showed a strong curiosity.
After winking at a servant beside him, the servant walked over to Ainz, took the box and handed it to Arthur.
After just a slight hesitation, Arthur reached out to the box.
At the same time, Gandalf and Michelle, who were far away in the pure white tower and the sacred cathedral, immediately felt something.
Pope of Light Michelle immediately said with horror:
"No! Don't open it, don't open the magic box! It contains the source of all evil! It is the devil that tempts people to fall!"
But it was too late, Arthur opened the box casually, revealing a mobile phone lying in the box.
