Chapter 456: The Naked Emperor (5/5)

****(POV)

This...

There had been so many clues. All had been at the edge of my perception. All things I was somehow remembering now. 

When I started taking action to make everyone's lives better, my people became even more zealous. But they weren't vocal about it at all. They had been extremely low-key. I loved to simply walk around the city, and they treated me as one of them. 

Apparently, they thought I was shy for some reason. There had been lots of misunderstandings between us it seemed. 

I truly had been putting a barrier between me and the world all this time. I had been looking at it all through tinted glasses. All this time I had been a blind fool, really. 

Now, why was I suddenly understanding all this? Well, it was all part of the process. 

In that single instant, I could feel all that energy, the one stemming from their boundless trust in me. For the first time in my life, I was unashamed of who I was. For once there was no barrier between me and my people. 

At that moment the servant was nodding at me while smiling, he had felt my change too. Perhaps I needed to call him by his title of supreme commander of the continent's armies

For once, I truly felt alive. I could feel the warmth of the sun on my skin. I could feel the slight breeze. I could hear the cheers, truly hear them for the first time. 

They were my people. Before them, I stood naked, just a man. Simply a man, nothing else. I could also feel newfound power coursing through my body. I had learned so many secret scriptures in this life of mine. So many that I had lost count. 

There simply was one that was extremely suited for such a moment, one that had activated by itself. Unknowingly, I had done everything to learn the Naked Divine Scripture. I had understood a profound Law of the universe. 

At first, it seemed simple, but it wasn't. It wasn't simply about being naked. It was about being open and truly honest. To be honest with oneself, honest with others, and honest with the world itself. 

This power-up seemed like a miracle at first glance, but I knew it was simply the culmination of it all. It was because of all the elixirs I had consumed, the faith of my people, and my own understanding of a Law. 

Everything had lined up for this very moment. Somehow, my fate had somehow changed from the one of the royal family. I couldn't help but think that their bet had somehow paid off. 

At that very moment, I stopped being the powerless Prince waiting to die. 

That is when I became the Naked emperor, the one and only.

It is also when the bandits felt that something was wrong somehow. But it was too late already. As they went mad and attacked me I simply grabbed and crushed their treasure swords with my bare hands. 

Then, I simply killed the twenty of them. I did it as easily as slaughtering chickens. There was a long silence, then thundering and incredulous cheers. 

My people had no idea what had happened, but they could feel that something was different about me. Since it seemed like a blessing, they didn't question it.

I could hear them thanking the Heaven, to which I simply answer" Screw the Heavens!" That somehow sent them all laughing. 

Afterwardwell I simply returned to my cold uncomfortable throne, except it suddenly didn't feel as cold or as uncomfortable. 

There was a whole month of celebration, but that was only because I told them to make it short. For once, I was happy. I was ready to face our opponents, I was ready to protect my people. I was ready for it all, or so I thought. 

Turns out I wasn't ready at all. The apocalypse soon happened. The very fabric of reality itself got compromised. The mana, the profound energy, and the little divine energy there still was all started gushing out of the Earth realm directly into oblivion. 

This forced all the true powerhouses at the time to go into exile or perish. That included me with my newfound power. I carefully designed a plan to bypass this restriction. It would have allowed me to remain with my people but then the God of Order learned of it. 

All my planning instantly went to shit. I had to fight the avatar of the damn God of Order. He was going to kill me too, but I figured out something. I separated my soul into three parts and sent two far away with random teleportation. To truly kill me he'd need to destroy all three parts at once. 

That would have been easy in normal circumstances for him, but reality itself was shattering. He had to hurry up before he himself disappeared completely. Because of the lack of time he only could seal me. 

I thought my two other soul-fragments would be fine and could come back afterward to unseal my main body but there was a hiccup. As the God of Order was leaving this world something happened, he faced an old enemy of his. 

Since he was going to die anyway, he figured out he may as well go out with a bang. That asshole literally cast a seal on the entire Earth realm using his last breath. That made it so I had a main body and two soul fragments, but all of them sealed. 

The more it went and the more my own existence was about to get reduced to nothingness. There is only so long I can survive in such a state. But then I got lucky. A fragment of mine recently got freed. 

How long will it take for it to find me, I ignore. Will it even manage to? What if it gets destroyed before? I can only hope for the best. 

Still, I can feel it. It is spreading the law of nakedness right about now, or trying to at least. As long as this soul fragment manages to spread these teaching it should power up real fast. 

I only have one worry. I'm not sure if I properly transmitted the complete inheritance to it. After all, it was created in a rush. Well, I'll know soon enough I guess.

Somewhere in a city with lots of water, a naked fool is going around angering people by asking them vehemently to abolish clothes!
