Clouds converged over the imperial capital, and the unfamiliar voice echoed through the streets.

People put down their work, stopped, and looked up at the sky.

Without saying a word, they walked out of their homes and stood quietly in the street, staring blankly at the dim sky.

At the top of the high staircase, the emperor wore a crown on his head, his robe reaching to the ground, and he held a scepter, and his two fingers gently rubbed against the cane representing the 'imperial power'.

The grip of the staff was embellished with a ring that shone with a faint glow of magic, and for a moment he could take in everything under the stairs, and the horror, panic, disbelief, and ...... on the faces of the men Resentment!

Suddenly, the wind and clouds froze, Caesar XIII calmed down his emotions, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, and said loudly: "As a human being, you should have the corresponding rights, that is, 'human rights'!"

"The right to life, the right to freedom of life, the right to economic autonomy, etc., these should be the rights that human beings are born with, and no one can arbitrarily take them away!"

Like a pebble thrown into a lake, Caesar XIII's words made waves in the silent imperial capital.

As the lead speaker, Duke Ken frowned lightly at such a time, even though he had already guessed what this majesty wanted to do, but at this time, he still felt a little irritated.

But he controlled his emotions well, and when he turned his head, he saw that the other nobles were similar to him.

None of them chose to speak for the petty nobles......

Listening to the voice that echoed in the imperial capital, the civilians couldn't help but be dumbfounded.

"It's Your Majesty, it's Your Majesty......"

Such voices began to appear in the crowd, and people whispered to each other about the message.

Someone had already recognized it, and it was the voice of their current emperor, Caesar XIII!

What exactly is 'human rights'? What exactly is the 'right to life'? What is the 'right to freedom of life'? What is 'economic autonomy'?!

Vaguely, people had already guessed what they were, but at this point they began to wonder if their ears had heard something wrong.

At such a time, no one dared to open their mouths to stop Caesar XIII from continuing!

The petty nobles and the rich merchants were already agitated, but no one dared to speak at such a time, because it would be self-defeating.

They set their eyes on the great nobles, which was their last hope, but for the great nobles, they could not provoke Caesar XIII in such a matter.

Looking at the panicked crowd, Caesar XIII scepter paused, and snorted coldly: "The honor of nobles has always come from themselves, and your own bloodline will not bring you anything other than identity!"

Hearing this, Duke Ken was stunned.

Wait, what does he want to say?!

Duke Ken clenched his fists suddenly, and his mood suddenly became irritable.

He seemed to be able to guess what Caesar XIII was going to say after that—so he had to stop Caesar XIII!

"Your Majesty!"

Duke Ken and the other two let out a loud cry at the same time, but he could not prevent Caesar XIII from blurting out the words:

"All men are created equal!"

At this moment, the air froze.

All the minor nobles were stunned, and the big nobles had hideous faces, completely losing their 'elegant' demeanor.

Immediately, the storm surged!

The noise and scolding of the little nobles resounded in the sky, and Alisa subconsciously held her fiancé's arm tightly, turned her head in disbelief, and asked, "Calvin, Your Majesty...... What does that mean?"

Calvin had a helpless smile on his face, and after hearing Elisa's question, he sneered and said, "Don't you understand?"

"How can commoners and nobles be the same?" asked Alyssa, frowning, and asked in a low voice.

Calvin rubbed his face and sighed, "But I'm from a commoner's background, are we the same?"

Is it the same? Isn't it the same?

Calvin was born as a commoner but became an aristocratic ......

Many nobles were also born commoners, or their ancestors were born commoners......

"But the nobles...... It's not like civilians......" Elisa let out a wail.

Her three views had taken a severe blow, and now her brain was in disarray, making it difficult for her to organize her words to refute Calvin's words.

Calvin hooked the corners of his mouth and asked with a smile, "What's the difference?"

In the midst of the chaotic noise, suddenly a clear and audible applause gradually appeared.

Caesar XIII's eyes flickered with a cold light, and after hearing those applause, he couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth.

The great nobles looked back suddenly, with a secret annoyance.

The applause overpowered the noise of the crowd and drew everyone's attention.

The bishops from the Church of Radiance, the Church of the Passion, and the Church of Justice, with kind smiles, applauded with emotion for the wonderful declaration made before Caesar XIII.

"Ladies and gentlemen, is there anything you have to say?" asked Caesar XIII with a sneer, to the nobles.

“...... No, no, Your Majesty. ”

Duke Ken looked at the emperor coldly, until now, even if they wanted to say something more, it was useless!

Alyssa Ken looked at her father in disbelief, not only him, but also the other nobles who had said nothing about it.

Neither Duke Anbar, who looked reckless, nor Duke Balomyan, who had always disliked being manipulated, did not say anything about that sentence!

Why?

This question appeared in the minds of many people - they could not believe that the great nobles, who were equivalent to the 'leaders' of the nobility, did not say a word about it!

From the silence of the great nobles, Caesar XIII already knew their attitude.

He's a little better!

"The glory of the nobility comes from itself, not from the bloodline, from the identity! What the ancestors have passed down is only the blood and the identity - no glory! no glory! no glory!"

Crazy! Crazy!

Caesar XIII he is crazy!

Almost everyone looked at Caesar XIII like a madman, at the emperor with the scepter held alof, and they felt that he had gone mad!

"To be born as a human being is to respect the rights and interests of human beings!"

In the face of those sights, Caesar XIII chose to respond indifferently: "I declare that the Ogordon Empire will abolish 'slavery' with immediate effect! All slaves will be free, and you can re-employ them, but you must not arbitrarily deprive them of their lives, property, and freedom! From now on, there will be no slaves in the empire, only free people! You must no longer wantonly buy and sell human beings, and if you are discovered, you will be stripped of your title and put in prison to await trial!"

Now that the transportation network has been initially established, and the technology is developing rapidly, Caesar XIII has the confidence to say this.

"But there are still objections?"

The words fell, as if the curtain was drawn on the speech.

Many people want to ask questions and scold in their hearts, but when they look from afar and see the indifferent face of Caesar XIII, they don't have the courage in their hearts.

Even from such a distance, they could feel Caesar XIII's decision.

They turned their attention to the nobles for help, but the nobles still didn't say a word with gloomy faces.

Because it is in their best interest only for those 'laborers' who are trapped in the fields and mines to be liberated!

They are the biggest factory owners in the empire!

So they let it go, and even helped Caesar XIII to complete this speech, but they didn't expect that this time they would lift a stone and hit themselves in the foot.

The people gathered in the square soon dispersed, and they did not want to stay here for a moment.

Alyssa also wants to leave with her father, but this time, Calvin stops her - because she is his fiancée!

He could already guess the expressions of those nobles after they left the Eternal Day Palace and found out that His Majesty's speech was facing the entire imperial capital.

As soon as they learned of His Majesty's salary, they would inevitably be furious.

And at this time, the time of choice will also come.

"Do you choose to be on your father's side, or on your majesty's side and ours?"

Alyssa looked at her fiancé in despair, his devilish smile reflected in her pupils. (https:)
