The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 347 Empire\'s Declaration

Every endeavor, activity, and significant event halted in deference to this auspicious occasion.

This day marked a grand celebration: the official proclamation of the empire\'s establishment.

Upon the vast screens adorning the plaza, a live broadcast from the Imperial Castle awaited the appearance of the Emperor.

Soon, amidst the gaze of countless people, emerged the Supreme Emperor of the Curse Continent.

"Greetings, esteemed citizens of the Moonlight Empire," Maximus began, his voice commanding attention and respect.

"As the Supreme Emperor of this continent, I extend my salutations to you all."

His greeting stirred a commotion, with shouts and cheers echoing throughout the empire.

Yet, after a momentary pause, Maximus surveyed his subjects with a solemn demeanor.

"The Moonlight Empire has ascended from humble origins, evolving from a fledgling state to the undisputed ruler of this vast land,"

"Countless sacrifices and hardships..."

"Blood and tears..."

"The Moonlight Empire and it\'s people stayed strong, never gave up, faught to their last drop."

"Under our unrelenting effort, the Moonlight Empire stood the top of our continent."

"May you, the people of the Moonlight Empire, always bear this in mind,"

"Persist without faltering, hesitate not, and fear nothing."

"Regardless of the trials we face, know that the Moonlight Empire stands steadfastly behind you, and I, as your Emperor, stand as your unwavering beacon."

As Maximus paused, the populace, moved by his words, silently clenched their fists, etching his words to their very soul.

From that day forth, they internalized his words, embodying fearlessness in the face of adversaries yet to come.

Be it fending off dimensional invasions or expanding their dominion across realms.

They vowed to remember that an empire stood united behind them, guided by a mighty Emperor who would lead them to triumph.

"I hereby declare the Moonlight Empire and its people shall be the rightful stewards of this cursed continent from this day forth!"

"Together, we shall transform this blighted land into the paradise it was destined to be."

....

After Maximus finished his speech, he quickly returned to his wives as they prepared for the wedding a few weeks later.

Although the wedding would only invite family and close friends, there would still be thousands of people.

Furthermore, the wedding was only the first part; the honeymoon was what they were preparing for.

A year of schedule was already densely packed that Maximus had a headache just looking at it.

...

While Maximus was busy with his wives.

The silent continental array scattered across the empire started to work.

The Empire was officially opened to the outside world.

Goldfiend Vanderbilt, the richest apex sovereign in existence, inconspicuously exited one of the continental teleportation array.

"Is this the Moonlight Empire?" Goldfiend muttered, looking around.

As the owner and leader of the Etherium Gold Chamber of Commerce, the creator of the Etherium Virtual Stock Market, and finally, the richest person in the world.

It was his duty to investigate any emerging market where he could further his wealth.

No matter how backward or dangerous a place was, as long as there was money to be made, Goldfiend Vanderbilt dared to come.

Even the abyss was a territory that he had painstakingly opened.

Unfortunately, a greedy brat stole his light and all his hardwork.

Lux Shadowcrest, this cursed brat, was like a devil who knew the ways of business since birth.

Even as the richest person in the world, Goldfiend only had admiration in his eyes.

If not for the protection of Rakasha, he would have long killed that brat.

Furthermore, the goddess of luck, the little girl who stole his money, was still that little devil\'s sister.

If he wanted to subdue that lucky little girl to be his apprentice, he couldn\'t harm any of her family.

Anyway in business, it\'s not the pioneer or the genius who earns the most money.

It\'s the richest, the most powerful, and the most connected who get the most.

In the Abyss stock market alone, he received 30 percent of the profit share, more than Lux.

This is also why he didn\'t dare to kill Lux.

Such a money-making genius, Goldfiend just needed to follow, and he could earn endless wealth without doing anything.

Looking at the empire that gave birth to such prodigies, Goldfiend smiled with expectation.

As he tried to spread his domain to scan the place, a hint of warning flashed past him.

Looking ahead, a hidden weapon was pointed before him.

Although Goldfiend felt that it wouldn\'t harm him, the threat still made him stop what he was doing.

"A dimensional weapon? Tsk, this Maximus is really cautious."

As the richest man alive, Goldfined had bought many weapons from Maximus, so he still knew the division of weapons.

Feeling multiple dimensional weapons stationed in the empire, he could only admire the richness of the Moonlight Empire.

While Goldfiend was in a daze, a man came up to him.

"This gentleman, welcome to the Moonlight Empire!"

"Hmm," Goldiend just nodded, not showing his majestic aura.

Goldfiend was merely here to investigate the economic potential of the Moonlight Empire, not to cause a scene.

"This gentleman, before going further in the empire, one would need to register their identity."

"Oh? Lead the way." He nodded in understanding.

Soon after filling out various information, the guide gave him a token.

"Just like the one in the arcane continent," Goldfiend muttered in amusement.

Identification tokens were only prevalent in the arcane continent because it was the only continent that could afford them and manage them properly.

In other continents, it\'s either too chaotic or too expensive to equip all of its inhabitants.

Thus, seeing such a token, his interest in the Moonlight Empire went up a notch.

As Goldfiend explored the place, there was doubt on his face.

Instead of a token, there was a panel in front of the people.

Based on his induction, such a panel was made of a multitude of various frequencies, from elements to law.

"What is that?" Goldfiend stopped a pedestrian and asked.

"Huh? Are you from another continent?" The man asked.

After all, besides infants who didn\'t have minds of their own, everyone in the empire knew of the Empire system.

"Yes, I just came here."

"Oh, that\'s right, the empire is open to the outside world now," the man nodded as he remembered.

"This is the Empire system; the explanation should be in the Moonlight forum."

"Empire system? Moonlight forum?"

"It\'s in your token; you should look at it; there should be a beginner\'s guide in it."

"Beginner\'s guide? Yes, thank you for your help."

After finding a place to sit down, Goldfiend took out his token and carefully studied it.

Initially, he thought it was a mere token with identical functions to the one in the arcane continent.

From identification, banking, contracts, and such.

However, it seems that it was much more advanced, like those special tokens.

Opening the token, he injected a trace of mana.

[Vander Riech:

Personal Information...

Bank...

City Map...

Moonlight Forum...]

"This also has a map? And it\'s quite detailed, too!" Goldfiend muttered in amazement.

In the Arcane Continent, only people who have special tokens could access these advanced functions.

As for the token given for free, it has mere basic functions.

Looking at the bird\'s-eye view of the city, that he could zoom in and zoom out.

He was amazed that such a backward empire was capable of such a thing.

Opening the Moonlight Forum, Goldfiend quickly found the beginner\'s guide.

[Beginner\'s Guide:

This is a guidebook created by the chief of foreign affairs for visitors.

1. Don\'t disrespect the emperor in any way; any form of insult to the emperor is punishable by the most cruel death.

2. Any form of harm or insult to the empire would get you fined or imprisoned, depending on the degree.

3...]

Looking at the thousands of guides written in it, Goldfiend\'s lips twitched.

This isn\'t much of a guide; instead, it\'s a brief overview of the Moonlight Empire law.

Furthermore, it\'s so strict that Goldfiend feels like he was in the City of Arcana.

Goldfiend already imagined many individuals from other continents being fined or punished in the coming months.

Fortunately, the Moonlight Empire seemed to have enough force to enforce such rules so that it wouldn\'t be too chaotic.

However, what interested him more was the empire system.

Such a tiny piece of marvel that could do miracles was the first he saw in the world.

The mana bank, the shadow apps, and the calculation speed.

If this thing were spread in the Arcane Continent, it might make its efficiency multiply to a huge degree.

Such an enormous upgrade would make the Arcane Continent the leader of the world, surpassing its competitors by a large degree.

Seeing such a piece of marvel in front of him, Goldfiend\'s senses were tingling as he imagine the earth-shaking changes that were about to happen in the Etherium realm.

"Maximus Shadowcrest, I can\'t wait to see you..."
