Derik's words were enough to lighten the mood in the room and many appreciated this. The elders had planned on speaking more on this matter so Derik was sent away with a few guards, leading him to the patriarch's cultivation chamber. They walked for a while and during that time, Derik was more focused on Dean's memories. He could remember everything he knew about the tales of the empire how it was formed and what the empire was like.
It is said that the emperor of the Libet empire lost his parents and siblings to invading beast-men who killed his father and raped his mother right before his eyes. He was forced to watch his siblings get murdered and just when it was his turn to die, he awakened his time magic and was able to escape! He wandered the continent alone, searching for more power and even stronger foes and with countless battles and zero defeat, the emperor they know today was born.
