"Looks like this is the end." I muttered.
"My lord we have won the battle." I heard Brynhild's voice.
"Seems like we finished it earlier than we have expected. We should go inside the city now." I said to her.
"As my lord wish." Brynhild bowed.
=============
"Goddess-sama... Goddesss-sama is here."
"I am glad to be able to see her with my own eyes. Finally this old man can die happily."
"Thank you for saving us, Goddess-sama."
"Just look at Goddess-sama's hair. She is so pretty."
"She is a Goddess after all."
"Finally, we can be relieved. Goddess-sama will save us all."
"Goddess-sama, please look after us."
"Goddess-sama, Congratulation."
Goddess-sama, Congratulation."
Goddess-sama, Congratulation."
Goddess-sama, Congratulation."
I can hear a lot of people cheering me up. I can totally understand that they are really happy.
While walking toward the Castle, I can see some soldiers lying on the ground. Tara was waiting for me in front of the castle gate.
She bowed and said," My lord, we have captured all of those traitors."
"Where are they?" I asked her.
"We have already captured them and put them in a house." She said to me.
"Brynhild, bring your unit with you and go to that house. You guys will interrogate them. Those who were cruel to others, I want to punished them and those who were innocent, you can just release them." I ordered her.
"Yes, your Majesty. "Saying that, Brynhild left with her unit. A bone person was leading them up.
"Yahallow, Serene. I missed you so much." Saying that Alice jumped onto me.
"What are you doing, Alice?" I asked her.
"Ah, moo. It was a boring battle. I wanted to have a good battle but they are really weak. Hey, why not we fight? I think I might be able to have fun if it is you." She said to me.
"Please, stop your foolishness. My lord has a lot of things to do." Saying that Tara stopped her.
While talking we entered the castle and Alice asked me," Hey, when will you execute those bastards?"
"I will do it tomorrow. So, Valkyrie unit has to work hard today." I replied to her.
"I guess, I understand. So, now it's time to announce our victory over this city. We also have vision to free all the cities from those bad rulers. So, we have to build a strong Empire from the scratch. Selene will be the Empress." Alice proposed.
"Empire is kinda... " I was about to say something but Tara stopped me.
"I think what Alice-san said was true too. My lord, you have already became the hope of the people. So, you have to become a ruler. We have to create a strong empire which should be the symbol of Justice. To make our wish come true, you have to become a true leader. We are with you. " Tara said to me.
"Which one do you prefer most? People calling you goddess or Empress?" Alice asked.
"I guess Empress." I replied.
"Then become one. You have to announce our victory right now and while doing that, just announce that you will become an empress of the newly build empire." Alice told me.
"Okay, I will do as you say. "Saying that I sighed.
After that, I went inside a hall room like place and command my koala unit to take a video of me. After recording the video, I published it to the whole Chandra Kingdom.

Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests, and fellow citizens of the newly liberated Samatot city,
Today, we gather here in the aftermath of a momentous triumph—an occasion that marks the dawning of a new era of peace, unity, and prosperity. I stand before you as a humble servant, but also as the bearer of great news and even greater aspirations. I am Serene, an angel who has fought tirelessly alongside you, and today, I am proud to declare the liberation of Samatot city within the Chandra Kingdom!
For too long, our beloved city has been shrouded in the darkness of oppression and discord. The struggle against injustice has been arduous, but our indomitable spirit and unwavering resolve have prevailed. Today, we stand victorious, but let it be known that this victory is not solely mine. It belongs to each and every one of you who courageously fought alongside me, driven by a shared vision of a better future.
As we celebrate this triumph, we must recognize that the true essence of victory lies not in conquest, but in the potential for transformation. Today, I stand before you not as a conqueror, but as a harbinger of change. I pledge to build an empire where peace, harmony, and justice will reign supreme—a realm where every citizen can live without fear, with their heads held high.
One of the foremost concerns that burden our people is the weight of excessive taxation. Today, I make a solemn promise to alleviate this burden and create an environment that nurtures growth and prosperity for all. Lowering taxes will not only stimulate economic activity but also empower every citizen, enabling them to forge their own destinies. Together, we shall forge an empire that thrives on fairness and equality, where opportunities are not confined to the privileged few, but are open to all.
Moreover, my dear compatriots, I am acutely aware of the dire food crisis that has plagued our lands for far too long. Hunger and deprivation have cast a dark shadow upon our lives, gnawing at our hopes and dreams. But today, I stand here to assure you that this shall be the dawn of a new beginning. I vow to address this crisis with unwavering determination, implementing comprehensive strategies to ensure that no citizen of Samatot goes to bed hungry.
We shall embark upon initiatives to boost agricultural productivity, fostering sustainable practices that not only guarantee abundant harvests but also safeguard our precious environment for future generations. In this empire of ours, no child shall cry out in hunger, and no parent shall bear the anguish of being unable to feed their loved ones.
Together, we will build a society where joy, peace, and harmony are not mere elusive dreams but tangible realities. Every citizen, regardless of their background or station in life, will have the opportunity to pursue their aspirations, nurture their talents, and contribute to the betterment of our empire.
My dear friends, today, we celebrate not only the liberation of Samatot city, but the liberation of our souls from the chains of tyranny and despair. Let us embrace this moment with humility, gratitude, and a deep sense of responsibility. For the true measure of our success lies not in the battles we have won, but in the lives we have touched and the hearts we have healed.
In conclusion, I call upon each and every one of you to join me in this noble endeavor. Let us march forward together, hand in hand, as we build an empire founded on love, compassion, and justice. Together, we shall leave
a lasting legacy, where every citizen can live happily, where our children can dream fearlessly, and where the spirit of unity prevails. The time for change is now, and together, we shall forge a future worthy of our dreams.
Thank you, and may the light of hope forever guide our path.
