Holmes the Great Demon

God was creating a legendary tale! First, it needed a bit of faith to create a leader for people; then add some man-eating demons to make people fight. Throw in some love... and a bit of hatred, rebellion, and impulsiveness. Finally, add a well-known protagonist with a slightly scheming personality. Otherwise, it would be boring. D*mn... that's too much! In a small alley on the streets of London, Sherlock slowly emerged from the shadows, carrying a head. Blood dripped from his spine onto the ground. Very well, the murderer had been dealt with. The next challenge was proving that the murderer was indeed the murderer.

Chapter 51 Emperor

The King of the empire...

An empire, of course, needs a king, even in this strange age when the entire population professes faith in the Holy Light and the Vatican's power spans the entire world. The emperor is still an inevitable existence.

This isn't simply a matter of habit, nor is it the result of years of indoctrination by the ruling class.

It's because... people need to live.

Every life inevitably strives for survival, which requires food, resources, spiritual validation, self-awareness, and so on. In plain terms, humanity will inevitably pursue interests as a guideline, and in the process of pursuit, there needs to be conflict. With conflict, there will be groups; with groups, a balancer of interests at the human level is inevitably produced.

And so... the Emperor appears!

It is a societal inevitability that might take on different names and forms in different epochs, but it can never be erased.
