Book 2: Chapter 1
Translator Comments: Son-con readers, I know you have been eagerly waiting for this series, and it is back with regular releases. If you haven’t been following Martial King’s Retired Life, you wouldn’t know that I’ve now got ads displayed on the site. I would really appreciate it if you could whitelist my site for that reason. The ads aren’t supposed to be intrusive or diminish your reading experience. However, if they do, just let me know where and how, and I’ll rectify it.
In other news, thanks to changes in Patreon making management slightly easier for me, I can now offer ALL PATRONS early access to chapters and exclusive artwork from the authors, yes, including those in the Peddler tier with $1 monthly donations. How many chapters ahead you’ll have access to depends on your tier. You’ll have immediate access to the early chapters as soon as you join Patreon, there are no gimmicks. To find out more about this, see this post: /posts/yes-its-12099374
“We wish your majesty good health, and may your awe live on forever.”
“You may all rise.”
This is the conference chamber for the empire of humanity.
The chamber was like a large sports field. Wait, no. More like half a sports field. There were two rows of tables, one on each side and on another end was a semi-circular seating area. In the most prestigious place, in other words, where the king is seated is a small room. The design of the small room is very logical. Speaking from inside the room produces a loudspeaker effect, while the voices of those below will be louder.
The throne was much higher than the long tables below. A black veil which kept the sun out was hung in front of the throne. Right at this moment, the empress was sitting on her throne with one leg over the other. The retainers below were only able to see the empress’ military uniform, boots and body. The empress has always been a swordsman, so even after ascending the throne, she continued to scoff at loose and pretty dresses. As such, she’s always dressed in military gear. This also raised the prestige of the army to an all-time high.
“The empress is with us!”
That is what the soldiers believe.
