34. Struggle.

Japan, as a nation, was plunged into grief.

The ‘Ibjjo’ being broadcast live from Gangnam, Seoul, was more than enough to tear apart the pride of the Japanese people, and the fact that the process was being carried out in such a disgusting manner made them even more miserable.

 

 

 

There was a time when articles flooded the media, claiming that Japan might shake the world and even overtake the United States.

There was a time when the vast majority of the world’s top 100 companies were Japanese.

There was a time when selling Tokyo could buy the entire United States.

 

 

 

But those were past glories, and now, beyond the lost 30 years, they were allowing Korean troops to be stationed in their capital, had lost several Dungeon Cities to a single guild, and had even become a colony.

 

 

How could this sense of loss and despair be expressed?

 

 

Just as Princess Seiko was brutally violated, so too was the pride of the Japanese people brutally violated.

Many of those who remembered the glory of the late 20th century could not overcome this and committed suicide.

 

 

 

Japan is no longer a first-rate nation.

It is even ambiguous to call it an advanced country.

 

 

It is not even a sovereign state.

 

 

 

As a colony, its national prestige has fallen, and all that remains is exploitation.

It is not even certain whether the people will be able to live a safe life.

 

 

Perhaps they will receive back all the atrocities they committed during the Japanese Empire era.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Yes… Hello, viewers. This is Matthew from CNL Broadcasting. Today, we will be talking with an expert about the impact of Japan’s colonization and what stance our government should take in the future. We have with us Professor Wharton, former professor at Washington University, who is active as a political commentator.”

“Hello. I am Jonathan Wharton, a political commentator.”

“Yes. Welcome. Professor, Japan officially became Ibjjo three days ago, becoming a colony of the Palace, right?”

“Yes, that’s right. It’s hard to believe, but Japan has finally collapsed completely, and it can be said that one axis of the world order has crumbled.”

 

The host, after hearing Professor Wharton’s words, fiddled with the documents on the desk.

 

 

“There have been many changes since Japan became a colony this time. First of all, I heard that they are not allowed to use the current national flag?”

“Yes. There is a three-month grace period, but the existing national flag will be abolished and a new one will be produced with the Imperial Family crest. Of course, even that must be finally approved before it can be used.”

“Humiliating.”

“Yes. But that’s not the end of it. Even if they get permission to use it, it’s not as a symbol of the country, but as a symbol of the ‘autonomous region’. In other words, it’s no longer a country.”

“Ah. So, they’re going to incorporate it as an autonomous region beyond just a colony?”

“It seems they are considering merging it with Bosnia in the long term.”

“I doubt that’s possible in the modern era.”

 

The host laughed as if he was dumbfounded, but Professor Wharton did not.

 

 

“Well, dungeons have appeared and a new era has opened, hasn’t it? Historically, the world order has changed as times change.”

“You’re saying we’re in the midst of that.”

“Yes. China has collapsed, and Japan has collapsed. Now, the only country in Asia that can be called an advanced country is South Korea. Even then, North Korea is in the north, and the Harem Palace is in its bosom, so it’s a very precarious situation.”

“It seems to be politically quite difficult.”

“For us, who cannot give up the Korean Peninsula, that’s exactly right.”

 

 

America’s obsession with the Korean Peninsula is not a matter of yesterday or today.

To be precise, it should be said that it is an obsession with checking China and Russia rather than an obsession with the Korean Peninsula.

 

 

Russia was the main enemy of the old Cold War era, and China was a country that was catching up with the United States more frighteningly than any other country in history.

The United States could not let go of checking them strategically, and for this, they needed the Japanese archipelago and the Korean Peninsula.

In particular, the Korean Peninsula is a passage for China to advance into the Pacific Ocean and a land with a warm-water port that Russia so desperately desires, so it was an area that could never be handed over.

 

“According to the Palace-Japan Treaty, the Self-Defense Forces will be disbanded within 6 months, and the US Forces stationed in Japan will also withdraw, but this means that they are trying to drive our America out of Asia. Moreover, Korea has already been secretly pursuing anti-American policies in cooperation with Russia for several months.”

“And they have nuclear weapons too.”

“Yes. It’s a very bad situation.”

 

 

Therefore, the collapse of Japan did not simply mean that.

It was the beginning of the end of America’s influence, which had held the reins of Asia and wielded hegemony.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The host and Professor Wharton continued to talk about the collapse of Japan and the subsequent world situation, and finally talked about what steps the United States should take.

But it wasn’t very nutritious. Because there was no answer.

“A princess is a princess.”

“…What are you talking about again?”

 

 

After playing with Princess Seiko for a few days, Veronica suddenly came and started nagging again.

Well, I guess she’s my mom now.

 

 

“As a member of the royal family, even if she is the daughter of an enemy or a colony, it is better for Master to refrain from excessive acts of humiliation.”

“So, what are you talking about?”

“It is to show all people that members of the royal family are different from ordinary commoners. By doing so, it is to imprint that status comes from God.”

“No;; No one believes that kind of thing.”

 

Status given by God. Does she think anyone would believe that kind of thing now?

Well, the Japanese might believe it…

 

“In the first place. Why is it connected that way?”

“Well, you may not believe it in this era and civilization. But that’s what Master and this Palace have to create in the future. Only then can respect for the Imperial Family be instilled from the subconscious of all people, and ‘status’ can be regarded as an inviolable area.”

 

It seems like she’s the type to just say what she wants to say. We’re not having a conversation at all?

 

 

“Of course, practically speaking, this is how Master can be properly treated when captured by the enemy in an emergency, but it’s better not to say that out loud.”

“You’re saying it.”

“I’m talking to Master.”

“Are you saying all this because of Ludmila?”

“……Of course not.”

 

The answer was about 2.5 seconds late.

I knew it, it was because of Ludmila.

 

 

She was trying to use Seiko as an excuse to take care of Ludmila?

You little rascal.

 

 

“Hehe. I’m sad that my cute Veronica still doesn’t recognize her master.”

“Ahem… Anyway, what I said is all true. All traditional royal families operate the government in this way.”

“Hmph. I don’t know about that kind of thing. And…”

 

 

I took off my pants.

 

 

“…”

“Even if what you said is all true, it doesn’t apply to me, so it doesn’t matter.”

“…Why?”

“Because.”

 

 

And I took off Veronica’s pants too.

I could just fuck her with her pants on, but I’d feel sorry for the clothes maker, wouldn’t I?

Let’s take them off and fuck her today.

 

 

“Because I’m the only Imperial Family in this world, along with my wives. So, we don’t need respect.”

“That’s… Hngh!”

 

Insertion while standing.

It’s always chewy.

Is it because her muscles are tightened?

 

 

“All the princesses I get in the future will be my cum receptacles. Not that there will be many.”

“Keuheok!”

 

 

Veronica, who was nagging, can only moan after being fucked by me.

This girl has gotten the hang of it and tightens on her own. Someday I’ll have to eat her with Ludmila in a donburi.

After fooling around with Veronica, I received a briefing on the current world situation from Seo-hyun.

China and Japan have recently collapsed, so there must have been tremendous changes, so I need to know a little about it.

 

 

I heard that the economy has collapsed to the point where there’s no need to talk about it, and politically it’s quite distorted and unstable.

In particular, the movements of the United States are ominous.

 

 

“Didn’t they back down?”

“That’s true, but they’re not the kind of people who would just sit still knowing that hegemony is being transferred. We need to keep an eye on them.”

“Hmm.”

“Of course, they won’t openly oppose us. There’s the example of China. But… they can do anything behind the scenes. Kidnapping key figures, for example.”

“There’s no way that’s possible.”

 

Even Sonia-ssi was threatened with kidnapping by Agnes’ adventurers when she was level 1, but she just killed them all?

Would the maids be any different?

 

 

“I think so too. In fact, they would only touch us directly or indirectly as a last resort. But… the possibility of them putting pressure on Korea is very high.”

“Korea… That president is out of his mind too. He’s almost fanatically supporting us.”

 

As long as that ajussi is there, I don’t think we need to worry about Korea.

 

 

“As a democratic country, there is no guarantee that the public opinion will be the same even if the president has absolute support. Moreover, this president is approaching the end of his term.”

“Lame duck? What kind of duck is that?”

“…Hmm… That…”

 

 

Seo-hyun trailed off as if it was difficult to explain.

Or did she not understand my joke?

 

 

“To put it simply, it means that the people below don’t listen because he’s about to step down as president.”

“Ah, I see.”

“So, at this time, not only the opposition party but even the ruling party rebels against the Blue House. Anyway, he’s about to enter a lame duck period, and Korea tends to be swayed a lot by public opinion and the government. If the United States puts its national fortune on the line and tries to stir up public opinion, there will be considerable confusion.”

“Then what should we do?”

“It’s simple. Turn the entire United States into Bosnia.”

“No;; Not something so extreme.”

 

 

What do you have to eat to grow up to be so extreme?
