As the Rising Flame, once the Mohawk chieftain, raised his head, the Wyandotte chieftain spoke again.
"Is it okay to hit the sun in the sky?"
'Rising Flames' answered calmly as planned.
"No, we have to wait now."
The Wyandot chieftain tilted his head and looked down from his high seat as if peering into the 'rising flames'.
"Should we wait? Didn't you say that the Sun in the Sky was at war with other tribal alliances? At this time, we could attack the Sun in the Sky and steal the divine weapons and fire arrows."
As with all tribes, the Wyandot chieftain had a keen interest in the weapons of the gods. 'Rising Flames' was able to touch his greed and settle safely in the Wyandot tribe with his followers.
"Right now, my priority is to be friendly with the sun in the sky."
"Have a nice day? It seems like you have a plan. Let me hear it."
'Rising Flames' began to explain his plan to the Wyandot tribe chief and elders, cheering inwardly.
"I see."
"aha!"
"It's okay"
"The Son of God?"
The Wyandot tribe chiefs and elders' expressions changed from moment to moment, and they occasionally exclaimed in admiration at the elaborate and surprising plan of the 'Rising Flames'.
After a while, after the explanation of 'Rising Flames' was over, one of the Wyandot tribe elders asked with a curious look on his face.
"Is the chieftain of the sun in the sky really the son of God?"
'Rising Flames' nodded without hesitation.
"Yes, he is the Son of God."
Suddenly, the Wyandot tribesmen inside the longhouse became noisy.
Boom boom!
"Can we win against the Son of God?"
"Shouldn't we be inviting him instead?"
As the long house grew quiet, 'Rising Flames' slowly opened his mouth with an expression filled with fear and terror.
"He is the son of God, but he is Tawiskara (the god of evil) who leads the world to destruction."
"Tawiskara?"
"That evil spirit appears?"
Tawiskara, the evil god of the Wyandot tribe. That evil spirit sows the seeds of evil in the world, corrupting and destroying people.
Boom boom!
Once again, the entire house was shocked by the appearance of the evil spirit Tawiskara. The Wyandot chieftain cleared the tumultuous room and spoke in front of all the elders.
"There is a reason why we must kill the Chieftain of the Sun of the Sky, Tawiskaran, before the world is destroyed."
'Rising Flames' let out a sigh of relief as he looked at the sight.
'it's okay.'

Between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.
[Tiring!]
[Congratulations! You've discovered Niagara Falls.]
A huge waterfall was falling from a high place, with a series of loud noises. Niagara Falls, which I had only heard of through words.
I stood there for a while, speechless at the magnificent sight. Sheer cliffs, the mist created by the falling of a huge amount of water bombs, and rainbows of all sizes blooming through the mist.
"They said it was a land divided in two…"
"It was good that you came."
"Nature seems so beautiful and great."
The Royal Guard warriors who were viewing Niagara Falls with me also elicited exclamations of admiration and gasps here and there.
'A land divided in two…'
The Iroquois people called Niagara Falls "the land divided in two." As they say, Niagara Falls and the long gorge divided the land in two.
"It was good that you came."
After a while, after briefly admiring Niagara Falls, the warriors of the guard and I began to move towards the second stronghold village of the Iroquois Confederacy.
"We will reach the stronghold village before the sun sets!"
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
* * *
'Sun in the Sky', a village of the Onondaga tribe of the Iroquois Confederacy. As the sun was setting, my men and I arrived at the second stronghold of the Iroquois Confederacy.
"Your Majesty the Emperor!"
"His Majesty the Emperor has come to congratulate us!"
As expected, the 'Sun of the Sky' warriors stationed in this village warmly welcomed me and the Royal Guard warriors. And just the presence of me, His Majesty the Emperor, was a boost to their morale.
"With all due respect to His Majesty the Emperor! Loyalty!"
"insect!"
I received the salutes of each and every one of the 'Sun of the Sky' warriors and praised them for their hard work with warm words.
"You've had a hard time."
"You're working hard."
"Because of you, we, the people of 'The Sun in the Sky' can rest in peace."
"It's sturdy."
The warriors of 'Sun of the Sky' seemed to feel great pride and satisfaction at my words.
"Go to the village hall and report."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
The great warrior in charge of this stronghold village guided me to the long house. After a while, I calmly received the report inside the long house.
"… … After building the fort, we plan to make a residence for the Iroquois people."
"There doesn't seem to be any major problems. Let's continue like this."
"I understand. By the way, His Majesty the Emperor is here and the warriors are very happy."
"Of course our soldiers are suffering, so they should come."
The first reason I deliberately travel through conquered lands is to boost the morale of my warriors. Now I got up from my seat to put the second reason into practice.
"It's a little late, but let's go to where the Iroquois people are."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor!"
* * *
The town square was packed with Iroquois tribesmen.
Boom boom!
"Is it true that he is the Son of God?"
"How can you cure a disease that a witch doctor couldn't cure?"
"I can't believe it until I see it with my own eyes."
I waited behind the stage until 'God's Treatment' was ready. At that moment, a young woman climbed up onto the stage, supported by the warriors of the 'Sun of the Sky'.
Once everything was ready, I went up to the stage and carefully examined the patient who would receive 'God's treatment.'
Her back was bent like that of an old woman, and her hands and feet were badly twisted. Unfocused eyes, unable to even speak properly.
'I guess it's been like that since birth.'
Congenital cerebral palsy. This can never be cured by Native American medicine. As I approached the young woman lying on the ground and knelt down, the town square, which had been noisy just moments ago, became as quiet as a mouse.
"...."
I placed my hand on her chest and prayed as if I was communicating with the Creator God, acting as if I was performing a sacred ritual.
"… Creator God! Spirits! Look down on this poor woman."
The prayers were different each time.
'therapy!'
The transparent light coming from my body instantly permeated her body. At that moment, a miracle happened. A young Seneca woman who could not move on her own slowly got up from her seat, looked at her hands and feet, and began to shed tears without stopping.
"Thank you! Thank you so much!"
The Iroquois Confederate tribesmen in the town square were also in an uproar.
"I can't believe it even after seeing it."
"That woman stands on her own two feet!"
"It's a divine cure!"
"He was truly the Son of God!"
After completing the second reason for visiting this place, which was to gather public sentiment, I came down from the stage.
"It is an honor to see God's healing."
The great warrior of the 'Sun of the Sky' in charge of this village guided me with eyes full of awe.
"I hope you can make room for me tomorrow morning too."
"Understood, Your Majesty the Emperor!"

The middle reaches of the beautiful river (St. John River). I and my Royal Guard warriors were visiting the northernmost stronghold village in the Avnaki Federation territory and quickly heading south.
I looked up from my buffalo mount and checked the map window. Autumn 1405. It's been a long time since the season that was summer changed to fall.
As I looked around, the lush forests around me were starting to change color and turn into autumn leaves. After a brief review, I checked the resource marks displayed on the map window.
'The Iroquois Confederacy territory was pretty good too.'
Perhaps because it is close to the mountains that divide the land (the Appalachian Mountains), coal resources were endless.
And the salt mines. It proves that this area was once a sea. What was even more surprising was that there was a huge amount of natural gas buried there.
I nodded and understood why the United States of America in the distant future would become the world's most powerful country.
Vast territory, abundant resources, geographical location, etc. Of course, political decisions and luck may have played a role as well.
'We need to expand our territory at least to North America.'
I was looking beyond the United States and into Canada. After gathering my thoughts, I habitually activated 'Resource Scan' again when entering a new area.
'Resource Scan'
[Tiring!]
[Copper found.]
[Tiring!]
[Zinc found.]
Another jackpot! The third reason why I drag my tired body and look back on the land I conquered. Completed map and resource map.
The Abnaki Federation region was already close to the sea and was rich in marine resources such as salmon, cod, clams, and crabs.
There was even a huge amount of good quality clay.
'It was worth all the hard work so far.'
I shouted to the guardsmen with a cheerful expression.
"Now only the last stronghold village remains. Just hold on a little longer!"
"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor!"

The capital of the 'sun in the sky', a 'very big' city. Several heads of administrative agencies were gathered in the government office conference room and holding a meeting.
"Following the Saponi tribe, the Tutelo tribe has also decided to join our 'Sun in the Sky'."
The head of the administration and senior advisor, 'Splendid Sunset', spoke to the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Wide Earth', who looked both happy and regretful.
"It would have been nice if the Catawba tribe had come, but it's not easy because they are such an independent tribe."
"Leave it. We're not in a hurry."
The head of the Information and Inspection Department, 'Fast Deer', also commented on the opinion of 'Splendid Sunset'.
"They tell us to fight the Cherokee to the death. Someday the Catawba will bow their heads and come in. But His Majesty the Emperor has done something."
"I never expected that the Miami tribe would enter the sun of the sky."
The 'vast land' nodded silently to their conversation. After chatting about this and that for a while, 'Splendid Sunset' started organizing the documents on the desk.
"Chief of the Great Lands! The southern tribes, including the Tutello tribe, have made the same request. As you know, we must quickly rescue the people who have been taken as slaves by the Cherokee tribe. First, prepare a delegation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to negotiate with the Cherokee tribe. The Emperor has departed for the capital, so let's finish it by then."
"We have already made arrangements for how to negotiate with the Cherokee. We just need to organize a delegation."
The 'Splendid Sunset' looked satisfied with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' thorough preparation and immediately gave instructions.
"I think it would be enough to form a delegation of about a hundred people, including warriors to escort them."
"All right."
At that moment, the 'swift deer' tilted its head and stepped forward.
"The Cherokee tribe said they were visiting for trade, so is there really any need for our delegation to go?"
"Huh? This is the first time I've heard of that?"
"I should have reported it."
"I didn't do it."
"okay?"
"yes."
As 'Splendid Sunset' spoke firmly, 'Swift Deer' scratched the back of his head and made excuses.
"Sorry. I must have forgotten because I was so busy."
* * *
Having safely returned to the 'very big' city with my SS warriors, I immediately ran to the house where I was living without even undressing.
In front of the house, the father-in-law, the 'hunter of the forest', was already loitering around with an anxious look on his face.
"Why are you so late?"
"The moon is rising?"
"I am currently pregnant with my third child."
At that moment, an urgent sound was heard from inside the house.
"What should I do?"
"The baby is not breathing."
I could instinctively tell that something was wrong. I didn't even think twice and just ran into the house.
