In ancient times, a great empire ruled the world with power and might.
The emperor had many wives and concubines, each with sons competing for their father's favor.
As the emperor neared death, he decided to divide his vast empire into smaller kingdoms, giving each of his sons a kingdom to rule.
The emperor carefully distributed the lands, giving each prince a piece of land.
Every piece of land was given a unique name that reflected its beauty and wealth.
However, one piece of land, which was the most beautiful and richest of all, was left without a name.
This land was meant for the youngest son, Prince Kalin, who had not lived up to the emperor's expectations.
Prince Kalin was intelligent and kind-hearted, but he was not a strong warrior or a cunning politician like his brothers.
He was inclined toward science and the arts, which made him a subject of ridicule by his father and brothers.
When the time came to divide the lands, the emperor refused to give Kalin's land a name, as a form of punishment and humiliation.
Prince Kalin became the ruler of the nameless land, and soon the news of this punishment spread throughout the empire.
People began to mockingly call the kingdom 'Nameless' and its ruler.
Kalin and his people suffered from oppression and humiliation from the neighboring kingdoms, who looked down on them with contempt.
Despite the hardships, Prince Kalin decided to turn his kingdom's weakness into strength.
He began to promote education and the arts in his kingdom, turning 'Nameless' into a center of knowledge and culture.
The kingdom became known for its schools and universities, attracting students and scholars from all over the world.
When the neighboring kingdoms attacked 'Nameless,' its people showed unparalleled courage and resilience.
They used their intelligence and knowledge to defeat their enemies in unconventional ways.
Prince Kalin led his army with wisdom and achieved unexpected victories, forcing the other kingdoms to respect them.
Over time, the name 'Nameless' transformed from a mark of shame to a symbol of pride and struggle.
The kingdom became a model of inner strength and courage in the face of challenges.
Prince Kalin earned the respect of the world and became remembered as one of the greatest rulers in history.
Today, the Kingdom of 'Nameless' is a symbol of resilience and transformation.
From a land without a name to a symbol of pride and dignity, this kingdom proved that strength does not come from great names or vast wealth, but from the willpower and ability to transform in the face of challenges.
The story of 'Nameless' remains a constant reminder that shame can be turned into pride, and that difficulties can be a gateway to achieving the greatest accomplishments.
This was the most popular story in the kingdom.
Countless series and movies have been made, and it was considered the true story behind the kingdom's name, despite it being filled with gaps and historical inaccuracies.
Anyone who criticized it was considered a traitor and an agent.
Legally, you couldn't do anything to them, but when the people got angry, let's see how the law would protect you.
The people of the Kingdom of 'Nameless' were known as the most fanatical about their country, as testified by foreigners who came to visit.
They were not tolerant of tourists' ignorance of their customs or taboos, leading to incidents of beatings, insults, and even killings over things that one wouldn't expect.
They were not labeled the most racist people for nothing.
Of course, this was due to the strict educational system that focused on nurturing nationalism in children.
Therefore, the idea of being an enemy of the kingdom seemed like a suicidal idea to me.
Throughout my education, although it was a failure scientifically, it was successful in instilling fear and terror of the kingdom, especially the royal family and the four families.
Of course, for every rule, there is an exception.
The educational or political system makes you either a citizen who stands with the kingdom in everything, whether right or wrong, or a citizen who resents the kingdom and wants to destroy it, in other words, a traitor.
There is only one charge that warrants the death penalty in the kingdom, and that is treason.
Since the kingdom is based on democracy, the law must find evidence to convict the person.
But don't worry, if the law fails, the people won't hesitate to carry out the punishment themselves.
There is a well-known slogan,yes, I know there are many slogans; it's not called the Kingdom of Slogans for nothing.
Anyway, the slogan is:
"The law may fail once, but the people never fail."
This slogan was a nightmare for anyone accused of treason and whom the law couldn't convict.
It even got to the point where some criminals tried to cover up their crimes by polishing their reputation before the people, forgetting that they needed to protect themselves from the law first. In the end, their fate was the same,execution.
So, I was puzzled as to how the kingdom had lost control of things to the point where I was sitting at this table, surrounded by all these disgusting faces, and I didn't see any fear or awe as they talked about controlling the kingdom.
What exactly happened in the past five years?
"Sir, try this from my hand."
Amy, for the thousandth time, extended her hand to feed me, and I, powerless, opened my mouth for her to place a piece of meat inside.
I was about to die from the touch of her hands and her chest on my arm.
You should know that in my first life, I was a virgin, and with the help of surgeries, I didn't feel any sexual desire.
But this body has no such restrictions.
It's a miracle I haven't pounced on her in front of everyone, but I feel like I might explode at any moment.
"Sir Emiric, why have you gathered us today? Did you find out anything about who tried to assassinate you?"
One of the pigs finally addressed me, and not knowing what to say, I came up with the first excuse that came to mind.
"The assassination attempt concerns me, and I will make those responsible pay dearly for it, don't worry. As for this meeting, I want everyone to provide a brief and concise report on what has happened during my absence."
"Of course, of course."
They responded with the utmost sarcasm, giving me that dismissive look as if a child were speaking to them.
This reaction left me feeling disoriented.
In the midst of my confusion, suddenly everyone turned their attention, cutting off their jokes, and their expressions shifted from mockery to shock and fear.
Of course, to understand the cause of this sudden change, I followed their gaze and found a dining knife pointed at my neck from my right side.
If it weren't for my hand, which acted on its own to grab the wrist holding the knife, I would be dead by now.
I shifted my gaze from the knife's tip to the person holding it.
Amy?
"What's happening here?"
Only one word came to mind: honeypot.
Her face showed a surprised expression.
It seemed she hadn't anticipated this turn of events.
As a reflex, she tried to pull her hand back, only to find that my grip on her wrist tightened.
She stood up quickly, and with an acrobatic move, she raised her leg, aiming a powerful kick at my head.
Her leg moved like a whip; I bent to avoid her attack and flung her arm to spin her in the air.
She lost her balance, but due to her flexibility, she managed to regain control and landed on the table.
I stepped back quickly, only to find Hank standing in front of me.
All of this happened so fast that everyone, including myself, was confused, not knowing whether to be astonished by the beautiful assassin or by the businessman's knowledge of martial arts.
Before anyone could comprehend what had just happened, Amy dashed across the table, heading toward the door, knowing that her plan had failed.
The guests tried to stop her.
Some tried grabbing her wrist or leg, but she slipped through their hands with ease, as if she had no joints.
She was only a few steps away from the door.
Just as her hopes of escape started to rise, Hank suddenly appeared in front of her, as if from nowhere.
"Did you really think stepping into the bathroom would be as easy as walking out?"
Hank's voice carried a mocking edge as he placed his right hand behind his back. His left hand rose, slicing downward like a blade aimed at Amy.
The crowd held their breath. Surely, her speed wasn't enough to evade him. But then, the impossible happened.
Amy's movements defied logic—fluid and unnatural, as if her body lacked the constraints of joints altogether. She twisted, shifted, and avoided the strike effortlessly, her change in direction so seamless it seemed like sorcery.
Before anyone could process what had just occurred, she was already past him.
Curse your mother; she exited just as she entered.
Hank showed some embarrassment, but he didn't chase after her, as if he knew what would happen next.
"Boom!"
The sound reached my ears, and before I could wonder about its source, a cannonball fired from the door and hit the wall.
"Boom!"
She returned as quickly as she had exited.
Who else but the beautiful Amy, who fell to her hands and knees after her back collided with the wall?
She coughed violently, spitting blood from her beautiful mouth, with a kick mark on her chest.
Fortunately, her towering peaks weren't damaged.
What am I thinking? She just tried to kill me!
From the door appeared the hidden killer, Dexter, the driver, walking with heavy steps and a deathly look in his eyes that sent chills down the spine, holding a wide black knife in his left hand.
Dressed in a black suit, he looked like the Grim Reaper.
All the guests stood up, pulling out their weapons from their clothes.
knives, swords ,I don't even know where they were hiding them.
guns ,it seems firearms have become widespread in the kingdom.
And Cleaver? Does he think he's a butcher?
Damn, if they had wanted to kill me, I'd be dead a hundred times over by now.
More men entered through the door, armed men from my side and the guests' guards, filling the hall to its capacity.
Amy quickly stood up, placing a knife to her throat, indicating her intent to commit suicide now that she realized there was no way out.
"Stop!"
I screamed at the top of my lungs, trying to stop her, and fortunately, my attempt succeeded.
"What? Do you want to make me an offer? No thanks. I came here knowing this could be my end, but honestly,you managed to fool everyone. Everyone thinks you're just a businessman, but it turns out you know martial arts. Unfortunately for you, your cover is blown, and no one will believe you anymore. I might die here, but sooner or later, the truth will leak. These fools,it's easy to extract information from them, haha."
All eyes turned to the old man who had brought her with him.
He felt embarrassed and lowered his head, unable to say a word.
"I understand why you didn't tell them. Your caution saved you today, but how long will you remain cautious? How long will you stay lucky?"
Suddenly, the seductive charm she had vanished, and she started spouting nonsense, trying to sow discord and break their confidence.
It was as if she was talking to me, but in reality, she was speaking to my subordinates.
Does she think I don't see what she's trying to do? You've picked the wrong person to play with.
I caught her intentions clearly this time, and her true goal finally became apparent to me.
I raised my hand towards her as if signaling a dog to leave and said with a voice and expression of complete indifference.
"Just do it."

Emiric: Hey Hank, come see the good old days when you couldn't even touch a little girl.
Author: Whoa, whoa, let's dial it down a bit. No touch, no little and of course no girls.
Emiric: Oh, my bad. Didn't mean it like that, I'll make it better, Hank come see...
Author: No, no, you're not bringing anyone else into this. I'm already struggling to work with you as it is. I don't need another mess.
Emiric: All this because he is a white man.

Emiric: Racism, we will not advance until we abandon it once and for all.
