    Do you want to be an emperor?

    Me? No!!! No way! I don’t want a knife against my throat. I don’t want to listen to political talk, meeting, or power struggle. I seriously don’t like those scheming old geezz!!

    I also don’t want a harem of a thousand beauty. I can’t cage them in a glass for display. It is definitely hard to track them and keep them all in a straight line.

    Reading textbooks is already enough. Being an emperor is like college never ends. Textbooks after textbook and events after events.

    Chinese Emperor, no, but Arcane Emperor? Hell yes!
    No need for those mortal politics, just magical might and magical discourse on hows, whys, and whats about magic.

    I'd like to be the Japanese Emperor. You don't do much apart from ceremonial duties.

    How about being a smaller ruler or someone the emperor owes a lot?

    I'd rather be an ancestor or something. You know, the guy everyone respects and leaves alone but who does not have to meddle in the court.
    Honestly, I know that I'd suck at being emperor, both because I don't have the necessary know-how and because I lack the qualities.
    CEO I could manage, IF (and only if) it is either a small company or I can delegate some of the tasks to trusty subordinates, but an emperor has to make rules, judge people AND worry about the same stuff as an CEO.

    So no thank you.

    Well as fantasy goes being emperor is too dangerous. Every hero will try to get you.

    I would like to be Emperor, I would execute my political opponents and keep the citizens happy with public works. And keep enemy nations in check with massive military that would be used to build the national infrastructure when not killing my enemies.

    I would really hate it if I become an emperor, because even if they say emperors have a lot of power, it also comes a lot of restrictions that I hate. Along side as sht ton of work & responsibility.

    Well, my empire is my room, and it is a desolate and nigh inhospitable place.

    Nope,
    I dont wanna have a life like Lyle in Sevens.
    Too troublesome.

    I like how it has power over the domain it holds but having responsibilities is a big nada, nope, no way for me.

    Too much stress for me. I'm ok with being a rich merchant, but being involved with the royalty? No thanks. I'll be dead by the next mourning.

    Political is scary, even more so in ancient time.
