Help! My Way to Survive Is to Help Others Become Emperors

[System + Time Travel + Ancient Strategy + Power] Others can win by lying down, but I can survive by working for the emperor at 996. There were only three months left before I was diagnosed with ALS, so I was bound to the Emperor Development System. The rules of the system are simple: travel through ten ancient worlds and help people become emperors. Clear one level and live one more day. I thought it was technical work - using intelligence to help the prince in the cold palace seize the throne, using veterinary technology to help the prairie wolf cubs fight for the throne, and using ginkgo leaves to pass messages and conspire with the puppet emperor in a coup. Wait, am I here to work, or am I here to have a love that spans ten time and space?
