179For a clear ending (5)
In the screen.
Roman Dmitry appears.
As soon as communication was established, Daniel Cairo explained the current situation..
“Marquis Benedict's aristocratic faction joined hands with the Kronos Empire. The Western Front has already collapsed to the second line of defense, and if this continues, it is only a matter of time before the third line of defense also collapses. You probably know what that means. The moment the Kronos Empire invades Cairo's territory, the chaos in Cairo will be further aggravated by the civil war. How should I do this? It is important to wipe out Benedict's noble faction, but we cannot leave the Kronos Empire army like this..”
Cairo West.
The people who lived there were in danger..
While we wasted time trying to sort out the civil war, we had no idea what the Kronos Empire would do..
[If a civil war is not resolved at once, it will definitely leave behind repercussions. Marquis Benedict also knows this, so he attracted the Kronos Empire, and if he retreats his troops now, he will be following his intentions..]
“I don't know that either. However, Marquis Benedict abandoned the Kingdom of Cairo. He may not care what happens to the safety of the kingdom, but as the King of Cairo, I cannot make the same choice. They will try to make the war as long as possible by involving Kronos. And as time goes by, a day or two. The fear starting from the west will engulf all of Cairo..”
It was a dilemma.
king and nobles.
Each person's position was different.
If you decide to abandon the people of the kingdom, then the royal family will inevitably lose its meaning..
“Marquis Benedict urged me to surrender. If I abandon the forces involved in this purge, I will maintain my life and throne. I declined the offer. This is not because of a desire to maintain a small amount of power, but because if Cairo becomes a vassal of the empire, the sacrifice of its people cannot be avoided. If so, let me ask. What is important now for the people? The lives of the people in the West carry the same weight, so is it right to tell them to make sacrifices until the civil war is resolved? Or is it important to settle the civil war and defeat the Kronos Empire in an appropriate way?.”
The aristocratic faction has already been defeated once..
If you are satisfied with this and turn your troops around, you can defeat Kronos and ensure the safety of your people..
of course.
Marquis Benedict will leave a legacy.
Even if it wasn't like before, it was clear that they were planning to sell the country at their leisure..
However, from the time he rejected Marquis Benedict's offer, Daniel Cairo did not attach importance to resolving the civil war and correcting the authority of the royal family..
For the future of the kingdom, he did not abandon Dmitry, but among the options between Dmitry and the people, he sided with the people..
That is.
It was Daniel Cairo..
Even if it was a scarecrow, I hoped that he would choose the path for the kingdom as much as possible from the limited options..
[I know what you mean..]
Roman’s reaction was calm..
I didn't agree with it..
I just understood, Roman Dmitry was a man who had to see the end if he drew his sword..
[His Majesty the King. From the moment we decided to purge, we anticipated that the Kronos Empire might cross our borders. Whether it was because of Count Gregory or Marquis Benedict. It doesn't matter why. Kronos is making fun of us. He showed the boldness of launching an attack using only the troops on the Western Front, without the need to gather troops. What would happen if they left behind internal enemies who were in cahoots with them? You may think you are just taking a step back now, but in order to take that step forward later, many people will need to sacrifice..]
If you were born in a time of peace and prosperity.
Daniel Cairo may have been a good king.
But to get through the difficult times, he still could not face the cruelty of reality..
[Unlike the previous two lines, the Western Front's third line has a significant number of troops deployed. And it is clear that Kronos did not use his full power for this attack. Trust the commanders in Cairo. If they buy me enough time…….]
A king who never lost his romance.
Roman Dmitry wasn't all bad.
He was so engrossed in reality that he hoped that even the king would think of his people..
[3I will eliminate all of Marquis Benedict's noble faction within one day and go to the Western Front to stop the Kronos Empire..]
Roman's remarks.
Daniel Cairo is speechless.
Although he thought he couldn't take both, Roman Dmitry was determined to do both..
It was certain.
Roman Dmitry.
“……i get it. On the 3rd, be sure to kill the traitors within it..”
It was the best option for the Cairo royal family..
* * *
The last struggle of the noble faction.
the expected sea.
If pushed to the edge, Marquis Benedict had in his calculations the option of bringing in the Kronos Empire..
‘last week. We gradually pushed the noble faction into a corner. If we stop breathing prematurely, the civil war will inevitably prolong. By cutting off the enemy's limbs one by one, we created a plan for the enemy to struggle until the end..’
First day of siege.
Roman Dmitry immediately went on the offensive..
Contrary to the momentum that seemed to force the troops to advance at any moment, they took sufficient rest and chose a long-distance attack..
Why?.
To minimize damage?
no.
Roman Dmitry moved his troops at night.
We blocked escape routes from Benedict Castle as much as possible and waited until the magic defense of the castle walls reached its limit..
For a clear ending. took enough time.
The moment the enemy's castle wall lost its function, a perfect siege net was formed around the main wall to prevent even a single ant chick from escaping..
one week.
It was an investment for a complete purge..
This moment, when the enemy thought it was still worth holding on, was Roman Dmitry's idea of D-Day in the first place..
tomorrow.
The massive attack against Benedict Castle will begin as planned..
But that evening.
An unexpected person visited Roman Dmitry.
“Commander. Please put me in the forefront.”
a booming voice.
He was none other than Count Fabius..
* * *
Betray the noble faction.
Count Fabius joined the kingdom's army.
But when I realized that I wasn't called to important meetings, I thought I couldn't just sit still..
‘According to what I have found out, Roman Dmitry is a person with certain rewards and punishments. If I make a remarkable contribution as his person, it means that he is not a person who will ever turn away from it..’
one week.
Roman Dmitry finally announces a major attack.
Count Fabius, who heard about this, saw an opportunity and went to see Roman Dmitry..
And then.
said in a loud voice.
“Commander. Please put me in the forefront.”
vanguard.
It's a dangerous role..
Even though he knew his life was in danger, Count Fabius looked up at Roman Dmitri with unwavering eyes..
A cider that started with a traitor's relationship.
In order to immediately advance a relationship that lags behind others, it was necessary to show blind loyalty, even assuming the role of a receiver..
“I was a member of the noble faction. However, because I thought their intentions were unfair, I refused the order to convene the noble faction and made the choice to follow Roman Dmitri. Give me a chance to prove my loyalty. Even if I have to die, I will shine Roman Dmitry's name at the vanguard..”
It was a desperate voice.
Moment.
eat.
Roman smiled..
He was a fun guy.
Although he was sticking around like a bat, Roman didn't think he looked too bad..
‘The monster who occupied a place among the Four Heavenly Kings was this kind of person..’
monster.
He was a unique old man.
If the Gwangma represented Baek Jung-hyuk's excessive loyalty and the blood demon's desire to become stronger, the Gwangma changed its owner as many as three times until Baek Jung-hyuk rose to the top..
If he were an ordinary person, his head would have been blown off, but he survived to the end and remained by the side of Baek Jung-hyuk, the final winner..
Baek Jung-hyuk hoped for a mutually beneficial relationship..
When the demon abandoned his third master and came to him, he willingly accepted the traitor's oath of loyalty..
“There is no need to fake a smile in front of me. Prove your worth with your abilities. If you prove yourself useful as my person, I won't care what you think..”
betrayal.
It is a choice available to everyone..
Baek Jung-hyuk believed in his own abilities..
Rather than expecting blind loyalty from those who followed him, he used his overwhelming power to control people so that they would not betray him..
It was the same with the monster.
If he betrayed his abilities, he would pay the price, but unlike other people, I didn't think he would betray unconditionally..
As a result.
The monster took one place among the Four Heavenly Kings..
He led the battlefield without Baek Jung-hyuk and led to numerous victories, and political faction members trembled at his name..
And until the day Baek Jung-hyuk dies.
The monster did not betray.
I once had a conversation with him, and he said that he couldn't allow the thought of betraying the Heavenly Demon in his head..
‘Count Fabius.’
A renegade from the aristocratic faction.
In a situation where others would watch and hide, I boldly came and bowed my head..
his judgment was right.
Just as he accepted Viscount Konrad, Roman Dmitry did not judge the past as an absolute standard..
“It's dangerous. Can you still do it??”
“You can! This Fabius, I will sacrifice my life!”
The expression brightened..
Count Fabius hit his head..
Heirs and high-ranking nobles of a noble family.
Although the difference in status was clear, there was not a trace of shame on his face..
“i get it. Fabius, you will be at the forefront of this war..”
Fabius.
He desperately grabbed the opportunity..
* * *
the day has dawned.
The aristocratic faction was no different from any other day..
Knowing that they had the Kronos Empire on their backs, they actually looked more triumphant than the day before..
It was then.
Jump and run.
A figure walked towards the castle wall.
A man wearing a robe.
The soldiers on the castle walls looked suspicious at the development being different from before..
widely.
stopped walking.
The man looked up at the castle wall.
‘It's time to repay your master's trust..’
he was felix.
last week.
Felix never used magic.
He only led the wizards who gave power to the flare and conserved his own power as much as possible..
From the beginning, the time when he would manifest his power was fixed..
When the wizards had sufficiently reduced the durability of the magic defenses and completed all preparations for a week, Felix took on the role of putting an end to this war..
Whining.
the wind blew.
When Felix generated mana, flames bloomed around him..
“Summon Salamander).”
Grumble, rumble.
A fire broke out..
They wrapped around each other and turned into a monster shaped like fire..
elemental magic.
It was Phoenix's draw..
and.
“Burning).”
Hwarak.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
opening of circles.
Felix swallowed the Salamander..
His entire body was ablaze with flames, and even his hair was dyed bright red. Felix's teacher always valued the ability to accept fire..
If someone who doesn't uses Burning, they won't be able to survive the Salamander's fire..
“What is this.”
“look at that!”
There was chaos on the castle walls..
They could not understand the sight before their eyes..
It wasn't a self-immolation, it was just mesmerization as I looked at the person burning in the fire..
That moment.
“Fire Rain).”
Rumbling.
Breaking down the boundaries of circles.
5Felix, who was only a member of the Circle, entered the area of the 6th Circle with the help of the Salamander..
Hwareuk.
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
fireworks fell from the sky.
At first, it was just small sparks flying around, but then dark clouds formed and fist-sized fireworks started raining down like crazy..
Kwaang!
Crumbling!
“evil!”
“raise your shield!”
It was the beginning of a massacre.
As the flames fell from the sky, the soldiers who watched in fascination were engulfed in hot flames. In an instant, the scream spread everywhere..
The soldiers hurriedly tried to hide themselves, but the flames falling in such a wide area did not allow them any way to escape..
However, the magic defenses on the castle walls did not block all of them..
When the flares started attacking at the same time, the magic defense exceeded the acceptable power..
puff pop!
Crumbling rumbling!
Flare and 6-circle magic.
It was truly a disaster.
Phoenix.
People called it the best in firepower..
However, because the ability to receive fire was so limited, they were unable to produce more than two wizards who always used burning..
So, Phoenix was rated as the lowest among the 13 magic towers..
Felix, the new magic tower owner there, succeeded in manifesting burning through the chlorine magic..
Cry rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
It was hell.
With just one wizard.
5by flares fired from two launchers..
The Benedictine Wall, known as the Iron Fortress, was engulfed in flames, and the soldiers, who had turned black, fell one by one..
one week.
Roman waited for his time..
To properly demonstrate Felix’s firepower,.
After mobilizing flares and reducing the magic defense sufficiently, I put an end to it today..
at last.
Crumbling rumbling.
“the castle wall collapsed!”
Magic defenses have lost their power.
I hit the mana stone, but reached my limit due to the accumulated damage and 6-circle magic..
There was a hole.
From now on.
Benedict's Wall was not an iron fortress..
Into the hole that was wide open as if welcoming the enemies, someone from the kingdom's army jumped out vigorously..
“Soldiers! Follow me!”
raccoon of kairos.
It was Count Fabius..
Rather than just giving orders from behind, he rode his horse directly to the front lines..
“Risk your life to punish the heinous traitor.!”
“Wow!”
His cry became the catalyst..
Soldiers rushing at the same time.
The battlefield is on fire.
It was a scene that happened on only one day out of the three days Roman had promised..
