202The Wheel of Fortune (2)
Edwin Hector was embarrassed..
If you know the plot of the Kronos Empire.
There was no reason to reject his offer..
public enemy.
The plan is to overthrow the Kronos Empire, so why are they reacting so aggressively?.
“To be honest, I don't understand Roman Dmitry's intentions. Principality Dmitry invited the Kingdom Union to talk about the future. Just as he attracted a coalition of kingdoms in the incident with the Kronos Empire, he proved to himself that he needed the full strength of the surrounding countries to counter the imperial ambitions..”
Dmitri and Hector.
Their goals coincided..
In that case, it was right to welcome and embrace Edwin Hector's extended hand..
“I will not deny that Hector is weak. Just one year was not enough to resolve the damage caused by poor harvests and the aftermath of war, and there are still many people in Hector who are starving. But what does that have to do with anything? If there is even just one person willing to help overthrow the Kronos Empire, it will be beneficial to Dmitry. This means that we will take on the war together that you must fully endure. And isn't Hector's plan an extension of what Dmitry did to bring about a union of kingdoms?.”
outside the office.
A friendly conversation was taking place at the party..
They clinked glasses and talked about the future of the kingdom, laughing at each other as they said they would join forces against a common enemy..
A sea that has already been agreed upon.
On the surface, the alliance between Dmitri and Hector was established, and Edwin Hector only arranged this event to make that fact clear..
Therefore, rejection was unexpected..
Roman Dmitry was a difficult character to predict on the battlefield, but I had no idea he would be this difficult outside of the battlefield..
Roman Dmitry said.
“you're right. With a common enemy called the Empire, the alliance of kingdoms can only survive if they come together. What I mean is a closer relationship than that. Does Prince Edwin Hector believe in the unity of kingdoms? You may have each other's backs for your own safety right now, but there's no guarantee that will last until the end..”
There are no permanent allies.
Given that, Roman Dmitry hoped for clear benefits for both parties for a clear relationship..
“From now on, if I were the Kronos Empire, I will tell you how I would tear down the sand castle of kingdom unity..”
* * *
Human relationships are complicated.
If one's own person showed unwavering faith, those outside the fence were constantly suspicious and distrustful..
alliance, union.
In order to build such a relationship, it must be accompanied not only by purpose but also by the conviction that the relationship is mutually beneficial..
Hector only has a clear purpose. It was not a presence that influenced the general trend..
“Recently, the situation in the Kingdom of Umberto is not so good. They are at the forefront, facing the border with Kronos. They are suffering the most damage due to frequent battles, and the resulting fatigue is causing dissatisfaction to leak out from within. If I were the Kronos Empire, I would first try to appease Umberto. If Umberto falls for that appeasement, the kingdom union will have no choice but to collapse on its own due to the cracks that arise from within..”
one possibility.
“In the Kingdom of Redford, the King was caught in a gamble. He put the safety of the country aside and squandered the national treasury, and while his subordinates tried to solve the problem, they ended up turning to the Golden Bank. As you know, Golden Bank has influence across the continent. If they start to press, the debt-ridden Kingdom of Redford will look for a new solution, and that may be treachery..”
the possibility of two.
“But do you think you can trust Frank and Odelia? No, absolutely not. They have a divided power system, just like old Cairo. The fact that the Franks neglected to support Phoenix was also a disaster that occurred because the forces following the empire encouraged the king. Cairo has found stability with the purge of Marquis Benedict and the aristocracy, but we cannot be sure that a miracle like ours will happen to them..”
net possibility.
finally.
“How about Hector? The four kingdoms of the Kingdom Alliance have enough weaknesses for Kronos to attack. The same goes for Hector. If hunger reaches its peak. Or, if Valhalla suddenly declares war. Are you confident that you will survive then? Those of you who say you will seek revenge against the Kronos Empire are asking whether you have the strength to not be shaken by changing circumstances..”
kingdom union.
It was just a sand castle.
We have formed such an uneasy relationship that we don't know when it will break down..
“Dmitry has no intention of making the mistake of breaking ties with the Kingdom Alliance first. I hope to have a friendly relationship with Hector in the future, but joining Prince Edwin Hector's plan is another matter. The price of excessive faith is fatal. If we assume that neighboring countries may betray us at any time, Dmitry will not be shaken in any situation, but if we trust each other, then the problem is different. Because there is a role that is desired for Hector. We can't help but think that the gap will be fatal..”
It was a complicated problem.
I will form alliances, but not give sincerity..
This was the answer given to Edwin Hector, who expressed his sincerity..
Looking at Edwin Hector, who could not accept the situation, Roman Dmitry spoke in a subdued voice..
“I do not know the true feelings of Hector Kingdom. Unlike other kingdoms, Hector has a clear goal of taking revenge on the Kronos Empire, so there is ample reason to accept him as an ally. The question is whether Dmitri is truly worthy of dealing with Hector. This is an important role that Hector can play. If Hector only says that he will take revenge on Kronos in this harsh environment, Dmitri has no reason to treat Hector sincerely. Because there is little to be gained from Hector anyway. Rather, believing and following yourself is a smart way to avoid taking risks..”
Future plans.
I needed confidence in Hector..
If they prove their worth, then we will consider how to use Hector from then on..
and.
From the beginning, Roman Dmitry's claim was that Dmitry was the subject of the plan..
“Let me ask you again. Is there any basis for Dmitry to truly join hands with Hector??”
* * *
Roman Dmitry says.
It was right.
Hector was weak.
Nevertheless, Edwin Hector talked about his plan without even knowing the topic..
‘……If you think about it, the fact that the Kronos Empire is the subject of the dark side is not that important..’
Kronos.
They were not planning a conspiracy behind the scenes while appearing friendly on the outside, but they were the same back and forth..
He always talked about conquering the continent..
Considering that they made Hector's land dry, which was something to be resented, and that they tried to overthrow Hector politically, they were originally like that..
The truth only gave me confidence.
The reality we have to deal with has not changed..
Although the Kingdom of Hector had no power to carry out the plan, it only talked about destroying the Kronos Empire..
“You are so cruel.”
I laughed empty-handed.
truth.
It was so cruel.
Edwin Hector smiled self-deprecatingly..
“Actually, I know the truth too. Hector is falling down the path of downfall, and if this continues, he will inevitably collapse on his own, even if it is not someone's attack. That may be why I am so desperate for revenge. When Hector still has some of his power left. He also has a desire to take revenge on the Kronos Empire for turning Hector into this situation, and to use their wealth to solve the kingdom's problems..”
Hector's value.
It was shabby.
Even though I had the power to burn it just once, I couldn't say it was that great..
“Hector is not qualified to lead the plan. If a continental war breaks out and the Kingdom Alliance wins. Hector will be there, but it cannot be said that victory was achieved through Hector's strength. But I have no intention of giving up on revenge. From the moment Hector's people fell to the ground and died in solitude, clutching their hungry stomachs, Hector became a being who could not coexist with Cronus..”
The voice became increasingly louder..
Looking straight at Roman Dmitry, his voice gained strength..
“Did you ask for a basis for bringing out Dmitry's true feelings? I can promise you just one thing. As the prince of the Kingdom of Hector, I will do my best and risk my life if it means overthrowing the Kronos Empire. It's okay if we aren't the main characters. If you defeat Cronus and promise Hector's future. Hector will be at the forefront. War is a war of attrition, and doesn't Dmitri need a scapegoat to pave the way?.”
Roman Dmitry.
I was convinced by my conversation with him..
For a man this meticulous, there is no one more perfect for his plans..
believed.
So, I made a sacrifice.
“Even if Hector reduces Kronos' power by just one hundredth, it will be beneficial to Dmitry. How about doing it this way instead? Dmitry please help Hector. I don't ask for much. If you provide us with provisions and weapons for our soldiers, we will use them as a driving force against Kronos. If it's just a cause and no real help, please help us do whatever we can. Rather than a superficial union of kingdoms. I think Hector, who has a clear goal, is a better fit for Dmitry's plan..”
It was a bold proposal..
When I asked about the value, I expected the value to be given in return..
Edwin Hector's eyes were stained with venom..
As he uncovers the cruel truth, he accepts his fate as the prince of Hector's kingdom..
so that.
I risked my life and death on this matter..
If we don't take down Kronos, Hector will be finished anyway..
It was then.
“The promise I just made. keep that in mind.”
I didn't mean to be a perfect ally..
but.
Hector.
No, I have confirmed the value of accepting Edwin Hector..
“Dmitry will do his best to help Hector regain his power from behind the scenes..”
* * *
Following Cairo.
Formed a second alliance.
Rather than a mere kingdom union, Hector will have a place in future plans..
of course.
We will always prepare for variables, but the meaning of Hector has changed from before..
before leaving.
Edwin Hector said.
“When I first met Roman Dmitri on the battlefield. For the first time in her life, she felt overwhelmed. At that time, Hector lost the war, and he thought a lot over the past year. Why did a perfectly prepared plan fail? Is it right to simply accept the failure caused by the existence of just one person, Roman Dmitry? People say: You met the wrong person. But I can't say the same thing when dealing with Kronos, so I don't want to evade responsibility with that excuse..”
prince of a country.
The life of Edwin Hector, whom people looked up to, was so intense that it took one's breath away..
“While living in the sky, I worked tirelessly to become a person who creates variables on my own. It's no different now. Hector will become stronger than he is now. In order not to be swayed by excuses, we will somehow increase Hector's value, so Roman Dmitri, please create a stage for us..”
I gritted my teeth.
That is.
This was Edwin Hector's last appearance..
When he saw him leaving the reception room, Roman Dmitry looked at the place he had left..
‘Hector Kingdom. Even with Edwin Hector alone, they are worth bringing in for future plans..’
beyond the body.
I looked inside.
Edwin Hector did not waste the past year and became stronger than before..
Explosive magic seething from within.
As my understanding of magic increased through Felix, I realized how great Edwin Hector's value was..
his growth.
It was explosive.
In the war against Kronos, Edwin Hector was a person who would definitely play his role..
It was fun.
From enemy to friend.
The wheel of fate connected their relationship..
and at that time.
Another relationship, driven by the fate of Roman Dmitry, enters the vortex of fate.
