253Tue international conference (1)
people flocked.
People crowded the streets where the aftermath of the war had not disappeared to check on Roman Dmitry's safety..
They also heard the rumor.
While Dmitry spent a fierce time with the Kronos Empire, Roman Dmitry lived in even greater danger..
With the occasional news, people hoped for his safe return..
Finally.
Roman Dmitry appears.
As evidence of their hardships, the performance of Roman Dmitry and other soldiers was not good..
but.
People's reaction was enthusiastic.
Even though their behavior was shabby, I heard clearly what kind of results they had achieved..
“You are proud of Dmitry!”
“Thank you so much for your hard work!”
“Congratulations on rising to the continental rankings.!”
Barbossa.
I cut off the head of a man called the Twelve Swords of the Continent..
Not only that, but the faces of the people killed by Roman Dmitry during his return to Dmitry were spectacular..
Dmitry's people couldn't help but feel proud..
Throughout the history of the continent, there has never been a case where a person who was not a member of the empire entered the top rankings, but Roman Dmitry defeated the strongest person at the top..
Its meaning is not simple.
Even if Dmitry is a weak nation that has just been created, its status will be completely changed by the presence of only one person, Roman Dmitry..
The appearance of a triumphant general.
people were excited.
Roman Dmitry accepted their gaze and went straight to his parents..
“I'm home.”
“Roman! Are you hurt anywhere??”
As soon as her mother, Rihanna Dmitry, discovered Roman, she came running to him making a fuss..
son's rumor.
You don't know how anxious I was.
Rihanna Dmitry was known for being gentle and dignified, but she couldn't save face when it came to her son's affairs..
We had a brief reunion as parent and child..
Rihanna Dmitry carefully examined her body and only after confirming that there was no problem, she took a step back with a relieved expression..
Only then did Duke Dmitry ask:.
“You probably know what happened with Dmitry. Son. How do you think it would be best to handle this matter?.”
this incident.
It wasn't a problem that could just be overlooked..
The Kronos Empire violated continental law and attacked Dmitry, and if it was not raised somehow, it could set a bad precedent..
After defeating the Kronos Empire. Dmitry had to deal with the pain of war..
The war was a complete victory, but that didn't mean no one died..
In the past few days, Dmitry has been shaken..
Those who wanted to retaliate against this and those who wanted to deal with the empire had a sharp conflict of opinion..
at last.
Duke Dmitry passed the choice.
He looked at Roman Dmitry and spoke with a determined expression..
“Dmitry received the title of principality, and the major and minor affairs of this country became your responsibility. It is not important that I be called the master of this country. Roman. Please keep this fact in mind. Whatever choice you make, I, Romero Dmitri. And Principality Dmitry will follow your judgment..”
extreme disagreement.
It was a matter that could be resolved with Roman Dmitry's opinion..
whatever choice you make.
no one will question.
In Dmitry, Roman Dmitry was such a being.
“All right.”
At the end of that conversation.
Roman Dmitry has resigned from his position..
* * *
walked down the hallway.
While moving, Lucas walked along and explained the situation so far..
“This war has caused considerable damage to Dmitry. Despite full preparations, the opponent mobilized more troops than expected, and the Kronos Empire in particular is believed to have moved its troops without using the 'warp gate'. We will investigate this in detail and report back..”
I glanced at Roman Dmitry’s gaze..
I couldn't predict how he would take what I said starting now..
“……And Kevin and Henderson are in very bad shape. While protecting Duke Dmitry's residence, they were fatally wounded by a 6-star aura swordsman mobilized by the opponent, and both are now on the brink of death. Henderson's condition is particularly serious. Yesterday evening, I briefly stopped breathing, but fortunately, thanks to the therapist's immediate response, I was able to overcome this dangerous situation..”
It was the light and dark side of war..
The fact that Dmitri defeated Kronos was a great achievement, but Lucas couldn't help but feel uncomfortable because of the people who were injured in the war..
Moreover, in Henderson's case, he was the same person who applied to recruit private soldiers..
While I was in charge of the intelligence guild, I didn't have much time to hang out with others, but since Henderson had a very friendly personality, I formed a very close relationship with Lucas..
He is like that.
fell down.
What happened that day that people told me about, just hearing it made Lucas' face turn red..
“Does that mean he's not dead yet?.”
“yes.”
now.
He was heading to where the injured were..
From the moment Roman Dmitry first arrived, he showed a calm expression that made it hard to tell his intentions..
Despite the cheers of people.
To reunite with my parents.
I was calm.
And that, for some reason, caused Lucas to feel fear..
* * *
Kevin and Henderson.
I looked down at the two unconscious figures on the hospital bed..
Even though the bandages were changed several times, the bandages on their wounds were reddish in color..
the therapist said.
“I think today will be a critical day. We are somehow holding on to our lives with the best potions and the power of the priests, but our condition is not very good. Kevin has healed many of his injuries, but he can't figure out why he can't come to his senses, and Henderson's wounds are so severe that all of his ribs are shattered, making recovery difficult even with the best potions. In addition, a 'dark aura' is infiltrating his body, hindering his recovery..”
it meant death.
Although he was hopeful, the therapist implied that he had gone beyond the scope of his treatment..
‘In the end, this is what happened.’
suddenly.
Painful memories came to mind.
Of the four beings who followed the Heavenly Demon Baek Jung-hyuk, not all of them survived to the end and enjoyed wealth and fame..
Gwangma.
He is dead.
In the process of dealing with the two factions, he took charge of the battlefield without Baek Jung-hyuk, and although he fell into a trap, he slaughtered numerous enemies and led the war to victory..
In return, he faced death with weapons stuck all over his body. In the process of conquering Wulin, he couldn't just have fun..
Just as there is sadness if there is joy, the being whom Baek Jung-hyuk, the Heavenly Demon, trusted most had no choice but to face death in return for his trust..
It was a dark reality.
The larger the area you control, the larger the area you control..
The subordinates had to bear the risk..
And the person he trusted was rather risky to trust..
what happened that day.
Baek Jung-hyuk was angry..
We knew that someone was bound to die during the war, but we held a memorial service for the fact that that being was Gwangma..
The location of the memorial service was Gupilbang..
The war at that time resulted in the Sisan, Blood and Sea, and from then on, the discouraged Murim people of the political faction declared their surrender by raising white flags one after another..
if.
Even if he could turn back time, Roman Dmitry wouldn't change his choice..
Because I trust Kevin and Henderson, there was no one better suited to take over the position I left..
It was the price of trust.
They did not give up their faith and risked their lives to prove the results..
‘I decided to live my life as a Heavenly Demon even in this life. My life has always been full of struggles, so changing my surroundings didn't mean I could become what people called Roman Dmitry. Therefore, the death of those who follow me is a natural result. The higher I aim. If I don't allow anyone to look down on me, I have no choice but to walk down a dangerous path..’
expected.
Their sacrifices.
But in the world he wanted in the future, he couldn't solve all the problems himself..
Unlike other times, in a situation where one cannot choose between the two,.
As Roman Dmitry departs for Valhalla to face the threat of his enemies head-on, Dmitry makes the choice to leave things to those he trusts..
It was a choice for Dmitry..
Dmitri had to prove that Dmitri alone would not collapse..
The result was ideal.
Kronos was defeated, but Roman Dmitry's emotions were boiling over from the moment he arrived at Dmitry..
I was angry.
It was different from my previous life.
I was angry about Gwangma's death back then, but not as passionately as I am now..
present life.
I accepted many relationships..
Rather than my previous life in which I pursued the path of defeat, I considered human relationships centered around myself to be slightly more important..
so that.
I couldn't let them die..
He decided that it was their will to live that kept them going until the end until he arrived..
“I will personally conduct treatment for Kevin and Henderson. So, make room for healing.”
gave an order.
The important issue now is.
It was to save them..
* * *
moved location.
Roman Dmitry placed Kevin and Henderson on the floor, crossed his legs, and placed his hands near their hearts..
‘Contemplating the body starting from the source of life.’
Hwaak.
Mana arose.
The mana that rose from Roman Dmitri permeated their bodies and very slowly caressed their hearts and assimilated into their bodies..
One, two, three. my heart was racing.
At first, his, Kevin, and Henderson's hearts beat randomly, but at some point, all three hearts beat at the same time, as if on purpose..
And then.
Mana began to flow in earnest..
The moment Roman Dmitry's mana reached the injured area, extreme pain occurred due to the assimilation of the senses..
‘We must generate vitality with the energy of the previous heaven..’
Treatment currently available.
It was a very dangerous method.
In a past life, there was a being called God, and he gained great fame because he could save even dying people..
But when he died when he was only in his mid-20s. People knew the truth of Shinui..
He did not have great skills, but he saved people by sharing his life force..
Roman Dmitry.
I chose that method.
Innate energy is a power that is born at the moment of birth, and wearing it out means death as a result..
some of that power.
breathed into two bodies.
Roman Dmitry's innate energy was amplified as he entered the realm of the supernatural, so he was willing to give up a portion of his life force for the sake of his subordinates..
Kevin and Henderson became like this while following his orders..
Even if it meant shortening his lifespan, he made the sacrifice for something worthwhile..
Just like they sacrificed.
Roman Dmitry also accepted the sacrifice.
As the innate energy arose, the two bodies naturally regained their vitality and showed the power of self-renewal..
It was a difficult task.
Roman Dmitry's face turned pale, and as time went by, his whole body became drenched in sweat..
Even if you used your innate energy, it wasn't something that could be revived right away..
I'll just do my best to save them, but if heaven doesn't allow them to live even after all this effort, they will have no choice but to die..
but.
I didn't give up first.
Roman Dmitry fell into a trance and devoted himself to the treatment of Kevin and Henderson..
War with Kronos.
there were a lot of problems.
There were many problems to solve, including the start of the war, the Valhalla conspiracy, and the existence of a warlock, but Roman Dmitry put all the problems aside and focused on the reality in front of him..
This does not mean that practical problems are excluded..
When considering the pros and cons of what happened, I just decided that saving their lives was the priority..
That is.
This was the reason why Roman Dmitry wanted to reach the top position..
Rather than prioritizing power and excluding important things, you needed power to do what you wanted..
one day, two days.
So time passed.
About a week after that.
While Roman Dmitry was concentrating on treatment, people outside began to take notice..
