283Tuesday ending (3)
I couldn't believe my ears at first.
How dare you ask an agent of the Kronos Empire to kneel before you, who represents the Emperor's will?.
I distorted my expression..
For him, anger was greater than fear..
“What did you say just now? Kneel down! I followed His Majesty's wishes and visited Kairos to convey the position of the Kronos Empire. As you say, the war is not over yet. Are you really planning to ruin your relationship with Kronos with your hasty remark??”
“If you're thinking of doing that. Will Kronos withdraw his intention to ceasefire?.”
“……?!”
I was embarrassed.
Baron Charlton thought he had no choice but to take a step back from Roman Dmitry's assertion that it was a 'catastrophe'..
The war with Kronos meant destruction.
Even if Dmitry were to miraculously win, it was clear that the damage would be severe, so I believed that Dmitry also hoped for a truce in his heart..
however.
Roman Dmitry did not back down even an inch..
Baron Charlton was at a loss for words as he seemed to not care if the war resumed..
“Baron Charlton.”
It was a cool voice.
Roman Dmitry approached Baron Charlton..
“Let me be clear: I have no intention of ending this war with mediocre results. So, if you want a truce, be clear about your attitude. If you maintain the attitude of looking at me and holding your head upright as if you were the winner, I will cut off your head to show that I am willing to continue the war against the Kronos Empire..”
getting more and more.
I saw it coming.
He didn't take up a weapon, but with Roman Dmitry's strength, killing him with his bare hands was no problem..
‘This guy is completely crazy!’
There was confusion.
As an agent of the Kronos Empire, Baron Charlton wanted to maintain composure until the end, but he could not do so because he knew Roman Dmitry's reputation..
I could tell just by looking at Cortas' work..
Roman Dmitry took prisoners, but rather than using them strategically, he took a firm stance..
Willingness not to compromise with the enemy.
When I remembered the images of those who had died, I realized that it was not best to keep my mouth shut..
widely.
right in front.
Roman Dmitry has reached.
The moment he made eye contact with Roman Dmitry, who was looking down at him, Baron Charlton instinctively knelt down..
Tuk.
“……sorry. As an agent of Kronos, he should have followed the proper procedures, but he overlooked the fact that it was a wartime situation and made a hasty mistake. So, let go of your anger. Rather than a catastrophe with Dmitry, the Kronos Empire seeks to discuss a truce through appropriate compromise..”
* * *
It was a shocking sight.
The person who represents Kronos can be so servile..
it was unprecedented.
Baron Charlton's face was flushed, but he had no courage to show his pride from the moment he knelt down..
Roman Dmitry said.
“We do not believe in the truce with Kronos. For now, it would mean declaring the end of the war, but no matter what conditions the agreement is made, the logic of power cannot bind the war. Baron Charlton. If the Kronos Empire truly wants a truce, we want a clear sign of sincerity, not just lip service..”
“……What do you mean by that?.”
this war.
It began with Dmitry's declaration of war..
However, people well-informed of the news knew that Dmitry was angry due to the Kronos Empire's repeated provocations..
The responsibility for the war lay with the Kronos Empire..
They showed an attitude of disregard for continental law, and there was no law preventing them from showing the same attitude even after signing the armistice..
Those who cross the line.
You can pass it again at any time.
That's why I didn't believe what Kronos said..
What Roman Dmitry wanted was not just a verbal truce, but clear evidence that Dmitry had actually won..
If it weren't for those conditions, I was planning to see it through to the end. Accepting a ceasefire does not mean renouncing hostility.
As Isabel said, if there is a dark side behind Kronos, we just need enough time to prepare for it, but we had no intention of accepting negotiations by pleasing the other party..
This.
It was another war.
Kronos' declaration of truce will become the cornerstone of Roman Dmitry's new kingdom union..
“5010,000 gold. I will accept the armistice if you pay enough war compensation..”
“That's a ridiculous request.!”
Baron Charlton was furious..
5010,000 gold.
At such a huge amount that was beyond imagination, I could not help but forget my fear and become angry..
It was funny to see him kneeling in anger, but there was no laughter in Roman Dmitry's eyes..
“If they show that kind of attitude again, it will be considered a breakdown in negotiations. Innocent people of Cairo and Dmitry died in this war. If you don't give me proper compensation, how can I explain why I signed a truce to those who lost their families? Baron Charlton. I want a winning result and a clear reward. This means that in order to prove to people that his family's death was not in vain, he wants an outcome other than the context of Dmitri defeating Kronos. That is the only condition I wish for. If you do not accept this, we will never negotiate a truce with Kronos again..”
I was speechless.
The uncompromising attitude made Baron Charlton dizzy..
It was a condition that could not be readily accepted..
Even as Baron Charlton, who specialized in diplomacy, the condition of handing over 500,000 gold was beyond his authority..
I suppressed my anger..
Because we can't break the negotiation.
With a trembling voice, I tried my own twist..
“……Are you planning on not including the Kingdom of Odelia in this condition??”
if.
If you want Odelia to survive.
Using that as an excuse, there was room to reduce the compensation of 500,000 gold..
however.
“Why are you asking me about the fate of people who are not even ours??”
A resolute answer.
Looking into those frighteningly cold eyes, Baron Charlton realized deep in his bones what kind of person Roman Dmitry was..
* * *
Negotiations are on hold.
A decision was needed from the emperor, and Baron Charlton, who returned to Kronos, reported the situations he had experienced..
“……This is the situation. Your Majesty the Emperor. Roman Dmitry's cockiness is sky-high. If you make a decision, I will cancel the negotiation table and let the world know about the horrors of the Kronos Empire..”
I bowed my head..
He shouted harshly, hoping to make up for the humiliation he had suffered..
head up.
didn't hear anything.
When Baron Charlton looked up, Emperor Kronos was looking down at him with an 'indifferent face'.
“The moment you accept Dmitry's negotiations, people will talk about the defeat of the Kronos Empire. 500,000 gold is an amount that has a significant impact. But Baron Charlton. I have clearly ordered that this negotiation be successful. Rather than Dmitry's arrogant attitude in asking for 500,000 gold, I am more angry at your weakness for not being able to properly conclude the negotiation and kneeling before those who are not even your peers..”
Moment.
Baron Charlton's expression turned pale..
When he was in a hurry to ask for forgiveness, the knights who received a signal from Emperor Kronos quickly suppressed his body..
Shut up!
“Wow.”
My head was crushed..
Baron Charlton, who was thrown to the ground, shouted with bloodshot face..
“Damn, I committed a deadly sin! Please forgive me just once, just once. If you give me a chance, I will never offend Your Majesty with something like this again.!”
“I will use this truce as the final stage of preparation for the conquest of the continent. What kind of guys are rebelling against me, and who are cheering for Dmitry's victory. I have them all in my sights, and in the not-too-distant future, I will tear them all apart. In the future of Kronos that I think of, beings that lower the status of the empire, even if they are defeated, are not allowed. So, embrace death..”
“this, profit!”
Baron Charlton was struggling..
Like Roman Dmitry, Emperor Kronos also knew no compromises.
Hearing the sound of knights drawing their swords right next to him, he let out a loud scream as he accepted death..
“I have dedicated myself to Kronos all this time! If it's your order, does it make sense to kill me, who crawled like a dog, just because I got down on my knees once? Those of you who are watching quietly are no different. My image may be your future, but will you really just watch my death like that?!”
The nobles of Kronos.
criticized them.
Among them, I glared at the Marquis of Memphis, who had a strong say, but the Marquis of Memphis slightly avoided my gaze..
“If I die! I curse you by remaining in this world…….”
puck!
The sword plunged down..
Blood splattered and a head rolled on the ground..
Baron Charlton.
A person who devoted himself to Kronos died like that..
* * *
“Click, click, click.”
Emperor Kronos.
No, Alexander laughed..
From the moment he ordered Baron Charlton's punishment, Emperor Kronos' consciousness was under his control..
‘Roman Dmitry. You are clearly not an ordinary human being..’
his past life.
It was clear that the existence of the martial arts warrior was at least in a position that his previous life self could not touch..
Otherwise, the current course of action would not have been possible..
Aside from the strength of force, the way things were handled showed the arrogance unique to beings who had reached the peak..
Indeed, what kind of being was it?.
I was interested.
What kind of expression would Roman Dmitry show if he, who was insignificant in his previous life, was put at his feet and revealed the truth?.
Kronos' conquest of the continent was planned for the future..
Roman Dmitry's presence did not seem to be a factor that would disturb him, but rather a source of entertainment that would entertain him..
At the crossroads of choice, he chose magic. Roman Dmitry was the perfect fit to prove that the choice was right..
At one time.
There was a time when I considered martial arts sacred..
He was called the founder of Aura and tried to improve Aura, but his thoughts changed from the moment he met the being in the dark..
People in this world did not know.
We realize that the power we have achieved through our own efforts alone cannot handle the unknown beings who live infinite lives..
From then on, I dreamed of immortality. He had a desire for martial arts, but he did not think martial arts was the answer to conquer the world..
Roman Dmitry will not even be his match..
I was convinced that my age was not enough to even dare to reach the tip of my toes against the person I followed..
so that.
Through Roman Dmitry, he wanted to prove that his choice of magic was right..
Degururu.
Tuk.
My head touched the feet of the Marquis of Memphis..
Seeing his motionless appearance, Alexandre said:.
“Marquis of Memphis. Kill all of Baron Charlton's blood relatives. His death will be a clear example of the consequences of weakness in the Kronos Empire..”
“I obey orders.”
The situation was roughly sorted out..
From now on.
It was time to prepare a gift, such as 500,000 gold, for Roman Dmitry, who must have been intoxicated with victory..
‘I'll show you. Why I chose magic.’
sudden.
The expression changed.
Emperor Kronos, who returned indifferently, looked at Baron Charlton for a moment and then quickly withdrew his gaze..
and then.
Alexandre's consciousness disappeared somewhere beyond space..
* * *
The capital of Odelia.
On the wall, there was a being.
Whining.
flutter.
The robe fluttered..
The black eyes that can be seen at a glance were Alexandre's true body..
“How long will it take for you to blow up this capital city?.”
I heard about what happened at Rascal..
Roman Dmitry cut off the enemy's retreat by setting fire to them and slaughtered 10,000 troops by directly dealing with them..
Now the capital of Odelia is full of people held captive..
If Roman Dmitry had decided to deal with them all, the method in Rascal would have taken quite a bit of time..
People were shocked by what happened that day.
In the human realm, it was clearly an alarming move..
but.
Alexander reached the realm of God.
he.
I stretched out my hand.
“Meteor).”
a voice full of joy.
As his magic power reached the sky, huge meteorites appeared across the sky, staining the world black..
People on earth looked at the scene in fascination..
Some people ran away screaming, others screamed to stop the meteorite, but their struggles were meaningless when it hit the ground..
Kwaang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak.!
Cry rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
There was a huge explosion.
People's screams, people's voices, were engulfed in the explosion and could no longer be heard in Aleksandr's ears..
just one magic.
The capital of Odelia disappeared like that..
