321angry prisoner of war (6)

Remarks by the Marquis of Memphis.

I couldn't deny it.

No matter what was expected, Roman Dmitry achieved victory with bold steps that exceeded it every time..

In particular, his participation in the Valhalla festival despite knowing that Valhalla and Kronos were simultaneously seeking Roman Dmitry's life clearly proved what kind of being he was..

I was not swayed at all by the objective power difference..

Although it was obviously impossible for Dmitri to deal with the two empires with his strength alone, he managed to turn the situation around with his personal abilities..

The Marquis of Creut also acknowledged it..

There was no way to punish Roman Dmitry unless he was prepared to go to extremes once again..

but.

“I know. What kind of person is Roman Dmitry? Unlike the beings who trembled at the value of Kronos' name, Roman Dmitri never backs down. By the way. We are the Kronos Empire. Kronos' identity lies in dominating, and we do not care what the opponent is. Just like Roman Dmitry.!”

a series of circumstances.

I understood it in my head.

I didn't know what the Marquis of Memphis was talking about, but Kronos is not a country that is widely accepted as common sense..

“When a truce was concluded with Dmitry. I really couldn't accept that choice. I think most people here are probably no different from me. Since when did we start accepting compromises with our enemies? Kronos was a country that made the enemy kneel and admit its mistake even if it slapped the enemy simply because it did not like it. No matter how much others criticize Kronos for his irrationality. We were proud of the fact that the Kronos Empire was such a powerful nation.!”

recent.

I didn't like Kronos' actions..

In a history marred by defeat, the Marquis of Creut had no intention of just watching idly..

“Please tell me the truth. Why did His Majesty Emperor Kronos enter into rest, and what are his plans for a year from now? If you don't tell us the truth, we'll need special measures this time..”

was strong.

Looking at the Marquis of Memphis, his voice gained strength..

It was an imminent situation..

The nobles gathered in the conference room held their breath, and the Marquis of Memphis looked at the Marquis of Creut without saying a word..

conversation was cut off.

The Marquis of Creut clearly expressed his thoughts, but his face grew hotter as time went by as he received no response..

“Are you really saying you want to come out like that? All right. I will go back to my territory, find like-minded people and make this issue public..”

slap.

I took a step back.

With an angry face, I left the conference room..

It was unimaginable just a year ago..

The Marquis of Memphis was a representative of Emperor Kronos, and raising one's voice against him, even if he was not the emperor himself, could be taken as defiance..

Emperor Kronos' authority came from overwhelming power..

Continued defeats were gradually collapsing the seemingly indestructible authority..

It was then.

Zech.

I heard the sound of something being pulled out..

The moment the Marquis of Creut turned his head at the strange sight, a strong shock penetrated his abdomen..

deeply!

sword piercing the abdomen.

I widened my eyes..

In my violently shaking vision, I saw the face of the Marquis of Memphis, stained with madness..

* * *

I cried out and spit out blood..

Kneeling over his weakened body, the Marquis of Creut looked up at his opponent with eyes of disbelief..

“……Oh, why on earth?”

Creut family.

He is a powerful figure in the empire..

No matter how little it has been pushed out, it is not something that can be dealt with so easily..

As he tried to pull out the sword with a pitiful hand, the Marquis of Memphis stabbed it in with even more force and laughed..

“Don't be mistaken. The foundation of the Kronos Empire all came from His Majesty the Emperor. But why should I let someone like you who questions His Majesty's orders live and send them back??”

Phuwak.

drew the sword.

With blood gushing out, the Marquis of Creut fell to the floor and lost focus..

“Castro.”

“yes.”

“I hereby order as the representative of His Majesty the Emperor. Send troops right now and kill everyone associated with the Creut family. Regardless of simple blood relations, beings who had a close relationship with Creut were also included in the purge list. This is to correct Kronos’ discipline. It must be handled reliably so that there is not a single exception..”

“All right.”

Chronos Ranking #1.

Castro, the head of the Royal Knights, walked with a calm expression..

The atmosphere was cold and frozen..

No one could have imagined that the Creut family would fall so vainly..

The Marquis of Memphis turned his head..

As the nobles looked away in surprise, they showed blood-stained smiles..

“Kreut is an idiot. He was born as an aristocrat of the Kronos Empire and spewed out outrageous remarks that denied the history of the empire. Keep in mind. The history of the Kronos Empire has never allowed defeat even once. It's not because the opponents were weak. There were beings who displayed considerable dignity, such as Roman Dmitri, but they always knelt down and bowed their heads towards Kronos..”

walked behind the nobles.

The nobles could not turn their heads at the ferocious voice and the blood dripping on the floor..

“If anyone has any doubts about Kronos' victory. Look back at the history of the continent. How Kronos has won so far. Why is Kronos called the greatest power on the continent? The power that Roman Dmitry faced was only a portion of Kronos. The stupid and pathetic guys are already cheering as if they have defeated Kronos just by destroying a part of him, but those who know the truth about Kronos do not doubt victory. Victory was planned from the beginning. However, it is up to His Majesty the Emperor to decide to what extent victory will be achieved, and Roman Dmitry has provoked his anger..”

1year.

The count has begun.

When Emperor Kronos raises his forces once again, nothing will be able to stop him then..

“Have faith in His Majesty the Emperor. As history repeats itself, the history of victory will forever be with the Kronos Empire..”

admitted.

Kronos is.

Never once did he show his full power..

People did not dare to think of confronting the Kronos Empire, as only a portion of it overwhelmed the continent..

I bowed my head..

people realized.

marquis of memphis.

How he established himself as a powerful person.

He possessed outstanding ability and a cruel aspect that earned him that position, but above all, it was his blind faith in the imperial family that made him the current Marquis of Memphis..

Emperor Kronos's favorite imperial dog.

No matter how he was evaluated by later generations, the Marquis of Memphis remained faithful to his role as a stooge of power..

sat at the head of the table.

And then.

“Never again, like the foolish Marquis of Creut, doubt the strength of the Empire..”

With an indifferent expression, he wiped the blood from his face..

* * *

Dmitry's actions.

The world turned upside down.

Even when the rumor first spread, people doubted the truth of the news from Dmitry..

“Dmitri attacks Kronos.!”

“……Are they really trying to invalidate the ceasefire negotiations like this?.”

“Roman Dmitry is definitely not an ordinary person. Just because the Kronos Empire hid Dmitri's prisoners, he led his troops across the border without a moment's hesitation. The problem is the Kronos Empire's response. Even if there was no intention to actually declare war, there is no way the Empire would sit still..”

People's attention was focused.

It was impossible to predict what outcome Roman Dmitry's bold move would lead to..

however.

“Holy crap. It is said that Roman Dmitri killed all those who tortured prisoners in Kronos' territory.!”

“Did the Kronos Empire just give up the prisoners? The world has definitely changed. As we know, for the Kronos Empire, it is normal to raise one's voice against the enemy, but since the opponent is Roman Dmitry, they compromise to some extent. Actually, if you think about it, they even gave 500,000 gold for a ceasefire, but they can't resume the war because of their own problems..”

“Will the ceasefire negotiations be maintained through this?.”

After some time.

2car shock hit people.

Dmitry's Attack.

Ordinary people could not maintain their composure when they heard that the front-line defense position had been captured even though the promise had been fulfilled..

“……In the end, you crossed the line.”

“it's over. Now there's no way to stop the Second Continental War.”

“I don't know if this is a good thing for Dmitry in the end, but if I were Dmitry's person, my loyalty to Roman Dmitry would be stronger. Just because he hid and tortured Dmitri's prisoners, he crossed Kronos' borders and launched an attack himself..”

Second Continental War.

There was an uproar.

People were convinced of war.

Kronos was attacked like this, and I thought there was no reason to keep the armistice until the end..

one day, two days.

time has passed.

Unlike people making a fuss and preparing for war, the Kronos Empire did not show any action..

* * *

The world was in chaos.

The words of people talking about the possibility of war also flowed into Edwin Hector's ears..

‘How on earth does Roman Dmitry make such a bold decision?.’

saw the situation differently.

if.

If you were in Roman Dmitry's position, would you have been able to retrieve Dmitry's prisoners in the same way?.

it was impossible.

If it really turned into a war, it would not be good for Dmitry, so he would have thought about ways to retrieve the prisoners, citing the details of the 'armistice negotiations' as much as possible..

That was common sense..

As it is a sensitive issue, in order to avoid bloodshed, the politics between countries is to compromise appropriately even with the enemy..

however.

Roman Dmitry did something unconventional..

I crossed the border.

Killed those associated with the prisoners..

As if that wasn't enough, they burned down the front line defense positions, but the Kronos Empire did not respond in any way..

It was a difference in power.

Because Roman Dmitry had shown clear results so far, no matter how much the empire was, they knew that if they provoked Roman Dmitry, it would be difficult for them to handle it..

it was amazing.

Kronos, who never considered equals except the Empire, took a step back following the truce..

I was impressed.

Roman Dmitry's actions exceeded Edwin Hector's expectations every time..

‘However, this cannot be said to be unconditionally a good thing for Dmitry. From ceasefire negotiations to this issue. Kronos, who did not allow compromise, is suppressing his anger as much as possible. This is not a simple problem. Rather than repeating mistakes due to continued defeat, it means reflecting on one's own problems and giving up some of one's pride in order to achieve a clear victory. If the Kronos Empire once again reveals its ambition to conquer the continent. Dmitry and Kronos. Beings like hot fire will clash head-on without retreating and decide the direction of the continent..’

I was sure.

In the future, the news of people praising Dmitri did not sound very pleasant..

The world has changed rapidly.

In the past, the world allowed the weak to take their place, but in the future, if one does not choose one side, the country's fate will be at risk..

‘I can't protect Hector at my level right now. You have to be strong. Help Dmitry and thwart the ambitions of the Kronos Empire. We must become strong at all costs..’

took a step.

Not Prince Edwin Hector.

Now was the time to go through an intense time as a wizard..

* * *

same topic.

same information.

But I had different thoughts about him..

While Edwin Hector grew concerned about Kronos, the Frankish king focused on other points..

“Ugh. The Frankish Kingdom is experiencing a revival thanks to a wise king.!”

crossroads of choice.

The Frankish King chose Dmitri.

At that time, there was a lot of talk within the kingdom, and not only was winning the war not enough, but the recent move to overwhelm the Kronos Empire made him happy..

A great shift in power was taking place..

Originally, everything was controlled by the continent's two major mountain ranges, Kronos and Valhalla, but now Dmitry was between them..

new power.

Dmitry's status has changed..

If we think about the future that will change around them in the future, it was necessary to quickly lay the groundwork starting now..

“So, the way to impress Dmitri is to?”

The opponent was Count Samir..

A being trusted by the King of Franks.

I gave him a special order, and now it was time to check the results..

“Dmitri has a special event scheduled at the moment..”

“……special event?”

“yes. Isn't Roman Dmitry famous for being horrible to his people? However, Lauren Dmitry, the third son of the Dmitry family, was recently promoted to Class A at the Cairo Royal Academy. There is a promotion ceremony scheduled for 5 days from now, and there is a very high probability that Duke Dmitry will attend the ceremony..”

“okay?”

My eyes widened..

I was intrigued..

Certainly, a person of Lauren Dmitry's caliber could be said to be an important figure in the Dmitry family..

King of the Franks said.

“Call a meeting right now! What Dmitry will like will be decided through a meeting..”

Eyes burning with intense desire.

That's simply.

It was not a phenomenon limited to the Frankish Kingdom..

D-day 5th.

In conjunction with this prisoner incident, the attention of the Salamander Continent began to turn to the Cairo Royal Academy..
