The Heavenly Demon Can't Live Ordinarily - Episode 577
577The story of those left behind (1)
a month ago from now.
In a forbidden area where ordinary people are not allowed to enter, Dmitri's wizards are busy preparing something..
It was hundreds of teleportation magic circles.
Teleportation is a popular means of transportation in magical civilization, but it was absurd for so many magic circles to operate at the same time..
“I'm ready.”
“operate.”
“yes.”
Wow!.
Hundreds of magic circles emit bright light simultaneously..
In a space overflowing with mana, like a furnace radiating hot heat, wizards sent magic items called memory stones across the dimension..
One thousand per magic circle. Knowing that most of them would be destroyed if they crossed dimensions, I poured in with the hope that at least one would succeed..
It was a day that repeated itself every day..
Seeing wizards working with familiar faces, a man approached next to the wizard who gave orders..
“Is there any news??”
“Ah, Chris..”
identity of the man.
It was Chris.
The wizard who found Chris smiled bitterly..
“There is no special harvest yet. Although abnormal signals have been sent from several dimensions, our conclusion is that they have nothing to do with His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry..”
“It's already been 1 year. There is a rumor going around in the world that the budget spent on this is meaningless. Of course, this does not mean that we should stop searching for His Majesty the Emperor. However, there are many opinions that we should focus on researching how to find clues such as 'memory stones' rather than sending them across dimensions..”
“I understand.”
1years ago.
After Roman Dmitri disappeared, Phoenix's magic tower owner, Felix, succeeded in reaching the realm 'beyond the dimension' after numerous experiments..
The problem is that we are not sure which world it is connected to, and the creature's weak body could not pass the boundary of the dimension..
So I chose to send things like memory stones across the dimension..
If someone knew Roman Dmitri or if he could obtain the memory stone, the intention was to receive a signal so that he could identify one of the many dimensions..
A year passed like that..
The experiment was repeated every day, but there was no particular gain..
Felix said.
“Thousands of mana stones are used to operate hundreds of teleportation magic circles every day, and the fire in the magic laboratory has never been turned off for the past year to create hundreds of thousands of memory stones to send across dimensions. At first, I thought there was definitely hope, but now it is true that I too am skeptical about the repeating results. So, I visited Duke Valentino. Since I am someone who is responsible for the astronomical amount of money used in experiments, I tried to explain the situation and find another direction..”
magic experiment.
Although it was a burden of course for the Dmitry Empire, Duke Valentino declared that he would fully support Felix's experiment..
It was literally pouring water into a bottomless pot..
Even though there was no result, he didn't stop investing, and to the point, people were even saying that Duke Valentino was earning like a dog and investing all his money in Roman Dmitry..
Of course, he managed to make up the money by running the best business on the continent, but Felix felt sorry for the lack of income..
however.
When Felix visited, Duke Valentino said this:.
“He told me not to stop experimenting because I could waste all my money. If people's concerns are about outcomes without income, they will spit out as much money as they can, so proceed with both. And above all, the Empire is maintaining its position of full support. But how can I say that we should give up on this even if it is only a 0.1% possibility??”
Chris looked away..
I gritted my teeth in a miserable feeling..
everyone was trying.
I thought that if they could find even a trace of life, people would be very happy to hold on..
I didn't say this because I wanted him to give up too..
but.
Someone just had to tell the truth.
As Chris was about to offer words of encouragement again, he saw a soldier running towards him from afar, panting..
“Chris! Chris! There is something you need to check!”
an urgent voice.
wide open eyes.
Chris's heart began to pound as he saw the soldier approaching him..
* * *
A man was lying on the floor..
Seeing her motionless like a dead person, Chris asked Isabelle, who was once called a saint, with a nervous look on her face..
“What on earth is going on??”
“I think Henry Albert's spirit has been summoned by someone. At first, he suspected sudden death, but when he borrowed the power of God to confirm, only the soul disappeared while the body was still alive. It may be a premature judgment, but considering the magic link remaining in the body, I believe it was artificially summoned..”
“That means…….”
“yes. Beyond this dimension, it means that someone has finally responded to our earnestness..”
Moment.
I was overwhelmed with emotions..
Knowing that all his efforts had not been in vain, Chris tried to suppress his emotions and asked again..
“But why Henry Albert??”
“It may be a simple coincidence, but if we assume that Henry Albert was identified, we can assume that the existence of the 'biography' formed a link with Henry Albert. As you know, Henry Albert spent his own money to produce his biography and sent it across the dimension. If someone from beyond the dimension used a biography as a medium, Henry Albert, who left the most traces on the medium, would have been identified..”
“……In the end, it means that we can only confirm for sure when Henry Albert wakes up..”
“that's right.”
a glimpse of possibility.
That was enough.
In a situation where I couldn't expect anything, I felt happy that I could hope for something unknown..
News of Henry Albert soon spread across the continent..
People came to see Henry Albert in person, and among them was Kevin, who was known to wander the world..
After deciding to find Roman Dmitry. Kevin left Dmitry's empire again.
I have been wandering the world, thinking that there might be a clue left somewhere in the world..
Now Kevin is by Henry Albert's side..
Knowing that the soul cannot return once the body dies, he stayed by his side and never left for a moment..
“I will protect it.”
calm face.
calm voice.
Kevin stayed by Henry Albert's side like a stone..
After 15 days, Chris told him to get some rest, but there was no way to stop Kevin, who stubbornly persisted..
A character that cannot be controlled by anyone other than Roman Dmitry. He was Kevin..
Chris understood Kevin's feelings, so he didn't try to control him any further than that in the first place..
time has passed.
People who were hopeful at first showed concern that Henry Albert might die like this..
everyone came.
Everyone knelt down and prayed to Henry Albert..
please come back alive.
Please come find a clue.
one month like that.
When people looked for Henry Albert as usual, he was lying like a corpse and finally opened his eyes..
* * *
a muddy voice.
Although the voice was unclear and difficult to understand immediately, people understood exactly what Henry Albert was trying to say..
“Yes, I met His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry. I finally met him.”
In those words.
“AA AA AA!”
“Oh God!”
“Thank you, I really appreciate it.!”
The huge space was filled with cheers..
People cheered enthusiastically, and even though no one told them to, they sat down and expressed their gratitude to God..
Roman Dmitry's survival. It was the hope that people desperately hoped for..
The mere fact that Roman Dmitry was alive had people shedding tears and repeatedly expressing gratitude..
I'm glad Chris and Kevin did the same..
But rather than shedding tears of joy, they grabbed hold of Henry Albert, who knew something, and asked.
“Is your Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry safe??”
“Where on earth is it??”
“What happened??”
“Have you found a way to travel between dimensions??”
“His Majesty the Emperor…….”
It was truly a question killer..
Henry Albert felt dizzy as the effects of the possession had not yet subsided, but he did not want to turn away his earnest eyes..
I held back the nauseating feeling rising up. I may not be able to answer all the questions right now, but I know what answers they need..
There was pain in my lip..
Although his dry lips were cracked, Henry Albert struggled to speak of his hope for Dmitry..
“His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry is alive and well. And he said to me.”
It was still clear.
The image of Roman Dmitry speaking to himself..
“Your Majesty is also trying to come back to us..”

Alves of Dmitry Guards.
He looked nervous..
First assigned to the security corps, he was given the important task of managing entry and exit into the Dmitry Empire..
As the first time is very important for everyone, Alves could not sleep at night thinking about this day..
‘Let's do well, we can do well..’
1,000 : 1competition rate.
Having defeated numerous competitors to win this position, Alves wanted to end the day on a really great note..
So that later he can brag to his children about what a great job he did..
So that when you go home at the end of the day, your parents will look at you and be proud of you..
I made up my mind.
Senior said nothing special would happen.
He said with a smile that he could quickly get used to it since most of the time it was to control the entry and exit of ordinary citizens..
and now.
The security guard is on alert..
Alves felt like he was going out of his mind from the first day..
“Duke Valentino is entering!”
“Marquis Fabius is entering.!”
“Count Lawrence enters!”
.
.
Dmitry's giants.
They appeared one after another..
That alone was enough to make my eyes water, but it was nothing compared to what was about to happen..
“The King of Cairo enters!”
“King Hector enters!”
“Emperor Kronos enters!”
“The Emperor of Valhalla enters!”
Really.
Big names that were difficult to handle continued to appear..
At first, I made a fuss about the names of high-ranking nobles, but when leaders from various countries appeared, from then on, my heart stopped fluttering over the nobles' business cards..
What on earth is going on? Alves was so focused on his security duties that he did not know what was going on in Dmitry..
It certainly didn't seem like an unusual thing, but a newly appointed employee couldn't dare ask questions to a senior..
‘Did a continental war break out?.’
I was sweating profusely..
Seeing him continuing his work even though he was exhausted, the man in charge of Dmitry's security guard approached him and said,.
“Alves.”
“yes? yes?!”
I was so surprised.
The guard captain looked at Alves and smiled..
“I understand that this is a very difficult day for you. I'm not used to the job yet, so it must be very difficult to deal with people I've never met in my life all in one day. But I hope you enjoy this moment.”
I looked away.
Although they were great people, they seemed to follow Dmitry's procedures..
“It may be a difficult first shift now, but in the future, a day will come when you will be proud of it. This landscape we face. This is the sincerity of those who think of His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry, the owner of this country..”
In those words.
Alves looked at the guard captain with a blank expression..
At the time, he didn't know the meaning of those words, but like the guard captain said, he would never forget this moment for the rest of his life..
* * *
Dmitry's conference room.
Dmitry's Empire, and all the great figures of each country attended..
It could be said that they literally represented the entire continent, and they waited for ‘one person’ with calm faces..
After the disappearance of Roman Dmitry.
The emperor's position became vacant..
In the meantime, there was someone who led the country as an agent rather than someone taking that position..
Squeak.
“King Rodwell Dmitry enters.”
king of arcadia.
He appeared in front of people.
