There was silence in the conference room..
The Count of Denver's Remarks.
It's beyond common sense.
Daniel Cairo spoke in a somewhat weak voice..
“……I admit that Roman Dmitry is a great prosecutor. It is a blessing from the Kingdom of Cairo that he defeated Homer and proved himself to be a three-star swordsman when he was only in his 20s. But don’t the people gathered here know this well? The fact that Roman Dmitry cannot have any influence on the general trend..”
Four factions in Cairo.
The reason they want Roman is because of his future value..
Everyone is rushing to recruit Roman because he achieved 3 stars at a young age, but if we simply compare his current strength, there are many people stronger than him..
That means.
Against the kingdom of Hector, Roman Dmitry was nothing..
Roman's plan to cause internal division seemed like nothing more than a ploy by young blood who had not yet experienced the world properly..
Just this time.
Marquis Benedict also took the king's side..
“My thoughts are the same. Roman Dmitry is the future of Cairo. Rather than losing our country's talented people for no reason, it is more important to minimize damage to the kingdom through wise judgment. In any case, hasn't the southern front already fallen to Hector's kingdom? It's a fight we lost from the start.”
It was a realistic decision.
furthermore.
Roman Dmitry is someone Marquis Benedict hopes to recruit..
I couldn't let him die like this..
Since we had laid sufficient groundwork starting from the Southern Training Center, we planned to recruit them as soon as we could fulfill our national defense obligations..
It was an operation that everyone opposed..
Based on the information revealed on the surface, there was no one who would support the Count of Denver..
‘how do i do this.’
The Count of Denver suppressed his laughter..
This is information that allowed us to take the lead in managing rankings..
Telling the truth would change the mood, but the Count of Denver had absolutely no reason to go that far..
Even if Cairo's blood flows.
his mind was in valhalla.
“If everyone's opinion is the same, I won't be unreasonable. However, even though there are three days, I don't think there is a need to give Hector's kingdom what it wants first. It's just 3 days. We will move our troops in preparation for 'war', but if there is no change on the southern front within 3 days, how about accepting the demands of the Kingdom of Hector??”
It was a compromise.
Edwin Hector gave three days..
Time to think it through, but never be able to turn the tide..
The Earl of Denver placed a bet on him..
If Roman could produce meaningful results even in such a short period of time, Roman's value had to be judged once again..
Not just a four-star prosecutor.
A monster worth more than that..
Was it because he thought the Count of Denver’s proposal was reasonable?.
Daniel Cairo thought for a while and nodded with a dark expression..
“……Accept the offer or reject it. We need time. As of now, the Kingdom of Cairo is preparing for both options: war and negotiation with the Kingdom of Hector..”
Just prepare for an emergency.
Everyone except the Count of Denver had accepted the fact that the fight was over the moment the warp gate was captured..
To put it bluntly.
there will be no miracle.
* * *
that time.
Henry Albert felt like his mind was flying..
‘Holy shit.’
Even when I followed Roman on the road.
Henry Albert's heart was filled with unfounded confidence..
When I was with Roman, who slaughtered countless enemies, I somehow felt confident that I could overcome any danger..
But what is this??
Things went wrong from the start.
With my poor physical strength, I couldn't keep up with Roman's troops, and I got lost not long after setting off..
and.
When he finally arrived at the southern training camp after finding the traces, Henry Albert faced reality..
‘Fucked..’
The sight before my eyes was gruesome..
The place that had been peaceful only a short time ago was devastated, and corpses of familiar faces were everywhere..
Roman Dmitry was nowhere to be seen..
It was a moment when my mind became complicated..
With the ominous thought that Roman Dmitry might have been harmed, he hurriedly took a step back..
“retreat to the first line of defense.”
The hero mentality has long since disappeared..
What was needed now was safety.
A fence to protect yourself from the enemies who devastated the southern training camp..
The sight that greeted Henry Albert as he hurried along was that of the first defense line already collapsed and on fire..
“……oh my god.”
I lost my mind.
actually.
He had no idea the situation was this serious..
Although Hector's Kingdom attempted a surprise attack, the 5th defense line was successfully prevented by Roman's performance..
Likewise, I believed that there was hope in other lines of defense as well..
However, upon confirming the reality of the first line of defense burning brightly, Henry Albert collapsed to the ground with his legs shaking..
“it's over.”
first line of defense.
It's a core position.
If the southern training camp had been attacked and collapsed, there was virtually no hope in this war..
I jumped up from my seat..
Cairo was defeated.
However, there was no need to sacrifice yourself..
“Retreat across the mountain right now.!”
“move fast!”
Judgment was quick.
southern mountains.
Although it is not suitable as an escape route due to the rugged terrain, it was a much better option than being bruised and slaughtered here..
Henry Albert ran so hard that his whole body was drenched in sweat..
His low-quality physical strength filled him up to the point of his chin, and his soldiers, who were tired of their comfortable lives, could not hide their distress..
Roman Dmitry's whereabouts are unknown..
But if he chooses to fight.
Staying on the southern front like that was no different from jumping into a fire pit while holding rice straw..
‘Hero of war? I don't need all that fame! You have to live first to do anything!’
I ran for a while.
The surrounding scenery has changed.
In the middle of a mountain full of grass.
Deciding that he was now much safer from danger, Henry Albert put his face down on the ground and took a breath..
“Heo, heo, heo.”
‘lived.’
They're still fighting down there.
It's really safe to go over the mountain..
The moment you think like that.
chuck.
“Shh. Be quiet.”
on his neck.
Someone thrust a cool sword at me.
protagonist of voice.
He was Chris..
Henry Albert, who almost peed his pants, breathed a sigh of relief as soon as he saw Chris' face..
Why did Chris aim his sword?.
This was to block the voice from leaking out..
Chris, who retrieved the sword, took the lead and walked first..
“please follow.”
Is it because of the relief of being alive?.
Henry Albert, who was following Chris, belatedly had doubts..
‘……Why is Roman Dmitry's article here??’
It was strange.
Roman Dmitry said he was heading to the rear positions..
But why does his knight appear in the middle of the mountain?.
I thought it might have something to do with the attack on the southern training camp, but I still didn't understand it..
If it were you.
He would have escaped over the mountain as quickly as possible..
Even though I ran away quite far, I couldn't say I was safe from the enemy's pursuit just yet..
How long did you walk?.
Henry Albert's eyes widened at the surrounding scenery..
‘what's this?’
only a few steps.
The surrounding scenery has changed.
It was a perfectly prepared camp..
A cover of appropriate size covered the soldiers' bodies, and behind it, a space for rest was provided..
It was hard to believe that this was a place built in the middle of a mountain..
If it was a camp of this size, it should have been visible from far away, but when I closed my eyes once and opened them, it suddenly appeared before my eyes..
What was embarrassing was the same for the soldiers..
In response to the soldiers looking around, Henry Albert asked as a representative:.
“When did they create a hideout like this??”
Chris didn't stop walking..
After raising my hand to convey to the guards that I was not in danger, I answered the question without turning around..
“We confirmed that the Southern Training Center was attacked on our way to the rear positions. The main army decided that the rear position had already been collapsed, so they immediately climbed the mountain and built a secret position..”
“Then you should run away over the mountain right away! Why did you stay here??”
Stand tall.
stopped walking.
Chris looked back at Henry Albert, and his eyes showed some disgust..
“The war is not over yet. The reason we remain here is to protect our allies like Henry and kill the enemies that come up the mountain. Mountains are a great place to deal with many enemies even with a small number of people. If Henry had been Hector's man, the sword aimed at his neck would have cut off his life..”
It was a bloody remark..
My mouth went into it.
There is a wall of social status between Chris and Henry Albert, but since I saw them fighting, I couldn't treat them carelessly..
Roman and his soldiers.
Everyone was a monster.
In particular, Chris showed outstanding fighting skills that could be said to stand out..
‘How does the Dmitry family have such monsters?.’
I swallowed my doubts.
And then he asked a question that must be confirmed..
“……Where is Roman Dmitri? I haven't seen you since before..”
It's already deep inside the camp..
Still, Roman was nowhere to be seen..
To that question.
Chris said calmly.
“The lord is now directly dealing with the enemies on the front lines..”
Henry Albert's face turns pale.
It was as expected.
Roman Dmitry.
he was crazy.
* * *
The victory or defeat of a war is directly linked to a clear conclusion..
death of a loser.
Immediately after the first defense line collapsed, the troops fleeing there were one-sidedly massacred by their pursuers..
Suddenly!
“Wow.”
“Ugh!”
There was no way to survive.
The soldiers of Cairo struggled as they were attacked from all sides, but fell one after another, screaming at the hands of merciless hands..
Edwin Hector nailed it that there was no need for many prisoners..
Since the entire southern front had to be swallowed up in a short period of time, it was judged that taking many prisoners was rather dangerous..
massacre.
Blood and death were rampant..
With the troops dwindling in an instant, Brandt, who was one of the adjutants of the first defense line, could not hide his pale expression..
‘Donald, this dog.’
before being attacked.
Brandt witnessed Count Donald receiving a call from Roman..
If only I had listened to Roman back then.
The worst would have been avoided.
Mercury was chosen with baseless courage, and the first line of defense ended up falling before it could hold out for long..
‘Hector's Kingdom is fully prepared. Starting with a surprise attack, occupying the rear position, and even flares. This is a fight we can't win. That's probably why Roman Dmitry suggested running away to the mountains. They said it was for guerrilla operations, but that meant abandoning the southern front..’
I didn't mean to say it was cowardly..
That's the right decision..
As a reward for letting down the guard, the rear gate of the southern front was captured, and from that moment on, the outcome of the war was already decided..
crushing defeat.
A fishy taste lingered on the tip of my tongue..
It wasn't even covered in blood, but the smell of blood was enough to make my nose tingle..
puck!
right beside.
The soldier's face fell to the ground..
In a situation where a spear pierced the back of a soldier's head, Brandt instinctively swung his sword at the enemy..
sudden!
“……!”
a narrow difference.
the attack failed.
As he faced the angry gaze of what appeared to be a knight, Brandt got goosebumps all over his body..
‘Is this the end?.’
The attack movement was too loud..
I knew it from the moment the first line of defense collapsed..
He realized that he and all the troops on the southern front would not return alive..
I gritted my teeth.
The moment when you accept death and make a final counterattack.
Suddenly!
Phuwak.
blood splattered.
Hector's knight's head floating in the sky.
Brandt's gaze was filled with astonishment, and a man with black hair suddenly appeared..
