6 hours before communication.

Lucas, in charge of Odelia's Special Intelligence Unit, was informed of the information he had been waiting for.

"Suspicious circumstances have been discovered in Lake Oscal, southwest of Odelia. Even though there was no significant decrease in rainfall, the water depth was noticeably lower, and the number of fish dying for unknown reasons increased. Not only that, but the area around Lake Oscar is famous for its excellent natural scenery, so it was called a tourist attraction in Odelia, and there was a report that the drying out of the plants was similar to the poor crop incident that occurred in the kingdom of Hector."

It was definitely suspicious.

Lucas was given a mission by Roman Dmitry to find the passages of the demon realm, but as he tried to search the entire expanse of Odelia, he had a lot of trouble.

So much time passed.

Most of the efforts so far have failed, but this information strongly stimulated Lucas' instinct.

'There is no result without cause. There's definitely something.'

hastened to walk

He mobilized manpower and wizards to put in place to search the site, and he was able to arrive at Lake Oscar in no time.

"Go ahead with the work."

all right.

The search method was radical.

Since we do not know how the passage of the demon realm is hidden, the water in a certain area of the lake was temporarily removed through the wizards rather than in the form of divers being put in.

I didn't mean to evaporate.

I was thinking of condensing the water by magic to make room to check the bottom, and then fill the lake again.

'If the passage of the demon realm was hidden in Lake Oscar, I can understand why it was difficult to search for it.'

for this mission.

A lot of people and budget were put into it.

In fact, if this amount of time has passed, there should be some result, but the frustration of not being able to find even a trace of the demon realm grew more and more frustrated.

There was no way, even with the powers of the priests.

So I've been doubting my own incompetence lately, and it was only natural that I couldn't find it if I was at the bottom of Lake Oscar.

Oscar.

The lake was so deep and wide that people who first discovered it mistaken it for the sea.

He watched the situation with anxious eyes.

With the depth of the water so low that Oscar's fame faded, the wizards' work didn't seem like it would take too long.

a few hours later.

Finally exposed the floor.

However.

People who had been waiting for the results to see the bottom of the lake opened their eyes and swallowed a moan.

Ugh.

"You crazy."

bottom of the lake.

It was stained black.

The overflowing dark magic meant the passage of the demon realm that I had been searching for, but the problem was its scale.

Darkness engulfed the entire bottom of the lake.

On a scale beyond common sense, even Lucas lost his words.

immediately after reporting.

Immediately, the leaders were convened.

Not only Dmitry, but also representatives of each country attended, and with everyone watching, Lucas reported the situation.

" As a result of analyzing the magic of darkness by sending in priests, it was confirmed that it was a passage connected to the demon realm. The problem is its size. If the passage is enough to color the entire bottom of Lake Oscar, the moment the passage is connected, not only can you assimilate with the demon realm, but also millions of monsters can come to the earth in a short time."

"Millions."

"When did you get ready for that?"

It was disappointing news.

As some characters couldn't hide their emotions, Lucas added.

"Perhaps Alexander has secretly secured the passageway to the Demon Realm. As the magical powers weakened upon his death, the dark energy was revealed, and we were able to capture these phenomena and determine the location of the passage. It is impossible to close the passage of the demon realm again. Since we are already fully established in the earthly world, we have no choice but to prepare for the catastrophe that will come through the passage of the demon realm."

then.

It was an alternative.

Whether it's going to the Demon Realm to deal with the culprits, or waiting for the enemies to come through the passage.

There was no peaceful way.

Edwin Hector said.

" If the passage to the demon realm opens, does assimilation with the demon realm mean that they will use their full power."

Yes.

"His Majesty the Emperor. The disaster is now a reality. If we cannot avoid the calamity that will befall this world, I think attacking the Demon Realm is another way, as I said before. I have seen Hector's people tormented by the powers of darkness. If you fight the demons of the demon realm in the human habitation, even if you win, you will not be able to rejoice in that victory."

He chose the former.

It was a bold choice.

If the magic of darkness was introduced into the earth world through assimilation with the demon realm, the same problem as Hector's poor harvest could have arisen.

Edwin Hector was concerned about such a situation.

I thought that if it was a war that had to be faced anyway, at least we had to come up with a way to protect the human habitation.

Some nodded.

They agreed with Edwin Hector, but not everyone here was positive.

The conclusion of the last meeting was the Conquest of the Demon Realm.

But now that the size of the aisle has been confirmed, Chris is against it.

"I think the opposite. The size of the passage means the enemy's power can far exceed expectations. The demon realm is the realm of the unknown. If they set foot in an area they are familiar with, mankind may face an irreversible disaster. Even at the cost of sacrifice, we have to fight in our land. If we prepare for the enemy's attack in advance, we can save our lives, even if there are many problems with the dark magic."

"I agree with that statement. But what happened to Hector was too much of a disaster to bear."

"Is there no other way? Sacrifice is inevitable in war. Obviously, I know that winning by going to the Demon Realm is the best result, but winning is more important for now."

A war of words ensued.

Edwin Hector and Chris.

supporters of both.

As they each expressed their opinions, they tautly argued that each other's opinions were correct.

It wasn't that they both didn't understand.

Edwin Hector, who suffered a severe harvest as Hector's prince, had no choice but to insist on the direction of his direct attack, and Chris's argument for stably countering the attack was also very reasonable.

finally.

The choice rested with Roman Dmitry.

Depending on what he argued, people knew that this war of words would end.

Roman Dmitry said.

"I don't think both opinions are wrong. But we need to think about what more is needed."

eyes were focused.

The people who had been arguing fiercely listened to Roman Dmitry's words.

"After I realized the existence of the Demon Realm, I looked back on the history of the continent. The threat of the demon realm has been repeated historically. Whenever the existence of the demon realm affects the earth realm, a hero who solves the problem always appears and leaves a mark on history. I will ask you What did you feel in the repeated history?"

There was no answer returned.

Those who understood Roman Dmitry's intentions knew that there was no need for an answer.

"Recurring history means that humanity has never solved a fundamental problem. If it blocks the attack of the demon realm that has come to the earth realm. Do you think mankind can be guaranteed complete peace? It won't be. Peace is only temporary, and as history proves one day, the threat of the demon realm will inevitably be repeated."

not heart attack

history as evidence.

The history of the continent, where the Demon Realm was mentioned periodically, clearly stated what the fundamental problem was.

"For complete peace, the fundamental problem must be uprooted. Of course, a single victory can guarantee the peace of the moment we live. However, in the passage of time that we cannot measure, the threat of the Demon Realm will cause problems again. If so, when do you think the red flag is? Do you think that now is the right time for the Salamander Continent to be united and Roman Dmitry exists, or the distant future, which may be in the future, is the right time to solve the problem?"

conveyed a clear message.

the existence of the devil.

It was the task of mankind.

If you think that you have to solve it someday, as Roman Dmitry said, there is no better enemy than now.

Think about it. The Salamander Continent was unified by the Dmitry Empire.

I do not know how the game of the continent will change in the future, but right now, we can move towards a single goal.

and.

Roman Dmitry existed.

No other explanation was needed.

Repeating history has always signaled the birth of a new hero, but I assure you that there will be no replacement for Roman Dmitry.

A unique existence.

The reason why people like Edwin Hector talk about conquering the Demon Realm without hesitation comes from the strong trust that Roman Dmitry is by their side.

asked a question

With Roman Dmitry supporting Edwin Hector's argument, he gave others plenty of time to ponder.

yet.

said Chris.

"My thoughts were short. Considering not only the present, but the distant future, I think the right time is now when His Majesty the Emperor rules the world to root out the fundamental problem. Put me in the vanguard. Like His Majesty the Emperor, we will eradicate the demons of the Demon Realm."

"Put us in the vanguard."

"Put us in the vanguard."

meaning came together.

Those who opposed it all bowed their heads in unison, supporting Roman Dmitry's will.

It was decided by this

Demonic conquest.

It was a truly extraordinary decision, unprecedented in the history of the continent.

* * *

direction has been set.

Since we aimed to conquer the Demon Realm, from now on, I had to tell you how to implement it in detail.

"I will tell you what I did."

A man in a uniform.

It was Neumann, a priest of the Luna Kingdom.

Before discovering the passage of the Demon Realm, Luna's priests, including Neumann, were given one task.

"In order to conquer the Demon Realm, we need a way to get there. Fortunately, the passage of the Demon Realm is large enough to accommodate the number of people we think, and for teleport-type space movement, it is necessary to temporarily create a crack in the space through a huge amount of mana stones and the prayers of the priests. The problem is time. If the cracks in space are maintained for a long time, some confusion may arise. Therefore, the opening time should be very short, and we plan to open the door only twice, the first time you enter the demon realm and the second you exit. This means that it is impossible to send reinforcements along the way, and if the subjugation of the Demon Realm fails, when the second door is opened, the Earth World will face the beings of the Demon Realm."

It was a gamble.

If it fails.

Any survivors of the human race will laugh at this choice.

Humans directly opened a dimensional space that the demonic beings were trying to somehow open up, and instigated the destruction of the world.

Still, people accepted a risky plan.

Even though they knew it was reckless because Roman Dmitry existed, they were willing to risk their lives.

A being that makes the impossible come true.

A living legend.

Now was the right time.

If even that was impossible, he thought that mankind would always be swept away by disaster.

Roman Dmitry said.

"The subjugation of the Demon Realm will be carried out in a fortnight in the future. When we don't know what plans our enemies are preparing, we can't waste a lot of time. I will deliver the preparations to each country within today. After making all the preparations, we set out to break the cycle of repeated evil ."

That was then.

While giving the order, Neumann suddenly trembled.

like making a game.

The trembling intensified.

The bewildered people looked at them in amazement, and Roman Dmitry paused for a moment to observe the situation.

It wasn't normal.

It wasn't just a physical abnormality, I knew he was engulfed in a tremendous flow of mana.

That moment.

flash.

Quiet rumble rumble.

Light fell from the ceiling.

Neumann opened his white eyes and spoke in a neutral voice that was different from before.

"I, Neumann, will tell the will of God from now on."

God.

people were astonished

This, obviously, was a divine descending on Neumann's body.

* * *

Neumann.

No, God said.

"Each dimension is strictly separated. For you humans to cross the dimension is an act of breaking the rules of this world. If you go ahead with the plan, humanity must pay the price."

Papa Pat.

The light spread out.

People were still in the space, but only the spirit of Roman Dmitry was sucked into another dimension.

white space.

God was there.

He couldn't figure out the form, but he could be sure that it was a god.

"Roman Dmitry. Or, a being called Baek Jung-hyuk. You must not do what you think is right. You are the price that humanity has to bear. Because of you, the world has been restored to peace, but the moment you attempt to conquer the Demon Realm, humanity will lose your existence."

My ears were ringing.

In a situation that has not yet been sorted out, God has revealed the clear truth.

"The moment you go to the Demon Realm, you will become a dimensional rift just like Alexander."

That is to say.

It meant that I couldn't live in this world in the future.
