Epilogue, new days (2)
10 years ago.
Daniel Cairo was just a puppet.
A being who is not able to do anything while being swayed to and fro by external forces that corrode Cairo, who do not exist as a subject of their own accord. It was the reality of a typical ruined country.
If he were the future of this country, Balon chose to train in the abolition, thinking that Cairo itself might fall rather than avenge his brother.
However, he was very different after meeting him after a long time.
As the upright-faced man bit the minions behind him, the minions bowed their heads and followed the king's orders.
It was a subtle point.
Ten years ago, even his minions looked down on Daniel Cairo, showing respect for the King in their faces and behavior.
Daniel Cairo's attitude to accept it naturally.
With the strength felt by veterans who had gone through prenatal care, Balon knew that a lot had changed.
sat on the floor
Beckoning to the minions, Daniel Cairo asked.
"Where have you been all this time?"
Balon was a promising prosecutor.
Like Count Nicholas, he was the future of Cairo, and when he disappeared, people could only feel sorry for him.
So the two talked. They weren't close 10 years ago, but they listened to each other's different reality.
Balon said hesitantly.
How desperately he has been living, and that he does not know how to live now that he has lost his goal of revenge.
I felt at ease.

Balon, who vomited everything, looked at Daniel Cairo with questionable eyes.
"I have heard of Cairo. You and Dmitry have teamed up to defeat Kronos. It may be presumptuous to ask a question now, but was it not difficult to choose at the time when you accepted Dmitry into your kingdom? As a result, it may be a natural choice for those who speak, but it is definitely not an easy choice."
Daniel Cairo laughed.
The world has changed.
In a world centered on Roman Dmitry, it is natural to put Dmitry first, but Daniel Cairo made a difficult decision like Balon's question.
In fact, I've thought about it several times.
In order not to forget his past, to always make the best decision for Cairo.
Daniel Cairo said.
"It wasn't too difficult for me. Knowing how lacking I am, I had to choose the best alternative to solve my problems. His Majesty Roman Dmitry is a man who never abandons those who believe in him. I saw the future of Cairo in his power and character, and I only staked my place and the future of Cairo on him."
" Are you still satisfied with that choice?"
"no. I admit to myself that it was the best, but it would have been better if Cairo could solve the country's problems on its own. ballon. The world has changed a lot without you. I feel gratitude to His Majesty Roman Dmitry in the past, and therefore, as long as I live, Cairo will do my best as a subject's country. But that doesn't mean that Cairo's problems depend solely on Dmitry."
The land of the national cemetery was high.
Watching the sun set in the distance, Daniel Cairo revealed his sincerity.
"Human life is a series of hardships. Just as Cronus, who seemed to never fall, fell to his knees, there will come a time when Cairo will have to deal with his own problems. Then, I hope Cairo can stand on its own. I hope to overcome the external danger without anyone's help."
I looked at Balon.
His eyes, who had lost their way, were shaking violently with the flow of emotions.
"That is the future of Cairo I think, and it is my duty as king."
that day.
Balon saw a new future.
The mature Daniel Cairo was worthy of giving his life after revenge.
It was a story the people of the world did not know.
The fruit of his ten-year struggle for revenge, he swore allegiance to Daniel Cairo on the grass at sunset.

around that time.
A problem has occurred in Arcadia.
As the Dark Elves migrated to Arcadia, a dispute arose with the regular Elves who settled first.
The leader of ordinary elves.
Tersha said.
"Everything else is good. But it is unacceptable to come into our territory and commit murder. Isn't this the first time something like this has happened? When we heard that the Dark Elves were moving to Arcadia, we were in a welcoming position, but we can't stand it any longer if we keep crossing the line."
It was a firm voice.
As the leaders of each race and Luna's lord Rodwell Dmitry were watching, Tersha strengthened her voice.
However.
The dark elves did not accept the problem meekly.
Dark Elf's representative, Darkan, distorted his expression and openly revealed his uneasy feelings.
"The demands of the elves are very unreasonable. They can survive on grass and fruit alone, but dark elves don't. We must eat meat. And in this Arcadia, which is now recovering its original form, there are few lands suitable for hunting, including the realm of the elves. Of course, raising livestock can solve that problem, but if all problems are resolved in a peaceful way, the fighting instincts engraved in the bones of the Dark Elves may disappear. That's why we must go hunting regularly."
"This is a contradictory statement. Speaking of food, isn't it just that you want to go hunting?"
"That is the nature of the Dark Elves. If I tell you that I will not allow you to commune with nature, will you accept it?"
There was a debate.
Dark Elves and Normal Elves.
There wasn't even an inch of retreat.
However, unlike those who fought with their faces blushing, each representative didn't seem to care too much.
relationship between the two.
It was friendly from the beginning.
They came from the same root, but because everything was different, they had no choice but to face each other in the course of their lives in Arcadia.
Each time a tribal council was convened.
Rodwell Dmitry, the lord of Luna, assumed the role of administering the place, and he made judgments with the heads of all races watching.
finally.
It was for Rodwell Dmitry.
"Flora. What do you think?"
His gaze turned to one side.
She, who had been in charge of Arcadia's administrative duties, spoke in a calm voice.
"For coexistence in Arcadia, we cannot accommodate all demands. However, a moderate level of compromise is possible. Why not hold regular hunting competitions nearby so the dark elves can solve their meat-eating and hunting problems? If you don't accept any proposed solution, it can only be accepted with the intention of simply encroaching on the elves' realm. Of course, if you don't accept hunting prey from the elves' territory, this will be the responsibility of both parties."
It wasn't a perfect solution.
The free hunting that the Dark Elves wanted, the slaughter that took place in the elves' realm, wasn't the perfect way the two races wanted, but it couldn't be rejected.
In any case, in a situation where they must coexist, it is a way to solve the superficial reason.
Besides.

"The problems that arise now will be resolved in time. If the realm of the Dark Elves is fully established, then there will be no such chaos."
He emphasized that it was a temporary measure.
If the land that had been frozen by the cold regains its perfect shape, the Dark Elves will be able to satisfy all their needs without going beyond the elves' realm.
Having said that, there was nothing more to say. Rodwell Dmitry smiled as the representatives of the two races spoke sparingly, making the verdict.
"Then, according to Flora Lawrence, I will sort this matter out."
Tang Tang!
Everyone nodded.
Arcadia.
At least on this land, Rodwell Dmitry was the one everyone trusted.

That evening.
Rodwell Dmitry was at the training ground.
His whole body was drenched with sweat from the countless repetitions of the motion.
"Rodwell. Are you really planning on going to a contest?"
on the other side of the training ground.
There was Flora Lawrence.
When she heard a sound as she was passing by and came to see her, Rodwell Dmitry stopped moving and looked at her.
"Before I was the lord of Luna, I was a swordsman. If it is a place where I can prove myself as a prosecutor in a ranking match, it would be worth putting down my position and challenging myself."
" That's great."
Flora Lawrence laughed lightly.
3 years ago.
The two, who had chosen to go to Arcadia, became friends because of their similar age and experience together from the Western Front.
Of course, externally, they were only lords and staff.
However, when they were together, they talked comfortably, and as time passed, they became close enough to share their concerns with each other.
Rodwell Dmitry took a step.
Putting the sword on one side, he wiped his sweat with the towel he had prepared in advance and said in a low voice.
"After this contest is over, I will make a formal request to the Lawrence family."
"What?"
"You and my marriage."
Startle.
For a moment, Flora Lawrence showed a startled reaction.
Unable to say anything with swaying eyes, Rodwell Dmitry looked at her with unshakable eyes.
"In the meantime, my brother has no intention of getting married, so I have been suppressing my will, but I can't wait any longer because Lauren had an accident. so you know After Lauren's wedding and all the contests are over, I will go to my father and tell him the truth."
The sincerity of Rodwell Dmitry.
I knew a long time ago.
From that point of refusal three years ago, Rodwell Dmitry has proven himself with a consistent attitude.
It's not a simple arranged marriage, it's the truth.
If she didn't like it, she would have rejected it, but now, three years have passed, Flora Lawrence smiles broadly involuntarily.
"Yeah, let's do that."

At this time, Dmitry was in a festive mood.
Lauren Dmitry.
Dmitry's third son announced the news of their marriage.
In fact, as Roman Dmitry continued to delay marriage, everyone waited for good news.
But Lauren Dmitry, who was not the second, had an accident first.
One day, he brought the person he liked into the family, and he declared to his parents that he really wanted to get married.
It was something to laugh at now, but at that time, the family was shaken by a sudden declaration.
where is dmitry
It is the royal family.
Since marriage to Lauren Dmitry meant union with the imperial family, Romero Dmitry invited the people of the family to give it serious thought.
The bottom line was to let it go.
For him, who had once had a bad experience with an arranged marriage, he liked anyone his son really liked.
only.
On the premise that there are no defects in toughness.
Fortunately, the woman Lauren Dmitry brought was a very nice person, and from then on, things went smoothly.
So it was the day of the wedding.
From early in the morning, many people flocked to celebrate Lauren Dmitry's wedding, and since it was such a special day, the commander of the Imperial Knights, Commander Jonathan of the Knights Templar, was the special gatekeeper.
"welcome."
"Welcome to Dmitry."
"I will guide you."
key figures from each country.
People of great status arrived one after another.
After the conquest of the Demon Realm.
The world has truly become Dmitry's world, and people truly acknowledged Dmitry, unlike when Kronos and Valhalla were two mountain ranges.
Dmitry was a country worth it.
Rather than simply handing over all the burdens to other countries, he showed the majesty of the empire as if he had led the conquest of the Demon Realm.
for that reason.
This event was a must-attend.
It was also an event of the Dmitry family, and it was very easy to get acquainted with the big names in a place like this.
a field of opportunity.
People were constantly rushing in.
That was then.
Captain Jonathan's expression brightened when he saw the two people coming together.
"Marquis Fabius!"
"Oh, it's been a while."
Dmitry's realm.
It was Fabius.
He clasped hands with a bright face, and right next to him was a figure just as important.
There was no such thing as a great power like Fabius.
But social position.
And he was a very important person in this event.
Amy's cousin, who is the head of the Cairo Royal Academy and promised to marry Lauren Dmitry.
Yes.
"Nice to meet you, Captain Jonathan."
Henry Albert held out his hand to Captain Jonathan with a smile on his face.
