Epilogue, last outing

It was an unexpected visit.

Hearing that Roman Dmitry had come, Romero Dmitry greeted his son with a bright smile.

"Yeah, is there anything wrong?"

"It's always the same."

"You are the emperor of the Dmitry Empire. Countless lives depend on your health, so always take care of yourself first. Also, take good care of the healthy food that your mother sent you. It works so well that I feel like I'm all rejuvenated. chuckle."

laughed cheerfully.

Dmitry and his father shared an ordinary story.

Romero Dmitry constantly asked questions about how he was doing, whether there were any special problems, and whether he did not want to waste time with his son who had come for a long time.

By the time the conversation matured like that. He looked at his son and asked in a cautious voice.

" By the way, aren't you thinking of getting married yet?"

marriage.

It was the biggest problem of the Dmitry family.

It was a situation of success and victories while establishing the empire, but the eldest son, Roman Dmitry, was refusing to get married, so he had to deepen his worries.

The second son and the youngest have already welcomed their companions. Now that I only need to send Roman Dmitry, Romero Dmitry wanted to know the sincerity of the eldest son.

and.

There was a part that was heartbreaking for him.

"If you have lost your heart for marriage due to the problem of breaking up. I was really sorry about that. I shouldn't have treated you so harshly just because the marriage was over, even I couldn't hold back the moment of anger. son I don't want you to get married with your back being pushed. If you ever have someone you really love. No matter who it is, this father will be really happy, so please introduce me anytime."

The breakup was wretched.

A problem that makes my heart ache just thinking about it.

Romero Dmitry carefully spit out each word, wondering if he was holding onto his ankle.

Abby's heart.

understood.

And he never ruled out marriage because of his concerns.

'I can't do things I can't take responsibility for.'

The truth could not be told.

laughed

Roman Dmitry looked into his father's eyes and explained why he had come to see him.

"It is my own choice not to get married. father. After ascending the throne, I had plenty of time to reflect on my life. At that time, the thought that popped into my head was gratitude for my father. Even when people pointed fingers at me, he was always by my side and cheered me on in whatever I did. thank you. I am truly grateful that a man named Romero Dmitry was my father."

" ."

swallowed the horse

It was a different look than usual.

Although he is not a son who expresses his feelings so directly, tears seemed to flow when he said thank you for having him as a father.

It felt like the burden on my heart had been lifted.

Seeing Roman Dmitry's avoidance of marriage for the past three years, Romero Dmitry's heart rotted in fear that it was his fault.

"Thank you, son."

happy.

So the son left.

Romero Dmitry, who was reflecting on the conversation with his son, suddenly felt regretful.

'I should have expressed my sincerity rather than saying thank you. Just as your son took courage, I am also very grateful that you are my son. Even in those days when I was called Dmitry's nerd, you were always the son I really loved.'

it was ok

Because this opportunity is not the only one.

Romero Dmitry looked out the window and thought that the sun shining on him was very warm.

After the Hector Valhalla incident.

Chris was still busy.

As he excelled in administrative abilities, he became a necessary talent in any field.

It was the same that day.

After finishing his morning training and processing papers, he met an unexpected visitor.

"His Majesty the Emperor!"

"You look very busy."

"No, come in."

It was Roman Dmitry.

It was the first time

Although there were cases where he personally visited when there was an important event, Roman Dmitry did not come first.

It was surprising. Once Chris, who had given the top seat, looked at him with a questioning look, Roman Dmitry continued the conversation with a casual story.

Then suddenly.

said strange words.

"Kris. Valhalla and Hector's case could have ended well thanks to your swift action. But if. If I didn't exist in this country, would you be able to prevent their conflict?"

" what it is."

"It's just in case. I want to hear your thoughts."

It was a random question.

After thinking about it for a while, Chris looked at Roman Dmitry and said.

"The reason the world is at peace is because His Majesty the Emperor exists. If His Majesty did not exist, things would not be as easy as this one. But that's it. Dmitry had a solid foundation in the service of His Majesty the Emperor. Even without His Majesty's halo, Hector and Valhalla could not disobey Dmitry's orders."

"Yeah, as you said."

people's delusions

Dmitry is under the illusion that Roman Dmitry is everything.

The truth is different.

This country has grown up like Roman Dmitry, and has become more powerful than most people know.

Roman Dmitry said.

"This country is strong. Even if I excluded myself, I had enough national power to rule the entire continent. Kris. You are the person who deserves to lead a new era. When we first met, you were lost in the wrong direction, but your talent was superior to anyone else. That is why you, the only person who received my teachings, had to be strong on your own. you had the ability He had such a brilliant talent that he could grow even if he did."

Chris' eyes twinkled.

I felt a trembling feeling.

From Roman Dmitry, this was the first time he had heard such a recognizable remark.

"You can be proud of yourself. As the stage before the rankings proves, you are clearly next to me."

" !"

eyes widened

The conversation ended like that.

After Roman Dmitry left.

Chris had a blank expression on his face.

The laughter that kept leaking out made me think that I was such a mean person.

'This is what I really wanted.'

I just found out

read at koreanmtl. online

He did not simply want to surpass Roman Dmitry.

meeting him for the first time

Chris' world has changed dramatically.

From the day he faced the inaccessible being, he had a strong desire to be recognized by Roman Dmitry.

dream of getting over him.

The reason I kept trying, even though I knew it wasn't possible, was because I hope that someday Roman Dmitry will recognize me as I have improved.

So he constantly proved himself.

Although he was aiming his sword and mercilessly broken, he tried and tried to listen to the remarks that acknowledged him, even once.

Laughter kept coming out.

The place where Roman Dmitry left.

It seemed like I couldn't continue my work any more today.

dump.

"Whoop, whoop."

Kevin sighed heavily, lying on the floor.

After meeting Roman Dmitry.

He was engrossed in training like crazy.

Even if the world was at peace, he worked relentlessly to remain as Roman Dmitry needed.

That was then.

"It's still there."

" Master?!"

jumped up from his seat.

It was Roman Dmitry.

He staggered for a moment as he got up, but quickly got up and looked at Roman Dmitry.

on that look.

Roman Dmitry said.

"Kevin. Why are you, strong enough, trying so hard?"

It was a familiar question.

several months ago.

Kevin asked the same question.

Roman Dmitry, who was trying hard even after defeating the Demon King, responded that he did not understand his life.

hesitated for a moment.

As Kevin was organizing his thoughts, he said in a steady voice.

"I have been thinking a lot since I talked to the master. Even the master, whom I cannot dare to approach, is constantly pursuing development, so why am I complacent with reality? The reason was the lack of purpose. The purpose of being strong. We don't just want to become stronger when there are enemies, but we want to become a being that can solve any problems in the future. The master, my family, and everyone in Dmitry. No one can touch them. I will make it happen."

It was a strong desire.

Kevin has returned to his original form.

If something goes wrong with Dmitry, the enemies will be the first to meet Dmitry's demon.

laughed

Among those who follow Roman Dmitry.

Kevin wasn't the strongest.

I lost to Chris every time in the ranking match, and as beings like Edwin Hector developed day by day, I couldn't be sure that Kevin would win forever.

But aside from those facts. If you ask who you trust the most, Roman Dmitry could say it without hesitation.

"Kevin. You are the one I trust the most. Because of you, I don't worry too much about the place I'm not in."

A being who was a boy at first.

Now it has grown suddenly.

Looking into his intense eyes, Roman Dmitry felt the passage of time.

"You never know when or what will happen in human life. If problems arise that Dmitry's people cannot handle, I hope you will solve them. What I am going to tell you from now on is the cost of the burden you will bear in the future."

convinced

Chris and Kevin.

With the two of them, Dmitry will be forever.

"The Celestial Swordsmanship. I will tell you its finished form."

* * *

It was a sunny afternoon.

Roman Dmitry was walking through the city.

Past and present.

Dmitry has undergone many changes.

In the past, as a city of blacksmiths, solid buildings decorated the city, but now it has been transformed into a splendid city worthy of the status of the empire.

No one recognized Roman Dmitry wearing a robe. People chatted each other and enjoyed the moment in front of them with their faces soaked in daily life.

'When I first walked this street. I needed an understanding of this world.'

Roman Dmitry.

It was an unfamiliar name.

Going out into the streets to adapt to a new and changed world, Roman Dmitry met an old man in a slum.

went there

Shacks with suffocating feet and unpleasant odors.

Traces of the past are no longer to be found.

Dmitry undertook major renovations to improve people's lives, and at least there were no slums here, the capital of the Dmitry Empire.

left as a memory of the past.

Looking at the traces of the slum's existence, Roman Dmitry recalled the memories he had seen and heard there.

Then by chance.

I heard conversations from people who recalled the past just like me.

"It has changed a lot."

"This is all thanks to His Majesty Roman Dmitry. Since he ruled this world, nothing has gotten worse than before. All the people begging on the street got jobs, and the economy was revitalized as they spent the money they earned. i mean Sometimes I think that His Majesty Roman Dmitry might be a gift from God. If the demons of the underworld had attacked in a world where Kronos and Valhalla fought, we would never have been able to hold out."

"right. People remember conquering the Demon Realm, but the common people didn't take that risk."

Roman Dmitry.

That was the reason he was recognized.

It didn't make the crisis feel like a crisis.

For his decision to take risks as a leader, people appreciated the fact that he was the leader of this world.

passed them

After the street, the slums.

After the slums, the blacksmith.

recalled memories of the past.

Finally, as he was about to head to the restaurant he had found with Hans, a familiar voice caught his ankle.

"His Majesty the Emperor! You are here."

A man running away from nowhere.

He was Hans.

* * *

this outing.

not reported

And even though he was wearing a robe, Hans immediately recognized that the robin was Roman Dmitry.

"How did you know about the country?"

"Of course you have to know! It has been decades since I have served His Majesty the Emperor, but now, just by looking at his shape and gait, I recognize at once that he is the Emperor. But why did you go out without a word? His Majesty the Emperor, he is the one who can decide everything on his own, but if he had spoken to me, wouldn't he have prepared everything so that there would be no inconvenience? and ."

Hans talked a lot.

Perhaps he was surprised that Roman Dmitry had left without a word, and he continued to chime in.

It was a familiar picture.

Hans walks ahead.

The image of himself walking after him.

So it was then.

As they made their way to the restaurant, Hans stood by and chattered about how dangerous the situation was.

Dispute with Blood Fang.

Hans stayed by his side even though he knew it was dangerous.

When Roman Dmitry left him, he ran to the commander of the Knights Jonathan and told him to protect the master.

"Hans."

"Say it."

"When I first came to this world. There was a being named Hans by my side. You always said that you were in charge of your duties and took what you were doing for granted, but your presence gave me peace in a time that could have been chaotic. So there was something I really wanted to say to you someday."

"What ."

It was incomprehensible.

When I was living in this world

Hans took care of Roman Dmitry from an early age.

At the strange remarks that reminded him of his childhood, Hans paused for a moment and tried to look back at Roman Dmitry.

That was then.

"I was lucky to have met you for the first time in this world."

at that word.

my heart sank.

Tears welled up.

In a situation where he even described himself as lucky, Hans felt emotions beyond words.

It was also the same.

People thought of Hans only as a servant.

But Roman Dmitry didn't just see him as a servant.

It was family.

Taking care of his life, taking care of his family, and simply being faithful to his work as a servant, Hans obtained the title of nobility.

Emotions were not one-sided.

As Roman Dmitry said in the past that emotions are giving and receiving, he also felt grateful for the feeling of giving back as much as he gave.

turned his head

Looking at Roman Dmitry, he tried to convey his sincerity.

However.

" His Majesty the Emperor?"

there was no

Apparently, Roman Dmitry, who had been following him a while ago, was nowhere to be seen.

"His Majesty the Emperor? His Majesty the Emperor!"

Hans looked around.

He called out to Roman Dmitry.

But no matter how many times I called and called, even as the sun went down, Roman Dmitry was nowhere to be found.

Not only that day.

from that day onwards.

white space.

A human set foot in an empty place.

[Roman Dmitry. Now is the time.]

last 3 years.

Roman Dmitry had a grace period.

As God had promised in the first place, for the sake of this world, Roman Dmitry had to leave.

"Know."

It was an unavoidable reality.

If reality could have been changed by cutting down on God, Roman Dmitry would have been willing to make God an enemy.

But I found that it was impossible. The reason Roman Dmitry cannot live in this world is because of the dimensional rules.

If you insist on not leaving this world, your existence will cause cracks and the world will one day meet the same end as the demon realm.

could not tolerate

So I accepted reality.

Because it was something he was prepared for from the beginning, Roman Dmitry showed a blunt response now that he faced the will of God.

[I have a question. last 3 years. Why didn't you do anything?]

someday.

I knew I had to leave.

Still, he didn't do anything special.

He devoted himself to training every day, preparing for an enemy that Dmitry could not handle in any case.

Even if he had to be compensated enough for a short time while spreading the word about his own sacrifice, he remained calm.

Why?

I couldn't understand.

Even as a god, he could not look into the heart of a mere human.

"There is no particular reason. Even if I lived for just one day, I was living in my position as a human being."

Roman Dmitry.

Emperor of the Dmitry Empire.

As a leader, he prepared for danger and did not make a fuss about a life with an end.

It was a simple matter.

Even if there had been no conclusion that one day he had to die, Roman Dmitry would have lived the same life as it is now.

It was a choice not to leave any regrets.

Acting differently depending on the future ahead and laying down one's own life was not what it was like to have lived a life of struggle to the end.

I just accepted reality.

Roman Dmitry was a human being that even God could not understand.

[Last question. Have you ever regretted your life for even one moment?]

The answer has been decided.

People said his choice was a sacrifice.

But Roman Dmitry had a different idea.

From start to finish, Roman Dmitry's life was for himself.

"none. Not even a single moment."

[is it.]

Roman Dmitry would not know.

Isabel thought that Roman Dmitry was inactive because he was worried about the dimensional rift, but in reality, God protected Roman Dmitry's existence.

so that he can live enough. Life has a fixed end, but at least not even a handful of regrets left behind.

Roman Dmitry lived his daily life.

God cared for him.

That was it.

It was the only way God could express his gratitude to the being who took on all the problems of mankind.

[Roman Dmitry. You were the most unhuman of all the humans I've ever met, but more human than anyone else.]

Hwareuk.

gurgling rumbling.

A fire broke out.

The divine power flared up, and the space where Roman Dmitry existed was destroyed.

[I will sincerely bless the new life that you will face in the future.]

flash.

Curl rumble rumble.

A flash of light engulfed the world.

This was not the end.

It's just the beginning of a new future.

Although he may not be able to live as Roman Dmitry, he will certainly live his own life wherever he is.
