Earl Douglas was perplexed.
Roman Dmitry had intervened, and he could not havetily choose one of the options offered by his opponent.
'damn. Dmitry is going to war.
The blood felt cold.
Dmitry's participation in the war made it impossible to guarantee victory in the North.
As long as war is declared, the situation cannot be reversed. Then, as Roman Dmitry said, one must choose between hand-to-hand combat and fighter combat. Which of the two is the choice for the victory of the North?
Battle of the Warlords?
It was absolutely impossible.
Roman Dmitry defeated Butler, who was ranked on the continent in the war with Hector.
In fact, in the Cairo Kingdom, except for the commander of the Royal Knights, he was a monster that had no rivals, but the other swordsmen were not sane.
Earl Douglas had recently heard rumors that Roman had held a contest.
He sent out his six subordinates, and they all won the championship overwhelmingly.
3 battles.
In a situation where Roman's victory was certain, even in the other two fights, it was impossible to guarantee a win.
In particular, Chris's presence, as famous as Roman, did not allow the possibility of a battle of the great warriors.
'It's unconditional defeat. Bringing so many troops, they will do nothing and end up being a loser. The problem is that you can't even choose hand-to-hand combat. The North's forces will be enough to overwhelm the power of the Northeast Alliance, but Roman Dmitry's participation in the war is a completely different matter.'
War with Hector.
Rumors from the capital caused a stir throughout Cairo.
Roman Dmitry slaughtered hundreds of enemies when isolated in the South, and opened the gates alone in the process of capturing the rear positions.
It was not human activity.
No matter how much rumors on the battlefield tend to be exaggerated, Earl Douglas believed that chimneys don't smoke.
It was certain.
The hero of the Southern Front is Roman Dmitry.
Such a monster was holding on, but I didn't know what it would be like if they had a hand-to-hand battle.
How the hell did you do this?
northern beast.
He doesn't go back and forth.
Even for him who has a tendency to hit and see, Roman Dmitry's fame made him hesitant to choose.
I ran into a dilemma.
Only one Dmitry family participated in the Northeast Alliance, but the situation was completely messed up.
The northern lords were no different.
If it had been normal, they would have gone ahead and encouraged the choice, but now they only looked at Earl Douglas' eyes and couldn't tell him what to do.
There were things the whole Cairo had been talking about about Roman Dmitry, so they did not want to fall victim to heroic achievements.
An awkward silence lingered.
OK.
Can I make a suggestion?
Roman broke the silence.
* * *
Roman knew the other person's concerns.
If they offered a compromise that would save their face in moderation, they could pretend they couldn't win and back down.
However.
I do not wish for peace.
House Douglas and the lords of the North.
It was good food.
They were barbarians who threatened the Northeast Association, and he was the one to defeat those barbarians.
this case.
The Northeast Association took Dmitry's hand after deliberation.
Perhaps, rather than swearing allegiance, it is more accurate to view that he has chosen a compromise with a communicative enemy to resolve the immediate threat.
If so, what process is required to complete the final plan?
For a moment, the Northeast Alliance had entered Dmitry's fence, and Roman needed to show them how sweet and comfortable it was to hold hands with Dmitry from now on.
against him.
The Douglas family was marked.
The moment they set foot in the northeast area, unable to contain their anger, they fell into an unavoidable trap.
said Roman.
The proposal is simple. I'm going to fight a great warrior, but what if I'm dealing with three swordsmen at the same time?"
Moment.
Everyone looked bewildered.
I admit that Roman is strong, but I didn't know that he would come up with such a vain proposal.
This offer will be difficult to refuse.
dug a trap
A very tempting offer.
Rather than just having a hand-to-hand battle and a fighter battle, a 3 to 1 handicap match had no choice but to be advantageous no matter how much you thought about it.
In addition, Earl Douglas had under his command twin swordsmen, famous in the North.
The older brother and the younger brother are at the level of 3 stars and 2 stars, respectively, and their skills were recognized by defeating many strong men with their perfect pairing.
Even though Roman knew that, he said that he would deal with the three of them.
It was intentional.
I deliberately laid the plate that the opponent thought had an advantage, and waited for the opponent's answer with appropriate silence.
Count Douglas.
You will probably be angry.
Your stomach will boil.
A person who lived to the fullest of his temper, where would he have gone to be treated like this?
Still, he didn't open his mouth.
The fact that Roman had defeated Butler gave him a horror that was unbearable to deal with in a battle of the Great Warriors.
to him like that.
If you are hesitant, you can increase the number of people to five. I hope to end this war as cleanly as possible.
Roman intentionally.
He spit out arrogant remarks that touched the heart of Earl Douglas.
* * *
took some time
Count Douglas walked away from the lords of the North, and said with a look that could not hide his anger.
Let s take the offer.
Roman's intentions?
okay.
The fact that he is trying to bring down the battle of the great warriors by provoking himself.
I tried to suppress my emotions, but I couldn't make a rational decision the moment I mentioned 5 people.
I know that Roman Dmitry is strong. Homer was defeated, and even Butler was defeated, so his power was virtually proven. But it's five. No matter how great a swordsman may be, there is a limit to the number of heads that can be dealt with with two legs and two arms. If it's not a joke and we send out the powerful people of each family, wouldn't we be able to defeat only one Roman?"
It's too risky though. Defeating Butler means five-star potential.
Do I not know that? Doesn't that mean there's no other way? Either way, it's a battle of the great warriors, or a hand-to-hand battle. We have to deal with that monster. If so, I think the only way to increase your odds even a little bit is to face the enemy in the most advantageous situation possible. And this is something I didn't reveal publicly, but a twin swordsman under my control once defeated a 4-star swordsman with a pincer. Of course, the opponent had just reached the level of 4 stars, but that means that the level of perfection of the pincers is great.
Is that really true?
Everyone was agitated.
You say you defeated a 4 star prosecutor.
If that's true, then you really had a chance.
Count Douglas said.
I will send two twin swordsmen to the battle of Daejeon. If it weren't true, there would be no reason for me to make this decision. Just three minutes, please agree with my choice. Roman Dmitry will be as strong as the rumors say. But he is only in his mid-20s. Gaining strength at a young age is bound to boil his blood, and he has made the reckless choice to show off his power, even to make the situation difficult. This is your chance. When you're still ignorant and running wild. If we cut off Roman Dmitry's breath here, we could completely devour the whole northeast."
eyes were dyed red.
Whether your opinion is right or wrong.
It didn't matter.
Roman crossed the line, and Earl Douglas seemed unable to sleep unless he retaliated against him.
finally.
"Okay."
I will follow the advice of the Count.
Like the Count, I think Roman Dmitry made a mistake. I admit he's strong, but it's arrogant to deal with five prosecutors at once."
opinions were gathered.
The nobles step out one by one.
they were sure
Roman Dmitry said that he would surely regret his arrogance.
* * *
aristocrats of the central government.
He came as an observer.
The rules were simple.
Earl Douglas and the lords of the north sent out five swordsmen, and Roman had to deal with them alone.
Whoa.
Everyone, don t be nervous. After all, the other person is also a human being.
Five swordsmen representing the North.
they stepped forward
Roman was already waiting for them, but when he met his eyes, everyone showed signs of nervousness.
Roman Dmitry.
His reputation was great.
To Cairo's swordsmen, he was held up like a legend, so the fact that he was dealing with him had to come with fear.
But they believed there was a chance.
Before the confrontation began, Benton, the twin swordsman's older brother, told me about the strategy, and it was truly a one-on-one operation.
Benton said.
Everyone, listen to me. The moment the battle begins, me and Bentel will tear to the sides, aiming for Roman Dmitry's blind spot. left and right. With attacks coming in from both directions, Roman's hands will inevitably be twisted. Pincers start by stealing momentum. If you attack Roman from different directions while we are drawing our opponent's attention, the opponent is bound to be pushed back crazy from the start."
From then on, it s a fight we have an advantage. If the opponent tries to attack, you can attack the opponent's loophole from the other side and make it impossible to attack properly. having a lot of brains. If you make the most of it, you can unconditionally win no matter who your opponent is.
It was his brother Bentel.
twin test.
Because of their progress, other prosecutors have gained trust.
All to location.
Finally.
The time has come.
In a situation facing each other, Benton and Bentel raised their mana.
'It's a fight we have to win.'
Your opponent made an arrogant choice. If we win here, we can earn the reputation of defeating Roman Dmitry.'
It was an excellent opportunity.
He was confident enough to defeat a monster that could not be defeated by normal means.
Mouth was dry.
Holding his sword strongly, he waited for the signal to confront.
That was then.
flutter.
signal went down.
Benton and Bentel.
They immediately hit the ground.
Quiet rumble.
Aura exploded.
Due to the explosive force from the bridge, the two were torn apart as planned, aiming for Roman's blind spot.
Neither fast nor slow.
The two attacked Roman at just the right timing as much as they looked the same.
Even the three swordsmen who rushed after them thought that the attack would work if it was at this timing.
By the way.
flash.
!
poof.
blood splashed
I didn't even see what had happened.
Two swordsmen running at the same time.
They both spit blood equally.
Their chests were ripped apart like swords that raised an aura, and they collapsed as they were in disbelief.
dump.
It was over.
The two never looked up again.
In a very embarrassing situation, the prosecutors, who rushed in late, abruptly stopped walking.
You crazy.
Killing twin swordsmen in one blow!
It was embarrassing.
results in front of you.
I swallowed my saliva.
Roman said as he looked around, leaving the other enemies alone.
When I heard that Earl Douglas had declared war, a thought suddenly occurred to me. What were you thinking as you crossed the northeast area? When the Barco family was still alive, people who always tried to solve the problem through dialogue, why didn t we say a word?
dripping.
Drops of blood fell from the sword.
on a wide plain.
Only Roman's voice resounded.
In the end, it's a simple matter. That he did not care at all about the existence of the Dmitry family. Otherwise, there would be no reason for the lords of the North, including Count Douglas, to make such a choice. And that fact is very offensive to me.
Eyes looking around.
stand tall.
Stopped towards one person.
It was Earl Douglas.
Looking at his face, who had lost his mind in surprise, Roman said in a calm voice.
Even now, I will give you a chance to fight the battle of Daejeon. At the very least, it seems that the war ended too quickly for a war that the central government had to ask for an observer, so why not try again in a hand-to-hand battle?
spit out words.
Contrary to his tone, Count Douglas's eyes widened at the shocking remark.
