Spectacular Upgrade Ceremony (3)

It was an embarrassing situation.

Dmitry family.

During the difficult times, he took a chance and obtained the title of baron, but in fact, Dmitry's roots were nothing more than ordinary commoners.

At one time, Duke Dmitry had also climbed a high position.

He wanted Roman Dmitry's wedding to take place as a nobleman, but he knew that the world of powerful people could not handle it with his own vessel.

so.

handed over power

Putting Roman Dmitry to the fore, he has recently been faithful to life with his wife like an old man in the back room.

But Daniel Cairo's oath of allegiance.

Duke Dmitry's bowl was too small to answer right away.

What do you mean. Cairo will remain a subject's country. Dmitry originated from the Kingdom of Cairo. It is my wish to maintain the relationship of the allies, but I do not understand why they do so."

"I am not asking you to take it right now. To become a subject's country is when Dmitry is given the title of Empire."

However !"

"Duke Dmitry."

Daniel Cairo stopped talking calmly.

In order to make the present decision, he had a lot of conversations with his servants and constant worries.

"What did you think of when you arrived in Kairos? The people of the Kingdom of Cairo who flocked to the streets consider Dmitry to be the hero of Cairo. It's not just because they have the same roots. Because it is a country that has ensured national security, and because such a country has the same roots as Cairo, the people welcome Dmitry without any prejudice."

People filling the streets.

I had a strange feeling.

They wouldn't react so enthusiastically when the King of Cairo himself came.

acknowledged

Roman Dmitry is special.

Beyond the king's influence, he was showing a strong presence in the Cairo Kingdom.

"Actually, the main reason for this decision was the war with the Kronos Empire. Kronos revealed the ambition of conquering the continent, and in the last war, the Cairo Kingdom showed a power that could never be afforded. The war at that time was won by the United Kingdom. But those who know the real story of the war will say that Roman Dmitry's individual ability turned the game upside down, rather than the strength of the Confederation led to victory.

That was the reality.

Cairo didn't do anything back then.

"If the Kronos Empire attacked the entire confederation of kingdoms at the same time. What do you think will happen? Although Roman Dmitry may win the battlefield where he is holding on, it is clear that the overwhelming power of the Kronos Empire will swallow up the rest. Duke Dmitry. The world is changing. In the future to come, neutrality is just an irresponsible attitude, and even if you choose one path and prepare for it, you cannot guarantee victory. So the Cairo Kingdom just accepted the reality. Just as the people of Cairo react with enthusiasm, I believe that Dmitry can defend us from the ambitions of the Kronos Empire."

I trusted Dmitry.

In a situation where they entrusted the future of Cairo, it was impossible to maintain such an ambiguous relationship forever.

Dmitry is.

At some point you will leap to the Empire.

If it was the future to come anyway, Daniel Cairo quickly realized his position.

"Maybe my words feel irresponsible. It's asking Dmitry to take care of Kronos, but if Dmitry dreams of a future as an empire. Please accept the Kingdom of Cairo. On the day that Dmitry proclaims the title of the Empire, I will gladly kneel down and swear allegiance."

It was a determined will.

Looking at the resolute king of Cairo, Duke Dmitry knew that it was simply unthinkable.

It was a time of upheaval.

in a situation like now.

No matter what happened, it was not strange.

Daniel Cairo's earnestness hoped that Cairo would not be swept away by the current of upheaval.

"Whoa."

took a deep breath.

Duke Dmitry, who had been contemplating for a long time, looked at the man who was quietly watching the conversation.

"Roman. What do you think?"

Roman Dmitry.

The choice, in the end, was his.

* * *

Dmitry's full volume.

It was with Roman Dmitry.

As Duke Dmitry, he knew that this was not a matter of his own judgment as an old man in the back room.

It's a difficult problem.

Leaving the choice over, Roman Dmitry responded calmly.

"I agree with His Majesty the King of Cairo. The purpose of the Kronos Empire is clear, and simply wishing for the safety of the kingdom unity cannot solve the essential problem. True peace can only be achieved when the Kronos Empire is overthrown. The problem is that Kronos is a huge empire. If they fall, there is bound to be a void, and the chaos will never end unless someone takes control of it."

similar example.

There was the kingdom of Odelia.

Odelia was a small country that was embarrassing to even compare to the Kronos Empire, but the collapse of Odelia's royal family caused great chaos.

Odelia became a lawless zone, people who had lost their country crossed the border as refugees, and the collapse of a country affected the continent as a whole.

Odelia is like this.

Not to mention Kronos.

Therefore, it was not just a war to promote safety, but it had to be prepared for what would happen after that.

"If Valhalla absorbs all the void of Kronos, the same chaos is repeated by the mad Emperor Valhalla. So we must not end this situation with just being safe. when the empire was overthrown. Someone must wield the chaos with strong control and bring the continent to equanimity. Whether the opponent is Kronos or Valhalla. We need to completely shut down the room for discord."

Daniel Cairo.

Dmitry Duke.

The two witnessed Roman Dmitry's sincerity for the first time.

He vaguely knew that he was looking at the sky, but as the conversation progressed, his eyes trembled a little.

"I will take that role."

There was no humility.

from the beginning.

Roman Dmitry wished for the top.

If the Kronos Empire was to be destroyed, it was a natural order to swallow the chaos and pacify the continent.

King of Cairo.

Dmitry's owner.

In a situation where he left the choice to himself, Roman Dmitry looked at them in shock and said clearly.

"I will lead the Kingdom Federation and conquer the continent beyond the Kronos Empire."

* * *

The conversation is over.

After the shocking news came and went, the two men shared their thoughts with Roman Dmitry.

"Son. I believe you. Whatever you do in the future, I, Romero Dmitry, will trust and follow your judgment."

These were the words of Duke Dmitry.

And Daniel Cairo.

" In fact, until today's meeting, I had a lot of trouble deciding what to do if Dmitry had a different opinion than me. But I'm feeling cold. Roman Dmitry. Thank you for making such a firm decision."

both.

His expression was brighter than expected.

In a situation where the future is firmly set, all the problems that complicate the mind have been resolved.

break up with them

bum bum.

Roman Dmitry walked down the hallway alone.

Cairo.

Dmitry.

And a lot of people who believe in themselves.

Roman Dmitry trusts them, but knows that in order to reach the top, he has no choice but to become stronger.

Today's conversation was a kind of commitment.

He took on the burden of Daniel Cairo and Duke Dmitry instead, and directly stated what he hoped for in the future.

The two's faces were bright.

Because he had given up responsibility.

This will put Roman Dmitry on top of the tough trials he has to go through.

walked down the hallway

As I walked alone, a cold wind blew.

An ordeal that others cannot bear.

got used to

like it was in a previous life.

In the present life, Roman Dmitry will rise to the apex as a reigning being.

After a confusing day.

next day.

It was the day of the upgrade ceremony.

The event was held in the square of Kairos, and the square was crowded with people from early in the morning.

All of them wanted to see Roman Dmitry.

After running hard at the Cairo Royal Academy and controlling the surroundings, it was time to start the event.

Moderator of the upgrade ceremony.

Baron Alvin prepared his turn with a nervous look.

"Huh, I'm trembling."

this event.

It's not really that great at first.

The promotion ceremony of the Cairo Royal Academy takes place several times a year, so it was rare for people to show such interest.

But with the presence of Lauren Dmitry, things changed.

Little by little, interest in him grew, and the number of nobles who wanted to attend the event, starting with the Dmitry Captivity Incident, increased.

Dmitry.

It meant that their status had changed.

The people who were going to abandon Kronos and change to Dmitry were eager to try some snow stamping.

"A script?"

"Here it is."

I received the script through the event officials.

It was to see what kind of comment he should make in advance, but his eyes widened when he checked the script.

" Do I have to say all of these people's names?!"

"This is true. I'm in trouble too. According to the tradition of the academy, we should mention all the names of the people who brighten up the promotion ceremony, but this is the first time this has happened. First of all, shouldn't we do it according to tradition?"

OMG.

His complexion turned white.

I knew people were very interested.

But the moment he checked the script, he had no choice but to admit that the level he had expected was nothing.

If you can't avoid it, I said enjoy it.

finally.

The event has begun.

In a situation where there were a lot of people, the moderator stepped forward in order.

"From now on, we will start the promotion ceremony for the Cairo Royal Academy. Before proceeding with the full-fledged sequence, we will take a moment to tell you the names of those who have graced this event."

took a deep breath.

People's attention was focused.

They were still unpredictable about what was going to happen.

"His Majesty the King of Cairo, His Majesty the Duke of Dmitry, took the seat, Baron Grassel, Viscount Conrad, Count Adelean, Viscount Lawrence, Viscount Bolt, Marquis Valentino, Count Fabius, Viscount Bale, Viscount Ringo, Count Verdi, Baron Larsson, Marquis Jarvan... Count Christine, Baron Fosbury, Count Draxler and Count Samir were in attendance."

out of breath

too many but too many

Calling his name made me dizzy, but the problem wasn't over yet.

palak.

handed over the script.

The names that filled the next page.

Only a list of this level, five more were prepared.

And ."

continuous calling.

people admired

Aside from the fact that so many people attended, it was gorgeous just looking at the side of the list.

It was certain.

This event will go down in the history of the Cairo Royal Academy.

* * *

The event had come to an end.

After a public celebration of the promotion recipients, Baron Alvin announced that the promotion ceremony was now over.

" This will end the promotion ceremony."

clap clap-

clap clap-

People applauded.

It must have been a huge burden on the mind due to the unprecedented scale, but it was worth applause just for completing the event without any problems.

So Baron Alvin got off the stage.

People had to get up because all the orders of the promotion ceremony were over, but the nobles of each country did not leave their seats.

The silence has subsided.

They looked into each other's eyes with awkward faces.

this event.

It wasn't just to show his face.

If it was Lauren Dmitry's promotion ceremony, the Dmitry family would attend, and I was thinking of talking to him while handing him a congratulatory gift.

As expected, Lauren Dmitry's family gathered around him.

Upon seeing the appearances of Duke Dmitry and Roman Dmitry, people were impatient and swallowed dry saliva.

It was a weird scene.

People organizing event props.

Even so, the nobles were guarding their seats regardless.

like that.

In order to win the favor of the Dmitry family, the game of the nobility of each country began.
