Alexander (1)

When Kronos first declared war.

What happened in Cairo?

bum bum.

A group of people walked down the halls of the royal palace.

As I strode to the front of the conference room, the guards were polite and opened the conference room door wide.

"His Majesty the King of Cairo enters."

squeaky.

Inside the conference room.

The leaders who had been seated in advance stood up at once and bowed their heads toward Daniel Cairo.

Daniel Cairo's attitude of accepting the gaze was quite familiar.

He was greeted by the top officials with a light nod of his head, and after sitting at the top, he suggested that the senior leaders also sit down.

let's all sit down

Daniel Cairo spoke straight away.

"I heard reports that the Kronos Empire violated the ceasefire agreement and crossed the border. This is something we didn't expect, or something we expected and prepared for. Norbert. Report the current situation of the enemy."

Norbert.

He was a person in charge of information.

In the new reshuffle, Daniel Cairo realized the importance of information and put him in a key position.

"It is estimated that the Kronos Empire mobilized about 500,000 troops in this attack. It is a higher number than the previous war, and at the same time, we confirmed the information that we sent troops to the Umberto Kingdom. The problem isn't just the numbers. Whether they wanted to win this war with certainty, the Knights of Kronos and all the wizards in their country were summoned. If they run a detached unit using 'teleport' as in the last war, the entire Cairo is not safe anywhere."

"Captain of the Knights of Simon. What's the status of Cairo's troops?

passed the right to speak.

After the death of Count Nicholas, Simon, who had been the deputy commander of the Royal Knights, took over the military.

"I have ordered the nobility of Cairo to be summoned. We have already asked them for their understanding, so we plan to finish the formation of the troops within the next three days as we have been training. And in the case of the Western Front, we have finished preparing. In addition to magic defense, we have a path to support right through the warp gate."

"Wizards?"

"We hired as many war mages as we could. They received military training in Cairo several months ago, and will be deployed to the Western Front soon. Not only that, he also summoned all the mercenaries from the Salamander Continent. The payoff for success is not high because we are dealing with the Kronos Empire, but thanks to that, we were able to deploy about 100,000 additional troops to the Western Front."

After Simon.

As if inheriting a baton, said the person in charge of finance.

"Thanks to preparing the war funds in advance, the inventory of magical consumables or the remuneration of the mercenaries is not a problem at all. It was thanks to the full help of the nobles of Cairo. We have enough military capacity, so even if it leads to a long-term battle, we will be able to withstand it."

last year.

It was a scene that showed that Cairo wasn't just playing.

Seeing the leaders proving their worth one after another, Daniel Cairo said with a sad face.

"The history of Cairo has always suffered from foreign invasions. Just a few years ago, Cairo's power system was torn apart by foreign interference, and the Marquis Benedict rebelled with Kronos on his back. At that time, Cairo was weak. But not now. We have tasted freedom, and we know that in order to defend our rights, we must be strong."

It was a strong voice.

There was no young king.

He overwhelms the crowd, showing his eyes burning with strong aspirations.

"The betrayal of Kronos was what everyone expected. We have been constantly preparing for this day, so it will not be easily destroyed. Prove it to your enemies. That the Kingdom of Cairo is not a country that is comfortable enough to cross the border at any time. The fact that if you set foot in our territory, you will pay a terrible price. We will share the future with Dmitry, and we will no longer be a country that yields to power."

blood boiled.

Daniel Cairo.

got up from his seat

Seeing everyone standing up following him, he looked into the eyes of the leaders and said strongly.

"Fight. Destroy the enemy In the chaos that lies ahead, on the hellish battlefield. I will also be with you."

last week.

It was a tough time.

Due to the daily attacks of the Kronos Empire, the western front did not stop screaming in pain.

"Aww!"

"Do not back down! When you step back, it's all over!

above the wall.

Cairo's soldiers swung their weapons against evil.

Due to the continuous magic attack, part of the wall had collapsed, and the soldiers of Kronos who rushed in like a wave were slaughtered at will.

There were piles of corpses everywhere.

Even if their willpower was great, they could not completely block the attack, and the blood-stained walls proved how fierce the past week was.

it was in jeopardy

But it survived.

The reason Cairo has not been able to give up until now is thanks to the two factors that support them.

First.

"The wall on the left is dangerous! Send in reserve forces and support it!"

In a chaotic battlefield.

Daniel Cairo was there.

His promise to share the danger was not in vain, and he appeared directly on the Western Front, inspiring Cairo's soldiers.

It didn't play a major role strategically.

It was the Marquis of Vandenberg who actually commanded the soldiers, but his very existence ignited the will of the soldiers.

die!

"The King of Cairo is watching! Fight to the end!"

"Never be pushed by your enemies!"

Everyone was smitten by evil.

Tears welled up.

past past.

Cairo was not a country.

Although Daniel Cairo was in the position of king, Cairo's people were pushed out of priority due to a torn apart system of power.

The empire always came first.

The moment Kronos says that Valhalla wants something. Cairo was forced to leave everything behind and follow their choices.

Now it was different.

Daniel Cairo put his country first.

He took care of the people's well-being and was making a country like a nation through union with Dmitry.

so that.

couldn't get away

How did I find freedom, but I couldn't give it away like this.

And second.

flash.

Papa Papa.

Chris roamed the battlefield.

a few days ago.

Cairo was on the verge of collapse, but the situation was reversed again when Dmitry sent reinforcements.

Dmitry's soldiers, including Chris, showed outstanding strength.

It was literally slaughtered by the influx of imperial forces, and the magicians of Phoenix exploded their magical powers and took on the role of one gang.

It was breathtaking.

It looks like it will collapse.

Cairo persevered.

Some might say it's only been a week, but that was the result of Cairo's thorough preparation.

'The war is not over yet.'

wow.

Daniel Cairo clenched his fist.

of course.

The Western Front was at stake.

However, according to reports, Roman Dmitry is moving to help the Umberto Kingdom break through the siege of Valhalla.

Things were changing.

From the moment Roman Dmitry joined, he believed that he would be able to try a counterattack and destroy the giant of the Kronos Empire.

really.

Really, maybe.

"Fight to the end! Show your enemies what kind of country Cairo is!"

I thought I might win this war.

dark space.

Alexander looked at the screens with a cold face.

first screen.

It was Dmitry.

He tried to destroy the place without Roman Dmitry by mobilizing Mystic and his shadows, but he ended up being crushed.

The process touched Alexander's heart.

Mystic, who specializes in space movement magic, was killed by Chris, and Ares was also captured alive by Kevin.

second screen.

It was Hector.

In fact, Hector was such a small country that he could not even treat it as a variable, and the Master of the Sky said that he would devour Edwin Hector and destroy them as planned.

However, something unexpected happened.

Edwin Hector rather absorbed the Celestial Magic Tower and reached the 7th circle.

After taking an oath of allegiance from the wizards of the sky, he showed how he endured for a week against Valhalla.

annoyed

It was the perfect plan.

Failure is unacceptable, but on the two battlefields where traitors were planted, something absurd happened.

It wasn't just that.

Valhalla failed to pursue Roman Dmitry.

As soon as he heard the report that the siege had been breached, Alexander immediately annihilated the reported existence.

"You're going crazy all the way to the end."

singly.

so one by one.

His plans were falling apart.

It is a perfect plan that has been melted down over the years, but the changes brought about by Roman Dmitry have created rifts throughout the continent.

Meanwhile, Roman Dmitry appeared in Umberto.

Even the plan to destroy Umberto failed, and the report that he had crossed the border could not be passed over with laughter any longer.

angry

anger was intense.

If things had gotten this complicated, he could have questioned his qualities by the person whom Alexander served.

"Roman Dmitry. You are making me move."

Curl rumble.

got up from his seat

He tried to hide his existence until the last moment, but Roman Dmitry made it impossible.

I will tear him apart.

As much as you made him angry, he will make him suffer even in death.

However.

not now

One last thing to check.

'I will send Castro to prove my method. I can't really defeat him in my own way. If Roman Dmitry is defeated, I will bring his soul back to life and look into his previous life. It is an important issue for me to find out about the life Roman Dmitry has lived, comparable to the conquest of the continent.'

that is.

It was a personal desire.

The intense longing that was cherished in the heart of a man named Alexander, who had nothing to do with the one he served.

Then the next goal has been set.

Alexander's gaze turned to one screen.

'Cairo.'

Western Front.

As Castro shouted, Alexander's target was the Kingdom of Cairo.

* * *

The day was bright.

Cairo and Kronos.

As in their daily routine, they fought to death in front of the fortress wall.

die!

"Kill every enemy!"

It was intense.

Seeing the people covered in blood with intent to kill each other, Alexander slowly walked towards the wall.

It was a pretty unrealistic scene.

Around him, a soldier with an arrow pierced through his head fell backwards, but he walked slowly as if he had been out for a walk.

That was then.

stand tall.

stopped walking.

From quite a distance, Alexander looked at the wall and gave him a gloomy look.

"It's over."

evil.

Mana woke up.

Alexander's fingertips pointed towards the wall.

"Lightning Punishment."

flash.

the world has become brighter

I wondered if the flashing light from the sky would color the whole world, but people's ears were momentarily blind.

yet.

Quang!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

A huge explosion pierced my ears.

The soldiers screamed and grabbed their bloody ears, but now the pain was no big deal to them.

The place where the lightning struck was destroyed.

The space that had been protected layer by layer with magic and guarded by thousands of soldiers was destroyed at once and took countless lives.

people lost their minds

The accident circuit was stopped.

At that time, when he could not yet accept whether this was reality, the wrath of heaven struck lightning several times as if it had not ended.

flash.

Quarreung.

Quiet rumble rumble.

The world turned white.

Allies and enemies were swept away by tremendous power, and there was no way for the Kingdom of Cairo to stop it.

Phonics wizards used defensive magic.

The shield that appeared in an instant blocked the lightning, but once the world flashed, the shield broke and pierced the wizards' heads.

It was overwhelming.

In just one magic, many troops were lost.

" iced coffee.

above the wall.

Daniel Cairo was in the ruined space.

suddenly.

One memory came to mind.

"The being who destroyed Odelia. He is a being who uses divine magic. Otherwise, it would be impossible to blow up the entire capital with magic."

memories of that day.

I had goosebumps all over my body.

Wizards dared to mention the status of the 9th Circle, but people were divided at that time, saying that it was not realistic.

I had no choice but to do so.

In a situation where it was difficult to accept even Shephir's 8th circle magic, the fact that the Kronos Empire had 9th circle wizard could not be admitted.

no.

was not to admit.

Dealing with the 9th Circle Wizard meant that there was a despair that could not be dealt with no matter how hard you tried.

and in front of you.

Alexander appeared.

Daniel Cairo exclaimed urgently as he strode towards the wall.

"Retreat everyone! Once we get out of here, we will rearrange the situation!"

It was a quick decision.

no matter what you think

There was no way to deal with that monster.

Now was not the time to be stubborn, but to take a step back, and Cairo and Dmitry's soldiers hurriedly left the battlefield with frightened faces.

It was a moment when all the efforts in the past became meaningless.

He had worked so hard to protect this place, but his escape appearance was helpless and shabby.

"????????"

Alexander laughed.

walked the battlefield

Looking at the people running away as if a fire had fallen on their feet, he exploded the magic of the tips of his fingers as if playing a prank.

die.

Quang!

Curl rumble rumble.

The pointed space exploded.

Many soldiers were engulfed in the explosion.

It was fun.

Seeing the enemies who had given up on fighting, Alexander put mana in his voice as if everyone were to listen.

okay! Scream like that! Fall into despair! Run away like a coward, and let the world know of my existence! I, Alexander, have come to the world. I will become the ruler of this continent!"

at Las.

Emperor Alexander.

He revealed his existence.
