The heavenly demon can't live a normal life chapter 402

Continental Conquest (1)

Hector.

There, fierce battles were repeated every day.

The Valhalla Empire trying to break through and the Kingdom of Hector trying to block it.

Seeing the enemies rushing into the collapsed walls, Edwin Hector squeezed the circle's mana and expressed his magic.

"Fire Storm."

Beetle.

body trembled

A powerful roaring flame swept through the enemies, but the mana was depleted in an instant and almost collapsed on the floor.

But he clenched his teeth and persevered.

He knew that the will of the soldiers would be weakened if he showed any shaky appearance, so he did not lose his strong appearance even with a shaggy complexion.

"Put in the shields to buy some time! The wizards in the sky will have time to recover mana, and they will try to counterattack again!"

"all right."

The battlefield heated up.

In the meantime, Hector has waged his own war.

Dimitri's reinforcements arrived, but it was not enough to change the tide, and Edwin Hector's command ability and the power of the Sky Wizard somehow managed to hold on.

But that too has now reached its limit.

Seeing Edwin Hector breathing heavily, Butler slashed the enemy and shouted at him.

"Prince! I can't stand it any longer. At this rate, the very foundation of Hector's kingdom may collapse."

Border.

Hector's power was poured out.

In a situation that could lead to complete downfall rather than just one defeat, Butler first proposed a retreat.

Hector did as much as he could.

Just holding the ankles of the Valhalla Empire for over ten days, there was no one in the world to blame them.

However.

Edwin Hector did not back down.

Facing Butler's gaze, he showed a strong desire.

"We can't back down."

"Prince!"

"It's not bravery. It's what we have to do. Butler. If we give up our borders to the Valhalla Empire and step back, then what future do we have left? One defeat will bring us down like dominoes. And of the Valhalla Empire. His actions will have a huge impact on Dimitri, so he must endure. This war is not just a matter of victory or defeat, but the moment of defeat that will lead directly to the downfall of the kingdom. Fire Arrow!"

pod.

gurgling rumbling.

ignited a flame

As he climbed the wall and burned the enemy, Edwin Hector showed a pale complexion.

"Look at the essence. If Dimitri falls, it's all over. The disappearance of an opponent to block the Kronos Empire means that Hector will have to repeat the same suffering as when he suffered a poor harvest. We fear sacrifice. If our support increases the odds of Dimitri's victory even a little bit, I will stop the enemy by any means possible, even if the whole of Hector is engulfed in Fire Magic. That's the only way Hector can survive. It's the only way."

he knew it too

desperate reality.

Edwin Hector was a clever man, and he had no choice but to fight foolishly because he predicted the future.

Hector's future.

Dimitri had to be accompanied.

If Kronos, who casually uses black magic for their own ambitions, conquers the continent, Hector's people will suffer repeatedly.

could not tolerate

Even if Hector's history later remembered him as a foolish leader, he had to do his job.

flash.

Butler slashed the enemy.

He, already drenched in blood, said with a calm face.

" I see. No matter what the prince decides to do, I will stand by the prince until the end."

they.

They were born of a history of defeat.

Since Hector came to power when he was not a country like his country, the life they lived as powerful people was not so smooth.

However, I did not want to become a patriot who abandoned the country.

With such a weak mind, Butler would have grabbed hold of the Valhalla Empire's secret reach long ago.

Contrary to strong will.

The reality was horrendous.

With the walls collapsing and enemies constantly rushing in, I thought that there was no hope for the border now.

That was then.

"Prince Edwin! Victory! Roman Dimitri has won!"

A telecommunication soldier running haphazardly.

When everyone's eyes were focused for a moment, the signalman spoke the information he had just heard with a very remorseful expression on his face.

"Dimitri has completely defeated Kronos! And I just heard the report that he killed Emperor Alexander in the process!"

at that word.

'It's not over yet.'

closely.

Edwin Hector clenched his fists tightly.

Dimitri wins.

The tide of war has changed.

In an instant, the Kingdom Confederation took hold, and a videoconference was held immediately at Roman Dimitri's command.

Southern Three Kingdoms.

Hector.

Cairo.

Dimitri.

All major figures were present.

As the contents of the meeting had been communicated in advance, King Redford showed a worried reaction at first.

[ ] Are you really going to continue the war like this? War is, after all, consuming my flesh. If you can't save the situation that Kronos gave you an excuse for, you can't get it back later.]

[I am the same as King Redford. The opponent's power is still intact. The atrocities of the Empire deserve punishment, but we need to think and judge thoroughly.]

King Umberto also contributed.

It was advice.

He didn't just want to step back out of fear, but he questioned whether it was really necessary.

Conquest of the continent was not an easy problem.

If we set up a suitable place against Kronos and Valhalla, we could end the war as it is, but if we pushed it to the edge of the brink, the rat in the poison did not know what to do.

Roman Dimitri said.

"The reason I want to take advantage of this opportunity is that the command systems of both Kronos and Valhalla have collapsed. Valhalla has lost the Emperor. After a difficult time of rebellion and only peace has been restored, sudden chaos forces them to the battlefield. Count Snowdin, who is currently leading Valhalla, has not been able to fully control Valhalla. In recognition of his achievements, he is temporarily acting as the Emperor's agent, but he lacks the power to lead the people when the truth of Kronos is revealed."

Continental Conquest.

It's not an emotional decision.

After reflecting on the situation, after much thought, I made a decision.

"It is the same with Kronos. Kronos has built a solid power with the emperor, but when Alexander revealed his existence, he must have been in a big shock. Since it was revealed that the emperor who ruled Kronos was just a puppet, for the time being There will be chaos within, so a decision has been made. Over time, their chaos will stabilize and create additional dangers to survive in the new power system. Now is your chance. Two empires turned into sandcastles. If we bring it down, we can eliminate all visible danger."

screen all.

The representatives of each country swallowed their words.

I sympathized

It was certainly a good opportunity, but it was so dangerous that I couldn't readily follow it.

[Can I ask you one thing?]

It was Edwin Hector.

Although he had already won his allegiance, Roman Dimitri was also courteous for a public position.

"Say it."

[I also admit that this is a good opportunity. However, the present situation in the Kingdom unity is not very good. It is possible to fend off enemies on its own territory, but cannot afford to cross borders. How the hell are you going to destroy both empires? The moment you enter the enemy's territory, the aspect of war will be completely different from what it has been before.]

It was a valid question.

eyes were focused.

If they answered Edwin Hector's question perfectly, they would follow Roman Dimitri.

"The way is simple."

The moment you defeated Alexander.

Things have changed.

"Alexandr was a 9th circle wizard. Now that you have defeated such a being, how do you think the existence of 'I' is reflected to the enemies. From now on, I will use people's fears."

fear.

It was the deadliest weapon that could put an end to war.

a few days later.

Enemy appearances were seen at the border of Kronos.

The new commander, Baron Laurelo, who took charge of defending the border, swallowed dry saliva as he looked at the enemies.

"...how do you stop this?"

lately.

An order was issued from the superior.

The problem with Alexander was being checked, so it was an order to stop Dimitri's attack somehow.

As Baron Laurelo, there was no choice but to be frustrated.

According to the news from the battlefield, the opponent was the devil of the battlefield, but Baron Laurelo had no intention of paving the way.

Why was he placed here.

Baron Laurelo was a polarizing patriot.

He was assigned as a new commander because he was a man who could hold on to his position foolishly even in the face of a bleak reality.

Unlike him.

The soldiers were terrified.

With a pale, tired face, he struggled to calm his trembling body and looked at the battlefield.

clinging clinging.

The soldiers of the Kingdom Union stopped walking.

Then.

A man walked out.

It was Roman Dimitri.

At a time when people's insecurity prevailed, Roman Dimitri looked over the walls and raised his voice.

"I am Roman Dimitri of Dimitri. In an hour from now, I will attack you. I will break down the walls and slaughter every enemy I see. But before that, I will give you one chance."

above the wall.

The soldiers murmured.

chance.

It was an unexpected development for them.

"Current Emperor Kronos was a puppet of Alexander. Alexander was a devil who touched black magic while living eternal life, and he has committed many evil deeds that should not be done as a human. I will ask you. Do you intend to sacrifice your life for the sake of it? If you are going to fight for the devil who sacrifices even a human soul for personal desire, take up your weapon and defend it."

I touched the reverse.

Aleksandr's existence was the most important issue that currently confuses Kronos.

"But if you want a new life. Open the gates within an hour. If you show your will to fight to the end with the tightly closed gates, then I will kill you without leaving a single one alive."

at the end of that word.

Roman Dimitri walked away with no regrets.

* * *

Seongan.

People divided into two factions engaged in a fierce battle of words.

the opposition said

"Never open the gates."

"We are the people of Kronos. If we open the gates and let Dimitri in, how will we live in the future? The future of the tyrants who have abandoned their country will be bleak. We may be able to overcome the crisis now, but if an armistice is negotiated, how will we live? On the day of the signing, we will be branded as maekukno, and we will be no different."

"Let's fight to the end. This is the Empire's territory, isn't it?"

they.

believed in the empire.

As a person belonging to the continent's greatest power, he could not accept defeat yet.

Then a man tapped his chest as if frustrated.

"Are you all crazy? Your opponent is Roman Dimitri. A monster that slaughtered the 9th Circle Wizard, Alexander, and slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Imperial armies. How are you going to survive against such a monster? Do you all have any special methods? I assure you. In less than a day, this place will be destroyed."

his name.

It was Hermann.

A soldier from the Kronos Empire, he raised his voice against those of higher rank than himself.

"Think rationally. Even when the power of the Kronos Empire was strong, Kronos never defeated Roman Dimitri. And why did Roman Dimitri appear on the border with his troops after a great victory? His purpose is not a simple truce negotiation like last time. To cry out patriotism foolishly to him who came to him with the intention of ending Kronos would be suicidal."

"Be careful with your words!"

among people.

Baron Laurelo appeared.

Hearing the fierce battle of words, he said with a determined expression.

"I know what you're worried about. But the long history of the Kronos Empire has always been marked by victories. I think this time is no different. It's clearly a disadvantage, but there's a good reason why the Marquis of Memphis ordered a desperate fight. I think there is."

I looked around the soldiers.

As he moved, he showed a strong will.

"We are Kronos. We are the rulers of the continent, and predators who cannot live by bowing their heads to guys like Dimitri. But if you are swayed by the words that induce surrender, don't you feel sorry for the ancestors who made Kronos today? Fight. Protect. If we risk our lives and devote ourselves to Kronos, the glory of being the greatest power on the continent will always shine for us."

grabbed people

Whatever the truth of Kronos.

Baron Laurelo put the safety of the country first.

Kneeling down to Dimitri for mercy was absolutely unacceptable for him.

took a step back

From now on, I had to busily prepare for Mercury.

But then.

hooked.

" ?!"

Baron Laurelo's eyes widened.

let's look down

He could see the red-stained chest and the protruding tip of the sword.

The moment I looked back with trembling eyes, I saw Hermann stabbed in the back, supported by evil.

"Baron Lorelo. We are just one people. Crying patriotism does not make our lives richer by the glory of Kronos. So, I must live for now."

dump.

Baron Laurelo has fallen.

Shocked by the blood that spread from him, Kronos' soldiers were unable to utter any words.

Hermann drew his sword.

Shaking blood violently, he shouted at people.

"The water has already spilled. If you don't want to die like this, open the gates right now!"

only 30 minutes.

Before the hour that Roman Dimitri had predicted, Kronos opened the gates wide and announced his intention to surrender.

that is.

It was an unpredictable variable for the leaders of Kronos.
