Chapter 363 Conclusion of Civil War (2)
The wait was long.
Marquis Belfir conveyed his intention to talk to Dmitri, but he couldn’t sit still thinking that something might go wrong.
The water has already spilled.
I don’t know if I hadn’t been in touch, but from the moment I made a decision, I had to somehow make a way for myself to live in the future in my relationship with Roman Dmitri.
how long did you wait
Communication was finally established.
[The Marquis of Belfir. What business did you contact?]
I was very embarrassed.
Roman Dmitri’s cold voice reminded him of their relationship once again, but the one he regretted now was the Marquis of Belfir.
relationship in the past? Pride as a powerful person? The hunger for survival suppressed all of that.
“… I will tell you my thoughts straight forward. I don’t think the reason Roman Dmitri spared me was to be merciful. You must have clear intentions. I want to share that intention and talk about the future ahead. Of course, I know very well that I don’t like it. But I am sure that talking with me will definitely benefit Dmitry.”
said in a strong tone.
In order to express himself, the Marquis of Belfir actively presented himself.
[I don’t like people who are just talkative. give me 10 minutes In the meantime, prove your worth.]
Why?
beyond the screen.
Roman Dmitry seemed to look down on him with an arrogant face.
I swallowed dry saliva.
The other party wasn’t very sympathetic, but I got a chance to speak anyway.
That alone was enough of a reason to go all out on this call.
“There are several truths in Valhalla that are treated as top secrets. People think that the 14th son, Emperor Valhalla, suddenly rebounded without any sign. That’s not true. I also recently learned that the previous emperor had already expressed his intention to pass his throne to his 14th son in an official document. So, it means that it is safe to say that the current special forces possessed by the Emperor of Valhalla originated from the former Emperor. It is still a mystery why the previous emperor chose the 14th son and passed it on through rebellion rather than normal means. What is certain is… … .”
took a nap
After inducing the expectation of the opponent, I gave strength to the words.
“The dangerous rumor that the Emperor of Valhalla might have a connection with Kronos is untrue. I don’t know the exact truth of the Emperor of Valhalla and what level of special power he has. Even though I have served the Emperor of Valhalla for a long time, he is still a difficult person, but I know quite a lot of truths that others like this cannot know. Not only that, there are many nobles who follow me in Valhalla. Those who fear the Emperor of Valhalla usually rely on me for a lot, and thanks to that, the power I possess is at a level that can have a tremendous impact on the current Valhalla landscape.”
It was the weakness of the politics of terror.
The Emperor of Valhalla carried out a coercive politics that did not care about the eyes of his subordinates, and as a result, the Marquis of Belfir naturally formed a force.
If the power of the emperor had remained intact, such power would have been meaningless.
but.
It was different now.
In a situation where the status of the emperor was shaken, the nobles of Valhalla had no choice but to listen to the words of the Marquis of Belfir.
“I won’t ask for much. Help me to remain in power as the rebels bring down the Emperor of Valhalla and usher in a new era. I don’t think it’s a losing trade for Dmitry and the rebels either. This is our chance to seize the face of this tense battlefield once and for all, instead of giving up some parts.”
His remarks were persuasive.
last few days.
Contemplating the aftermath of his own judgment countless times, Marquis Belfir pondered how to persuade Roman Dmitri.
And I came to the conclusion that it was possible.
Roman Dmitry is famous for his cruelty to his enemies, but from the moment he spared himself, contrary to popular belief, he believed there were exceptions.
I did my best.
Now it’s Roman Dmitri’s turn.
While I was waiting for a positive answer, I heard embarrassing words over the communicator.
[I heard you well. But I had no intention of accepting you from the beginning.]
* * *
Moment.
My heart sank.
What the hell does this mean?
Didn’t you want to accept yourself from the start?
Confused, the Marquis of Belfir stuttered.
“What do you mean by that? If nothing was desired of me, there would be no reason to keep me alive in the Imperial Palace of Valhalla. If you killed Belfir, the center of power in Valhalla. Roman Dmitri-sama would surely have benefited from the fear spreading among the Valhalla nobles.”
to that certainty.
I heard the magic communicator.
Because he believed that he had something he wanted, he pondered for several days to come up with an attractive proposal.
[You’re overestimating yourself quite a bit.]
Laughed.
Picture like now.
expected
It was intended and induced, but he drew a different picture from the Marquis of Belfire.
[I do not reject those who face reality and cling to the strong. I think those kinds of people are a necessary part of being reborn as a great nation, but there are clear standards for how I treat people. Did you cross the line or not? Is there room for forgiveness? Marquis of Belfire. Which standard do you think you meet?]
“Yeah… .”
I was speechless.
past things.
The bad relationship with Dmitri came to mind.
The Marquis of Belfir had a considerable influence on the process of inviting Cronus to the Valhalla festival and trying to assassinate him.
I bit my lips softly in an ominous feeling.
If you think about it, the Marquis Belfir couldn’t be seen as having anything to do with Cronus’ warp incident that made Dmitri angry.
then.
Why did you let yourself live?
No matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t find an answer to that question.
“What the hell do you want from me! Please tell me the truth!”
I cried out in frustration.
And the reply shocked him.
[As you said, you are a being that exerts considerable influence within Valhalla. so i saved you It created a deep distrust between you and the Emperor of Valhalla, and made a plan that you cannot go back to the Emperor of Valhalla.]
From beginning to end.
It was intentional.
It didn’t just end with a simple split in disbelief, but I also pictured the situation after that in my head.
[Fortnight from now. I will send a record of your correspondence with the Emperor of Valhalla. What are you thinking and what proposals have you made to me to destroy the Valhalla royal family? We will reveal all the contents of the magical communication we exchanged. Marquis of Belfire. Because of your influence, I thought there was a better way than getting blood on my hands. And the fact that I induced your actions is not so important. The Emperor of Valhalla who hears this magic communication will express his anger at your heart.]
I was in shock.
Roman Dmitry forced the harsh truth on the distraught Marquis Belfir.
[So from now on, in order to survive, destroy the Emperor of Valhalla by any means necessary. If the power of the Emperor of Valhalla is still strong after 15 days. You will surely die to the Valhalla Emperor, not me.]
* * *
Tuk.
Communication was cut off.
Marquis Belfir shouted urgently, but Roman Dmitri did not bother to continue the conversation with him.
“People become desperate when they are driven to the edge of a precipice.”
Marquis of Belfire.
Accepting him is one way.
But even then, the Marquis of Belfir must have thought of the situation and constantly devised a way to survive.
So I blocked the retreat.
If defeating the Emperor of Valhalla was the only way to survive, he had no choice but to gather all his strength to achieve his goal.
And above all.
He didn’t want to let the Marquis of Belfire live.
Roman Dmitry’s mercy was enough to keep him alive for a few more days.
Self-centeredness (????).
plate was laid
In a situation where Valhalla is eating each other from the inside, the Valhalla Imperial Family will experience a truly unprecedented crisis.
‘Can the rebellion really succeed?’
Hernard’s Rebels.
riotous people.
Dmitry’s Allied Army in the North.
A coalition of kingdoms on the Western Front.
Finally, to the traitor inside.
The picture was perfect.
His strength was enough to destroy most countries, but his thoughts changed when he experienced the Emperor of Valhalla himself.
‘The Marquis of Belfir told the Emperor of Valhalla that there was a mysterious truth. It is impossible to find out what it is even with Hao Mun’s intelligence, but what is certain is that he has a much stronger force than revealed. Something that could turn the tide. Just as Cronus mobilized power unknown to the world, such as the magician of the 8th circle, the Emperor of Valhalla will not collapse just like this.’
It was certain.
Meeting at the Imperial Palace.
The Emperor of Valhalla chose to run away, but there was no fear of death in his eyes.
It was a brief difference.
In a situation where he could have died if he had made the slightest mistake, his indifferent and empty eyes looked at Roman Dmitri without wavering.
In a previous life, Roman Dmitry had several experiences with people like him. Beings who are nothing could never show such eyes.
blast furnace.
The possibility of the rebellion failing was taken into account.
Because Valhalla was driven into an extreme situation, whatever the result, it will be directly linked to Dmitri’s benefit.
‘There is only one variable that can occur from now on.’
Kronos.
Only their intervention can save Valhalla from the chaos.

A few days ago.
Cairo Western Front.
The commander there, the Marquis of Vandenberg, closely watched the movements of the Kronos Empire’s forces across the border.
“I mean, it’s kind of strange.”
last few days.
Valhalla was truly a crucible of confusion.
If they wanted to solve the Valhalla problem, it was the normal response for the Cronus Empire to immediately cross the border and attack Cairo.
It is said that the last ceasefire negotiations suffered great damage.
If it was the alliance between Valhalla and Cronus, there was no reason for the Cronus Empire to stand by.
however.
There was no big change.
Seeing the troops moving only in the name of training, the Marquis of Vandenberg felt rather ominous.
‘The Kronos Empire is a warlike country. There is no reason for a country of scoundrels, who held the other party accountable even if they made mistakes, to bow down so far after a single defeat. They obviously have some conspiracy. I don’t know what it is, but I don’t like it just because the Kronos Empire is standing by.’
Western Front.
In the meantime, I experienced all sorts of dirty things with Cronus.
In a situation where his instincts warned him strongly, Marquis Vandenberg immediately contacted Roman Dmitri.
[I think we need to figure out what Cronos intends.]
The game has changed.
It wasn’t the passive attitude of waiting for the enemies to move.
Now he was actively seeking to disrupt the enemy’s plans.
a few days later
At the behest of Roman Dmitry, one figure headed for the Kronos Empire.
* * *
Capital of Kronos.
The warp gate there raised a bright light.
Anger –
Cheeky.
Cronus’ soldiers.
They looked hideous.
The being now passing through the warp gate was one of the figures that were mentioned as dangerous in the Kronos Empire.
yet.
Enveloped in the light, a man stepped forward.
“Wow. This is why long-distance warps are difficult.”
man’s identity.
It was Count Fabius.
He looked around and smiled.
‘That’s true. Bastards’ eyes are brutal.’
To the Kronos Empire.
He was commanded by Roman Dmitry.
Even though he knew it was quite dangerous, Count Fabius spoke in an unstoppable voice to the knight who came to meet him.
“I heard rumors that Emperor Cronus went into rest. So please guide whoever has the decision-making power in Kronos. Ah, I warned you in advance, but if you bring the kids who are falling prey to it, I will return without delay.
scratched his stomach.
In an attitude so bold as to be absurd.
The expression of the knight who met him turned even colder.
