The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 414

Chapter 414: The Fall of Chronos (5)

As expected.

People from the Marquis of Memphis.

If the Marquis of Memphis had been executed, they would have accepted the reality, but they secretly gathered in a closed room out of sight of others.

“… What do you all think about this matter?”

A close friend of the Marquis of Memphis.

Count Carrasco asked with a hard face.

When everyone was silent with sad faces, he added a word.

“The Marquis of Memphis is still alive. If we can rescue him and keep the sparks of the rebellion alive, we will be strong against Roman Dmitri. Of course, we know that this is a very difficult situation. Even when the power of the empire was strong, we couldn’t defeat Roman Dmitri, so if we tried to resist with only a few troops left, the odds would be slim. But can’t we just watch the Marquis of Memphis die?”

“you’re right. Besides, everyone knows we were from the Marquis of Memphis. The meaning of the regime change means that even if you survive, you will not live like a human being.”

their troubles.

came from power.

In Roman Dmitri’s system, they cannot live as the powerful.

If the fact that he had been a Marquis of Memphis before was a solid background, it was clear that he would follow like a tag in the future.

Due to this fact, they had no choice but to gather in a closed room.

The fact that the Marquis of Memphis was still alive made them unable to accept reality.

said Count Carrasco.

“a few days ago. I got a call from Count Snowdin in Valhalla. Valhalla expressed its willingness to fully assist if any plan was conceived. From now on, it’s a matter of choice. If we want our rights back, we’ll rescue the Marquis of Memphis, if we’re willing to accept our new reality, we’ll watch the Marquis of Memphis die. I will follow your opinion.”

that too.

I wasn’t sure.

I was in a situation where I was worried about which choice was right, so I tried to listen to everyone’s opinions.

OK.

one person said.

“All good. If we rescue the Marquis of Memphis and enlist the support of Count Snowdin, we can surely lay the groundwork for another war. But what does that mean? Roman Dmitri is the one who blew away a castle wall with layers of magic defense in one blow. Even Alexander, who uses the magic of the 9th circle, could not handle Roman Dmitri and had already crossed the river of death. By the way, Count Snowdin? Even Valhalla, how would you trust a person who can’t properly control things?”

all of them.

I knew the truth.

The moment they cross the line, those who are classified as traitors will be judged by Roman Dmitri.

“Roman Dmitry is not just a man of arms. While Emperor Cronus did not publicly kill, the Marquis of Memphis put it on display as if it were openly displayed. Maybe Roman Dmitri is hoping for a precedent. If anyone crosses the line. It will show strong punishment for those who break the law that I emphasized in my last speech.”

“… Still, the Marquis of Memphis is our benefactor. I can’t just watch him die.”

“Count Carrasco.”

We met eyes.

If the Earl of Carrasco was a close friend, the aristocrat now speaking was a cousin of the Memphis family.

“I am a blood relative of the Memphis family. Do you know why I am saying this? It is because if we accept reality, we can survive even if we do not enjoy wealth and glory. At least Dmitry Roman made it clear in his speech from the scaffold that he would give it a new chance. and.”

gritted it

I didn’t want to say it because it would look shabby, but I had to say it in order to convince everyone.

“I don’t want to fight monsters like Roman Dmitry anymore. Now I am too afraid just to look at him.”

* * *

That time.

There was a man in front of the scaffold.

The man with a rather young face could not hide his murderous eyes as he looked at the Marquis of Memphis.

“The Marquis of Memphis. You look good.”

“you… ?”

to a strange voice.

The Marquis of Memphis raised his head.

Although his vision was blurred and his ears were deafened from hanging there for days, he recognized at once who it was.

“You are the son of the Marquis of Creut. In the process of destroying the Kreut family, one of his sons ran away, and he appeared in front of me alive like this. Life is so much fun. So, do you intend to take revenge on me?”

like he said.

The Croyt family faced the crisis of extinction.

Fortunately, the Croyt family’s followers rescued the youngest, Jowelson, and all but one died.

Jowelson dreamed of a situation like today every day.

He vowed again and again that he would kill the Marquis of Memphis brutally to avenge his family who had cared for and loved him.

and.

An opportunity has arrived.

The moment you pick up your dagger and stab the Marquis of Memphis in the stomach, the fragile flesh will rip and blood will burst.

It was the moment I sincerely hoped for.

But something completely different came out of his mouth.

“no. I will not kill you.”

“You won’t kill me. i killed your father I stabbed him in the stomach just because he rebelled against me, and I killed your mother, your sister, and all the people of the Kreut family. But you won’t take revenge on me? Jowelson! kill me! If I, the enemy of your family, are alive like this, do you intend to cause me no pain? Hurry up and get the revenge you longed for!”

cried the Marquis of Memphis.

There was no way to live anymore.

Knowing what Roman Dmitry wanted, he hoped for a quick release from this pain.

Self-determination was impossible.

I had bitten my tongue once, but a wizard came and used a healing magic to put it back together.

Roman Dmitry’s intentions were clear.

It is acceptable to die by others, but not to die oneself.

This.

It was a chance.

Seeing him desperately trying to die, Jowelson showed a grin glistening with madness.

“That’s why I won’t kill you. look at you You, the most powerful person in Kronos, are begging me to end your life with a clumsy face. Why the hell do I have to do your favor?”

Looking at the Marquis of Memphis.

thought over and over again.

No matter what the opponent wanted, I kept thinking that killing myself was the true revenge.

but next to him.

There were smart people.

People who followed the Creut family told him that his life was not over yet.

“I will raise the Kreut family again. In order to do that, you must accept the new flow. I am truly grateful that Roman Dmitri is the new owner of this land. At least he won’t reject me with the prejudice of being from Kronos. And even if I don’t get blood on my hands, I’m sure I’ll give you a really hellish death.”

closely.

He clenched his fists.

He gripped it so hard that his fingernails dug into his skin and blood gushed out.

“No one, including me, will break the new law. The days of Kronos are over and we now know what to count. Marquis of Memphis. Today is the last time I come to see you. The next time I come to this place, it will be to see your already dead corpse in my eyes.”

end with that.

I turned my steps.

The Marquis of Memphis hurriedly shouted at the sight of him moving away.

“Oh, no! kill me! please kill me! Jowelson! Take your family revenge with your own hands!”

I was outraged.

cried out in evil

He shouted so much that his throat broke, but Jowelson never looked back until he was completely out of sight.

* * *

The sun was hot.

I don’t know how many days have passed.

In a hazy mind, the Marquis of Memphis looked at the sun rising in the sky with a face lost in fascination.

‘Where did it go wrong?’

last few days.

A lot of people have come and gone here.

Some made them spectacles, others, like Jowelson, looked on with wrathful eyes.

But no one touched him directly.

The law set by Roman Dmitry was absolute and he did not dare to cross the line because he knew what the cost of breaking it was.

and.

None of the Memphis family came to visit.

At first, he thought that he might be able to save himself even at the risk, but now he realized that it was a vain delusion.

It was a truly miserable life.

When he lived as a powerful person, he thought his life was perfect, but looking back now, there was not a single person he could truly trust.

if.

if you turn back time

Could it change the bleak reality?

‘It would be impossible. In the past, I would have made the same choices over and over again. Alexander, Emperor Cronus, was all that made me who I am today. I would never have thought that an unknown successor from the outskirts would destroy the Kronos Empire.’

nobody in the past.

This reality was unexpected.

Roman Dmitri was a mutant and even now his existence is unexplained.

His mistake was not the years he had lived for Cronus, but his excessive loyalty, not knowing that this situation would come.

Because I thought Kronos was everything in this world.

It never occurred to me that a person like Roman Dmitri could turn this game upside down.

gasped for breath.

Consciousness clouded.

The last thing that came into his sight was a scruffy-looking boy looking at this place as if he were watching a monkey.

like that.

dump.

The Marquis of Memphis lowered her head.

“… The Marquis of Memphis is dead.”

It was Chris.

just ten days

Upon hearing that he died after ten days, Roman Dmitry took his eyes off the data he was examining.

“The cause of death?”

“He died, not by murder, but by exhausting his vitality.”

“It means no one touched the Marquis of Memphis.”

“you’re right.”

It was as intended.

Marquis of Memphis.

Executing him was not simple.

It meant a symbol of establishing the relationship between Roman Dmitri and the people of the Kronos Empire in the future, and no one touched the Marquis of Memphis knowing that fact.

Even though I lost my family to him and took away a lot.

Rebellion against Roman Dmitri terrified him more than the seething anger.

said Roman Dmitry.

“With this, the people of Kronos have fully accepted the existence of me. As they watched the Marquis of Memphis die, they must have admitted that the Kronos Empire will never be the same. We will proceed as planned from now on. Summon the leaders of the Kingdom Union. And in this summons.”

I looked down at the table.

There was data analyzing Valhalla.

“The Valhalla Empire will also be included.”

* * *

Convocation order.

that fact was communicated.

The people following Count Snowdin showed signs of anger when Roman Dmitri summoned Valhalla.

“This is nonsense! Even if Dmitri defeats the Kronos Empire, they are still just a kingdom. But you dare to call the empire. The moment you accept this request, the Valhalla Empire is over.”

“I agree. If the Valhalla Empire bows its head, it is tantamount to acknowledging them.”

everyone is up

kingdoms and empires.

In terms of hierarchical relationships, the Valhalla Empire was clearly at the top.

Calling in Dmitri under the leadership of the Valhalla Empire might not have been possible, but being called out to a place prepared by Dmitri was unattractive.

Of course, he was not ignorant of the fact that Dmitri had laid the foundation for a leap into the empire.

However, he couldn’t accept this situation because of his pride as an empire.

said Count Snowdin.

“Roman Dmitry’s intentions are clear. It must be an idea to redefine the relationship between Valhalla and Dmitri by taking the lead in deciding the future of the continent. We will not compromise with them. Even if they did not attend the leading event, Valhalla declared a truce anyway, and Dmitri lost the justification for continuing the war. Of course, you will be penalized for this. But if Dmitri doesn’t do what he wants, at least we can preserve the identity of the empire.”

“All right.”

“I will follow orders.”

It was a real dilemma.

Not yet.

I wasn’t ready to hang my head.

It is true that the war was lost, but the fact that Dmitri was above Valhalla could not be accepted.

however.

“… I’m sorry, but can I say something?”

on the other side of the conference room.

The communications soldier looked troubled.

When everyone’s eyes focused on him, he spat out the words carefully with a really hard face.

“There is a part that Dmitry emphasized in this communication. This convocation is not a request, but an order, and he said that if he does not accept it, he will accept it as a protest.”

protest.

to that word.

The faces of the people were miserable.
