The day was bright.

On a morning that seemed like it would never come, Hector's soldiers could not hide their disastrous expressions.

" It's morning."

"Damn it."

It was a complex feeling.

While he was angered by the fact that he stayed up all night with no results, he breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

fear of darkness. I couldn't be vigilant for even a single moment in the night.

Not knowing when Roman Dmitry would come out and bring death, Hector's soldiers woke up to the morning sun.

The battle is over.

As the darkness moved away, there were no further attacks, and the kingdom of Hector lost the power to pursue them.

"Move the corpses of your comrades. They will appease their souls with cremation, and get enough rest."

"Give me a little bit of strength!"

The order was dropped.

Hector's soldiers followed the orders with an anguished look.

It wasn't just one or two corpses.

It was impossible to completely move the body in such a miserable state that it was frowned upon, but the ones that were still in good condition were taken care of as much as possible.

Although it was difficult, there were no complaints.

If I had had a little luck, the body that had fallen on the floor might have been me, so even though I was tired, I did not forget the courtesy to the dead.

among those people.

Edwin Hector also carried the body down the mountain.

"Commander. You don't have to move yourself."

no. They are dead because of me. Even if I can't save them, I don't want to leave the path to the sky to the soldiers alone.

" ."

Jackson gave him a sad look.

Edwin Hector did his best.

but.

The opponent was just strong.

Jackson wanted to give him a word of consolation, but Edwin Hector wasn't ready to talk right now.

'This is my defeat.'

messed it up

I shed tears of blood inside.

As the day dawned and the corpses were revealed, Edwin Hector couldn't contain his guilt as he looked at the corpses that had been scattered without a moment to step.

Pieces on the chessboard.

When giving the order, he accepted their sacrifice with ease, but when he confirmed the reality with the result of defeat, his heart seemed to collapse.

reversed

Due to his lack of ability, it was difficult to accept that so many people had died.

'I was overconfident of myself. From the moment I decided that I could handle the variable Roman Dmitry with my abilities, the perfect plan began to crumble. The plan that was thought to be lesser evil became the worst option, and from now on, the kingdom of Hector has no choice but to face a desperate situation that was not planned.'

It was the worst.

Leaving Hector.

I promised myself I would win.

After reviewing the plan countless times, Edwin Hector was convinced that his plan had no chance of failure.

But sometimes it's a reality.

The steps were heavy.

The weight that was transmitted from the back carrying the corpse on his back kept his feet firmly entrenched.

how much did it move

Edwin Hector, who finally moved all the corpses down the mountain, set fire to the corpses piled up like a mountain.

Hwareuk.

gurgling.

A fire broke out.

He didn't say anything.

just blankly

Edwin Hector and his men watched the blazing fire.

* * *

The funeral is over.

Edwin Hector convened the leaders.

Falling into despair is only temporary.

The reality in front of me, I realized that no one else could solve it.

"To report the damage."

"It will take more time to get an accurate figure, but a rough estimate shows that about 700 soldiers were killed overnight. On the contrary. The enemy killed less than ten."

"Huh."

" this.

A sigh broke out.

It was an overwhelming defeat.

Edwin Hector clasped his trembling hands and bowed his head.

"It is a defeat due to my judgment. I will take this opportunity to apologize for giving you the wrong order."

Prince!

"What the hell are you talking about! It's not the Commander's fault!

The leaders jumped up from their seats.

among them.

Butler said with an angry face.

"None of us blame the Prince. Roman Dmitry. Known as the three-star aura swordsman, he was strong enough to defeat the prince and our co-defenders. Who the hell can predict such a variable? The opponent was just too strong. We don't want to see the prince bow his head."

Yes.

"Give me a new order. We are still looking at you, Commander."

everyone agreed

battle in the mountains.

Having faced Roman Dmitry himself, they did not believe that this defeat was Edwin Hector's fault.

Butler is right.

Roman Dmitry was a monster.

Mobility that pierces through encirclement, and the force that takes lives in a single blow.

Even when he first entered the mountain, no one could have predicted such a variable in the kingdom of Hector.

Edwin Hector said.

"I am the captain. But since no one else can solve our problems, I want to issue a new order to you guys. If you think that my orders are judgments headed for defeat again. Regardless of your position, I want you to say it unconditionally."

"I take orders."

sat down

looking at the burning fire.

Edwin Hector pondered for a long time.

Now, facing the worst situation, special measures were needed to overturn the situation.

"We cannot return to the kingdom without any income. Therefore, before the main force of the Cairo Kingdom arrived on the southern front, all the front-line defensive positions that had been put off to attack will be cleared up. The deadline is ten days. In it, you should definitely organize the remnants of Cairo. After that, we will use the rear position as a base to prepare for a desperate fight."

" What will Roman Dmitry do? He will definitely thwart our plans."

Roman Dmitry.

The faces of the leaders hardened just by the name.

It was a dangerous enemy.

I don't know what variables he may create, but that doesn't mean he can't do anything because of one person.

"I admit that Roman Dmitry is a dangerous enemy. However, if he tries to sabotage our plans, we can rather get revenge. Battles in the mountains and battles in the plains, which took advantage of darkness and geographic advantage, are completely different. front-line defensive positions. The place that Cairo cannot give up will be a bait to attract Roman Dmitry."

It was a shift in thinking.

Southern Fort.

They were planning to lure Roman out as bait.

After the main force arrives, then, Roman Dmitry cannot afford to exist.

ten days.

It was a gamble.

If you deal with Roman Dmitry or capture all of the southern positions, you can say that you have met the minimum conditions for a desperate fight.

However.

"It is difficult to get the desired reward against Cairo by fighting alone. Already we have lost a thousand soldiers by Roman Dmitry, and the Kingdom of Cairo must have seen our intentions. If you go in the long run, you will end up at a disadvantage. What are you going to do then?"

That was the most important issue.

purpose of war.

And.

Edwin Hector found an answer after much deliberation.

"It is not necessary to receive compensation from the Cairo Kingdom. The moment we fully grasp the Southern Front. As the prince of the kingdom of Hector, I intend to propose a deal to the Kronos Empire."

he thought

The war isn't over yet.

that time.

The Cairo Kingdom was busy preparing for negotiations with the Hector Kingdom.

A person who manages a country's treasury.

Count Ayer said with a firm face.

"The financial situation in Cairo cannot accommodate all the conditions of the Hector Kingdom. in the last year. Kronos' frequent provocations put a substantial budget on the Western Front. As a result, even if Hector's request is granted in a situation where there is little money to spare, Cairo's treasury will inevitably run out.

" How about collecting more taxes?"

"It is impossible. I already raised my taxes once half a year ago. When the tax was raised for the sake of national security, the backlash was great, but if you say you will raise it again in half a year, there may be riots."

It was a disappointing report.

At the decisive attitude of Count Ayer, King Daniel Cairo sighed.

"What do you mean by this?"

It was cumbersome.

As the king, it was his duty to solve the problem, but no matter how much he thought about it, he could not come up with an answer.

'The only way to solve the problem is to use the wealth of the nobles. But that method will never be approved by the central government. nobles of Cairo. They are not people who will devote themselves to the country.'

Cairo was a very funny country.

Although the royal power seemed to be strong in the face of foreign invasions, it only belonged to the local nobles, and the central government was different.

Marquis Benedict.

The Earl of Denver.

Count Gregory.

Their power was out of the question.

Even if the Kingdom of Cairo was completely destroyed, it was clear that they would put their own interests first.

" There is no way."

finally.

I had no choice but to negotiate.

The drying up of the treasury was a problem to be resolved later.

No matter how difficult the situation, the Southern Front could not be handed over to the Kingdom of Hector.

last meeting.

Due to the argument of the Earl of Denver, it was decided that we should trust Roman Dmitry and wait for three days.

But that's it.

The nobility of the central government, including Daniel Cairo, did not wish for a miracle.

I waited because I had three days to spare, but I didn't really think what Roman Dmitry would do.

got up from his seat

As Hector's notification date approached, the issue of negotiation could not be resolved alone.

"Contact the aristocrats of the central government. We will hold a meeting on the matter of negotiation."

Okay.

That was then.

The door to the conference room swung open.

The knight of the Royal Knights raised his voice with a face full of reminders.

"His Majesty, Daniel! A call has arrived that the enemy has been defeated on the Southern Front!"

victory report.

At the unexpected news, Daniel Cairo's eyes widened.

The nobility of the central government was convened.

meeting room.

The nobles gathered there reacted in disbelief to the news reported by the royal family.

"Is it really true that Roman Dmitry defeated the kingdom of Hector?"

"I still don't know. Hector's kingdom mobilized as many as ten thousand troops to attack the southern front. That's something the Southern Front could never handle, and I don't know how Roman Dmitry defeated the Hector Kingdom. You'll know for sure if you check it out. If Roman Dmitry is really telling the story of victory, then we are on our way."

It was a conversation between Earl Gregory and Marquis Benedict.

Actually.

I still couldn't believe it.

In particular, the Earl of Denver, who said let's trust Roman Dmitry, was just stunned by the reality of the situation.

'Roman Dmitry. Have you really overcame that difficult situation?'

It was great.

From the time I took down Barco with Lawrence, I knew that he wasn't an ordinary person, but this achievement was a different matter than before.

Roman Dmitry is not just a person to be dismissed as a four-star prosecutor.

It will be even more shocking to those who know it as a three-star test.

If he had the ability to overthrow a devastating war, it was clear that he was gifted with considerable talent as a commander.

The atmosphere was chaotic.

Finally.

As Daniel Cairo entered the conference room, the knight who was waiting in advance connected the magic communicator.

"I will now connect communications to the Southern Front."

Mana woke up.

Beyond the screen, a man's face appeared.
