For a definite conclusion (1)

The sun was shining outside the window.

A middle-aged man lying in a hospital bed struggled to open his eyes and looked out the window with blank eyes.

" You are not dead."

dry voice.

The true identity of the man was Count Nicholas.

With a slightly distorted expression on his face at the belated pain, he lowered his gaze and checked his body.

It was really messed up. As if to prove how dangerous it was, the entire upper body was covered with bandages.

'Only the outward trauma was serious, Roman Dmitry had no intention of killing me.'

It was the conclusion I came to after examining my body.

The scar from the upper chest to the pubic bone was terrifying to see, but only the skin was cut, and no internal injuries were inflicted.

Roman Dmitry was sure to show mercy.

Although he produced a dramatic scene on the surface for a generational change, his image of himself still alive proved Roman's sincerity.

in fuzzy memories.

I remembered Roman's last words.

"Don't worry about the next day. I have no intention of betraying Cairo."

right after hearing that.

Count Nicholas was struck by lightning.

People thought that Count Nicholas had a foreboding of death and opened his eyes, but the truth was that the voice that dug into his head was so embarrassing.

Roman Dmitry's intentions could not be understood.

His actions in the past did not have any contact with the Cairo royal family, rather he seemed to fit in with powers such as the Marquis Benedict.

Roman Dmitry is the weight of balance. His attachment to the aristocracy meant that Cairo's royal family with Count Nicholas could no longer hold up.

so.

I went to the public ranking match.

By defeating Roman Dmitry, he wanted to show how high a wall he is still.

The result was an overwhelming defeat.

People would think it was a fierce battle, but Count Nicholas, who mixed the sword himself, knew that Roman Dmitry was at least two more than him.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to show such an overwhelming appearance in the ensuing head-to-head confrontation.

Roman Dmitry followed the intentions of Count Nicholas, but never pushed back, and in the end, he had the opportunity to show mercy in his hands.

Defeat.

It was an unfortunate result.

But the fact that he was still alive and the last words he heard gave Count Nicholas trouble.

'First, we need to understand the situation.'

"Ugh."

got up

I still need time to recover though.

For Count Nicholas, it was more important to understand the situation of Cairo's royal family than his own well-being.

called Simon.

Seeing Count Nicholas looking up at him in the hospital bed, Simon looked as if he was about to burst into tears at any moment.

" I just knew the manager was going to die. I am really, really happy."

Count Nicholas.

It was Simon's sky.

Count Nicholas smiled warmly at his affectionate feelings for him.

"It's been a lot of hard work."

no. I just did what I had to do."

"If you hadn't led the Royal Knights and gave them the center, the chaos in Cairo would have been aggravated. I'm so proud of you. Because of you, I was able to go out in the public rankings with peace of mind."

half a year ago.

He entrusted Simon with the vacant position of deputy commander-in-chief.

People expressed doubts about Simon's ability to not even be a four-star prosecutor, but Count Nicholas thought Simon was the right fit for him.

The Royal Knight is the guardian of the royal family.

Loyalty to the royal family was more important than swordsmanship skills in order to maintain an unwavering heart despite all kinds of temptations.

That was Simon.

mid 40's.

Even if his potential as a swordsman wasn't great, he was a man really suited to the name of the Royal Knight.

Count Nicholas said.

"Simon. Tell me what happened while I was down."

Okay. Immediately after the headmaster collapsed... ."

The talk began.

The clash between Roman Dmitry and the nobles.

Later, Roman Dmitry went to the king and offered a deal, explaining that the civil war had begun in earnest.

In the process, he showed a sincere respect for Roman.

Although this work was carried out for a certain price, the process of handling the work was truly admirable.

Disposition against the imperialists.

And a plan to move a giant named Valentino to open the board.

The kings had the upper hand.

With only one ally, Roman Dmitry, the royal faction overwhelms the other forces.

" This is the situation. We are now about to go to war. The commander is Roman Dmitry, and we plan to attack the nobles of the Marquis Benedict right away."

explanation is over.

Count Nicholas was deep in thought.

Roman Dmitry.

The best swordsman ever in Cairo was born.

Depending on the choice he made, the game of Cairo could be changed somehow, but Roman Dmitry gave up the glory of wealth and chose the king.

I was really grateful.

The fact that a monster that even himself could not handle did not abandon the Cairo royal family was something to say thanks to Heaven in itself.

this war.

If you lose, it's over.

Even though he couldn't go directly to the battlefield due to an injury, he couldn't help but sit like this.

"Simon. Take me to the launch ceremony. There is work to be done there."

emotions were boiling.

A chance to fix the kingdom.

In a historic moment, I wanted to add even a little bit of strength.

finally.

The moment of decisive battle has come.

At the soon-to-be-launched deployment, Roman Dmitry was armed and stepped forward.

iron-clad, iron-clad.

It was a different outfit than usual.

Although Roman was minimally armed because it interfered with movement, he is now fully armed in the position of representing the royal family.

A silver armor engraved with the symbol of the royal family.

And the pure white skin and black hair had a charm that caught people's eyes at once.

far away

I saw people waiting for me.

King Daniel Cairo and other members of the royal family, and on the other hand, an unexpected person stood there.

Count Nicholas.

He appeared with a sick body.

Roman Dmitry knew what that meant.

'Count Nicholas is a symbol of the military. Even though I lost in the public ranking match, to show up at the ceremonies would mean that I was completely entrusted with the control of the military. The King of Cairo and the Count Nicholas too. You have not yet lost your innocence in the chaotic power system.'

perhaps.

Roman may have been drawn to that innocence.

If he followed the Marquis Benedict, he would have eaten Cairo with ease, but he knew that a mass of desires not satisfied with what he had would surely cause problems.

A time when they ruled Moorim.

Just as Baek Joong-hyeok had a friendly relationship with the emperor, he wanted Cairo to play the same role.

widely.

took a seat

numerous troops.

They looked up at Roman.

Roman looked at them and said in a calm voice.

"Cairo has been through a turbulent time. The aristocrats, including the Marquis Benedict, are a people who care for their own interests rather than the security of the country, and because of them, Cairo was never allowed to lead a peaceful life. We will now go to punish the treason. What we gain from a civil war in which people of the same lineage die and kill each other will be indelible pain, but I promise to completely clean up the chaos that arises in Cairo after this war is over. And ."

drew his sword

War.

What the anxious people need is the conviction that they will surely win.

"I will always be at the vanguard of this war. So trust me and follow me. If I open the way, you guys follow me to victory."

"Woah ah ah ah ah!"

"Roman! Roman!"

people were excited

The scariest thing in Cairo.

His promise to be at the forefront gave people blind trust.

Now there is no turning back

War.

A battle for the fate of the country has begun.

nobility.

Their response was as expected.

They gathered troops in Benedict's estate and held a meeting on the report that the royal army had moved.

"If you use the nearby warp gate, the kingdom's forces will attack Benedict in as little as a week. For now, the odds of an all-out war are very slim. We have to lock the gates and seize the opportunity to turn things around while keeping Mercury's advantage."

As one nobleman said.

The situation for the nobility was not good.

At first, it was thought that if the troops were gathered, the royal family could be wiped out at once, but the declaration of support of the Marquis Valentino and the betrayal of the Count Fabius were fatal.

Of course, even with the raccoon of Kairos, it was still not clear why the Marquis Valentino had changed his mind.

A key figure in the nobility.

said Viscount Owen.

"The Marquis Valentino has always been neutral. In case problems arise from taking sides with one faction, I drew a line that was excessively long. Such a person has declared that he will support Roman Dmitry. It means that the nobles will be pushed out of the historically grasped power, and there is really no way to stop Roman Dmitry while losing most of the talented in the public ranking match.

They admitted it too.

Roman's plan was perfect.

I was truly impressed when I discovered the hidden intentions of the public ranking match, as well as the fact that the Marquis of Valentino was brought in.

the problem is.

Such a being was the enemy.

Hearing his performance on the Southern Front, he did not dare to choose an all-out war.

"Currently, the aristocrats are unable to properly utilize half of their power. Accepting the reality, I believe that in order to defeat Roman Dmitry's Kingdom Army, we have to take some damage. Marquis Benedict. Why not reach out to the nobles who follow Kronos and Valhalla? They have no choice but to worry about the future as their leader is now in custody. If you give them a reasonable excuse, they will certainly not turn down our offer."

" Not a bad way."

The Marquis Benedict nodded.

The other three factions except the royal faction.

The possibility of holding hands at any time was left open.

If Gregory and the Earl of Denver were alive and well, they would have chosen to wait and see, but the beings who lost their heads were a possibility.

asked the Marquis Benedict.

"How long does it take to convince them?"

"There should be at least a full moon. It takes time to change their minds, but it also takes quite a bit of time to gather and unite troops. So first I want to buy some time through Mercury. You can defeat Roman Dmitry's kingdom forces if you draw the support of other factions while you have time and try to attack from both sides with them."

I know. I will entrust you with all authority related to it."

"I take orders."

Even for new measures.

The atmosphere was not hopeful.

The nobles couldn't be genuinely positive at the thought of the demonic Roman Dmitry coming soon.

The massacre at Kairos.

It was one-sided.

Hundreds of troops secretly summoned were meaningless, and those who stopped Roman Dmitry were brutally killed.

And I heard that those who couldn't board the warp gate didn't even make it to surrender.

When I heard that he had cut off all the heads of those who knelt down and prayed, his mouth was still dry.

said Marquis Benedict.

"The war happened suddenly, but we have been preparing for a war against the royalists for a long time. Benedict was equipped with materials and a perfect defense system for the fortress, and with this level of preparation, even the Kronos Empire, not Roman Dmitry's army, would be able to withstand it. So don't have any doubts that we will win. As always. When everything is sorted out, it will be our aristocrats who take power in Cairo."

Okay.

I will do my best.

The atmosphere was reversed.

Marquis Benedict is right.

Although the fires of war suddenly spread, it does not mean that the aristocrats were not prepared for war.

confidence arose.

Time is on the side of the nobility.

He was convinced that if he took the time and led the situation, he could destroy the royal faction.

They believed in themselves.

As always.

The nobility will remain victorious.

and a week later.

Roman Dmitry's army appeared in Benedict.

* * *

Immediately after arriving in Benedict.

Simon came over and asked.

"Commander. To prepare for a long-term battle, we will build a position first."

Benedict Castle.

The tall walls were called Cheolongseong (鐵甕城).

It was not a fight that would end in a day or two, so Simon's judgment was common sense.

However.

"No, speedy action is important in this war. The more time allowed for the aristocracy, the more options they had. So we will prepare for the first attack before we establish our positions."

It was a bold decision.

in case you do any damage.

The soldiers had to spend time again pulling their heavy bodies and building their positions.

By the way.

"Felix, prepare for the siege now."

Roman's orders.

A robin stepped forward.

As Simon, he looked at Robyn and Roman Dmitry alternately with eyes that he still did not fully understand.
