The Heavenly Demon Can't Live a Normal Life Chapter 264

First Continental War (2)

The light went out on the foot.

At the urgent call of the Duke of Bampford, all the wizards of Behemoth who were waiting at the outpost were summoned.

The expressions on their faces gathered at the first defensive position were not good.

To them, the information that 'Roman Dmitry's Poison' was a very serious matter that once shook the foundations of the Behemoth Tower.

said Matteo.

"Currently, poisoning has occurred in all eight fortifications east of Kronos, including the first fortification. As you know, the poison Roman Dmitry uses is not easy to detoxify even with a Cure Poison, so if the problem is not resolved quickly, the damage is likely to develop rapidly."

"Once again, Roman Dmitry, you damn bastard."

It was the master of Behemoth.

The skin that had turned dark due to frequent experiments and the long torn eyes on both sides gave him a very nervous impression.

In fact, he was very angry.

While detoxifying Roman Dmitry's poison, which was commissioned by Baron Charlton, people asked what it meant to exist if Behemoth couldn't even detoxify it.

It was a huge humiliation.

As a force with poison as its strength, they could not accept the fact that there was an unreachable area.

said Master Behemoth Matap.

"Dedicate your life to this mission. It is not allowed to say that it is impossible."

Okay.

"Then let's start detoxing now."

Thirty-two wizards in total, including the mage.

They were the full force of Behemoth.

As soon as they heard that Roman Dmitry had used poison, they mobilized all the wizards, and they started detoxifying it in the laboratory the Duke of Bamford had built.

It was a truly bizarre scene.

In front of the thirty-two wizards, a poisoned soldier and an already dead corpse lay one by one for testing.

"Cure Poison."

evil.

Master Behemoth has raised mana.

Mana was injected into each living soldier and corpse, and the source of the poison was found with skillful control.

'It is an unfamiliar poison that completely denies the existing system from one to ten. It is usually said that it takes a few months to a long time to develop a new poison, but how does Roman Dmitry have such a poison? At such a young age, in order to reach the level of 6 stars, I would have to devote all my time to swordsmanship training, so I guess I could afford to develop poison.'

annoyed

Whether it was developed by Roman Dmitry himself or had a technician.

It was unacceptable for Behemoth.

Undisclosed beings could not accept that Behemoth had technical skills that were difficult to reach.

dedicated to detoxification.

I used the knowledge in my head to analyze the components of the poison, and I used the energy of Cure Poison to find out how to approach the poison to decompose.

The process was slow, but gradual.

During Behemoth's horse tower cycle, which is called the apex of poison on the continent, the knowledge of the past gradually broke down new realms.

By the way.

His face, which was dealing with both auras at the same time, suddenly cracked.

"Hey, what is this?"

It was frustrating.

At first, I thought the information coming into my head was wrong, but as I deciphered it, I realized that it wasn't wrong.

It was totally unacceptable information.

Even though Behemoth's behemoth had confirmed the truth several times, the accumulating information only gave him stronger confidence.

'There is not one poison. at least two. Living soldiers and corpses are poisoned with different poisons.'

I got goosebumps.

The reason why the situation I'm experiencing right now is embarrassing was that both poisons were completely different from the common sense I knew.

it didn't make sense

How can one or two develop a new one? Roman Dmitry, like a spring that never dries up, continuously introduced a poison of a first-ever kind.

Moment.

An ominous aura arose.

At the thought that spread through his mind, Behemoth Matapju stopped deciphering and hurriedly moved to the side.

"Get out of the way!"

"Hey, my lord!"

The wizard of Behemoth showed a look of perplexity.

Matapju quickly discovered the difference between the poisons, but he hadn't yet discovered that there were multiple poisons.

evil.

raised mana.

The master of Behemoth, who had been hanging on for such a long time, fell to his seat with a face stained with shock.

" Don't, that's ridiculous!"

"What the hell are you doing?"

Matteo came running after a month.

The wizards of Behemoth also flocked to the surrounding area after completing the detoxification work due to the sudden action of the master of the behemoth.

looking at them

The Master Behemoth shouted in a trembling voice.

"All types of poison are different. Roman Dmitry, this crazy bastard didn't use one or two poisons we don't know about!

A voice that erupts like a scream.

That's it.

Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the wizards showed a pale complexion.

* * *

After hanging on to detox for a long time.

Master Behemoth Matap proclaimed to the superior.

"32 types of poison were found in eight defensive positions. Roman Dmitry cleverly used various types of poison to prevent detoxification, but the problem is that all 32 types of poison are new types of poison unknown to the Salamander Continent. I didn't know the day would come when I would say these things out of my mouth, but I can assure you that Roman Dmitry is unmatched in the realm of 'poison'. If given enough time, they will succeed in detoxifying them one by one, but there is no way in the world to solve all 32 types of poisons in the immediate vicinity of a war."

Undecipherable.

It was his judgment.

Seeing him speak with a desperate expression on his face, Duke Bamford's expression hardened.

'How can the proud master of Behemoth admit defeat? Even if you try to detoxify, it is a problem that cannot be solved.'

judged quickly.

Roman Dmitry.

He was an over-the-top guy.

He attacked Rascal, annihilating ten thousand troops, and secretly sprayed poison, driving tens of thousands of troops into his limbs.

Moreover, the means of 'poison' were of a kind not generally available.

Although war is an act against humanity, the use of poison that kills many is strictly prohibited under the Continental Law.

so that.

Anger simmered.

I was mad with anger, but now was the time to solve the problem in front of me.

The Duke of Bamford called and ordered his lieutenant.

"Isolating all poisoned soldiers, cremating their bodies, and shutting down every problem. And from now on, the soldiers of the Empire will strictly forbid the use of all things such as drinking water in the defensive positions, and even if it is cumbersome, drinking water must be sourced from a far-flowing river. Also. The soldiers may be confused about this, so call in the centurions and convince them that things are going well so they don't get agitated. The truth may be different. Even if people die before their eyes, it is very important to say that there is no problem."

"I will deal with your orders."

okay.

turned his gaze.

It was a quick and clear decision.

The commander's hesitation on the battlefield, experience has shown how much chaos can turn into even a second of time while an order is being delivered.

So being cautious every time was not the way to solve the problem.

Even if it was daring, it was definitely necessary to throw away things that had to be given up.

poison expert.

It was the judgment of Behemoth Matthew.

Since the Duke of Bamford was not an expert in all fields, he listened to the judgment of experts such as Behemoth Matapju.

That was the commander's job.

After experiencing numerous wars, the reason Duke Bamford survived to the end and reached the present position was not his own ability.

The judgment was right.

About 100,000 soldiers died from the poison.

Visit readel.me for extra chapters.

The defensive positions cannot accommodate all of the tens of thousands of troops.

Some of them set up camps outside to procure drinking water from a nearby river, so it was possible to prevent the spread of poison throughout the troops.

And.

As the wizards of Behemoth quickly quarantined and used purification magic, it was possible to prevent transmission through contagion to a minimum.

It was not that their role was completely useless.

Accurate response based on past experience solved the situation where hundreds of thousands of people could have died to this extent.

clear up the situation.

The Duke of Bamford, who finished the report to the superior, said with a contorted face like a demon.

"Call Dmitry right now and arrange a meeting. I'll have to ask them. Continental law strictly forbids the use of poison on the battlefield, but how would you explain this? If their explanation is not satisfactory, we will hold them accountable."

* * *

Kronos' response.

It was as expected.

Said the commander of the West, the Marquis of Vandenberg.

"Kronos asked to speak. It's a really fun situation. Those who have committed atrocities to such a degree that the meaning of the existence of the Continental Law is overshadowed, will they take responsibility for their own problems through dialogue?"

"You didn't expect it. That is the Kronos Empire."

It was the head of the staff, Baron Noel.

dock.

It was a very difficult problem.

Wars are usually aimed at winning by any means possible, but allowing the use of poisons that can cause mass destruction can have disastrous results.

Therefore, the use of poison is prohibited under the Continental Law.

If there are no sanctions against such matters, whenever a war breaks out, the indiscriminate use of poison will result in the massacre of civilians as well as soldiers.

It was a minimal line.

But, Dmitry passed it.

Flora Lawrence said.

"We knew from the beginning that the use of poison would be a problem. Maybe this will trigger a third country like Valhalla to join the war, but we don't have any other options anyway. From now on, the important issue is the situation in front of you. Whatever Kronos says, we need time."

Western Front.

Roman Dmitry was not here.

He left to carry out his plans, and the remaining forces in the West had to buy time against the Kronos Empire.

So I used poison.

Roman Dmitry's departure is a huge loss of power, and in fact, even if he is there, the odds of winning this war are slim if they are confronted head-on.

so that.

Gambling was needed.

In order to bring down the dragon, he could not fight in the same way as them.

A surprise attack on Rascal.

By capturing the outpost, they subdued the ship, and while Roman Dmitry focused their attention, Chris and other troops infiltrated eight defensive positions.

It was a two-action war.

Thanks to the Kronos Empire's enthusiasm for Roman Dmitry's pursuit, penetration and poisoning were not difficult to succeed.

And now.

Another problem was faced.

Flora Lawrence continued her speech.

"The response of the Kronos Empire is faster than we expected. The problem was resolved in just a few days, and it is clear that they will deliberately request a conversation and use poison as an excuse to prevent the Kingdom Confederacy from participating in the war. That's why we have to accept their conversation even more. At least while the conversation is taking place, we can buy a little bit of time."

There was no reason to worry.

devising a plan

He prepared options according to the enemy's response, and this was one of them.

said the Marquis of Vandenberg.

"Then in a few days. We will continue the conversation with them."

* * *

a few days later.

The conversation took place at the border.

The Duke of Bamford appeared alone without an escort.

No one thought he was reckless.

When conducting dialogue between countries during a war, the life of the representative must be guaranteed.

It was a completely different matter from the use of poison.

The prohibition of poisons that could cause reckless slaughter was a safety net to prevent the worst, while guaranteeing the lives of representatives was a matter of national security itself.

If the war is going the other way or a ceasefire is desired, at least the representatives need to be assured that they are safe.

so that.

The Duke of Bamford appeared alone.

With a strong physique to the point of being disrespectful of his age, his dignified attitude gave off a strong momentum that overwhelms the troops of the Western Front.

Kronos' old-fashioned veteran was not an illusion.

He rose to his present position after experiencing prenatal care, and did not see any disturbance in the many eyes that looked at him from afar.

That was then.

A person was walking from the other side as well.

He walked slowly, as if enjoying his gaze, and asked for a handshake when he faced the Duke of Bamford.

nice to meet you. My name is Count Fabius."

A face with a humorous smile.

that also.

The tension of war was nowhere to be found.
