Chapter 359 Chicken Game (7)


    It was voicemunication.


    On behalf of the Emperor of Valha, the Marquis of Belfir took up the magicmunicator.


    “Roman Dmitry. You are indeed about to see the end with Valha. How dare you incite people to revolt by intervening in the civil war in Valha? Do you think Dmitri will be all right?”


    It was a ferocious voice.


    The Marquis of Belfir pressed his opponent and expressed his anger at the current situation.


    [I think the rtionship between Valha and Dmitri has already been established through thest magicmunication. Whether I step back doing nothing or do something more than I am now. Was there any room for change in our rtionship?]


    “Yes. Like you said, Valha and Dmitri crossed an irreversible river. by the way. Malice is what determines how much we are willing to sacrifice for revenge. Your actions now are fueling our malice. Terrorizing dozens of territories, inciting the people of Valha to revolt, and setting fire to the northern granaries. It means that we will not cover any means and methods for revenge due to your actions that are determined to shake the foundation of Valha.”


    nce.


    I looked at the Emperor of Valha.


    He clearly seemed to be having fun with what was going on.


    Seeing that he didn’t care much about the safety of Valha, the Marquis of Belfir was faithful to the role assigned to him.


    “I don’t say anything. There is no room for things to turn around because of what you’re doing. Do you think we don’t know your intentions? It must be somehow trying to give the rebels a chance to catch their breath and destroy the Valha Empire under their leadership. It’s funny, Roman Dmitry. Hernard’s rebel army is already on the verge of falling. after today’s day. No, the rebels will bepletely annihted before the sun goes down.”


    Rebellion.


    It was already a problem.


    Count Gomes reported that he would defeat Hernard within the day, and in fact, there was no room for Hernard to hold out even if he looked at the objective power alone.


    If so, Dmitri’s n was no different than a failure.


    No matter how rampant Dmitri was, it lost its meaning the moment the most important element, the rebels, was excluded.


    I was full of confidence.


    The Marquis of Belfir forcibly spat out a warning to retreat.


    however.


    [So?]


    He smiled.


    It was a known fact that the rebels could not hold out since the Emperor of Valha sent a million troops to Hernard.


    [I knew from the beginning that it would be impossible to destroy the Valha Empire with only 200,000 rebels unless you were the type that was optimistic about the situation. Duke Vieto made a decision nheless. It was an attempt to rebel for the future of Valha, and unfortunately, he will pay the price as the rebellion fails.]


    The nuance was strange.


    As Marquis Belfir expected, Roman Dmitri shouldn’t have reacted like this.


    [So we decided topletely abandon the Rebel Army.]


    * * *


    Moment.


    The Marquis Belfire’s face was stained with embarrassment.


    What the hell does this mean?


    It would mean nothing if the rebels were excluded, but Roman Dmitry said without hesitation that he would abandon the rebels.


    [The reason we joined the Rebellion is because it gnaws at Valha from within. What do you think that means? From the beginning, the rebels hoped for the power to destroy the Valha royal family, and it means that our priority was to use the rebels to damage Valha in any direction. Rather than a rtionship based on great loyalty and trust, we held hands because of a rtionship of full interest.]


    No more.


    There was nothing to shy away from.


    Even if the Valha royal family seized on this magicmunication and stretched out, it would not be able to calm the anger of the people due to the massacre already carried out by the Valha emperor.


    If so, it was a very simple matter.


    Valha found the essence of the game of chicken in the rebels, but Roman Dmitri thought in a different direction from them.


    [Now that Hernard is copsing. Why should we cling to the rebels?]


    “… what is that?”


    It was a change of thinking.


    abandoned Hernard.


    abandoned the rebels.


    The next best thing was to move only for Dmitri’s benefit, not to attract attention for them.


    [The things I do are not to save the rebels. From now on, I will use the board the rebels made to gnaw Valha’s power as much as possible. If you and the rebels kill each other, whoever dies will benefit Dmitri. If you set fire to the granary. With the aftermath of the rebellion, you’ll be out of luck for a few years. that’s what i want As long as the best n to destroy the royal family of Valha has failed, thoroughly trampling on Valha so that it doesn’t happen.]


    It was an interesting situation.


    Valha fell into the illusion that Dmitri would not give up the rebels until the end, and showed a foolish attitude of not recalling troops even when the north was in disarray.


    From the beginning, this fight was an unconditional advantage for Dmitri.


    Whatever the oue, Roman Dmitri epted Sanchez’s offer, judging that he would benefit.


    Chicken game.


    hit in a different way.


    The face of the Marquis of Belfir began to harden at the choice of abandoning the rebels and devastating the north.


    [The Marquis of Belfir. i said If you think that the problem will be solved with such an easy thought. You will meet me eventually.]


    Heughed.


    From start to finish, Roman Dmitry fooled his opponent.


    [You’d better keep that word in mind.]


    End with that.


    Took.


    Communication was lost.


    * * *


    A set of circumstances.


    The meeting room fell into silence.


    As Roman Dmitry intended, they couldn’t say anything hastily.


    ‘… We have fallen into a trap.’


    It was truly a quandary.


    Since the conflict with the people was already intensifying, it was impossible to calm the situation through dialogue with Roman Dmitri, and even if the troops were recalled, the situation that had already suffered enormous damage would not be resolved.


    the problem is.


    that it is still an ongoing process.


    Hernard’s rebels are holding out to the end, and Roman Dmitry’s terror is spreading the mes of rebellion throughout the country.


    And Dmitri’s army was ravaging the north.


    It was stifling.


    The Marquis of Belfir looked at the Emperor of Valha with a tense face at the problems that had to be resolved from now on.


    “… Your Majesty the Emperor. Looks like I’ll have to call back my troops. Hernard’s few remaining remnants are of no importance now. The situation could only get worse if we do not quickly quell the mes of rebellion spreading across Valha and subdue Dmitri’s forces. Please give me an order.”


    “Give me an order.”


    “Give me an order.”


    The leaders of Valha.


    they raised their voices


    They also sympathized with the problem.


    I thought that if I continued like this, it might be really serious, so I tried to recall part of the millionth army.


    however.


    The Valha Emperor rather smiled.


    “Keuk-kuk-kuk, that’s for sure. Roman Dmitri is the type of person I have never experienced in my life. Showing ferocious teeth that he would not back down until the end in a situation where ordinary people would have fallen to their knees dozens of times. Marquis of Belfire.”


    “yes.”


    “We do not retreat.”


    “but… !”


    “In addition to the troops sent to Hernard, Valha has sufficient forces left. The loss that Valha will have to bear with this incident is not important. All I want is to not back down one step from the war against Roman Dmitri. Recruit troops and send them to the north. The troops sent to Hernard after rectifying the situation in the granary will be summoned after the rebels arepletely cleared.”


    that too.


    It was great persistence.


    Roman Dmitry’s actions provoked the Emperor of Valha.


    By destroying the warp gate, the Emperor of Valha blocked the escape route so that he could not retreat from the game of chicken, but Roman Dmitry also made a strong effort to abandon the rebels.


    How interesting is this?


    In a dramatic change in his boring life, the Emperor of Valha insisted on his personal selfish greed.


    The Marquis of Belfir gritted his teeth.


    I wanted to tell you the truth.


    I wanted to shout to take care of Valha, but Valha was a country where everything was done ording to the emperor’s will.


    “… I will follow orders.”


    He bowed his head.


    I swallowed disgust.


    suddenly.


    Roman Dmitry’s remarks came to mind.


    What does it mean to keep in mind that you will meet yourself?


    It was then.


    jump.


    “Your Majesty! We have a problem!”


    The ominousness grew.


    An imperial knight entered the meeting room and made a statement that shocked everyone.


    “I just got a report from Marine’s guard that Roman Dmitri is visiting!”


    * * *


    Marine’s Guard.


    They questioned reality.


    The presence that visited the capital of Valha was an existence that the current Valha imperial family had to deal with.


    “I am Roman Dmitri of the Dmitri Kingdom.”


    revealed his identity.


    The guards looked at each other.


    I couldn’t understand how Roman Dmitry, who was apparently said to be in the North, had appeared in Marin.


    Besides, visiting Marin was tantamount tomitting suicide. There was an uproar on the wall.


    In case you didn’t know about the attack, they finished solid defense, but they opened the gate first to their absurdity.


    ‘Let Roman Dmitri inside.’


    It was an order from above.


    Whatever Roman Dmitry’s intentions, this great opportunity could not be missed.


    Sigh.


    thud.


    The gates have copsed.


    Marine’s Guard.


    And the Royal Knights surrounded the surroundings in an instant and were wary of Roman Dmitri. Certainly there was no one else besides him.


    The sight of Roman Dmitri entering the hall made a sudden sense of tension rise, and as time passed, the retreat waspletely blocked by soldiers flocking from the direction of the imperial family.


    thud.


    The gates were closed again.


    It was a rat in a poison.


    After grasping the situation, the captain of the guard cautiously asked with his sword pointed.


    “Roman Dmitry. Why did Marin visit?”


    gulp.


    I heard someone swallowing saliva.


    that much.


    It was a tense situation.


    The notoriety that Roman Dmitri showed on the battlefield was great, and if he had a bad heart, he would have to take enormous damage to subdue Roman Dmitri.


    However, I did not think that the worst would be met by a single person.


    This is the capital of Valha. In Valha, which is called the country of warriors, it was realistically impossible for even Roman Dmitri to survive.


    so more


    I was cautious.


    I was sure Roman Dmitry, who was as cunning as his armed forces, must have another purpose.


    said Roman Dmitry.


    “The defense of Valha is thorough. Marin’s castle walls are so high and hard that they are called iron fortresses, and there is no way to enter the interior with magical powers except for the warp gate due to the magic circle that interferes with magic. Then, in order to enter Marin, there are two ways to choose. The first is to break down the Cheolongseong Fortress and enter inside. And the second… … .”


    smiled wryly


    this operation.


    The reason Chris objected was this.


    In a n so risky, Chris said that even Roman Dmitri was dangerous this time.


    “For Valha to open its own gates.”


    Moment.


    The situation turned grim.


    The captain of the guard screamed at the meaning of the message.


    “Attack!”


    It was then.


    Roman Dmitry took a step back.


    He took something out of his pocket and tore it openly.


    Cheek-


    “ckout dark cloud.”


    A ckout that temporarily weakens magical powers.


    A dark cloud that temporarily dyes the surroundings with darkness.


    Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.


    the sound is buried


    The figures of the Valha soldiers were buried in the darkness as they rushed into the rising dark energy.


    Roman Dmitry also.


    It’s a risky n, I agree.


    but.


    By giving up the rebels, Roman Dmitri intended to do enough damage that Valha would not be able to rise for a while.


    “If you want, I will tell you my purpose. What I want is… .”


    disappeared in the dark.


    In the field of vision of themander of the guard, Roman Dmitri’s figure was nowhere to be found, only his voice pierced his ears.


    “It is to give you despair.”


    Fire –


    deep darkness.


    Marin was dyed in darkness.


    From now on.


    It was time to show off the appearance of the ghost.
