Chapter 416 Winner Takes It All (2)


    The remark just now.


    Count Snowdin doubted his ears.


    He looked at Roman Dmitri and said in a trembling voice.


    “… It’s a former criminal country. Valha officially signed an armistice, and didn’t misunderstandings be resolved in the process? I took a difficult step to discuss the future of the continent, and if you say that, I can’t help but be embarrassed.”


    I swallowed dry saliva.


    Something went terribly wrong.


    Roman Dmitri’s mention of a sensitive issue, and the expressions of other people who are not taken aback by the current situation.


    But I could never react in anger.


    He knew instinctively that he could return alive in this ce only if he did not ept anything that could be regarded as a problem as a problem.


    and.


    At Roman Dmitri’s remarks that followed, Count Snowdin’s heart sank.


    “Count Snowdin. The starting point of this war was the Valha Empire. Since Valha attacked me to cover up the ugly truth, the mes of war spread across the continent. But how can you say that Valha is not responsible? In order to discuss the future of the continent, this issue must be resolved once and for all.”


    It was chilly.


    Unlike the other representatives, the feeling of uneasiness became more prevalent in the attitude where there was no manners.


    The trap was certain.


    The reason why Valha was brought into this ce was to put Valha on the judgment table in the first ce.


    It was then.


    When Roman Dmitri looked at him, Lucas took a step forward.


    “From now on, I will tell you what the Dmitry Information Guild has investigated. The conflict between Dmitry and Valha begins in the southern tomb. In order to confirm the truth of the data that Kronos was directly involved in the history of Valha, we investigated his activities so far, and as a result, we confirmed that the Duke of Vieto was present when Stern Valha ascended to the throne. The data secretly recorded by the captain of the guard contained a truth different from that imed by the Duke of Vieto. If so, we have no choice but to question this situation. If the Duke of Vieto had anything to do with Stern Valha, what did they hope to achieve through civil war?”


    Soldiers handed out materials.


    In addition to the secret journal of the captain of the guard, the Duke of Vieto’s whereabouts were revealed in various ces.


    “Since this is a sensitive issue, we will exclude spective remarks from this announcement. What is certain is that on the day of Stern Valha’s bloody purge, the Duke of Vieto was the one who took the lead. The truth of the civil war between Stern Valha and the Duke of Vieto was actually just a show by people who had the same purpose from the beginning. And Count Snowdin, who is here, is a person who discussed a lot with the Duke of Vieto. From the time when the bloody purge took ce a long time ago.”


    Lucas looked at Count Snowdin.


    He concluded the report with a calm voice in his eyes shaking with anxiety.


    “That is all.”


    * * *


    It was an extrovert.


    Valha’s truth.


    If Duke Vieto was the one who led the bloody purge, Count Snowdin couldn’t escape the responsibility either.


    excuses for not knowing?


    It made no sense.


    The decision maker is the one responsible for the oue, and above all, this issue was the treatment of war criminals.


    If Valha waged a continental war to bury their ugly truth, I couldn’t refute what Roman Dmitri first mentioned.


    I felt like I was bleeding.


    Roman Dmitri said in a situation where he couldn’t figure out how to react.


    “Alexander was unforgivable. He drew the power of ck magic for his personal desire, and as a result, the continent fell into chaos. Count Snowdin. How do you think the people rted to Alexander should be treated in order for the continent to move in the right direction in the future?”


    “… I’m sorry I only attended the Duke of Vieto, but I don’t know what he nned.”


    took a step back


    Even knowing that it doesn’t make any sense.


    I had no choice but to assert my irrelevance.


    In order to somehow save his life, he had to insist that he had no intentions in this situation.


    Roman Dmitryughed.


    “That’s not the right answer. Duke of Stern Valha and Vieto. They had the same purpose from the beginning, and Alexander was at the center of it. The civil war in Valha was thoroughly calcted. They only pretended to threaten each other, but when they were cornered, they didn’t stop breathing. In fact, looking back now, it was a very unusual situation. The fact that Duke Vieto’s rebel army was able to hold out without copsing was able to destroy the capital of Valha with only that amount of troops and deal with Stern Valha. In the course of the series, you and the Duke of Vieto made all the decisions together. Then there are two truths you can assert. One knew the truth, or the other was ipetent and stupid enough to know nothing even though he was at the center of the truth. And whatever is true… … .”


    My heart raced.


    Facing Roman Dmitri’s gaze, Count Snowdin felt as if his life force was burning away.


    “There is no reason to keep you alive.”


    I closed my eyes tightly.


    atst.


    It was as expected.


    For Count Snowdin, who took power after the death of Duke Vieto, there was no way to avoid this situation from the beginning.


    The ugly truth of Valha could not be denied.


    If that happened, the materials of the tomb would have to be disclosed, but at that time it was clear that they would be dragged to the scaffold even more horribly.


    My mind went nk.


    How the hell did this happen?


    Obviously, even when heading to Cronus, he talked about the distant future while cooperating with the leaders of Valha.


    Even if it is really humiliating now, I firmly believed that the decision to throw away my pride was for the future.


    however.


    The results were disastrous.


    The thought that it was all nned from the start gave Count Snowdin goosebumps.


    ‘It was intentional from the beginning of the truce negotiations. Roman Dmitri didn’t want to give me a chance, but he must have proposed a truce to exclude Valha from the process of dealing with the Kronos Empire. Even though he had already secured the data to put us in a corner from then on, hepletely yed with us. If I had noticed Roman Dmitri’s intentions at that time, I would have fought to the end like Cronus, but I don’t have the strength to fight right now.’


    finished.


    However, I couldn’t ept the reality.


    If I showed an acknowledgment, it would be like digging my own grave.


    the only way.


    I had no choice but to appeal to public opinion.


    Count Snowdin raised his voice while changing his expression because there were other representatives watching him.


    “This is an unfair treatment. Dmitri is not qualified to judge Valha. The same goes for other delegates. If you support Dmitri in this way, the arrow may be pointed at youter. I deny all of Dmitri’s allegations and will set up a meeting to rify them as soon as possible.”


    woke up


    I tried to avoid the seat once.


    That moment.


    snap.


    baek!


    head hit the table.


    I opened my eyes wide with a puzzled face, but no matter how hard I struggled, I couldn’t shake off the hand pressing down on my head.


    It was Kevin.


    Kevin whispered into Count Snodine’s ear as he pressed his face down.


    “Get there. If you don’t want your tongue cut.”


    Only then did I know


    A cold gaze focused on oneself.


    The fact that his judgment was already pre-arranged.


    * * *


    Things have been sorted out.


    Count Snowdin was dragged away by the soldiers, and it was decided that the execution ceremony would be carried out en masse afterwards.


    now.


    It was time to discuss the future in earnest.


    said Roman Dmitry.


    “First of all, we n to conduct a massive purge of those involved in the Continental War, including Count Snowdin. There are no exceptions. Even if not directly involved, those who actively participated will be held ountable, and this opportunity will surely eradicate the remnants of Alexander.”


    “What are you going to do after that? Someone has to rece the seat that has be vacant.”


    It was King Redford.


    I exined the n prepared in advance to the expected questions.


    “The purpose of this war is not to destroy and merge the two empires. Valha and Kronos have maintained their own identities for a long time, and in the aftermath of the war, each country has determined that it is necessary to maintain its original system in order to regain stability. Of course, that doesn’t mean it’s the same as before. Valha and Kronos will still exist as one nation, but they will not be able to wield the same power as before, being controlled by the Kingdom Alliance. Therefore, the vacancy will be reced by others.”


    already.


    Picked up a few characters.


    Profiles of the most influential figures among them werepiled and shown to the representatives of each country.


    “As a result of discussions with the two imperial factions that helped in this war, they wanted to present the figures listed in the data. The Valha Empire is Baron Eyren. When Valha dered continental war, he rallied the rest of the forces and fought against Count Snowdin. Although the title is only a baron, he already has considerable support within Valha. The Kronos Empire was created by Jowelson Kreut. The Croyt family has been a prestigious family in Cronus for generations, and the people of the Croyt family have made a great contribution in this war. Both figures will be fully recognized for their legitimacy in their own countries.”


    “This is the best option for now.”


    “The worrying part is that an empire is an empire after all. Do you think you can control them after you regain your powerster?”


    Some positivements.


    Some expressed negativements.


    In response to King Umberto’s question, Roman Dmitri said.


    “That is the purpose of the Kingdom Union. The Kingdom Alliance will take on the role of monitoring the entire continent, not just for the private interests of the nations present at this event. Dmitri is no different. If someone tries to repeat the mistakes of the past, then the power of the kingdom union will strongly stop them. I’ll ask you guys. Cronus goes to Valha. Do you think they can achieve something even if they do things that worry them in the future?”


    It was great confidence.


    and.


    I had no choice but to admit it.


    Even when Alexander’s n reached its climax, the continent’s two major mountain ranges faced a disastrous defeat.


    However, no matter how much time goes by, can he ovee the wall of Roman Dmitri, which will be stronger? Simply put, it was impossible.


    Victory in this war in the first ce was possible for Roman Dmitry.


    In the world he will create in the future, no one will be able to overlook Dmitri’s existence.


    people in this ce.


    they knew the truth


    The fact that if Roman Dmitri shows a coercive attitude like Kronos, no one can stop it.


    Nevertheless, Roman Dmitry spokemon sense.


    Everyone proposed a way to live by forming their own fence, and everyone was not aware that it was not easy for the strong to give up their rights.


    It was then.


    “There is something I want to tell you.”


    Edwin Hector.


    After remaining silent throughout the meeting, he spoke for the first time.


    * * *


    said Edwin Hector.


    “I agree with the direction Roman Dmitri is talking about. If you try to forcibly merge Kronos and Valha, which have more than half the poption of the continent, the cultural differences that arise in the process will inevitably cause problems. In the end, acknowledging each other’s domain is the way to solve the fundamental problem. But before that, there are issues that need to be resolved.”


    The world was changing.


    In this raging current, Edwin Hector knew what to prioritize.


    “Cronus and Valha, which led the continent, have copsed. In order to keep thew that everyone thinks is right in the new world to live in, we need someone who can control the continent. In fact, this war was very abnormal. The Kingdom Alliance was pushed out of power, but Roman Dmitri led the war to victory with a single presence. From then on, I think the rtionship between the top and the bottom has already been decided. And regarding this, the heads of the Kingdom Union held a separate meeting a few days ago.”


    The voice grew louder and louder.


    What I am saying now.


    It was the decision of the kingdom union.


    No one forced them, but they came to a conclusion themselves.


    Edwin Hector lowered his head and shouted.


    “My lord. Be the emperor of a new empire and rule over us.”


    at the same time.


    The heads of the other kingdoms simultaneously bowed their heads.


    “Be the emperor of a new empire and rule over us.”


    “Be the emperor of a new empire and rule over us.”


    It made sense.


    kingdom union.


    They epted Roman Dmitry as the leader of the new world.
