The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 280 The Truth of Cronus (4)

A power named aura.

It was truly a revolution.

The Salamander Continent was in an uproar at Alexander’s move, and he, who had been pushed out of the succession rankings, took his place as the real power at once.

People called Alexander ‘the father of prosecutors’.

Swordsmen who wore helmets and had strong images of sacrificing themselves on behalf of wizards dreamed of being swordsmen in the revolution that Alexander had caused.

new direction.

A cataclysm occurred.

People started talking about a new future, not just wizards, but aura swordsmen.

Every day.

It was like a dream.

As the first aura swordsman, Alexander spent his days on the rise, and one day the topic of a battle between a wizard and an aura swordsman came to the fore.

As a result. In the real battle that took place, the Aura swordsmen suffered a crushing defeat against the wizards.

The power of the aura was explosive, but it was not sustainable, and there was no way to keep up with the swift movements of the wizards.

No matter how fast you move, after being subjected to magic such as ‘blink’ that moves the space itself, a sense of skepticism as an aura swordsman arose.

then

reality was seen.

At least, the martial arts of the midfield Murim that Alexander remembered were not weak enough to be defeated by magicians.

‘The aura I invented is nothing more than a superficial finished product. Someday, the trivial truth of the aura will be exposed, and the higher you go, the more wizards will rule this world. You are Alexander, not Panseok Kim. In order not to lose forever the wealth and honor that are held in both hands, we must establish a territory that others cannot touch.’

Living under the Ten Thousand Mountains.

The martial arts that had been passed down through rumors reached the realm of the gods.

The overwhelming force that split the ground and collapsed the sky with a single swordsmanship was a realm that could not be reached with the aura he had invented.

But magic is different.

Their power was like a natural disaster, and the more people paid attention, the more Alexander’s desire to lose power grew stronger.

he was poor

Since I had nothing, the desire to not let go of anything I had in my hands was seething like mad.

timely.

The existence that competed with him for the successor seat backed by the power of the mage tower, and Alexander had to choose for the future.

Is it right to continue to pursue ‘Aura’?

What must be done to secure unconditional power not only in the Cronus Empire but also in the Salamander Continent?

Desire became an obsession. It turned into madness, and Alexander looked up at the dark sky and faced a new future.

– If you follow me, I will give you strength.

Devil’s Whispers.

that day.

Alexander threw away his sword.

Everyone remembered him as the creator of Aura, but he didn’t exist as a swordsman when he ascended the throne.

Mystique asked again.

“Give me an order. Roman Dmitri is a being that must be punished.”

his words.

Agreed.

Roman Dmitri interrupted the plans of the Kronos Empire in every way, from the Cairo Rebellion to the Kingdom of Redford and this all-out war.

The problem is the moment the possibility arises that Roman Dmitri might be a ‘dimensional mover’ like himself.

Deep in his heart, a desire he had never known existed.

‘Roman Dmitry. Unlike me, do you know real martial arts?’

always.

I dreamed in my head.

If he had been a person who had properly mastered martial arts, he would not have been able to create a new disturbance as Alexander without borrowing the power of darkness.

Now, that has become impossible.

A long time has already passed and dark mana flowed in his heart, but the longing for martial arts still remained.

I wanted to see for myself.

What kind of martial arts does Roman Dmitry use?

Where was the origin of the martial arts he had mastered, and if it was the martial arts of the so-called high school, such as the old school, Alexander would not be able to stand his greed.

I was thirsty. Murim took its place in his mind like a fantasy animal.

Even if he came to know martial arts now, the situation would not change, but he still wanted to check whether he was right in choosing magic.

bowing his head

He also shouted the blessing of the Second Coming of the Heavenly Demon.

At that time, the existence he looked up to existed as his ideal, as if he had the whole world.

so that.

swallowed the truth

He didn’t want to show the truth to the beings he followed.

said Alexander.

“I agree to punish Roman Dmitri. However, since he defeated Sefir, Roman Dmitri became an existence that could not be dealt with unilaterally. Mystique. Our goal is to conquer the continent and put this world in the hands of Kronos. At that time, as immortal beings, we will be able to enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of our lives. There is no need to rush. I admit that Roman Dmitri’s existence is a threat, but at best there is a limit to the area that Aura Swordsman can handle. Do you think I would be defeated if I dealt with Roman Dmitri myself?”

“… Absolutely not.”

A generation before Mystique.

Shepherd existed.

And in a generation that even Shefir could not touch, Alexander survived like a monster and has existed until now.

Roman Dmitry’s power was overwhelming.

however.

Alexander has already reached the level of God.

Mystique and other shadows did not follow the orders of the Emperor Cronus, but showed their loyalty towards Alexander, who gave orders through the body of the Emperor Cronus.

To the shadows, Alexander was not the harbinger of Aura.

It was the kind of being that would lead to immortality and already prove a new path as a human being.

“Emperor Kronos has already ordered a truce. There is no way to reverse the emperor’s order, so for now, I will proceed with the situation as it flows. But keep in mind. By revealing the ambition of conquering the continent, we declared war on that damn bitch Isabelle. The war will soon begin again. If the war begins as we envision, when we wish. At that time, even if guys like Roman Dmitri Isabel get in the way, it won’t be able to stop the Millennium Plan of the Kronos Empire.”

Thousand Years.

Mystique bowed her head.

Ordinary people did not know the truth.

But like Alexander said.

“I will follow your orders.”

Sooner or later the world will fall into the hands of Kronos.

* * *

Isabel and Roman Dmitry.

Silence lingered for a moment.

Isabel, who had revealed the whole truth, looked at Roman Dmitri and said,

“The reason I revealed the truth to Roman Dmitri was not only because I knew the identity of the ‘shadow’. Roman Dmitri has defeated Shefir. It means that you have done what no one else in the world could do without manifesting divine power. For the sake of humanity, Luna Kingdom needs your strength. Please help me advance to the Kronos Empire and destroy the evil group.”

her words.

It was expected.

The reason why she came to him after opposing Kronos on the other side of the truth didn’t need an explanation.

the problem is.

“I don’t like it.”

“… Are you saying you will forsake humanity?”

“That’s a separate issue. If the Kronos Empire exists as an enemy of Dmitri, I will drive them to ruin until the end. However, there is no such thing as dedication to humanity in that cause. Even if I can draw my sword for the people who follow Dmitri, I’m not a good enough person to speak of sacrifice for people I don’t know.”

“We are fit for purpose. Then there is no reason to refuse, is there?”

Isabelle’s voice rose.

actions in the past.

He believed that Roman Dmitry and his will coincided.

Isabel, who was active in the dark after receiving an oracle, found for the first time in her life a Roman Dmitry who would shoulder her duties.

When he ended the rebellion in Cairo, when he quelled the rebellion in the kingdom of Redford, and even when he fought an all-out war with Cronus and defeated Shephir.

He believed that God had sent down a warrior to help him.

In order to counter Kronos’ growing ambitions, he needed the help of a strong warrior like Roman Dmitri.

however.

The answer that came back was not positive.

Roman Dmitri leaned back on the sofa and spoke in a steady voice.

“Our purpose is not met. You for the world and me for personal purposes. We want to defeat the Kronos Empire. If so, I’ll ask. If the Cronus Empire had been threatening many people with their lives. Can you give up their lives and decapitate Alexander?”

“… that that.”

“That’s the difference. We can’t hold hands from the beginning because we have different thoughts at critical moments. If it were me, I wouldn’t hesitate at all when that moment came. I do not want to negatively affect the relationship between Luna Kingdom and Dmitri with this meeting. Although we may be able to act to benefit each other in the direction we are moving, I will not promise to destroy Kronos together until the end. That’s the only promise I can say to you who have dedicated yourself to Salamander.”

I was speechless.

Roman Dmitry.

It was an incomprehensible existence.

I knew he was arrogant, but I didn’t expect this reaction to come back even after I knew the truth about Cronus.

Isabelle said.

“Alexandre is a monster who denies the life that humans are allowed to live. And it is also a being that has brought in mysterious powers from a world unknown to us. Can you handle him on your own? If you possess more power than we think, your judgment will lead to the destruction of mankind.”

He raised his voice.

her words.

It conformed to common sense.

At least, I believed that his words were persuasive.

Roman Dmitri rose from his seat.

Then he looked down at Isabelle with indifferent eyes.

“It doesn’t matter. No matter how strong that being is, no matter what it was in the world beyond. It’s not that important to me.”

if.

Even if Alexander really lived in the midfield Murim.

Roman Dmitry did not feel threatened in the slightest.

In the middle plain Moorim, Baek Jung-hyeok, the heavenly demon, was the best in the world.

blast furnace.

Alexander’s previous life, no matter how great he was, was just one of the stones rolling under Baek Joong-hyeok’s feet.

A few days ago.

When the confrontation between the Kronos Empire and Dmitri reached its climax, the Kingdom of Odelia proceeded with some kind of plan.

[two days later. Soldiers of the Kronos Empire will head to the capital of the Kingdom of Odelia through the ‘Warp Gate’. keep in mind This operation is a joint operation of the three kingdoms, in which the Cronus Empire, the Kingdom of Odelia, and the Kingdom of Umberto cooperate. The moment the Empire’s soldiers arrive at Odelia and Umberto and get their hands on the kingdom union, we will lay the foundation for conquering the continent. So do your best to help the Empire. The future of the Kronos Empire will soon become the future of Odelia.]

Beyond the screen.

Baron Charlton laughed.

After ending the magic communication, King Odelia’s expression distorted.

“… Now it is irreversible.”

Every day, unbelievable news came from the battlefield.

Hearing that Roman Dmitri had miraculously won, he thought that maybe if Odelia and the Kingdom of Umberto joined Dmitri, there might have been a chance.

However, they have already crossed an irreversible river.

No matter how things went from the moment they made some kind of pact with the Kronos Empire, there was no way to reverse the relationship.

at last.

A decision was needed.

Even though he knew that he was enslaving himself, the pea-sized liver put survival first.

called the subordinate.

Then he gave the order.

“The alliance with Cronus is a matter of life and death for Odelia. As soon as they arrive at the capital, we will use the forces of the Cronus Empire to take control of the Kingdom Alliance. Failure is not allowed. After this war, the history of the continent will prove that our choice was right.”

“All right.”

The knight showed eager eyes.

There was no shame.

For the sake of the national interest, the things that the kingdom union had insisted on could be thrown away at any time.

and two days later

The day of the showdown had dawned.

King Odelia lined up her troops and welcomed the soldiers of the Cronus Empire to come over to the warp gate.

sudden.

chuckle.

beyond the white light.

The Empire’s soldiers rushed in.

At first, King Odelia, who greeted them with a bright face, hardened her expression after confirming their commander.

‘… no way.’

ferocious face.

It was ominous.

The commander of Cronus was looking at the enemy as if he were looking at them.

yet.

Soon after all of the Empire’s forces arrived, the ominous became reality.

“Attack the worms of Odelia Kingdom! The Cronus Empire will capture the kingdom union, starting with Odelia and Umberto!”

Only then did I realize

What mistakes did the Kingdom of Odelia make?

Around the time Dmitri defeated Kronos, King Odelia faced a devastating reality.
