The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life

Chapter 349 A Country Lost in Romance (7)

Schneider is in awe.

Seeing Alvarez lying down with a miserable face, he looked at Ares with disbelief.

“… It’s nonsense.”

Ares in the past.

People called him a genius.

His rapid growth was unparalleled, and he reached the level of 5 stars at an early age, and he was evaluated as the best talent in Valhalla or perhaps the best talent in the Salamander continent by defeating Schneider.

Schneider remembered Ares at that time.

Kneeling against Ares, he fell into deep despair as he faced a talent that even he, a member of the Twelve Swords of the Continent, could not match.

however.

Even then, the speed of development of Ares was accompanied by the expression that it was leaps and bounds.

The sight of Ares manifesting a 6-star aura gave a shock so intense that he could not handle it.

“What the hell happened to Dmitri!”

shouted as if screaming.

if you don’t do that

Couldn’t accept reality.

Valhalla’s rankers laughed at Ares’ choice, but Ares returned with a clear result of a 6-star aura in a short time.

And that wasn’t all.

The swordsmanship that pushed Alvarez was clearly more developed than before.

In the meantime, looking at the case of Roman Dmitri’s people achieving rapid growth, it was clear that Ares had wings on his back by transferring to Dmitri.

Other rankers also showed similar reactions to Schneider.

Count Gomes stopped walking as the shocked crowd alternated between Alvarez’s corpse and Ares.

“… How could this happen?”

that too.

I wanted to deny reality.

The final scene in which Ares cuts Alvarez has an ominous thought.

‘Roman Dmitry. Could it be that he is trying to help the rebels in this way?’

Duke of Vieto.

His rebellion was reckless.

Even the simple difference in power was more than 10 times, and the difference between the top players was overwhelmingly pushed.

so i couldn’t understand

With Roman Dmitri’s help, what on earth would you think of declaring a rebellion in a situation where the justification for war is lost?

The leaders of Valhalla thought they could use this opportunity to wipe out the opposing faction at once, but now they know that’s not the case.

Roman Dmitry sent troops to the northern front.

It had the effect of first dispersing the emperor’s forces, and this time, Ares was sent to deal with Alvarez.

The thirteenth of troops and skill.

It was a strategy that attacked both problems at the same time.

The more he thought about Roman Dmitri’s plans, the more Count Gomes got goosebumps all over.

‘… If I judged with common sense, it is certain that I will be swayed according to his plan. So a decision is needed.’

The eyes turned vicious.

Dmitry’s strategy.

There was one weakness.

It was the belief that Valhalla would keep the tradition of warriors.

“Right now, arrest Ares!”

“… yes?”

“Did you not hear me? Stop looking at me with such a foolish face and arrest Ares, who is guilty of high treason!”

Moment.

The rankers looked at them with puzzled faces.

No matter how rotten Valhalla was, it was a very mean act to arrest the winner of the match.

Ares is not a high treason.

Forsaking the nationality of Valhalla was not enough justification to punish him, and the only crime he had committed was that he had defeated the person of the Emperor of Valhalla.

Everyone hesitated.

However, Count Gomes decided that he had to deal with Ares somehow.

“Damn you bastards. Let me tell you for sure. If there is an existence that does not fulfill the order in this place. I will clearly remember their faces and report them to His Majesty the Emperor of Valhalla to receive appropriate punishment.”

It was an extreme option.

leader of the conservative faction.

He, too, had long since lost his romance.

Faced with the madness of the Emperor of Valhalla, he also compromised with reality.

It was then.

“Like your master said, you are completely rotten.”

as if expected.

Ares gave a cold look.

* * *

Before leaving for Valhalla.

said Roman Dmitry.

“Valhalla has completely lost its warrior pride. Even if you win the match, they may try to kill you instead of recognizing the winner’s right. no it will All you need then is to admit that Valhalla is rotten and expose the ugly truth to the world.”

people once.

The time when Valhalla warriors risked their lives was called the Age of Romance.

Valhalla at that time was great.

In their desire to become stronger, the warriors constantly polished themselves and solved all problems by exchanging swords rather than words.

This is not to say that the current Valhalla is not like that.

The difference between then and now, which was called the era of romance, was the attitude of the warriors who accepted defeat.

No matter how powerful they are.

When he lost, he clearly acknowledged the reality.

To bow one’s head and surrender all one’s power to the victor was not then accused of folly.

It was natural.

winner takes all.

The strong won everything.

The people of Valhalla respected the romance of Valhalla.

Ares too.

born in valhalla

So I had a glimmer of hope that maybe it would be different from Roman Dmitri’s words.

“Count Gomes. I sincerely hoped that Valhalla would accept victory and defeat meekly. At least if it was, there wouldn’t have been anything to expose the ugly bottom. I was born in Valhalla, grew up as a Valhalla warrior, and as Valhalla’s blood still flows, I wanted to protect Valhalla’s honor.”

I was dying.

He signaled by raising his hand.

OK.

People flocked.

Haomun’s spies agitated the people, and they moved at once when they heard the news that a decisive battle was taking place at the Valhalla Temple.

Arriving there, he saw Alvarez’s body. People groaned.

Ares’ victory was a shocking result to them, who did not even know that the match had begun.

“… Ares winning.”

“What if this happens? Is Ares number 2 in the rankings?”

“It’s already number two.”

appearance of people.

Count Gomes’ expression hardened.

He immediately recognized Ares’ intentions.

‘A clever fellow.’

People are watching.

If the victor, Ares, is captured while they are watching, people will naturally become angry.

A situation where public sentiment is already shaken.

Ares created a platform that stimulated public sentiment.

If he tries to harm himself, he will risk his life to achieve his goal, but at the cost of an order whose success is uncertain, the insurgent forces will completely steal the people’s heart.

Count Gomes finds himself in a dilemma.

At first, some rankers who were trying to fulfill his orders were at a loss as they looked at him.

It was funny.

Ares raised his voice as he looked at the people who were lost in romance.

“There was a time when Valhalla did not lose its romance. I want to bring back the Valhalla of that time.”

this order.

Ares fully agreed.

Even though he knew it was dangerous, he risked his life in a situation where his blood was boiling.

people looking at themselves.

Rankers of Valhalla.

and Count Gomes.

Ares shocked them.

“I will challenge Cesar, who is ranked #1, using the authority of #2 in Valhalla.”

* * *

The Valhalla Emperor was capricious.

Sometimes, even if you show interest in state affairs.

At other times he acted as if he had nothing to do with the position of emperor, to the point of seriousness.

like right now

“Do it yourself.”

Ares’ challenge.

It was a huge event.

Even though the aftermath would have been great if Cesar knelt down, the Emperor of Valhalla waved his hands as if he was annoyed with a languid expression.

As a result, Count Gomes met separately with the Marquis of Belfir.

In order to solve the problem we are facing, the two nobles, who can be said to be the two major mountain ranges of Valhalla, had to join forces.

The Marquis of Belfire asked.

“Count Gomes. Who do you think will win, Cesar or Ares?”

“… Great.”

got into trouble

Cesar and Ares.

Cesar was unquestionably the best swordsman in Valhalla.

Even Álvarez was an overwhelmingly powerful player, losing against Cesar every time, but the problem was Ares’ performance.

He defeated Alvarez with only his 5-star aura.

Later, when he revealed that he could use a 6-star aura, he thought maybe Ares was the best in Valhalla.

“I can’t be sure who will win. Common sense suggests that Cesar should win, but Ares has reached a completely different level by following Roman Dmitri. If Marquis Belfir had seen him, he would have known what I meant. The power of Ares, who overpowered and destroyed Alvarez, was a step forward from being called the greatest genius in Valhalla.”

“It is a very interesting situation. Cesar can’t guarantee victory.”

Castro, the greatest swordsman in the continent.

The only one who can stand against him.

Although Cesar’s external activities have been low recently, the two present here did not know what kind of person Cesar was.

Of course, people also expressed Cesar as a second-in-command.

There was an evaluation that he could never surpass Castro, but that did not change the fact that he was the best swordsman in Valhalla.

said the Marquis of Belfir.

“There is no way to stop the power of being number two in the rankings in front of people. Roman Dmitry’s intentions are clear. It was probably intended to weaken the power of the imperial family by dispersing the imperial forces to the north and dealing with Alvarez and Cesar in succession. That’s why we have to believe in the power of the Valhalla royal family even more.”

“Are you saying you’re going to leave it like this?”

“okay.”

The opponent induced the Valhalla Imperial Family.

To not focus on the rebels to react more furiously.

The Marquis of Belfir read the essence.

“Roman Dmitry also faces the danger of the Kronos Empire. Trust Cesar. Trust the troops of the North. Valhalla’s warriors won’t be able to see a match in a short time with the powerful and unstoppable Roman Dmitri. Now is your chance. Send your troops quickly and capture Hernard.”

“All right.”

The order was accepted.

Like the words of the Marquis of Belfir.

I believed that time was on Valhalla’s side.

But then.

Before Count Gomes finished his preparations, the Marquis of Belfir and he received shocking news.

“Roman Dmitry is attacking the northern front!”

that.

It was a bold decision that was much quicker than expected and exceeded expectations.

* * *

North Valhalla.

Roman Dmitri looked there and listened to Chris’ report.

“About 100,000 troops are gathered in the foremost defensive positions in Valhalla. It seems that the Valhalla Empire decided that subjugating Duke Vieto’s rebels would take precedence over the northern front.”

“As expected.”

Enemy within.

enemy outside.

It was a simple matter.

For the Valhalla Empire, it was more important to deal with Duke Vieto, who rebelled with only 200,000 troops, than to prepare for Dmitri, who might attack at any time.

Valhalla’s judgment followed common sense.

It was also a judgment that did not deviate from common sense that Ares approved the confrontation with Cesar because he mobilized people.

‘Cronos and Valhalla are different. It’s a country that’s still swayed by public sentiment, so we can’t ignore people’s eyes.’

If public sentiment leads to riots.

From then on, the problem got serious.

If the people were added to the 200,000 rebels and attacked the Valhalla royal family from inside and outside, then even they could not guarantee that they would be safe.

That’s why they tried their best not to offend the public.

The reason why the rebels raised their voices by pointing out the tradition was because they knew that it was the evil of Valhalla.

set of circumstances.

Roman Dmitry painted the big picture.

‘It’s still a favorable situation for the Valhalla Imperial Family. Even if you secure only a week’s time, they will use the warp gate and occupy Hernard in an instant. In the end, the right to bring down the Emperor of Valhalla rests with the rebels. In order for the rebels, not me, to produce meaningful results, the Valhalla imperial family must not allow any leeway.’

maybe.

The reason for not sending more troops to the north would be based on common sense.

The combined forces of Dmitri and Hector are about 100,000.

There weren’t many.

After confirming the information, the Valhalla Imperial Family decided that there was no need to overdo it.

Usually, siege warfare has a chance of winning only when at least twice as many troops are pushed in from the attacking camp.

The Valhalla Empire had considerable magic defense and deployed 100,000 troops, so it was confident that it would secure a week’s time to wipe out the rebels without any problems.

That is.

It was the peak of the painting that Roman Dmitri thought.

Dmitry was always prepared for war, and during his time of peace he invested heavily in magical developments related to upper-tier warfare.

“Felix.”

“yes.”

“How long will it take to break down the walls of Valhalla?”

It was a stupid question.

Let alone how much time, it was first to ask common sense whether it was successful or not.

however.

Felix said in a firm tone.

“An hour is enough.”

The moment Ares visited Cesar.

like that.

Roman Dmitry’s troops crossed the northern border.
