Episode 141. New phase (3)
Kriesha was a person who would move as a representative of the Balaur with Yuma through the dimensional door.
Also, as representatives of the empire, Hela and Ceril were scheduled to cross the dimensional gate together. It was, so to speak, the first summit meeting between East and West countries.
“Kriesha-sama, how long did you say the gates will remain open?”
“It’s two days. Why are you asking all of a sudden?”
“It’s because I have something to talk about with Lord Lord before I go to the east. It’s an assumption, but I think it needs to be discussed.”
“As long as it’s not something to talk about for two days, there’s no problem. I will tell the other dragons to wait a while.”
“thank you. And Kriesha-nim will also share the word with you.”
Mahatrisha was sitting quietly in a room on one side of the imperial castle.
At first glance, it looked like he was resting with his eyes closed, but in reality he was concentrating on activating a kind of protective shield throughout the empire.
Yuma and Kriesha Natalie enter Lord’s room, followed by Hella and Cheryl Duran a moment later.
“Are you here, child? It looks like you have something to say.”
“Yes Lord.”
As soon as they sat down in a circle, Yuma recounted the conversation she had just had with Natalie.
The assumption that Resol may have a substitute for the world.
It was a story without any grounds other than a heart attack, but those gathered did not take Yuma’s story lightly.
In particular, Mahatrisha frowned and looked worried, because it was an area she had never thought of.
“It’s a story that a child outside the realm of Resol might have found… an actual ‘outside world’ that wasn’t outside in meaning.”
“Do you see any potential, Lord?”
When Yuma asked, Mahatrisha blinked her eyes several times.
Those who did not know much about transcendental phenomena and things outside of the human world waited for Mahatrisha’s answer while observing the atmosphere.
“Hey.”
“Yes Lord.”
“The day you first met me, you asked me this question… Do dragons have any questions about ‘where we came from and how we started’? I wonder if other races other than humans have such curiosity.”
“I remember. At that time, Lord replied to me that non-human races only enjoy ‘existence’ itself and do not have such questions.”
Who made the world and where did life begin?
This problem has never been proven in human history. An area where even Yuma, who has met so many gods or divine beings, does not know the answer.
Yuma had heard several times a story similar to Mahat Risha’s answer to this question.
Igmeseus, the king of spirits, also thought that only humans would argue about such things, and other tribes had a similar atmosphere.
“I guess I should start thinking about that question too. It is a story that another world can exist other than the original continent where the tree of God was intact.”
The concept of dimension was created when the Tree of God was damaged. Until then, all races lived in one world.
Sheltion spreads magic, and a human using that magic steals the God Tree and history is erased. Up to this point, Yuma had also heard from Mahatrisha.
“I also think that maybe the races other than humans were created ‘not to have such questions’ in the first place. It’s a problem that can be assumed so easily if you only look at Rizol’s current progress…
Mahatrisha said with a bitter smile.
“Then, Lord… are you saying that the hypothesis my student just talked about might be possible?”
“Yes, Duran Jacques. Looking at the causal relationship, it seems very likely. By substituting the assumptions, the question of the dimension transplant of the three Khmeira and the current progress of Rizol is solved at once.”
The people gathered in the room let out a short sigh.
“And Sekmeira is supposed to be given a new land from the world she migrated to. To Resol or Geil. Except for the ‘dimension’, it is similar to the situation right before the birth of the emerging empire.”
“Then he didn’t set up the New World Alliance to rule the world… he’s putting on some kind of show to cover up preparations for migration? He wasn’t free from Jin Hwa before that either.”
“I think so. If it’s the power of Rizol that I’ve experienced and if all the power of the demons in the underworld is being used, then the war should already be over.”
There are three grandmasters for all dragons, including the dragonlord.
In addition, in preparation for the dragon horse war, there are many strong people and supplies that have been prepared.
Not only was the situation not good, but in fact, the current Kyle Empire had the strongest power in human history.
Even so, the emperor was absolutely ten years old.
Even if all of them were combined, it was unknown whether they could handle one Lisol, and the Summer Generals, who had a history of killing Grand Masters in their previous lives, were still in good health.
Perhaps, if it had been the ‘Dragon Horse War’ before the return, rather than the ‘New World War’ of this life, the empire would have been able to draw quite hopeful results even if it waged an all-out war with the enemy. I wouldn’t have been so tenth.
‘I’ve been preparing for the dragon horse war before returning… but a war on a scale that is incomparably larger has unfolded.’
Regression has changed the situation. However, the current situation could not be considered better than that at the time of the Yongma War.
But would humanity have been able to remain intact if it had just died then and ended without returning?
Or, would a better future have been possible if he had planned only his well-being after returning?
It was an unpredictable matter.
Even after the death of Yuma, the eunuch, Rizol could have been in control of the world in an invisible place, and it was not revealed at the time, but it was highly likely that he was in fact encouraging a war between the human world.
‘In some ways, it’s better than the Dragon Horse War, which was thought to be solved only with a ‘more prepared war’.
And if the assumption turns out to be true, it might be possible to end the war just by stopping Rizol. It’s
not confirmed, but aside from Natalie’s reasoning, it will be difficult to find anything else that can explain Rizol and Sekmeira’s actions. It was like
Above all, the current Empire was in a very bleak situation.
The recent strategy of the Empire was in the form of Yuma alone in charge of the attack, and Balaur and other strongmen building an all-round defense.
The attack was virtually non-existent. After the war began, Yuma’s sorties were all for recapture of territory and defense.
There was absolutely no time to head to enemy territory, and it was just flowing in a hurry to survive.
If it continues like this, how much longer can it last?
Everyone was reluctant to talk, but it wouldn’t be long. Even if they endured for more than 10 years, a war in which only defense existed was bound to be defeated in the end.
If Hugo woke up, the game would change a bit, but even the Balaur didn’t know when he would recover, and Yuma’s burden was growing day by day.
What if Natalie’s family is true, so what if Hwa returns while she’s holding on somehow?
There was nothing to explain. Humanity would be over, and Risol and his followers would be able to live in the new world.
‘It’s frustrating. It’s not even a matter of meeting Rizol and having a cool discussion. In the first place, since that madman can’t even be traced now…
As Yuma let out a deep sigh, Hella opened her mouth.
“Yuma Drake.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
“Every time I talk about this, I feel it, but it seems that divine beings or transcendental beings have many similarities with humans in the end. So I thought about their actions from the point of view of the emperor.”
“Please tell me.”
“Secmeira abandons the ground. That would be like abandoning the territory of the empire. In order for a nation stronger than the Empire to emerge and enter under them.”
All eyes were focused on Hella.
“But even so, it does not mean giving up all the lands of the Empire. A vassal state and a colony are different, and usually, if I have to choose one, I choose the former. And to become a vassal state, you must have at least some territory.”
“yes.”
“Dimension transplantation would be like offering relatively useless land in that context. It would not be easy for a king to decide to go under someone else. Even more so if it is a one-dimensional god. I guess that’s why I’m calculating.”
“You mean you’re still not sure that Secmeira will go under Risol?”
“Yes. The fact that a completely ‘new world’
exists is something that Lord here does not know. The same might be true of the demon Sekme Ira. It seems that the calculations are not standing.”
If so, it means that there may be room for negotiations between us.
As Hella continued to talk, Kriesha and Mahatricya again showed their surprise.
“Certainly… the way humans think is shocking to us, Emperor.
But it makes sense. You’re talking about trying to negotiate with Sekmeira, not Risol, right?”
Kriesha said. Hella nodded and continued.
“you’re right. Since Rizol is impossible to track down anyway, I think we need to go find Sekhmeira and find out what conditions he received from Rizol.”
“If we can offer Sekmeira a better deal than Rizol… it could change the game.”
“Krisya-sama, no emperor would ever want to be king. Likewise, no god would want to be a god under someone else.”
A moment of silence passed. Hella just made eye contact with him as if asking what her opinion was.
“It sounds like something worth trying, Your Majesty. However, it is highly likely that Secmeira
is not collaborating with Risol just ‘because the conditions are good’. Rather, it is to avoid the return of Hwa.”
While answering that, Yuma thought of Rugal.
Rugal.
Black Dragon, whose real name is Soluto, and became a ‘slave of Hwa’ when he lost his power while serving Geil.
Hwareuk!
Suddenly, Yuma summoned Amula and put it on the table.
“…and I have a means to kill Hwa.”
You can kill Hwa.
That was just a story I heard on the first day I met Rugal in the East.
Although Hwah was actually holding Amula in check, no one could be sure that he would be able to kill him with this. Hwa has never been killed.
“Looks like you have a story worth going to the east and sharing with Emperor Rugal.
If you are confident that you can stop Hwa, you can at least talk to Sekmeira.”
