Episode 114. Preparations for returning home (2)
Yuma
explained to Rasa about the dragon horse war that would ‘inevitably’ happen in the future.
Of course, since Yuma is a regressor, the information he knew was adapted using the names of the dragons as always.
Lasa only spit out thick pipe smoke the entire time she listened to the story. Another war in a few years when you don’t know how long it might take to get the Midwest right now!
“…That’s the story I least want to believe in my life. But since the baron is saying it, I can’t help but believe it.”
It is time for all of humanity to come together as one. It is also an unthinkable problem because we have to go to the West and the East. Compared to the underworld demons, the lower world demons have a higher limit on royalties.”
When Rakir described the ‘underworld’ in the past, he said that it was inferior to the underworld, but the destructive power in the human world was much higher than the underworld.
In the dragon horse war before returning, even Grand Master Duran Jacques died while fighting against the demons vs generals.
Since there are no demon kings in the underworld, they were in fact next to the demon god Sekmeira, and in the underworld, they were about the same level as the demon king.
If the underworld demon king and Duran Zach fought, who would win? As Yuma, who killed the three demon kings himself, he could not imagine his teacher losing.
Even if they didn’t have the power of a demonic sword like Aryeolla, Master and Hugo weren’t great people to lose to the Demon King.
In the next war, the dragons will help the humans. As a messenger of the Balaur, I learned about this in advance and started preparing in the West from long ago.”
“Aren’t the AoE Protection Artifact and Magic Bombardment Amplifier developed for the War of Conquest?”
The outline of the war reported in advance by Lhasa also included the fact that Western support firearms exerted tremendous power in the Battle of Limt.
She naturally assumed that those weapons were originally developed for wars of conquest. That is why they were more sensitive to the invasion of the West.
“I am not interested in killing humans. It might sound funny when I say things like this, but I’m more like a pacifist. It just doesn’t avoid fighting.”
“It makes me laugh that the greatest war hero of all time would say such a thing.
The baron is famous for enjoying unconventional fights even in the West.”
“Well, pacifist is such a lie. haha.”
The two of them, who were making eye contact, laughed at the same time. For a while, they talked about the Dragon Horse War and East-West cooperation.
“I was going to dance with Yuma for the first time in a while, but even after the war ended, there was no time for lovers. Anyway, my lord is great.
I feel like I only know what to do these days.
I don’t mind interfering.”
Sitting cross-legged on one side of the banquet hall, Natalie looked at Yuma and Lassa from the back with a sad expression on her face.
Seeing Natalie wearing a Kantra ball gown that emphasizes the curves and curvatures of her body, many men were distracted, but no one approached.
There is no idiot who will recklessly approach the ‘Lord of the Roses’, one of the greatest contributors to this war.
[Kyahahaha! Girl Whether in the human world or the underworld, a loser is bound to have several women. It doesn’t make sense for you to keep Master Kak to yourself. Even if he gave up his power, his master is the loser of the underworld. I am a demon king And you’re an insignificant bitch Scratch my back.]
“He talks long enough to say that he wants to die. Go mutt.”
[Ki-ing-geo is a dirty girl. ah got it! Don’t hit me!]
“Sir Randell doesn’t even care about Cheryl, so come sit down. Stop shaking the price. Those women thought they were going to die in awe, but aren’t they sorry?”
Randell was deliberately flirting with women to make Cheryl jealous.
War hero A tall, handsome foreign aristocrat. Even when Randel stayed still, women continued to cling to him.
Cheryl, of course, sat next to Natalie and stared at the teacup with an expressionless face.
“Yes. Is that so?”
Natalie’s attitude was that she didn’t like everything anyway.
It wasn’t just because of Yuma that she was in a bad mood.
She even secretly tripped Igor’s feet as he ran to Princess Sebra with a big smile.
fruit sugar! As Igor’s giant fell and hit the floor, the banquet hall became quiet for an instant.
Yuma and Rasa, who were on the balcony, also turned around and watched them.
“I am Natalie! What is this?”
“What are you looking at? ah! I think my leg is broken. who hit and go Is that you, Igor, by any chance?”
“Ah, I couldn’t see straight ahead. sorry! I need to get a pair of glasses. Then I’m done.”
“Princess Sebra, what do you like about that lump of hair….
Colleagues wanted to refute that Natalie’s message was the end of the world, but they couldn’t.
When Yuma saw her like that, she smiled and tried to send a note to Cog.
However, Cog, who recently earned the nickname ‘Dragon Rider’, was also surrounded by women who looked over 20 at first glance.
In the middle, he asked Cog, ‘Could you be that amazing… Cog of the Kingdom of Nabalu?’ There were also people who asked.
“You’d better go see your comrades, Baron. I took up too much time It would be good to hold an East-West summit sooner or later to properly settle the matter of cooperation.”
“I am of the same opinion on those two issues, Princess.”
As Yuma stepped into the ballroom, attention was focused on him.
When Natalie held out his hand, he grabbed it with a big smile as if his irritation had gone.
“Yuma, this is enough for me.”
“what?”
“Congratulations to your major. To dance with you forever.”
“The notorious rose lord said such an unfamiliar sound. I don’t know what to do.”
“how about you?”
“huh?”
Are you good enough?
“of course.”
After the dragon horse war is over, I will grow old enough with you without worrying about anything.
Yuma nodded without letting the words out of his mouth. A safe and happy future was something that could only be reached after the upcoming war was over.
Applause and cheers erupted from all sides as the two began to dance, gently intertwining.
The dancing continued for a long time, and the banquet ended only at dawn.
The special congratulations ceremony and the awarding ceremony came three days later. Yuma and the others were scheduled to return home on Kyle’s military ship as soon as the privilege ends.
For the first time since coming to the east, the party was able to fully enjoy the literal ‘travel’.
In other words, walking around the shopping district, people-watching, and enjoying the culture of a foreign country. It was a break after almost two years.
Even though Yuma and other spirits were just walking the streets, liveliness was spreading throughout the gloomy city.
The sadness and melancholy fear stained by the war are gradually fading away.
“Please protect us again.”
These were the words of a child I met on the street handing over wild flowers.
The child was an orphan who fled at the same time as the outbreak of war, but Yuma was somehow moved and couldn’t answer, only nodding his head.
Fortunately, Eltainer, the capital of Cantra, was not a cruel city where such war orphans were persecuted and beaten for no reason.
Unlike the childhood Yuma, who lost his parents in a magical bombardment one day and wandered in ruins.
Yuma decided to keep the flowers he received from the girl.
So, only one person in the party, Yu Ma, could not concentrate on the vacation.
The road was delayed, so there were a lot of things to discuss with the ‘Yuma’s Wings’ and ‘Ebony’, who arrived to greet Ya Yuma the day after the triumphal ceremony.
The two organizations had been admirably doing what Yuma had instructed them to do.
It took the lead in philanthropy for war refugee relief and material distribution, and even created public opinion for other organizations to follow.
Hearing the rumors of Yuma, even the talented people who gathered at Mus Eye Khan were in a state of enlistment.
“Oh Myungwang Euliver. You have done very well since Natalie left.”
‘Ebony’, which was the largest underworld in Balipoa, was now completely transformed into a liberation organization and government assistant position.
“If it wasn’t for Santi-hyung, Natalie-nim’s Ebony wouldn’t have reached this level.”
Yuma took a close look at their faces.
The Shurians, Omir, Santi, Chi, Oliver… They were the ones who operated or participated in the slave trade, with or without circumstances, not too long ago.
However, after meeting Yuma, he had a completely new life. He has become an influential businessman and is engaged in various social activities.
Suddenly they were proud.
It wasn’t because they became ‘good’ people. Even though he could have betrayed Yuma and fallen further, he was proud of his loyalty.
Great. It was amazing just to have a top rank in an instant, but I never thought it would be this much.”
“Compared to what the lord has accomplished, it is not even far off.”
“Not like that. I heard that you are responsible for the active refugee relief in the eastern region, including Sylmar. I was also a war orphan. I can’t remember, but maybe I was waiting for people like you back then.”
“Ah, my lord…
“Haha, why are you all so solemn? Aren’t most of the guys here having their past tidied up? Anyway, there is one more thing you guys have to do.”
“Just say the word, my lord.”
“Open a trade route connecting the East and the West. I will ask Kantra for support at the imperial level.”
“Aren’t there already trade routes?”
“There should be. However, it is too narrow and the procedure is cumbersome. It’s not a normal trade route you guys have to build. The largest sea route with military purposes in mind in case of emergency.”
It was to open a route that could operate the spirit navigation device to the maximum distance in the western sea.
It was a problem that required enormous capital and technology development, but Yuma decided that it was an essential task for the Dragon Horse War.
Yuma did not know how much damage the east had suffered during the Dragon Horse War before returning. Just like everyone else in the West at the time.
After the sudden invasion, communication between the continents was cut off in an instant.
Right now, even in this war, it took too long for Western reinforcements to arrive.
It was a necessary pioneer for the East and West allied forces to cooperate easily in preparation for the future Yongma War.
Originally, many powerful people in the east and west would have fiercely opposed it, but now there was a justification.
This is because everyone is aware that even if it is not a regressor like Yuma, there is no law preventing another demonic invasion from happening.
“Can we take on such an important matter?”
“Everyone has to come together. The West Imperial Family and Puang Merchants will be partners. And you are now recognized as talented people in the East. Do it with pride.”
I will do my best. Lord!”
“Maybe the various sea routes learned during the pirate days will be helpful. I hope the trashy past that I used to do bottom pirates will be useful even at times like this. There are times when even dog poop can be medicine, right?”
“I really wish I could, Santi.”
After exchanging jokes for a while, Yuma suddenly exhaled smoke from his pipe, not hiding his bitter expression.
“And… there is one more thing for you guys to do. I need to find someone.”
“Heh, didn’t you find all of your colleagues? We thought so…
“We found them all. But after the war, I lost another person.”
“Who are you? We will begin the search immediately.”
After thinking about the boy’s last appearance for a while, Yuma opened his mouth.
“Evan.
