Chapter 229 The Valhalla Empire (4)
Moment.
Baron Paulo realized that he had taken a step back.
My face turned red.
It’s a shame.
Until he rose to the position of lord, he also lived as a warrior, so he could not accept the fact that he was simply overwhelmed by the force and resigned.
But even if Valhalla is a closed and racist country.
There was no exception to anyone’s attitude of accepting victory or defeat in a duel.
“… I will accept defeat. As promised, I will put the previous matters aside and guide you directly to the capital.”
I swallowed my anger.
The order of the superior was out of the question.
We fought a duel the way we wanted and if we lost, we thought it was right to accept the outcome.
Baron Paulo noticed.
Then the general soldiers came forward and took the savages who couldn’t come to their senses and moved them.
‘To defeat the savages so mercilessly. Roman Dmitry. It may be more than you think.’
this confrontation.
People were confident of Barbossa’s victory.
No matter how famous Roman Dmitri is recently, Barbossa has been on the lips of people on the continent for over ten years.
So it was unexpected that Roman Dmitri agreed.
Valhalla openly revealed its intention to take revenge, but Roman Dmitri made a bold choice not to back down.
A being with the same orientation as Valhalla.
It was a mutation.
He was born with an inclination that was not suitable for a subject who was only from a small country.
said Baron Paulo.
“First of all, we will guide you to the new accommodation. If you are resting comfortably at your accommodation while figuring out the schedule for the warp gate that connects directly to the capital, we will send you as soon as the schedule comes out. And I apologize for the insolence in the past. As Roman Dmitry said, Valhalla is a country with racism. But if you know the history of Valhalla, I hope you understand where our perceptions come from.”
long time ago
The days when Valhalla was called the ‘savage of the south’.
There was a time when the people of the continent invaded the territory of Valhalla without permission and attacked them in order to extort the resources of the jungle.
In reality, the fact that Valhalla was equipped with considerable power was revealed and the charter was reversed, but the memory of pain accumulated in the memory of the ancestors left a feeling of antipathy against other races.
As of now.
Although the Valhalla imperial family is seeking drastic changes by accepting outside talent, not everyone agrees with the imperial family’s opinion yet.
What is necessary for national power?
Still, for Valhalla, it was the opinion of the common people that ‘born in Valhalla’ should be nurtured rather than talents from outside.
Conservative forces pursuing the existing.
A progressive force that wants to change.
It was the reality of Valhalla.
Roman Dmitri did not bother to comment on Paulo’s changed attitude and walking ahead.
To end the grudge with victory or defeat.
It was also the method of the Demonic Cult that Roman Dmitri was familiar with.
* * *
Baron Paulo was a man whose words and actions were consistent.
He guided them to a lodging that was incomparably better than a shabby inn, and Roman Dmitri ordered the soldiers to rest.
inside a large room.
Roman Dmitry lay down on the sofa.
Then, he carefully organized his thoughts on the Valhalla Empire.
‘Valhalla, unlike Cronus, is a fairly dual country. While Cronus openly reveals his ambition to conquer the continent, Valhalla seems to be satisfied with the present, with warriors forming the center. The problem is that the outside and the inside are different. Valhalla clearly has similar ambitions to Cronus.’
history in the past.
Valhalla’s actions had a clear commonality.
It seemed to always criticize Cronus, but he did not bother to stop the wars taking place all over the continent.
them too.
I hoped other countries except Valhalla would self-destruct.
In fact, Valhalla’s ambition was only natural.
Some people fantasize about the title of a nation of warriors, but the so-called barbarians of the south will need brains to defy all sorts of conspiracies before they can form an empire.
In fact, Valhalla was good at conspiracy tricks.
That’s why they planted their own minion called ‘Earl of Denver’ inside Cairo, and although they don’t show an active attitude in conquering the continent, they always look for opportunities.
and.
I could tell just by looking at this one.
To avenge the Earl of Denver, they chose a very clever way to invite them to a duel rather than assassinate them.
‘Valhalla chose a way to stimulate me until I went on stage. If I defeat Barbossa. Will they really win the outcome? Conservative forces will accept the results, but those who are currently leading Valhalla are progressive forces. at last. Regardless of the outcome, the move in Valhalla is bound to be dangerous.’
The moment I set foot in Paulo.
Danger was unavoidable.
This place was a place of death, and from now on, it wouldn’t be strange no matter what happened.
the empire.
those with power.
No excuses needed.
Even if people criticized him for harming Roman Dmitri, he was an existence that would fade over time.
‘It’s like a previous life.’
life of the weak.
I was used to it.
A man named Baek Joong-hyeok took a risk in an environment worse than now to gain power.
so that.
It didn’t matter what Valhalla meant.
The more actively they respond.
The finale, which decorates the end, will inevitably be even more fiery.
* * *
The next day.
Baron Paulo sent someone.
“My name is Sanchez. I will guide you to the capital.”
He was a man in his mid-thirties.
With his tanned, tanned skin and his hair tied back, he said that he had to move to a nearby city with a warp gate.
All the words for Roman Dmitri’s party were prepared.
I went out to Paulo following Sanchez, and an atmosphere of natural conversation was formed on the boring road.
“I have heard rumors about Roman Dmitri. It is said that when he defeated Butler, a continental ranker, and defeated Count Nicholas at the age of only his mid-20s, he completely turned Cairo upside down, going up in order from 100th place. How much admiration came out when I heard the rumors. Even though I was not born in Valhalla, I felt like a warrior from Valhalla history appeared in this world.”
He was a talkative man.
He showed respect at first, but as the travel time got longer, he started to touch on a slightly sensitive subject.
“… But is it really true that you defeated Gustavo Knights alone? That these are rumors always tend to be exaggerated, so I don’t really believe what people say. It’s none other than the Gustavo Knight Commander. Does it make sense to cut through the crowd and cut down the knight commander in a situation where the soldiers of the Kronos Empire are swarming? Why is it that in the absurd story in the history books, a single swordsman splits the earth and cuts down the sky, but isn’t Roman Dmitri a living being?”
It gave off a strange nuance.
like tapping.
Chris’ expression twisted at the remark that kept getting on his nerves.
“Be careful with your words.”
“Okay. Did you say Sanchez? You seem to have something you want to say to me, but tell me the main point.”
In the words of Roman Dmitry.
Chris suppressed his anger.
In the country of Valhalla, from beginning to end, no courtesy to guests could be found.
Sanchez grinned.
In the first place, Roman Dmitri’s guidance was handled by someone else, but he inevitably decided to do it himself.
“I’ll be honest with you while the words come out. Roman Dmitry. What qualifications do you have for being singled out as Barbossa-sama’s opponent?”
his remarks.
Aggressive attitude meant only the story of Valhalla that Roman Dmitri did not know.
* * *
Sanchez
He was a pupil of Morales, number 12 in Valhalla.
Morales and Barbossa.
It was a very famous evil relationship in Valhalla.
Born in the same region, they had been competing since childhood, but Morales was always left behind by Barbossa’s dazzling talent.
Morales wasn’t lacking in skill.
He was also born with a talent worthy of being called a genius in Valhalla, but Barbossa’s talent was unmatched.
half a year ago from now.
Morales was singled out as a warrior for the festival.
A festival honoring the souls of warriors.
There is a saying that those who die there go to Valhalla regardless of victory or defeat, so Morales said he would go on stage with joy.
Besides, when I heard that the opponent was Barbossa.
He sincerely thought that the god of warriors had created the perfect stage for him.
If you defeat Barbossa.
It was an opportunity to end the bad relationship of the past.
Conversely, even if he were to die, he would die for Valhalla, so there was nothing more gratifying than this.
however.
The arrival of Roman Dmitri upset everything.
Morales strongly protested against the decision of the Valhalla leadership, but there was no way to reverse the decision already made.
Sanchez said.
“Dmitry Roman. The opportunity you have stolen is the wish of every warrior in Valhalla. But what qualifications do you have to go on stage? The leaders of Valhalla say that you are the right person for your reputation on the continent, but I don’t believe the rumors. Isn’t that too absurd to say? Even Morales, whom I serve, has not reached that level in his mid-twenties. The continent’s first sword is the same. You were not properly validated and you usurped the position we all hoped for.”
since being disqualified.
Morales lived in pain.
Looking at that scene, Sanchez grew ill feelings toward Roman Dmitri.
“You don’t know the value of that position. There are many warriors in Valhalla who would give their lives if anyone could stand on the stage. Please tell me sometime. Do you think you are qualified to deal with Barbossa in place of Morales? If you die without being able to properly receive Barbossa’s sword, what will you do with the broken hearts of the Valhalla warriors who have been waiting for that day?”
his words.
It was the same as the Valhalla Empire.
A firm belief that Barbossa would not be defeated.
Just as they spread rumors about Roman Dmitri, they devalued Roman Dmitri from beginning to end.
That moment.
Hey hey.
Roman Dmitry stopped, grabbing the horse by the reins.
* * *
From start to finish.
I didn’t like the attitude of the people of Valhalla.
People who don’t speak surrender.
People who say Valhalla is the best.
It was stupid.
Is that really the right thing to do?
In a world of weak meat, it was only natural to admit defeat and bow your head.
If a tooth that is only a sheep exposes its teeth towards a beast of prey.
People don’t applaud it as courage.
However, the people of Valhalla showed a tendency to take death lightly to the point of stupidity.
Valhalla.
I didn’t know if that place existed.
However, Roman Dmitry said with doubts towards himself.
“Sanchez. What is the basis of your judgment?”
past life.
Even if he lived as the son of the Heavenly Demon and showed his strength, he did not tolerate living while being ignored by people.
If you look down on it once.
In the world of the jungle, it meant the end.
Valhalla’s attitude.
Sanchez’s remarks.
The reaction of the people of Valhalla is that they are disappointed that Roman Dmitri is on stage.
I touched Roman Dmitri’s planting.
Sanchez said.
“… No evidence is required. Your reputation is still only that much.”
“okay?”
timely.
Roman Dmitry showed a ferocious smile in a situation that matched the desired picture.
“If you have any doubts about me, I will show you that the results in Cairo and Valhalla are not that different. There are still a few days left before the showdown takes place. Tell the warriors of Valhalla, including Morales. If there is a warrior who visits me before the end of the eve festival, I will gladly deal with him at my place. how about I think it would be good for you to challenge me yourself. If you draw your sword, I will deal with you right here.”
at that point.
Sanchez felt the moment the accident stopped.
