Chapter 240 The Predator’s Way (4)
Spectators watching the stage.
They felt like their thought circuit was shutting down.
who is barbossa
Although dishonorable rumors circulated that he usually uses poison, it is an undeniable fact that he rose to the position of the 12 continental swords with his skills.
Barbossa’s skill is real. The reason why Morales criticized Barbossa but did not recklessly apply for a match was due to the difference in skill.
however.
How can you explain the scene in front of you?
Even in the situation where the decision was made, people looked at the stage with mesmerized faces.
“… Am I just staring at something?”
someone’s words.
It was everyone’s idea.
Even before the confrontation, people expressed anger at the rumors about Roman Dmitri.
In the first place, Roman Dmitri is at a disadvantage.
Although he showed overwhelming force in the duel with Morales, most people were convinced of Barbossa’s superiority.
situation where the outcome is obvious. People flocked to the festival site and grinded their teeth, saying that if the situation of the poison was really revealed, they would not stay still.
Victory was not expected.
Opponent is Barbossae.
Roman Dmitri would have been recognized even if he overcame the bad condition of taking poison and showed an equal game.
so that.
I couldn’t believe it even more.
Roman Dmitry won.
It also consistently overpowered opponents, and Barbossa never had an advantage against Roman Dmitri.
When we exchanged workshops for the first time. People admired Barbossa’s skillful appearance.
Despite Roman Dmitri’s quick attack, Barbossa’s response was as expected.
But the second attack.
3rd attack.
Like Barbossa’s face cracking when the fourth attack was attempted, the crowd was stained with bewilderment.
It didn’t make sense.
Barbossa.
Continental Twelve Swords.
I couldn’t do anything.
Looking at the final disappearance, people could not accept it even though it was the result of seeing it with their own eyes.
And that’s not all.
even with disastrous results.
The fact that they hadn’t confirmed Roman Dmitri’s ‘power’ sat heavily on people’s hearts.
“… A showdown between Barbossa and Roman Dmitri. The winner is Roman Dmitry.”
on stage.
The referee announced the result in a trembling voice.
Denial is only fleeting.
I had no choice but to accept reality.
Seeing Roman Dmitri standing alone on stage, the audience screamed simultaneously as if they were about to explode.
“Waaaaaaa!”
“Roman Dmitry won!”
“This is the birth of the twelve swords of the new continent!”
Cheers spread like wildfire.
still.
People couldn’t fully accept reality.
However, the fact that Roman Dmitri, who showed the pride of a warrior in a confrontation with Morales, defeated Barbossa was a truth that could be confirmed with both eyes.
It was a pleasure. The fact that those who know the honor of Valhalla have not been defeated. The fact that he overturned the game with his skills even after taking poison.
people screamed
Although he was not from Valhalla, Roman Dmitry deserved applause at the honoring of the warriors.
It was then.
On the stage where everyone goes crazy.
one went up
The man with a slightly nervous expression was Greg, who had received a mission from Roman Dmitri.
* * *
One day ago.
Greg did not understand Roman Dmitri’s intentions.
I knew exactly what the intention was, but I wanted to somehow stop Roman Dmitri from the foolish plan.
‘Even if you analyze the ingredients of the poison, if you lose in a confrontation with Barbossa, it will be meaningless. Does Roman Dmitri really believe he can defeat Barbossa? I will admit his skills through a confrontation with Morales, but he won’t be allowed a chance to prove the use of poison.’
It was hopeless.
Death of Morales.
After checking the events of the day, Greg and others tried to save Roman Dmitri somehow.
this plan.
It was very dangerous.
If Barbossa finds out that there is a group interfering with his plans, he will surely slaughter Greg and others.
It’s a risk taking. While analyzing the ingredients of the poison, he hesitated to withdraw his foot, but he did not want to betray Roman Dmitri.
Valhalla.
He was rotting in such a weak heart.
The forces that currently lead Valhalla did not risk their lives any longer even as they cried out for Valhalla.
So Greg risked his life.
so risked his life
and.
I saw the results before my eyes.
The sight of him destroying Barbossa gave Greg confidence.
Even though it was to expose his face, he appeared in front of people and presented evidence to prove his poison.
“I risked my life for you. So please reveal the ugly truth to people. So that the people of Valhalla know a little bit of shame. Roman Dmitry. How hard you have overcome.”
“Good job.”
Evidence accepted.
People’s eyes were focused.
In a situation where everyone questioned Greg’s existence, Roman Dmitri raised his voice while looking at the Emperor.
“Last evening. Someone poisoned my tea. What I’m holding in my hand right now is evidence that the tea was poisoned, and you can check it yourself if need be. Actually, it doesn’t matter to me who the poison was used by. I’m just disappointed with Valhalla’s attitude towards this case.”
Took.
threw the evidence.
It fell to the floor, revealing a black color, proving that Roman Dmitri’s words were true.
“When you noticed the existence of poison and wanted to confirm the truth. Viscount Jonathan asked me if I could be held accountable for comments that insulted Valhalla. Isn’t that a funny situation? I am just a stranger in a foreign country. In a situation where the servants at the inn say poison came out of the tea prepared, I felt truly sorry for Valhalla’s attitude of passing the blame rather than confirming the truth. I won’t make any assumptions. According to common sense, someone who wanted to knock me down would have poisoned the car, but Viscount Jonathan’s response to denying the truth in front of him proved that Valhalla’s pride had fallen to the ground. So I accepted the challenge. I did not want to follow the intention of the group that used male and female even though their bodies were not intact due to poison.”
The poison had no effect.
but.
didn’t reveal the truth.
The people of Valhalla liked to think that they had won the handicap even though they had been poisoned.
spectators.
Their emotions boiled over.
As they listened to Roman Dmitri, they blushed as if they had made a shameful mistake.
What a shame.
To think that he invited a stranger from another country and used poison to manipulate the match in a place called the country of warriors.
I couldn’t bear to look at Roman Dmitri’s face properly.
“I want to ask His Majesty the Emperor. I heard that Valhalla is a land of warriors. But on the contrary, is the image of persecuting and holding me accountable for trying to confirm the truth in line with the values that Valhalla pursues? If I were defeated in a confrontation with Barbossa. The truth would have been buried, and the prosecutor Roman Dmitri would have disappeared into the back of history as a mediocre existence. Your Majesty the Emperor. I hope for an answer on this matter.”
on stage.
I looked up at the emperor.
Upon Roman Dmitri’s remarks, the Emperor of Valhalla showed uncomfortable planting from the expression on his face.
* * *
said the Valhalla Emperor.
“The empire has become ridiculous.”
that too.
The truth didn’t matter.
The fact that Barbossa uses poison?
I knew.
The problem was that even after using poison, they were defeated unilaterally, and the ugly truth provided an excuse for people to be exposed.
Spoiled the nightlife.
Roman Dmitri’s power was shockingly great, but the fact that he had bared his ‘teeth’ at him offended the Emperor of Valhalla.
“Viscount Jonathan. Are the words of Roman Dmitry true?”
under the seat of honor.
Among the nobles lined up in a row, Viscount Jonathan said with a pale face.
“… sorry.”
“Yes, that is true.”
this moment.
The Marquis of Belfir didn’t say anything.
The Emperor of Valhalla is a man whose punishment for responsibility is certain.
I couldn’t guarantee what kind of situation I would get if I made a remark like a leniency in the current situation.
Sigh.
got up from the seat
The Valhalla Emperor drew a sword from the belt of a knight next to him.
“Sinners come before me.”
Viscount Jonathan trembled.
A sword that glistens in the sun.
My heart sank.
Feeling the coolness, Viscount Jonathan ran to the ground in a month, prostrated himself on the floor, and appealed in an earnest voice.
“I’m really sorry. It seems that the impatience to finish the situation was ahead of the thought that something unpleasant should not happen one day before the festival. I will be careful not to let this happen again. please just live I will devote my whole life to the Valhalla Empire.”
“Don’t be mean.”
Took.
I pushed Viscount Jonathan with the tip of my sword.
Viscount Jonathan gritted his teeth at the sharp pain digging into his flesh and endured the pain.
The Valhalla Emperor said.
“Viscount Jonathan. You have tarnished Valhalla’s honor. The festival honoring the souls of the warriors was ruined by your complacency. And I have no intention of giving trash like you a chance.”
“Please… evil!”
puck!
swung the sword
The weak arm of the Emperor of Valhalla decapitated Viscount Jonathan without hesitation.
Blood spattered.
Viscount Jonathan trembled and tried to grab the crotch of Emperor Valhalla’s pants with an earnest hand.
The Valhalla Emperor continued to swing his sword.
The body that was not properly trained could not cut off the strong man’s neck at once, and Viscount Jonathan’s breath did not stop even though the surroundings were stained with blood as he swung his sword several times.
Even the people of Valhalla were brutal enough to play a role. The sound of piercing flesh continued to linger in my ears.
Finally.
dump.
Viscount Jonathan’s body collapsed.
The Emperor of Valhalla threw back his bloodstained hair and smirked.
“Whoop whoop. This is enough. Wouldn’t that be enough to take responsibility for this incident?”
gasped for breath.
Gaze towards Roman Dmitry.
It was clearly the appearance of a madman.
Even so.
Roman Dmitry looked up at the Emperor with a steady face.
“It’s not enough. Murder is not the way to solve a problem. Punishing Viscount Jonathan is only a personal punishment. We ask for institutional measures to prevent something like this from happening again.”
An attitude that never backs down.
The Valhalla Emperor smiled brightly.
sure
Roman Dmitry did not feel fear even in front of the Emperor of the Empire.
* * *
The situation has been finalized.
The two pillars of Valhalla.
Count Gomes and Marquis Belfir followed the emperor.
They couldn’t spit out a word carelessly as the blood dripped on the floor as they walked ahead.
“Count Gomes. What do you think of Roman Dmitri?”
“… He’s a dangerous figure. Barbossa is the Twelve Swords of the Continent. If your skills are enough to overwhelm him, Roman Dmitri may be the best person on the continent. Of course, I don’t think he’s the strongest. In the ranks within the twelve swords of the Continent, Barbossa is not a top performer. However, it cannot be overlooked that Roman Dmitri is not yet 30 years old.”
“What do you think, Marquis Belfir?”
The Marquis of Belfir didn’t look good.
Viscount Jonathan’s death lingered in his mind, but now was not the time to disobey the Emperor of Valhalla.
“I am the same as Count Gomes. But what I consider most dangerous is not Roman Dmitry’s personal force. Anyway, there is a limit to the area that an individual can handle in a war between countries. By the way, Roman Dmitry. Even when they dared set foot on Imperial territory, they showed no signs of backing down. He is a being with predatory tendencies from birth. Despite knowing that he had used the poison, he accepted a confrontation with Barbossa and, after defeating him, revealed the truth in the public eye. It’s about knowing when. I would have shut Roman Dmitri’s mouth if he had said such a thing off stage.”
Roman Dmitry’s moves.
It was disconcerting.
The perfect plan to avenge the Count of Denver was torn apart by Roman Dmitri.
The Valhalla Emperor laughed.
excited
A really interesting existence appeared in a boring life.
“Roman Dmitry dared to speak out against my punishment. He is a warrior worthy of Valhalla, but he cannot be spared for the future of Valhalla. Fully support Kronos’s plan. Never let him go back alive so that Roman Dmitri can’t return to Dmitri safely.”
peers like yourself.
The intent to kill arose.
The Emperor of Valhalla wished for the death of Roman Dmitri.
A collusion with Kronos was opposed by conservatives.
However, the conservative Count Gomes did not refute the appearance of a dangerous being called Roman Dmitri.
that too.
Roman Dmitry admitted that he was dangerous.
Even if it was different from the will of the conservatives, they compromised with reality for the sake of practical benefit.
“I will follow your orders.”
“I will definitely punish Roman Dmitri.”
they were sure
Roman Dmitry.
You will never be able to return alive.
