Chapter 244 Deadly Kill (4)
The Magicians’ Disappearance.
It’s not just Phoenix’s problem.
At first, people didn’t pay much attention to the disappearance of the Phoenix Magic Tower, but as wizards disappeared one after another, ‘relevance of the incident’ began to be raised.
that was already several years ago. Although it was certain that the disappearance of the wizards was not an accident, there was no clear evidence related to it.
however.
The magic tower of the phoenix appeared as a shadow.
Roman Dmitri carefully inspected the dead corpse and once again confirmed that Felix was the person he was talking about.
‘The burns that covered half his face could be a coincidence.
However, the magic system used by the shadows was very similar to the magic of the phoenix, and while using the magic of darkness, the basis of the magic was in the attribute of fire.
That’s why I confirmed that I had strong resistance to fire. He must have tried to win with the most powerful fire magic he could use.’
then.
The question is, why did the magic tower of Phoenix fall into the shadow?
His disappearance was sudden and without any sign, and there was no connection with the Kronos Empire at all.
A reasonable suspicion was that forced obedience through the use of black magic might have been achieved.
In Murim, there were beings who used witchcraft similar to him, and they all showed a loss of reason in common.
It was ambiguous.
At least, it seemed that he was thinking and judging the Phoenix mage lord that Roman Dmitri was dealing with.
‘Black magic is a world I cannot fully comprehend. There may be a method of compulsory obedience that I am not aware of.’
“chris.”
“yes.”
“Record the faces of the corpses through the magic imager. We will verify all their identities later.”
“… Did the Kronos Empire really forcibly control the wizards with black magic? if that’s true This matter must be formally proposed to the international community and raised as an issue. Even the Kronos Empire cannot avoid taking responsibility for this incident.”
Chris showed an angry expression.
black magic.
It is a forbidden area.
I couldn’t hide my anger boiling over the fact that the public enemy had touched the power to betray humanity.
said Roman Dmitry.
“The truth is not that important. Whether they voluntarily followed the Kronos Empire or there was some kind of forced intervention. The important fact is that the Kronos Empire revealed the existence of black magicians even while knowing that there was a possibility of ‘discovery’. No, the existence of black magicians has been constantly raised. Three shadows active in the shadow of Kronos. The fact that warlocks are one of them, people denied the reality, but if they wanted to confirm it, they would have been able to find out in the first place.”
Kronos.
They were getting bolder.
The Cronus Empire did not hide its ambitions even in the dispute over the Kingdom of Cairo, revealing the existence of black magicians and openly invading Valhalla territory.
The atrocities of those with power. Rather, they may want the truth to be a signal of war.
People couldn’t face the truth and everyone was watching the continent collapse with their eyes open.
The ambition of conquering the continent.
It won’t take long.
Signals happening all over the continent were showing clear evidence that the desire of the Kronos Empire would soon erupt like an active volcano.
It was fun. If Roman Dmitri was a being who lived by common sense.
The moment he first strayed from Cronus’ eyes, he would have died without being able to approach the truth.
“Reorganize your troops. 1 hour later. We will head straight to the trading city.”
It was far from Dmitry.
Kronos obviously.
I will not give up this golden opportunity to kill Roman Dmitri.
* * *
It was a race against time.
They had to get to the trading city as quickly as possible, but Roman Dmitri was never in a hurry.
when you arrive
Safety was the top priority.
If they are forced to move and are attacked by Cronus right before their arrival, Dmitri’s troops will have no choice but to deal with them in the worst possible condition.
So, I definitely took a break in the middle.
Stopping in a nearby city to secure supplies, and if necessary, spend an entire day to relieve the fatigue of the march.
in such a schedule.
Sanchez is lost in his own thoughts.
When he recalled the battle with the shadows, he felt helpless along with anger.
‘How did Dmitri’s soldiers deal with the shadows? Not all of them are stronger than the warriors of Valhalla.
However, they showed the fact that there is something different from us by cutting the bodies of the shadows that were scattered like smoke.
It must mean that there is a special method.’
the battle is over
Roman Dmitri said he could go back, but Sanchez and the warriors of Valhalla said he couldn’t.
Valhalla’s pride was at stake.
Even if they die because of this choice, they hoped that their lives would be a stepping stone for Roman Dmitri to return safely.
That’s why it was essential to deal with the shadows. If another battle broke out, he wanted to at least make the shadows his companions on the road to the underworld.
He hesitated for a while.
Eventually, Sanchez, who made a decision, approached Roman Dmitri.
“Dmitry Roman. Please tell me how to deal with the shadows.”
I asked directly.
In fact, the chances of consent were slim.
The transmission of the secret was a sensitive matter, and even if Roman Dmitri said that he could not teach it, he had no intention of blaming his opponent.
Conversely, it was a simple task.
Sanchez showed an expression of recognizing that it was an unreasonable request, even if it was himself, asking for a problem that should be seriously considered.
said Roman Dmitry.
“i get it. I will pass on my skills through Chris.”
“… Are you serious?”
“The warriors of Valhalla proved their determination by fighting the shadows. You deserve my skills.”
bold words.
Sanchez felt a surge of emotion at the moment.
Valhalla does not appreciate the dedication of warriors.
However, he did not think that a stranger in a foreign country who looked at it with prejudice would recognize the dedication of the warriors.
like that.
Teaching took place during the march.
At Roman Dmitri’s orders, Chris took over the training, and Chris explained the principles of the technique to them.
“The principle of attacking shadows is actually not that difficult. The shadows have two weaknesses. The first is to attack the gap when the body is reconstructed. In the end, it is a way to attack the fact that in order to exist physically, there is no choice but to have a vulnerable timing. And the second is to see through the flow of mana and sever the link between bodies.”
The explanation was simple.
Dmitri’s soldiers were taught by Roman Dmitri, and it didn’t take long for them to master the art.
Feeling the flow of mana.
It was included in the training process in the first place, and since it is a skill that can be said to be an extension of it, he made the skill his own through sufficient training.
however.
Sanchez and the warriors of Valhalla were different.
Even after a few days, they couldn’t make sense of it, and instead showed a look of surprise at how they succeeded.
“Are all Dmitri only mana geniuses? I don’t understand how you can feel the flow of mana so easily.”
Sanchez’s question.
Then Chris realized.
What Roman Dmitry taught me.
That is how valuable and valuable the teachings were.
sure
The Emperor of Valhalla wanted his allegiance, but the most ideal environment to grow as a swordsman was to be taught by Roman Dmitri until the end.
Whether the opponent is the Kronos Empire or the Valhalla Empire. There was no room for disbelief in such a belief.
If ever surpassed Roman Dmitri.
then.
The world will call itself the continent’s best sword.
* * *
Valhalla was excited.
Whenever Roman Dmitry stopped in a city on his way, the people of Valhalla would come running out and pay their respects.
“iced coffee!”
“Meet Roman Dmitri!”
“I really respect you!”
enthusiastic people.
They filled the streets and some even pretended to bow to the ground.
To the people of Valhalla, Roman Dmitri was no longer just a stranger.
The appearance of breaking through the conspiracies of the Cronus Empire was reminiscent of the hero’s life that once made people’s hearts burn hot.
people said
“Roman Dmitri is a great warrior who will one day rise to the world of warriors. to see his steps. Even after taking poison, he defeated Barbossa, proving his warrior’s fighting spirit, and even though the Kronos Empire openly wants to kill him, he is not backing down even a single step. To the Salamander Continent. There has never been anyone like Roman Dmitri. He is showing the pride of a warrior who is trying to defeat the two great mountains of the continent that people say with a single sword.”
It was a story longed for by Valhalla.
a sword.
Excluding all other background issues, Roman Dmitri proved his existence only by force.
Being from a small country rather added to the special character of a hero.
Unlike the empire, even though there is no background to believe in, the powerful force made all the premise meaningless.
Barbossa fell to his knees after 7 attacks.
Even though the Kronos Empire openly revealed its intention to assassinate, unlike previous history, it has failed each time to kill Roman Dmitri in an exceptional way.
It was a heroic move.
As the events of the past were mentioned one by one, the people of Valhalla considered Roman Dmitri’s existence special.
The road to the trading city.
Eyes and ears focused.
The harassment of the shadows continued, and whenever a battle broke out, the news of victory hit Valhalla.
purple!
Roman Dmitry has won!
This time, the scum of Kronos was killed by his sword!
When people gathered in groups of two or three, they talked about Roman Dmitri without realizing that time was passing.
2 weeks after that.
Finally, when the trading city was just around the corner, Valhalla’s forces finally came to Roman Dmitri.
* * *
“From now on, we will guide you.”
It was the man who identified himself as Rodriguez.
As a person who leads one of Valhalla’s military groups, the Green Field, his ranking was 7th, one step lower than Barbossa.
That was good news.
Roman Dmitri reacted coldly to a situation that ordinary people would accept.
“Let’s rule out the pretense. I don’t need your help. It is impossible for Kronos to run rampant in Valhalla’s territory without Valhalla’s permission. It seems that the troops were sent on purpose out of concern for people’s eyes, but since neither of them knows the truth, it would be better to just take the right cause and resign.”
“As rumor has it, you are a really bold person.”
Rodriguez grinned.
Death of Barbossa.
It was a great achievement, but there was no reason to fear Roman Dmitri in the land of Valhalla.
“If you think this is a Valhalla conspiracy, why are you taking this risk? Public opinion is already on the side of Roman Dmitry. If you take a city and pass the time, Valhalla will eventually have no choice but to send Roman Dmitri to safety. this job. It’s something you brought on yourself. Why did you go on a rampage and make things worse?”
As Roman Dmitry’s fame grew.
The reason why he had to die became clear.
Roman Dmitri also showed a light laugh at Rodriguez’s blatantly revealing intentions.
as if it’s the same
I looked down at my opponent.
“The premise is wrong. you can’t kill me Even if you summon Kronos and attack me directly, that fact won’t change. So there’s no need to waste time. No matter how desperate you are, it will not happen that I die in the land of Valhalla. and.”
Moment.
Rodriguez’s expression hardened.
The savage force that rose up squeezed his heart.
“As soon as I return to Dmitri, you will pay for it. therefore. If you’re going to kill me, do your best. If it’s not now, a better opportunity won’t come again.”
Roman Dmitry.
He was sure to be mad.
While being attacked by the Kronos Empire in the land of Valhalla.
Turning the continent’s two major mountain ranges into enemies, he boldly gave both empires an excuse to attack.
I was genuinely curious.
next few days.
Will Roman Dmitri really be able to go back to being Dmitry?
Rodriguez was instinctively convinced that this should never happen.
