Chapter 305 The Three Customers (3)
Battle with Shefir.
Dealing with him, Roman Dmitri witnessed the flow of mana.
‘It’s different from normal low circle wizards. His magic starts in the middle battle and creates explosive power in the upper battle.’
It was strange.
People said that it formed a circle in the heart before it was stopped, and the mana gushing out from there was immediately manifested as magic.
However, Shaffir’s method was not common.
When the mana that occurred in the middle battle reached the upper stage, the mana harmonized with nature and created a tremendous explosive power.
Abandon prejudice.
I didn’t reject it because it was different from the existing one, but I thought about why Shefir did it that way.
‘Sefir is an 8th circle mage. People knew that the realm of the 8th Circle existed, but Sefir was the only one who actually proved that he had reached the 8th Circle. Perhaps the existing mages did not have the conditions to reach the 8th circle. The degree of completeness of the circle has already finished preparing to form the 8th ring, but it must have been that they did not advance beyond the 8th circle because they did not know how to use the upper level battle.’
It was a hypothesis.
It wasn’t a clear fact, but if you think the top tier match is a clue to the 8th circle, the situation fits plausibly.
then.
The Sangdan War was a clue to the magic revolution.
Those who trained in the upper level battle would open the path to the 8th circle, and at the same time, there was a high probability that mages below that level would become stronger than before through training in the upper level battle.
It was a hypothesis that Roman Dmitri could have tried.
The people of the Salamander Continent did not even know the concept of Danjeon, but Jungwon Moorim classified Danjeon into subdivisions and completed it after a lot of trial and error how to train each Danjeon.
Two-way Goddess.
It was a way to train the top battle.
At one time, when Baek Joong-hyeok was studying martial arts, he created a new Yang-ui-shin-gong based on the shaman’s Yang-ui-shin-gong.
hardening of the mind.
In the case of training Yangui Shingong, the development of the brain exceeds human limits, but in the case of those who train the lower part, the flow of mana is scattered through the top of the head due to the opening of the upper part.
It was truly a gyereuk (鷄肋).
It wasn’t a very good training method for warriors, but if the development of upper class warfare is the key to breaking the wall of the 8th circle, then there is no better method than Yang’s Shin Gong for wizards.
so that.
Returning to Dmitry, he called Felix.
He told me the conclusion he had been thinking about and told him about Yang’s new art. A few days later, Felix visited Roman Dmitri with a surprised face.
“… Lord. What the hell is this technology?”
sure
Yanguishingong was a revolution that would develop magic.
* * *
Last month.
The wizards of Phoenix succeeded in incorporating magic into the upper ranks.
I can’t say it’s perfect yet, but the high-end battle that I trained with Yangui’s divine art showed a clear effect.
Knox.
He was a living example.
The magic that exploded through the middle battle and the upper stage showed stronger destructive power than before, and the speed of processing magic became ridiculously faster due to the development of the brain.
It was for this reason that Edwin Hector felt that the casting was omitted.
He used magic two to three times faster than common sense, so there was no way to stop Nox’s magic even though he was on the same level.
his defeat.
It was a natural result.
Edwin Hector could not have predicted that the magic revolution had already begun.
“I will ask you again. Why should I go through the trouble of telling Hector the secret of the Merchant War?”
explicit refusal.
Edwin Hector felt helpless.
As Roman Dmitry said.
There was no reason for Dmitri to share the secrets of the war.
Although the concept of Danjeon was revealed through a swordsmanship presentation, Dmitri is not an idiot who unconditionally gives up what he has.
The swordsmanship presentation had a clear purpose.
At the same time that Dmitri defeated the Kronos Empire, he redefined the concept of the aura and usurped Alexander’s reputation.
It created a huge ripple effect.
Even if other countries find out about Danjeon, dramatic changes won’t happen, but Roman Dmitri formed the basis for a leap into an empire with a single announcement.
but.
The top battle is different.
No matter how allied they were, the benefits they gained by sharing the top battle were not that great.
Think about it.
Rather, if the ‘secret of the war’ is used as bait to merge other mage towers, mages who long for brain development will inevitably flock to Dmitri.
But share it with Hector and the Magic Tower in the sky? Unlike the swordsmanship revolution, the achievement of causing the magic revolution was no longer needed.
It was bittersweet.
There was no reason to convince him.
‘The Phoenix Magic Tower is already establishing a system using the secrets of the Merchant War. If they run out as starters, we never know when our chance will come back. But then. If the Cronus Empire starts a war before that, Hector Kingdom will have no choice but to remain a bystander as if history repeats itself.’
It’s not that I’m on the sidelines because I want to be on the sidelines.
Because he has no power, he just watches in awe, and the people of Hector will suffer meaningless sacrifices like that.
He clenched his fists.
himself.
a reasonable person
It wasn’t the kind that appealed to emotions, but this time I wanted to hold on to the only rope, even if it was poor.
It was then.
“There is no reason for Dmitri to share the secrets of the top battle. but only one If the kingdom of Hector swears a master-servant relationship. Dmitri will take responsibility for Hector’s future as a relationship that guarantees Hector’s freedom.”
at that point.
Edwin Hector raised his head in surprise.
* * *
Edwin Hector.
It was an attractive presence.
He was the first enemy general defeated by Roman Dmitri, but he recognized his value from the start.
surprise attack.
bold judgment.
And even the individual’s ability to use magic.
Edwin Hector might have grown into a greater person than he is now if he hadn’t come from a small country.
It was the same with the confrontation with Knox just now.
Edwin Hector felt powerless that he had been defeated, but his brief improvisation despite Nox’s overwhelming advantage proved what Edwin Hector was all about.
Battlefield.
Edwin Hector was the leading commander.
He risked his life with the soldiers and lived a life that was not easy enough to instill the habits of the War Mage into his body.
I like it.
So, I accepted an alliance with him.
‘Magic and swordsmanship are different areas. As far as swordsmanship is concerned, I can handle everything, but my control over the unknown is nothing but arrogance. If there’s anything I’m lacking. Accepting people to complement it will steer Dmitry in the right direction going forward.’
Heavenly Demon Baek Joong-hyeok.
His strength was not only his strength.
the missing part.
filled with people
Count Fabius, who had been stuck here and there like a traitor, as if he had accepted a monster to supplement his uncompromising political ability, became the man of Roman Dmitri.
So was Edwin Hector.
Felix of the Phoenix Magic Tower complements the magical part, but it was impossible to handle the huge area of magic with only the Phoenix.
at last.
I needed a person.
A reliable being who will help Felix and actively save the magic revolution that comes from Yang’s divine art.
Edwin Hector.
he could see
The brilliant gem looked at Roman Dmitri and showed agitated eyes.
“Choose. If you say you will follow Dmitri, I promise you a new future.”
* * *
Master-servant relationship.
It was an unexpected development.
No, it was something I had never thought of.
different from allies.
The concept of union means an equal relationship with Dmitri, but from the moment Roman Dmitri’s proposal is accepted, the way of conversation will change.
Roman Dmitry treats him with respect.
Roman Dmitri was demanding a relationship in which Hector’s kingdom would support Dmitri, who was still only a principality.
It was disconcerting at first.
Strangely, however, the situation in which the relationship between master and servant was mentioned did not sound unpleasant.
‘… What have I been living for all this time?’
royal heir.
People looked up to the life of Edwin Hector.
The life of the royal family was what they thought of as a prince managing servants in a royal family where wealth and honor were guaranteed.
But Edwin Hector’s reality was not like that.
From a young age until he earned the reputation of ‘Hector’s Star’, Edwin Hector had to deal with many things that were revealed to people.
not even for a moment.
There was no comfortable day.
Even when the Kronos Empire didn’t intentionally induce poor harvests, Hector’s kingdom couldn’t be said to be such a good country to live in.
That’s why I suffered from work on behalf of my incompetent father.
He handled the piles of paperwork and learned magic in his spare time to fulfill his reputation as Hector’s Star.
why.
did you live like that
And even now, Edwin Hector sought out Roman Dmitri to avenge Kronos.
‘Born as a prince of Hector, I was not allowed to dream. There was a time when I thought such a life was unfair, but now the comfort and peace of Hector’s kingdom has become the meaning of my existence. That’s enough. I don’t want a life where I ascend to the throne and enjoy wealth and glory, but I hope that Hector will find peace at the end of this disgusting reality after destroying the Kronos Empire.’
really.
It was a sad life.
Edwin Hector has become such an existence that he cannot live for himself.
then.
Is there any reason not to swear allegiance to Roman Dmitry?
Hector did not want great power.
Like Cronus and Valhalla, what they wanted was different from those who widened their eyes to devour the continent.
I only hope for Hector’s peace.
I just wanted to give Hector’s people a life where they woke up without worries and didn’t grab their stomachs for every meal.
In the first place, there was no need to fight for interests with those in power.
If they didn’t covet Hector’s rice bowl, their pursuits were completely different.
distant future.
drew a picture.
If Roman Dmitri conquers the continent, will Hector, who guards the continent, be happy?
‘You will be happy. At least the Dmitri I know doesn’t sacrifice the happiness of those who follow him.’
Rumors spread across the border.
When Henderson died, people said that he would introduce a system such as the national merit system, and people had vague envy of Dmitri.
How good would it be to be protected by such a country?
How does it feel to have the power and wealth to be able to give like that?
Watching Dmitri’s actions, Edwin Hector may have longed for a life with Roman Dmitri without realizing it at some point.
so.
The master-servant relationship that Roman Dmitry spoke of didn’t sound bad.
Edwin Hector dreamed of a future with Dmitri because of his understanding of his value and his reaching out.
And then.
I was sure
Hector’s people will be happy even if he can’t surpass Roman Dmitri.
“I will follow.”
At first the voice was small.
Edwin Hector looked at Roman Dmitri and spoke again.
“If you promise me a future for Hector, I will give my life for Roman Dmitri.”
that day.
Dmitri the kingdom of Hector.
No, I got a guy named Edwin Hector.
* * *
It was a busy day.
In the morning, he met Hoffman and his relationship with Golden Bank changed, but at lunch he got the Hector Kingdom and Edwin Hector.
oath of allegiance.
Edwin Hector knelt.
Some people continue to doubt even after seeing such an appearance, but Roman Dmitri provided funds for the rescue of the ‘Yang-ui God’ and Hector’s stability.
For Edwin Hector, blind faith was embarrassing.
I wanted to ask if he didn’t think about the possibility of betrayal, but I heard that all the followers of Roman Dmitri were so immersed.
It was Dmitry’s way.
Trust breeds trust, so Roman Dmitri solidified the relationship by first showing trust.
Betrayal didn’t worry.
Just like the spies followed Dmitry.
He did not trust people, but trusted his own abilities.
it’s not arrogance
Arrogance accompanied by grounds was rightly expressed as confidence.
The sun went down.
As it got darker outside, Dmitri greeted the third guest without warning.
The guest requested a private meeting with Roman Dmitry.
When the meeting finally took place, he spat out the words with a face burning with impatience.
“No, I tried to hold back as much as I could for fear of looking like a strange person, but when the hell are you going to make a new sword?”
Marquis of Valentino.
The collector’s patience has reached its limit.
