Chapter 342 Graxar (6)
The situation around me caught my eye.
The World Tree revived.
And the elves who swear allegiance, including the Mother Elf.
The sight changed in an instant reminded Roman Dmitri of what the brown rock had told him.
“About several decades ago. We found a mass of fiery fire deep underground. It is a dangerous power that can burn the whole world, but if used well, it is also the only hope to melt the world tree.”
The situation was sketched out.
In the process of connecting the World Tree and the mind, a fiery fire must have occurred, and the fire controlled like a horse on a brown rock seemed to melt the frozen World Tree.
If so, he could fully understand the reaction of the elves.
For those who worship the world tree like a god, their existence will be special.
but.
Simply that was not enough to accept the oath of allegiance.
Elves were a race with high utility, but Roman Dmitri preferred a relationship that paid a clear price.
“I don’t want loyalty without a price. Luna wanted me to guarantee the safety of the country and came to Arcadia to fulfill the deal with them. What do you want in return for your loyalty?”
Attitude has changed.
From the moment the opponent bowed his head.
There was no reason to be respectful.
Even if the opponent was a mother elf, Roman Dmitri was a person who was used to being praised.
Mother Elf did not raise her head.
He knelt down, bowed his face, and raised his voice to speak his truth.
“There is only one thing we want. From the moment the flames of the fire brought the World Tree back to life, Arcadia got a chance to be revived. So please help us seize this opportunity. Even if a group of evil invades the world from beyond the dimension, if Roman Dmitri is firmly in his position, we will not be in danger.”
It was in the same context.
As Luna Kingdom said, the elves wanted to be guaranteed safety by giving their all.
“Those who threaten this world have no choice but to face Roman Dmitri. Be strong. The elven clan will help you both physically and mentally, so acquire a force that no one can match. If you promise me that one thing, this Gaiar will devote his life to Roman Dmitri.”
“I will be committed.”
“I will be committed.”
Everyone bowed their heads.
The Mother Elf represented all elves.
In a situation where the World Tree revived and the mother elves supported it, the ordinary elves took a stand as one.
Among them was Teresa.
It was a simple matter.
Swearing allegiance in the hope of safety was an all-too-familiar form of trading in the jungle.
said Roman Dmitry.
“I promise. In return for your loyalty, you will receive Dmitri’s protection from now on.”
elf clan.
It was the moment when they fully joined Dmitry.
* * *
Things have been sorted out.
I was about to leave the territory of the elves, but a belated guest came.
“God Gyro. Meet the hero of Luna Kingdom!”
thud.
It was a familiar sight.
As Mother Elf and Elves had shown, Gyro fell to his knees upon seeing Roman Dmitri.
“It is all because of my stupidity that the Luna Kingdom and the heroes have suffered. Even though I clearly told them to wait, they led their troops outside and lost all of the Luna Kingdom’s troops. A mistake made by one pathetic, stupid human being cost everyone dearly. thank you. Thank you very much. If the hero hadn’t saved us, Luna would have perished.”
It was a desperate cry.
Roman Dmitry.
Reclaimed Luna’s fortress and subdued the Orcs.
In the process of moving to the elves’ realm, I constantly remembered the moment I met them as I stepped on their corpses.
Luna’s hero.
I knew it as soon as I saw it.
Zyro expressed his feelings without thinking about the appearance of a man who showed a strong presence alone.
If it weren’t for Roman Dmitri, Luna would have been over.
Even though he shouted with a blood clot in his neck thinking that his mistake was all solved because of that, he was unable to convey all his gratitude.
I cried.
The tears flowing down his face represented Gyro’s sincerity.
“Please accept us. Even I, a humble person, will do anything for a hero if there is anything I can do. If you tell me to die, I will die. If you tell me to jump, I will throw myself off a cliff. The day that killed all Luna’s soldiers. A man named Gyro also died on the spot. From now on, not for personal feelings, but for Luna. And I will live for Roman Dmitri.”
after that.
Luna’s soldiers also knelt one after another.
Among them was Kayden, a familiar face.
“Please accept us!”
“From now on, I will live for Roman Dmitri!”
It was a funny situation.
Just a moment ago, the elves had sworn allegiance, and the same scene unfolded in front of them.
Gyro was a fool.
If he had been Dmitry’s man from the beginning, it would have been difficult for him to survive the responsibility of defeat.
but.
I didn’t ask you to take responsibility for it now.
At that time, Gyro was just foolish, but he did his best for Luna.
Since he was not in a position to take orders from Dmitri, there was no reason to punish him by bringing up his earlier work.
said Roman Dmitry.
“Kaden. What were the terms of our contract?”
The gaze was focused.
Cayden, who was shouting together among the people, said with a cautious face.
“… Instead of helping Luna, you pledge allegiance to Dmitri.”
“okay. Dmitry fulfilled the contract.”
People’s eyes widened.
That moment.
“Wake up. You are already Dmitri’s people.”
* * *
A few days later.
The Tribal Council concluded early.
The meeting was conducted without Dmitri in advance, but the two beings took control of the situation with blood vessels in their necks.
One of them was a gyro.
“This is a no-brainer! As Graxar charged with overwhelming force, Roman Dmitri managed to turn the tide with just 30 men. What can he gain from this barren land after he has done such great things? If we are beings who know grace, we must at least return our gratitude to him by swearing allegiance.”
Another was Teresa.
“I also agree with Zyro-nim. Roman Dmitri performed the miracle of not only defeating Graksar, but also reviving the World Tree. Mother Elf described her as a savior, and my thoughts as I watched the situation from the side were no different. Don’t you guys know too? What kind of existence is the World Tree? From the moment we saved the World Tree, we have an obligation to live for him.”
Both arguments were strong.
at last.
meanings were gathered.
In fact, even if they didn’t claim it, Roman Dmitri, who solved the crisis in Arcadia, was a person worth pledging allegiance to.
Other races except humans and elves.
Yetis, beasts, trolls, and others who survived the war all came together and decided to swear allegiance.
And I faced Roman Dmitri.
Looking down at the representatives of each tribe who swore allegiance, Roman Dmitri spoke of the future.
“Arcadia’s first priority is to survive on its own. Farming is carried out in the territory of the elves who have regained vitality, and the labor related to it will be shared by each race. Dmitri will help you before solving the food problem in Arcadia. Borrowing the power of the world tree, we will install a warp gate that directly connects Arcadia and Dmitri, and Arcadia can get what it wants in the form of providing labor beyond basic support.”
It was not blind support.
Roman Dmitry hoped to have an environment in which he could live by providing the foundation for Arcadia.
North Sea Ice Palace.
They were the same.
They created their own way of living in a land that everyone abandoned.
“Remember. If it does not have the independence to live on its own, Arcadia will eventually degenerate.”
“I will keep that in mind.”
With that the meeting was over.
really now
It was time to return to Dmitry.
next day.
Roman Dmitri led his troops to the endless mountains again, receiving cheers from many different races.
* * *
While crossing endless mountains.
Roman Dmitri received several calls from Dmitri.
[The situation in Odelia Lawless Zone is getting worse day by day. As the royal family to control the people disappears, those with power seize power and cause riots in each area of Odelia. In the meantime, I haven’t been able to move quickly because I’ve been dealing with the aftermath of the war, but I think special measures are needed before the situation in Odelia affects other countries greatly.] It was reported before
.
For the time being, I was watching Odelia’s situation, but it seemed that the information guild had reached its limit.
The Three Kingdoms of Southern Kronos.
Umberto Redford Frank wished to proceed with the meeting on this matter.
and next contact.
[As a result of investigating Isabel’s whereabouts, I found the last trace in Umberto Kingdom. I confirmed that the soldiers rearranged their weapons there and left somewhere, but I couldn’t find out more.]
Both of the previous two reports.
It was the part I ordered before leaving Dmitri.
But it was surprising.
I heard that Isabel was clearly moving to stop the conspiracy of the Cronus Empire, but why the hell was she found in the Kingdom of Umberto and not Cronus?
Sufficient research was needed for this as well.
Haomen, led by Lucas, had considerable power, but their information power was not absolute.
last contact.
This time, it was the report of the Knight Commander Jonathan, not Lucas.
[Two guests came from Valhalla. One is a man named Sanchez and the other is the Count of Bragan. Both of them came as guests from the Valhalla Empire, but they seem to be on different business.]
Sanchez.
Count of Bragan.
What they meant was clear.
Sanchez was a disciple of Morales and had visited the Duke of Vieto on the advice of Roman Dmitri.
In short, he was a key figure in the current rebel group. Conversely, the Count of Bragan was a man of the Emperor of Valhalla.
The Emperor of Valhalla did not have a good relationship with Roman Dmitri, but he unexpectedly sent someone.
There was a lot to do.
The situation many people are waiting for themselves.
Dmitry is.
No, the Salamander Continent needed Roman Dmitri.
* * *
Like the report of the Knight Commander Jonathan.
Count Bragan, who visited Dmitri, looked rather nervous.
“after. To be entrusted with such a mission?”
recent.
Valhalla was engulfed in a cloud of war.
The Duke of Vieto, who criticized the situation in Valhalla, and the Emperor of Valhalla, who did not allow compromise, had a fierce confrontation.
Past and present.
Things have changed a lot.
At that time, Roman Dmitri was in danger of being attacked by the Cronus Empire, but the current Roman Dmitri was the head of the Kingdom Union.
The fact that Dmitry Cairo, Hector Umberto Redford Frank, at once ordered by Roman Dmitri was a variable that Valhalla could not help but be wary of.
And that’s not all.
Sanchez has a relationship with Roman Dmitri.
Wasn’t he on Roman Dmitri’s side when Valhalla made the mistake of crossing the line?
For that reason, the Count of Bragan was given the order.
“Somehow, conciliate the heart of Roman Dmitri. At the very least, we must prevent him from siding with the Duke of Vieto.”
It was an order from the Marquis of Belfir.
It was a difficult task.
But it wasn’t that he didn’t have one.
Count Bragan was a master negotiator and was entrusted with full powers for this mission.
Because Roman Dmitri is also a person who lives in a world of power. I will not unconditionally reject Valhalla’s offer.
The world said that Duke Vieto’s rebellion might succeed, but those in power knew that wasn’t the case.
It was then.
“Roman Dmitry has arrived.”
It was the escort knight’s report.
got up from the seat
I was going to meet Roman Dmitri right away, but I heard an absurd sound.
“… I’m sorry, but I think I’ll have to wait a bit. As soon as I received a report that I had arrived, I asked for a meeting, but I was told that I couldn’t meet right now because I had a pre-arranged appointment.”
Moment.
His expression distorted.
There were only two guests who visited Dmitri.
himself and Sanchez.
Apparently, this negotiation ran into difficulties from the start.
