Chapter 428 Battle for Dmitri (4)
Ares’ Betrayal.
It was fatal.
As the gates collapsed and the enemies rushed in, Rodwell Dmitri confronted them in fierce boiling flames.
It was an overwhelming presence.
He showed a formidable presence as if he would not let any enemies go, but as time passed, Rodwell Demitri was forced to face his limits.
pod.
Roaring.
blown the head
The flames spread and wiped out the surrounding area, but the enemies filling the space immediately did not allow them to breathe.
It couldn’t have ended like this.
In the war against Kronos, which Roman Dmitry had overcome with his personal abilities, he did not want to hold his ankles this time.
have to endure
If time permits, Luna Kingdom will arrive.
The flames swirling around Rodwell Dimitri wiped out the soldiers rushing forward.
Roaring.
It was a melee.
I forgot my own existence.
Instead of instinctively slashing and dodging, and calculating in my head, I became a beast and rampaged relentlessly.
The eyes of the soldiers of the Cronus Empire were young with fear.
They were attacking because they were forced out, but Rodwell Demitri was already perceived as a demon to them.
It was then.
A voice so familiar to Rodwell Dmitri’s keen senses came.
“Help Rodwell Dmitri! If the castle gate collapses, it’s over! Group 1 follows me and focuses on supporting fire!”
Quaang!
Roaring.
The magic worked.
I turned my head and checked the top of the wall, and Flora Lawrence, who was on the left side of the wall, led some troops to support the gate.
I reported to the superiors and she moved.
After fixing the defense system of the left wall, he appealed his opinion, saying that he needed help to prevent the gate from being breached.
It was something that hadn’t been discussed beforehand.
As the knights of Kronos made a surprise attack on Rodwell Demitri, the wind blew up on the walls.
puck.
The arrow pierced the forehead.
It was Flora Lawrence.
She kept an eye on Rodwell Dmitri and reacted quickly to the situation to keep him from collapsing.
A strange feeling arose.
You may think it was a natural step to win the war, but I felt grateful that I knew my situation even in such a chaotic and intertwined situation.
I looked away.
Now it was my turn to focus on the reality in front of me.
Rodwell Dmitri gnashed his teeth and rushed in, desperately struggling in a space engulfed in blood and flames.
at last.
That’s how the war was won.
And as the price of victory, Rodwell Dmitri, who was seriously injured, was immediately transferred to a hospital bed.
* * *
There was a flip side to the glorious victory.
The injured, including Rodwell Dmitri, were moved to hospital beds, and the number was so large that it was not enough to fill several buildings.
Even then, Rodwell Dimitri was in very bad shape.
As he fought while raising his limits, his vitality was greatly weakened due to the aftereffects of wounds sustained throughout his body.
I couldn’t get up for a while.
a few days after that.
Rodwell Dmitri, who barely came to his senses, faced his mother, who was crying as she looked at him.
‘… What an ugly son.’
Western Front.
I lost my eye there.
He became stronger at the sight of his mother, who was in pain while looking at him, and vowed not to give him such pain.
But it didn’t feel like it.
The enemy Dmitri faced was too strong, and he couldn’t do anything without risking his life as he was not as strong as Roman Dmitri.
I stroked my mother’s hair.
I couldn’t promise that something like this would never happen again, so it was best to accept her sorrow.
But for a few days after that.
Rodwell Dmitri heard strange things.
When people came to visit the hospital, there was a common presence that they mentioned as if they had promised.
The first was Knight Commander Jonathan.
“Brother Rodwell. I almost got into trouble. We don’t know what might have happened to you, if Flora Lawrence hadn’t been quick to assess the situation and provide adequate support. Next time, don’t overdo it like this time.”
Only then did I know
Flora Lawrence contacted the commanders to support her and strongly insisted on supporting her.
Ultimately, it was an appropriate decision.
Because the defensive system of the left wall was firmly established and the gate was supported, the Dmitry Wall did not collapse even after experiencing the variable of Ares.
and second.
His father was Romero Dmitri.
“The Lawrence family has sent various herbs for your treatment. They are very grateful people. I heard that Flora Lawrence went around and found it with difficulty, but you should say thank you later.”
Until then, I didn’t feel anything strange.
but the third.
At the words of the therapist who came to check the wound, Rodwell Dmitri realized a commonality.
“Is Flora not here today? In the meantime, Flora’s hardships were not the only one. He came to visit us every day, checked the wounds, and if he wanted something a little strange, he would stir-fry them. But thanks to that, I was able to recover quickly. Cham Flora is as pretty as her face, so she often brought food for the therapists.”
while you can’t come to your senses.
Nearby was Flora Lawrence.
I had a strange feeling.
It gave me an opportunity to think about her existence once again, but I did not accept her rationally.
Flora Lawrence was obviously Roman Dmitri’s marriage partner.
Even if the relationship was ruined by breaking off the marriage, the aristocratic society would not think of it as something that never happened.
A relationship that can’t even start.
That was the reality of Rodwell Dmitri and Flora Lawrence.
And time passes.
When Rihanna Dmitri mentioned marriage.
Much to my dismay, the first person that came to Rodwell Dmitri’s mind was Flora Lawrence.
* * *
The human heart needs a trigger.
The moment he realized he had a crush on Flora Lawrence, Rodwell Dmitry was thrown into great confusion.
‘I had a heart I shouldn’t have.’
breakup of marriage.
In the label, which is bound to be a problem in the aristocratic society, the partner to break off the marriage was Roman Dmitri, his older brother and the emperor of the Dmitri Empire.
His relationship with Flora Lawrence had a clear future.
People would gossip about it, and perhaps immoral stories would circulate that would even question the reason for the breakup.
I didn’t want to criticize them.
Even if it were the person himself, the story of his younger brother accepting his older brother’s ex-wife wouldn’t be very pleasant.
thought back
How could I have such a heart?
Come to think of it, my relationship with Flora Lawrence didn’t happen overnight.
Together with her on the western front of Cairo, he had a successful record of blocking the Cronus Empire, and after that, they fought several wars and continued their relationship.
We accepted each other little by little.
As they worked together on the battlefield, they unwittingly admitted that they were not too bad people.
It was a relationship that lasted for years.
When Rodwell Dmitri lost his eye, Flora Lawrence stopped the choice, and when he collapsed while blocking the castle gate, she took care of her by guarding her bed.
Perhaps due to the prejudice of breaking up marriage, the two of them were not aware of each other’s existence.
If Roman Dmitri hadn’t stepped forward, an arranged marriage would have talked about the relationship between the two from the beginning, but when the intertwined relationship returned to its place, the relationship between them was not the same as before.
acknowledged the reality.
if.
really if
When it came to being with someone, Rodwell Dmitry wanted Flora Lawrence by his side.
As was the case on the Cairo Western Front.
As in the all-out war with the Kronos Empire.
There was a kind of certainty that no matter what problems arose, if she was by her side, they wouldn’t be a problem.
I thought about it all night.
It was a relationship that no one would welcome, and Flora Lawrence, the person involved, did not know what she was thinking.
It was a really funny situation. The fact that you are so serious alone in a relationship that is nothing.
late evening.
Rodwell Dmitry moved on.
If he knew his true feelings, he could no longer turn a blind eye.
At least in order to accept new possibilities in the future, he visited his brother and told his true feelings.
and.
To him, Roman Dmitry said:
“At one time I was called Dmitry’s jerk. I did all sorts of bad things, but the people who accepted the new me didn’t judge me based on their prejudice. Rodwell. Just like I lived through a bad past, they are all in the past. Even Dmitri’s nickname as a jerk and my past when we broke up.”
I saw Rodwell.
With calm eyes, he put strength into his choice.
“If you are asking what I mean, I trust you. Do what you want yourself to do. No matter what I choose, no matter what people say, Rodwell Dmitri is my brother.”
that day.
Rodwell Dmitri accepted his sincerity.
* * *
It was embarrassing.
I expected Flora Lawrence, but when I actually heard the name, Rihanna Dmitri couldn’t react too quickly.
‘I hoped… … .’
In fact, there was a certain amount of notice.
I didn’t think their relationship had progressed, but I felt strange to see Rodwell Dmitri so attentively taken care of while he couldn’t come to his senses.
It was more than a comradeship feeling.
Perhaps they seemed unaware of their own feelings, but it was seen from the perspective of the third person that it was not serious.
understood.
That the complicated situation does not allow the reality for each other to accept the relationship.
said Rihanna Dmitri.
“Are you thinking of marrying Flora?”
“… It’s just my one-sided feeling. After hearing my mother’s words, I went to my brother to clarify my feelings, and then I went to Flora Lawrence. She said this. As everyone knows, Dmitri and Lawrence have fallen apart once due to the issue of breaking up their marriage to mention their marriage, and it is impossible to mention their relationship hastily now. If my mother hadn’t told me about marriage, I wouldn’t have known how I felt. I don’t mean to talk about marriage with the Lawrence family right away, but I need time to settle my feelings. Whether it will be more of a relationship than it is now, or whether it will remain as a colleague as it is now.”
Flora’s position was an outright refusal.
Rodwell and Flora.
Both were still in their infancy.
What Rodwell was trying to say now was that we needed plenty of time to solidify this relationship.
Rihanna Dmitri stared into her son’s face.
I had to refuse.
Dmitri’s Empire’s status People’s reputation Considering the complex issues, this was an unacceptable problem.
but.
she knew too
The fact that Flora Lawrence did a lot for Rodwell Dmitry for what she was like on the battlefield.
If you think about it, Flora was the most ideal companion that Rihanna Dmitri could have hoped for.
No matter what happened in Arcadia, it seemed that Flora would be able to overcome it.
I thought about it for a while.
After much thought, Rihanna Dmitri spoke in a calm voice.
“Lawrence is a founding contributor to the Dmitry Empire. No matter what happened in the past, forging a relationship with Lawrence as an in-law is something to be happy about. But Rodwell. Since it was a relationship that had gone awry once, Lawrence had to be very careful about the relationship. I heard that Flora Lawrence was included in the trip to Arcadia this time. 2 years. In it, clearly organize your relationship with Flora and tell me your decision. If you agree with Flora, I will gladly bless your son’s future, but on the contrary, if your heart doesn’t work at that time, you will have to follow my will and take time to get to know a new relationship. Do you agree with this mother?”
took a step back
If that’s what your son wants.
At least I wanted to give it a chance.
No matter how the relationship with Lawrence, which started with a breakup, ended, I had no intention of forcing my son’s heart.
to know that heart.
Rodwell Dmitri said in a heartfelt voice.
“… Thank you mother.”

That time.
capital of Cairo.
Just as the war was centered around Rodwell Dmitry, Lauren Dmitri also received people’s attention.
but.
Lauren Dmitri’s situation was completely different.
“We will not discuss the topic of marriage until Lauren Dmitri graduates from the academy.”
This was the position of the Dmitry family.
That naturally drew attention to Rodwell Dmitri, but not everyone acted naively like everyone else did.
Lauren Dmitri’s marital problems are not discussed until graduation.
If so, why not get married after graduating from the academy after preempting it?
People moved quickly.
and among them.
There was also a man who turned his life around with Dmitri.
‘If only we could make Lauren a member of our family. There is no better situation than this.’
I laughed just thinking about it.
he is.
There was a way to gain an edge over others.
It was then.
smart.
“May I go inside, Professor?”
“Come in.”
The door is open.
And Lauren Dmitry walking inside.
As soon as he saw his face, Henry Albert, a professor at the Cairo Royal Academy, smiled.
“So our pretty Lauren is here.”
Abuse of power.
Henry Albert made active use of his position.
