Chapter 542 The Strong Food (弱肉强食) (3)
Patrice panicked.
recent remark.
properly crossed the line.
At this place where an international conference is being held, Roman Dmitri made remarks that looked down on all the world’s leaders.
“How are you punishing me? Do you mean to turn the world government against the enemy?”
My eyes trembled.
World government is absolute.
If everyone does not follow the conclusions agreed at this meeting, the whole world will define the Korean Empire as an enemy and attack it.
That is why even the great powers did not ignore the will of the world government.
Rather, it was formed by enlisting people to create public opinion, but openly ignoring it was too dangerous.
Roman Dmitry was different.
Despite knowing the aftermath of the future, he faced the hostility that was focused on him.
“Do you know what I thought was the most fun part of getting to know this world? As society develops rapidly, it places too much importance on appearances. On the battlefield, it is natural to show no mercy to your enemies. However, even though the world has secured a justification and won the war, the whole process is finished, why the war had to be waged, why the enemies were treated so brutally, why there was no other peaceful way, and so on. That explanation does not originate from love for humanity. Until the war broke out, even though the hostile country was made to wither through methods such as economic sanctions, the blood and deaths in front of us are irritating, so we only react sensitively to what is visible on the outside.”
It was a contradiction.
Downfall due to economic sanctions Downfall due to war.
It was no different.
Whether dying by starvation or being stabbed to death, both were included in human cruelty in Roman Dmitry’s standard.
“Even before the cataclysmic outbreak, great powers dominated the world with ‘invisible cruelty’. At the words of the great powers, the weak countries had no choice but to shrink. War doesn’t really happen because of people’s eyes, but invisible cruelty will take away just as much. By the way. The world has changed since the apocalypse. As we got used to blood and death, we no longer needed tacit threats and turned into a world of war if necessary. This moment we live in now. It means that visible power is important.”
It was a change in perception.
There are still many obstacles left.
Twenty years is neither short nor extremely long, so for those who remember the world 20 years ago, many conditions were added until reaching the conclusion that it was war.
The difference is that there is a really high probability of war than in the past.
It is not a weapon like a nuclear bomb that completely destroys a country, but a human resource that ends the war called Hunter.
It didn’t seem like a big deal, but it was a big difference.
Just by simply raising their voices at each other, the modern society 20 years later has changed into a world that must accept war.
Roman Dmitry laughed.
“You asked me if I would turn the whole world into an enemy. yes that’s right If I conclude that I am wrong here, there is no reason for me, with my strength, to listen to a weak world government in a world of weak meat. President Patrice. Word-of-mouth threats do not work. The words spoken against me and the Korean Empire are not an invisible threat, but a real readiness to go to war.”
The atmosphere froze.
War.
It was a sensitive issue.
No, it was an issue that shouldn’t be brought up here.
Roman Dmitry never backed down with a smile, even though it was common sense to avoid war at all costs against the World Government.
“I will ask you one last time. Do you think I should accept whatever conclusions I draw here?”
* * *
Quaang!
“Such a cheeky bastard is going way too far!”
Markov jumped out of his seat and got up.
His flushed face expressed volcanic anger at Roman Dmitri.
“Roman Dmitry. Acknowledge that you are strong. Your record of killing SS-rank monsters in one blow can be argued to be the best in the world. But the people in this seat are the heads of countries around the world. Do you think you can handle all of us just because you are strong?”
Markov does not have the justification of Maronism.
It wasn’t that others encouraged him, but he just didn’t like Roman Dmitri.
Aren’t you cheeky?
No matter how strong Roman Dmitri is, Korea has not yet escaped the perception that it is a weak country.
In order not to turn the absolute majority into enemies, the appearance of Roman Dmitri, who stands up to his nose even if it is not enough to please Markov, stimulated Markov’s planting properly.
I had to trample it properly before it got any bigger.
Markov’s eyes glistened with murderous intent.
“everyone. Roman Dmitry and the Republic of Korea must pay for their crimes. see Even though the world government has come together, this insolent being who calls himself emperor is rather threatening us. What do you think will happen if these beings become powerful? In the meantime, the order of the world that we have barely built will collapse. please give me strength I will take the lead in Russia condemning Roman Dmitri.”
Opponent overlooked.
If you spit out threats, you would have thought the world government would step down.
Markov did not follow his intention.
I would gladly throw myself into the flames of war to break Roman Dmitri’s cocky nose.
“Roman Dmitry! You will go to war with everyone here from now on… … .”
“for a moment.”
It was a royal dragon.
He interrupted Markov and raised his voice with a ferocious face.
“When did I say I would side with the World Government? As I mentioned earlier, the royal dragon swore allegiance to His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry. If you want to oppose the Korean Empire, you will have to deal with China as well.”
And that wasn’t all.
John Harrison also added.
“Even as the United States, we have no choice but to raise the Korean Empire’s hand. Were we not helped in this cataclysm?”
support of the two great powers.
Things got complicated.
Even though Roman Dmitri crossed the line properly, China and the United States did not give up their link with the Korean Empire. It was a natural thing for Wang Wi-ryong.
I couldn’t dare to betray the Heavenly Demon. The United States knew from the moment it defended Roman Dmitri that it needed a clear position rather than an ambiguous attitude.
It was an absurd situation.
Markov was furious from head to toe.
At the moment when the previous order collapsed, he saw Patrice.
It was to ask for a side.
Russia was willing to go to war if Patrice and the rest of the world would help.
however.
“… .”
Patrice kept her mouth shut.
He seemed to be thinking about something with a complicated expression.
If this is the case.
There was no other way.
With no one on his side, Markov nervously kicked the chair.
Pak!
“Such assholes. Let’s see. You will definitely regret what happened today.”
Markov leaves the conference room.
Roman Dmitry let him go out.
* * *
Why was Patrice silent?
It was a complex matter.
‘The future of mankind is in danger if the entire world is caught up in the vortex of war right after the cataclysm ends.’
Reasons for following Maronism.
for the future of mankind.
He also committed many evil acts, such as inciting people like this time, but ultimately, the purpose of serving humanity did not change.
For him, war was an issue he could not readily accept.
It was actually just a verbal threat to force Roman Dmitri by enlisting the leaders of each country, and even if he pushed only this much, he knew that Roman Dmitri would take care of himself and withdraw with a white flag.
Of course, at first, he was prepared to go to war, but when he thought that he might start a war, he hesitated.
so that.
Roman Dmitri’s remarks caught my breath.
The fact that verbal threats did not work meant that he had grasped the true nature of Patrice in that short time.
Patrice was a herbivore.
He looked at Roman Dmitri with wavering eyes.
“… As a forewarning, President Markov of Russia is not like me. If you see him angry like that, he’s a person who might really go to war. Is there really any reason to do this? Even if it was a punishment, it would be a level that South Korea can handle, but is there a reason why it has to be like this?”
I didn’t understand.
just one foot.
You just need to take one step back.
Then it would be possible to produce a result that everyone is satisfied with, but Roman Dmitri never compromised.
said Roman Dmitry.
“The premise itself is wrong. No matter what choice I make in this fight, I have no reason to lose. That’s all. President Patrice says everyone has a way to win, but I don’t even want a precedent to back down. Even if this event turns into a war.”
Sigh.
got up from the seat
Roman Dmitry didn’t even make an effort to convince people.
“You don’t have to work so hard. whether there is a war or not. A decision will be made sooner or later.”
Roman Dmitry turning his steps.
When he came out, Wang Wi-ryong also left as if he had nothing to do with it anymore.
* * *
The place where Roman Dmitry left.
“Please make a wise choice.”
John Harrison got up right away.
Now, with only Patrice and those who sympathized with him remaining, the meeting room was tinged with deep silence for a while.
OK.
the president of Brazil asked.
“… What do you plan to do next?”
The person who brought everyone together was Patrice.
Not everyone will follow him unconditionally, but at least he can give some direction in this chaotic situation.
The problem was that Patrice did not dare to figure out what to do.
Roman Dmitry was completely uncontrolled and there was no other way than war to achieve Maronism’s aims.
“I’m going to cool off for a while.”
got up from the seat
Moving to a place where people’s eyes can’t reach, I immediately requested a communication with the Maronist religious leader.
I needed the wisdom of the gyoza.
Sebastian will tell you what to do for him in this stifling situation.
[Go to war.]
“Is there really no other way than war?”
[Didn’t you check it yourself? Roman Dmitry is a militant figure with no similar examples. When he descends into this world, Roman Dmitri’s existence will surely cause irreversible problems. Patrice. Now is a golden opportunity. I don’t know how Roman Dmitri roasted China and the United States, but if you have the ability to conciliate the two great powers from the early stage of forming forces, you don’t know how much you will expand in the future. Of course I know what you’re worried about. As soon as the cataclysm is over, if the whole world is caught up in the vortex of war, many people will die. However, for the ultimate goal of human survival, there are inevitable sacrifices.]
“Even so… .”
[Patris! Don’t be weak! We are faced not with the question of saving more people, but with the question of whether or not the whole of humanity survives. There is nothing more important than this for us, who are about to approach ‘Advent’.]
It was the right thing to say.
Patrice’s expression turned violent.
At first, there was some hesitation.
However, when I listened to Sebastian’s words, I couldn’t think of a picture of him and Roman Dmitri coexisting.
“All right. I will make a decision for him.”
Took.
Communication was cut off.
The hesitation is gone.
I returned to my seat and tried to express my thoughts, but the meeting room was turned upside down for not too long.
Brazilian president.
he said with a worried face.
“A little while ago, Russia declared war and attacked the Republic of Korea. It seems that President Markov has already completed all preparations to attack the Republic of Korea before attending the international conference.”
“… ?!”
I opened my eyes.
Clash between Russia and Korea!
The situation had already gotten out of Patrice’s control.
