Chapter 573 The Shocking Truth (2)
The past 20 years.
Sebastian believed in himself.
At first, there were times when even he doubted the Bible, but after his faith became firm, he did not waver even when people accused him of being a cult.
It was clear that Maron Dmitry existed. Every time I reflected on the contents of the Bible, I thought that people’s doubts were trials that I had to bear.
believed
I only looked at the truth.
I thought it was a penance and swallowed the disgust of reality.
20 years ago, if you tried to convince people somehow, now you have eliminated the beings who deny Maron Dmitri one by one.
It was okay not to believe.
However, those who openly distrusted it judged that it was a hindrance to the future of mankind, and Sebastian did not hesitate to get blood on his hands.
At first, the death of one or two brought so much pain that it lasted for days and nights, but as it increased to dozens and hundreds, even the death of others was accepted as a kind of sacrifice.
Ignorance is a sin.
Unbelief is also a sin.
Punishing sinners, Sebastian took one step at a time on the path of penance.
And he thought he had finally reached the heights, but the reality in front of him forced the ‘terrible truth’ on him.
“… .”
I raised my head.
Roman Dmitri was looking down at him.
Beyond his cold eyes, the people who had been discussing the future with him apparently an hour ago showed hostile gazes.
as if they were victims. They took full responsibility.
if.
If you were really wrong like their eyes.
If you didn’t know Roman Dmitri, not Maron Dmitri.
What about the dedication of the past 20 years?
In the meantime, all the evil deeds have endured contradictions under the name of salvation, but if the truth is revealed that in fact it is nothing, he is just a wicked person.
A huge crash occurred in my head.
Henry Albert, the author of the Bible, spoke the truth and proved that Roman Dmitry was the founding emperor of the Dmitry Empire.
The situation was already clear, but I couldn’t fully accept it.
It is to deny oneself.
I had to deny my past life.
It wasn’t a problem I could accept just because I knew it was wrong, it was a reality I could never handle.
‘no.’
he was right
Not wrong.
Only then could he live as a human being.
Only then could he exist as a human being.
‘I’m not wrong.’
Mind collapsed.
Rather, my mind became clearer.
Sebastian jumped out of his seat and stood up, expressing strong confidence in himself.
“This is all lies. It’s all lies!”
Denial with evil.
It was the only way he would survive.
* * *
The definition of surviving is not just surviving.
In order to prove that his life was not wrong, Sebastian turned away from the truth he had proven himself.
“Dimensional movement magic is not yet complete. It means that the soul that permeates the medium may not be the real ‘Henry Albert’, but something prepared by Roman Dmitri. Barely this is enough to admit that Roman Dmitry is the main character of the Bible. Maron Dmitri-sama is not like that!”
“But didn’t you lead this whole process? That is a contradiction.”
was the prime minister of Spain.
Sebastian gave a ferocious look.
It was a very reasonable question, but he expressed his madness and refused to accept reality.
“okay. As you said, I led this experiment, but if you think about it, there are many strange things. Why did Roman Dmitri attend even though he knew that this was a trap prepared for him? If Maron Dmitri’s existence is proven, the Korean Empire would be in jeopardy, but he watched the situation as if he had some kind of ‘confidence’. It’s been wrong ever since. He had already manipulated the situation and made a plan to condemn the Maron Church and watched our situation in a cowardly and despicable way.”
spit out contradictions
He continued without interruption.
“What has happened to the world since Roman Dmitri appeared? As a result, the Korean Empire was divided internally, and many people died in order for Roman Dmitri to ascend to the throne. Clearly he had a chance to save a precious life, but Roman Dmitri didn’t. The war with Russia is no different. If Roman Dmitri was really the ‘Emperor of Dmitry’s Empire’, he could have avoided war with Russia just by revealing the truth. Even though he knew that the entire world, starting with Maronism, longed for his existence, he chose to slaughter without telling the truth.”
increasingly.
The eyes became clear.
It seemed that what he said was right.
The more he repeated the words, the more he could not understand Roman Dmitri’s actions.
“That’s why I can’t admit it. Dmitri’s successors are the hope of mankind, and even people who are ignorant of the world cannot be unaware of the existence of the emperor of the Dmitri Empire. But why! Did Roman Dmitri stand by the murder? Why did you incite the riot? The reason is that he is not the main character of the Bible. In the Bible, Maron Dmitri is a hero who saved mankind and made all the sacrifices himself. Is it really true that such a noble being is the same person as Roman Dmitry? Is that being who casually kills really the hero the Bible says?”
I fooled myself.
Incited people.
I believed that a plausible lie was better than a nonsensical truth.
The existence he has been imagining is never a villain like Roman Dmitri.
I was no longer afraid.
This is also God’s trial.
When he confirmed that Roman Dmitri was the incarnation of the devil, from then on, he spoke his truth with unwavering eyes.
“Roman Dmitry! Answer me. What is your intention? What is your goal by deceiving us all?”
Right now at this moment.
Sebastian considered himself justice.
* * *
The gaze was focused.
People’s eyes twinkled.
For people who are confused between truth and lies, Roman Dmitri said to tell the truth clearly.
It was fun.
It was a moment of loss of personality.
Sebastian had lost something that supported him.
Looking at him, Roman Dmitri said coldly.
“The war of words proving that I am who I am is meaningless. But if everybody wants the truth, I’ll ask you one thing. that which the bible speaks of. Has he ever promised to save ‘humanity’ even once?”
“What is that… .”
“You are asking the truth. What kind of person was I in the biography of Emperor Dmitry you read? Did you blindly claim to be good?”
Moment.
Eyes flickered.
Emperor Dmitry never promised to save humanity, nor was he blindly following good.
If he believes that he is right, he is a being who will push forward even if he is criticized for being evil.
As a result, because he saved the world, Sebastian interpreted it as the great meaning of saving mankind.
I’m speechless.
I couldn’t answer anything.
I knew that if I spit out the truth, the words of Roman Dmitri would give strength.
“No matter what you expect, the fact that I am the emperor of Dmitri’s empire doesn’t change. Why didn’t you tell me the truth? It is because the ‘existence of the Bible’ you interpreted is not me. I never once promised to save this world. There is no reason for me to take responsibility for those who believe in Maronism. But you created virtual beings and demanded blind devotion to Me. I wanted to save the world unconditionally for no reason. Sebastian. Why should I reveal the truth? Why should I live up to expectations I didn’t intend for myself?”
It was a cruel reality.
Roman Dmitry overwhelms people.
“I went my own way, as always. I accepted those who believed in me and followed me, and you also had a chance to remain my people like the empire of Dmitri. However, you fell into an imaginary existence and rejected the Korean Empire. The Korean Empire had a clear justification for everything, but you showed your malice without trying to confirm the truth. That’s the truth. As the emperor of Dmitry and the emperor of the Korean Empire, I killed countless people. I have never advocated justice, and I am not saying the contradiction of claiming malice as justice like you do, but I accepted the reality even though I knew that everything I did was ‘evil’ to someone. I did not deceive myself that it was justice, even if there was blood on my hands, because I want my people to enjoy complete peace.”
don’t believe
It didn’t matter.
Even those watching this situation were left to their judgment rather than presenting clear evidence.
“There may have been sufficient justification for your choice 20 years ago, but it is different now. Sebastian. open your eyes Face reality. I am the emperor of Dmitri’s empire, but I am not the existence you so longed for.”
I looked away.
heads of state.
He looked at them in shock and said.
“From now on, I will give you one last chance. I was willing to attend even though I knew that this was an event that threatened my life. So choose. To remain the enemy who entrapped me, or to swear allegiance to Roman Dmitri. A year after the announcement of the choice, there is no more opportunity.”
* * *
Ultimatum.
Heads of state looked at each other.
Because this place was prepared by Sebastian’s will, people could not hastily support Roman Dmitri.
Henry Albert.
he told the truth
Still, the choice was not an easy one.
It was then.
Wang Weilong said.
“From the beginning, the truth didn’t matter. Whether or not His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry is a biblical hero, that royal dragon intends to follow what he believes. I will devote myself to the Korean Empire in the future. If it’s His Majesty’s will, I’ll gladly jump into it, even if there’s a pit of fire waiting in front of me.”
“The same goes for America. We knew this was a trap prepared by the Maronists, but the United States decided that following His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry was the right thing for humanity. I will also swear allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor.”
It was John Harrison.
two giants.
They had already made a decision.
By mentioning it once again, it proved that the relationship with the Korean Empire was solid.
The situation has been reversed.
One of the people who looked at each other spoke first.
“Your Majesty, Emperor Roman Dmitry! The reason why Spain couldn’t make a decision was because the fate of the country was determined by this one choice. But not now. Even if Emperor Roman Dmitry does evil, if it is for the sake of those who believe in him, I will gladly obey. Please accept us.”
“I will also swear allegiance to Italy. Sebastian insisted on eradicating the Korean Empire through this meeting, but I think Henry Albert’s testimony proves the existence of His Majesty Emperor Roman Dmitry.”
“Argentina too… . “
England too… .”
Spain was the catalyst.
In a situation where allegiance was pledged for the first time, except for countries that had already expressed their positions, the leaders of each country knew that there was no chance until later.
Since then, they have sworn allegiance.
As a leader who leads a country, he threw away his pride and raised his voice that he would live for the Korean Empire in the future.
The trend has turned.
The majority followed the Korean Empire.
Those who openly followed Sebastian did not know how to react to the rapidly changing situation.
‘… Damn it.’
Especially Patrice.
He was in great confusion.
Having lived as Sebastian’s trumpeter, he couldn’t hastily say that he followed Roman Dmitri even if the truth was revealed.
However, sticking to that position was also not the answer.
Sebastian said that this experiment was a golden opportunity to prove the existence of Maron Dmitri, and because he believed in his plan, he took the lead in gathering all the heads of state.
that belief.
crashed down
Apart from the failure of the plan, disbelief arose that Sebastian’s words might not necessarily be true.
blind faith.
A bit of disbelief.
Things have changed.
The disbelief had created a crack in my heart and I could no longer trust blindly.
‘The trend has already turned. Now that the author of the Bible has proven the existence of Emperor Roman Dmitry, no one will believe in Maronism, no matter what Sebastian says. Maronism, which led mankind, is now over.’
The truth was clear.
Henry Albert’s testimony.
If that was the only verifiable fact, it was clear that Roman Dmitri was the hope of mankind.
Sebastian’s eyes met.
Patrice tried to hold on to the rope of survival while trying to avoid looking at those eager eyes.
“France too… .”
“Until there.”
I cut off my words.
Roman Dmitri looked at Patrice and said coldly.
“France received the will of Maronism and led this event. They plotted a trap, and I hoped for a ruinous ending by attending this event. Your choice has already been decided at that time. Countries that actively participated in this plan, including Patrice, will be defined as ‘enemies threatening the Korean Empire’ along with Maronism.”
at that point.
Patrice’s heart sank.
