I Don’t Need a Guillotine for My Revolution - Chapter 233

Episode 233 Temple of the Abyss – Waves of Despair (2)

The plain below the hill where the gate was built.

The thick purple fog has noticeably receded thanks to the Central Continent’s atmosphere flowing from the gate connected to Eris’ presence.

And our allied forces were facing off against an army of drones that filled the plains.

The Chasseurs’ report is true.

Because there are seemingly endless 1 million drones lined up in a row, motionless.

Even without looking around, you can feel in the air that all the soldiers were horrified by the daunting and terrifying sight.

I glanced at the scene and headed to the prepared conference room.

The Abyss Corporation’s peace negotiation proposal came at a time when we had secured a bridgehead to the central continent by playing a prank on the gate we had built and making it impossible to close.

It was a completely unexpected situation, and it was obvious that there was something planned, but I couldn’t refuse it.

If they kick it out without listening to the peace negotiations they first proposed, the fear of those dispirited soldiers will immediately turn into resentment toward the leadership.

Shortly after many of the Allied Powers’ unique leaders were in place.

We were able to face the devil who came as their envoy.

How annoying is it that you’re wearing clothes that look strangely like feathers?

Reminds me of a pigeon demon somewhere.

While I was thinking, the devil opened his mouth and greeted me in a pretensely noble manner.

“It’s called Stolas from Abyss Corporation ‘Slos’. “It is an honor to meet the famous members of the Continental Allied Forces.”

I never thought I’d hear something like that from the devil’s mouth.

I can’t help but laugh.

“I came to convey the opinion of Paimon, commander of the Abyss Corporation drone army.”

Paimon, not Bael from the Abyss Corporation?

“He must have come again to deceive with his wicked tongue. “Tell me.”

Henry I did not hide his discomfort, but Stolas responded with a smile.

“Oh, how can you whisper deception to His Majesty, the King of Krafte, the most powerful military nation in mankind?”

Henry I narrowed his eyes and answered.

“If this army had been my army and not the Allied Forces, you would have had to worry about whether you would be able to return home safely.”

“I am of the same opinion, King of Krafte! “I’m itching to destroy that dastardly devil’s face!”

When Crocs came forward, Stolas raised his hands as if he was in trouble.

“Oh, that was rude. Well, let me briefly give you our proposal. “We want peace with the Central Continent countries.”

“Huh.”

“Now come peace….”

“Really by bringing such troops?”

First of all, they said it was a peace negotiation, but everyone started to get upset at the words that they had never expected to come out of their mouths.

Stolas was leisurely watching the commotion spread among us, and eventually I spoke first.

“What are the conditions?”

They can’t just ignore the war, and even if they actually want peace, the conditions are the problem.

Stolas said with a smile.

“Allied forces, please withdraw from the Abyss Corporation. We just need one. “The Gate of Franzia and the surrounding area connected to the Abyss Corporation will be used as the settlement area.”

“under.”

Even. I will rent the land.

Are you just borrowing words? Just hand over the entire gate leading to the Central Continent?

“You are talking crazy. How much blood we shed here, let us see the result. Even part of Francia’s territory?”

A sharp voice suddenly came out.

However, Stolas answered with a relaxed smile on his face.

“Then we will not only prevent all Allied countries from leaving this land safely through the gate, but we will also guarantee peace.”

“This is truly bullshit that isn’t even worth thinking about.”

When I responded, Stolas spoke, looking at the leadership of another country, not at me.

“This offer is not necessarily made to the entire Allied Powers. The Abyss Corporation is willing to accept ceasefires with individual countries.”

Are these out in the open?

“Think about it. Is this war started by the Abyss Corporation? no. Franzia caused it. “We called for a holy war through groundless propaganda and fabrications that we were threatening the central continent.”

“What should we do now?…”

“Countless human armies fell bleeding on this land. It’s sad, and I understand your indignation. But at the same time, we also lost many brothers. It’s sad for everyone, but do we really have to keep doing this? Actually, most of the countries here have nothing to do with the Eastern Empire, do they? “Only Francia insisted on this war.”

There is only silence in the conference room.

“We are not asking you for peace because we are powerless. We have enough troops. A swarm of drones right in front of you. Well, if you are confident that you will win a fight against us, I won’t stop you, but what would you gain by continuing to fight an avoidable war? Blood of soldiers? “The family’s grief?”

under.

I had to struggle to suppress the feeling of wanting to pull out my sword right away.

It is a peace negotiation envoy in name.

It might be better if this was the Frangian army’s sole military camp, but since it is a multi-national union, if I cut it down as I want, the problem will increase.

Stolas spread his arms and smiled.

“Contrary to your misconception, we are also a country with a common language that has maintained a positive business relationship with the Central Continent for a long time. We know that we can work together without necessarily stoking resentment and hatred in this way. And we know that you can think rationally like us.”

Stolas slowly turned his gaze

towards me, Eris, and Lord Eramo, who was leading the survivors of the Holy Knights, and added with a smile:

“Well, except for a few who are driven by excessive hatred or fanaticism.”

“Shut up devil!”

Eramo couldn’t hold back and immediately drew his sword, but stopped at my hand gesture.

I looked around at the faces of all the leaders present.

There is no need to go far.

Christine.

Eris.

Crocs.

Heinrich I.

Jill von Leonhardt.

They are all people with a firm hostility towards the Abyss Corporation.

The commanders under your command may be a little concerned, but if they have a clear focus, they can fight no matter what.

“You damn devil laborer just sat there talking nonsense! The door belongs to our magic tower! “Why are you telling me to give you our treasure?”

…even the magic tower.

I said with a laugh.

“I’m sorry, but I cannot accept such a ridiculous proposal.”

“Oh. There is no need to make a decision too hastily. “After all, Paimon, who has a lot of time and is generous, has the patience to wait for your suffering.”

“There is no need for that. Go tell Paimon. “Get ready for battle.”

“ha ha ha. As expected, the Marquis de Lafayette. You are merciless towards demons. “Then I’ll just leave.”

Get the hell out of here, you damn devil. It’s annoying.

Why waste time with useless suggestions…

The moment I thought that, Stolas added with a smile.

“But you will want to negotiate again soon. …I’ll see you again in three days.”

As soon as Stolas finished speaking, he turned into an owl and flew into the sky.

What bullshit?

But I thought that way for a moment.

“Huh, really. “I don’t know why you came.”

“How can you know what the devils are thinking?”

As Stolas retreated and the leadership was chatting with empty smiles, not long after, Giselle Darby came in urgently.

“excuse me! “I have an urgent matter to report to you!”

“Colonel Darby, what’s going on?”

As everyone’s attention focused, Giselle Darby swallowed dry saliva and answered.

“…Soldiers are simultaneously appealing for ‘dreams.’”

what?

* * *

Because it was so sudden, it took some time to understand the situation.

However, once the situation was fully understood, the Allied leadership could no longer laugh off the devil’s ridiculous proposal.

-But you will want to negotiate again soon. …I’ll see you again in three days.

Stolas, that damn devil.

Was this what the messenger sent by Paimon meant?

Almost all soldiers of the Allied Forces began dreaming at the same time.

A dream that says this is a fight that doesn’t need to be fought and that even demons want peace.

Succubi appear in the dreams of soldiers and cry out that this kind of war must stop now.

The Abyss Corporation is just a country with a different language and a different race, and has lived in small interactions with the Central Continent for a long time.

They did not want to incite resentment and hatred, and said that the war with the Eastern Empire was simply triggered by a conflict that had continued for a long time in the Far East, and that they had no intention of antagonizing the Central Continent.

Even at this very moment, Paimon is confronting the plains with countless drones showing off.

It warns them that they have enough power to destroy us all –

while at the same time freezing them all and not attacking them, whispering in the dreams of our soldiers that they do not want any more blood and are waiting for an answer to the peace negotiations. .

This war is not a crusade against the threat of humanity, but a war that was simply caused by Franzia inciting the continent.

So, do not shed any more blood for the war decided by the King and Council and leave this island in peace.

They appear in the form of a beautiful woman, a lover left behind in their hometown, or a family member, pleading as if pleading.

At least the leadership understands that this is nonsense.

We can clearly decide that we must confront our demons here and now.

However, this is not the case for soldiers on the front lines.

The advance team had already shed a lot of blood and lost many comrades.

No matter how many times they deal with it, they neither tire nor give in, and the fear of the overwhelming drone army is engraved in their minds.

And many of the main Allied forces that had just arrived from the continent were here simply at the behest of their country or superiors.

Whispers burrow into them like snakes, telling them that they do not want to fight and that the war the king wants will only lead to their death.

Risking death, he set foot on the isolated island of devils and fought over and over again, strengthening his resolve, but the time of his life is fading away so easily.

Cunningly and wickedly.

In the minds of the Allied soldiers, the perception that this was in fact not a crusade to protect humanity, but a war waged at the instigation of Franzia.

If you mistakenly believe that this is an unnecessary war, then you shift the blame to Franzia.

Once you convince yourself that the countless drones lurking in front of you are staying still because they really want peace.

At least he would be able to safely return home to his family from this hellish island.

It didn’t take long for such false hopes to erode the soldiers and for their morale to plummet to the bottom.

Three days, Stolas said.

After only two days, the leaders of each country requested to seriously discuss peace negotiations.
