I’m Not That Kind of Talent - Chapter 146
146. plaudite!(5)
“Why would I tell this dangerous story openly? Are you sad that you will die soon? “It can’t be.”
Why did I insist that I would move in this situation?
The duke’s head must be complicated by the dizzying situation. One of the few moments when the duke’s judgment was short-lived.
Was it really a coincidence that he moved at that moment?
“I was sending hints to the Duke all along.”
– ….
“I left a successor.”
bang! The sound of a desk being struck was heard from beyond the communicator.
Daniel added, giggling like a child who succeeded in a prank.
“I handed over all the knowledge, including the remarks I made earlier. “Even though time was tight, the extremely loving and bright child absorbed it in an instant.”
– ….
“This will not lead to personal anger towards the emperor, but it will continue the anger from ‘unfairness.’”
won
The revolutionary army’s core ideology is ‘creating a world where everyone is equal.’ In the sense that it is for the majority, it would be the same as already gaining the support of the majority. Who would reject an ideology for their own sake? I wouldn’t know if they were drawn to the group and gathered together.
Paul: Since the importance of education was emphasized to the child, this ideology will continue unabated even when the child becomes the leader. In the end, ‘anger’ will continue as long as the unfairness of the ‘class system’ does not disappear.
– …You used my troops to cut out the cancerous mass inside the revolutionary army.
“Didn’t you use my troops to put pressure on the emperor before? “Did they use the emperor to keep the revolutionary army in check?”
He shrugged, mentioning an incident where Saerin once incited one of the leaders of the revolutionary army to lose 1/9 of its strength.
From a distance, those who gathered in anger against the emperor are no different from the cancer of the revolutionary army. As the first leader of the revolutionary army, I have to sort this out for future leaders.
In the end, half of the troops that Daniel brought out committed embezzlement and corruption, such as stealing and selling self-made bombs from within the revolutionary army, or were buried in the goal of killing the emperor, ignoring even the words of the leader and trying to pressure them again. This means it was a lump.
“And His Excellency the Duke was also an obstacle blocking the revolutionary army’s path forward.”
– I understand that you are trying to cut off the leash that is tied to me with this, but… do you think that if I take your life, you will let the rest go? And those with dangerous ideas? That’s foolish.
“Why do you think I came to the point of death, even leaving a successor?”
The premise is wrong.
Daniel did not come here by creating a successor and sacrificing his life just to remove the cancerous lump.
– What is that…
– This is an urgent report from the duke!
“Oh, I guess the news has finally arrived.”
Before I died, I wanted to see the Duke’s reaction and die, but thanks to this, my small wish came true.
You can hear the rustling sound of paper unfolding. Soon, an exasperated shout came out through the communication box.
– Daniel!!!!!
“Looking at the reaction, it looks like we did the right thing.”
Why did Daniel come here?
It was to focus the Duke’s attention on this area.
So that the majority of the troops near the Duke are concentrated here. So, to make it easier for the revolutionary army to move their base and raid each of the duke’s territories to deal a blow to his troops.
In the end, the main purpose is to get rid of the peacock, and the secondary purpose is to clean out the cancerous mass inside. The goal is to shake off the duke, but the life of this leader should be put on the line as bait.
“I have calculated to reduce it by at least half, but I am curious what the result will be. “Did that really happen?”
Since this side also loses half of its troops, the other side also needs to give up at least half of its troops to make ends meet.
Of course, the pitfall is that what this side loses is useless troops.
“For your information, the Duke’s location is the very last location in the raid plan.”
– Kwaaaang!!
No sooner had he finished speaking than an explosion was heard from the communicator.
Daniel raised the corner of his mouth lazily, looking at the confused enemies around him.
Perhaps the revolutionary army will not be able to kill the duke. Still, his troops will definitely be reduced. That’s enough.
While the revolutionary army is gaining strength, the duke will also be busy gathering himself and will not be able to target the revolutionary army.
“The leash must be definitely taken off. “Isn’t that right?”
By now, the revolutionary army’s base will have already been moved.
Since the leader of the revolutionary army, who was the only one who could contact, contact, and follow the duke, dies here, there is no longer a link between the revolutionary army and the duke.
‘It’s impossible to create new links.’
The first leader died due to the ‘duke’s betrayal’, so there would be no way for the second revolutionary army to join hands with him.
It is truly a clean break.
– Kill me now!
Daniel smiled faintly as he looked at the weapons coming at him from all directions, thinking that it would be enough to kill just one person. Perhaps because of the thick scarf, it appears to be targeting the heart instead of the neck.
Out of frustration, I let my thoughts out and provoked people to think that I was a person who must be killed. So as not to distract the duke’s senses and prevent him from taking me hostage.
Daniel himself was well aware of the value of the first leader.
‘Self Paul.’
This brother dared to use the killing department under the pretext of protecting the future of the revolutionary army.
Who within the same revolutionary army has the authority to arbitrarily decide the life or death of others? I, who polluted the ideology of the revolutionary army, will die along with those who are buried in personal emotions, so I hope that you will move forward with pure anger towards the ‘unfairness’.
No regrets.
Oh one thing. There is something that bothers me.
‘Not getting back the gift I gave to my mother.’
That one thing bothered me.
***
Could it be that the love for one’s children is connected by one thread?
Even before the news of Daniel’s death was delivered, the mother who lost her child was already crying.
Who helped me realize my ideals? When did I say I wanted your sacrifice?
Are you really saying that you, a clever person, did not understand the meaning of what this mother said when she gave me the scarf she knitted herself?
“You foolish thing, you foolish thing…!”
What is left for someone who has lost their beloved spouse? What did you think I had seen and lived so far?
I didn’t have to make it big, so I just hoped to survive. Watching my son grow and live has been the joy of my life.
I killed you.
“I am a sinner…”
I feel like my heart is being torn apart. Even if my body and limbs were torn apart alive, it wouldn’t have been this painful, so I couldn’t control my body and ended up sitting down and shedding tears.
You always thought you could never beat me. One thing was wrong.
Is it for no reason that it is said that no parent can beat his child? If I could have defeated you, I would have defeated that dangerous revolutionary army a long time ago.
I was eventually defeated by the way he moved around with a lively face and full of motivation, so I just left him alone.
“I am a sinner…”
I shouldn’t have said that in the first place. They should have refrained from making comments that might raise questions about the caste system, and even if they had said it, they should have at least prevented it from being put into action.
The poison that was demanded from you in the name of a gift was this mother’s last stubbornness. The safety of Daniel, the son who risked his mother’s life as a hostage to secure it. That was all, and now even that has failed, so what’s my life worth?
“…This mother will soon follow.”
What should I do if my child, who has many enemies, is still being harassed by vengeful spirits even after he dies?
He took out the poison that he had once requested from Daniel. I hear footsteps outside, so I pour it into my mouth and swallow it without hesitation.
Not long after the liquid passed down my throat, I quickly felt drowsy. As he fell asleep without pain, he felt Daniel’s own efforts as he could not bear to give his mother false medicine, so he smiled faintly and closed his eyes.
‘Did you know that a mother would not know what her child is thinking?’
This is a child born after being born for ten months and raised with love. As a mother who anxiously watched every step he took, I knew what was going through my son’s mind.
He probably wanted to leave this mother to the next leader after his death. He probably said it already. The sound of urgent footsteps like that is the proof.
“…But my brother directly asked me to look after my mother. “Even if I postpone the arrangement a bit, I have to personally come and apologize and take care of it.”
The sound stopped at the door.
smart.
“This is Paul, Daniel’s younger brother. “Can I come in?”
“….”
“…Why are you answering… Mother? “Are you there?”
“….”
“Mother?”
“….”
“…Excuse me!”
Suddenly. The door opened and it seemed as if it had found me with my eyes closed, as if it was about to rush in at any moment, but then stopped.
“…Please call Representative Iram.”
“Yes?”
“Come on!”
An urgent, muffled voice is heard, as if submerged in water.
Is it necessary to entrust oneself to an organization without a son? It is clear that as time passes, my handling of it will become an embarrassing burden that I cannot bear to throw away.
‘My son must retreat like this until the end…’
It seemed like he had planned a new start, but he left behind the remnants of the past like this.
──That was the last thought she had.
***
[Side: I will protect you even if I die]
The revolution of the revolutionary army must not succeed. Because Deon is under the protection of the current emperor.
However, it cannot lead the duke to victory. Because the Duke is trying to kill Deon.
A situation in which both the revolutionary army and the duke are trying to harm Deonhardt.
So I calculated it.
Takkak. Just right.
Chess pieces go back and forth. The thick, bony fingers stretched out comfortably grabbed the pieces of both sides and moved them alternately.
While the mysterious green eyes watched this, the horses moved without stopping.
The black horse attacks the white horse. The white horse does not lose and eats up the black horse. The black horse pushes the white horse away and sits down, but then the other white horse pushes it away and sits back down.
Sigh.
“Checkmate.”
The leader is dead.
Cruel picked up the black king that was lying on its deathbed and rolled it in his hand. A pensive green eye captures the chessboard where the war ended.
The winner is White, but considering the pieces remaining on the chessboard, Black has the advantage. Unlike White, who lost most of his operational troops, Black only lost some of his pawns.
A revolutionary army that has lost its head but its main strength is still alive.
A duke who has lost his troops but whose head is still alive.
The two must be pitted against each other. It would be best to completely destroy oneself, but since that won’t happen, it would be better to calculate the damage so that it is as big as possible. If you’re too busy taking care of yourself and don’t even pay attention to Deon, it’s a success.
Cruel was prepared to die from the moment he stepped onto the tightrope of psychological warfare with the Duke. It wouldn’t be surprising if his life were cut off at any time, so why would we believe it and wait until Deonhardt dies naturally?
He acted as if he was only going to live for today, and so he had the distant future in mind.
‘We have to find a way to keep Deon safe even after I die.’
A future in which Cruel himself is not dead.
Looking at the times, it would be difficult to achieve complete safety, so at least some of the countless dangers in the child’s path should be removed. So I shook my head.
Since you can’t do anything about the Demon World, just look away. With his eyes set on the Empire, he looked for the child’s greatest threat.
‘The duke and… the revolutionary army.’
Even a single duke would be in trouble, and even the revolutionary army.
The gloom was short-lived. Daniel is the leader of a group called the Revolutionary Army, and the Duke is a skilled politician who rivals the Emperor. They are not bound by promises based on affection or trust, but are joining hands for their own benefit.
The calculation was done quickly.
‘Did the revolutionary army leader’s mother say she wasn’t feeling well?’
After investigating, they also found that hemoptysis….
Cruel thought for a moment that he paused as he remembered his weak younger brother.
‘The leader said he doesn’t know about it yet.’
I heard that at her request, all the revolutionary troops serving her kept quiet. But even that has its limits. It is certain that it will be discovered at some point.
You don’t even have to look at the psychological shock that the leader of the revolutionary army would suffer at that time.
I gave an order.
