Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 405

Episode 405 – The blitzkrieg alliance of 10 Western countries declares war on the Empire.

Bad news that slowed down the imperial army, which was advancing without hesitation towards McLane.

– The Empire has never attempted assassination. It’s the Black Snake’s masterpiece!

The Empire’s first excuse did not work.

It was not only a timely period, but even evidence was discovered that it was the Empire’s work, so it was not possible to persuade the victims with just the statement that the evidence was fabricated.

Then the emperor quickly made a decision.

However, contrary to everyone’s expectations, the central army of the empire, which had already reached the battlefield, did not retreat.

– I believe that the Western Legion of the Empire will protect our innocence.

– We will quickly organize the East and subdue the ruthless Westerners.

An emperor who crushed the movements and protests of the 10 Western countries that began to form an alliance at the same time as declaring war by simply saying that they were incompetent.

Now, the entire continent was agitated by the emperor’s declaration, clearly revealing his ambition to conquer the continent.

* * *

“I won’t stop…”

Logan muttered with a stern expression on Kyle’s face.

A move of conversion appeared, but the enemy did not accept it.

Even though it was one of those hypothetical situations, I couldn’t help but sigh when it actually became a reality. The expectation that the war could easily be ended ended up being an expectation.

“It has to come to an end eventually. Good job Damian.”

[no. It wasn’t my plan that worked anyway, but it came about because of the terror of unknown people. Probably….]

“It’s probably the work of the Kassel Magic Tower.”

[yes. Even the ghostly bodies and artifacts left at some of the sites matched almost perfectly with what His Majesty said. There are even places where signs of the imperial family were left behind. I now know for the first time that the certificate given by the Ares royal family can be forged. Hehe.]

In fact, there is no way the Empire would do something like this at this point, so there is only one possibility. Western countries that have suffered damage also have no choice but to follow public opinion because evidence remains at the scene, even if they cannot understand it with their heads.

McLane, who knows the situation, has no reason to defend the empire, so in the end, the formation of the Western Union will proceed as is.

If it’s a problem.

“We’ll have to endure one more, or several more, attacks.”

[It is entirely possible, Your Majesty. Why can’t you do twice what you’ve already done?]

“Yes, that’s right.”

The answer was that, but Logan didn’t really deserve this fact.

‘How long do we have to keep blocking it?…’

If the Empire’s offensive is blocked this time, and McLane wins, will the Imperial Army just return?

If we don’t go back, how long will the war continue?

Even if they go back, will they really give up the invasion?

Numerous negative questions filled my mind.

As a result, the culprit behind all of this had no choice but to resurface.

The owner of the gaze, who smiled arrogantly as if the whole world was his, and looked down at him with mad eyes.

“…If you kill the emperor.”

[Yes?]

“If the emperor can be killed, will the empire reap its ambitions?”

[…Historically, there was a time when a war was started again and the country was destroyed about 20 years after the defeat.]

Logan involuntarily burst out laughing at Damian’s words.

“Yes. Then it would have become an empire.”

[But our kingdom is different. Everyone believes that as long as His Majesty is alive, it will never collapse. One day, it will become a power that will put even the empire under its feet…]

“That’s right.”

Damian’s face showed a firm faith, but he was not confident in the object of that faith.

‘I’ve been very lucky so far.’

Now I had no further knowledge of the future.

If he prevented this war as long as he was the ruler, the kingdom would continue to develop, but the size of the country and population were too different from the beginning. If any of the magic essence farming method or Liberatio’s mixing ratio or the vision of mass production of artifacts were to flow into the empire, the speed of development would also quickly catch up.

No matter how much I thought about it, there was only one conclusion.

‘…You can’t just defend yourself.’

Protect it.

Must be kept.

I will protect my family and the people within my fence. certainly.

It is a life lived with only that thought in mind to atone for the past life.

However, it may be that the fundamental solution was unconsciously ignored.

Because it was something that felt beyond a vague possibility to impossible.

But in the end, to protect this kingdom.

“…The empire must be subjugated.”

A story that makes you shiver even when you say it yourself.

Preventing an invasion from an empire and subjugating that empire were two completely different things.

Naturally, the reaction of the person who heard those words was bound to be strong.

[Yes?!]

Damian’s eyes, who had been passionately shouting ‘I believe!’ just a moment ago, turned round.

[Uh oh… Your Majesty? I think I just heard something very disturbing!? I must have been hallucinating!? Please say yes! Please!!!!]

“…Why does it feel like your reactions are becoming more and more like Rick’s?”

[What are you saying? No, no, before that, what did you really say earlier…?]

Damian’s earnest eyes seemed to want him to tell me it was nonsense.

However, Logan confessed his true feelings to this vassal, who could be said to be his trickster.

I hope he comes up with another amazing solution.

And after a while.

[…That makes sense.]

Damian, whose eyes widened in an instant, affirmed Logan’s imagination.

“what?”

[I was just having very hopeful thoughts. No matter how much people say that, it’s all like that…. Hehe, life….]

It seemed like I could hear people saying “fuck it”, but it was probably an illusion.

‘I should warn you not to hang out with Rick too much. The way they speak is becoming very similar….’

While Logan thought about something strange for a moment.

Damian seemed to have just finished worrying and calmly expressed his thoughts with a slightly older look on his face.

[As long as Your Majesty is here, my opinion that the Empire’s provocations can be prevented forever remains unchanged. But if you think about future generations, there is definitely no answer to this. Because the empire has continued to adhere to its policy of expansion.]

“That’s right.”

[Even if we stop it, it will eventually expand its territory to the West. Looking at the way things are going recently, it seems like even Guyana Linden in the West will never be able to stop the empire.]

Even if I am, it will be the same from now on.

‘Now I’ve used all the moves I know.’

Logan calmly asked back, swallowing the sound of truth welling up in his throat.

“then?”

[As your Majesty said. Even if our technological capabilities are advanced now, we cannot stop it if the land area and population eventually become dozens of times different. [For later generations, only a future that surrenders to the empire is depicted.] It may not be

for future generations, but it could be our future just a few decades from now.

“Then what should we do?”

The Empire’s attack hasn’t even ended yet, so are we talking about the future too far?

Even as Logan thought about that, he couldn’t stop talking.

I had a strong feeling that this would be an important conversation that would determine the direction the kingdom should take in the future.

To be precise, I have a feeling that the goals of this war may change right now.

[…That’s why I won’t have the honor to see my descendants.]

“Yes, that’s right. But does that mean it’s possible to subdue the empire with our full strength now?”

[It’s difficult. However, there is no need to go all the way to subjugation.]

“What?”

[We only need to eat Ruspelheim, or even penna. To take control of the eastern part of the continent. Of course, that won’t be easy either.]

“One-third of the current empire’s territory? Is that enough?”

[It’s overflowing. At that level, the empire will be anxious to protect its current territory.]

“Hmm. One-third.”

It is definitely less burdensome than subjugation. Logan’s heart felt a little lighter.

But his wit immediately awakened him to reality.

[The question is whether that is possible with our power. This also means that the empire’s elite must be destroyed in a rotation where there is no anti-magic circle and the destructive power of new weapons is significantly lowered. I’ll have to think about that method first.]

There was only one answer Logan could give to those words.

“I have to try something.”

[…You must have compound eyes, right?]

“Let’s hit it first…”

[Oh, a little! Think before you act recklessly…!!]

The conversation that day continued for quite a while, with Damian sighing and yelling.

* * * By the time word was heard that the imperial army was passing through the border.

Guests came to Kyle Castle at the same time requesting a private meeting with Logan.

“I meet the ruler of McLane.”

A place just for the two of us.

Logan’s eyes were complex as he looked at the middle-aged man kneeling down to greet him.

Politically, the position of King Dongyik may have been greater, but Logan’s personal interests and immediate power could not be compared to the person in front of him.

‘It’s a new sword…’

From what I heard, the new sword Harmon Killerbrew has brown hair and blue eyes, and is a race commonly seen in the western part of the continent.

However, the person in front of me now had shining white silver hair and even white eyes, and had a more unique silver color than the Knight of the Moonlight, Plantz, who had a bad relationship with him in the past.

‘If I was going to disguise myself like this, wouldn’t it have been better to just change into shabby clothes?’

The appearance is so eye-catching that you can’t help but think that way.

However, the immense power felt within that unique appearance blew away the laughter that came with the thought.

An average person would probably have thought that he was just a person with an unusual appearance. This silver man was showing perfect control of his energy.

It’s been a long time since I met someone whose capabilities I couldn’t even read with my own senses. After exploring for a while, Logan nodded slightly and accepted his greeting.

“…Thank you for coming all the way. But what should I call you? Shall I call you Sir Heyman, as you wrote in your visit book?”

Even the pseudonym was so shabby that I laughed out loud, but Shingeom just nodded with a stern look on his face.

“Yes. It would be nice if you could call me that, Your Majesty.”

Shingeom’s eyes were clearly shaking as he looked at himself. He too felt a similar shock to what he felt.

No, maybe I was even more shocked.

whistle. The feeling that if you fight head on, you can’t guarantee victory or defeat.

As a new sword that had been famous on the continent for a long time, he might have been quite embarrassed.

Only after seeing that shaking figure was Logan able to relax.

‘At this level, it’s a little stronger than expected, but… it’s enough.’

It was judged that there was a chance of victory. If you manifest its characteristics, you will be able to handle it sufficiently.

However, the moment he smiled like that, Shingeom was seen smiling similarly.

Logan’s heart went cold at the sight of an expression that exuded confidence rather than a simple smile.

‘Could he have done something more?’

My mind couldn’t help but become complicated. Then, naturally, someone from Seongguk came to mind.

‘Did Ilya really tell Iza to hit me? why?’

Even though I asked Victor, I couldn’t get a clear answer. It’s just an incomprehensible statement telling me to consider myself an enemy.

‘Just be careful and that’s it.’

I can handle it.

Logan let out a small sigh and smiled at his ally who could possibly be his enemy.

“Very well, Sir Heyman. However, although it is presumptuous to say this, we will not be responsible for any conflict between the Empire and ‘there’ that may arise due to Lord Heyman’s characteristics. You know that, right?”

Shingeom’s eyes wavered a little at those words, but it was really only for a moment.

“Of course, I’m taking it into consideration.”

If another conflict breaks out between the Holy Kingdom and the Empire, it would be perfect for McLane.

That’s why I’m even more suspicious. Putting his thoughts to one side, Logan smiled again.

“I won’t forget what happens after that. Then, it won’t be long before the Imperial Army’s offensive begins again, so please get plenty of rest.” “

Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty.”

He stepped back . Logan looked at the back of Shingeom, who had not lost a single step until that moment, without taking his eyes off for a single moment.
