The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 108

Chapter 108 On the edge of the cliff (2)

The first method.

an hour ago.

Roman looked at the nobles and said:

“The Hector Kingdom needs time now. Whether you use the Warp Gate to get support from your allies or attract the Kronos Empire, you need to secure at least 3 days for the Warp Gate to function properly. So there is no reason to overdo it with enemies. There is a high probability of fighting only to the extent that we avoid the choices that will cause variables as much as possible and meet our attacks.”

inside the wall.

Hector went into hiding.

If you couldn’t break down the high and solid wall at once, pulling the enemy out was one way.

“The first way is to create a variable. As a great warrior, I will challenge the Hector Kingdom to a showdown.”

“It is reckless.”

“There is now a Butler in Hector Kingdom.”

The nobles’ reaction was negative.

Butler.

Who is he?

He is the leader of the Hector Royal Knights and is a figure called the standard of knights.

With fairly systematic swordsmanship and an explosive 5-star aura, he defeated countless enemies, and the commoner-born Butler enjoyed the honor of entering the Royal Knights only with his skills.

Now that he is getting old, he is refraining from external activities, but Butler was one of the most talented people on the continent who recognized his name.

blast furnace.

Roman’s proposal for a confrontation made the opponent’s choice obvious.

said Count Fabius.

“I am not denying that Roman Dmitri is strong. No one can ignore the achievements of a man named Roman Dmitri since he defeated the Kingdom of Hector with two hundred troops. But isn’t the opponent a Butler? Grand Warrior combat is a double-edged sword. When you win, you can gain momentum and destroy your opponent at once, but if you lose, there is no way to recover from the shock.”

“you’re right. The opponent is none other than Butler. How the hell do you beat a 5 star swordsman? I understand Roman Dmitri’s will, but I don’t think there’s any need to take the risk.”

Opinion was unified.

In order not to lose the talent of Roman Dmitri, the three nobles came together for the first time and persuaded Roman.

to their reaction.

Roman laughed.

“Because of your reactions now, I think the first method is valid. Hector’s kingdom. They are no different from us. I’m sure Butler will win, and since it’s a fight that I have no choice but to win, there is a possibility that I will forget my original purpose and accept my offer. That is where the variable begins.”

this operation.

It didn’t end with simply suggesting a confrontation.

Roman Dmitry suppressed the opposition of the nobles with a strong tone.

“Believe me. The moment I defeat Butler, there will be cracks in Hector’s fortified walls.”

* * *

And now.

Hector’s kingdom was shaken by Roman’s proposal.

Roman raised his voice at the answer that didn’t come back readily.

“We have no grudge against each other. No, to be precise, we can say that we were unilaterally damaged by Hector’s purpose. But that doesn’t matter. I hope that no more meaningless blood will be shed, and that is why I want to completely end this war with a great warrior battle.”

Carrots were brought out.

In order not to react to the fragrant smell.

Roman said the reward they wanted.

“If you win this battle. We will obediently accept Hector’s proposal. In exchange for the southern front, I will give you as much compensation as you want. Conversely, when I am victorious, immediately withdraw from the territory of Cairo. That is the only condition I wish for. We have already made a decision at the end of the meeting, and if you guys accept the proposal, we will accept the outcome no matter what happens.”

buzz buzz.

both sides.

There was an uproar.

It was an unconventional proposal to put an end to the war, and the aftermath of it had no choice but to spread in all directions.

‘Butler.’

The second-ranked swordsman in Hector’s ranking.

a strong opponent

Roman had developed rapidly, but a 5-star swordsman was still an existence that Roman Dmitri’s body could not handle.

A brief battle in the mountains.

That experience showed how strong Butler was.

It was an opponent who could never be sure of victory, but that’s why the victory was rather infested.

‘It’s worth risking my life in this confrontation.’

The life of a warrior.

I don’t want comfort.

He had to constantly fight, and if he found a being stronger than himself, he had to destroy that opponent to unlock his personality.

Heavenly Demon Baek Joong-hyeok.

The pinnacle of the Demonic Cult came from desire.

If Baek Joong-hyeok had been complacent and wished for a comfortable life, he would not have thought of smashing the captain’s head with a stone when he fell into Cave 12 in the first place.

If you keep your head down, you don’t have to take risks at the expense of letting go of your pride.

In a situation where he could live like everyone else, Baek Joong-hyeok always took a step forward.

It was the same even now.

If Butler is a strong being.

will surpass him

I will trample on him and prove my strength again.

Roman shouted.

“I know what you guys think. Now that negotiations with Cairo have broken down, you guys will try to bring in outside forces to solve your own problems. If the Kronos Empire were aiming for Cairo’s territory, they would try to occupy the southern front even after paying a huge reward. However, sufficient time is required to connect the warp gates. If you don’t accept my offer. Even at the risk of damage, I will destroy the rear camp within three days. All of you who dare to invade Cairo’s territory will be slaughtered, and those who survive will be tortured until they ask you to kill them.”

It was a whip.

drove the opponent into a corner.

By revealing the options of the Cairo Kingdom in advance, they told what cost their choices follow.

“I’ll give you exactly 10 minutes. I hope you make a wise decision within it.”

took a step back

There is no need to rush.

From now on.

It was Hector’s turn to choose.

* * *

On the rampart.

Hector’s soldiers groaned.

They pledged to risk their lives to resist, but everyone saw one person in the possibility of survival that popped out of nowhere.

It was Butler.

in people’s eyes.

Butler approached Edwin Hector and said.

“I will fight.”

“It is not allowed.”

“Commander! Roman Dmitry is already figuring out our intentions. I don’t know what variables will arise now that the fact that I’m trying to do a deal with the Kronos Empire is discovered. Please trust me just once. I will behead Roman Dmitri and return to find a way for the kingdom of Hector to live.”

It was a voice full of determination.

Butler is not being pushed back.

He was truly ready to risk his life for the kingdom of Hector, and Roman’s offer was an irresistible temptation.

but.

Edwin Hector shook his head.

“It’s not that I don’t trust you. Hector’s Royal Knight Commander Butler. With your skills, I think you can definitely defeat Roman Dmitri. The problem is that everyone here, you and me, knows that fact. The Roman Dmitri we experienced is not an unpredictable kid. We dare not look into the depths of the abyss, and we lost 700 of Hector’s men while being swung by Roman Dmitri all night. He asked us to fight because he was sure of victory. I don’t think I can bring you down with my skills, but Roman Dmitri definitely has a plan.”

I don’t know what Roman’s plan is.

but.

It was just a reminder of the experience of defeat.

Edwin Hector couldn’t accept the obvious trap because even when he was certain of victory, he faced a disastrous defeat.

Butler said.

“Commander. no prince After joining the Royal Knights, I lived with the prince for the rest of my life. What kind of person do you remember the prince? Were you a coward who backed down in fear of defeat and did not even try because he was worried about the opponent’s trap? It is to be expected that Roman Dmitri has special plans. But I am the leader of the Hector Royal Knights. The Roman Dmitri I experienced was one step below me, and I am confident that I will smash everything he prepares.”

got down on one knee

He appealed in a hot, seething voice and asked for Edwin Hector’s consent.

to that enthusiasm.

Edwin Hector was speechless.

Butler is right.

Although he is now old, Butler in his youthful days was more aggressive and strong than anyone else.

numerous challenges.

He passed through countless death threats.

Overcoming the process, Butler became a 5-star swordsman and made his name known as a strong man recognized on the continent.

‘You can never beat Butler with Roman Dmitri’s skills. Then their only option is to dig a trap and take down Butler. if that happened Hector’s kingdom gets a justification. We can take issue with the cowardice of our enemies and create a platform to get what we want.’

My head hurt.

A musty smell lingered in the nostrils.

When I recalled the moment I cremated the soldiers, I couldn’t speak.

however.

Just as Butler was a precious person to him, he needed a decision to save Hector’s kingdom.

Edwin Hector said.

“Promise me one thing.”

“Tell me.”

“If you notice any strange signs, run away immediately. i don’t want to lose you Can you promise me that?”

“All right.”

Butler got up from his seat.

The sunlight has been pushed out.

Hector’s giant said with eyes that did not waver even in the eyes of many people.

“Then I will go.”

* * *

Squeak.

The door is open.

At the sight of Butler walking forward, the battlefield sank into a quiet desolation, as if cold water had been splashed on it.

one step.

one step.

I got closer to Roman.

Butler said when he finally got to a distance where it wouldn’t be strange to attack at any time.

“I’ve seen a lot of crazy people in my life, but I’ve never seen someone like you. tell me in advance I will do my best I don’t know what kind of trap they prepared, but if you came out with a foolish mindset, turn around now. If you do, your life will be spared.”

Shuk.

I drew my sword.

Even though he hadn’t taken a pose yet, he gave off a cool spirit.

Roman laughed.

“I promise you one thing. In fact, the exact cause is not that important to me. The moment I crossed swords with you in the mountains. I hoped to see you fight to the end. At that time, the situation was not good and I had no choice but to step back, but now I have created a stage that is not disturbed by anyone.”

Hector’s kingdom.

I could see people thinking about their proposal.

understood.

It would have been difficult for him to step forward because he had already been beaten once.

but.

There were no traps in the first place.

“A sword is everything to me. There are no plans to trap you, and I just want to see you fight. So do your best If you kill me right here, you can get what you want.”

Moment.

Butler chuckled.

I expected it, but the opponent always exceeded my expectations.

“Crazy bastard.”

No more words were needed.

no matter who comes first.

Pak.

Papak!

They ran towards each other.
