The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 132
Chapter 132 The value of a sword (1)
The people of the Northeast Alliance gathered once again.
“A swordsmanship competition held by the Dmitry family. This is a great opportunity for us to avenge our past humiliation.”
It was Viscount Conrad.
As soon as he heard the rumors, he contacted the people of the Northeast Federation.
“Roman Dmitry promised not only a prize of 100 gold, but also anything the winner requested. If the Northeast Federation produced a winner. We can stand in front of people as winners. At that time, we will show the face of a great people, not to accept Roman Dmitri’s apology, but to cover the past. The benefits we get from doing so are clear. With one stroke of forgiveness, we can restore our relationship with Dmitri and restore our fallen honor.”
Contact with Count Fabius.
I learned how important Roman Dmitry is.
I thought the most ideal scenario was a strategy to save each other’s face in an appropriate line, rather than becoming an irreversible relationship while trying to get perfect revenge on him.
The Northeast Alliance forgives Roman’s words and actions.
In addition to restoring his honor, it was a good opportunity to promote a new relationship with Roman.
said a nobleman.
“The question is, can we win? Excluding the Northeast Federation, there are many people showing interest in the tournament, so would it be possible to beat them all and win?”
“you’re right. And among the guys who follow Roman Dmitri, there are guys called Chris and Kevin. Why aren’t there guys who came out with Roman in the previous battle with Barco? It’s those guys. I remember showing great fighting ability back then, but if they represented Dmitri in the competition, winning would not be so easy.”
It was a big stumbling block.
Championship.
All plans were only possible when he reached the top.
Viscount Conrad smiled at the people’s concerns.
“yes. I don’t think it’s an easy win either. However, the competition will be held in six groups. chris? Kevin? Even if they are formidable, they cannot participate in all competitions unless they have six bodies. Then there are obviously loopholes in the tests that Dmitry can send out. That is the point we are aiming for. All you have to do is bring out the strength of your family and evenly participate in the 6 groups. Then obviously one group can produce a winner.”
“… That’s a very believable statement.”
“From what I’ve heard, it doesn’t sound like a bad plan. Doesn’t our plan succeed if we produce just one winner?”
last few days.
The Northeast Federation had a very humiliating day.
I couldn’t raise my head properly in front of people, and I couldn’t figure out how to resolve my relationship with Roman.
revenge and compromise.
To succeed in both, there was definitely no opportunity like this one.
Viscount Conrad said.
“The tournament is a month from now. Keep in mind everyone. There is no way to regain the reputation of the Northeast Federation, which has fallen to the ground, unless you take advantage of the heaven-sent opportunity. Don’t choose any means. Even if you have to disguise an outside master as a ‘person from the northeast’, you just have to produce a winner somehow. And it won’t be that difficult. Even if Dmitri’s power is great, isn’t it overwhelming enough to monopolize all 6 competitions? After all, they are just one family on the periphery. With this opportunity, we can leap forward again.”
one month ahead.
they thought
The time of humiliation will not be long and the bats of the Northeast will survive as always.
* * *
That time.
Roman summoned his subordinates.
Chris Kevin McBurney et al.
Looking around at them looking up at him, Roman said in a calm voice.
“I’m sure you all have heard rumors that I’m holding a tournament. From now on, I will declare infinite competition to you guys. for the next month. You guys will compete and compete against each other to select six warriors to represent the Dmitri family in the tournament. The evaluation of the past is not important. It means that only one month’s grades represent your current position.”
Moment.
The eyes of the subordinates changed.
I didn’t offer any reward, but just the word ‘competition’ made the atmosphere feel heavy.
‘We’ve left the southern front, but our war isn’t over yet. From the moment I clearly state my line, I cannot avoid running into situations with the powerful in Cairo. That’s why it is necessary to maintain the tension from the battlefield while staying with Dmitri. Like a sharp sword that can be unleashed at any time. I will give him a justification so that his subordinates can aspire to be strong.’
War.
Roman and his subordinates had a fierce time.
While there are people who develop based on the experience of that time, there are also cases where the screws are completely loosened in a comfortable rest in the capital city.
The relief of being off the battlefield.
And praise from those around you for your performance on the battlefield.
For complex reasons, war does not have a positive effect on everyone.
Life in Dmitry.
It was a time when my mindset was relaxed.
Roman did not stand by and observe such changes, but gave his subordinates who had lost their purpose a reason to burn.
“A person who raised his reputation on behalf of Dmitri must be rewarded that way. If you are selected as 6 swordsmen and confidently win the tournament. I will teach the winner a ‘higher class’ technique. There are many different types of technology. Whether it’s simbeop, swordplay, or how to move the body. I will tell you the proper way to leap from your current realm to a higher level.”
top tech.
The subordinates swallowed dry saliva.
Even if it was simply a place to evaluate loyalty, they would have risked their lives to win somehow.
But it’s a high-level skill.
The subordinates did not know the meaning.
‘The master is a being on a different level from us. We know a lot of knowledge that can be called treasure on the continent, and we are rapidly becoming stronger just by being bestowed with some of them. However, if the master describes it as a high-level skill suitable for the present. that’s a huge surprise It is sure to teach you great skills that cannot be compared with the prize money of 100 gold.’
Sparks flew.
to the war with Hector.
They built camaraderie.
Their trust in each other was solid, but they had no intention of acting recklessly on the board that Roman had openly laid out.
within the same group.
If possible, I wanted to be the best.
Their eyes were already burning at the flames Roman had thrown.
‘The purpose of this competition is twofold. To face up to the reality of the nobles of the northeast and to train my subordinates perfectly. After the tournament is over, the situation in the northeast will probably change considerably.’
Opportunity of two wins.
Roman released the reins of his subordinates.
“From now on, we will start infinite competition.”
* * *
Dismiss the subordinates.
Roman organized his thoughts.
‘One month ahead. It’s also time to reorganize myself.’
Southern Front.
Roman saw a new world there.
While mixing swords with Butler, he knew that there were strong people he had never experienced on the continent, and Edwin Hector’s magic was unpredictable.
For the first time in my life as Roman Dmitri.
He felt that his life was in danger, and in the series of crises, Roman could rather burn his presence.
The heavenly demon, Baek Joong-hyeok.
It is a being born from death.
Crisis was familiar, and Roman felt alive as a human being.
but.
‘Inflicting a crisis on oneself is an act of stupidity. I only risked my life for victory, and the only way to avoid repeating a crisis like that time is to become stronger myself. As if the subordinates were going to have an infinite competition for the next month. I will also find a way to move forward for a month.’
Awareness gained on the battlefield.
It was a time when closing training was needed.
This time, he was thinking of making a new sword while looking back on his condition while staying at the forge.
sword.
it’s just a tool
In order to advance to a new level, he needed a sword suitable for him, and the flame, which suited him perfectly, was no longer able to keep up with his own strength.
That was a natural result.
Always making a sword suitable for the present, when I took a step forward, the sword I used before became a remnant of the past.
before the closing practice.
Roman called Lucas.
“Did you call?”
The head of the information guild.
Lucas has accomplished a lot in the past.
Based on Dmitri’s manpower and wealth, he quickly took control of the surrounding area and recently absorbed the information guild Black Moon.
Roman’s prediction was correct.
Lucas was admirably talented and offered clear rewards, so he quickly created Haomen’s system.
It was different from the past.
If he wants Barco’s information now, Lucas has the ability to retrieve it in just five minutes.
“For the next month, I plan to conduct closed-door training. In the meantime, no reports will be accepted, with one exception. In case of a family change. Then you have to tell me the facts.”
“All right.”
“And please sell this sword.”
Roman handed over the sword.
It was chloride.
In order to make a new sword in the future, it was decided that it was necessary to let go of the existing sword.
“The original name is Hwahwa, but I decided to call it Blaze to find a new owner. Any method of sales is fine. Find a new owner for Blaze without revealing that I am the owner of the sword. The profits can be used as funds for the Information Guild.”
It was the method of Baek Joong-hyeok, the Heavenly Demon.
living as the Heavenly Demon
Baek Joong-hyeok made several swords, and whenever he produced a new sword, he let go of the old sword without regret.
It was the master’s desire.
It became a sword that was unnecessary to the current self, but he hoped that it would shine in the hands of others.
The sword of the Heavenly Demon that was released to the world was called the treasure.
Wandering around the world, he met numerous masters, and as they gained fame, he proved to people that the heavenly demon, Baek Joong-hyeok, was also a great craftsman.
It was no different this time.
one month ahead.
Roman will have time to accept the new sword.
That’s why I wanted to let go of the remnants of the past and not have the reputation of ‘Roman Dmitri’ involved in the process of finding a new owner for the sword.
If it is a sword made by the hero of Cairo.
Regardless of which sword it was, there was a high probability that collectors with a lot of money would get it at a high price.
I didn’t like that ending.
At least, he hoped that his sword would find an owner who would recognize its value.
Lucas accepts the sword.
“See you in a month.”
at the end of that encounter.
Roman took a step back.
lung training.
From now on, it was my turn to spend a hot and fierce time.
* * *
Break up with Roman.
Lucas looked around at the sword.
“No matter how you look at it, it’s a great sword, so why are you trying to sell something like this?”
He is not a blacksmith.
However, as he wandered around the battlefield, he had an eye for distinguishing good weapons, and this sword in front of him was certain.
A blade that extends smoothly.
A flash of anticipation.
The saliva fell off.
In his heart, he wanted to give a large amount of money and use it, but that was different from the purpose the lord commanded.
‘I’m really sorry. I would have done anything to buy this if I was still playing on the field.’
Lucas was clear on the merits and demerits.
If it’s Roman’s order.
Followed without a single error.
Suppressing his desire for the sword, he suddenly had an interesting idea.
‘My lord said that any method of selling swords would be fine. If this sword, made by a hero in Cairo, is auctioned off anonymously, how much would it be worth? It’s not a bad way. The master also wanted the sword to find its owner, so those who know the value of the sword will pay a high price.’
It was the perfect way.
destination has been set.
Northeast commercial center.
Headed to Count Adelian’s estate with a warp gate directly connected to the capital.
Adelian Auction House.
It was Lucas whose heart was pounding for nothing at what was to happen there in the future.
