The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 171
Chapter 166 Cairo’s No. 1 Sword (1)
It was a shocking visual.
The face that showed confident confidence was not symmetrical, probably because one cheekbone was sunken, and thick blood flowed from the greatly swollen nose.
Geron’s eyes completely lost focus.
He did not dare to look up at Roman Dmitri’s face and trembled like a frightened child even as he spoke of surrender.
“… this.”
“Take care of Jeron!”
Count Gregory’s people.
they stormed the stage.
Jeron was a person whom Count Gregory cherished, so he could not tolerate something wrong with his body.
It was a scene that I couldn’t accept even if I saw it with my own eyes.
Even when Jeron went on stage, people discussing victory or defeat lost their words at the sight of Jeron lying on the floor receiving treatment.
Ranked 10th.
People said it was a completely different world from then on.
Jeron was not just a mere falsehood, but Jeron was a being who constantly proved his worth.
Then it didn’t make sense to lose like this.
If Jeron had fallen on his knees after a fierce battle, people would have applauded sincerely, but the game was so one-sided that his head couldn’t accept the information.
on stage.
Roman stood tall.
While everyone was silently watching, Roman looked around at the crowd.
‘The plate is laid.’
confrontation so far.
It’s just an appetizer for this stage.
Cairo is a small country.
At least in the well, I thought to imprint what kind of existence Roman Dmitri was.
Roman said.
“To be honest, I am a little disappointed. 1 year ago. I declared an open ranking match beforehand. What do you think is the reason? I didn’t need time to hone myself, I just wanted the Cairo rankers I’d be dealing with in the future to be ready to greet me. And the results are visible right in front of your eyes.”
There was no courtesy for the losers.
ridiculed Jeron.
How bad he was, Roman emphasized openly.
“I found out after defeating Jeron, who was considered to be ranked 10th. That there was no opponent other than Count Nicholas who could take my sword from Cairo. Therefore, we will omit all meaningless steps. 3 days later. Today, we will face rankers from 9th to 2nd in order.”
Moment.
People were astonished.
What the hell does this mean?
Even though I heard it with my ears, my head couldn’t understand it.
“And I will defeat them all and challenge Cairo’s greatest sword.”
Roman’s remarks.
People were shocked.
Roman Dmitri, who has shown unconventional moves in the past, but this remark went too far.
sure
Roman Dmitry.
He was so arrogant that he was a complete madman.
* * *
Cairo turned upside down.
Roman’s Declaration of War.
Defeating them in order from 99th place is a big deal, but he said that he would deal with the top rankers one after another.
It was shocking.
The protagonists of the remarks immediately gathered in one place.
“… How are you going to do this? To be honest, I was thinking of abstaining. There is not much difference between me and Jeron in terms of skill, but didn’t Roman Dmitri overwhelmingly defeat Jeron?”
It was Bruno, ranked 9th.
that day.
Bruno was on the scene.
It was a ulterior motive to get information in advance in preparation for dealing with Roman, but I was terrified watching Jeron being pushed unilaterally.
This wasn’t the level he was dealing with.
It was a fight in which defeat was clearly predicted anyway, so I didn’t want to suffer the same rough situation as Jeron because I dared to show off my courage.
The man sitting across from him.
said Oscar, number two in the rankings.
“Still, I cannot abstain.”
“Oscar!”
“There is no one following the King faction in this position. So, if you let Roman Dmitri take on Count Nicholas, the result is effortless and beneficial. But Roman Dmitri mocked Jerón. They said he wasn’t worthy of the top 10 in the rankings, so he was cut in front of people and he declared war against us all on the same day. This problem is not simple. If Roman Dmitri loses against Count Nicholas, people will mock us as cowards for giving us the second place without even fighting Roman Dmitri.”
this case.
It was a matter of pride.
From the moment people’s eyes were focused, I couldn’t step back.
“… So, are you really going to deal with Roman Dmitri?”
It was the 5th ranked horse.
everyone.
I was offended by Roman’s remarks.
However, apart from personal feelings, there was not a single person who did not acknowledge Roman Dmitri’s skills.
It is a monster that reached 99th to 10th place.
Looking at Roman Dmitri defeating Cairo’s rankers without much rest, Cairo’s rankers aroused respect as swordsmen.
sure
Roman Dmitry.
It was a talent that would always be active on the continent.
Although he was still young, his talent was recognized by everyone.
said Oscar.
“Yes, I intend to deal directly with you. So, I called you all together. To be honest, I don’t have the confidence to defeat Roman Dmitri on my own. This is a proposal that forces you to sacrifice unconditionally, so I am cautious, but please reduce your stamina as much as possible until Roman Dmitri reaches me. Compensation for that will be guaranteed by Marquis Benedict, whom I serve. If we join forces like that… … .”
eyes have changed
Pride as number two.
Knowing that Marquis Benedict coveted Roman, he didn’t want to open the way even more.
“I will even risk my life to defeat Roman Dmitri. And I’ll tell you in front of everyone that I could never have won if it wasn’t for you guys.”
in Oscar’s words.
The rankers looked at each other.
sacrificial role.
I didn’t like it.
If Roman Dmitri had not openly provoked them, they might not have gathered here in the first place.
but.
The plate has already been laid.
My pride wouldn’t allow me to step back.
“I will follow Oscar’s plan.”
“Let’s show the wall of reality to that thunder-naked Roman Dmitri. what? You’re going to knock us all down one after another? I promise you, I will finish off Roman Dmitri on my own before I challenge Oscar!”
“you’re right! Let’s join forces!”
Rankers burning with enthusiasm.
leave the force
They cried out to Roman Dmitri for overthrow, and put their heads together all night long to make concrete plans.
* * *
Exactly 3 days later.
Roman appeared at the promised place.
Waiting while surrounded by crowds, Cairo’s rankers appeared soon after.
“omg.”
“From Bruno to Oscar! It really showed up from 2nd to 9th!”
“I never thought I would respond to Roman Dmitri’s provocation. You can’t predict who will win in this way?”
Confrontation with Geron.
People asserted that Count Nicholas was the only one who could defeat Roman.
However, dealing with 8 swordsmen in turn was a different matter.
It wasn’t even a nameless gossip, but even Bruno, who was ranked 9th, was a swordsman who once had a great reputation in the Kingdom of Cairo.
On the Western Front, when I said Bruno’s name, everyone recognized me.
Didn’t Bruno show a strong presence even against the powerful Kronos Empire?
8 prosecutors.
They appeared one after another.
Looking at them, Roman recalled the report he heard three days ago.
‘The noble faction of Marquis Benedict is secretly mustering troops. Perhaps their purpose is me, not the rebellion. If I decline their offer. Marquis Benedict will surely make an extreme choice.’
the expected sea.
noble faction.
What was the reason they were able to shake their power?
It is difficult to touch the forces following Cronus and Valhalla, but those who might form a third force have been cut off in advance.
That’s how he drove the royal faction into a corner.
In the Kingdom of Cairo, the environment was created so that people who did not follow the aristocrats could never live.
It was fun.
Rankers in front of you.
Since there is no royal faction, they made the decision to join forces while following different factions.
This is the reality.
Unless you’re a royalist.
Nobles always became one.
‘The power system in Cairo will not allow me any more time. It’s a dead end road. Will you devour them or be eaten? At the crossroads of either/or, I have to choose.’
seal.
laughed
this moment.
I’ve been waiting patiently for the past year.
The peace lasted too long and Roman Dmitry did not like it very much.
As a start for the finale.
widely.
Roman went on stage.
No questions and answers.
Now it was my turn to show the reality.
* * *
At first, there was a plausible plan.
‘Roman Dmitri will try to win fast from the start. In a situation where you have to deal with 8 rankers in turn, you probably want to avoid long-term battles. Arrogant guy. You made a fatal mistake. If we hadn’t been united, we would have rushed like moths to a fire as you wished, and then we would have fallen one after another.’
Bruno had one purpose.
defense only.
It was a ulterior motive to increase the aura to protect the body and then take as long as possible.
I didn’t have the confidence to win.
However, if he was determined and persevered, he was confident that no matter how great the difference in skill was, he would consume his stamina.
however.
Squeak-
‘… … ?!’
first workshop.
The moment he blocked Roman’s attack, Bruno widened his eyes.
It was a different sound than expected.
The sword that caused the aura should have blocked Roman Dmitri’s attack, but his own sword was split in two with the aura burning.
It was a shocking scene.
Bruno had no time to fight against the attack, which made his plan go to waste from the start, and he felt a sensation digging into his chest.
Pooh.
Blood spattered.
didn’t kill
However, Bruno collapsed as the sword cut through his chest.
“next.”
Silence fell.
Those who expected a fierce match were at a loss for words at the one-sided match, just like Jeron.
still.
It was still the first match.
Even so, Bruno, I thought it was different from the 8th place in the rankings.
Caan-!
The sword bounced off.
The eighth-ranked swordsman tried his best to block Roman’s attack, but like Bruno, his sword didn’t cut, and he couldn’t block it properly.
That was the best 8th place could do.
As Roman’s fist dug into his stomach, he slammed his face on the floor and vomited out what was inside as if he were going to pour out all his internal organs.
“next.”
in just one minute.
Reached the third turn.
7th place went up on stage with a very nervous look, but they couldn’t hold on for long and felt their mind cut off.
Puck- it
was overwhelming.
Roman’s aura showed destructive power that could not be blocked even with a 5-star aura, and no matter how it was blocked, subsequent attacks created another problem.
The 7th place in the rankings was also a man who enjoyed an era.
Although he was not a person to fall down like a common nameless swordsman, people were speechless at the sight of him splattering blood.
“next.”
fourth turn.
fifth turn.
sixth turn.
the confrontation proceeded.
The plans we put our heads together all night had no meaning, and everyone on the stage collapsed.
As time passed, people’s complexions became pale.
The result must be in line with common sense to some extent to show admiration, but this was so overwhelming that even the onlookers were intimidated.
People didn’t know much about Roman.
Baek Joong-hyeok, the heavenly demon, possessed the body of Roman Dmitri and was equipped with the power to defeat Butler in a short time.
How long will that be?
barely a year
The move that shocked people was the result of that short time.
and.
spent the past year
People will remember Roman from a year ago, but the current Roman has undergone many changes.
When conceiving this plan in the first place, Oscar and other prosecutors were just small puppies who did not need a special plan.
no matter how strong they are
It was just a frog in a well whose name was not even listed in the continental rankings.
Puck –
3rd place ranker.
he fell down
I could see the shocked expressions on the faces of the people behind him as he collapsed on the floor and was bleeding.
“… It’s nonsense.”
among them.
There was Oscar with a pale face.
He, who had declared that he would win unconditionally if the previous turns reduced his stamina, was fascinated by the sun rising in the middle of the sky.
The confrontation started at noon. The sun was still there, but the stage was covered with blood.
Only then did I know
Roman Dmitri was a monster Cairo couldn’t handle.
“next.”
death sentence.
to the voice calling out to you.
Oscar closed his eyes tightly.
