The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 193
Chapter 186 Counterattack (1)
People doubted their ears.
In a situation where the war was over, the option of opening the castle gate and attacking the enemy was never considered.
said Baron Noel.
“… that’s impossible Although they used their geographical advantage to defeat their opponents, the difference in power between the two sides is obvious. The moment you leave the city gates, Cairo may suffer an irreparable blow. And even if the Kronos Empire was killed, what would Cairo benefit from? Even if it’s not, the atmosphere in the kingdom is in trouble due to the civil war, but now I think it’s time to strengthen the internal stability.”
Heads of the West.
They recognized Roman Dmitry’s abilities.
Seeing how he arrived in the West in three days, which was considered absolutely impossible, he seemed to know why Roman Dmitri was called the hero of Cairo.
He is a person who cannot be judged by realistic standards.
I opened my heart wide to Roman Dmitri, but I still couldn’t agree to this plan.
Flora Lawrence.
Even she, who tried to save her words, supported Baron Noel’s opinion.
“Soldiers on the Western Front have endured a grueling schedule over the past few days. You must have built up a lot of fatigue from watching the enemy all night, but opening the gate now is no different from committing suicide.”
I saw Roman.
A man who made a big difference in his life.
He clearly emphasized how dangerous this is because he is not a person who will never lie.
“The Western Front is a strategic point. The priority here is to protect the safety of Cairo, not to kill as many Kronos Imperial forces as possible. Roman Dmitry. Your proposal is not prioritized. If all the aristocrats of Marquis Benedict, who had collusion with the Kronos Empire, were cleaned up, the Kronos Empire would have no reason to remain here. It’s a risk that will go away on its own, but do we need to make a big fight out of it by messing with the hive?”
It was a valid argument.
The war is over.
As always, it was time to focus on cleaning up the aftermath of the war.
but.
“Is that really the best you guys think?”
Roman Dmitry.
I couldn’t accept the general choice.

Heads of the West.
their words.
their reaction.
same as king
In a magical communication with Daniel Cairo en route to the Western Front, the King reacted with concern.
[…] … You will attack the Kronos Empire as soon as you arrive on the Western Front?]
“Yes.”
[This is a reckless judgment. Even if the Kronos Empire attacked us, we do not have the same authority to attack them. Defeating enemies with Mercury is a completely different matter. If they attack the Cronos Empire first, which is aiming for Cairo’s territory, they will surely induce a dispute between the countries using this incident as an excuse. The truth doesn’t work then. No matter who made the mistake first, the safety of the Cairo Kingdom cannot be guaranteed the moment the war begins.]
It was the reality of the weak.
even if it’s the same action.
The results were different depending on the logic of power.
The Kronos Empire always invaded Cairo’s borders despite being criticized by the international community, and Cairo never actively responded to it.
It’s not that I didn’t have the desire to take revenge.
Cairo’s survival strategy was to remain silent, although anger rose whenever the people died.
I did understand.
It was a reality that a small country had no choice but to accept, but the situation was different from now on.
“Your Majesty the King. The kingdom of Cairo experienced the pain of having my flesh cut out due to civil war. The kingdom army had a cause and punished the rebels, but the slaughter that occurred in the process was cruel in the eyes of the common people. We have a lot of homework to do in the future for the unification of power. Once the remnants of the aristocrats have been completely cleaned up, we will have to decide on the disposal of the imperial knapsacks. At that time, what justification will His Majesty the King present to the people? Can you pull out your sword to deal with the Kronos Empire, which directly attacked across the border, while standing by? A slaughter that has lost its justification cannot garner support from the people.”
It was an ambiguous problem.
Kronos Empire.
They openly joined the rebellion.
They invaded the borders for the Marquis Benedict, but the Cairo kingdom did not dare to touch them.
then.
What did the imperial knapsacks do?
The aristocratic faction of Marquis Benedict declared a rebellion, so there was a justification for it to be sorted out, but would it make sense to sort out the men without touching the empire that actually led the war?
If the civil war is prolonged, the people’s dissatisfaction will inevitably grow.
It is said that the royal family, who is silent to the empire, leads the massacre within the kingdom.
“Cairo is at a crossroads. By clearing the aristocracy, we unified the system of power, and we will not repeat the same mistakes as on the southern front. Now is your chance to gain the absolute trust of the people. Attack the Kronos Empire. Show the world how wrong they were in choosing to engage in civil war and invade their borders, and show the world that Cairo can wreak havoc. Even if our choice becomes a problem in the international community, there are not many opportunities to secure a cause as strong as this one.”
strengthened the voice.
Right after the rebellion was sorted out.
It was an opportunity to make a change.
Roman Dmitry knew that the disposition of the kingdom had to be changed in one big change, not a step-by-step change.
in a weak and weak country.
to one strong nation.
He had to show that he did not tolerate the atrocities of the Kronos Empire differently than before.
“The Kingdom of Cairo cannot be swayed by the Empire forever. It’s just one time. If Cairo shows a precedent that has changed, from then on, the Kronos Empire has no choice but to be careful in choosing to cross the border. We must not fear that this choice will turn into war. If it’s a war that will come anyway, now, when the Kronos Empire is having a conflict with the Kingdom Alliance, it might be an opportunity.”
beyond the screen.
The king fell silent.
Roman Dmitry was a difficult subject.
He constantly put himself at the crossroads of choice and took on responsibilities that were difficult for him to handle.
one whole country.
It was Daniel Cairo’s ideal.
Did I get drunk with Roman Dmitri?
After thinking for a long time, he made a decision for Cairo.
[You are right. For Cairo to move in the right direction going forward, it will need to prove to its people that the royal family’s decision was justified. The Kronos Empire has invaded its borders. If we leave them alone, who openly showed that they participated in the civil war, the people will think that this civil war is simply a meaningless massacre for the power of the Cairo royal family. Roman Dmitry. I will take full responsibility for this matter. Go west and pay for the border invasion against the Cronus Empire.]
Weak King.
he showed his will
Roman Dmitry looked at him and did his best.
“I take orders.”
* * *
And now.
The heads of the West looked at Roman Dmitri.
When asked if it was the best, they showed complicated eyes.
Roman said.
“Those of you who have been on the Western Front know the truth. Saying that there is no practical benefit to pursuing the Kronos Empire Saying that going out through the gates could be dangerous Saying that the soldiers in the West were very tired. They mean nothing. Don’t you all know? Due to the conflict with the Kingdom Alliance, the Kronos Empire’s eyes are on the south, and its enemies are unable to exert their full force here. Moreover, the Kronos Empire we face is weaker than ever, having lost considerable men in the siege of the last few days.”
The truth that has been neglected.
picked it up
He showed the truth in front of those who did not have the courage to open the gates.
“The practical benefit of this decision is that one fact is enough. That the Kingdom of Cairo no longer watches the atrocities of the Cronus Empire. The people of Cairo can live a different life than before if they openly conspire with Marquis Benedict and take bloody revenge on those who led the civil war. The belief that the Cairo royal family protects them. We must attack our enemies even for that.”
Roman’s words.
People were agitated.
Only then did I know
Roman Dmitri was a person with a different thinking circuit from theirs.
If they hoped to find stability in the peace before their eyes, the hero of Cairo thought about the future of the new kingdom.
Courage to open the gates.
Not a normal choice.
Since this has never been allowed in Cairo’s history, no one has been hasty to speak out in support.
Even so, his eyes began to burn with desire.
The words spoken by Roman Dmitry set their hearts on fire.
country-like country.
How long have you been wishing for it?
If until now we have not been able to unite in a system of power that has been torn into many branches, things will be different in the future.
Like Roman said.
It was a chance.
The gaze of the leaders was directed to one person, and at some point they waited for Count Vandenberg’s order.
Count Vandenberg laughed.
The rumors were true.
Roman Dmitri was the man who drove the storm, and Cairo will face a huge change as a result.
He said.
“So what can I do?”
* * *
The meeting is over.
It was as Roman intended.
Hearing that the pursuit team will be sent out as soon as the sun rises tomorrow, Flora came out and looked at the darkened sky.
‘… Roman Dmitry.’
really.
He was a consistent man.
Even in the war with Barco, people chose a method they hadn’t thought of, and this time, he showed the same appearance as he did back then.
In the meantime, even though I studied enough to wear out the tactics book.
Flora, like Roman Dmitri, did not dare to fight back.
thump.
My heart raced.
It’s not a rational thrill.
As a fellow human being and someone who studied tactics, I sincerely acknowledged how great Roman Dmitri was.
‘I’ve made a lot of progress in the meantime. I thought it was a little different now than when I was immature, but Roman Dmitri has developed to the point where I dare not look up. How can you live like that? Whenever I hear about Roman Dmitri, I am always amazed at his choices and ability to execute.’
she is.
I admired Roman Dmitry.
If it had not been for the meeting with him, she would still have lived like a flower in a greenhouse, but now she was leading a life of her own and creating the life of a person named Flora Lawrence.
People stopped calling it Lawrence’s flower.
Flora Lawrence was completely satisfied with the situation she remembered.
past mistakes.
I still regret the immaturity of that time.
However, because of that choice, he had no intention of denying what he had done because he was who he was today.
but.
There was a bit of sadness.
He wanted Roman Dmitri, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, to know about his change.
‘Tomorrow we will face the Kronos Empire for the first time on the plains. No matter how weakened the enemy’s power is, the Kronos Empire is an opponent that can never be taken lightly. Things may not work out as we thought, and in the worst case, we may be repulsed and the 3rd line of defense may fall. Let’s calculate the variables that will happen on the battlefield today. Just because you follow Roman Dmitri’s words, you shouldn’t blindly believe in his words.’
Tonight.
There was a lot to do.
Flora Lawrence intended to go to war herself, and she needed to be fully prepared for it.
one mistake.
In the past, she might have chosen according to her mood, but now Flora is thorough enough to be called a perfectionist.
It was then.
“… uh?”
far away
I saw two men conversing under the night sky.
One was Roman Dmitri.
Another was Rodwell Dmitri.
