The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 201

Chapter 194 A new map (4)

Is this how it feels to be choking on pressure?

Emperor Cronus looked down at Count Fabius in silence.

He was huge enough to fill the throne, and had a cold complexion that made him look rather pale.

Even if he cast off the guise of Emperor Cronus, he was a 5-star aura swordsman.

Although not officially registered in the rankings, the presence that Emperor Cronus erupted completely engulfed the huge imperial palace.

Fabius walked slowly.

I didn’t hurry to walk until I reached the emperor, and I didn’t dare to look up at the emperor.

The moment the door first opened.

The scene that came in visually was shocking.

The key figures of Cronus lined up on both sides, led by the emperor, showed how gigantic the Cronus Empire was.

widely.

I stopped walking.

As the representative of the delegation expressed his respect, Emperor Cronus opened his mouth.

“Are you Roman Dmitry?”

“no. I’m Cairo’s Fabius Bag… … .”

sudden.

“Cheer.”

It happened in an instant.

The moment Count Fabius revealed his identity, Emperor Cronus distorted his expression and at the same time, the knight who guided Fabius suddenly grabbed his neck.

And then fell straight to the floor.

I pressed Fabius’ head down with a violent hand, preventing him from lifting his head.

above it.

The emperor’s voice was heard.

“My agent would have made it clear. Negotiations are impossible, and if you don’t want an all-out war with Kronos, Roman Dmitri should come and offer his arms.”

“That is… .”

closely.

I couldn’t get my words out.

The knight of Cronus suppressed Fabius’ face excessively, and even if he tried to open his mouth, his words could not but be crushed where they touched the floor.

My heart was beating thump thump.

I knew that Emperor Cronus was a warlike person, but I did not know that he would treat the person who came as the representative of the delegation this way.

“I understand the meaning of Cairo well. If you really want an all-out war, I will show you the will of Cronus by cutting off your arm, the representative of the delegation.”

thud.

heart fell

The blood was cold.

‘If you can’t say anything like this, Cairo can’t avoid an all-out war. You can’t servilely beg for your life. At that time, Roman Dmitri’s plan will be completely messed up, and ambiguous remarks will cause the plan to fail. The problem is that if he goes too aggressive, Emperor Cronus may make an extreme choice even because of the status of the empire. It is necessary to convey Cairo’s intentions in a way that does not undermine the other person’s pride, while not being servile.’

I shook my head quickly.

A word at a time of judgment took a lot.

In a situation where his life was on the verge of danger, Count Fabius felt his surroundings become clearer.

“Your Majesty the Emperor Kronos! Cairo does not want all-out war! Please give me a chance to speak. After I convey all of Cairo’s will, then you may take my head instead of my arm!”

risked their lives

He shook off his savage hand and raised his voice.

There was no answer.

Eternity of time passed, in which only the sound of the heart penetrated the ear, and Emperor Cronus answered the question.

“Remember what you just said. If Cairo’s will does not convince me, you will die on the spot.”

A knight stepping aside.

Fabius got his chance to speak.

* * *

I got up from my seat.

He took a deep breath and looked up at Emperor Cronus while tidying up his messy clothes.

I was afraid.

His heart raced furiously, but Count Fabius swallowed his fear inside.

“The reason why we rejected the Kronos Empire’s proposal was that Marquis Benedict’s rebellion did not have a just cause. Marquis Benedict rebelled simply because his safety was in danger, and his involvement with the Kronos Empire was not the right decision. I don’t want an all-out war with Kronos, but I decided that it was not worth sacrificing the talents of the kingdom.”

Cronus mentioned a justification the other day.

They say that since they brought in the Empire from inside Cairo, their attack was justified.

First of all, the most important issue was denied.

The remarks starting now were made under the assumption that the Kronos Empire broke the laws of the continent.

“Cairo asked for the opinion of the international community on this matter. There was a war between countries for unjust reasons, and it was necessary to check whether there was an obligation to hold the accountable. And the five kingdoms, except for the Valhalla Empire, expressed their will to agree with Cairo. His Majesty the Emperor Kronos. This war was a civil war in which there was no justification for other countries to intervene. However, if we unilaterally want Cairo to sacrifice like this, we have no choice but to be driven to a dead end.”

It was a strange way of speaking.

Cairo said that he had no choice but to say this while putting the word that he had sought the consent of the kingdoms.

a few days ago.

Roman Dmitri contacted the five kingdoms on the continent for negotiations with Kronos.

Conversation with them was not difficult.

The kingdom union in the southern part of Cronus wanted a friendly relationship with Cairo even because of the dispute with Cronus, and the Hector kingdom decided that it was necessary to leave the last bad relationship and unite their voices this time.

It was an incident in which the empire oppressed the kingdom for no justification.

Cairo is being attacked now, but they didn’t know that it was them after that.

Roman’s plan.

It was to gather the power of the kingdoms.

Each kingdom did not have such great military power, but the story was different if it was a union of six kingdoms.

said Count Fabius.

“Cairo wants peace. If the Kronos Empire wants war, show Kronos’ will by cutting off his head. However, if you agree with Cairo, I hope you will finish this matter as it is.”

speech is over.

All the cards were revealed, and from now on, it was Kronos’ turn to decide.

* * *

Cairo’s intentions were blatant.

cliff edge.

They expressed their intention to fight to the end by uniting with the remaining five kingdoms if they were to push themselves.

and.

There was a trick in that remark.

The reason why the Valhalla Empire was deliberately not included in this plan is because they are Kronos’ evil.

The two major mountain ranges of the same continent as Kronos.

If the name of the Valhalla Empire had been uttered with threatening remarks, Emperor Cronus might have made an extreme choice even for the sake of the Empire’s status.

So, the Valhalla Empire was completely excluded.

They said they had nothing to do with this incident, but that didn’t mean their existence was completely irrelevant.

‘If an all-out war breaks out between Cronus and the kingdom union. The Kronos Empire will surely win, but the problem is after the war is over. The Kronos Empire, which consumed a lot of energy to defeat the six kingdoms, would have no choice but to worry about the war with Valhalla. Although Valhalla was not mentioned, there is no choice but to care about Valhalla. This is the best we can choose.’

It was a kind of intimidation.

Protect the pride of the empire.

Said the best compromise.

By attracting other nations, they obscured the point of Kronos.

Roman Dmitry.

He was a great person.

I thought that strength was only in military power, but the plan that came out of his head was so perfect that admiration came out.

In the current situation, there was no better plan than this.

The Kronos Empire is not ready to conquer the continent yet, and they don’t want to hasten their grand plans because of this.

gulp.

I swallowed dry saliva.

I trust Roman Dmitri’s plan, but the presence of Emperor Cronus kept my mouth dry.

It was then.

“You rolled your head quite a bit.”

don’t even panic

It wasn’t even an angry voice.

As if he had expected it, Emperor Cronus looked at Count Fabius with an expressionless face.

from the beginning until now. Emperor Cronus did not change his expression much throughout the conversation.

I couldn’t infer what kind of emotion it was, so even as Kairos’ raccoon dog, this position was difficult.

“In exchange for freeing Kronos’ captives, I’ll just skip this problem. However, the treatment of Roman Dmitri is a separate issue.”

“… what is that?”

“Roman Dmitry killed my people. Gustavo Knight Commander, Count Fabio. They are all talents who devoted themselves to the Empire. And as the Emperor of Cronus, I will pay the blood price. From now on, every night my people will visit Roman Dmitri. The crime of killing a talented person of the empire. It is up to Roman Dmitry and Cairo to handle it.”

Emperor Kronos.

he was a scary person

Cairo has brought other countries into the matter.

However, there was no way to get their help if it was simply revenge for Roman Dmitri.

assassination attempt.

how did you help with that?

No matter how unfair they raised their voices, there was a high probability that the assassination in the shadows would end with the death of Roman Dmitri.

I got goosebumps for a moment. Emperor Cronus did not want an all-out war with Cairo in the first place.

It occurred to me that perhaps, in order to rescue the captives, they had set the stage to restore the status of the empire by driving Cairo into a corner and assassinating Roman Dmitri.

above the sky.

It was an out-of-this-world existence.

Empires were called empires for a reason.

“And from now on, the same tricks as today won’t work.”

Emperor’s speech.

Count Fabius could not hide his miserable expression.

* * *

A few days later.

Fabius returned to Cairo.

After going to the king and reporting a series of circumstances, he bowed his head in his seat with Roman Dmitri.

“… sorry. A variable has occurred.”

War averted.

However, as someone who served Roman Dmitri, I couldn’t bear to say that an assassination attempt would be made in the future.

My face turned red.

As a renegade, he showed confidence that he would prove his abilities and left, but Fabius could not find a perfect answer in front of the giant named Emperor Cronus.

however.

“Good job.”

Roman Dmitry.

He showed a disinterested expression.

He was already accepting territory that Count Fabius had not expected.

“The Kronos Empire never once gave up on their will. Their target was me from the start, and they were likely not going to reap their threat to me apart from accepting the Cairo deal. You did the best I could ask for.”

Kronos’ response.

was within the expected range.

‘Emperor Kronos. As expected, he is a belligerent person.’

If Roman Dmitry had gone as an envoy.

Although he mentioned assassination, he would not have killed himself. It was a matter of pride rather than profit.

If you let Roman Dmitri live and kill him outside the Empire, people will be intimidated by the Empire’s influence.

So, he volunteered as an envoy.

Knowing that Emperor Cronus was of the same kind as himself, he knew that it was not that dangerous.

Even if the worst happens.

Roman Dmitry had a way out of the situation.

“… Are you sure you’re okay? The Kronos Empire has historically predicted only one assassination. And the swordsman of Valhalla, who was the target, died horribly, causing great uproar.”

Count Fabius expressed concern.

It was a natural feeling.

I trust Roman Dmitri, but the value of the name Kronos gave me a tremendous sense of weight.

however.

he didn’t know the truth

Roman Dmitry.

No, what kind of life did Baek Joong-hyeok, the heavenly demon, live?

Assassinations were routine, and Emperor Cronus’ intentions to terrorize him went awry from the start.

“Never mind. That is my problem from now on.”

Blood boiled.

at las.

I felt like I had entered my own world walking on a knife.
