The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 210

Chapter 203 Wheel of Fate (3)

A week ago.

During her stay in Kairos, Flora Lawrence spent time with the tactics professor who once taught her.

widely.

One step forward for the pawn.

Flora Lawrence, who tried to press aggressively, said without taking her eyes off the chessboard.

“Immediately after the battle in Kairos, Roman Dmitry headed to Benedict Castle in the pretext of exterminating the rebels. As a result, it became a decision to quickly organize the rebellion, but in fact, there were many risk factors in that judgment. First of all, it is a bold yet very dangerous decision to arrest the head of the imperial faction while defining the aristocratic faction of Marquis Benedict as a rebel. Temporarily, it will have the effect of suppressing the imperial faction from intervening in the civil war, but if the battle in Benedict’s castle was prolonged, the imperial faction would surely have intervened in the civil war.”

It was a kind of revival.

A storm passes by

I slowly reviewed the series of situations.

Rather than looking at the results and being convinced that the process was right, we analyzed the process that produced the results once again.

The professor stopped the pawn from moving.

Also, the gaze through the glasses did not deviate from the chessboard.

“There is a point in what you say. only 3 days. Even if that amount of time had been delayed, the civil war in Cairo would have changed to a different aspect than it does now. However, Roman Dmitri’s judgment was bold and well-founded. He secured a weapon called the ‘Phoenix Magic Tower’, which was not expected by the rebels, and drove it into the castle on purpose with the judgment that he could capture Benedict’s castle. His intentions were clear. I knew that if I allowed various options to the enemies, the war would prolong, so I deliberately forced them to choose the options that were considered advantageous.”

Try counterattack with Knight.

I raised my glasses and glanced at Flora.

“There is a difference between recklessness and boldness. The fact that the Kronos Empire did not waver and continued the plan means that Roman Dmitri was confident in his plan. And that made the difference between the success of the plan. Benedict’s rebels collapsed much earlier than the strength they possessed.”

“Then what do you think of the judgment that opened the city gates? Although it is a decision to set a precedent that Cairo will not suffer, the cost of failure is very fatal. I’ve already sorted out the rebels and produced the most ideal result. Was it necessary to do so, endangering the Western Front?”

“I agree that it is a risky choice. If we had lost the battle outside the gates, the previous victories would have been meaningless.”

The horses moved intricately.

While exchanging fierce battles, he analyzed the tactics in his head.

“But again, Roman Dmitri’s judgment was driven by strong convictions. Confidence that you can handle the same variable as Gustavo Knight Commander. In addition, Kronos’ power was in a situation where it was easy to measure due to the conflict with the Kingdom Alliance, so if he could secure an advantage in strength, the variable would not be as big as when he subdued the rebels.”

widely.

The professor’s words weighed on Flora Lawrence.

It was at a disadvantage at first, but soon took the form of preying on the opponent.

“Flora. Roman Dmitry’s bold judgment shone in this war from beginning to end. It is definitely an area of experience that cannot be acquired through books, but Roman Dmitri skillfully led the war as he intended. To be honest, it’s embarrassing. In conclusion, everything seems to be a trick, but in reality, it was a dangerous decision that could have fallen into abyss at the moment of even a slight slip. Apart from the perfection of tactics, this war can also be said to be a version created by Roman Dmitri’s personal capabilities.”

Queen’s advance.

drove the opponent into a corner.

“Checkmate.”

Surrounded by enemy words, Flora Lawrence admitted defeat by putting the King down.

* * *

Space left alone.

Flora Lawrence stared at the chessboard.

His odds with the tactics professor were half and half, but he couldn’t focus on chess because he was busy analyzing Roman Dmitri’s tactics.

“… It is an area that cannot be learned through books.”

professor’s words.

I couldn’t readily accept it.

Flora Lawrence was not ignorant of Roman Dmitri’s life.

At one time, he was the one who was trying to be his spouse, so he inquired around and found out what kind of person Roman Dmitri was.

There was no basis for the experience the professor was talking about.

Roman Dmitry obviously lived a life far from the battlefield, and he suddenly changed into a new person without much to say.

then.

“Is it the realm of talent?”

There was no other way to explain it.

Roman Dmitry’s moves.

From the battle with Barco to the southern front and the turmoil in the northeast.

Flora Lawrence used the issues that stirred up Cairo as a textbook for tactical study.

I got goosebumps.

At first, if I was simply admiring what Roman Dmitry had done, the more I opened my eyes, the more I saw how ridiculous things he had accomplished.

In particular, the movement on the southern front was perfect from beginning to end.

Edwin Hector’s intention to seize the Warp Gate was discerned and the actions taken at the moment played a decisive role in the Cairo Kingdom’s recapture of the southern front.

In the meantime, Flora Lawrence studied really hard.

As I studied the tactics of the great men known throughout history, I found out that Roman Dmitri was no match for them.

‘How can Roman Dmitri always make the right decisions on the battlefield where his life is at stake? After the war, I’m sure he was right, but I wouldn’t have made that decision at the time.’

she too

I was at a crossroads of choice.

When Daniel Cairo decides to stay on the Western Front with the promise of a promotion, working with Roman Dmitri throws her into great confusion.

If you think about it, why did you go to the Western Front?

It wasn’t just about taking risks, but in Cairo, he was convinced that it was the most suitable place for his development.

however.

Will it still be the same?

no.

The more I think about it, the more I look back on the past.

It showed what was the right choice.

‘Let’s exclude human relationships and choose the best for my own development.’

then.

There was no need to worry any longer.

One week after that.

on the day of the party.

Flora Lawrence met her father in a park where there were few people.

“Flora. Now come back to the family.”

Viscount Lawrence.

With a slightly flushed face from drinking, he spoke the sincerity he had suppressed for so long.

“At first, I wanted to support you in whatever you wanted to do. It was a very irresponsible decision as a father to have you shoulder the burden of your family, and I sincerely supported you because I didn’t know why you wanted to study tactics. But do you know how anxious I spend every time the Kronos Empire invades my borders? Fearing that something might happen to you, this father did not have a comfortable day.”

Western Front.

People call it the death line.

It is a place that others try to avoid at all costs, but Flora Lawrence proudly chose the West of her own will.

My heart burned.

Enduring as a woman on the battlefield was never easy, and remembering the hardships of Lawrence’s golden jade leaf kept bringing tears to my eyes.

So I tried to build a friendly relationship with Dmitri like a dog.

I knew that if something happened, Lawrence alone would not be able to solve the problem.

I saw Flora.

As a father, I couldn’t watch her anymore.

“I won’t stop you from doing what you want to do. I will not force you to marry for convenience, nor will I tell you to live like the women of other aristocratic families. but. Stay at a distance that this father can run in a month.”

told the truth

Flora knew her father’s heart.

But even so, I couldn’t go back to the greenhouse.

“father. I experienced a lot on the Western Front. When I was living in Lawrence, it felt like the entire northeast was the whole world, but in reality it wasn’t like that at all. the northeast area. no Cairo. They are nothing but nothing in the Salamander Continent. The moment the Kronos Empire makes up its mind and declares war, we have no choice but to watch as the ground we have lived in burns and people die.”

Flowers in the greenhouse.

I grew up seeing only the good things in a limited environment.

If she had lived like that, she would have closed her eyes and ears and turned away from reality, but the current Flora couldn’t live like that.

I have seen and heard many things.

this world.

The ever-changing situation implied that peace would not last very long.

“The war has already become a reality. The signals that occur all over the continent tell us that it is a problem that cannot be ignored by ignoring it. father. When that time comes, what will Lawrence do? In the battle against Barko, we couldn’t defend ourselves, so we borrowed the power of Roman Dmitri, but when the war breaks out, we can’t find a force to lean on like we did back then. Because the Kronos Empire wants to conquer the continent. They will wipe out all forces that oppose them.”

Faced reality.

I looked straight ahead without looking away.

in the trials to come.

Flora Lawrence wanted to do something herself.

“So I need to experience as much as possible and develop further, even for that time.”

“Flora… .”

Leaving Kairos.

have already made a decision

Flora Lawrence looked at her father with a pitiful look in her eyes and spoke in a firm voice.

“I’m thinking of joining Dmitry’s army.”

The next day.

Just when the aftermath of the party hadn’t subsided yet, a situation occurred that made Dmitri excited.

A visit from Flora Lawrence.

Chris looked at her and looked embarrassed.

“… If I’m not mistaken, are you saying you want to join Dmitry’s staff now?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

It was a bold statement.

Not only that, Flora Lawrence added:

“What I want is an army directly under Roman Dmitri. In the future war, the existence of a staff member will be absolutely necessary, and I am sure that the Dmitri family is also a necessary talent as I experienced the war on the Western Front. I’m not going to ask you to treat me like a daughter of an aristocratic family. If you use me as a staff member, I will risk my life to serve Dmitri.”

Chris scratched his head.

unexpected situation.

Flora’s future is not a matter for the person to discuss, so he said in a slightly firm voice.

“It’s not for me to decide whether to join Dmitry. Please wait here for now. I can inform you of my intentions by reporting to the lord, but I cannot be sure that he will accept you.”

“all right.”

Flora reacted calmly.

Chris took a step back.

I reported this to Roman Dmitri, but his reaction was different from what I expected.

“Flora Lawrence is a useful resource. If you accept it as a staff member, it will definitely do its job.”

Battle in the West.

She has proven her worth.

In a situation where the West could collapse if Cronus’ attack was wrong, the decision to quickly deal with the wizard led Cairo to an advantage.

Not only that, but it also gave strength to Roman Dmitri’s opinion.

Thanks to this, Roman Dmitri was able to easily push forward with what he thought, and it was an opportunity to reconsider Flora Lawrence, whom he once viewed in a not so good light.

There was no prejudice.

There was a past, but Roman Dmitri judged people based on what he saw and felt.

Current Flora Lawrence.

It was clear that he was a useful figure.

In addition, it was not an easy problem to find such resources from the limited manpower because they were from the northeast region.

“But getting her into Dmitry’s army is another matter. Tell Flora. One week from now. If you join the training schedule and prove that you are the right person for Dmitri-kun, then I will officially accept you.”

“All right.”

Chris took the command.

Chris came out like that.

Ordinary people would see Roman Dmitri’s words as meaning of consent, but his thoughts were a little different.

“… Does that mean you’re actually going to refuse?”

Dmitry’s training.

It’s probably a bit of an arduous time for Flora Lawrence to get through.
