The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 27

Chapter 27 What Happened at a Social Party (5)

Barco’s knight, Benson, was shocked and unable to accept the reality for a moment.

‘… Did I get slapped?’

My cheeks tingled.

As a member of the Barco family, he could not accept the act of being slapped on the cheek more than the pain.

The opponent’s face was confirmed.

He understands why Roman Dmitri beat him, but Dmitri’s reputation for being a jerk couldn’t contain Benson’s anger.

“Where is this bastard… Kuck!”

Damn!

My head turned once again.

Embarrassed, Benson grabbed his cheek and tried to stop Roman, but Roman’s hand slapped him on the cheek again.

Damn!

Damn! Damn!

once twice three times.

Benson didn’t even have time to fight back.

Roman didn’t stop slapping Benson’s face even though his face didn’t return to its original position, and Benson’s body, which was confident even at first, shrank.

My head was spinning.

The pain outweighed the petty pride, and at the momentary staggering legs, Benson waved his arms and said earnestly.

“Please… !”

It hurt.

It hurt so much.

Even though he lived a life accustomed to suffering, Roman’s touch had the power to make people helpless.

Only then did I know

that you made a mistake.

But Roman didn’t give me a chance to apologize or give me a chance to make an excuse.

Even though the aristocrats at the party began to gather at the commotion outside, they slapped Benson in the face countless times with cold faces.

blood splatter

teeth are out

The staggering leg fell to its knees, and Benson was holding Roman’s leg with his tousled hair.

situation getting serious.

Belatedly, Kevin and Chris stopped it.

“Lord!”

“This is enough punishment! Your opponent is a knight of Barco. Considering our relationship with them, I think it would be good to end it like this!”

The subordinates are right.

They spat out advice, but Roman glanced at them with a bloody face and said:

“I decide the standard of sufficient punishment. Chris Kevin. What punishment do you think deserves the punishment of a knight who gossips about me, Dmitri’s eldest son? Even if this guy died due to violence, it’s just the price of the words he said. There is no excess.”

Roman.

There was no benevolent lord.

Benson crossed the line set by Roman, and it revealed the cruelty of the Heavenly Demon a little bit.

Experienced sociability and heart for subordinates.

These are elements necessary to maintain power, but in the end, there are things to protect for a solid throne.

One hundred punishments.

It was an obvious standard of punishment.

Roman was showing how to deal with those who crossed the line in front of everyone.

And once again.

The moment he grabbed Benson’s face and was about to slap him.

“What the hell is this!”

Anthony Barco.

he appeared

sight in front of your eyes.

I couldn’t believe it.

Roman Dmitry dared to punish a knight of the Barko family in front of everyone at Barko’s social party.

It was a superpower.

With a face that looked like it would explode at any moment, Antony Barko shouted.

“Roman! No matter how much you are the eldest son of the Dmitri family, it is absolutely unacceptable to touch a knight of the Barco family. So stop that behavior right away and apologize directly for your rude behavior!”

Conversation in the locker room.

forgot

They bowed their heads for mutual interests, but being openly ignored in the living room was not a problem that could be tolerated.

A glance at himself and Roman alternately. An expression of interest appeared on the faces of the breathless nobles, and Antony Barco gave strength to his voice.

he thought

Roman crossed the line.

Now, he says he has the right to be angry.

however.

“Why should I apologize?”

Roman was not agitated.

Still clutching Benson’s head, he looked at Anthony Barco and said coldly.

“As I left the party, I heard Barco’s knight gossip about me. While talking about the subject, he made remarks that disparaged the Dmitri family. And, in front of my eyes, he dared to put his hand on the face of a member of the Dmitry family. Anthony Barco. Do you really think I was wrong?”

“… Even so, this crosses the line!”

“line. It is good.”

food.

The opponent also knew.

That this is Benson’s responsibility.

Even so, the reason why he couldn’t back down was not because of his intention to protect Benson, but because of the gaze around him.

Please step away just once.

Despite Anthony Barco’s gaze asking him to save face, Roman did not follow his intentions at all.

“I said it while talking to you in the locker room. I don’t know how the relationship between the two of us and the relationship between the two of us and even the family will go wrong due to personal grudge. You’d better be clear about your attitude towards me from now on. In the future, will we keep the same relationship as we have now or will we run at each other like we’re going to eat each other like four hot faces. My patience isn’t as great as I thought. So decide your attitude now.”

People around were perplexed.

At first, I didn’t know that what I thought was a simple trouble would spread to a problem that brought up the family.

It was what Roman intended.

Roman in his lifetime was an idiot.

An idiot who is not treated properly outside even with the powerful Dmitri family in the Northeast area on his back.

It cannot be said that it is the responsibility of others.

It was Roman Dmitri’s fault for not using his strengths, and Roman wanted to rectify that fact now as he started a new life.

‘My name is Roman Dmitri.’

The eldest son of the Dmitry family.

He showed everyone that he was a man who could spit out such rude remarks against Barco.

Benson.

He was just an excuse.

From the first step into Barco’s social party, Roman was looking for an opportunity to prove his worth, just as he had won the favor of the surrounding nobles through conversation.

It shouldn’t be intentional.

In a situation that stems from the opponent’s mistake, Roman bites Benson’s mistake like a hyena looking for prey.

teeth bared

Anthony Barco could not hide his bewilderment at Roman’s bloody spirit.

‘Damn it.’

Roman’s enmity.

gaze around.

In my heart, I wanted to fight together.

But if you do, you can’t undo your mistakes.

It would not be a lie to say that he knew that Roman had changed through a conversation in a closed room, and that family relations could be strained due to personal grudges.

What if that happens? It was a one-sided loss to Barco.

With a little bit of patience, Lawrence’s fertile land and Flora Lawrence could be obtained.

very little

Antony Barco fell into self-justification.

Ignoring the gaze of those around me, I thought I had no choice but to choose one option.

He said.

“… Come to think of it, you are right. If Dmitri’s knight had spoken ill of me in front of me and had touched a member of the Barko family, I would have been punished in the same way. It is absolutely our fault.”

took a step back

While bending his pride, he added a meaningless excuse, saying that he would have been in the same situation.

That was it.

Roman smiled and pulled Benson’s hair forward.

“Is that what you think?”

Needless to say more.

As Benson’s terrified gaze turned to him, Roman pressed his head to the floor and said,

“Bite your teeth tight.”

at that point.

Benson closed his eyes tightly.

As a result, Benson was carried away on a stretcher.

His face was covered in blood from how beaten he was, and where he had been, there were fragments of his teeth and blood.

The party is over.

Roman left the party with Chris and Kevin, wiping the blood from his hands with a handkerchief.

the way back to the estate.

Kevin, who had followed Roman silently, said with the face of a high-dealer.

“… sorry. Because of me, the lord suffered hardships.”

It was disastrous.

If you were a knight like Chris.

Barco’s knights wouldn’t quarrel, and Roman wouldn’t get caught up in useless work.

Chris added.

“I’m sorry too. Even though the Dmitri family was insulted when they saw Kevin beaten, they did not respond. If you are punished for this incident, I will accept the punishment and make sure that this does not happen in the future.”

Chris has power.

Even so, he endured for Roman’s sake.

If Roman had known that he would be angry enough to be hostile to Barco, he would have drawn his sword and fought from the start.

widely.

I stopped walking.

Roman looked back at his subordinates and spoke in a calm tone.

“You made the best choice for you. It wouldn’t have been easy to endure, but thank you for patiently waiting.”

this day.

It is not the responsibility of the two.

On the surface, the Barko family is powerful, and Roman Dmitri has no power to treat them carelessly.

If Roman wasn’t ready and had a fight with the Barco family, he might have faced a bad situation in front of everyone.

Chris and Kevin knew that.

Although he acknowledged the power of Roman, he endured even when his self-esteem was hurt because his position as a force was unstable.

but.

That’s not to say it wasn’t a perfect response.

“Hamminess causes anger. Your choice could avoid the worst, but it wasn’t the answer I wanted. In the future, study the basis for judging how to behave when someone spits in your face. Then there will be nothing like today. At least in the northeastern part of Cairo Kingdom, there won’t be anyone who dares to spit on the Dmitri family and have to endure it.”

when living at the bottom.

Baek Joong-hyeok was powerless.

That’s why he used tools and smashed the head of the head with a stone to become the king of the 12 caves.

It was different then and now.

When you don’t have the power, you can do anything, but when you shoulder the power, the choices you make cost the lives of your comrades.

so that.

I had to know how to differentiate between times.

If it wasn’t the right time, he showed a smile, and when he judged the time was right, he cut off the opponent’s throat without hesitation, even if it was judged reckless.

In the process, he crossed many dead lines.

Chris and Kevin’s judgment was the best for them, but if they knew ‘how to distinguish the time’, they wouldn’t have been patient today.

Barco family.

Or Blood Fang.

If you accurately grasp Dmitri’s strength, they are no problem even if they cross the line.

and.

“Even if you have to endure the opponent, keep the opponent’s face clearly in your eyes. There is a difference between simply holding back and bowing your head helplessly. You must not lose the venom in your eyes as you will surely trample the opponent at any time. I’m not the kind of person who can stand having someone climb on top of me. I will have to adapt to the way I am going to live a life that puts everyone under my feet.”

this moment.

Chris and Kevin thought.

Roman Dmitry.

He is a man who must live a reigning life.

In order to become a person who suits him, you should not try to be in the line of common sense that others think.

Roman walked ahead.

Chris and Kevin followed.

Looking at Roman’s reliable back, the two men’s footsteps felt more solid trust than at the beginning.

Heavenly Demon God.

The forces that dominated an era in Murim were slowly taking shape here in the Cairo Kingdom.
