The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 346
Chapter 346 A Country That Lost Romance (4)
The Imperial Family in Valhalla.
The leaders were summoned urgently.
While the emperor with a languid expression watched, the Marquis of Belfir placed the box containing the head on the table.
Took.
“Look at this. Count Bragan, who visited Valhalla on behalf of Valhalla, was sent to me by Roman Dmitry with only his head cut off. What does this mean? It’s an obvious declaration of war. It is clear that they intend to join the rebels and attack the Valhalla Empire.”
“… this.”
Everyone frowned.
Most of the leadership reacted in sympathy to the horrible sight and fishy smell seen inside the box.
“I knew it would be like this. Roman Dmitri was a non-negotiable guy from the start.”
“Does this make sense? It’s the continent’s law not to kill messengers representing a country, but Roman Dmitri crossed the line. We must prepare for war immediately. Why don’t we mobilize our forces, wipe out Duke Vieto’s rebellion, and unite with the Kronos Empire to attack Dmitri?”
Anger boiled over.
The act of killing a herald.
In fact, it is a situation where there is nothing to say because Valhalla made a mistake first, but the country called the Empire did not admit its own fault.
It was a typical perpetrator’s logic.
The reason they were angry was the attitude of Roman Dmitri, who did not accept and rejected the Valhalla Empire’s hand first.
It was then.
The conservative Count Gomes, who was observing the situation, came up with a new opinion.
“Why don’t we do it like this instead?”
“Do you have any good ideas?”
“Considering that Roman Dmitri killed Count Bragan and met Sanchez of the rebels before that, it is clear that he joined the rebels with a high probability. The Duke of Vieto is trying to solve the inferiority of power with external power. We’re attacking that right away. If Valhalla’s pure-bloodism is promoted, the public sentiment that currently follows the Duke of Vieto can be taken away at once.”
“That’s a good idea!”
People showed interest.
If only you could do that.
The rebel forces that have lost public sentiment will be wiped out at once without being able to resist.
Count Gomes added.
“The purity of Valhalla is very closed. Unlike Kronos, who accepts many races, Valhalla insists on coming from Valhalla. This is directly related to the context of this rebellion. The people of Valhalla want to restore the roots of Valhalla as a country of warriors, but what would you think if an outside force led the process? It’s the rebel’s dilemma. Since it is a process of recovering the fundamentals, you have to fight for it with your own strength, and if you use their arguments, you can reverse the situation.”
Roman Dmitry.
he made a mistake
By cutting off Count Bragan’s head and sending him off, Valhalla gave the royal family an excuse to seize the pod.
Count Gomes saw the emperor.
“Your Majesty the Emperor. give me a chance We will contact Roman Dmitri and secure convincing evidence to shake public sentiment.”
“I also support Count Gomes’ plan.”
The Marquis of Belfire also put their strength into it.
recent.
Liberals and conservatives took the same view.
At first, Count Gomes was angry at the progress of the progressives who compromised with Cronus, but as the madness of the Emperor of Valhalla intensified, the subordinates had no choice but to join forces.
The Emperor of Valhalla’s gaze turned to Count Gomes.
When Count Gomes responded with a slight wink, he pushed back his chair and stood up.
Sigh.
“Do it yourself.”
annoying talk.
When the Emperor of Valhalla stepped down, the top officials, including Count Gomes, showed a sigh of relief.
“Then we will proceed as planned.”
called the communicator.
Like a spider digging a trap and waiting, Count Gomes’ eyes shone fiercely.

Magic communication has been established.
beyond the screen.
When Roman Dmitri appeared, Count Gomes, who led the plan, spoke first.
“The gift was well received. We sent a nobleman from Valhalla to talk, but was it Dmitri’s way to send him back with just a haircut like this? It seems you made a mistake. With that single choice, Valhalla and Dmitri became irreversible.”
[You sound funny. From the moment you openly tried to kill me,
I had no intention of compromising with Valhalla.
Count Gomes laughed.
It was an expected reaction.
I didn’t think that they would readily accept the conversation if it was enough to send the head of Count Bragan.
“I feel truly sorry. What would have happened if the Earl of Denver had held out his hand to you? Perhaps, with the wings of the Valhalla Empire, it may have already destroyed the Kronos Empire. It’s not that I won’t accept you now. You, barely born in Cairo and reborn as the head of the Kingdom Union, are certainly deserving of our recognition.”
civil war in Cairo.
The Earl of Denver is dead.
Because of that day’s work, Roman Dmitri offended Valhalla.
“But it should be enough for me. Does this world already feel like yours just because you won the war against Cronus once? The reason why Kronos and Valhalla are called the two major mountain ranges of the continent is because they have proven their qualifications in the long history. Whether you are Kronos or Valhalla. None of them should have turned their backs. It means that it was a fatal mistake to side with the Duke of Vieto now that he is plotting a rebellion.”
The conversation flowed naturally.
magic communication.
Recorded a conversation with Roman Dmitry.
If the evidence of his collusion with the Duke of Vieto was secured, he would use that as a basis to steal public sentiment.
“Roman Dmitry. You don’t think you can destroy the Valhalla Empire just because you help Duke Vietto, do you?”
threw the bait
say no more
Observe the opponent’s reaction.
The sharp eyes that are looking for prey will bite the scruff of the neck as soon as it shows the expected reaction.
however.
[Count Gomes. This matter has nothing to do with the Duke of Vieto.]
“… what?”
Cracks appeared on the face.
I didn’t know how to deny it.
From the moment he cut off Count Bragan’s head and sent it off, he thought that the other party had blatantly revealed their intentions.
Roman Dmitry laughed.
[I should have said it clearly. From the moment you openly tried to kill me, I had no intention of compromising with Valhalla. That’s why Count Bragan’s head was cut off and sent. Since I consider you an enemy, I only proved my will through Count Bragan.]
Obvious hostility.
It was a flippant statement.
* * *
Valhalla’s magic communication.
The intention was obvious.
Rather than being angry at the fact that a Valhalla noble had died, he was certain that he would try to use this incident politically.
I don’t mean to criticize myself.
As for the problem between the great powers, cruel things happen like everyday life, but they didn’t intend to obey Valhalla’s intentions.
Count of Bragan.
cut his throat
Through a conversation with Sanchez, Roman Dmitri had told him to do so a week in advance.
[It’s not that important unless you get caught up in a civil war. Right after the Valhalla Festival. At that time, I couldn’t afford to accuse you of a crime due to the war with Kronos, but I changed my mind because of your disrespectful attitude toward Dmitri. From now on, I will make a suggestion to you. If you accept my offer, I will acknowledge your sincerity and try to improve our relationship with Valhalla.]
Count Gomes was speechless.
personal revenge.
With that one word, the point was completely dispelled.
The trap has lost its meaning.
The Valhalla Empire actually intended to murder Roman Dmitri, and there was a lot of talk within Valhalla due to the events related to him.
Why did you let the great warrior who participated in the festival die?
Since it was an incident that many people have already sympathized with and criticized, the death of Count Bragan cannot be held responsible if it is claimed to be revenge for the incident.
Rather, the Valhalla Empire fell into a dilemma.
[There is only one way to reverse the relationship. The Emperor of Valhalla should come and ask for forgiveness from me.]
“You dare this bastard!”
“Where are you spouting such nonsense!”
Moment.
The nobles vented their anger.
A direct apology from the Emperor of Valhalla.
It was unbelievable.
The Valhalla Emperor is not the kind of person who would accept such an offer, and if an apology were to happen, the status of the Valhalla Empire would fall to the ground.
It was incomparable to Cronus’ truce negotiations.
Count Gomes did not hide his simmering anger at the offer he had explicitly refused.
“Roman Dmitry. Do you really mean to see the end with us?”
[I told you.]
He was cocky.
From beginning to end, Roman Dmitry never showed any courtesy toward the powerful in Valhalla.
[I have no intention of compromising with you. As of this time, Dmitri will officially declare the Valhalla Empire as an enemy.]
Negotiations break down.
After that, communication was cut off one-sidedly.
* * *
Silence fell.
An aristocrat from Valhalla said in a confused voice.
“… Is it true that we have just declared war against the Valhalla Empire?”
My voice trembled.
Roman Dmitry’s reaction.
Exceeded expectations.
In a situation where you don’t know when you will face the Cronus Empire again, you didn’t know that you would choose a handshake that turned even the Valhalla Empire into an enemy.
This was obviously against Dmitri.
If Kronos and Valhalla joined hands at Roman Dmitri’s cheeky attitude, it wouldn’t be a problem to push Dmitri away.
“Roman Dmitry must have been sincere. He is a man who will remain.”
now that the emperor is gone.
The Marquis of Belfir was the most powerful man in this place.
He was crazy too.
I didn’t want to believe what just happened, but Roman Dmitri’s actions proved his sincerity.
When Cronus got involved in civil war in Cairo.
Roman Dmitry attempted a counterattack with his meager force.
Even though defeating Kronos alone was a great achievement for Cairo, he opened the gates and rushed out to slaughter the enemies.
And the festival of Valhalla.
War with Kronos.
Until recent prisoners of war.
Not once did it conform to common sense.
It was Roman Dmitry who put what was considered reckless into action and even achieved the result of victory.
Count Gomes said.
“… Looks like we’ve fallen into a trap. Roman Dmitri intends to bring this matter to Valhalla and Dmitri. If that happens, even if they openly attack Valhalla, they have the justification of revenge for the past. He’s a really bad boy. Anticipating the fact that we might use Valhalla’s pure-bloodism as a justification, we have made this a separate issue from the rebel faction.”
enemies, but it was great.
Because of this.
The Valhalla Empire is in a dilemma.
Except for Duke Vieto, who was leading the civil war, he had to be wary of Roman Dmitri, who would threaten him from the outside.
said the Marquis of Belfir.
“It is clear that Roman Dmitry will move his troops as a declaration of war. Since Hector is Dmitri’s ally, he will give way so that he can gather troops on the northern border with Valhalla. I don’t think Dmitri actually wants a war with Valhalla. No matter how much he hopes that Duke Vieto’s rebellion will succeed, if he accepts such a sacrifice, he will inevitably become dangerous against the Kronos Empire.”
It was some kind of action.
They would only pretend to threaten by sending troops to the border, but the Valhalla Empire had no choice but to respond.
“We have to send some troops to the northern front. It is enough to have enough troops that Roman Dmitri does not look down on, and the rest of the troops will focus on the south and wipe out the rebels of the Duke of Vieto at once. From now on, it’s a race against time. If we delay even a little bit, we may face some kind of crisis by the rebels and Roman Dmitri.”
The situation has changed radically.
sure thing.
It was a battle in which the Valhalla royal family had no choice but to win.
After crushing the rebels, the Marquis Belfir vowed to pay the price against Roman Dmitri.
“After we clear all the rebels. Even if we contact the Kronos Empire and collude with them, we will make it our top priority to erase Dmitri from the continent. move quickly It is an urgent situation.”
“All right.”
Collusion with Kronos.
That’s what the conservatives were against.
However, Count Gomes, the leader of the conservative faction, did not complain much in this situation.
It was then.
Just as the leaders of Valhalla were about to disperse, a knight from the Imperial Knights hurriedly ran to deliver the news.
“Urgent news! The rebels of the Duke of Vieto have attacked Hernard! They have truly rebelled!”
The rebel’s preemptive strike.
It was truly a series of shocks.
