The Heavenly Demon Can’t Live a Normal Life - Chapter 52

Chapter 52 If you started, you must see the end (2)

Moment.

Viscount Barco’s expression twisted into a grim expression.

Roman Dmitry’s comments completely crossed the ‘line’ that should not be crossed even in a hostile relationship.

“Yeah man! How dare you say such a foolish thing about this place!”

Viscount Barko and Roman Dmitry.

The class of status is different.

If Viscount Barco is the head of a family, Roman is only a child from a baron family and has yet to inherit the title.

But looking directly at yourself and spitting out offensive remarks.

Even a toothless tiger could never overlook Roman’s atrocities in front of others.

“OK. tell me what you did wrong You, a vulgar man who does not know the laws of the nobility, would have thought that he could intervene in another’s war for no justification, but that is an action not permitted in the Cairo Kingdom. Why do you think Barco finally declared the Battle of the Territory? According to your logic, it would be enough if Lawrence attacked before he was ready, but we proceeded with this task with the approval of the central government after making a justification according to the law of the nobility.”

War with Lawrence.

It was a plan that took a long time.

Based on forged documents, the conflict was publicized and the cause was emphasized so that no one could intervene in the war.

It was perfect.

Even if you didn’t like Barco’s behavior, there was no room for others to intervene.

But why?

Viscount Barko could not understand why Roman Dmitri appeared on the battlefield.

“The nobles of Cairo are no fools. A war without justification deserves burial in aristocratic society, and I will take issue with your actions and ask the Dmitry family to pay a fair price for it. The Dmitri family cannot avoid that responsibility. No matter how great the prestige of the family, there is a tacit agreement that the neighboring families will unite and destroy the family that violates the laws of the nobility. If you were even a little interested in the history of the aristocracy, you would have known that there were actually many such examples.”

The voice was raised.

Seeing Roman’s calm expression despite his harsh words made me feel even more twisted.

“It is no excuse to say that you did not know the laws of the nobility. Do you understand now? what a stupid thing you’ve done Baron Dmitry will be in great trouble because of you. The Dmitri family, who should have lived peacefully due to the sin of having a son wrong, will be criticized by the nobles of the northeast!”

Quaang!

hit the table

Seeing him get up from his seat and let out a rough breath, Roman just looked up at him.

“Are you done?”

“what?!”

calm voice.

Even in the face of a storm of rage, Roman looked around at the faces of the nobles around him with a relaxed expression.

“Then, from now on, I will tell you why I intervened in the war.”

The atmosphere subsided.

Roman’s sharp voice pierced the ears of the nobles, breaking through the tension that seemed to be careful even with breathing.

“Lawrence and Dmitri were originally engaged to be married. However, for reasons that were not disclosed externally, I decided to break off the engagement, and that’s how I became an idiot who suffered the breakup. What do you think was the reason for the breakup? my reputation? female bias? Or simply because Flora Lawrence simply didn’t like me? All of that is untrue.”

Tuk-tuk.

I tapped the desk with my finger.

People swallowed dry saliva at the sound of scratching their nerves.

“Barco’s eldest son, Anthony Barco, threatened me to break off the engagement.”

“… ?!”

“It’s time to go back to Barco’s social party. I was acquainted with Anthony Barco, and even after promising to marry Lawrence, I attended the party at his invitation. And I fell into a trap. Drunk, I woke up in a room with Barko’s sidekick, Emily Barko, and realized that Anthony Barko had set a trap to separate Lawrence and Dmitri. As expected, Antony Barco threatened to annul his marriage to Lawrence for what had happened.”

in Roman’s words.

The nobles were agitated.

If Roman decided to break off the marriage due to Antony Barco’s threat, the justification for holding Roman accountable has become ambiguous.

‘The moment a private part is revealed, it ceases to be a private part.’

The days when I was walking on thin ice due to the succession of the Demonic Cult.

Baek Joong-hyeok suffered from all sorts of scandals.

Roman Dmitri’s reputation has turned into ridiculous garbage, but Baek Joong-hyeok at that time solved the problem by breaking through the rumors head-on.

what if it’s trash

His people trusted Baek Joong-hyeok, and as he dealt with his enemies one by one, the rumors rising from behind gradually disappeared.

so that.

Roman first blocked the blackmail.

Anyway, he had no reputation to fall further.

As Viscount Barco, he shouted in a huff at the unusual situation.

“gibberish! Do you think you would believe that! Oh yeah, I’ll call Emily Barko right now to confirm it’s true. Everyone knows how trashy Dmitry’s firstborn lived, but your tongues trying to cover up the truth by dismissing it as a threat are truly disgusting.”

“I knew you would say that. If you were someone who would admit the truth, we wouldn’t have met like this. I would like to take this opportunity to clarify a fact. The reason I intervened in the war between Barco and Lawrence was not revenge through blackmail, but for another reason.”

“Another reason… ?”

The more you speak.

Viscount Barco felt like he was sinking into the mud.

The words he said, the attitude he showed, all of them moved like marionettes within Roman’s expectations.

Roman said.

“Everyone knows that Anthony Barco followed Flora Lawrence. In the process, Anthony Barco crossed the line. He tried to harass Flora Lawrence and failed, and Flora Lawrence, shocked by what happened, eventually decided to break off the marriage. The reason for the breakup was that even after going through such a thing, I couldn’t show my face at the wedding with a smile on my face.”

“What is that?!”

“Do you think this is not true either? great. If so, call both Emily Barko and Flora Lawrence to see the truth.”

subverted the point.

Antony Barco fell into a trap with lies.

then.

It’s something you should do the same for yourself.

If Emily Barko lied about Roman’s indecent act, Flora Lawrence can say the same.

truth or not?

It didn’t matter.

Roman’s plan will be perfectly successful as long as there is a justification to break down the opponent’s criticism.

and.

‘In the first place, Antoni Barco said that Flora was molested. He’s crossed the line well enough before the wedding, even if it’s not as high as putting me and Emily Barko in one shot. Even Antony Barco’s father, Viscount Barco, can’t believe the truth because such actions are known to those around him.’

Mixed lies with truth.

finally.

Roman completely stamped his opponent and pressed him down.

“Anthony Barco touched my woman when I promised to marry Lawrence. I would like to ask Viscount Barco and the people gathered here. Do you really think I have no cause to intervene in the war? I intervened in the war only with my personal strength, not borrowing the power of my family. That is the only return I can give her for accepting the breakup without knowing the truth about Flora.”

It was perfect.

The argument was scattered and the justification was won.

Viscount Barco.

he fell into a trap

Viscount Barco was speechless.

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and 50,000 thoughts ran through his complicated mind to find a solution.

‘no method. Roman Dmitri’s justification is perfect.’

Blackmail by Antony Barco.

molestation.

and revenge.

It was a perfect justification.

In addition, Roman intervened in the war with his own strength, thinking that he might take issue with the Dmitri family’s intervention.

In that case, I had nothing to say.

The moment Roman’s justification for avenging Flora Lawrence surfaced, Barco was about to be criticized for backlash.

I felt dizzy.

My mouth was dry.

‘A monstrous fellow. The nobles who tried to help me are shaking at Roman’s words.’

The nobles who visited Barco.

They turned away from Viscount Barco.

If Roman’s words were true, Barco changed his expression as if he would not fall like him because he was a rotten rope.

now.

The truth battle was meaningless.

He knew that Barko would gain nothing by biting down on Emily Barko.

‘There is only one way for Barco to survive. procrastinating time. Rather than giving the other party a perfect justification, we should first avoid this situation and seek a new solution.’

I made an effort to show my face.

As if nothing had happened, Viscount Barko said in a calm tone.

“I don’t think what you say is true. Just as you, who had Dmitri’s reputation as a jerk, deny your relationship with Emily Barko, I don’t think Anthony Barko is any different. So, I will definitely check the truth about this and get back to you. Sorry guys. I didn’t call you for this… … .”

His words were long-winded.

Embarrassed, he grabbed the nobles and tried not to miss the link.

to him

Roman laughed.

half a day ago from now.

Roman recalled his conversation with Chris.

“Are you really going to go to Barco?! That’s suicidal. There is no way Viscount Barco will leave his master alone!”

Roman’s plan.

When Chris heard that he was going to Barco, he was terrified and stopped Roman.

It was natural.

Roman completely ruined Barco’s plan, but hoping that Barco would survive was too much of an expectation.

Roman said.

“chris. What do you think my relationship with Barko will look like in the future?”

“… Barco will think of his master as Cheolcheon’s enemy. If the lord hadn’t interfered, they would have destroyed Lawrence and walked the Tantan Road. But even so, there’s no reason to touch an enemy you have nothing to lose. Fighting should be avoided if possible.”

“no.”

Until he reached the top of the Demonic Cult.

While slaughtering many enemies, Baek Jung-hyeok established an iron rule.

“If you haven’t started, you don’t know, but if you started, you have to see the end. We know that Barco will hold a grudge against me. Then, when they are at stake, this is a good opportunity to root out revenge.”

And now.

Roman looked at Viscount Barco.

“Viscount Barco.”

The gaze was focused.

Viscount Barko, who was calming the nobles with a bewildered face, and the nobles around him also looked at each other, asking what they were trying to say.

looking at them like that

“Choose one from now on. Do you want to end with Antony Barco receiving appropriate punishment for his personal problems and mine, or will you escalate this case with a family matter?”

either way.

Roman thrust the knife under Viscount Barko’s chin.
